Chapter 9 New Start

"Young lord, are you ready?" Vahriz said standing behind a box with his hand on its lock.

I grinned and nodded.

"Go!" He unlocked the door and something leaped fast towards me.

"Whoa!"

I flip on my left side to dodge the thing and used my Appraisal skill.

Well, that's a powerful foe.

"Go, go, my son!" My mother cheered from distance standing alongside my father and my maid Sidri.

"Don't lose focus. Teach that mongrel a lesson." Father also added with a straight face. What a tsundere.

"Your highness, you are not allowed to get hurt!" Sidri also shouted with concern in her eyes. She was like my second mother to me. Like my parents, I like her and respect her.

It has already been a year since I came to this world or I gain consciousness. There many skills that I gained during this time.

[Sword E++: The lowest level of mastery of blades.]

[Archery C+: Mastery over marksmanship with 90% chance of perfect shot and accuracy over a distance of 15 meters.]

[Babylonian Casting C++: Special way of casting that belongs to court mages of Babylon. It increases the speed of casting and power of attacks if you are in Babylon by 20%. It also increases the effectiveness of supporting magic on citizens of Babylon by 15 %.]

[Riding E: Skill to ride normal animals like a horse.]

[Intuition E+: Natural skill to act upon upcoming bad times and allows you to take measures. It also helps to observe surrounding up to 5 meters of diameter nullifying the effects of lower Presence Concealment skill.]

That's the gist of the story. I have trained in many ways but the best I was good at was archery and casting. Archery was like my plus point as I have a very good sense of aiming. I also progressed rapidly in casting learning different kinds of magic.

The only thing that didn't develop was my blade mastery. Why do you ask? Simple, I couldn't carry a sword with my tiny hands. I could only swing daggers efficiently.

I also gained Riding skill when father took me on a ride outside the city. I was also given chance to leave the castle but a very limited number of times. Father said that once I complete another test, I will be given the freedom to leave the city as well as announced as the Prince of Uruk officially. I may be a prince but I didn't have any say in the office.

By the way, the city of Uruk is said to be the richest city in the entire known continent. There were one goldmine and silver mine and one coal mine owned by the city. I don't know what type of skills my parents possess but I could guarantee that one of them has Golden Rule.

Anyway, today is my final training session before the test. I have to kill the Horned Rabbit which is half as big as me in length with a 4 inches long horn on his head.

Kyuee!

Rabbit screamed as its eyes gleamed red. It is similar to Mad Enhancement skill but it is a hidden attribute that my appraisal didn't show. It is called a Demonic Attribute where a monster becomes demonic if it is exposed to dark magic.

I took out a small knife from my waist and became alerted to strike at the weak point.

It screamed again and dashed towards me.

Swish* slice*

I dodged in time and cut the joint of his back leg.

Kyueee!

It screamed in pain but didn't back down. It was the effect of a Demonic Attribute where the monster continues to attack even when wounded unless it is of a higher level and could control his senses.

"Hahaha, it is time to end it but in my own style!"

I smirked and took out my bow and arrow.

"Oi! Strike me if you can!" I shouted and showed my butt.

[Taunt E: Gain attention of low-level demonic beast.]

Kyuee!

It dashed again but with a little slower speed because of the wound. I also ran towards a tree near me. Taking advantage of my reflexes, I used my legs to climb on the tree while stretching the arrow on my bow. Horned Rabbit stopped just a few inches away from the tree and glared at me when I flipped on the tree and aimed at Horned Rabbit in the air.

Swish* splash*

I shot the arrow that flew and pierced the eye of the Horned Rabbit that came out from the other side of the eye socket.

Kyuee…*

It moaned one last time in pain then fell on the ground lifelessly. I also landed on the ground and rolled to reduce force direct force on my legs. I stood up without getting hurt. I then took out the arrow from Rabbit's eyes, wipe the blood, and put back it in my pouch.

[Ding! Level up from 10 to 11]

"Great!" I smiled but suddenly my senses screamed of danger.

"My babieee!"

Acting on my Intuition skill and my A Luck, I ducked.

Bam*

"Ahh!"

That danger was none other than my mother who launched herself to hug me but I dodged and she bumped on the tree.

"Good work son!" Father came forward and rubbed my head. I smiled and nodded.

"You are prodigy as an archer, your highness." Vahriz also complimented.

"Let me clean your highness." Sidri came forward and rub the dirt on my face with her scarf.

"Thank you, Miss Sidri. You will become my good wife." I said with a teasing smile.

"P-please don't joke your highness. I-I already have a daughter…!" Sidri said and blushed.

Father and I laughed in sync while Sidri became more flustered and Vahriz shook his head with a smile. All of us then left for lunch.

"What about me…?"

Celia cried and said since all of us forget about her.

"By the way, this year's harvest will also be enough to serve for the entire winter. Who would have thought that animal shit has this much effectiveness?" Father said munching food.

"Mind your language. We are eating!" Mother reprimanded father. Even if he is a king, in front of his mother, he is a pussy cat.

I once went to a village with my father where I saw people working in fields. I knew that this is the period of early times so I made some bullshit story and introduced the method of fertilizer. First, the farmers opposed this idea since they have to deal with animal waste but when they see the result I became a hero. My charisma was also upgraded to D+.

We talked for a while until it was time to sleep. I went directly to bed since tomorrow's father will take my test.

This is a long-ass status. Many skills have been upgraded over the year. I am not OP but as a kid, I am still stronger than the average person.

To be honest, I sometimes miss my world where everything was very fast and life was comfortable. Manga, anime, food, electronics like TV and most importantly internet, I miss all of them but I enjoyed my life here more. I have something that people could only dream of. I am a prince, I have parents and I have a system too to help me as Gilgamesh, the strongest servant in the fate franchise (for me) even if I am nerfed for the moment.

I sighed with a smile and closed my eyes to enter the dreamland and spent time with my future harem.

(AN: I didn't want to drag this childhood arm where the protagonist becomes op from the beginning. I have already created some op MCs and I know that it won't work this time too so instead of going OP from the beginning and shooting GOB, I am making MC suffer a little.

Again this novel is going to be a kingdom of warfare where I will share from the different king of view. I would try my best to focus only on MC and his close people but even I won't, constructive criticism is welcome.)

---

Again I apologize for a time skip. I just don't want to waste time in childhood training arc. If something then this novel will be a story oriented than training arcs.
