"Did you see the representative tournament?" a boy spoke.
"Yeah, honestly, those guys were so strong. I am so nervous about being placed in the same class as them," his friend replied.
"Yeah, I don't want to get entangled with them either," the boy said.
"But why did they allow that ugly girl as our representative?" his friend said with an annoyed look on his face.
"Yeah, I couldn't believe they even let her live. I thought the whole family was exterminated a decade ago," he said as they walked down the road towards the portal dome situated in Soran.
"But the award ceremony was crazy," his friend changed the topic.
"Wasn't it the first time SSS Rank hunters got so close to fighting each other on a public stage?" he questioned.
"True, their presence was so scary. I talked to a guy who was on the stage. He said he couldn't even breathe properly," his friend replied.
The portal dome had many people who gathered there to send off their children to study for four years inside the World Academy. The students could only return home for one month of holidays each year inside the World Academy.
Many parents and older siblings could be seen hugging their kids before they went inside the portal dome to teleport to the famous World Academy.
In another section that was not crowded at all so that VIP or famous people could enter easily, many expensive cars and a lot of security could be seen.
But there was another section in the portal dome that was reserved for the children of the family that had a seat in the High Council. This section had less security, but each security guard was a high ranker.
A car arrived at this section, and a young boy who seemed like 15 or 16 years old stepped out. He had light green hair with black eyes.
"Young Master, you should behave properly inside the World Academy," said a man with a butler uniform and glasses.
"I know, I know," replied the young boy as he looked up at the huge portal dome.
"Please get acquainted with Leonard Tarvian, he is in Second Year. The family head is trying to have good relations with the World Association Chairman," he said.
"And be careful while interacting with other Elite family children," the butler continued.
"And if you have any issues or conflicts, notify the family immediately. Did you even listen to what I said?" the butler spoke hurriedly as the boy kept looking around.
"Chill out, I am not a kid," the young boy replied with a laugh.
"Please don't make trouble for the normal students there, and also make sure nobody gets any proof of your wrongdoings," the butler said.
"Take it easy, I just need to avoid other influential people. I will only mess with those who can't do anything to me," he innocently smiled back at the butler.
"Ahh," the butler sighed as he put his hand on his forehead.
"Okay, bye~" the boy said as he turned and entered the portal dome.
The World Academy security was too far to listen to their conversation, and spying on a member of an Elite family could even cost them their life. They knew that all they had to do was to make sure no harm was done to anyone present there.
Half an hour ago at the Greville Estate,
"Stephen, let Emmy be in charge of Aztech. I have given her the tasks," Asher said.
"As you wish, Young Master," Stephen replied.
As Arthur and Sylvie were both busy today due to their work, Stephen was handling all the arrangements for Amelia and Asher to go to the World Academy. In the couple of days, Sylvie still hadn't had a proper talk with Asher about Alyssa. She took Verina's advice and let the matter rest for now, thinking that Asher had already understood what she told him.
"Also, do a separate arrangement for another building for my company," Asher said.
"And charge it from whatever is left in my budget that was given to me," Asher said.
Both Amelia and Asher were to be given 10 billion AUR when they turned 17, but Asher had asked Sylvie for that money early for establishing Aztech. Sylvie did not mind, as Asher had a good brain for business and their personal family assets were around 250+ billion AUR. Although Abyss Corporation was worth more than a trillion, that money was not the personal asset of the Greville family.
That also did not include the secret family vault that only Nathan and Arthur could access right now. As an Elite family, they had many restrictions that were ruled out by the High Council so that no Elite family could fully control the flow of economy and power in the country they were from.
And Abyss Guild was also under many rules and restrictions they had to follow, but because an SSS Rank hunter was the guild master, the restrictions were a bit loose because Nathan's authority in Somaria was equal to one of the three heads of the World Association.
"Is your son in third year or fourth year?" Asher asked Stephen.
"He is currently in the third year, and he has already applied for the Abyss Guild, despite me being against it," Stephen said as he sighed.
"He said last time he wanted to be a bodyguard for you rather than being the head butler," Stephen said.
"But if you need anything, you should tell him; he will be able to help you greatly inside the World Academy," he spoke.
"Let him follow his dreams," Asher told Stephen as they arrived outside.
"Where is Amelia?" Asher looked around, but he didn't see Amelia anywhere.
"Ah, Sir Damian took Lady Amelia in one of your cars, Young Master," a guard replied to Asher.
"Damian?" Asher spoke.
"Ah, he told me that you had allowed him to use your cars three days ago, so I didn't stop him," the guard got nervous as he thought he had angered Asher.
"Leave it, did the security team follow them?" Asher asked because Damian was the one who was driving it.
"Ah, yes," the guard nodded.
"Stephen, make sure the car gets back in the garage and don't allow anyone else in there from now on," Asher said as he sat in his car.
Stephen stepped back a bit and saw the car leave the estate.
The security team followed Asher as Emmy was not present today. She was busy with the work Asher had given her. And Asher was the heir now, Emmy was his personal assistant. Although Asher knew that now that he was the heir, Emmy would not inform his parents about his actions, he was still careful by only giving her plans that were business-related.
Only Tom knew half of Asher's plans. At first, he didn't want to take part in it, but remembering that his life and his sister's life were in Asher's hand, he quietly did as Asher told him to do. And his current mission was to find some people that were part of Asher's organization in his previous life.
Many Elite family kids were traveling towards the portal dome, and many had already entered it.
At the VIP section of the portal dome, some rich kids saw a black supercar with a bunch of cars behind it arriving there.
"Wow, there are only 5 models of this car in the world," a boy saw the car and got surprised.
Some adults also got curious about the identity of the people that had just arrived there.
Damian got out of the driver's seat, and Amelia stepped out as well. Both of them attracted the attention of many people, but Amelia got recognized pretty quickly due to her eyes. Her beauty made many boys stare at her, but nobody could gather the courage to talk to the daughter of the infamous Greville family.
"See, I am a good driver," Damian said as he smiled.
"Sure, but you should be more worried about my brother right now," Amelia spoke, making Damian cough.
"He is my best friend, surely he won't mind... right?" Damian was confident when he took the car, but now he got worried thinking about Asher's reaction.
"Well, you already got beaten to a pulp by him, so he might just leave you alone." Amelia joked.
Damian smiled seeing that her spirit was back as she was pretty depressed for the past few days about her loss in the tournament. He wanted to cheer her up, so he decided to amuse her a bit by pranking Asher a bit.
"Let's go in, I hope we are in the same class," Damian said as both of them walked towards the portal dome to enter the World Academy.
At the same time, at the reserved section of the portal dome, Sam Allister got out of his car.
He touched his stomach as he got out.
"Fuck this," his face was pale, and his expression changed when he touched his ribs.
Two hours ago,
"Father, I tried my best, but..." Sam was speaking but stopped as he saw his father throwing a glass of wine towards him.
Sam winced in pain as he felt the sting of the glass shards piercing his skin. He quickly opened his eyes and assessed the damage, thankful that the glass hadn't hit him directly in the face.
"Why can't you be like your big brother, you useless bastard?" his father screamed.
He stepped closer to Sam and kicked him in the ribs, causing him to hit the wall and bleed from his head.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Sam started repeating his words, fearing his father's beatings.
"Listen, just live a quiet life inside the World Academy. Your brother is already working with Leonard Tarvian, so just live like you have for the last 15 years," his father shouted at him.
Sam got irritated remembering his interaction with his father.
"Why do I need to suffer like this?" he said as he stepped into the portal dome.
