Lucien read through each class, with their accompanying skills. When he reached Andre's, however, he could not help but stop. The boy had managed to awaken 3 classes at once.
Lucien found it absurd. According to the information he just gathered from the system, the lifestyle certificates do not have a fixed class; they only awaken any class that resonates deeply with the user, and awakening multiple classes was possible, but rare.
"I need to keep him safe,' Lucien muttered, identifying the talent of the boy.
"Liam and Tiara, there are 3 wolves near the barrier, go kill them," he ordered, not caring how they executed it.
"Yes, my Lord," they said. Their grips tightened on their weapons, things that appeared on their hands as they changed class.
For Liam, it was a Sword and Shield, for Tiara, it was a bow, and a quiver filled with 10 arrows.
With hurried steps, they walked towards the edge of the domain, eyes locked on the wolves. From behind, Lucien and the non-combatants stood back, only following the soldiers with their eyes.
"Tiara, go from the other side," Liam said.
Tiara nodded, understanding his strategy. She phased through the barrier without restriction. The wolves saw her appear a few meters away from them.
Without even thinking, they lunged at her, their tongues sticking out of their mouths savagely.
The distraction was all Liam needed. As they charged, he jumped out of the barrier, sword coming down in a devastating strike. He caught the unlucky wolf by surprise, decapitating its head cleanly.
Before the wolves could even turn back, he jumped into the barrier again. The air whistled with a deadly rhythm as an arrow plunged deep into one of the wolves' eyes. The power was not enough to kill it, but the wolf shrieked from the pain. Before it could even collect itself, another arrow pierced its side, then another.
Tiara shot all the arrows in her quiver before the wolf finally died.
The last wolf howled, then, in a fury, lunged at Tiara. Crimson marks began to glow on its body as it moved.
Liam was ready. He burst out of the barrier, intercepting the wolf with his shield. Swiftly, he swung his sword.
Blood splattered, dying the earth red as the wolf's head fell.1
With mechanical precision, Liam carried the wolf's corpse into the domain. Tiara followed after, removing all her arrows from the skewered wolf, before carrying it in.
Liam carried the last one, too, then they bowed before Lucien.
Lucien stared at the corpses at his feet, but more at the status screen in front of him.
[Item: Tier 0 dire wolf's corpse]
[Do you want to loot?]
"Loot," he whispered.
Instantly, a blinding light was released from the 3 corpses, then they vanished. In their place were the loots.
[1.5 kg meat, 3 liters of water, 30 energy points, 3 wolf hides]
Lucien nodded at the yields, but he could not help but frown as a thought crept up. "How will I keep them?" He muttered. "I will worry about that later. I need to deal with these messages too."
"Harold, I am going into the manor, work with Tiara and Liam to gather wood to cook the meat," Lucien ordered, then walked into the manor.
They all bowed until they saw Lucien enter the manor fully. Without hesitation, they got to work.
Lucien entered the manor, taking in the sight. The manor had two doors that led to different places.
One was a bedroom, which had a small wooden bed, an orb that floated in a corner, a chair, and a table.
The other was a small room with some shelves. "This should be a storage room," he guessed.
[Storage room: Tier 1]
[Description: Can store any item at its normal quality for 3 days]
He walked into the bedroom first. There were things he had to handle first.
"System, open the new messages," he ordered.
[Lord has killed his first enemy and unlocked the full Lord authority.]
[You have unlocked access to Global chat, Lord shop, Global Shop, and your relative will be joining you soon]
Lucien read the words calmly, but he could not help but furrow his brows when he saw the last words. "I don't have any relatives, I am the only child, and my parents are dead. Is this a glitch?'
But the system did not reply. A blinding light shone on the screen, and new tabs appeared on the system screen.
Shortly after, a tremor passed through the room, and a person was now there, a young boy barely 16.
[You are the 2nd Lord to summon their relative, and a talent orb has been granted to your relative.] The system added, before an orb appeared in Lucien's hands again.
"So, you are Lucien," the boy said, his tone cold and aloof. He did not even care about the age difference; he spoke like Lucien was an age mate.
"Who are you?" Lucien asked.
"Your brother," the boy answered, plainly, not even looking at Lucien. He scanned the room, noting every part of it.
"I don't remember having a brother," Lucien said.
"So, you don't even remember your mother was pregnant before she got into an accident."
At those words, Lucien's eyes shrank. It had been so long that he had forgotten about it. "I did not know she was able to give birth," Lucien said.
"Well, she gave birth, and here I am."
A tear rolled down Lucien's face. He did not even know what got into him; he jumped at the boy to hug him.
"You are squeezing me," the boy yelled.
"I was only happy, is something wrong with that?" Lucien said, walking back to the bed to sit. "You can sit beside me," Lucien gestured to his side.
"I will rather sit here," the boy muttered, going to the wooden chair.
