NOVEL NEXT Chapter 8: Chapter 8: Cheats!
Because of this many people grew to like Jake as the lord of this place, also I had hear that their pervious lord was sort of a…pig.
At first I was confused but then I saw posters of the guy all over the place and now…I get it. From the pictures I saw he looked like a pig that had taken human form and that is putting it lightly.
But beside the point it has been a year since everyone had grown accustomed and started to think of everyone as neighbors.
"Hurry up boy or the city lord is going to kick your ass." I heard as I rolled my eyes. It was well known that I was basically a son to Jake and honestly I thought of him as a father.
"Go get absorbed by a slime, Chuck." I said as the man coughed violently as he drank some alcohol.
"Shitty brat!" I heard him yell as I sprinted past the gate and towards the lord's manor.
Thanks to many of the guards knowing me it was an easy task to enter the manor just in time to see Jake in the courtyard waiting patiently for me.
As soon as I entered Jake looked at me as I stopped in front of him and caught my breath.
"You're late." He said simple as I looked up at him.
"I had to pick Herbs for mom." I said as he stiffened and quickly looked around as if waiting for a demon to pop out of the ground.
"W-Where is she?" He asked as I mentally sighed.
"She is delivering the Herbs to the guild. I guess she will be here later." I said as he didn't seem to believe me as he looked around some more until he turned to me. I guess you could say that hell hath no scorn like a woman's wrath.
"Well let's get started before she comes here." He said as I nodded as he tossed me an adult sized sword. What surprised me was that it was metal and not wood, I just gave him a puzzled look as he pulled out his own.
"Wood swords are okay but if you are planning on advancing at all in swordplay than metal is the way to go." He said as I nodded and picked up the sword.
As I did I felt a familiar feeling come to me as I clutched the baled in my hand. The feeling of a sword was almost calming to me, like I was home.
However, just then something popped up in front of me.

'Wait? What in the world was happening?' I slightly started to panic as I looked at the boxes before me.
Sure I knew Greek Swordplay but how could I learn this without even practicing it? But then it slowly came to me.
My body might not be the same but my mind was so that would mean my sword mastery was all in my head.
This was true since I was picturing all the moves in my head right now at light speed but as I did another notification popped up in my head.

I just stared blankly at the pop up boxes in front of me as my eyebrow raised up and my mouth twitched lightly. If there was one word to explain what has just happened I think I can do it.
'Cheats!' I mentally yelled in my head as I stared at the info before me.
