Chapter 4 Pleasing Yourself
Vijay woke up to a pungent smell of curry and turmeric.
I opened my eyes on the sandalwood bed, which was only a few square meters in size, and felt the soft velvet mattress beneath me. I gently lifted the thin silk.
Turning my head, I immediately saw Maya busy at the dining table in the room, having already prepared today's brunch.
If there's one thing Li Weijie is most dissatisfied with after transmigrating, it's probably the food here.
Despite the food being meticulously prepared by the Maya, and even if his stomach was used to it, facing those strange vegetarian dishes with various spices was still a great test for Li Weijie's eyes and mind.
"Master, you're awake!" Only Maya's ever-present clear smile touched Vijay, brightening his mood as well.
After Maya helped him dress, put on his shoes, and put on various accessories, Vijay sat down at the dining table.
On the spread-out banana leaves, the snow-white rice grains were distinct, along with wheat pancakes, curry stewed mixed vegetables, and yogurt salad. What pleased him most was that there was actually a whole roasted chicken today.
After a simple and clean breakfast, Vijay carried the box of his harvest from the previous night to the village well.
This well is located in the very center of the small village, and it is as old as the village itself. It was located by the grandfather himself, who then led the Shudra servants to dig the well shovel by shovel.
At the village's peak, the well contained enough water to sustain over a hundred Shudra servants, along with thousands of Dalits in the village.
When the trading season arrives, or when the weather gets hot, the well will be filled with merchants from all over the country. They will call out their wares and display their goods while drinking freely from the sweet well water and sincerely praising the Mittal family.
But now, it's all empty.
The Dalits, who used to gather around nearby, were unwilling to linger near a dry well that no longer yielded water.
Vijay stood at the edge of the well and looked down. He could see the bottom of the well at a glance: cracked soil, mottled well bricks, and fresh signs of digging... but there was no sign of the spring of life that sustained everything!
After a moment's hesitation, Li Weijie took out yesterday's spoils, opened the box, and took out half of the snow pearls, holding them in his hand.
Vijay's body was preventing him from taking the next step, and in the nooks and crannies of his mind, the precepts of the scriptures concerning the untouchables and the rules that lords should follow were churning repeatedly in his mind.
But these don't seem to be much of a disturbance.
Following his heart, Li Weijie stretched out his palm, opened it, and dozens of snowflakes tumbled and reflected a dazzling light before falling into the dark brown bottom of the well.
The spring water, which had only ever been used by commoners, was now being reserved for the nobility for the first time.
Just a moment later, Vijay felt the air around him suddenly become humid. Centered on the snow droplets, a thin liquid began to gather, the temperature around him suddenly dropped, and water droplets began to appear on his body.
The icy water swept over him again, washing away some of the decaying dust from Vijay's head, and he felt a sense of relief.
"Follow your heart, and you will successfully please yourself."
'Add 1 talent point, 3 talent points remaining.'
Oh! Is this what it means to follow your heart?
Vijay seemed to understand something, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
『梵语（1/2）、体魄（1/2）、全御（1/2）』
Staring at the options in the system, which he considered his trump card and greatest reliance, Vijay was eager to try them out.
How do we test it? Naturally, we'll start with the place where we can best confirm it!
Vijay turned away from the well, which was gradually overflowing, and made his way to his private training ground in the village, ready to begin today's training.
This is also a bodily instinct. Ever since he transmigrated here, no matter how absurd and indulgent he was the night before, his body would always urge him to come here in the morning.
The hammering and forging that I've been doing for over a decade is deeply ingrained in my bones.
First, train the body's basic movements with Gadda, then practice swordsmanship and archery.
This was the most rudimentary technique he had learned from the temples of Harappa.
The body-building techniques known as Calariat are the most widespread basic training methods for warriors on this land.
Everyone who embarks on this path of martial arts knows that as long as one trains the Calariat to a certain level, one can reach the realm of the Yoda (warrior).
Only when a warrior reaches the level of a samurai can he be considered to have truly embarked on the right path.
Even the demigod warriors who roamed the continent began from this point.
It's too early to covet higher realms, a fact that Vijay, who has been practicing for over a decade, understands very well.
In his memory, even though he had worked so hard that he had never slacked off for a single day, and had not lacked anything in terms of diet and herbs, he was still still some distance from Ashvaroshi's level.
While thinking, he reached out and grasped the 100-kilogram Garda, and the next second his body moved naturally.
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart or slightly wider, toes slightly turned out, knees slightly bent, core engaged, shoulders relaxed, and breathing in!
Gada swung his sword, creating a whooshing sound.
After a few movements, I felt a little sluggish, but it was still quite easy to do.
In the past, at this time, he would have been completely absorbed, carefully feeling every movement of his body, every groan of his muscles.
But the vague image he had last seen yesterday kept replaying in his mind.
A squad of fully armed soldiers from the city lord's army surveyed the scene.
What if they find traces that haven't been cleaned up yet?
The faint sense of unease made him freeze in his tracks. His hand slipped, and the heavy Jada fell heavily to the ground, kicking up a thick cloud of dust.
Brahma above, this is a divine warning!
Although I think I did a pretty good job last night...
But what if that group of people really follows the trail and comes here?
His memory offered no answers; perhaps Vijay Milta, a man of principle and tradition, had never encountered such a predicament before.
Li Weijie did not have it either.
Judging from the knowledge he has acquired in the past, there are only a few options: seek external assistance, confront head-on, or play dumb.
But what's Mirta's situation now? Even ordinary merchants, the Vaishyas and Shudras, dare to loudly call him a penniless wretch...
Pretending to be stupid? Vijay didn't have the idiotic idea of entrusting his life to the mercy of Lord Kshatriya!
We can only rely on the system!
If you can't think of a good solution, then strengthen your own power first!
Vijay focused on the immediate issue, deciding not to delve into the details of each choice, but to start with the most pressing and intuitive aspects!
『梵语（1/2）、体魄（1/2）、全御（1/2）』
Add some points!
Physical Fitness (2/2)
Thinking this, his body felt as if it had been suddenly filled with a clear spring, washing over every muscle.
Even under the scorching sun overhead, he could feel waves of comfort.
However, this feeling came quickly and dissipated just as quickly, like an illusion.
But the weight of the Gada in my hand suddenly felt much lighter, and the feeling of swinging it was so smooth. Countless insights came to my mind, as if this sudden increase in power was the result of my own hard work and refinement!
So captivating, so incredibly so!
It's comparable to the pleasure of that instant release!
It makes you want to play another round!
"Master! Brahma above, my esteemed master," Bim jogged along, his voice growing louder as he approached.
Looking up, Vijay saw Bim approaching anxiously. "The Dalits came back and said they saw a troop of soldiers marching towards the village in the distance!"
