Chapter 120 : Head of branch Alexandre Eswald

"From now on, I'm the head of this branch. Those who are against it..." Alex's gaze became sharper.

"...make yourselves known."

After Alex's declaration, silence reigned in the arena. As the members of the branch family looked into his sharp eyes, they gulped in apprehension.

The current Alex didn't resemble his usual self; some, like his daughters, had never seen him like this. With his slightly pale face, he looked very fierce, not different from a war commander, which he actually was, but they didn't know about it.

Alex's gaze then focused on someone in particular – none other than his uncle Robert, the very one who had opposed his ascension to the head of the branch years ago, claiming that he was weak and useless.

"Don't you have anything to say ?" Questioned Alex.

Instead of answering, Robert jumped from his place and landed in the arena. When his feet met the ground, there was a booming sound.

He then started to walk towards Alex. Seeing the way Robert carried himself as he approached Alex, Grace thought about intervening to stop him, but in the end, she just watched like the others.

A few seconds later, Robert came face to face with Alex. He was shorter compared to Alex, but no one thought so due to the towering aura he exuded.

"Years ago, when I said that you were unqualified for the position of the head of the branch, was I wrong ?" Asked Robert.

"No, you were right. However, things have changed since then," replied Alex.Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com

"Have they?"

"You tell me, am I still 'weak and good-for-nothing'?"

"No, you seem decent right now," replied Robert.

"Decent?"

"Yes, 'decent.' What did you think I would say, that you are incredible? Boy, stay down-to-earth. There are many other Level 4 individuals stronger than you. Hell, you're not even close to the strength your father had when he was at Level 4!" exclaimed Robert.

"YES, WE ARE WILLING TO HELP YOU!"

Be it those of the older or younger generation, they all responded to Alex with determined eyes.

"Good, I will count on you from now on"

"With that, it was official; Alex was now the head of his branch of the family, a branch that would, in the future, lead the whole Eswald family once again.

"I have a lot of things to say to all of you, so we will directly move to the meeting room," ordered Alex.

Everyone nodded and started walking towards the meeting room, with Lilia leading them.

"What do I do with this?" wondered Alex as he glanced at the armor made of smoke containing many attributes.

"It would be a waste to just let it dissipate in the air," added Alex as he compressed the smoke into a round ball.

"Hmm" as he walked behind everyone, Alex kept pondering on what to do with the smoke.

It contained too many attributes to let it dissipate, and it's not like he can store it or keep it with him everywhere.

"Ah, I can try that for the time being, but I still need to find a solution fast" Exclaimed Alex.

Alex opened his mouth, then swallowed the ball of smoke!

He was going to store the smoke in his body, since he was immune to smoke, he had nothing to worry about.

The problem was that stopping the smoke from dissipating was going to consume his mana, even though it was within his body.

'Later, I will ask Lilia about this; she might have a solution, but for now, it's time for the meeting.'

As he walked toward the mansion, Alex smiled.

'Head of branch Alexandre Eswald, I like how it sounds'
