Compared to the swaying of the ship’s cabin, having a house to live in and a bed to sleep on was like living in a dream.

Even Hailbo, beyond the awareness of being a good, obedient slave, fell in love with this place from the bottom of his heart.

It was quiet here, peaceful, with humans living in harmony with nature.

It was, truly, too beautiful…

“Toot!!”

At 5:30 in the morning, just as dawn was breaking over the horizon, a sharp whistle sound suddenly pierced the air.

“What’s that noise?!”

Hailbo and Yilona almost reflexively jumped out of bed, with the latter immediately rushing to the door of her younger sister’s room.

The former, on the other hand, flipped out the window and crouched, lurking at the edge of a bush.

“What is that sound?”

“Idiot, that’s the whistle to wake you up. What’s with the big reaction?”

“Hmm?”

Hailbo jolted, quickly scanning his surroundings in search of the source of the voice.

But strangely, aside from a silver-white eagle perched atop a tree, he found nothing.

“Who’s there? Who’s speaking?”

“It’s daylight, and you’re not blind.”

“…….”

The first time was a surprise, but the second time, Hailbo stared fixedly at Baiying Yin. His mouth agape, he then tremulously pointed at it: “You, you’re speaking, the eagle, the eagle is speaking!!!”

Why would an eagle talk?

How could such a thing be possible?

Hailbo thought about the terrifying black cat from before and fully understood why it had posed such a huge threat to him.

If the animals here were little fairies capable of speech, then naturally, they were not something a mere mortal like himself could handle.

“Could this actually be the mythical Immortal Realm my mother once told me about?”

While Hailbo was reeling from his worldview being upended, he was also immensely excited. “I, I’ve come to the Immortal Realm?”

“Immortal Realm?”

The term ‘Immortal Realm’ in the language of the Kingdom of Mountains was lost on Baiying Yin, but it quickly found the corresponding term ‘Immortal Realm’ in the Yatun lexicon.

“You sure have a way with words, kid,” Baiying Yin remarked before vanishing from Hailbo’s sight: “Gone, it’s gone!”

“I’m right here.”

The next moment, a white eagle, standing upright like a warrior, appeared behind Hailbo.

“What exactly are you?”

“Why can you talk?”

“Is this really the Immortal Realm, have I been chosen, have I been selected by the great Heroic Spirits?”

Baiying Yin did not know Hailbo’s mythological stories, and it did not explain. It simply told him, “You have indeed been chosen, but not by any mere Heroic Spirits, but by our great Your Majesty.”

“Your Majesty?”

Hailbo asked, “Are you speaking of the Supreme Lord of Yatun?”

“Your address pleases me, befitting of the grace that Your Majesty personally bestowed upon me to come find you.”

“What do I need to do?!”

At this moment, Hailbo was extremely excited; he was a talented individual.

And now, Your Majesty of Yatun had chosen him.

How could this not fill Hailbo with gratitude!

“Rest assured, I’m willing to do anything.”

Hailbo was eager for a chance to demonstrate his talents, and he would be fiercely loyal: “Even if it requires sacrificing my life, it does not matter.”

His mother had taught Hailbo that only a death befitting a hero could bring true glory.

That was what Hailbo longed for most in life.

Not to live a humble existence, but to die a glorious death!

“You’re still too weak,” said Baiying Yin.

“Then, why reveal yourself to me…”

“Because you’re talented,” Baiying Yin said. “My lord admires you, or else Your Majesty wouldn’t have sent me over to unveil to you the secrets of this island.”

This place was not a common island but a holy land, a paradise where greatness and glory converged!

Hailbo was absolutely certain of this.

At last, he found his destination.

“Is it just me?”

Hailbo felt he shouldn’t ask, yet he was still young, and young people always hope that they are special.

“Beside you, there are two others.”

Two others?!

Hailbo thought of Yilona, but he did not ask directly, as that would be too impolite.

“You are very sensible.”

Baiying Yin, having seen the fairies’ descriptions of Hailbo, stated, “Apart from you, there is Ina and that kid who weighs more than three hundred pounds.”

“Big Chunk! He, he was chosen too? That’s great!”

Hailbo took care of the simple ‘kid who weighs three hundred pounds’ like a younger brother, and hearing that he could stand out made Hailbo genuinely happy, “Then, what about Yilona? Forgive my bluntness, but he is also very…”

“When the time comes, you will know.”

As Baiying Yin spoke, he took out something that resembled a pendant, “Now, wear this.”

Hailbo was puzzled, yet he still put it on: “Is this, a reward?”

The craftsmanship of the pendant was quite remarkable, clearly the work of a master (designed by an old uncle). Hailbo had the ability to discern its value.

This thing was expensive, very very expensive.

“I also wear one, try guessing what it’s for.”

Baiying Yin intentionally tested him, so he took out a similar pendant. Hailbo instantly said, “Could this be a symbol of status? A Yatun citizen?”

“To become a citizen, kid, you are jumping the gun.”

The pendant given to Hailbo was a fairy tool, but it had only defensive functions and no life-saving features.

Plus, it wasn’t a weapon, lacking killing power, so it seemed more like protection for this potential stock.

“Also, don’t tell anyone about these things.”

Baiying Yin: “You are smart and should know what to do.”

“I know.”

“Very good.”

The figure of Baiying Yin disappeared but left behind a phrase, “Tonight, go to the forest, and you will learn the truth about this world.”

These children were not allowed to cross the forest, but merely entering it without going deep still posed no problem.

Besides, this was Baiying Yin’s directive and not an arbitrary intrusion.

“Hurry, hurry up, get to the gathering place!”

The whistle came from the central church building in the plaza, with 120 boys and girls quickly dressing and then rushing over.

And there, Nors was waiting for them.

“Half of you are late, you are the worst batch I’ve ever led!!”

Right off the bat, Nors gave them a zero for their assembly, followed by running around the plaza.

Early in the morning, regardless of boys or girls, they all had to go for a run.

After, they began the breakfast arranged for them by the people of Yatun, as well as basic courses including Yatun Language, Ethics and Morality, and military training.

It was during this time that the children realized the true purpose of coming to Yatun Island — to become soldiers.

Yes, they were brought to the island to serve as soldiers.

There was no resentment, no dissatisfaction.

As slaves, whatever treatment they received was reasonable and justified.

However, upon receiving this news, different children still exhibited different attitudes.

Like Hailbo, who had encountered Baiying Yin before and was very certain that Yatun Island was a holy land transcending the mortal realm, and being able to train here was simply a grace.

And Ina, she just wanted to show her worth, so she wasn’t afraid of fighting at all.

As long as they didn’t send her away, she was willing to do anything!

Compared to them, Yilona was quite worried, not for himself but for Ju Nono.

Because Ju Nono just didn’t seem like an excellent soldier.

She was at the bottom of the run, and couldn’t complete the assigned training.

Her learning ability was fine, but Yilona wasn’t sure what Yatun would have them do.

If they truly went to the battlefield, then his sister, would undoubtedly die!

It was only at this moment that Yilona realized Hailbo’s foresight: ‘Sometimes, being a maid really isn’t so bad.’
