3 weeks after jake dealt with the king, the king sent jake a carriage for him to travel to Dunbar additionally the king also decided to gift him 500 pieces of gold and a squad of guards to help jake repel the bandits.
On week 1 the guards that the king sent me were all stubborn and prideful pricks barely listening to my orders when I told them to so I decided on teaching them a lesson by grabbing one of them and chopping his head off, at first they were shocked that I did such a thing the next thing I did was I mind control them to make them have absolute loyalty, I quickly released my control over the previous guards that I first decided to test the mind control power on and released them to my current group of guards.
It only took 3 minutes before they all kneeled to me and loudly yelled "All hail his lordship jake, long may he live" they all shouted until I told them to stop, after it was finished we quickly continue down the road.
As my group of guards continued to follow jake in the road a mechanical voice sounded in jake's mind.
-----------------Due to the host has used low-level mind control plenty of times----------------the low level mind-controlled has been upgraded into mid-level mind control, has the ability to control 100 people----------------Congratulations on the host for upgrading the skill mind control, a reward has been gifted to the host----------
As jake heard the contents of the system, jake quickly opened his inventory, what jake saw made jake extremely excited, in his inventory lies a training manual it can train his men 5x faster than normal additionally it also teaches his men battle moves and tactics, the manual that jake got was called the berserker manual it can increase his men training time by 10x additionally it also teaches his men an usher and intimidation tactics to lower the enemies morale.
of course, the manual is not perfect for it has a side-effect to his men, his men become engrossed in battle after time and slowly losing their mind to become a man that only knows how to kill and can't differentiate a friend and an enemy.
after jake got the manual he immediately made his group of guards train under the manual.
after 1 more week has passed the men that have trained under the manual no longer looked arrogant and high full. instead, they looked bloodthirsty and eager to go to battle perhaps because God heard jakes men a group of men suddenly appeared when they were almost in Dunbar, what happened was a massacre jakes men quickly took care of them, the battle only lasted 2 minutes before the bandits where scared unlike a normal group of guards who would only kill them with one stroke of their sword this group was extremely cruel leaving people alive just for them to torture them, in the end, a man was extremely pitiful he was split in half under jakes berserkers.
after the battle lasted jake decided to make the remaining survivors of the bandit group his slaves, after 1 more week he finally arrived at Dunbar as jake looked around jake instantly knew why the king decided to give him land instead of only giving him a noble title because this land was extremely barren, the houses were riddled with holes, the crops were barely standing and the manor that was also in the village looked like it hasn't been clean for days, as jake looked at the numerous problems that arrived jake grinned at least it wouldn't be boring.
