Chapter 15: Levi the Quasi-Knight
Chapter 15: Levi the Quasi-Knight
The City of Storms. Thats where my father was born.
What Green had described was perfectly in line with Levis imagination of wizardsweird, powerful, yet mysterious all at the same time!
I cant rule out that Green was crazy, though No matter what, the sea near the City of Storms may be a clue for me.
Levi noted this down silently and opened some other travel notes. None of them talked about wizards, and he found no helpful clues within them, so he burnt them all.
If only there was the Internet here
He then devoted the rest of his time to training. He was very close to breaking through Level 3 of his breathing method by the end of this month. He could become a Quasi Knight in no time.
During this period of time, he would visit the bear pen to check on their physical conditions.
If all three of them survive, then he will have three knights by his side. He wouldnt need a war horse by then, and he could commission a set of armour just for the bear.
Imagining himself riding into battle with an armoured bear made him ecstatic just thinking about it.
A bear is such a fitting mount in such a magical world!
Three military men were specifically tasked to take care of them around the clock, feeding them fish, wolf meat, venison, and goats milk daily. Occasionally, some vegetables would be given so that they wouldnt die due to a lack of nutrition.
Levi interacted with them daily, planning to tame them through familiarity.
No matter what, mammals will always develop attachments at an early age.
Levi purchased a book from a wandering traveller on animal taming, An Introduction to Animal Taming in the Clown Circus, including some works by scholars of the kingdom who studied Giant Bears.

To Levis surprise, after he had read the book, an extra skill appeared on his proficiency panel:
Levi Snyder
Black Snake Breathing Method: Level 2 (4899/5000)
Golden Cross: Level 3 (56/10000); Special Effect: Vibrate (Advanced)
Beast Taming: Level 1 (66/1000)
My god.
Levi was dumbfounded. He didnt know his panel would log different skills into itself like that. No matter what, he had learnt a new skill, which made him very happy. Moreover, it was practical and functional.
In order to verify his panel, he asked Knight Fred to buy all books related to animal taming from all over the country.
[Karens Beast Taming Handbook]
[Notes of Taming in the Royal Circus]
[Guide to Beast Taming]
And he bought these books at a very high price.
In this era, the price of books was very high, but in order to cultivate himself, Levi could only spend money.
This puzzled Knight Fred.
Master, are you planning to become an animal trainer?
No, I just want to use the correct method to tame these bears. These little guys are too wild, dont you think? Every time I visit them, they growl at me.
Were running out of money, young master. We only have sixty-eight gold coins in our bank now, he shrugged.
Dont worry. I have a plan for that.
Levi was still using his own methods to tame animals: food. No bear was going to refuse the smell of delicious, roasted venison soaked in honey.
They might be apprehensive toward Levi, but they would never refuse his food.
Seven days later, Levis breathing method hit Level 3, his limbs instantly fell stronger, and his breathing rate was far higher than usual. The oxygen content in his blood rose sharply, and his physical fitness was off the charts. In the cold winter, white steam would emit from his body.
He has finally reached the standard of a Quasi Knight, and he opens his proficiency panel.

Finally.
Levi breathed a sigh of relief. Now it was time to gather the seeds of life to become an official knight.
Only 1% of Quasi Knights become qualified knights. He reminded himself.
Levi moved his muscles, feeling the surge of power within them.
He felt as though he did not need armour, and he could take on five mountain wolves with ease. He was as strong as three ordinary adult men, and upon lifting up his clothes, it revealed a rock-solid eight-pack that shone with a bronze lustre.
No ordinary person should hurt me with their hands and feet now, he thought. His breathing method has carried him incredibly far.
He estimates that he is five times as fit as an ordinary adult, which is similar to that of Knight Fred.
To become a Great Knight like his father and to be ten times as fit as an ordinary person was simply a dream that he was getting closer and closer to.
