Chapter 142: Lessons

My family then turns toward me at my statement, including my accursed Amana family.

"What?! You think you got some influences in the commercial market?! Don't make me laugh, even if your family owns somewhat of a successful business, a dirty commoner child like you don't even hold any influence or power in this world" Demon then laughed maniacally

"Well do you want to wait and see? Because you should know that I do not make pointless lies, since you don't even consider me as equal, I will now treat you like how I all my enemies"

"Sir, all of our business partners...they are no longer willing to cooperate with us" Another house servant rushed in and rant about how all their business end shuts down in front of us

"Told you, I just had to ask for a small favor, you see. I will need to buy a lot of fresh and high quality coffee beans after this"

"You know a guy that do all of this for you just for coffee beans?" Cordelia asked "I'm both impressed and concerned on how you found a suspicious person like that"

"Well it's not like he was the one who did it, so the gist of it is that, he knows a guy that knows another guy that knows a goat that knows a parrot that knows a horse that knows another goat who knows a guy that kn-"

"I get it" she put her hands to her ears "Please stop, a headache is about to happen if you continue"

"Well you guys still didn't answer my question, am I allowed to physically harm them now? Since we're right now in a predicament that our lives are in danger"

"You mercenaries are still hired, right?! Kill them, his bounty will at least make up for this mishap" he ordered

"Should I just warp us out of here?"

"I've been waiting to meet you" A person joined in

It was a man who looked to be in his late 60s, in a high ranked red enchanted robe.

-An SS-class robe and an SS-ranked magic wand, he came prepared-

-It's not like we can't handle it- Ace responded

-If we were just by ourselves then yes, but with everyone else here, let's just warp them out, we'll stay behind-

"Warp your family away, the bounty just wants you, and my contract only involves you, I'll be activating my spatial disruption tool right after" he said "If you try to escape along with it, I'll activate it and leave all of you here. I'll be honest, I just want you and your dragon, I'm curious on why they deem you such a high level threat"

-I'm staying- Siege said

-I know-

"Well you guys heard him" I then opened a warp gate "Just leave the rest to me"

"Olivia, get the kids and go, I'll stay behind and help Perseus" John ordered

"Yeah, I'm strong too, you know" Cordelia added

"Damon, throw them all in"

"Way ahead of you" He responded as he quickly rushed towards them and pushed them through the portal.

"I hate you" Dabria screamed as she was tossed in

"I love you too"

"What a good boy" the old man chuckled as he watched the site

"Void of eternal dreams" I casted as a black orb engulfed everyone in the area and made them all sleep

"You..." the old man managed to say before his eyes rolled up and fell to the floor.

"We can't kill this white core mage now, because if we do, our bounty will go up and it'll be quite troublesome. But..." I then approached him and overloaded his mana core and breaking it

"Do it to the others in this room too, we'll give them humiliation of a lifetime. Especially that dumb uncle of mine has to suffer, as for my cousins, they will have to learn on how to not take life for granted and find a way to make money from scratch, without magic and without their money, because we will be stealing all of it"

"Can you wake some of these guys up?" Ace asked "I want to fight some of them"

"Ok sure, but not until we break the other people's mana core, I want to teach them a bit of a lesson"

*****

"I can't believe that you actually tossed us through the warp gate" Cordelia pouted with her arms crossed

"I said I love you as you were being thrown, hopefully that means something"

"What happened to them?" Dad asked

"Don't worry, I didn't kill any of them, though uncle Desmond will experience that dream where he wakes up naked on the streets and as for my cousins, they will have to find a way to appreciate life and earn money from scratch, they need to be taught something."

"We also stole their money and treasures" Damon added "But we donated them to the orphanages around the kingdom, we kept enough to just buy several bags of coffee"

"How did you even do it?" Olivia asked "And it was so quick"

"I just put them to sleep, Cordelia knows what I'm talking about"

"It's the ability of that super cool sword of yours" Cordelia sighs "Oh man, they got under my nerves, I thought that you would kill them after the insults they threw at you"

"I kept my promise to you guys to do no physical harm, as for my 2 grandparents, well hopefully they can use their knowledge and experiences to teach those cousins of mine on how to make money"

"Let's just eat out for today" Mom sighs "We'll invite the Irons too, too much happened in one day"

-And we can now rest for a while till we have to do that stupid mission Zach gave us, we can sleep in and have a lot of free time-

"Are you sure that this report isn't fake, your majesty?" the military commander asked

"No, it was confirmed by one of our spies in Zale, Perseus and his bonds went to visit the Zale kingdom, and before they left, dozens of strong mages got their cores shattered, including a few grey cored mage and their strongest mage, a person with a white core" the king answered "The children of the Amana family woke up with the family heads to find all their possessions stolen and no longer being able to use anymore magic"

"Yes, and apparently the white core mage didn't even stand a chance as he apparently blacked out after just a few seconds" a noble added "Perseus Silver is now a mage capable of incapacitating a white core mage, he's very dangerous. We should proceed with caution if we want to even win"

"Of course, he's very smart and mature for his age" the king nodded "That's why our new squad is composed of only the best among the elites, they will be able to ensure our kingdom's safety"
