William gave a cold smile, "If he dies now, how will I establish my power? Let him be arrogant for a few days. Within a month, I'll break through to tier-bronze. By then, he'll be nothing but a stepping stone, and all the nobles of the Northern District will bow at my feet!"
Hearing this, the seneschal grew excited.
"Tier-bronze! That's a level only the patriarch has reached! For William to achieve tier-bronze at his age would shock the entire Northern District—and even neighboring cities!"
At that point, not just Alan, but the title of the top noble family in the Northern District would be theirs for certain.
"With such strategy and talent, my grandson is truly destined for greatness!" the seneschal said, barely able to contain his excitement. "Don't worry. All of the family's resources will be at your disposal to support your cultivation."
