Though he had anticipated such a response, he still felt disheartened.

The possibility of returning after death lingered.

Yet, what if that return proved unattainable? No one is inclined to take risks without an overwhelming sense of despair.

Meanwhile, the prospect of never seeing his parents or friends again weighed heavily on him, compelling him to cherish their memories deeply.

Are you certain you wish to venture into territory expansion now? The challenges of newly developed lands are formidable.

You may accompany me for a time, and once you enhance your level, you can embark on that endeavor.

Lin Noa suggested.

Thank you, Captain Lynn.

I have made my decision.

Furthermore, as the Lord's level increases, the difficulty of the encroaching mists will also rise.

It is all the same.

Sujene expressed his gratitude.

Very well.

Open the system and review the contract, Lin Noanu instructed, refraining from further commentary as she connected to Sugene system.

The contract contained no outlandish clauses, merely the standard rights and responsibilities.

Sujene was required to pay taxes monthly, though Lin Nuanu waved his first three months to allow him to focus entirely on developing his territory.

Linuan was responsible for providing security.

Should Sue Gene be invaded by other forces, she would extend her assistance.

Naturally, this privilege would only be granted after he successfully completed his probationary period.

The two parties swiftly finalized the agreement.

Lynn Nuanu extended her hand.

Welcome to the Blade Legion.

Together we shall thrive and confront external foes.

Let us strive to live well in this world.

Certainly, Sugene replied, grasping her hand.

It was soft and cool to the touch.

Chapter 3.

An accident is not an accident.

Sujene held Linuana<unk>s hand about to say some polite words.

But suddenly, the system emitted an alarm and a series of pop-ups appeared before Su Jin's eyes.

Warning.

Unknown program PLLE 945 is starting.

The security system is intercepting.

Danger.

Interception failed.

Forcibly clearing the target program.

High risk.

Forced clearance failed.

The main security system is intervening.

Extreme doni.

Main security system intervention failed.

Calling for highest authority.

Safe.

The highest authority has whitelist the PL945 program.

Alarm.

Ignore the PLE 945 program is forcibly deleting this record.

Record deletion successful.

Congratulations.

You have obtained the identity of successor.

Congratulations.

You have awakened the inherited talent eye of true sight.

S level talent which allows you to see certain hidden information.

All information about the successor is hidden, visible only to oneself and cannot be investigated by others through any method or skill.

Huh? What is this? Sugene looked at the series of system prompts that appear before him, completely unaware of what was happening, especially the last three lines about the successor, which were in glowing golden text, completely different from the systems default font.

It seemed that something significant had occurred.

While Su Jeene was focused on the system prompts, Lin Nuanu and Zhuing were also looking at him from their perspective.

After Su Jene held Lin Nuanu<unk>s hand, he suddenly froze, his gaze continuously scanning her, finally fixating on a spot below her collar, revealing a shocked expression, not knowing what he was looking at.

He also held her hand tightly without letting go.

Shiang Zhuing asked blankly.

Sujene, what's wrong with you? Lin Nuanu tried to retract her hand but couldn't pull it away.

Huh? Sugene finally reacted hurriedly using his consciousness to close the prompt information and withdraw his impolite gaze.

But at that moment, a piece of information floated up from Lin Noanu.

90g 90g.

Sujene read out in surprise, not knowing why this number appeared on her.

Lin Nuanu frowned, forcefully pulling her hand away and covering her collar.

Zhuing<unk>s mouth was now opened in a big O shape.

You seem a bit strange.

Lin Nuanu stared at him.

Sujene then realized what 90g meant.

He felt speechless.

Captain Lynn, don't misunderstand.

I didn't mean to offend.

Linuan smiled slightly and said, "Zhuing applied to be transferred under your command earlier, and I agreed at that time, but now I feel like I shouldn't have agreed.

Besides assisting you as your subordinate, she will also serve as an inspector for the Blade Legion.

She will report to me about the development of your territory and the subsequent tax collection work.

Sujene naturally had no objections.

Lin Nuanu continued, "The official business is done.

Let's call a day.

I have a meeting soon.

" Zhuing will take you to your territory.

You need to develop it well.

Don't overthink it and don't have any strange ideas.

Sujene lowered his head, avoiding Lin Nuanu's scrutinizing gaze.

He initially wanted to explain, but as he lowered his head, his gaze swept over two more pieces of information that popped up.

61 92.

He gave up on explaining because only when there is a thought in his mind wanting to check the information will the ability of the eye of true sight activate.

Face your own heart.

Suji now understood how the ability of the eye of true sight worked.

Captain Xiang might not have much insight.

Zhu Ting wanted to defend Sujene but couldn't find a strong reason.

Clearly lacking confidence.

It's okay.

You all go ahead.

Just be careful.

Lin Noanu expressed some concern for Zhuing.

Sujene and Zhu Ting took their leave.

After they left, Lin Noanu looked down.

Although her white shirt was tightly stretched, it was very well wrapped.

How do you see that so clearly? Lin Noanu shook her head, no longer thinking about it.

After Sujene and Zhu Ting came out, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
