I open my eyes and do a little stretch. I open the window and see people already awake and busy with whatever they are doing. I look at the sun clock and see it is seven in the morning.
I sleep like a log. After that party, I was too tired mentally. A good night's sleep after a delicious meal is a great cure for that.
"Young master, are you awake?"
"Ah! I'm already awake, Jullian!"
"I see. I came here to ask if you want a warm bath or do you want something cold?"
"Warm, please."
"Of course. I shall inform the owner to warm the water for you."
"Thank you."
I do another stretch and take new clothes with me. Because of my position as a Southern noble, we cannot own land in the capital without paying enormous amounts of money. Without land, we cannot build a home here. That is why we rent a room in the local inn.
This is a high-end inn that costs quite a lot of money. The room includes breakfast, dinner, and a private bath (Cold or Warm). I think this was a waste of money, but my father told me I needed to maintain the family image.
As much as he did not want to play the political game, he was noble and needed to do it.
Oh well.
I leave my bedroom and walk to the private bathroom with my bedroom key. While walking there, I can see Jullian waiting for me.
"You don't need to wait for me, Jullian."
"Of course, young master."
I sigh slightly at his answer, knowing he will keep doing just that. I shake my head and walk inside the bathroom while Jullian takes the one next to mine. I clean my body first using soap and shampoo. After cleaning my body, I get inside the bathtub and have a good soak.
Ooohhh~ This is life.
~Sometimes later~
I put the food inside my mouth and eat it.
"What should we do after this, young master?"
"Hmmm? I think we need to visit the church."
"The church? Do you want to donate or pray, young master?"
"No. We will awaken your talent."
"What?"
"Yup."
"B-But it is expensive to awaken someone's talent! I cannot pay you back, young master!"
I look at Jullian, who is holding a turkey leg, and look at me with a shocked expression. I know that he will not accept it for a normal answer and will pay all his earnings back to me to repay what I have done to him.
I need something else.
"Then I want you to work even harder with your new talent. As a future Lord of Cunningham County, I need a right-hand man who I can trust."
I can see him look at me in shock for a few seconds before his eyes start to release a droplet of tears.
"My Lord! This Jullian swear in my family name that I will stay loyal to you until the end of time! Uwahhh!"
I can only sigh and hide my embarrassment at his behavior. Sometimes, he is too much, but… I don't mind it. I even like it. It is unique, and I don't want to trade with anything in the world.
"Anyway, eat all your food. We need to go to church and awaken your talent."
"Ah! Yes!"
It takes him only two minutes to eat that much food at once. He looks lean, but he can eat food five times the amount of a regular person. After paying for the extra food, Jullian and I walk to the biggest church in the entire kingdom.
After ten minutes of walking, we arrived in front of a massive building. The building is white, showing an image of purity and holiness. This is the biggest church of Elina, the Goddess of Light and Creation.
We walk inside, and one of the nuns greets us.
"Welcome to the Home of God, child. What can this humble servant serve you?"
"We come here to ask for the Goddess Blessing, sister."
"Of course, my child."
When I see her not moving, I know what it is. I nod and take out a pouch filled with gold, and smile.
"I also bring gifts for the church, sister. I hope this humble gift can be useful to the people of the church."
When she sees the pouch, I can see her smile get bigger and see her nod. She takes the pouch and says.
"Of course, child. This gift shall be used for the betterment of the people. Now, come. Let's start the baptism."
As a degree from the king, the church in the capital cannot make a prize for giving blessings. However, anyone who did not 'donate' money to the church will not get that service. There will be a ton of excuses the priest, nun, and bishop use to make sure they did not give any blessing to anyone who did not 'donate' to the church.
Not only that, any commoner cannot get inside the church as this is the biggest church in the entire kingdom, and only a noble or someone noble can get inside. The guard outside knew about me and let me get inside without even asking for a letter or something.
Commoners can only go to church outside the city, which means they can charge the commoner with money as they are not in the capital city. They are outside the city.
I shake my head when we arrive in front of a priest holding a golden staff.
"Ah, sister Lily. Who are these children of the Goddess?"
"Greeting father, this is…."
"Greetings, Father. My name is Gwyndolin Cunningham, and I come here to ask for the blessing of Goddess for my friend here."
I look at Jullian, who gives a small bow and says.
"Greetings, Father. My name is Jullian, and I'm a young master Gwyn guard."
"Of course. Of course. Please come closer, child."
I see Jullian walk forward and kneel in front of the priest and hear the old priest start his prayer. After a few seconds of praying, I can see Jullian glow for a few seconds before the light disappears.
After the light disappears, I can see two small cards appear above Jullian. One landed on Jullian's hand, and the other landed on the priest's.
"Congratulations, child. You are now one of the blessed people. Go and spread the kindness of our Goddess."
"Of course, Father."
After that, we walked out of the church, and when we stepped out of the church, Jullian gave me his card.
"Jullian?"
"I want you to know what I have, young master. I will be your right-hand man, and I feel you need to know what I can do to make full use of me."
"You are not a tool, Jullian."
I sigh and take the card from his hand. I look at the card and start to read it.
=||=
|Lightning Lord|
|He who controls lightning. He can call upon the wrath of heaven and smite his enemy.|
=||=
As I thought, the description is shit. If not for the knowledge I get from awakening, I would never know I would get my game character class.
"Hmmm, the description is not much. Do you want to have a spar? We can go to the barracks where the others stay and ask the captain to let us spar."
"Of course! It has been a while since we spar! I cannot wait to show you my new talent!"
After saying that, we walk to the barrack where we will spar.

"How is it? What kind of talent does Jullian have?"
I look at Jonathan, who gives me a card. I look at it and release a tired sigh. This is the worst scenario.
Jullian has two talents that he can get; the first one is called [Shield Lord]. This is the weakest, but it does not mean he is weak in the game; he is still strong, but this talent is not his best talent.
His strongest talent is [Lightning Lord]. This talent makes him the fastest character in the entire game. The Dev releases all the first arc character's sheets with every job they can get. Jullian has the potential to be the fastest NPC in the game if he can grow and reach his max level.
Not only was he the fastest, but he also had a lot of stun debuff attacks that annoyed a lot of players.
Jullian can release a lot of lightning bolts from his body, weapon, and even from the ground. He is a perfect DPS for his AOE and Single spell. To defeat him, I need to gather a lot of lightning resistance armor and bring a lot of support character.
Well, at least the South will not rebel… I hope. Maybe… Right?
