General Geoffrey
[16 years (continued): Later, you hear the news that the representatives sent by the school didn't even make it past the competition pools. All were easily defeated by other students who weren't even favorites. As a result, the respect of viscount and count's children throughout the school suddenly increased towards you! For they knew the strength of the count and the other representatives! So, from their point of view, reaching the final, and on top of that, achieving this feat at just 14 years of age really deserved respect. Especially as Prince Henry's reputation exploded this year after he reawakened his talent as a master of jewels, and showed off his fighting skills on various battlefields. Some even began to boast of the time you had held against the prince, for few in the Kingdom and at the same stage as the prince could withstand him for so long].
[16 years (ended) : You also learn from your roommates, with whom you've woven strong bonds over the past 10 years, that it was because you had the talent of a jewel master that the attitude of the children of viscounts and counts had completely turned around. Without it, they'd still despise you. You're not disappointed, because you don't intend to make friends with them].
[17 years : Because you are stronger than any of the instructors, and your handling skills were more than respectable, you are hired by the school as an instructor, and begin leading group training and teaching the school children. At first, there were many students who disagreed, but they didn't dare show it in front of you because you were too intimidating in their minds. So, before long, it was the parents who came to the school gates to ask the principal to change his mind! For them it was a disgrace that their children were being taught by the illegitimate child of a baron!]
[17 years (continued): The scene was truly extraordinary: counts and counts from all walks of life were at the school gates! There were many barons, but most had actually come to support you, albeit discreetly. Indeed, your reputation among the lower nobility was truly excellent].
[17 years (continued): Among the counts and viscounts, there were many jewel masters who had decided to reveal their strength to put pressure on the academy. You're young and hot-blooded, so you exit through the school gates under the stunned gazes of parents, teachers, instructors and the principal. Then you directly challenge all the guards who had accompanied these counts and viscounts, saying that since they weren't convinced, you were going to convince them with your own strength.
[17 years (continued): This shocked the nobles even more, but at the same time made them laugh. They seriously believed that the school tournament in the empire was just a child's game, and that their elite guards who had participated in countless battles could easily take down even the champions. Only the instructors and principal didn't laugh, and even smiled at the thought of watching a good show for free].
[17 years (continued): You take on a random guard, but all the nobles were getting ready to watch a show because here, no guard was ordinary, all were ferocious men! But to everyone's surprise, you easily take him down with a single movement. The instructors and principal applauded joyfully, while the parents of the students suddenly began to take you seriously. The parents of your roommates also applauded with big smiles].
[17 years (continued): A guard of Count Terro, named Geoffrey stepped out of the ranks. This guard was also the general-in-chief of Count Terro's army! Of course, he wasn't a master of the jewels, as they were all incorporated into elite units, their strength too great to remain safely in the rear. But that didn't mean that the army leaders of powerful nobles were weak - quite the contrary! They were even rarer talents than the jewel masters, and their fighting power was beyond doubt].
[17 years (continued): You fight a fierce duel with General Geoffrey before the bewildered eyes of the crowd. This time, even the instructors and the director looked at you like a demon. You're dominated in almost every way, whether it's mentality, weapon mastery or combat agility, but your strength was simply too staggering. General Geoffrey couldn't find a real weakness to exploit in your fighting skills, because all of them could be compensated for by your extraordinary strength. Every sword blocked by its own sword made the general's hands ache. After a while, the general could hold his sword no longer, and it flew away after one last collision. But out of respect for this general, you don't point your sword at him and tell him to give up. Instead, you hold out your hand and congratulate him on his fighting strength. Everyone applauds, the academy staff with joy and pride, most of the nobles with sincerity and only a few out of respect for General Geoffrey].
[17 years (continued): Many relatives came to meet you, introduced themselves and said a few kind and flattering words. In particular, that your Inuit family would rise thanks to you! Count Terro also said a few kind words and invited you to drop by any time on his territory, and that you'd certainly be welcomed. He discreetly whispered that if your father was short-sighted, he himself would not be. He'll give you a very good position in his army and plenty of resources to become a powerful jewel master!]
"Inuit, is that my surname in this simulation? Interesting."
[17 years (ended) : After these events, all the children were reprimanded by their parents, more or less severely. But the common thread in their parent's advice was, "Above all, don't offend him, or even Dad won't be able to protect you!". You become an untouchable person in the school, and your martial arts classes are even requested by many young nobles, especially those aged 12 to 15, who idolize you and take you as their objective].
[18 years : The long-awaited moment of awakening finally arrives].
[18 years (continued): You are sent to the Royal Academy of the Empire, reserved for jewel masters, the place where all the best talents in the kingdom are trained].
