Having acquired two new skills, Eric felt a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. Recognizing that it is already late, he decided it was time to depart. He made his way to the teleportation array and used it to exit the library, concluding his task for the day.

The guards tasked with protecting the library were surprised to see the young master leave the library late, which was an unusual occurrence. However, they refrained from inquiring about his activities, understanding that it was not their place to do so.

"With these two new skills, I have the potential to greatly enhance my abilities and achieve the life I desire," Eric thought to himself with satisfaction. "Today marks the start of my journey. But I must be careful to keep my newfound abilities hidden, as my father may become suspicious"

Eric made his way to his room, contemplating the importance of keeping his newly acquired abilities a secret. He knew that revealing his newfound strength could potentially lead to problems and unwanted attention from his father. He resolves to remain low-key, not revealing his strength until he is powerful enough to defend himself.

Eric spent the night in his room, where he enjoyed a delicious dinner that was brought to him by the maids. The meal consisted of a variety of dishes, including succulent roast beef, seasoned with herbs and spices, served with a side of creamy mashed potatoes. The food was beautifully presented and tasted as good as it looked. Eric savor every bite and felt contented after finishing his meal.

Following dinner, Eric made the decision to spend some time outside and enjoy the fresh air in the garden. The garden was a peaceful and serene place, with a variety of different flowers and trees that created a picturesque scenery.

He walked around the garden and then found a place to rest. He chose a spot under a large oak tree, that offered him a comfortable and shaded spot. He leaned against the trunk of the tree and took in the beauty of the garden around him.

It was a perfect place to clear his mind and reflect on his day. While he was there, he met some guards who were on patrol duty, they greeted him and continued their rounds.

As Eric sat under the oak tree, he began to ponder his future plans. Now that he had acquired the system, he felt a sense of freedom and a desire to continue to increase his strength. However, he knew that his father would not allow him to leave the villa until he turned 12, as that is considered the age of adulthood in this world.

Therefore, Eric decided that he would spend the next few years focusing on developing himself within the safety and comfort of the villa.

He also decided that he will not reveal his strength to anyone, and wait until he is strong enough. This plan would ensure that he will be prepared for any challenges that may arise when he finally leaves the villa and starts his journey.

With that, Eric dedicated the majority of his time at the villa. He also made sure to visit his father every day and watched his brother train in the morning, and later in the day, he would spend most of his time in the garden, relaxing and sleeping under the shade of the trees.

Before Eric knew it, two years had passed. During this time, a number of significant events occurred. One of the most notable was his brother's acceptance into the prestigious Five Leaf Royal Academy. This academy was established by a powerful kingdom, and although Eric was not entirely familiar with the specifics of the academy or the kingdom, he knew that his father has mentioned they were much more powerful than their own family.

During the two years that passed, Eric can be found in the garden, using it as a place to relax and recuperate. He would often be sleeping soundly at the top of a branch of a tree, using the sturdy branch as a bed. The branch he chose was in a tall Oak tree, it was thick and strong enough to hold his weight, and it was also close to the trunk so that he could climb up and down easily.

He had made a comfortable nest at the top by weaving leaves and branches together, He had a good view of the garden from his perch and the gentle swaying of the branch was soothing and helped him to sleep soundly.

As Eric woke up, he couldn't help but marvel at the beautiful afternoon that greeted him. The sky was a clear blue with a few fluffy clouds, the sun was shining brightly and the temperature was just right, not too hot and not too cold. The gentle breeze carried the fragrance of blooming flowers and the chirping of birds could be heard in the background, it was the perfect weather for a pleasant outdoor experience.

Two years have now passed and he felt that he has spent enough time preparing himself. He felt ready to venture out into the world and see what it had to offer.

Eric's strength has seen significant growth over the past two years, due to his system. He had surpassed his brother's abilities when he is at the age of 16 and was now much stronger than his brother was at that time. He had a powerful and agile body and honed swordsmanship skills. He felt confident that he was ready to explore the world.

As Eric woke up, he gracefully descended from the tree, his movements were smooth and effortless, revealing his strength and agility. As h reached the ground, he made a conscious effort to adjust his posture and movements, pretending to be the weak and fragile young master that his father expects him to be.

As he walked towards his room, he moved slowly and lethargically, as if he was still half asleep, he keep his head down and his shoulder slumped, giving the impression that he was unassuming.

After arriving at his room, Eric requested some snacks for him to enjoy. Then the maid delivers a tray filled with a variety of savory and sweet treats, including warm bread, fresh fruit, and cheese. There was also a pot of tea, which he poured into a delicate porcelain cup and sipped slowly, enjoying the warmth and the aroma.

After finishing his snack, Eric began to prepare himself for his visit to his father. He knew that he had to look presentable and respectable, so he took great care in selecting his clothing.
