“Sir Aethelwolf!” A surprised cry echoed in the mansion. It was his student, Janrose. She came running at him like a little girl who had seen her father.

Aethelwolf smiled gently at her and patted her shoulders. “How have you been?” He asked.

Janrose grinned as she replied. “Your student reached the top ten! Hehe. The final placement will be decided in two days. I’ll get the championship spot. Don’t worry.”

Aethelwolf chuckled at her words. He could feel that her world essence had already stabilized in her Hegel. The battles in the arena must have helped her a lot. “It’s fine even if you don’t get the championship. After all, you are my student so you will be practicing more about Alchemy in the future.” He then turned his head to his family and said. “Everyone, I have an announcement to make. Follow me outside the mansion. Randall, go and call the highest-ranking guards.”

Everyone acknowledged his commands and they all followed him outside the mansion, wondering what he was going to announce.

Not long later, the high-ranking guards and his employees assembled in front of him.

Aethelwolf pulled his family and introduced them to everyone. “This man right here will be the new Lord of the mansion, Anton Lassiter. You guys must call him Sir Anton in the future. This is his wife, Madam Melissa Lassiter. This is their son and also my student, Leric Lassiter.”

When the guards looked at the sleeping little boy in Madam Melissa’s arms, they jolted in surprise. He was a Level 1 Esper!

.....

He only looked to be around three or four years old, but he was already a Level 1 Esper!

“I will also be restructuring the positions of the guards, but we will talk about this tomorrow.” Aethelwolf muttered while looking at the four Level 3 Espers sent by the Hunter Association.

“Do you have any questions?” He scanned everyone and his gaze stopped at an old man who emitted the pressure of a Level 4 Esper.

Jericho’s heart skip a beat when he saw Aethelwolf looking at him. Those calm obsidian eyes seemed as if they could see through his secrets. Jericho tried to discern the young man’s power, but he was left shocked when he found out that he couldn’t even get a tiny bit of clue about his abilities. ‘I can’t sense anything?!’

Aethelwolf then moved his gaze to a nearby tree. No one can see a person there, but Aethelwolf could sense the presence of another Level 4 Esper hiding behind the tree.

“That old man is Jericho Rayden from the Rayden Household. He said that he came all the way here to reconcile with you. I felt his sincerity so I allowed him to stay in the mansion. Please forgive me for making decisions on my own.” Janrose whispered to him.

Aethelwolf rubbed her head gently. “It’s fine.” He then told the others to go back to their rooms.

“Take a rest first. We’ll talk more tomorrow.” He said to his parents. He knew that they were confused by his arrangements, but he couldn’t tell them that he was his son so he has to explain things clearly to them the next day. “Janrose, help them choose their rooms.”

“Okay.” Janrose nodded her head.

When everyone left the scene, Aethelwolf stared at the old man. He then beckoned for the old fellow to follow him to a nearby stone bench.

Aethelwolf took his seat and invited the old man to sit beside him. “We have a lot to talk about, Sir Jericho Rayden.” He smiled gently.

Jericho felt a chill in his heart when he saw Aethelwolf smiling at him. “Thank you for having me here, Sir Aethelwolf.” He forced out an ugly smile.

“Tell me why you are here. I don’t think we are close enough for you to visit me in my mansion.” Aethelwolf’s suddenly turned cold.

Jericho maintained an ugly smile on his face as he replied. “It’s like this, Sir Aethelwolf. That stupid daughter of mine provoked you some time ago and when I heard about this, I immediately punished her and stripped her of her position as the manager of our business. I don’t want to be enemies with you, Sir Aethelwolf and I’m here to sincerely apologize to you about the matter. I also brought something with me here in hopes that you would forgive our Rayden Household.” He took out a cauldron from his storage ring. It was an icy-blue cauldron with black dragon patterns.

Aethelwolf stared at the cauldron with a hint of surprise. This was a Unique-Rated item!

Jericho reluctantly handed the cauldron to Aethelwolf. This was their family heirloom. A valuable artifact that has been passed down for generations. However, he could only give it to this guy in order to pacify his anger.

Aethelwolf unceremoniously took the cauldron and nodded his head. “Initially, I planned to thoroughly destroy your business, but because you are sincere, I’ll let you off this time. However, I hope that there won’t be a second time, Sir Jericho...”

Jericho hurriedly nodded his head. “Of course!”

“Good. You may leave now.” Aethelwolf didn’t give him the time to respond and stood up. He then left the old man without even looking back. As for the Moonlight Frost Cauldron, it was already lying inside Aethelwolf’s storage space.

Jericho could only stare at his figure silently, but he felt relieved as if a monumental pressure has been lifted off his back. “So young and accomplished... It looks like the power structure of our Leone Empire is bound to change drastically once this guy shows his true power...”

Swoosh!

A thin figure emerged behind him.

“My Lord, this person is strong! He was able to pinpoint my location accurately even after I used a concealment technique to hide my presence. He is not just a simple Alchemist!” Aurus muttered with a solemn look on his aged face.

It was the first time Jericho heard the old man talk like this.
