Aric stood at the bow of the flying boat, watching as the vast expanse of the Lei Estate came into view. The majestic mountains, lush forests, and sprawling structures of the Lei Family's territory stretched out beneath them like a painting. His eyes glinted with satisfaction as he imagined the potential power he would wield now that the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan was in his grasp.
Behind him, the fox clan members, led by Ava Nightshade, gazed at the unfamiliar landscape with a mixture of awe and trepidation. It was the first time they had ventured outside the Demonic Lands in centuries. Despite their previous skepticism, the grandeur of the Lei Estate was undeniable.
As the boat descended, Aric turned to face them. "Welcome to the Lei Estate," he said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes. "This will be your new home."
Ava, standing at the front of her clan, nodded curtly. "We will hold you to your word, Aric. My people's safety is paramount."
