Chapter 154 - 154: Home (Quasi-Mansion)



Young Master Takeshiba Yuto\'s office was a true work of décor and design, as it covered almost ¼ of the whole floor area.

Before entering his office there was a small pre-entering office, which was his personal secretary\'s office.

​​

Whoever wanted to enter his office, had to go through that small pre-entering office, and take the clearance from his personal secretary.

After passing that small hurdle, you would enter his true big office, which seemed like a big hall, with an office desk in the middle of it, and a few chairs, a TV, and the small minibar.

Just the prices of some of the articles in there or those precious bottles on the minibar were enough to buy an apartment in Eric\'s current building.

This was clearly a more than obvious indicator of the big gap between the rich, wealthy society, and the poor people who lived their daily normal lives.

This was a clear indicator of the truth of the World that everyone pretended to be blind in front of. The strong rule over the weak and the gap is truly enormous.

At the beginning of his previous life, Eric had been one of the many working ants, whose blood and sweat went to the rich and powerful people.

It had taken him a lot of time, and sweat to finally reverse his fate, and eventually become an Overlord.

But even then, he had been too narrowminded, as he didn\'t know just how vast, and big this world was, and that what he had achieved was just like a dust particle, and nothing more.

This time was different! This time he decided to become stronger, and more powerful, and find his own way towards the vast world out there, and rule over it.

After what he had lived, Eric was able to divide people into two big categories, the rulers, and the adaptors.

The difference in numbers was like night and day. As rulers were less than 0.00001% of the population, everyone else was an adapter.

These guys would try to adapt to any situation and leave their fate in the hands of the rulers. In his previous life, Eric had passed the transition from one side to the other.

In this life, he had already been reborn as a fully-fledged ruler, and there was nothing besides death that would stop him to rule the heavens.

Seeing his brother-in-law in such deep thoughts, Young Master Takeshiba thought that he was still thinking about what just happened, as he said with a weird smile,

"You aren\'t satisfied with how I dealt with the situation earlier brother-in-law?"

Takeshiba Yuto\'s words got Eric out of his thoughts, as he said with a slightly guilty smile,

"No, no, brother-in-law that matter is finished as long as I get a good explanation, as far as I am concerned.

I was just thinking about the strange fate of people in this world, and our greedy, and never-ending desires! Just foolish thoughts of mine!"

Young Master Takeshiba was a bit surprised by his words, as he tried to make sense of their standings and situation, as he thought that Eric was saying double-meaning words.

But he couldn\'t make sense of them, and even if he tried he swayed even more from the truth and their meaning.

On the other hand, Eric seemed to have totally awakened, as he understood he might have said more than he should, so he tried to change the topic of conversation.

For that reason, he said with an excited face and voice,

"Let\'s leave these things aside brother-in-law, as are unworthy to spend precious time upon. So, what don\'t you show me what you have selected for me!"

Even though a bit puzzled, and confused by this situation, Young Master Takeshiba was more than happy to leave this behind, and focus on something else, as he replied happily,

"Haha~! You are right brother in law, come with me this way. I am sure you are going to love them."

Then turning to his secretary, he said,

"Nina, prepare us to Whiskey on the rocks! And don\'t allow anyone besides Master Shiba to disturb us!"

With that said, he led Eric towards his office table, and as they sat on their respective chairs, he took a big folder from the side and handed it over to Eric.

Inside the Folder there were 7 files containing some of the best Real Estate Properties in the city, starting from apartments, penthouses, up to big and expensive-looking mansions.

Each of the properties was found in really good and wealthy areas, parts of big complexes, that seemed to be a small city inside the big one.

Most important the peace and security each of these buildings provided was equal to the police and even military sometimes.

Still, Eric wasn\'t impatient to select his future home, as it was something of high importance. As his house would be his center of action for some time, and also an important training ground.

Thinking like this he went through all 7 of them, looking at them in detail. Their location, their construction, the facilities provided, the surroundings, everything.

It took him around half an hour, and two glasses of Whiskey to finally chose his perfect place. It was a quasi-mansion in one of the best neighborhoods inside the city.

It was a quasi-mansion because while the terrain was more than 10.000 square feet, the building occupied only a fifth of it.

The structure inside had a surface of around 5000 square feet, as it 2 floors, 6 bedrooms, 2 big halls, 4 bathrooms, and 2 kitchens.

But the structure could be easily upgraded with a little a bit of investment at the place, as the outside was only covered in grass.

According to the notes, this place had been kind of sentimental for the owner, as the house had been built according to his instructions, but after his death, his children were trying to sell the house.

For Eric, this place was perfect, because not only was in a really good complex, who was built by one of the big families, but its safety was guaranteed from the private agency of a 2nd rate family.

The best aspect of this place though was the fact that it was in a less than 50 km range from the Miura\'s mansion.

If Eric had this house he would be able to easily move between the two places, his house, and the underground part of the Miura\'s Mansion.

Like that he would be able to have one more safety measure in place if he wanted to leave his house in case of emergency.

In fact, he was thinking of creating some kind of tele transportation channel between the two. Like that he would be able to easily use that place too.

Deciding on this, he immediately took that precise file from the folder of 7, as he said with a determined voice,

"I want this one brother-in-law!"

Taking the file, Young Master Takeshiba was a bit surprised, as this wasn\'t the biggest or the most expensive of the bunch.

In fact, this one could be in the middle, like third or fourth, so it didn\'t really make sense for Eric to choose that.

To be honest he was thinking that Eric chose that one on purpose by looking at its price tag, as it wasn\'t either truly expensive or cheap.

That was why he asked him once again with a slightly surprised voice,

"Are you sure brother-in-law!? There are some better ones than this, and my father advised me to give you the best!"

He was trying to say in a roundabout way that the prices were not a problem and that he could select even the most expensive one, who cost more than 5 times the price of the one he had selected.

Eric wasn\'t swayed by his words though, as he looked even more determined and said in a clear voice,

"I am sure brother-in-law, I am not looking at the building, but at its potential. Surely this place isn\'t as impressive as the others, but I am sure that I can make it the best."

His words kind of surprised Young Master Takeshiba, but he could see that Eric had already made his choice, and he seemed really determined about it.

He didn\'t seem like he would be swayed by no matter what he said, so he decided to let him do as he pleased, as he then said with a smile,

"Well then congratulations on your new home brother-in-law, we will prepare the documents immediately, and you can move there from today if you want to.

Also, in order to ask for an apology for my earlier mistakes, and as a gift for your engagement and entering the family, I will take care of the decoration of the house!"

Young Master Takeshiba looked really sincere in what he said, but Eric didn\'t believe him in the least. This guy and his father were both sly snakes, who would be able to find a burrow even in a rock.

While he seemed really sorry and truly apologizing, Eric thought about a bigger drawback to the offer. If he did the decorations, then he could surely place bugs around the house.

He didn\'t feel comfortable with someone else snooping around him and his daily life, so that was a big no from his side, so he refused immediately,

"What are you talking about brother-in-law, all that is in the past, and I don\'t even remember what happened between us.

Furthermore, I feel more at home, if I take care of all that by myself! So I can\'t really accept your gift."

He was politely refusing but was firm on his words. Seeing this situation Young Master Takeshiba understood that his efforts were in vain, so he just said,

"Well, since you say so, brother-in-law. But I insist on paying for those, so please send the bill to me!"

Eric would surely not refuse such a good offer, so he just smiled and answered,

"Okay then, since you insist!"

At that moment, the door to the office opened, and…
