Chapter 02 (Part Two)

"It's fine, young master can take a rest today. Tomorrow we will board the ship to Moon City. There are still twenty days until the Month of Planting, so we have plenty of time!" Ge Bi said seriously, "It won't delay your reporting to Moon Academy."

"Who?" came the voice of Gobi from inside.

Brother, you go ahead with your own things; I can eat by myself.

"Young Master Anien, what is snow sugar?"

Basic data output, memory cell regeneration, comprehensive analysis and organization of all knowledge, final adjustments to the body, expected to awaken in seven hours and forty-eight minutes, in order to conserve energy, ... H-3553 biochemical intelligence brain automatically enters a state of slumber ...

Having consumed all the fresh fish soup and bread, Anien lay back on the bed, pondering that everyone actually has an excellent memory, yet the things that can truly be remembered and utilized are quite few. Now, however, under meticulous circumstances, all the information Anien had seen and studied over the past fifteen years was vividly present, and with a slight activation, it was sorted just like classified data.

Young Master Anien, it seems you have nothing else to attend to

Yes, Nabila has started cultivating beets to obtain sugar. Although this year's yield is only 200 pounds, the profit constitutes half of all profits

If all goes as expected, the total revenue will be 2,500 gold coins. This figure has been calculated for quite some time, and when the young master inquired, it was stated directly.

On the following morning, when the sun had already risen high in the sky, Anien Fenokashu awoke to find himself no longer on the ship, but in a small bed on land. At the slightest sound, a middle-aged man entered, his dignified yet slightly cheerful expression indicating that he was in a very good mood

"This cargo, after being sold, is mostly my tuition fees from these past few years, isn't it?" Anien asked directly without any hesitation, showing no signs of embarrassment.

The largest profit among them is probably from sugar, Anien asked

With the reading in memory, Anien could not help but feel grateful that he had taken over this body on this ship, and that he was in a remote ocean. In this world, there are many individuals who are very sensitive to energy, even to souls, such as the mages and priests, who might detect the current disharmony between Anien's spirit and body within forty days. However, this issue need not be taken too seriously, as both the body and spirit are undergoing metabolism. Once the forty days have passed, the spirit and body will become one, and no one will be able to sense any abnormalities.

Oh, what is it? Young master, please feel free to give your orders.

The 42-year-old Baron Nabira had a brief marriage with an elven woman, reportedly officiated and blessed by Iniya, which resulted in their offspring. However, given that elves have a lifespan of a thousand years, a 42-year-old Baron Nabira could not accompany her for long. Consequently, he has now married a human woman and has had two daughters and a son.

The 20th day of the Month of Planting is two months from now, and today is only the 9th, which gives us 70 days, more than enough. For a body taken over, the integration of spirit and flesh requires a solid period of 40 days. However, let's first activate the memory bank, as this is the most critical task.

The marriage with the elves has its background; otherwise, Baron Nabira would merely be an insignificant knight without the substantial financial and human resources to colonize and establish a castle. Thus, only I am recognized as the heir by Iniya and Moon City, which solidifies my position. My elven mother guided me for two years, teaching me elvish language and basic knowledge, as well as elven swordsmanship and the fundamentals of becoming a mage. Now, she seems to have disappeared to who knows where; some elves have a tendency to wander. Anien Fenokashu's visit to Moon City this time is also for further studies, as Moon City is one of the magical cities in the North, where he will receive limited care and privileges.

After speaking, it was not surprising to discover cracks in the mask on Gobi's stern face

This world is already completely different from the original one. He even doubts that this is still a single universe, where there are gods, magic, dragons, and demons. While gods are rare, this world contains powerful beings known as elect, who have long lifespans and immense strength. For instance, the individual from Moon City is an elect of the goddess of the moon and the magic web, Mengqimeisi. According to legend, she is also the daughter of Mengqimeisi, named Iniya. One hundred and fifty years ago, she established Moon City in the northern lands. After more than a century of development, Moon City has become one of the largest cities in the north, controlling hundreds of villages and towns, subtly trending towards nation-building and kingship. Although Iniya is now referred to as the Moon Queen, there is, in fact, no formal national structure or organization for her kingdom. She directly controls only Moon City, while the other villages and towns are merely vassals, not formally integrated into a hierarchical administrative relationship with the state.

Gobi's expression changed slightly, but he still said nothing. He directly took a small package from the table and opened it. This was what he used for making tea. Upon opening it, it was indeed as Anien had predicted, a murky brown sugar. He then nodded and said, "I have a method to transform this into snow sugar. If offered to high-class families, the price could increase fivefold."

Anien stood up. Although the diligent Goby would bring lunch to him from https://wwwhetushucomcom, he did not have to wait like that. His father, Baron Nabira, was originally just a knight and did not understand management. The various matters within the territory were actually handled by Goby, the steward, who came from a collateral branch of the continental nobility. It was essential not to neglect him, as maintaining a good relationship with him would be quite beneficial for Anien.

His father was a warrior from Moon City, who once rose to the position of captain in the Crescent Guard. It is said that he had a romantic involvement with Iniya, which is not impossible considering Iniya's complete inheritance of the goddess Montimess's flirtatious nature. However, mortals, especially humans, age quickly. After serving for twenty years, he grew old. Iniya, remembering his loyalty and the bond they shared, specially granted him the title of Baron and supported him with a substantial sum of money, allowing him to establish a colony on Nabira Island, not far from the sea. This transformed the 400 square kilometers of Nabira Island into the hereditary territory of the Fenokash family, with the title of Baron of Nabira.

It is me

Ah, it is the young master. Please wait a moment, I will bring your lunch right away. Your health is still weak, so I specifically instructed to prepare some fresh soup for you. The door to Gobi's room was opened, and the room was not particularly good; it was somewhat inferior compared to my own room. This detail reflects Gobi's meticulousness regarding etiquette. However, the room was tidily organized, and there was a stack of documents on the table.

Thinking of this, his slightly fatigued expression indeed prompted Ge Bi to say: "Young Master, come, have something to eat, and then rest for a while."

Yet all the prayers, all the cries, all the pleas for help, have not been conveyed. A fragile yet unbreakable shield has isolated this small soul from all external connections. Finally, this white little soul revealed a look of despair; its transparent body has already vanished by half, and the rate of this disappearance is rapidly spreading

How much is there?

However, as a half-elf, I have a lifespan of about 200 years, which exceeds that of an ordinary human by more than double. This is indeed an unexpected joy, as the benefits of a long life are invaluable. I am only 15 years old now, which is still considered an infant among elves, and for half-elves, I have barely lived one-tenth of my life. A long life still awaits me

H-3553 Biochemical Intelligence Brain Execution Command, absorb original soul energy, reconnect the nervous system, neural signals are accepted, the physical body and soul are successfully connected, rejection reaction is weak, ... analyze memory data, excess energy conversion, physical energy storage, mental energy storage, read memories ... ... Anien Fenokashu, my name is Anien Fenokashu

"Ge Bi, I am fine, I just drank a bit too much and caught a breeze." Anien's youthful face showed a hint of shyness: "I won't do this again in the future"

Can you show it to me? Anien said earnestly

Anien Fenokashu's life was not long, and the knowledge and materials he accumulated were limited. Three hours later, Anien archived all these memories and materials, organizing everything in an orderly manner. The brain cells generated memories and formed a backup area. Unfortunately, the H-3553 biochemical intelligence brain automatically entered a dormant state, as it could only rely on the body's electrical current for energy. Consequently, the lack of energy restricted it to performing only basic analysis and query functions

Just as he was lost in thought, the noise from below had already reached him. Unbeknownst to him, it was already noon. Anien smiled, realizing that he needed to integrate into this world. His attitude towards life was quite simple—enjoying life is the essence of existence. As for the original charming Anien, he had been replaced by himself.

The reason for using this method is twofold: first, to increase income through the addition of graphic books; second, to buy time. Only on this isolated island, devoid of mid-level and high-level priests and mages, can he safely endure the forty-day fusion phase. He does not wish to encounter any mid-level or high-level priests or mages who might detect the anomalies in the energy within his body as soon as he lands.

Yes, apart from the necessary supplies and expenses for the round trip on the ship, as well as costs, everything else is directly at your disposal, young master. This has long been established," Ge Bi replied earnestly.

"No, Mr. Gobi, I have something to discuss with you." Anien was still quite polite

Especially regarding the possession that occurred yesterday, if there had been any mage or priest present, they would have been able to detect something unusual. Unfortunately, there was not a single mage or priest on the ship, which truly was a stroke of luck for oneself

What was served was fresh fish soup and bread. Although simple, it was exactly what was needed at the moment. Ge Bi heard this and responded with an acknowledgment, putting down his things and heading out. He was quite busy; since the sea route below was entirely close to the coast, the waves were relatively small, allowing for a greater carrying capacity. He planned to utilize the empty space on the ship to procure some local products from Luokaya Island. Although the profit for transporting goods to Bushen Port was only about 5% due to the short distance of just three days, it was still a profit. The young master was counting on this profit for his expenses in Moon City over the next few years, so having a little more would be beneficial.

Anien got up, put on his clothes, and he knew that Goby, the butler, came from a noble background and paid considerable attention to demeanor and attire. Therefore, he dressed meticulously and walked next door, knocking on the door

"A high-quality sugar, once produced, you will understand." A hint of amusement flashed through Anien's mind. The extraction of the so-called snow-white sugar from brown sugar is nothing more than active carbon filtration. The production of active carbon is merely the high-temperature carbonization of wood-based materials. This basic physical principle has its continuity; although the universe is different, this point can still be confirmed as effective.
