Global Civilization: Just an Ordinary Lord Talent

On the first day of the 22nd century, an unusual event takes place when people find themselves transmigrated to a different world called [Main Plane]. As they awaken, a user interface resembling RPG genre in video games appears, offering a choice between two roles: Traveler or Lord. Confusion reigns as people flock to the Earthen World Chat feature, seeking answers about their sudden displacement. An electrifying conversation ensues, filled with curiosity and disbelief. Anonymous users flood the chat, their words buzzing with excitement. Anonymous: "Hello?" Anonymous: "What's going on? I suddenly spawned in the middle of nowhere next to a strange building when I chose to become a Lord." Anonymous: "Me too!" Anonymous: "Hahaha, guess what? I ended up with an Extraordinary Lord Talent called 'Church of Light' (Epic-Grade Talent). It is said that this building can summon Paladins for me!" Anonymous: "Are you serious? Did we actually transmigrate into a fantasy world?" Anonymous: "I chose to be a Traveler, and here I am, spawned inside the grand cathedral of an Empire! They offered me to become a Dragon Knight!" Anonymous: "What? This is unfair! I also chose to be a Traveler but spawned inside a house in a small village. They didn't even offer me anything(T_T)." Amidst the fervor in the chat, Arthur quietly observes as a notification appears in his UI Panel: [Congratulations, you have received an Ordinary Lord Talent, Persuasion (Legendary-Grade Talent)] "Huh? Ordinary?" "Whatever... this is my second chance, I won't let it slip away!" "Angel Race? Dragon Race?" "Pfft..." "I'll even make the Gods listen and cower before my Persuasion!"

Battle's Loot, Hall of Fame

Altrove stood before Arthur, his demeanor calm and collected. "My Lord," he began, "after the battle with the Second Battalion of Moon Frost City, there are a total of 679 elven soldiers left on our side who are still alive. Most of them have suffered slight injuries, while around 27 are gravely wounded."

Garret also stepped forward. "My Lord, we lost 12 of our bandits in the battle," he reported. "The rest have only sustained slight injuries, and three have more serious wounds."

Arthur nodded, taking in the information. However, deep down, Arthur felt a pang of regret for the fallen soldiers and bandits, but he also knew that their sacrifice had been necessary to achieve victory against the previous elven army and the Second Battalion of Moon Frost City. He had hoped for a clean and decisive win, but battles were never without casualties.

The casualties among the elven army were substantial, but he knew that Moon Frost City wouldn't stop there. They would likely send reinforcements to deal with the perceived threat of Dawn Light Village.

"And what about our gains?" Arthur asked, turning his attention to Garret.

"As for the gains," Garret continued, his voice carrying a note of pride, "we have managed to loot all the bodies and gained 536 White-Tier Sprit Crystal, 21 Blue-Tier Spirit Crystal, 232 Sets of useable White-Grade Armor. And we also have managed to secure the bandit camp under Donnel and the bandit camp under Gregor while my lord is fighting against the Second Battalion of Moon Frost City. Aside from the loot we've acquired, we were able to free 55 captives and 18 bandits who wish to submit under Dawn Light Village as your subjects, including one of the Bandit Leader, Donnel."

Arthur's eyes lit up at the news. The addition of armor sets was crucial for his current army as he was still short on supplying large quantities of armor sets while knowing that his army would continue to grow in size as time went on. Even though he had Marcus as his Village's blacksmith, he still lacked the armor set blueprints.

Also, with the new subjects, it would strengthen his village and provide valuable manpower and skills. He was pleased that one of the remaining Bandit Leader had chosen to submit rather than continue his life as a bandit. As Arthur now possessed the strength of a White-High Tier, he now had nothing to fear from someone at the Bandit Leader level.

Garret's expression turned serious as he delivered the next piece of information. "However, several bandits managed to escape, including Gregor, the remaining Bandit Leader."

Arthur nodded, his mind already turning to the next steps he needed to take. The gains were significant, but the threat from Moon Frost City still loomed large. He knew that he had to remain vigilant and continue to build the strength of Dawn Light Village.

At least, for the time being he no longer had to worry about the remaining bandits, because with his current army, the risk of bandits wouldn't pose a threat to his current village.

"Good work," Arthur said with a determined look in his eyes. "Now let's go back to our village."

[Title Description: This title represents the legend of an individual who faced insurmountable odds, emerging victorious despite being outnumbered a thousand to one.]

`A Title!` Arthur gasped in excitement as he saw the system notification stating that he had earned a title.

In the vast and boundless Main Plane, where countless Lords, and Travelers roamed, achieving something truly extraordinary was no small feat. When a Lord or Traveler accomplished a remarkable feat, the System would bestow upon them a prestigious Title, a mark of their accomplishments and a symbol of their power.

The granting of Titles was not a simple matter, for the system carefully assessed and measured the magnitude of the achievement. Each Title was unique and befitting to the individual who earned it, based on their efforts and results.

Titles not only conferred prestige and recognition but also granted unique benefits and abilities. For example, Arthur's new title [The One-Man Army] which granted him not only the Aura and Enhanced Mentality Army, but it also granted a skill [The one who becomes a whirlwind of destruction] which was a strength-boosting skill.

And on top of that, Titles also confer Reputation, which could greatly assist Lords and Travelers in increasing their fame in Main Plane. Travelers could earn more gains from quests as their Reputation increased, Lords could have the opportunity for high level professions to come and become their subjects.

Moreover, once one obtained Reputation, their name would be listed in the Main Plane Hall of Fame. It is the only platform that will feature the Reputation Ranking of the entire Races, Local Planes, and Main Plane.

[Hall of Fame feature has been unlocked]

Arthur's attention was fully drawn to the Hall of Fame feature.

As Arthur glanced at the list Hall of Fame feature on the Main Plane, he couldn't help but feel a mixture of awe and trepidation. The list was a testament to the immense power and influence that some Lords and Travelers had achieved in the Main Plane. The names on the list sounded like thunderous echoes, reverberating through the ages, and their reputations preceded them wherever they went. He took a deep breath and began to contemplate the significance of this list.

[Main Plane-Hall of Fame]

[1. Eternal Wanderer-Eon (Traveler): 21,300 Reputation]

[2. Radiant Seraph-Celestia (Lord): 14,600 Reputation]

[3. Starcaller-Orion(Lord): 13,800 Reputation]

[5. Unyielding Guardian-Aegis (Lord): 5,900 Reputation]

[6. Shadow Sovereign-Nyx (Lord): 5,300 Reputation]

[7. Dragon Slayer-Thane (Traveler): 4,800 Reputation]

...

His eyes fixated on the top three names. These were the legendary figures and known as the Absolute Entities, the ones whose names would echo through the ages, unyielding and immutable even after thousands of years in his previous life.

Arthur had heard tales of the Absolute Entities, legendary figures whose names had become synonymous with mysteries and greatness. The top-ranked individual, "Eternal Wanderer-Eon", was said to be a Traveler of extraordinary talent, Eon's race was still a mystery even after thousands of years in his previous life. Tales of Eon's exploits had become the stuff of legends, and it was rumored that Eon possessed a unique Talent that allowed them to manipulate time itself.

In the second position was "Radiant Seraph-Celestia" a Lord hailing from the Angel Race. Angels were beings of divine power, known for their ethereal beauty and angelic wings. Celestia's Talent was the "Divine Judgement," a power that allowed her to summon divine protection and divine light. Her abilities were said to be unmatched, and she was revered as a guardian angel to her people. In Arthur's previous life, the Human Race was slaughtered by this power.

In the third position, Starcaller-Orion, was a Lord from Spirit Race who was said to have mastery over the stars and constellations. However, Orion's Lord Talent was still a mystery for thousands of years in Arthur's previous life, and all of his accomplishments were recounted by Orion's subordinates that scattered throughout the Main Plane.

...

[1,128,923. One-man Army-Arthur (Lord): 10 Reputation]

Arthur's eyes finally settled on his own rank - 1,128,923. A sense of disappointment washed over him as he realized just how far down the list he was. He had hoped that his achievements after reincarnating would have propelled him higher since it was only the third day, but it seemed he still had a long way to go.

~Sigh

"Are humans really that insignificant compared to them?" Arthur wondered aloud. He couldn't help but feel a tinge of envy for those Races who had already reached the pinnacle of success in the Main Plane at this early stage. He had worked tirelessly to build his Territory for the last three days, but it seemed that his efforts were still not enough.

Despite these feelings of self-doubt, Arthur's confident remained unyielding. He knew that comparing himself to others would only hinder his growth. Each individual's journey in the Main Plane was unique, and he couldn't let himself be disheartened by the accomplishments of others.

...

Few hours later, as Arthur and his entire army returned to his territory, all of their expressions suddenly became one of shock.

"Where's my Village?!"

Sorry I've had a fever for the past two days, and only had time to finish this chapter today...
