The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Renne, who was still feeling the aftereffects of the battle just now, couldn't help but turn his head in confusion when he heard what Hamilton said.

Hamilton looked around and said, "Come, let's go to the office to talk about this."

Ren nodded, naturally agreeing.

After the three Hamiltons left, the entire training ground was like a pot of hot oil poured directly into a pot of cold water, and it boiled instantly!

"Ren actually became an official knight at such a young age! This kind of knight talent is probably rare in the county, right?"

"Yes! It seems that we have never seen a knight as young as Ren in Goldshire, right?"

"The last Vasily seemed to be eighteen years old!"

"."

Inside the office.

The three of them sat facing each other, and Connor was still looking up and down at Ren with a smile on his face, as if looking at a rough gemstone that had just been unearthed.

Hamilton looked solemn and said to Renn seriously: "Renn, you have to prepare for one thing in advance, which is to prepare for the imperial canonization assessment."

"The empire's canonization assessment?" Renn asked with some confusion.

After entering the transcendent realm, wouldn't it be true that the empire would directly confer the lowest noble status such as a knight?

Why do you still need an assessment? Renxin said.

Seemingly understanding the confusion on Lane's face, Hamilton did not sell out and continued to explain:

"If you are the direct heir of a noble, you can naturally avoid this step and directly obtain the imperial canonization. However, for non-direct heirs, civilian promotions, outsiders surrendering, etc., you need to make contributions to the empire before you have the opportunity to obtain canonization. ”

Ren nodded, he understood. The empire allows you to enjoy the treatment of a noble, and naturally requires you to make corresponding contributions to the empire. Otherwise, unless the ancestors have made meritorious deeds, how can such a good thing like just enjoying the benefits without having to work come from?

"Of course, some less powerful new knights will choose to be loyal to some big nobles and become family knights of the nobles, but I think you will definitely not choose this path." Just listen to Hamilton continue.

Ren nodded.

Since you can actively choose the big tree to lean against, it is natural to choose the thickest one. After all, no nobleman can compare with the towering tree of the Empire.

Whether it is the various rare resources, rare combat skills or secret knowledge it can provide, the official empire will always be the strongest within the Dragon Empire.

"So, Lord Hamilton, what you are saying is that this imperial canonization assessment is difficult, or does it have a threshold?" Renn thought for a while and said.

"That's right!"

"If you are a descendant of a noble family, as long as you reach the transcendent level, you can directly sign up for the canonization assessment."

"But for civilians, this matter is much more troublesome."

"First, submit an application to the canonization assessment committee under the Empire Council of Elders. They will review your origins and past to confirm that you are not a spy or from some hostile force."

"Secondly, you need to work or perform tasks in the official functional departments of the empire and slowly accumulate merit points. Only when the merit points exceed 1,000 points, you will be eligible to apply for the assessment."

"For you, Renn, you don't have to think about submitting the application. As long as you agree, I will help you submit the application. In addition, you are already serving in the Night Watch. So, from this point of view, you are already better than others. Half a step ahead."

"Thank you, sir. What are my current merit points?"

"324 points, which already includes the merit points for annihilating the secret stronghold of the Black Flame Church." Hamilton directly reported a number and said.

It's still nearly two-thirds short. It seems that it's not that simple to collect 1,000 merit points.

After all, the simpler the task, the smaller the merit reward. The more dangerous the mission, although the merit reward will be much greater, but it requires risking your life. Whether it is worth it depends on yourself. Renn thought to himself.

However, there are still a few questions, and Renn feels that he still needs to ask them clearly.

"Sir, how is this canonization assessment generally conducted? Or what is the content of the assessment?" Ren asked.

"Usually, it involves completing a certain task, which may involve multiple people or a single person. Each person's task performance will be recorded and submitted to the canonization assessment committee for judgment." Hamilton explained.

After thinking about it, Hamilton added: "You can understand the last mission of killing the Black Flame monk and rescuing the children as an assessment mission. Of course, there are differences, and the main difference lies in the evaluation."

"If your evaluation is high enough, you may directly obtain the title of Baron, followed by Lord, and Knight just after crossing the passing line."

After listening, Renn looked thoughtful. It turned out that he had different evaluations based on different performances.

"No! Wouldn't it be better to take the test later? After all, later, you will have more time to practice, and your strength will naturally be higher."

"Then why does Mr. Hamilton have to prepare and participate as soon as possible?" Renn immediately thought of something wrong.

At this time, Colonel Connor, who had been listening for a long time, said with a smile: "Don't you understand why Hamilton told you to hurry up?"

Renn nodded and said: "I do have such a question. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to go with higher strength?"

"That's because of age, which is also an important factor that affects evaluation." Connor said with a smile.

"In addition, there is another very important reason that Hamilton did not mention, and that is that invitations to the Empire's 'Sword Bearers' will only be issued to members who have obtained the rank of Baron."

"At this time, the advantage of age is very crucial."

‘Sword Bearer’?

This seems to have touched upon one of Ren's knowledge blind spots.

After looking at Ren's slightly confused expression, Colonel Connor added:

"Sword-bearer, Ren, you can understand that this is a privileged organization with extremely wide coverage across the entire empire. If you can join, you will be out of Meister County and even the province of Munster."

"You will come into contact with a wider world!"

This can't help but make Renn feel a little moved. Can he contact a wider world?

That is naturally good.

At this time, Hamilton continued what Connor said:

"So, in order to seek stability, most new knights will choose to slowly increase their merit points. It usually takes two or three years to get enough of these 1,000 merit points, and then they will participate in the canonization assessment. The goal is to pass and obtain Knighthood."

"But Ren, I think with your talent, it would really be a waste if you do this!"

"'Sword Bearer'! When I was young, I worked hard and fought hard towards this goal, but the gap in talent still made me lose in the end." Hamilton seemed to recall the past and couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course, Ren, you ultimately need to make your own decision on this matter."

"Connor and I are just telling you this news. At the same time, we think it would be a pity not to give it a try if you have such a good talent."

Ren nodded and said, "Thank you two adults for telling me such important news."

After thinking for a while, without much hesitation, Ren said: "If you have the opportunity to see a wider world, then... you must go and see it."

As soon as Renne said this, Hamilton immediately laughed, looked at Renne with more admiration, and said:

"Okay, if there are any tasks with relatively high merit rewards recently, I will help you keep an eye on them. Renn, just wait for my news."

"In addition, I will arrange for someone else to take charge of the night watchman's night patrol."

"I really didn't expect that I just appointed you as the captain of the Night Watch, but today you become extraordinary!"

"In this case, you can be my deputy first. As for your application for deputy security officer of Goldsmith Town, I will report to the county tomorrow." Hamilton was obviously in a good mood and said proactively.

"Then thank you, Lord Hamilton." Ren said seriously.

It was already dusk when Lane left Hamilton's office.

Renn took a deep breath and looked at the town where the lights were gradually lighting up.

The night scene of Goldshire remained unchanged, but he was completely different from when he came.

In other words, Renne, who has become a knight (extraordinary), has taken the first step to control his own destiny.

When I returned home to Wren, I smelled the fragrant aroma of food as soon as I entered the door. This was the smell of my mother Emma preparing dinner.

"Brother, you're back!" Mint, who was originally playing with the greyhound 'Cookie', saw Ren entering the door and ran over happily and hugged Ren enthusiastically.

However, as if he felt something, Mint let go and raised his head, looking at Ren with a puzzled look on his face, and said, "Brother, why do I feel that you are different from before?"

"It seems like the whole person is glowing."

The child's keen perception immediately discovered the strong life force field emitted by Ren, but he didn't know how to express it or what it meant.

At this time, Lagre and Anna, who heard the news of Ren's return home, also came down from upstairs.

After the two of them heard Mint's last words, they began to look up and down at Ren.

Although Anna also felt that Ren was different, she couldn't tell what was different.

But La Gray was different. She was stunned. The next second, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened, she pointed at Ren and said with a surprised look on her face: "Ren, you... have you stepped into the extraordinary?"

At this time, the whole family's eyes were focused on Renn. Even his mother Emma poked her head out of the kitchen and looked at Renn.

Renn touched his head, smiled, and said: "It's a fluke! I took the advanced magic potion at Lord Hamilton's place in the afternoon, and I successfully entered the transcendent realm!"

"Bang!" Mother Emma's rice spoon fell to the ground. She felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her whole body was crumbling at the moment. Her face was flushed and her eyes were white. She was so excited that she almost fainted.

Renn quickly stepped forward and supported her.

Old Ren's hand holding the wine bottle was also trembling, as if he had Parkinson's disease. His lips trembled twice, wanting to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

Anna's big eyes looked at Ren with a complicated expression.

That night, Old Ren was very drunk!
