Chapter 164 Wolf, Son of Jerry
In the next seven days, news about the success of the orc subjugation quickly spread across the northern part of Astania and it was still spreading throughout the other parts of the empire.
The lords who didn't participate in the quest became even more concerned. They were afraid that House Silversword would unite the surrounding houses and oppress them for refusing to answer their call.
The fact that House Silversword had four Transcendents was also revealed, increasing the fame of this once obscure noble household.
Three names also became known to the public; Galanar, Warrick, and William.
Stories about their battles became a favorite topic of conversation.
At this moment, on top of Mount Tegere, thousands of people attended the funeral of the men who were killed in the orc subjugation.
The funeral ceremony was officiated by a high-ranking cleric from the church.
With a solemn voice, the cleric uttered. "Let's take a moment of silence for the warriors who sacrificed their lives for the sake of our safety."
The crowd lowered their heads upon hearing the cleric's words.
After another hour, the ceremony finally ended.
Alaric was about to head back to the main mansion when a messenger came to approach him.
"My lord, there is a letter from Lord Lucas."
Alaric took the letter from him and waved his hand. "You may leave."
The messenger bowed and left right away.
Alaric removed the seal and opened the letter.
So he is in the capital now. The official duel should begin soon. Alaric smiled faintly as he read the contents of the letter. He then folded the paper and put it inside his pocket before heading home with Galanar and a few other warriors.
He jumped onto his horse, but before they could leave, a young voice drifted into their ears.
"Lord Alaric!"
"You should discuss this with your mother first. Once you have gotten her permission, then you can come and visit me." There was a reason why Alaric was willing to spare his time for this young man despite his busy schedule.

This was what he saw after using his Appraisal trait on the young man. It turned out that this young man was already a Knight Apprentice, but the most special thing about him was his potential which was similar to his own.
Based on what I have seen through the Appraisal trait, people with D-rated potential can become an Elite Knight. Those with the potential above C can become Transcendents! He had uncovered this knowledge after repeatedly using the Appraisal trait on everyone he had encountered in the past few days.
"My lord, I will come and look for you soon!" The young man was satisfied now that he had spoken with Alaric. All that was left to do was to get his mother's approval.
"I will wait for you, Wolf, son of Jerry." Alaric chuckled and took one last look at the young man before he departed with the other warriors.
Wolf stared at their disappearing figures with clenched hands. "Mom, I have already thought things through. I want to serve Lord Alaric!"
Hearing her son's words, the mother forced out a smile. "You are just like your father."
She stared at the horizon as if she was looking at her late husband's image. "Let's go home first. If you really want to serve Lord Alaric, then I won't stop you, but let's visit the chapel first and pray that Aru will accept your father in His kingdom."
Hearing this, Wolf nodded while trying hard not to cry.
As they walked home, Wolf muttered in his heart.
Father, you always told me to find the right person to serve. I think I found the person I'm looking for.
