"Get out of the fucking way, you filthy peasant before I decide to kill you with my sword!"
I looked towards the direction of the scream and there was a man who looked like a guard driving a carriage that seemed to hold a noble.
I did not want any trouble so I moved to the sides and let the carriage go through. However, it seems that fate does not want me to have peace and immediately after the carriage went past me, the guard stopped the carriage, got off of it, then proceeded to walk towards me.
"You! Didn't I tell you to move out of the way?!"
"*Sigh*, I did move out of the way. You could tell because you did not crash into me,"
"Huh, when I tell you to move out of the way, you're supposed to bow and apologize after you move out of the way you filthy peasant! Are you trying to get killed?" He then smiled sadistically. "I usually don't like killing others and I see that you got a sword over there. Cut off your arm and bow down to me before I do it myself,"
I was getting more and more pissed off. I did not want to get in trouble with a noble in my first minute of arriving at the town, but if I have to, I am willing to fight off the entire kingdom if I really have to although with my current strength, I'm not really all that powerful.
"Please don't push me too far, I do not want to hurt anybody right now, but if you really insist on my mutilating myself, then I'm warning you right now, you will regret it,"
The guard now had a vein popping out and if looks can kill, I would have died a 100 times already. The guard took out his sword, but before he can act, the carriage window was rolled down and the person inside started talking.
"Jun, I told you to stop being so arrogant in front of others just because we're nobles. If it weren't for peasants, we would not even be rich right now and we would be working just like them. I told you to appreciate them,"
I was surprised. It was a girl's voice and she doesn't sound that old either. She sounded maybe 16-18 years old.
"But, Madam Lyka, this lowly commoner-"
"What did I just say?! Come back here before I burn you!"
The guard or Jun flinched then looked at me burning hatred and walked back to the carriage. However, before he could go, the girl inside of the carriage came out.
The girl was extremely beautiful. She looked around 16 and looked like a doll. She had pale skin, silky blond hair, and a well proportioned body. She also seemed to be around 165 cm tall. By the way, I am currently 180 cm tall so to me that height was perfect.
'Jeffrey,' Suddenly I heard Navi's voice in my head.
'Woah, Navi, you can use telepathy?'
'Yes, because I cannot show myself in front of others, I can only use telepathy to communicate. What I wanted to say was that the system gives you a free Appraisal skill that can look into anything 30 levels above you or lower. You used this when you identified the goblin and the Demon of the Forest so as you can tell, you can use it without thinking Appraisal or anything. All you have to know is have the desire to look at the target's stats. If you are 30+ levels lower than the target, then all you will see are question marks until you attack the target. Also, as it is a function of the system, it is not part of your skill set so you do not have to spend SP on it. You can also use this skill for item identification as well. However, when looking at another human, their equipment is not shown,'

'Oh I see then. Alright thank you,'
'No problem,'
Immediately after this discovery, I used Appraisal on the girl that just came out.

Achievement(s): Heiress of the Wintercolt Family, Killer of hundred bandits, Extreme Talent of the Fire Magic
Eldest child of the Wintercolt Family where the head of the family is one of the 4 Dukes of the Kingdom of Piton. The family itself is a very chivalrous family where everyone loves to help out the poor and unfortunate. The only problem is that the servants tend to be arrogant due to the massive power they hold due to being a noble's servant. She, herself, is very kind and is willing to help anyone that needs assistance. However, if she becomes angry, she will become a Demon that not even her parents can stop.
"Oh god, that description sounds like a yandere for some reason,"
As I was becoming more and more scared, Lyka started to introduce herself.
"Hello, my name is Lyka Wintercolt, the daughter of Duke Issac Wintercolt. I apologize for my servant's extreme rudeness. I will make sure to thoroughly discipline him later and also to demote him so that he would reflect on his decisions,"
"Oh, that's no problem. It was only a misunderstanding. My name is Jeffrey and saying my last name is a bit troublesome for me for various reasons," Of course that last part was a lie and the real reason is that there's no point in her knowing my last name.
"Ah, as an apology, would you like to ride my carriage with me and come over to my place. My house is that huge mansion that you can see even from here,"
"Ahh, no it is fine. I can't trouble you for just a misunderstanding. I will just find an inn,"
"I insist,"
"No, really I am-,"
"I insist,"
"OK..."
After seeing the scary glare, I could not refuse and got on the carriage. While getting on, the guard Jun, seemed extremely upset, but he did not say anything and simply drove the carriage.
Due to me being the Duke's carriage, I went in without doing any identity checks. Although it seemed to be around 6:00 in the evening, the town was still bustling. To be honest, it looked like the generic town from reincarnation mangas. However, the food that I was smelling from inside the carriage seemed exquisite and I could not wait to eat it when I leave the Duke's house tomorrow.
When we arrived at the Duke's mansion after 10 minutes of Lyka talking and talking, all I saw was grand grand and finally grand. It was a bigger version of the White House with that Medieval Age feel to it.
"Come on, let's go in," Lyka said with hurry.
Inside was even grander with chandeliers and statues everywhere. There were also various family pictures as well. It seems that there are 3 children with Lyka being the eldest, then a daughter, then a son being the youngest.
We passed through many doors until finally Jun and Lyka finally stopped and entered.
It was the dining room where the entire family was present.
The Duke was a handsome man that looked like he was around his 40s. He looked like those good nobles in animes where they have that mustache that looks really good on them. The duchess was a beautiful lady like Lyka and she looks like she is in her early 30s, but I feel like she is in her early 40s.
There was a girl that looked like she was around 15-16 and she seems to be Lyka's sister and finally was a boy that looked around 13-15 and he should be the youngest son of the Duke. Jun walked off to the sides where the maids and butlers were and Lyka took a seat in the living room.
I stood there and there was an awkward silence in the room. Finally, the Duke spoke with a glare.
"So who are you?"
I immediately tensed up and introduced myself.
"Hello, hehe, my name is Jeffrey and I am a wandering swordsman that seeks to improve my skills,"
"What is your relationship with my daughter. Let me tell you this, if you did anything to her I will immediately behead you!"
"Dad, stop, he's a guest,"
Suddenly, the Duke made a face that overprotective fathers make in animes.
"But Lykaaaa, you brought a man out of nowhere today like you were trying to introduce a boyfriend that you were hiding for months. You can't get a boyfriend yet. In order for you to get a boyfriend, I need to be dead for 10 years!"
"But Dad, that's like when I become 50 myself. What kind of person would want to marry a 50 year old woman?"
"Hmph, I will not accept any man that you bring here unless he can defeat me in battle," The Duke said with a determined face
"Honey, I think that is enough," The Duchess said with a face that showed extreme wrath.
"Ahem, so once again what is your relationship with my daughter. Don't worry, I won't behead you, I will only quarter you if you say the wrong answer,"
"Dad!" Lyka screamed with an embarrassed face.
"Your daughter and I just met today. Her guard over there was being slightly rude thus she just apologized. She then invited me here. That's all there is Sir. I am not seeking her hand in marriage or anything like that,"
The Duke suddenly made a friendly face.
"Oh why didn't you say so. If Lyka can trust you to come here, then we welcome you. As long as you don't date any of my daughters then you'll be fine, but if you have even a slight desire for them, there will be hell to pay,"
"Dad!" This time both daughters screamed at the Duke.
