When the realisation hit me I turned my head towards the Hunters association.
(How the hell did she know about my name when I never told her )
(Am I making a big deal out of this or something maybe she just checked my information because she wanted to see the new awekened hunters )
(After all she is an A rank hunter so she may have the athurity to do that)
But I don't know it feels like I am missing something.
Whatever I will think about it later first I need meet with him.
I brushed it off as a coincidence and walked towards the place I had a meet up plan with.
(I should probably put this breifcase in my storage I don't want to carry it around all of the places)
(And I don't need it in my friends house)
swish!
I secretly put it inside my system storage.
While walking by a tree.
After a few moments.
I looked at the place of visit with confusion.
(Did I get the wrong address?)
I took out my phone and looked at the address.
I turned my head up and down to see if I was getting the address right.
I immediately massaged him in confusion.
[Yo Arden you sent me the wrong address]
[I need you to resend your address or come pick me up]
[wait I thought I gave you the right address?]
[Wait 2 minutes I will send someone to pick you up]
Huh I sighed heavily as I waited for someone to pick me up.
I looked ahead at the huge iron gate Infront of me and the 2 gaurds guarding it .
I took out my phone and scrolled through some of the documents the association gave me .
While I scrolled down the documents the huge gate started to open up and behind their a yellow haired girl in a maid outfit came outside.
I decided to step back and turn around to make way for her just then i heard her say something.
Welcome to our estate lord nightshade.
I turned my head back trying to put 2 and 2 together.
How do you know my name?
Lord Valor has ordered us to guide you to his room.
Her face was emotionless but she spoke with respect and deligence.
I looked at her with my eyes half closed.
Are you sure this is Arden's estate?
Lord nightshade I would recommend talking about lord Valor in that manner .
I took out my phone and sent a few massages.
[Hey arden did you send a maid to pick me up?]
[Yes ]
[She maybe look a little crazy but trust me she is alright]
[She has a maid complex and absolutely will not tolerate her master being "SLANDERD"]
[so don't judge her she is kind]
(Then i why would he get such a maid)
well can you show me the
I followed behind her to the mansion while looking around.
(Since when did he become so rich as to buy such a big mansion )
The villa's grand facade blends modern and classical architecture. It's surrounded by lush gardens, a lion-themed fountain, and state-of-the-art security. Security guards in sleek uniforms and high-tech gear patrol the grounds, reflecting the owner's wealth and status.
But the most eye catching part is it's size .
It was 15 meters tall In height which is humangus in size .
(Just how much did he spent on this mansion?)
We soon entered the mansion which even in the inside was was large and long
It was filled with different types lights and chandeliers on the walls.
Tap tap tap
We walked for some Time before finnaly reaching a specific room.
She opened the door for me and let me enter the room while she stayed outside .
I entered the room and looked at it.
The room exudes opulence and authority. Rich, dark paneling lines the walls, complemented by deep drapes. A grand desk sits at the center, with a high-backed chair behind it. Tall bookcases filled with volumes reach up to the ceiling, while a chandelier casts a warm light. A fireplace adds warmth, and a luxurious rug covers the floor.
Yo arden how are you doing.
I looked at the man that was sitting in the chair.
His chair turned around and I finnaly saw the face of him.
The golden-haired guy that was sitting on the chair, his piercing blue eyes scanning the room with a sharp, discerning gaze. His golden locks framed his strong jawline and high cheekbones, accentuating his intense expression. Even in a seated position, his posture was commanding, exuding an air of confidence and authority. His presence was both captivating and intimidating, making it clear that he was not someone to be taken lightly.
Are you really trying to intimidate me?
His eyes immediately softened.
Come on man can't you atleast try to act scared by my commanding pose?
he raised his hand and slapped it on his thigh
I especially learnt this pose just to impress you.
I don't think it's the time for playing arden I need some help.
His eyes turned sharper.
What do you need help with?.
I need a weapon and some items I will return them after I use them.
And why do you need this weapons?.
You should already know why.
Huh he sighed as he looked at me with pity.
1 C rank weapon and 2 d rank items.
That's the best I can do.
I stared at him .
What?
is that not enough??? I can't do more than that.
Nothing but are you sure ?
Ummm you are making me feel uncomfortable okay i can do 1 C rank weapon and 3 d rank items that is the most i cannot give more.
(Wait did he increase the things I was getting)
(I can't believe he is actually willing to give 1 c rank weapon and 3 D rank items)
(Even a E rank weapon can cost tens of thousands of dollars and d rank weapon costs hundreds of thousands)
(But C rank weapon it's straight up more than a million dollars)
(I was thinking he would give me some low level weapons like E rank weapons but who would have guessed it was a C rank weapon)
(I guess seeing such a huge mansion I should have guessed he got millions just lying around in his bed)
Thanks for the gifts but I want to ask you something.
Yes.
How did you make this much money that you can give millions to your friends for free.
He started sweating when he heard that question.
Umm let's see I did some stock market trading and which relly's on talent and luck of the highest .
I turned my head towards him with suspicion.
You didn't gamble did you?
His sweats disappeared.
Oh no I actually didn't gamble I had long since left it.
Okay.
(He seems like he is telling the truth)
(I will trust him for now)
So then how did you really gain all this money I have never seen you actually learn something.
Well situations changed and I got more wiser in life so I learned the ways of life and know look at me.
I am your begger boy in a suit and with mansions as his houses and spending millions for whatever I wanted in life.
Well it would not have been possible without your help so that is why I am paying my debt back to you.
I smiled as I looked at him.
You have changed arden you used to beg me for food now I am here begging you.
Well thanks for the compliment but you should probably take a look at what kind of weapon you want and the items you want.
I have prepared a room for you close to the hunters association.
And also remember me whenever you want something okay?
My maid will show you the way to the weapon room.
He turned his head to the desk and took out some papers to work on.
You should rest a bit more Arden.
I can see wrinkles in your eyes because of overwork.
Huh he immediately looked at the mirror.
He turned to me and smiled.
Okay boss he put a thumbs up.
The maid opened the door with respect and bowed down to me.
She looks at the smiling Ardens face with contentment.
She showed a little smile of happiness but quickly covered it up.
I saw that smile but didn't say anything.
I only followed her and asked we walked through the hallway I asked a question.
How many hours does me work for?
10 hours a day or 60 hours a week on average.
But if emergency were to occur it's 16 Hours a day.
I opened my eyes wide open with suprise.
I looked back to closed door.
He really has changed by alot .
What was lord Valor like before he started his business?she asked me genuinely curious.
Ugh hah ha
I laughed it off.
You don't want to know.
I picture the blonde haired boy as a child that came at our house every Day and played in mud with us eat and sleeped with us.
He treated me like a true brother but now he is such a huge figure I can't help but awe at his achievements.
Now that I remember it he had a photo frame on his desk of our family.
Inside the Room.
Arden looked at the photo frame with his eyes fully darkened.
I am sorry mother and father you were there when I needed you the most but when you needed me the most I was far away.
He took the picture frame and took it closer to his face.
No matter what I will promise you one thing.
I will make sure I will kill the monsters that killed you.
His eyes turned pitch black as blood started forming around his arms.
