The inside of the palace was the grandest place Elijah had ever set foot in. While he had visited many castles owned by nobles, none rivaled this one. It was the royal palace for a good reason.
Every inch of the interior screamed wealth, giving a glimpse into the kind of luxury enjoyed by the royal family members. Elijah couldn't help but snort at the sight.
While he was scraping for food on the streets during his youth, these people reveled in having servants paid to serve lavish meals on their tables. The glaring gap between him and the royal family members existed for one stupid reason: status.
If Elijah possessed a noble title, however low it might be, he would be viewed more favorably by others. Support would be available when he ventured into business, and others would be more inclined to invest in his ideas due to his higher status.
