Year 0 of the Human Calendar - Holy Land of Xue - South gate
(Linjian POV)
“I will go now“ Linjian
Today will be the first day of recruiting new people.
“Yes, take care master“ Yue
“Leave the security of this place to us“ Tang
“Remember, don't fight spiritual creatures of Gold rank“
[You sound like a worried parent]
(...)
“If they appear I will use my Wind Manipulation to make us run away“ Yue
Her Wind Manipulation does not work like the other Manipulations. She is unable to wrap her body with it, but she can create gusts of wind that can make her speed increase.
“Master Linjian, Please save as many lives as you can“ Tang
He wanted to come with me but I rejected him, going alone is faster.
“Of course, get ready to welcome them“ Linjian
“We will“ Yue and Tang
I turn my back at them and start running.
[At your current speed, it will take around two hours to get there]
(And on the way back, I will have to bring people with me so it will take more time)
[That means one quest per day]
......
...
First, I will go to the market and use all my remaining Spirit coins to buy some seeds, I will need them.
“Come with me in silence“ man
“?“ Linjian
I see a child with a strange skin walking with a man.
......
...
“With the power bestowed to me from of the goddesses of life and peace I name you...Usain Mandela“ Linjian
Love what you're reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on.
[What a far-fetched way to say that I'm giving him the name]
(You are the one that told me to talk like this)
“Mandela?“ Usain
“Where I come from the name goes first“ Linjian
“That is weird“ Usain
“You will get used, Usain“ Linjian
“Usain huh“
He seems happy.
[A name is important after all]
After buying some cotton and rice seeds, we went to the Northeast wall and I dig through the earth as I always do.
“Are you a cultivator?“ Usain
My skill surprised him as we are underground.
“No, I am a blessed by the goddesses and you can be one when we reach where we are going“ Linjian
Maria recommended me to say it like that, people will be more willing to follow a goddess rather than some man.
“Seriously?!“ Usain
“Yes“ Linjian
We come out of the ground once we are far enough.
“Now I will lift you with some soil to make the travel more safe“ Linjian
“...Okay“ Usain
I create an earth platform of one meter radius under him and I lift it with my right hand over my shoulder.
“Wow!“ Usain
“The platform will grab you by the legs, don't fear it“ Linjian
I secured him to the platform.
“Lets go“ Linjian
I started running again.
“!!!“ Usain
......
...
We reached the Steel gates of the Holy Land of Xue and There were people waiting for us.
“Welcome back master“ Yue
“Welcome back master Linjian“ Tang
“I am back“ Linjian
[KID RESCUED, MIND EXPERIENCE OBTAINED]
“And welcome to you too“ Yue and Tang
They smile at him.
“Ah...“ Usain
He is staring at their clothes.
“I can make some new clothes for you“ Linjian
I smiled at him.
“...No, I don't want to bother you“ Usain
“It is not a bother, but first there is a place I want to show you“ Linjian
I take him to the Bronze statue of the goddesses of life and peace.
“These are the people that saved you“ Linjian
“WOOW!“ Usain
[He must never have seen something like this]
“Do you want to be blessed by the goddesses?“ Linjian
“YES!“ Usain
[What enthusiasm]
(It's understandable)
I take a System Serum syringe from my medical kit.
“I will need to puncture your arm with this“ Linjian
I explain it to him.
“All right“ Usain
He extends his right arm to me and the System Serum enters his body.
“Tomorrow your body will become stronger, after that happens don't forget to thank the goddesses“
“I will definitely do it, eemm“
“?“
“Should I call you master like the people in the entrance?“
[You forgot to say your name]
“My name is Linjian Campbell and I am the The Anointed King of the Holy Land of Xue“
[Campbell?]
(Of course, the leader needs a last name and you are technically my twin)
[Should I call you little brother?]
(Don't)
“Anointed King and goddesses, thanks for saving me“ Usain
“My pleasure“ Linjian
......
...
In the night, I go to my bedroom after showing Usain his house.

[Don't be cocky, we are fighting cultivators. One wrong step and you will die]
(...That is truth)
