Sam descended to the dining hall.
As usual, it wasn't crowded; it was the ancestral manor, and only the main family members of the clan were allowed to stay there.
The occupants of the Ancestral Manor included Sam, his two aunts, his mom, his sister, his grandmother, and Lenora Fenrir, who served as the personal maid for the matriarch.
Amelia was also staying there due to her special relationship with Sam, who was now the heir to the Hailstorm clan.
Sam couldn't help but notice the grim expressions on everyone's faces. Even Ava, who was typically indifferent, wore a frown.
'It must be related to the Lord of the Abyss,' Sam smiled as he replayed the scene of him using the skill Shadow Emperor Incarnation to infiltrate the Hailstorm clan's prison and extract a dozen shadows of death row prisoners.
He deliberately let a guard notice his Shadow Emperor Incarnation to introduce his new alter ego—the Lord of the Abyss.
