Janet had just given birth.
Priya instructed the maids to clean up all the filth. By that time, Roland had already gone over the changes.
Upon entering the room, Roland saw Janet, who had finished giving birth and was lying on the bed resting.
Her originally rosy face was now pale.
She had lost a lot of vitality from giving birth. From what he could infer, the stronger the aptitude of the children, the higher the nourishment needed to breed them.
"Janet, you've worked hard."
Seeing his wife in this state, Roland couldn't help but show a hint of pity in his eyes.
"Not hard at all!"
Feeling her husband's concern, Janet felt warmth in her heart. The two of them exchanged sweet words for a while.
Then, Roland turned his head to carefully examine the newborn baby.
This was a girl. It must be said that an E offspring is extraordinary.
Generally speaking, babies grow in the amniotic fluid in the womb and are born with wrinkled bodies.
They look like little old men and it takes some time to recover and return to normal.
However…..
His little daughter was different.
Even though she had just been born, her skin was still smooth and fair. Her little face was even rosy. She looked very cute and despite crying, her eyes seemed to pick around curiously as if trying to observe information.
The eyes weren't anything like children at all. For a moment, he wondered if his daughter was a transmigrator but he suppressed his thoughts as it didn't matter.
"Wuwu!"
Looking at this delicately carved little one, Roland couldn't help but reach out and play with her.
And this little one was very cooperative.
Waving her hands and feet, she grabbed Roland's hand and laughed happily.
As Roland played with her, he felt that the girl was eagerly looking at the sword on his waist.
Seeing the intimate interaction between father and daughter, a warm smile appeared on Janet's pale face.
Then, as if thinking of something, she spoke, "Roland, you haven't given our daughter a name yet!"
"Let's call her Hilda! Hilda Weiss."
After pondering for a moment, Roland spoke.
Hilda is the given name, and Weiss is the family name.
The reason for giving her a name is also simple. According to the system's detection, this little one's martial spirit talent is at the intermediate level.
At least several times stronger than her old father. She will become a powerful female swordsman in the future.
The name Hilda itself has the meaning of battle, female warrior.
Taking this name is just right.
"Hehehe!"
Seemingly sensing her father's expectations, Hilda smiled even brighter. A harmful giggle erupted from her like a sweet song of hark which acted as a lullaby bringing drowsiness to Janet.
...…
In the blink of an eye.
Several months have passed again.
Perhaps because nurturing an E offspring requires more nutrition.
The physical deficit caused by Janet giving birth this time was much more severe than the previous times.
To help his wife recover as soon as possible and avoid any complications, Roland especially spent half a year's income from the territory to buy a bottle of advanced nourishing magic medicine.
This large expenditure of several hundred gold coins instantly made the family's finances somewhat tight.
There's no other way.
Roland could only go hunting monsters in the nearby forest during his free time.
Hunting was both crucial and necessary.
Their territory was a village with no sturdy walls or fortress surrounding it.
If you ignore the monster number, they may form a pack, and if one of the monsters starts cultivation it will become intelligent and stronger which might cause harm to the village.
This wasn't a normal world, a monster walking the path of cultivation may be tougher and stronger than humans. So most of the time Roland would be on the hunt
His team consists of 20 normal soldiers whom he had trained personally. They had a bit of aptitude to attain Beginner Master knight but it was very difficult.
Till now except him, there hadn't been any awakened warrior in the squad.
His father was a 2nd rank warrior, and that's it.
Except for him none of his brothers had the aptitude to subsidise the household.
With his cultivation as a 6th-level warrior and a 5-star battle technique - StormSword Technique, those low-level monsters on the outskirts of the forest were no match for him.
Easily, he could kill them with one move.
Half a month later….
Roland hunted down 3 wind wolves, 4 water arrow rabbits, and 5 earth spike insects.
Although these were all low-level monsters of levels 1-3.
For others they were terror but for Roland, they weren't anything worth it.
During his stay, he learned that his Kingdom of Jin had around 80 baronies of which 5-6 were destroyed each year and new people were given land.
These barons get killed precisely by these monsters. If Roland can't keep up his strength this place might have already been buried with his father.
Even during his return, Roland killed almost dozens of rank 3 on the way. But no matter what, they were genuine extraordinary creatures.
The fur, bones, flesh, and magic cores were all valuable.Selling one for a dozen gold coins was not a problem.By selling all these prey to merchants, Roland easily earned over a hundred gold coins.
Tasting the sweetness, Roland became even more enthusiastic about hunting monsters but..
Roland standing on the blood-drenched ground sighed.
"I can't keep on hunting alone. If it's about strength that's one thing but the barony finances can't depend on hunting alone."
"I should start the reforms."
The main reason he hadn't started a business was because he was weak.
A Beginner Master rank Knight was good but not good enough to pose danger. He would be sabotaged very badly but now with his peak Intermediate rank, he had been edging on 6th rank and would soon break through to Advanced Master knight which brought him enough confidence.
"Before that, I should first take a look and experience the Barony deeply once again and see if I can get any ideas."
