News of orcs came from the border, and most of the civilians on the border of the Kingdom of Celt were nervous, fearing that the barbaric orc troops would break through the defense line and destroy their homes.

Donald, who also received the news, was not worried at all, but became faintly excited. The children of nobles and civilian adventurers who were eager to make achievements were also thought with Donald.

Originally, the Knight Assessment and the inheritance of the title were both priority issues that Donald had given priority, but after becoming a mage apprentice, Donald didn't care about the Knight Assessment next year.

According to the royal decree, if you want to get the title of Knight, you must reach the strength of the Black Iron High Level to pass the assessment. Of course, except for the knights who have always been called aristocratic profession, as long as Donald reaches the standard of the Black Iron High Level, he can pass the Knight assessment and successfully obtain the Knight title.

At the same time, there are also assessments of aristocratic etiquette, literature and art, etc. However, these are all for ordinary civilians and small nobles. Even if the children of big nobles do not meet the standards, they will have their own ways to pass them smoothly. This is also the reason why the assessment of the early knights of various human countries is getting bigger and bigger.

If a down-and-out noble like Donald who had no fiefdom could not obtain the title of knight, then according to the rules, he would be deprived of the inheritance rights of his family's hereditary knights and lose his aristocratic status.

But now he is a formal black iron mage. According to the law of the noble inheritance, if the noble heir takes up any spell casting profession, then unless he commits the serious crime of treason and blasphemy, no one will be deprived of his due inheritance rights.

Therefore, Donald was not worried about the title. Even if he didn't participate in the Knights assessment, no one dared to deprive him of his noble status. The original worries disappeared, and the task that was oppressed on him was also removed. Now Donald not only saved his noble status, but also obtained two manors, so he focused on a larger goal.

Because Donald not only wants to preserve his noble status, but also needs more wealth, titles and even his personal territory. As long as he can make merits in the war, these can be realized one by one.

For Donald, who is in urgent need of development, orc invasion is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to make achievements.

"Only having a manor alone can only bring himself economic income and obtain a real fief, so that he can build his own army and have a foothold in this world."

"The private territory of the nobles is equivalent to their own small kingdom. How it develops at that time will be as much as I want."

Donald knew that personal force alone was not enough to protect his increasingly prosperous industries. Only a powerful army could deter the enemies of the Melina family and completely cut off their idea of ​​dealing with the Melina family.

So this small-scale war is a good opportunity for Donald to regain his family fief.

However, the news has not been clarified, and the Kingdom has not issued a conscript order to recruit nobles from various places and civilian warriors to participate in the battle, so Donald couldn't just rashly break into the border military camp.

Because the nobles have a strong sense of territory, in addition to passing by, generally, if foreign nobles enter the territory of local lords, if they intend to stay for a while, they will formally say hello to the master and report their intentions. Otherwise, they will easily be misunderstood as if they are inappropriate intent. Even if they do not take other measures, they will report to the nobles' parliamentary management office, and it is likely that they will file a lawsuit in the royal court.

This is just the territory of ordinary nobles, and Donald's destination is a strongly guarded camp of garrisons on the border of the kingdom. If you enter rashly, you will probably be treated as a spy from the enemy country.

So although Donald was anxious to prove himself, he temporarily suppressed his emotions and continued his daily life.

Since his Moonlight Wine Series appeared in the hands of the mage, after the mouths of some nobles who had a good relationship with the mage, the name of Moonlight Wine quickly set off an undercurrent in the Giant Rock City and even the entire North County.

Many nobles wanted to buy some on the market after tasting the taste and special effects from the mage. However, as the mages said, this magical wine is currently only for the mage, and it is also a work developed by a mage and has not been circulated to any merchant on the market.

Out of the politeness and habits of the mage, no one revealed Donald's identity. For the mage, betraying the same kind is an unforgivable act, although it is just to reveal a little private information. Even if there is an indesolate hatred between the two mages, it will be resolved according to the mage's rules and rarely involve others.

The wizards attach great importance to the effect of fine wine to enjoy the taste of this fine wine, so they naturally will not sell moonlight wines that are equivalent to alchemy potions and have no side effects for money.

This result made the nobles who had tasted the taste of moonlight wine even more itchy. The high-quality wines that they savored carefully in the past felt difficult to swallow, and they wanted to get the best of the wine.

The people in the lower class of this world have relatively poor living supplies, and even most of the low-level nobles eat and use, but they can barely reach the level of a well-off family in the previous life. Only those real nobles can enjoy food and entertainment from all over the world in different ways.

But their entertainment seemed particularly boring to Donald, who lived in a world where the entertainment industry was rich and colorful in his previous life and his living environment was booming rapidly.

In the past, Donald was poor and out of poverty, and it was difficult to enjoy the most basic and inferior wines, let alone fresh fruits and various foods. Now with certain conditions and strength, Donald certainly cannot continue to struggle, and some good habits that are essential to nobles must be developed.

He had taught the cooks and maids hired by Ke De to some conditions to achieve their diet in the past life. Otaku will also enjoy it. He was a regular customer of food websites in his past life.

Now his breakfast every day is made with meat steaks, sausages, fried eggs with fresh milk, juice and other simple but hearty foods. Dinner is usually fried meat, toast with fresh vegetables or soup. The chef also learned how to make pizza and pie, of course, using the ingredients of this world. During afternoon tea, there are also rich milk tea carefully prepared by the maid and light black tea, paired with simple and sweet dessert pastries made by skillfully.

There are not as many tea drink varieties in this world as in the previous life. The most common thing the nobles drink is a dairy product made of fresh milk, called Jade Leaf discovered by the wizards. Because it is very similar to milk tea in the previous life, Donald directly called it milk tea.

As for black tea, it is a herb specially found by Donald through the introduction of plant materials in alchemy pharmacy. It is of course different from the black tea in memory. This thing was originally an auxiliary material used by alchemists to configure recovery agents. After Donald's experiment, it was found that this fragrant and slightly sweet plant leaves not only tastes beautiful when brewed, but also has the effects of warming the stomach, strengthening the spleen, and aiding digestion, which has many benefits for the body. The side effects are smaller than those of the tea in previous lives, which is very suitable for daily drinking.

So the aristocratic drink black tea that became popular throughout the mainland in the future was invented in the kitchen of Donald Manor.

Although sometimes the conditions do not meet the standards, Donald cleverly improved his quality of life to the best level through his previous life experience. At present, his living conditions are much better than those of 90% of the nobles in the Stone City. It is estimated that only the largest local lord, Viscount, can often buy foreign products from his home, and compare with him in terms of type and quality.

In terms of diet, the kitchen of Viscount's Mansion is probably far from comparable to the kitchen of Donald Manor.

After all, although the recorded history of creatures in this world has been ten thousand years and the formal establishment of the human kingdom has been thousands of years. However, due to the influence of true gods and powerful professionals, human wisdom and creativity have been greatly suppressed and cannot be developed in some respects. Therefore, in terms of social structure and technological productivity, it has always been in the transition stage of slave society to feudal society.

The people at the bottom cannot get any systematic education. This is how many generations of people have come here, let alone develop novel and convenient tools and utensils.

However, a world has its own world. Although Donald has temporarily integrated into this world, he does not want to change anything. Moreover, this situation cannot be changed by a single individual force. No matter how strong an individual ability is, it often only makes a few waves in the tide of history. Some powerful existences even want to change the world, but they have been stopped even before the waves appear.

He has always been very secretive about the existence of the gods. The water in this world is too deep. Not to mention the noble gods, the legendary strong men and the forces behind various races, all made Donald extremely afraid. After all, he is a smuggler from another world, and he is also a trustless person who receives socialist education and atheism. Once such an existence is exposed, he will probably be sent to the stolen rack for human meat barbecue!

Donald didn't have that crazy ambition and just wanted to protect himself in this environment. Otherwise, once a small mortal appeared, the gods in the starry sky would not have to stretch out a finger and send a high-level believer to easily kill him.
