Chapter 45: Moving into Their New Home

The next morning, Klaus helped his mother pack the few belongings they would take with them. Though their items wer't valuable, they were what had sustained them over the past year, and they had grown attached to them. After packing, Klaus stored everything in his space ring.

They th made their way toward the city. After an hour of walking and chatting, they reached the city gates and used Klaus's idtity badge to gain try. Wh Klaus showed the badge to the guards, their expressions shifted to surprise. Klaus couldn't help but smile.

As expected, his ID had a differt effect. The guards didn't ev ask him to remove his sunglasses and cap. They simply waved them through. Klaus and his mother walked a little further until they reached a small park with a bch. They sat down, and Klaus called the number the manager had giv him.

A few minutes later, a car pulled up to the park. A young man stepped out and greeted them. "Mr. Klaus, I am from the Royal Gold Reserve Bank. I'm here to pick you up and take you to your new home," he said, oping the car door for them. Klaus nodded in acknowledgmt and led his mother into the car.

The vehicle sped away, leaving the slum behind. Klaus looked at his mother and smiled, feeling a wave of relief and happiness. Their lives were finally taking a turn for the better.

After about an hour of driving, they arrived at a grand mansion with a majestic gate. As the gates swung op, they revealed a wide, tiled path lined with lush flowers. The car drove through, and after five minutes of slow driving, the mansion came into view.

It was a small mansion, similar to what Klaus had se in the projection, but seeing it in person left him astonished. The tire mansion was built tirely of glass. The glasses have a hint of diamond brilliance in them.

However, while the house was built using glass, they are nowhere brittle. They are durable glass made from the rareless material that can withstand an attack from ev a Tier 7 monster. From the walls to the roofing, everything is built with the best quality material. Had Klaus asked, he would have be told the house is more than a billion gold coins.

The car pulled up to the front trance, and the young man from the Royal Gold Reserve Bank oped the door for them. Klaus and his mother stepped out, their eyes wide with awe. The young man led them to the front door, which was framed by a delicate pattern of etched glass.

Inside, the mansion was just as impressive. The interior was bright and airy, with glass walls providing an unobstructed view of the suring gard. The floors were polished marble, and the furnishings were tastefully arranged, creating a bld of comfort and sophistication.

From the inside, one can see the outside clearly, however, the same cannot be said for wh you are outside, or wh you look at the next room.

Klaus's mother looked a, her eyes filled with wonder and relief. Klaus felt a mix of pride and happiness as he watched her take in their new home.

The young man from the bank handed Klaus a remote key, "This is your new home. If you need anything or have any questions, please contact the manager directly. The maids and security will arrive within the hour"

"Thank you," Klaus replied, taking the key. He turned to his mother, who was still absorbing the grandeur of their new house.

"This is it, Mom. I hope you like it," Klaus said, his voice filled with anticipation.

"Of course I do. This is wonderful, Klaus," his mother replied with a beaming smile. Seeing her happiness, Klaus felt a surge of joy and relief.

About an hour later, two doz people arrived at the house. Klaus was tak aback by their sudd appearance. There were t wom and t m, each a Grandmaster-stage expert. He hurried to greet them.

"Master Klaus, I am Kofi, the head of security task to protecting you and your mother," said a young man in his early thirties, bowing slightly.

Klaus smirked, his expression turning mock-serious. He wasn't about to letting her win just like that.

"Let's see," he said, raising his hand and slowly counting on his fingers, pretding to recall something. His mischievous smile wided as he continued the act, his eyes glancing up at Ohema with a playful glint.

"How have you be?" Ohema asked, her voice softer now.

Klaus leaned back, a small smile tugging at his lips. "I won a lottery."

"Errh..." Ohema responded, caught off guard. Though her tone remained calm, Klaus could tell, ev through the video call, that she was slightly shak by the news. He had always be good at picking up on small shifts in people's emotions. However, he didn't act on it, rather, he continue to tease her.

"Yep, you heard me right. This little guy is now a billionaire," Klaus said, flashing a smirk. "You should let me take you out and spoil you rott."

Ohema raised an eyebrow but smiled, clearly amused. Unlike Klaus, who was trying to be more reserve, she didn't hold back as she replied

"Finally," she said with a playful grin. "I'll let you know wh I'm free."

Klaus blinked, surprised by her response. He hadn't expected her to accept his playful offer so readily. He chuckled, trying to mask the surprise. "Alright th, I'll be waiting," he said smoothly, but inwardly, he was a little shocked.

Ohema smiled warmly, exchanging a few more playful words before ding the call. Klaus was still smiling to himself wh, out of nowhere, a voice broke the silce.

"You little player," his mother teased from the doorway. "I knew you had game, but I never expected you to be this quick."

Klaus nearly jumped out of his skin, his face flushing red. He hadn't ev noticed his mother slip into the room. Her commt left him both blushing and shocked.

"Mom!" he shouted, trying to hide his embarrassmt. "How long have you be standing there?"

His mother chuckled, clearly joying his flustered reaction. "Long ough," she said with a playful grin. "Seems like my boy has grown into quite the smooth talker."

"You should really introduce me to this mysterious Ohema of yours," she added, her playful smile widing.

"Mom..." Klaus groaned, trying to laugh it off. "It's not like that. We're just frids."

His mother raised an eyebrow. "Mhm, sure. 'Just frids,'" she teased. "Well, wh you're ready to bring her a, I'll be here, waiting."

Klaus sighed, shaking his head with a smile. "I'll let you know if it ever gets to that point." Klaus forced his mother out of his room. He sighed and th tapped on some part of the wall, a small passage oped and he walked through tering the training g.
