Chapter 4 - [Volume 1 - Childhood] Chapter 4

At one of the rooms of the protective bunkers, I was really bored that I decided to count things from what I had taken for the lessons and the knowledge I compiled by playing with this Omni I was given.

I looked at the screen displayed in this informative game.

The question itself had reminded myself, once again, an electronic toy I was given in my past life's childhood in learning Mathemathics.

[

Question: Who is credited as the founding king of Aldria and the one who established its foundation while also codifying the discipline of Geistatmung?

A) Thrain the Captain

B) Carolus the First Cross

C) Emhyr the Founder of Geistatmung

D) Gaharius the Sage

E) Gerhardt the Pillar

]

The genrated question itself was a bit tricky if a person does not know the actual history of The Silver Dragon Orchid Empire itself. The idea of such question can be reworded many times in such a manner, it would require properly reading it, and knowing each figures' biography and what they mean to the Aldrian history, and the impact.

The names, the choices in this question, they're connected to the Wyynser Royal Dynasty ancestors, and the ancestors of all monarchs of Aldria itself save for this Emhyr the Founder of Geistatmung, another Wyyneser Royal Dynasty ancestor, father to Carolus the First Cross and many more ancestors, a figure who was within [The Birth of Geistatmung Period]. He, Emhyr, was one of the co-creators of Geisatmung, but that answer was wrong obviously.

To begin with, the arrangement of choices wasn't even that funny because they're all blood-related, and ommited two persons to complete a family tree of The Wyynser Royal Dynasty.

Regarding Thrain the Captain, also known as The Sword Maestro of the Frozen Gale Origin, that ancestor who was a great grandfather to Gaharius the Sage, this guy was one of the guys I might try to fight against in the virtual simulators, and understand his swordsmanship. The records did said what should a Knight embodying The Spirit of Waffenarian Steel should be, and the statemanship.

This question, I already knew Gaharius the Sage was the one who pushed things further for Aldria for I remembered an Steinburgian history from my past life world of an ancient revered and national hero, choosing "D" for this question, was also wrong because while Gaharius the Sage, did declared Waffenaria, the would-be Aldria, as an empire, because of the campaigns, reforms, innovations, and hunting monsters, did by his great great grandfather, Thrain the Captain, the answer's still wrong incuding Gerhardt the Pillar, Gaharius the Sage's father, an Aldrian figure who encouraged of using "Aldria", and "Waffenaria", as two of the offical names in this country which to this day, saying, "I'm an Aldrian." would be a simile and synonym to "I'm a Waffenarian".

So the correct answer was, Carolus the First Cross, the man who started it all including the creating of new settlement of what would become Aldria, the creation of many more institutions like the Foundation, and many more legacies that remained relevant to this day and age including the signature Aldrian alcoholic drinks.

'The very fucking first kaiser in the Aldrian civilization's history...Carolus the First Cross, be honored by this reincarnator for giving you treatment of viewing you as The Aldrian Ser Reinhardt Wolfgang von Eichenwald in this world.' Thoughts about my real allegience country's first [Grand Regent of Steinburgia] that had left Steinburgia after The Iron Gardener's death, one of the figures from my past life world aside, I went on to touch the answer choice B as my answer towards this question, not because blyat.

I'm right.

[Well done for answering this question I made for you, sapientor, o pursuer of knowledge!

Remember in The Silver Dragon Orchid Empire, our Reich, The United Crownlands of Aldria, Carolus the First Cross is the start for all of us, and the Aldrian framework, Kaiserliches Staatsmanagement, 55 Millenia ago, to be exact, the Year 1 of Annalis Magnus.

For refresher, Annalis Magnus, is the Aldrian Calendar System. It's created during The Birth of Geistatmung Period by Irisviel Brunestud, the first Chairperson of the Board of Crown State Administration of Progress and Discovery.

Keep up the good work and apply our tenets to practice!]

'What an encouraging message embedded in this educational device. Thankfully someone like Old Man Magnus and The Fellowship of Silver Hunt Initiatites have more story to tell and the lessons.' Reading a keypiece of history that were already factually verified was a nice loot for my pursuits including the living legends, the guys I marked as a "treasure trove", I smiled a bit as I sipped tea.

It's not that out of my habit as Cedric Arboleda Vogola for what the Famiglia, and the Steinburgian government did or when I studied at one of the SORD schools in my past life.

It' s more of having a valuable knowledge, to be added to my growing memory palace, than to rely of this cheat.

While I'm playing this so-called game, not that NSFW kind, answering each every single question which sometimes were not in "Blue Star Common" language as part of learning languages, my second cousin who was sitting on other couch, Ethan Wycliffe, I could hear him muttering in mixture of languages from Aldrian to Regalis Waffenariae, from Regalis Waffenariae to Blue Star Common, and from Blue Star Common to Anguluse, where Anguluese, this Aldrian language was basically and literally "Common Albosian", one of the Steinburgian languages in its form.

To be honest, hearing such sentence or muttering composed of words from various languages, was kind of a bit weird.

"While I understand the adults also included the polymathy and polyglotism development as per one of the customs, this is very important. Sebastian, kindly pour Mindbloom Tea on my tea cup for another round."

"Understood, Young Master Ethan."

'Fufu, that brings me back to my days. To know the enemy, one must know who they are beneath and their ways.

The question is do they even fucking know what a hyperbole is?

Oh well, time to continue the grind. This world can be dangerous too.'

With these thoughts, I resumed answering the next question.

The question itself was about who was the Empire's 2170th monarch of the Empire.

'The answer is...Charlotte the Valkyrie, full name, Charlotte Basileusia von Wyynser.'

30 minutes later, still in the same spot, except standing and checking my training sword, I unsummoned it.

What an almost day of being cut short right in the bunker all because of the announcement that had us relocated here.

The good thing was there's ready to use blades and the essentials.

I suspected it might be a Rampage sighting. It's usually like that from in The Kingslayer games from my past life.

"Tara, I think I want to go outside of our room."

'Really in this situation? If you are a reincarnator and a veteran of battles like me that would have been fine, but that's not the case. Thinking about it reminded was like one question regarding the NPCs.' I thought, before looking at him. He sported a small mischief when he called me out. "Ethan, care to repeat that?"

"I said, I want to go outside our room to have a go in the simulators."

'Wines and alcohol, there are many I wanted to try and savor. The taste is even better when shared with family and friends. A single sip from this reinc- wait what!?' Snapping out from my thoughts, I looked at Ethan. "Ethan, are you really really really sure?"

"Definitely!"

I asked once again my previous question, added with a small content of playful tone. "Really? No ideas or sneaking or else get disciplined by your materns with a chancla?"

At the chancla, or should I say slipper, Ethan, for a moment, had a horrified look and shivered a bit at the mention of this object.

It's no question many were 'victims' to the chancla and the parenting tools.

"Yes! Nothing more, Tara! I promise on the Silver Dragon Orchid and our ancestors!"

'There's no need to use our country's national flower for that, Ethan. Hmm, I might as well take a look at how beautiful that flower is later if I have an opportunity. It is a likely the most fucking preciously beautiful thing I ever seen.' I thought, before giving him a nod. "Fine. I, too, wanted to have a go in the simulators."
