After hearing that, Mikhos hesitated for a while.
Obviously, he didn’t understand what Mitchell meant when he asked that question.
After some thought, Mikhos replied, “My dear nephew, don’t dwell on that. Since you are my second sister’s son, you are my blood nephew. Don’t worry, I won’t have any prejudice against you.”
Obviously, their conversation was not on the same frequency.
Mitchell also felt that their conversation was incongruous.
This sort of matters could be so easily seen, couldn’t even be considered as a prejudice.
Come to think of it, his uncle probably said that because he was worried that Mitchell would reproach himself.
After all, in the eyes of the entire continent, the orcs were the most savage, despicable, and bloodthirsty race.
It was also inevitable that people would think like that.
Without further comment on the subject, Mikhos asked Mitchell what had happened over the years.
Mitchell had nothing to hide either.
Other than the system, he told him about everything else.
Mikhos’s face grew darker as he listened to Mitchell’s story.
“I didn’t expect that bastard Xeno to be so cold-blooded and heartless. He even schemed against his own son! Indeed, none of the orcs are good.”
With that, he seemed to realize that he had misspoken. He said softly to Mitchell, “Nephew, I’m not talking about you.”
Mitchell waved his hand,
“It’s fine.”
As far as Mitchell was concerned, every race had its bad traits.
Even the peace-loving elves were, in actuality, extremely proud.
They seemed to be peace-loving on the surface, but in reality, they looked down on those ugly races because of their godly beauty.
Therefore, no one race was perfect.
To ease the awkwardness, Mikhos changed the topic.
“Nephew, I haven’t thanked you for saving my wife’s life. I wonder what would you like to have? As long as you tell me, I can get you even the moon in the sky.”
Mikhos seemed to dote on this nephew whom he had just met for the first time.
Perhaps it was because he missed his sister, who he hadn’t heard from for so many years, that he had transferred that feeling onto Mitchell.
Mitchell closed his eyes and shook his head.
“Uncle, since you treat me as your nephew and there’s no estrangement between us, then helping Aunt with her treatment is simply my duty. There’s no need to thank me. Furthermore, the Silver Dragon Egg was originally your property to begin with. It is only natural to use it on you all.”
Mitchell was a simple man.
He would treat whoever was good to him, equally good as well.
Since the Leon Family had accepted him sincerely, he naturally wouldn’t be plotting against them.
However, Mikhos simply chuckled, “Nephew, you’re being too polite. I’m not only thanking you for treating your aunt, it’s also a welcome gift for you as your uncle. In short, if you desire any rare treasures, just feel free to tell me. Of course, you will be a part of our Leon Clan in the future. The wealth of the Leon Clan will also be yours to use.”
Mikhos wasn’t being gracious when he said that.
Given the wealth of the Leon Family, even if Mitchell was to squander it lavishly, it would last him a few lifetimes.
Mitchell stopped being coy when he saw that Mikhos was so persistent.
“Uncle, I do have some needs.”
“Nephew, please feel free to speak your mind. As your uncle, I will definitely fulfil them for you.”
Mitchell said after pondering for a moment, “Uncle, I wonder if there are any rare beasts in Storm City?”
“Rare beasts?” Mikhos was a little taken aback.
Initially, he had tried to guess what Mitchell would like to have.
Gold, silver, jewels, weapons, armor, elixirs, and treasures.
He thought of almost every possibility.
But, he had never expected Mitchell to ask for rare beasts.
Although he was really curious, Mikhos refrained from asking his nephew why he wanted the rare beasts.
Since he had already boasted that he would satisfy his nephew’s request, there was nothing much for him to ask.
Mikhos stood up and paced around in the living room.
He rubbed his chin with his right hand and frowned as if he was trying to recall something.
Seeing that, Mitchell said gently,
“Uncle, it’s fine if you can’t get it. It’s no big deal.”
Mikhos raised his hand and waved it,
“No. If my nephew wants it, then he must receive it! However, I’ve really never heard of anyone rearing rare beasts in Storm City. I’ll get the butler to ask around first. If anyone in Storm City has a rare beast, they will definitely give us, the Leon Family, the due respect.”
Mitchell wanted to ask him to save all that trouble.
However, Mikhos was very persistent and even summoned the old butler over.
“Neil, send someone to find out if there are any families in Storm City that rear rare beasts. After you find out, you’ll have to get it from them regardless of the cost. I’m going to give it to my nephew, Mitchell, as a welcome gift.”
After hearing that, the old butler Neil immediately nodded and left without another word.
After the old butler left, Mikhos patted his forehead as he suddenly recalled something,
“See how poor my memory is. I haven’t arranged your accommodations yet.
“From today onwards, you will be a part of our Leon Family. You are my flesh and blood, so naturally, I will arrange your accommodations for you.”
Having said that, Mikhos looked to the room where Madam was in and said sternly,
“Clementine, how long are you going to eavesdrop on us? Aren’t you going to come out and arrange a place for your older brother to stay?”
The young mistress, who was eavesdropping in the room, tensed up and walked out with a pout.
“Father, how did you know that I was eavesdropping inside?”
Mikhos rolled his eyes at her and replied, “With your restless personality, you wouldn’t have remained in there quietly for so long.”
Clementine was speechless and stuck out her tongue when she heard that.
“Mitchell, I will get your younger sister to arrange a place for you later. You will stay here from now on. This is your home and we are your family. As for that Xeno Blood Roar, although it’s inappropriate for me to say that about your father, I still have to be frank with you. You will be better off without him!”
At the mention of Xeno Blood Roar, Mikhos remembered what Mitchell had just described earlier and he seemed very furious.
It was because from these details, he could tell that his sister definitely wasn’t treated well in Blood Roar City.
Therefore, he naturally did not have any good feelings towards Xeno.
Mitchell didn’t think anything was wrong when he heard Mikhos’ words.
After all, he didn’t like Xeno either.
On the contrary, he would rather get closer to his Leon Family’s relatives.
With thought in mind, Mitchell nodded at Clementine and lightly said,
“Since that’s the case, I’ll have to trouble you then, Sister.”
