(Why Here)

Chapter 3: Is This Really a Beginning/Pt 2.



"Well this is interesting." I said with a hideous smile, only for me to immediately get my bearings back and remember the plus sign by health on my status and clicked on it.

[STATUS]

[Health: You are very healthy but the previous owner was poisoned to death]

"What the fuck." I said with surprise while just now realizing my spanish accent, only to immediately put my attention back too what my status said.

I rubbed my forehead and thought while searching the memories of the previous owner "Who poisoned the former owner"

I sighed again not finding anything useful in the memories of the previous owner and started tapping my finger on the desk, only to pause and say "It must have been someone who is also in the line of succession and the only people I can think of are my uncle and stepmother."

"Yes it has to be one of them unless I'm missing something here too which I don't think I am." I said to myself, not knowing in the slightest that it makes me look crazy.

I sighed and threw the thoughts of the previous owners death to the back of my mind and turned my attention back to my status, wondering if I can view my perk and tapped on it to see if I can view more information about it.

[DING!]

[Perfect Health: By having the perk perfect health you will never get sick and will always be healthy, but it also makes you stronger than a full grown man despite your current age and also comes with a healing factor which will slow your aging process when you turn 20 years old but remember despite having a healing factor it is not on deadpools or wolverines level it is very much weaker and can only heal serious level injuries like amputations, broken bones, burns, concussions, internal organ damage, spinal cord injuries, stab or puncture wounds, and

traumatic brain injuries, which are examples of the level of your healing factor and the list of injuries are as follow, minor injury, moderate injury, serious injury, severe injury, critical injury, maximal injury, but be warned you can still die]

"Well at least I have something to help me survive so I'm not gonna complain." I said to myself, because something is better than nothing in my opinion and I can best an adult despite my current age which is a win for me and the former owner knew how to wield a sword which is even better In my opinion and I can also train in swordsmanship to become a master or maybe even a grandmaster.

I dismissed my status window and looked down at my desk and seen a document and a blueprint document on it and picked it up and seen it was the dukedom of medina sidonia asking for a loan for the reconstruction of cazaza which if I remember correctly wasn't rebuilt even in the 21st century which was already to late and the former owner is only a bastard child and was about to help rebuild a city to get some profit out of it which is kinda laughable in my opinion because his father gave him the title of a bastard at birth but let's him handle some affairs of the county which is even more laughable but still better than most bastard's but if I remember correctly the marquistate of cazaza was already destroyed in 1533 from betrayal of five of its garrison which I'm not mad about at all an can make a huge footprint in this city and build it however I see fit so I ought to thank him for making me start from scratch and luckily the previous owner already helped the dukedom of medina sidonia reclaim the city by purging the traitors along with the soldiers and people who decided to follow them which deepend the friendship between the duke and I, perks to the previous owner treading carefully of course because he could've put the county's welalth in jeopardy if he had made a wrong decision by failing the negotiation with duke juan alonso perez de guzman and I bet your wondering how the former owner came to have these little connections and resources despite being a bastard it's because he gained recognition from the count for his military achievements in the arauco war which in turn the count granted him knighthood and a little bit of management rights of the county's territories.

I chuckled and started reading over the documents, only for my face to turn sour at how ugly the city's layout is and thought "Luckily the former owner has some say in how the city can be reconstructed and luckily he didn't show this to anyone because they would've thought this was my design which makes me glad that I took over just in time."

I sighed and put the paper to the side to look at the layout which was bad but wasn't that bad and i decided to just improve it and make it better an grabbed another sheet of paper and a pen and dipped the pen in black ink and started drawing on a big sheet of paper while occasionally glancing at the former owners design once in awhile.

TIMESKIP: a couple minutes later.

"Finally I'm done." I said while putting the pen down and leaning back in the chair, taking a breather while looking at the construction layout on the document which displays a huge city layout which will cost a fortune but nothing the county can't handle.

While I was too engrossed in my thoughts i snapped out of it immediately from the sudden commotion coming from outside the study which also seemed to be heading towards my study door.

*KNOCK* *KNOCK* *KNOCK*

"SIR ADAN THERE IS URGENT NEWS." Said a male servant's voice loudly from behind the door.

I adjusted my seating position and attire and said calmly "You may enter."

The door opened and walked in a distressed handsome light skinned well built 6'2 young man with neck length slicked back brown hair and light gray eyes in a luxerious attire.

"Is it true." Asked the man with obvious distress in his voice, walking up to my desk.

I stared at the man for a moment, racking my brain to find out who hell this man is and found out that he is lord sebastian le garcia, lordship of beas and was an ally of the former owner to help in the succession of the county.

"Is what true lord garcia." I asked calmly, really wondering if the former owner was planning a coup on his father which wasn't really in my plans not that I had any at the moment since I'm still adjusting the reality of me being reincarnated but if I did have plans there are two options for me currently one is too gain my own title and rise in the nobility rank through my own achievements which will be difficult as a afro spaniard and bastard child and the second is to become the count of niebla and if your wondering why my new last name is the same as the county it's because it was founded and named by my ancestor calhixto juan niebla 3,000 years ago and the title of count being granted to my other ancestor calhixto juan niebla viii in 756 bc by king romulus making him the first count of niebla.

Sebastian took a deep breath to calm himself down and walked to the window and looked at the city from it and said with a sigh "I'm talking about participating in this war, aren't you suspicious about why you received a letter from the count and your brother didn't despite being a year younger than you."

My face turned ugly and said with surprise "Wait...my brother didn't get asked to participate in this war."

Sebastian turned to look at me immediately and said with surprise "You didn't know, the countess recommended you."

"She recommended me." I thought with surprise while feeling like she is planning something against me which is probably to send me off to war too have me killed so her son doesn't have any challenges in the line of succession which is what a typical noblewomen would do for her son especially if her husband has a bastard child that he rewarded or shown a little favoritism towards with me being the rewarded one and she is also probably gonna try to try an kill my mother and sister when I leave in a couple of day's.

I sighed and said "There's nothing i can do about it now since I already sent a letter back to my father explaining that I would go, not that I had a choice in the marrer anyway."

"It seems so." Said sebastian with a loud sigh, knowing the cruelty of reality.

"But I can move them into my mansion." I said with a smile since why do think my father dearest had another child with my mother after me it's obviously because he can't stop lusting after my mother despite not liking her and if your confused my father the count has 5 children which is me adan alfonso dpe niebla, my new little sister liliana marie de niebla, my half brother alfonso juan de niebla ii, my half sister catalina ynes de niebla, and my other half sister beatriz ysabel de niebla.

Sebastian had a confused face and asked "Move who into your mansion."

"I'm talking about my mother and sister." I said calmly while being glad on the inside that the former owner was a little rich but not to the point of being able to cover a city an entire empire.

Sebastian immediately nodded and said with a serious face while walking back in front of my desk "That would be for the best because the countess will take the utmost pleasure in getting rid of you, your mother and sister and I'm sure the count wouldn't even bat an eye at your deaths."

"I'm sure he wouldn't." I said calmly, not really giving a fuck about the man since I'm mainly prioritizing my own survival and really have no time to worry about other people's lives when I can die any second just by one of the nobles ordering my execution which wouldn't be funny at all.

I got up from my chair and looked lord garcia in his eyes and said with a serious face "I would be discreet if I were you since it wouldn't do you any good to let people know that you have a good relationship with me."

Sebastian nodded and said with a tired sigh "I will keep you updated if I find what the countesses next move is."

I nodded and said "It was a pleasure speaking with you lord garcia."

Sebastian nodded and shook my hand and excused himself and left the study, leaving me time to ponder again by myself.

"This life sure will be dangerous and adventurous" I thought while plopping back into my chair to focus on the loan the duke medina wanted, only for my mind to wonder about how much money the forner owner had before I took over.

I sighed and picked the pen back up and dippped it into some black ink and thought while looking at a stack of papers that I just now realized we're there "Lets deal with this paperwork first and then indulge my curiosity"
