Chapter 1

The sun scorched the world with its own presence.

No matter how much time passes, the sun will always be a ray of hope in people's eyes...

In an unknown forest...

Among the bushes and towering trees lay the body of a boy. The boy's appearance was very attractive, so much so that many would not refuse to play with him.

Suddenly, the boy opened his eyes and his expression showed surprise, but it disappeared as quickly as it appeared...

"I wonder where I am?" - Getting to his feet, he shook himself out and began to wonder what forest he was in, but he didn't have to wait long for an answer. [You are in one of the forests in France. It's not easy to determine exactly where yet.] - Gray said.

"In France? I wonder... What year is it, Gray?" - Gray asked with intrigue. If his guess is confirmed, then everything will take a very interesting turn...

[It is now 1419 since the birth of Christ.] - said Gray.

There was a slight smile on Ryan's face, which later turned into a wry smile. "My destiny really takes an unexpected turn, to find myself in the Middle Ages, where the Mystery still exists, truly incredible..."

[You have been given a quest. Please complete it.] - an interface with a quest and reward appeared in front of his face. In the interface, in addition to the list of quests, there was also an inventory along with the status.

"I should look at my status..." - mentally choosing a status, he carefully examined it.

"What's a skill card, Gray?" - he asked curiously.

[Skill cards are divided into classes, there are 5 classes in total. Common, rare, super rare, unique, divine.] - Gray explained clearly.

After listening to Gray, Ryan nodded and began to think about what he should do.

"I think it's worth leaving the forest and going towards some village or city..." Having made a decision, he began to walk through the forest at a slow and careful pace, sharpening his superhuman hearing.

Ryan opened his inventory and pulled out he's sword.

A classic iron knight's sword appeared in his hand.

Feeling the cold steel, he just sighed pleasantly.

After thinking a little, he decided to hunt local animals.

Closing his eyes, he concentrated on feeling his magical core.

Suddenly he felt a great surge of strength. "It seems like the magic core enhances my already superhuman body." - He felt almost omnipotent. Run like a sports car? No problem. Beating 200 ton safes like dough? Easily.

[I suggest not to revel in these sensations, master. By the standards of this world, you are completely weak.] - Gray said reproachfully. Part of Gray's rebuke stems from her concern for her master. She knew human nature, and understood that arrogance kills many.

Ryan shook his head and internally agreed with her words.

The next second, Ryan's gaze became cold and indifferent. His past experience as a surgeon affected his attitude towards life and death. He began to treat the death of other creatures more indifferently.

Having spread his perception, 350 meters away he felt two presences...

One of them is a large boar, and the other... A man?...

A little surprise flashed through Ryan's mind. How could a person end up in such an area?

Without dwelling on this, he immediately moved from his place, walking in the direction of the Boar and the man.

Coming closer, he saw a little girl whose face showed fear and despair. The girl herself, out of helplessness, hid behind a tree, hoping that the boar would not notice her.

Ryan shook his head. Boars can smell too well.

Accelerating, he instantly stood in front of a large boar. His appearance exuded confidence and danger.

The boar instinctively tried to run away, straining his legs, realizing that he would die upon meeting this man.

"You can't run away." - With a grin, he cut off the boar's head with one movement of his hand.

The head flew straight off the boar, and the characteristic sound of a fallen corpse was heard throughout the area.

Having hidden he's sword in his inventory, he walked slowly towards the girl who was hiding behind a tree.

"Hello, I'm a human, the boar has already left, you can go out." - Ryan said softly. He knew that with children you need to be gentle.

The girl who heard Ryan's voice breathed a sigh of relief. Looking out from under the tree, she blushed slightly. The boy in front of her was very handsome...

Coming out from under the tree, she appeared before Ryan in full view.

Ryan, in turn, experienced a slight shock, because she is Jeanne D'arc, the heroine who saved France from capitulation.

But he was not attracted by her future, but more by her personality...

Jeanne D'arc is one of the few people who retained her kindness until her death. Even after she was falsely accused of being a witch.

Ryan shook his head and concentrated on the human in front of him.

"Um... My name is Jeanne. Thanks for saving me. What's your name?" - she asked with childish curiosity.

"My name is Ryan. I came from a local village. Unfortunately, my last relatives in this world have gone to a distant land..." Ryan said sadly. From the moment he came into this world, he remembered with nostalgia his own parents, who died when he was 13 years old. At that time, his grandmother took care of him, who instilled in him his dream of becoming a surgeon.

Jeanne sensed Ryan's sadness and quickly tried to apologize. "Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings..." Ryan just shook his head and smiled. - "My relatives live somewhere up there, in heaven..."

Jeanne just nodded and asked. "How do you live here? Isn't it dangerous?" - she said with slight fear. She wanted to pick a couple of berries for her parents, but she didn't expect to meet a large boar.

Ryan was a little stuck on this question. He didn't know what to say...

Seeing the complex expression on Ryan's face, Jeanne thought for a while and an idea arose in her head. "Why don't you come with me? I think my parents will take you in," she asked with some expectation.

Ryan was surprised and thought that staying with her would really be good idea...

"Thank you, Jeanne. I think that would be good." - Ryan said with deep gratitude. He was truly amazed by her kindness, because who would dare to invite a stranger into their home?

Jeanne just smiled happily and grabbed his wrist, leading him along...

"An interesting future awaits me..." flashed through Ryan's thoughts.
