" So this is the land of the sword huh? It's really worthy of being the residence of a Duke, all this captains are nexus beings above the fifth star, their strength and force is something that can't be underestimated "
" But that's not all, this head butler "
" A former Swordsmaster who served as the sword of the former Patriarch of thr Reinhart Family, even though he is not a Reinhart, he commands more authority that most Reinharts in this land "
" I can't underestimate him " Kyle concluded, he took a deep breath and a relaxing smile appeared on his face, he took a step into the stairway, he walked passed the Head Butler Geran Fruze.
This action shocked everyone who witnessed it.
Whispering amongst themselves, they knew one thing, the old Kyle Reinhart cowered before the sight of the Head Butler Geran Fruze but this Kyle showed no signs of fear, this caused the Head Butler to grin.
He quickly turned, following the tenth young master into the grand castle.
Both Ser Tristan and Commander Dylan followed suit, they escorted their liege into the castle with Butler Buntley who followed from behind, it didn't take them long before they entered the mighty Castle.
" Young master Kyle, it's being six years since you left the Roseville Castle, would you like to pay a visit to her highness? " Head Butler Geran asked!
" Is she my mother? " Kyle asked.
" Umm no, she is the mother to the first and third young masters, and the mother to the first young mistress of the family " Head Butler Geran asked when he faced the direction of Kyle Reinhart.
" Is that so? Then there is no need to do that, why should I pay a visit to the woman who didn't give birth to me? " Kyle asked.
It took them a few minutes before they arrived at the chambers of the tenth young master, the head butler Geran bowed his head before Kyle for the last time.
" I will once again welcome you into the Crossword Dukedom, I understand your days as the Baron of a small land really was fun right? tonight is the welcoming feast of the young masters, a grand event "
" I hope you don't miss it " Head Butler Geran stated.
" Will my father be there? " Kyle asked.
" Its not certain yet, the Patriach is quite busy with alot regarding the Empire but if he decides to be present, it will a joyous feast " Head Butler Geran answered, still smiling and after a few minutes.
He left the scene, leaving Kyle with his forces.
" My liege! " Commander Dylan called out.
" I know, he was testing me in secrecy, did he really think I wouldn't detect the bloodlust within the auras he unleashed secretly? I don't know what relationship he had with this body in the past but it doesn't matter "
" I'm here to dominate everyone " Kyle declared.
Butler Buntley opened the door of the tenth young master's chambers, Kyle let's out a sigh, he made his way into his chambers, both Ser Tristan and Commander Dylan waited outside of the chambers.
By the law....no one is permitted to enter the chambers of a noble without the direct permission of the noble and Kyle hasn't given them the permission yet, only Butler Buntley was given this authority.
Kyle couldn't believe how spacious his room was.
Even though it's just the chambers of the tenth young master, it isn't the biggest in the castle but this room is capable of fitting five hundred men in it, that's how spacious this room truly was, it's understandable since he is a noble.
" Butler Buntley " Kyle called out.
" Young Master Kyle, you called me? " Butler Buntley asked with his head bowed before his lord.
" By what time is the welcoming feast and how many will be there? " Kyle questioned.
" The welcoming feast begins by sunset and there are many nobles who came all around from various lands, Including Lady Seville Ramon....your fiancee " Butler Buntley explained.
Kyle stood with a confused look seen on his face.
" My fiancee? " He asked.
" Yes, it seems the young master has forgotten considering how long he's been away from the capital but I will brief you, even though you're the tenth young master of the Reinhart Family, you were selected to be married to lady Seville Ramon "
" The Heir of the Ramon Dukedom, you don't have to worry, she's a promising young one and an expert in the field of magics " Butler Buntley explained, his face beamed with smiles.
" She's a mage? " Kyle asked.
" Yes, there are four Dukes of the Vahallan Empire, each holds their own signature in the land, The Crossword Dukedom is the land of the sword, the kingdom of knights and swordsmen of the Empire "
" It's a land which focuses more on the blade that's why the Reinhart Family is a family of swordsmen and women, Reinharts are the direct descendants of the arch men, the first men to descend on the continent "
" The Ruberion Dukedom controlled by the Ramon Family is the land of magics, all members of the Ramon Family are naturally born mages and thanks to the inheritors pact, Ramons are forbidden from using the blades "
" And Reinharts are forbidden from using magics " Butler Buntley explained.
" Tch, so it's because of an inheritor pact huh? If I had exposed myself as a mage, I would have been banished from the Reinhart Family, I guess it's only natural to hide it " Kyle said to himself.
" What about the remaining two dukes? " Kyle asked.
" The Xendra Dukedom is ruled by the Hadron Family who are the back bones of the Empire's advancement in technology, a family that created different techniques in alchemy and created even the homunculus used for transportation " Butler Buntley answered.
" Is that so? They really must be pretty powerful huh? " Kyle asked.
" Yes, all the four Dukedoms are powerful on their own, controlling various lands and powers, the last is the back bone of the Empire's Wealth, the Onaris Dukedom, controlled by the Haris Family "
" The richest family of the Empire, amassing wealth that's beyond understanding, they are a family contracted to all three Dukedoms, due to their wealths, they have both the swords, magics and alchemy "
" The younger brother of the Duke of the Onaris Dukedom is the prime minister of the Vahallan Empire, that shows how influential they truly are " Butler Buntley explained, Kyle approached the opened window.
He could feel the fresh wind when a smile appeared on his face.
" So apart from the Ramon Family, who again will be present for this party? " Kyle asked.
" Ofcourse, this isn't just a welcoming party but it's the caravan ritual, many from the Vahallan Empire will be coming including all the young masters from the remaining Dukedoms and even the Royal Family "
Butler Buntley answered.
" The caravan ritual? What's that? " Kyle questioned.
" Well how should I put it, it's a grand ritual that determines the influence a noble's child holds in the Vahallan Empire, influence is determined by the levels one possess, It starts from the NOVEX "
" The Novex is a technology created by the Hadron Family, it's a technology which controls both the defense and the offense of the Empire, all the magic barriers and veils you saw on your way here "
" They are all managed by the Novex "
" Novex was created based on the existence of the world system Gaia and while the Emperor gave it the name "Novex", it's true name is the Truth Seeker, I'm sure you know how power of this world works right? Auras, Mana and Skills but amongst them, Skills stands at the top "
" They are a power that bypasses laws of the world, that's why skill users are treated specially in the Empire, all the Dukes are awakeners, all technology based machines are managed by the Novex "
" But I should explain the term Level "
" Level is basically the limits set on a mortal body, the more your level increases, the more your body breaks through the limits, all humans starts from level one but thanks to their training to control their mortality "
" They transcend into a realm on its own, all swordmasters and archmages are basically on level fifty and above, the highest level a human can reach based on the predictions of Novex is level hundred "
Butler Buntley explained.
" To think this world is this advanced, if all this existed in the Saturn Era, would I have won the war against the primordials? " Kyle asked himself, when he turned towards his Butler!
" Buntley, I would like to have a training hall to myself, I have a few hours before the welcome feast begins, there is something I need to confirm " Kyle said, Butler Buntley bowed his head once again.
" I will prepare a training room specially for you " Butler Buntley stated, he quickly left the chambers, Kyle was left alone in his chambers when his eyes squinted, his body glowed brightly, releasing demonic energies into the air.
\Demonic Projection/
A power that links him directly into the demonic world while being a human, this is a blessing of the Great Evil Beast Valzaharl, a power that supports his demonification, the air reeked with vile energy.
" The Demonic Projection is the real deal, a power of demon while not being a demon, I can manifest demonic qi and coat it with my sword, but there is something I want to check out, this Heavenly Demon Sword Art I received as a blessing "
" If I recall, it's a power from a dimensional known as the murim and the Demonic Sect, If it's the almighty sword technique which bypasses the laws of space-time, mastering it will make me transcend "
" With the Vatican Godly Blade art and the Heavenly Demon Sword Art "
" Who in this child's age is capable of standing against me "
