Chapter 54 You Aren't Thinking Of Getting It For Free, Are You?



The Carriage stopped, from the Carriage, Aldric stepped out, then, he cleared everything and in a respectful tone,

"Young Master, please." He requested.

Vaan then stepped out of the Carriage, then, his eyes fell on the large mansion in front of him.

The Stormweaver Mansion, it was nowhere near as grand as the Vesta Family Mansion, however, it was still a majestic building. The garden at the entrance was well taken care of, Vaan then glanced at the guards standing at the Gate.

"So this is my Sera's Mansion, huh..." Vaan muttered.

Some of the memories rushed into his mind when he glanced at the Mansion, however, he was now already used to this and didn't react to it.

For him, it was just like recalling some distant memories.

Without wasting any more time, Vaan walked towards the Mansion.

"Young Master Vaan."

The Guards standing at the Gates bowed their heads as they greeted.

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Vaan nodded at them but just as he was about to walk in, one of the Guards spoke up, "Please give the Invitation Card that was sent to you, Young Master Vaan."

Vaan raised his eyebrow.

Since when did the Royalty have to prove that it was invited when entering its subject's mansion? Although the relationship between Vesta House and Stormweaver Family wasn't like the one between the Royalty and the Subject, stopping him and asking for an invitation was no different than disrespecting the Vesta Family.

Vaan narrowed his eyes, he wanted nothing more than to punch this guard and show him his place, however,

'You are impulsive, you try to solve everything with violence, but that is not how you become a ruler, Vaan.'

Vaan quickly recalled his mother's words and decided to implement them.

Not right now...

He needed to act like a ruler...

He needed to see just how far do these people dare to go.

Vaan glanced at Aldric. Aldric quickly understood what Vaan wanted and quickly passed the letter to the guard.

Vaan walked inside.

As he left, the guard who got the invitation letter smiled widely,

"Heh. What a pushover! To think I would get to order around someone from the Vesta Family."

The other guard standing beside him laughed as well,

"Look how happy you are just because you got to order him around, but think about mister Aldric, he gets to do that every single day."

"Mister Aldric, how does it feel to have a Vesta attending you?" The Guard questioned with a big smile on his face.

The two guards laughed out loud.

Aldric, on the other hand, panicked. He recalled how he was beaten ruthlessly and his face went pale.

"S-Shut your fucking mouth! If you have a death wish, don't fucking involve me in it! Foolish bastards!"

He swore as he rushed towards Vaan.

He had no plans of offending Young Master Vaan any further. As for these foolish guards...

They could go fuck themselves.

Aldric didn't care.

He quickly followed Vaan and appeared behind him.

"There is no one to show me the way," Vaan commented.

"You are usually expected to go to the Guest Room, Young Master Vaan..." Aldric replied.

"I am 'expected' to huh..." Vaan noted.

"Show me the way." He ordered.

"As you command." Aldric bowed his head as he showed Vaan the way to the Guestroom.

"I apologize but I cannot follow you in, Young Master." Aldric spoke as the two of them appeared in front of a room.

Vaan nodded, then, he walked into the room.

And just as he thought,

There was no one inside.

He was 'expected' to wait for Seraphina.

'Heh.'

A small smile appeared on Vaan's face.

His eyes, however, weren't laughing at all.

He sat on the sofa and he placed his legs on the table in front of him as he waited for Seraphina.

15 minutes later, the doors of the room finally opened.

A beautiful white-haired girl, along with 2 maids, walked in, her serene expression changed a little when she saw Vaan's sitting posture, soon, however, a gentle smile appeared on her face as she bowed elegantly,

"It has been a while since we saw each other, Young Master Vaan.

Please forgive me for coming late, I was getting ready since Young Master had come to visit."

Of course, Vaan wasn't buying any of that bullshit.

However, he controlled his emotion and smiled.

"I do not mind at all, Sera.

Have a seat."

He spoke as he pointed at the chair in front of him. All this time, he didn't stand up from his chair, neither did he remove his legs from the table.

Seraphina and her two maids narrowed their eyes when they saw this attitude, however, Seraphina then smiled and sat on the chair Vaan pointed at.

Vaan finally fixed his posture as he moved his legs from the table and leaned towards Seraphina.

"It has been a while indeed."

Vaan muttered.

He was currently experiencing an influx of memories, all the time he spent with this woman in front of him, how she treated him, looked down on him, made fun of him, duped him, and used him, he learned about it all.

Vaan was enraged, however, his anger wasn't directly toward Seraphina,

Seraphine was just an ambitious young woman who did everything she could to increase her family's status. For her, the previous Vaan was simply a tool to achieve her dreams. Honestly, Vaan didn't think what she did was wrong.

A pushover like the previous Vaan, he would have done the same if he ever encountered a fool like him.

Vaan's anger was directed toward the previous Vaan.

'Just how much of a simp can one be!? That bitch would have licked her feet if she asked him to!'

Vaan cursed inwardly, disgusted by how the previous Vaan acted.

"I heard Young Master Vaan has been working hard and studying magic." While Vaan was thinking all this, Seraphina questioned.

Vaan looked at Seraphina for a while, then, he just smiled.

He didn't mind what Seraphina did 'before'.

However, things change if just like the previous Vaan, this woman was trying to use him as her 'tool' as well.

He didn't like that one bit.

"Indeed, studying magic is important, after all."

"Indeed, Indeed, I completely agree with Young Master Vaan." Seraphina nodded continuously.

Then, she glanced at Vaan and,

"By the way, Young Master Vaan, did you manage to get your hands on that?" She questioned directly.

"Right, you wanted the 'How to Stabilize your Magic Circles' Book from the Vesta Family's library, correct?" Vaan questioned.

"It would forever be indebted to Young Master if he could lend me that book for a few days." Seraphina looked into Vaan's eyes as she put her hair behind her ears.

The previous Vaan would have started to blush if he saw something like this, however,

"Of course, I can do anything for you, Sera."

Vaan replied, then, he suddenly moved and held Seraphina's hands,

"But that book is quite precious,

You aren't thinking of getting it for free, are you?"
