Chereads / The Fate of Alistor / Chapter 3 - The Family

Chapter 3 - The Family

"Ah, Master you are finally back." I reached Jermey within less an hour even with my low endurance. 

 

All Jermy's wires were exposed as his suit was made of glass meaning I could see his Mana Core which was an A rank core which was rare as the higher the rank the lower the chance to find it. For example, an A rank core had less than a 9.7% chance of being found after killing an A rank monster. Jermey's face was like a mask made of steel meaning it could not show any emotion even though he has a high enough intellect to in fact show emotion. He has blue eyes. 

 

"Master, can we go back home please? It is getting dark." asked Jermey his robotic voice crossed with worry. 

"Of course, Jermey." I replied instantly. 

 

I entered the car noticing the interior was just as comfortable as the bed I first awoke from. Wait... I think the skill also improves my senses.

The car ride here was the same as the one as the one there. 

 

As I stepped out of the car, I admired the scenery once again. I mean why do nobles need this much beauty in their garden? I looked at the mansion with new eyes. The mansion was 50m across and 100m (about the length of a football field). It was made of white marble with windows every few meters. Yes, it was that expensive. 

 

I entered the mansion; Rachel immediately came up to me to tell me that I had to go to dinner right now. I checked the clock above the door to see what time it was. It was 8 o'clock time really flew when you were doing something you enjoy. I walked down the corridor, coolly.  I wanted to make them wait, especially my brother. I mean Alistor's brother. His voice was like nails being dragged along glass. Very annoying.

I slowly walked into the dining room. Everyone was sitting down. As they heard my footsteps, everyone looked up to look at me. The dining room carpet was red with a spiraling pattern. The walls were made of cool marble with portraits of all the previous heads of the family. I looked at the last head of the family. The frame of the portrait was made from gold and palatium. He was wearing his military uniform. His skin was a light olive. He had a light gray bread just like my hair. His eyes a light blue and eyebrows arched in surprise. My eyes looked down to find the man's son. Half his face was sacred and burned. The eye on that side of his face had iris meaning it was completely white, the eyebrow was also burned of his face making him have a lopsided look. 

 

Who was this person? This was Alistor's father. Genral Maximilion Vermillion-hart. A monster on the battlefield. He has killed, no massacred over 10,000 high rank demons with ease. Currently he is the strongest human in the world. His rank? SSS. The only reason he is not any stronger is that he hit his potential a decade back. He is the reason that the world is living through a current calm. The reason he has the scars on his face is because he fought one of the 7 Demon Lords who directly report to the demon king. He fought the Demon of Greed. Mammon, the Demon Lord of Greed. She fought him to a standstill and believe me she ended up worse than Maximillion here. 

 

To his right was his wife and Alistor's mother, Aliana Vermillion-hart, or Aliana Nightshade the heir to royal family of the Astradai. A race known for their expertise control of one element. They have very chestnut brown skin. The Astradia were an extremely technologically reliant race meaning they are a reason humanity was so technologically advanced these days. To his left was my brother, I mean Alistor's brother.
