Chereads / The Unwilling Heir / Chapter 10 - Background Info

Chapter 10 - Background Info

A week has gone by at school with nothing really interesting, exception of the first day of course. Yuuta and I had a few run ins with Dominic and sometimes we'd spar together before going to the dojo. The start of this week would be the continuation of acting normal. There have been many close calls because for some odd reason girls have started stalking me again!

It's creepy, but I guess I'm use to it, wonder how Yuuta is going. Then again he can't really be stalked home because he goes home in a hummer. I feel your pain Yuuta.

Yuuta and Dominic seem to go back a long time, they were each other's only childhood friends. Secret childhood friends really, lucky guy. Then again if there parents knew it would probably lead to one of their deaths.

I gritted my teeth at that thought.

They then stopped seeing each other when they started going to school. Smart decision too.

Otherwise they'd probably be discovered sooner or later.

The family feud is never ending. Competition for the top spot.

By the way here is some information about the noble class. There are no levels, only which regions do you control the most and which are controlled by two powers that are about equal.

Having international sway means being able to negotiate with another noble family of another region and come to a deal.

The noble families are all equal in power and money even if there is some underlying competition.

Having this neutral understanding between all the powerful families means that the world would go into obliteration and the downfall of the human species. We really do have that much power. There is a total of 3 noble families, collectively called the

'Deos Terrae'

This is Latin, it loosely translates to the gods of the earth. That's basically what they are.

The families are, the Hu family, the Zevary family and the Coltus family.

The noble families are also some of the oldest, the only way of becoming part of a noble family is through family.

The interconnections and the social expectations. All are very complex, this is what the noble families are. The centre of a gigantic web, complex to the point of seeming simple.

Being heir to one basically means being heir to the throne of Earth.

Each family has a specialty, the Hu family are academic, the Zevary are merchants and the Coltus are military. When this was establish the world wars all stopped, the competition for company power lessened and basically the world became more united under the power of the Deos Terrae.

Another reason why the high class cannot ascend class anymore is because there company that earned them their class is always under one of the three noble powers.

Also the reason for the remaining competition in the world is caused by the greed of the high class families.
