---TISKIP 2/3---
YEAR 1700 (Two years after they arrived in Bristol)
Alaric continued teaching his family about mathematics, this ti, on Algebra. Despite Eleanor and Linette having it hard at the first half of the Algebra, they managed with Alaric's guidance.
Leonard, Bernard and Edward on the other hand, they kept on complaining and didn't even care about studying. Bernard even once complained, "I'm trying to a successful businessman, not a bloody scholar!"
Although stopped complaining after Alaric used his genius mind and asked for his aunt Eleanor's help on disciplining Bernard. He could only reply to Eleanor with, "Yes dear..."
Everyday continued the sa.
Training Reuben and Thulani on the day, and himself at night ti.
He finally had better chakra control due to his frequent chakra control exercises.
He was now able to perform Madara's Taijutsu at a better pace. Alaric made efforts with improving his EMS abilities. 'Eros' stayed the sa, it could heal his body back to peak state but with 10% of remaining chakra. 'Vulcan' now made him create, control and manipulate any tal within fifty ter radius. 'Kronos' still stayed the sa.
His Wood Release certainly improved, he could now control it better. Create wood from underneath the ground, enforce it or any existing wood within five ter radius.
His was slowly able to handle the toll of the Swift Release on his body, enabling him to use it use it twenty tis before passing out. "I'm glad I can even do this, soon... I'll make sure that I'll be able to use this infinitely... if possible."
His Steele Release though... he finally gave up on it as he assud that it only improved his 'Vulcan' making it possible to increase his control. 'I don't know about the logic there... I should move on.'
He always monitored Reuben and Thulani's exercises and sparring sessions. Making sure that they were always hitting their limit with all types of workout. Push-ups, Pull-ups, Sit-ups, Jogging, Sprinting and etc.
Alaric made sure to spar with his two disciples, trying to limit his strength and speed as much as possible. He did this so that they'll get used to facing him as an opponent, when they fight other people, they'll definitely win.
Reuben was finally able to produce more power to his attacks, finally utilizing his lower body if his hands were held. Alaric taught him how to think outside the box, stun opponents, and target blind spots.
Thulani who was tall for his age, was now even stronger than before. Not at the youngest Kenway's level, but Alaric knew that Thulani's nine-year old body was stronger than the bodies of teenagers. Due to that, Alaric made sure to implent speed and stamina as Thulani was lacking in that area.
Seeing their improvent, Alaric was satisfied. If he was Jounin level, then they were nearing Genin. 'Soon, I'll teach them battle tactics to improve their battle IQ.'
Business was booming since England, the Swedish Empire, Ottoman Empire, United Provinces, and Brunswick-Luneburg were preparing for war against the Tsardom of Russia, Kalmyk Khanate, Cossack Hetmanate, Denmark-Norway, Electorate of Saxony, Poland-Lithuania, Prussia and Hanover.
'This is the Great Northern War my Professor from history class talked about. It will start in 1700 and end at 1721... there's also the War of the Spanish Succession where the every decided to have a slight truce and go to war with the France, Spanish Monarchy, Bavaria, Cologne and Mantua while secretly killing each other despite the said truce.'
Alaric wanted to sell the Celestial Salve to both sides but had a discussion with William Penn by the night.
"We cannot do that," Penn shook his head and glared at Alaric, "Think about how long the war will last if the other sides of the coin gets their hands on the Celestial Salve?"
'I do not care though,' Alaric thought but stayed silent.
"If the enemies of England sohow wins this war," Penn paused then continued, "What will happen to us, 'Laric?"
"..."
"One by one, they'll try to destroy us Englishn."
'I'm no Englishn, and they can't kill ... but he's right,' Alaric thought as he cupped his cheek, 'I can't protect my family forever, I also want to explore the world.'
"Fine..."
"Don't worry lad," Penn stared at Alaric, "Here... take a look."
The middle-aged Quaker slid the paper he was holding to the front, making Alaric read the contents.
Royal Palace - 10,000 vials (30% Discount)
Swedish Empire - 1,000 vials
Ottoman Empire - 3000 vials (5% Discount)
United Provinces of the Netherlands - 15,000 (10% Discount)
Brunswick Lüneburg - 500 Vials
Kingdom of Portugal - 3000 vials (5% Discount)
"Damn!" Alaric widened his eyes after reading the contents. "That's a lot of money right there!"
"Yes," Penn nodded while pointing at the paper, "You will not be affected by the discounts as it is I who negotiated with each country's official envoy."
"Sure..." Alaric nodded then asked, "But 30% discount? You sure love your King."
Alaric's statent, made William Penn genuinely laugh, making the youngest Kenway raise a brow.
"You can call it that," Penn cald down and explained, "I call it loyalty to the crown."
"Sure... have it your way," Alaric started walking out of the library and waved his hands, "I suggest you tell those envoys to ready their caravans and have at least dozens of guards. You'll have the products by tonight."
Stopping by the door, Alaric turned his head back to William Penn. "Oh, by the way, buy a huge land will ya? One that's for farming. Deduct what you'll give to whatever's the price."
"Alright..."

A 'huge' chunk was out from Alaric's balance but he only whistled in disbelief as to how much money William Penn gave him within that week.
[ £470,500]
[Current Balance: £538,426 1s. 8d.](17,229,634R)
'How does he get this much money? Did they pay in advance? In euros? Nah, I don't care... as long as I get the money.'
'And I can see Penn took £17,000... ain't that too much for so land?'
