The Soul wanderer （part 2）

Although the old knight didn't gain further merits in the battles, the wealth he earned through bloodshed was enough for young Edward to live a decent life. His mother had passed away early, and Old Fleyg was very eager to provide a better life for his child. Young Edward was also very sensible.

Although he had some of the vices of noble children, he was generally a good child. More importantly, he was hardworking. Although it was unknown whether he had the talent for Dou Qi, meaning "Dou Qi," which refers to a type of internal energy or aura in martial arts), it was quite good that he had reached the level of a third-level knight's martial arts skills at the age of seventeen.

If he could awaken his Dou Qi, and after some trials, he might be able to obtain a real noble title, such as a baron. After all, in terms of bloodline, the Fleyg family was definitely qualified, and he even had the qualification to inherit the position of the Grand Duke of Liverpool!

Of course, there were quite a few nobles in the entire principality who had the qualification to inherit, almost a quarter of them...Every person who fights on the battlefield has more or less some awareness.

When you cut off an enemy's head with a long sword, it is destined that one day someone will cut off your head. Old Fleyg died in the most recent Orc War .This war was almost the largest one in recent years. Although every year, the Holy Cross Alliance, composed of seven countries, would have a battle with the Orc Empire, this time it was a rare large-scale operation, and the war was still ongoing.The small mercenary group, having lost their leader, quickly withdrew from the battlefield. They had fulfilled their mercenary mission and, after receiving their rewards, returned to Old Fleyg's hometown, Fleyg Manor.

The temporary leader of the mercenary group was now a friend of Old Fleyg's, named Dukar. The mercenary group originally had four knights, Old Fleyg and his two old friends, plus a hired freelance knight. This was a very good strength. Among the four knights, two had strengths between level three and four.

Although they were only quasi-knights, they were considered experts among mercenaries, as most mercenaries were not even warriors but just ordinary fighters. Old Fleyg was an even more powerful fifth-level regular knight. Such strength could have made him a company commander in a regular army.A week after the mercenary group returned to Fleyg Manor, seventeen-year-old Edward died.
