But how many big families are not like that?
Aya knew very well that what made the big family able to stay together was not because of blood ties or anything like that.
It was profitable.
They were able to get more profit by working together as a big family and because of this, they never thought of separating themselves. Moreover, having the resources controlled by a family meant that they would be able to get more resources as part of the family.
The premise was that they contributed to the family.
It was an equal exchange.
But Aya couldn't really treat her real family members like that. That they were only bound by profit whatsoever. She wanted Evan to be strong, strong enough to protect himself in this chaotic world where many ghosts appeared and many other magic beasts would go rampart.
She originally thought that she could help him get the fusion magic inheritance.
But in the end…
A crystal armor should be enough.
