Chapter 103 - Allakiir Mansion



One could only wonder how big the entire building was, because this was the richest family other than Royal Family and Seth realized that they were up to that title, just by seeing a part of the entire house.

"So, Seth. Would you like to pay a visit to our family head? I can guarantee you that he will treat you nicely." Theod asked.

"Hm? That would be a good idea."

"Then it\'s settled."

"I wonder why are you putting so much importance on a person like me. You could have arranged a quiet place for me to stay, outside of your family mansion, but you brought me here instead. Now, you\'re even bringing a youngster like me to personally meet your family head. Isn\'t that just too much?" Seth asked in an aloof intonation. However, he was trying to understand a bit more about Theod\'s interests.

"As a member of the Allakiir family, I was presented to the business since my toddler days. I sort of developed a kind of instinct to important people and business. When you first entered my office at the Merchant Union branch, I instantly knew you were not someone common as you make yourself to be. That is why I know that you are a strong person or have a strong background, even though I didn\'t prob you at all."

Theod turned towards Seth and continued: "You had a very calm and confident aura around you, even though you are in the middle of the Elven Territory. Not that we would be hostile to you, but you should at least be cautious. It means that either you\'re strong, or that you are dumb. But since you have the Royal Crest with you, you would certainly not be a dumb person."

Once again, Seth picked that unwavering belief people had on their Elf Queen from his speech.

"You\'re mostly right. But you are bringing me to see a Profound Mana Realm practitioner, aren\'t I right? I can\'t do anything against such a person. What makes you think I would not have run, after you proposed me that?"

"Ahaha. You don\'t need to be like that. I\'m sure that almost no one would dare to touch you after knowing that you possess the Royal Crest, at least not a sane person."

"Hm? Why do you say that?"

"Because of the Elf Queen of course."

"There is something that I wanted to ask an influent person since some days ago. Why does everyone respect the Elf Queen to such a deep degree?"

"Hm... There are many reasons for that. However, it would be better if you hear it about someone that is closer to her level, than from a merchant like me, and I\'m not referring to strength, but politics. My point of view might be too narrow."

"Sigh... Alright, then bring me to your family head. I\'m certain we will have a nice chat."

"Relax, my brother may not be at home right now. So, I will first bring you to the guest room so you can rest for some time."

"So, you are the brother of the Family Head?"

"Yes. We are twin brothers."

"Twins? Pardon my rudeness, but how can there be such a huge difference on your cultivation levels?" Seth knew that his family had a Profound Mana Realm cultivator and it probably woud be the leader. But, Theod was only a Mana Perception initial-stage cultivator, so there was a really huge gap between them.

"Ahaha. I know what you are thinking. You\'re probably taking my brother as being the strongest practitioner of my family. Although we really have a huge gap on our cultivation levels, my brother is still a Mana Control initial-stage cultivator, he is not the strongest practitioner of our clan."

"You mean..."

"It is his daughter. She is really a huge genius that stepped at the Profound Mana Realm some years ago, on top of that, our family has a really huge amount of funds to support her cultivation, so it was inevitable that one day we would give birth to a strong practitioner. If I\'m not wrong, you\'re still under thirty years old and is one of those human guests for the Wild Games. You are lucky that she is already past that age, so you won\'t meet her there."

"Impressive! That\'s an eye opener for me. It\'s really rare to see someone reach that level and not be the Senior. Most powerful practitioners are already old."

"Age? That\'s just a number, you shouldn\'t be concerned about that. If you put it that way, she could probably be your mother, however it is impolite for us to talk about her age. There is indeed a problem though, and it has something to do with her age. She has yet to marry and we are getting worried that she might let her golden time go to waste. What a pity... How about you marry her?"

"Me? You\'re thinking too much. I already have a girlfriend and I bet she can\'t be more beautiful than her."

"A girlfriend? If you have a strong status, then you can support more than a single woman. Same thing if you were a female. But bear in mind, what matters in this world is strength and status. If you have that, then you are the winner while your enemies are the losers. Simple, but cruel."

"Sigh... Indeed." Seth agreed with his thoughts. He had his fair share of cruelty already and knew that power was supreme, but he would not use it to force people to do his bidding. He would use power to protect his allies and destroy his enemies.

"Mister Theod, aren\'t you averse to the idea of a human and an elf getting together?"

"That\'s a good question. Don\'t you think it is strange that everyone in the city but us treated you differently? Actually, the Allakiir family is one of the few families that are in good terms with opening our culture and values to the other races. Our family prospered because of that after all. The business we have with you humans is what led us to be in the top three most powerful families on the Elven Kingdom. If we are where we are today, is because of the resources we obtained from trading with you humans, why not go a step ahead and unify the races in an alliance or something more?"

"You do have a point. But I don\'t think you would be able to easily accomplish something like that, there might be a lot of resistance." Seth remembered how people looked at him when he entered the city.

"You\'re right. There are many families that are against something like that. In the end we are one against many, without a good support, that might indeed be a bit difficult to accomplish."

"But that is actually surprising, Mister Theod. I never thought you would be so easygoing."

"You can drop the Mister already. I think you are a good person, so you can call me Theod, only."

"Alright." Seth nodded.

"Come one, follow me, I will lead you towards your room."

Sometime later, Seth was brought towards a very huge courtyard. There was a garden and a small house inside the Allakiir family villa. He passed through many different areas to reach this place, showing that the mansion was really huge.

"This is our best guest room and I hope you like it. I\'ll send someone to call you after everything is prepared. It may take some hours."

"Alright."

After entering the small luxurious house, Seth closed the door and immediately went towards the bathroom. At his cultivation level, he could use his Mana to keep him clean, but he liked to take a bath sometimes. After cleaning himself, he laid down on the bed and slept for a bit.

He practically had travelled non-stop from the Devil Territory until here. His body was already screaming for a good rest. It didn\'t take too much time for him to sleep. He told Lexi that it would be better for him to be on top condition when learning the things she is going to teach him.

Four hours later Seth woke up with the sound of someone calling for him. It was a female servant that Theod sent to call him over.

"Hello, Young Master Seth. Master Theod asked me to bring you to him."

"Alright, let\'s go."

Seth was brought inside the huge mansion, to a room that seemed to be an office.

The maid opened the door for him, but didn\'t enter. She waited by the door on the outside.

Seth entered and saw that Theod was standing near a person that was sitting on a chair. There was an empty chair for Seth on the other side of the table. He was a man identical to Theod and the only difference between them was their attire.. One looked like an easygoing merchant while the other, was a serious and strict family head.
