Shortly after Vaan raised his aura cultivation to the Early Rank 3 Aura Grandmaster, all his physical attributes had finally reached the threshold of Rank 4 in his Lycan Transformation state.
'I've finally reached a satisfactory level of power required to venture into the depths of the Thousand Fog Mountains,' Vaan thought.
Given his various abilities and quality equipnt, if he encountered another Mid-stage High Witch like Fallen Witch Elvira, he had confidence in defeating the person by himself.
Of course, that only applied to normal Mid-stage High Witches.
If the Mid-stage High Witch was advanced in multiple power paths like him, her combat prowess would be above her cultivation level.
Knock, knock…
The door to Vaan's guestroom was suddenly knocked before a maidservant on the other side inford him, "Lord Helia wishes to see you in the Great Hall, Sir Vahn."
"Understood," Vaan calmly replied.
Shortly after he was dressed, he exited the room and went to join Helia in the Great Hall for breakfast.
'I'm practically a freeloader at this point,' Vaan wryly thought.
He recalled the nurous occasions he had joined Helia in the Great Hall for quality als since he had arrived in Redpine City.
Nevertheless, Helia didn't seem to care about it, so neither should he.
"I heard you wanted to see , Lord Helia," Vaan ntioned upon his arrival before he asked with a subtle glint, "It looks like you have sothing to ask of ?"
"That's right, Sir Vahn," Helia nodded before she gestured for him to take a seat at the dining table. Shortly after he did, she continued, "I have a favor to ask of you."
"What do you want from ?" Vaan calmly asked, figuring it was most likely related to Sunpeak Town.
And as it turned out, he was not wrong.
"It's about Sunpeak Town," Helia openly confessed as she vaguely suspected Vaan had been waiting for her to bring up the matter.
"As you probably already know, Sunpeak Town was prosperous and great for trades before it declined. But now that Lord Aeliana recovered and returned to her territory, the curse over that region is bound to be lifted by her."
"When it does, Sunpeak Town, without a doubt, will rise again. Now is the best ti to invest in real estate over there. However, I don't have any luck in entering the market," Helia ntioned.
"So you want to act as an interdiary to help you enter the real estate market over there?" Vaan gave a slight smile that was neither cold nor warm.
"Of course not," Helia shook her head and said, "I know better than to ask that of you. I would only be making things difficult for you. After all, my relationship with Sunpeak Town is not good."
In truth, the thought did cross her mind.
But after she read Vaan's expression, she quickly changed her mind. It was impossible for her to enter the real estate business in Sunpeak Town, not with all its townspeople bearing grudges against her.
After all, she did impose sanctions on the town after the curse outbreak, barring its people from leaving for other cities.
As such, she could only settle for her next best option.
"I was hoping you could set up a general potion store, and I supply you the potions to sell. If we expand our potion business to Sunpeak Town, our sales will increase substantially in the foreseeable future," Helia stated.
"That won't be necessary, Lord Helia," Vaan smiled and said, "I've already made prior arrangents. You just need to send the potions to Dahlia in Sunpeak Town and discuss the details with her."
"Oh?" Helia uttered with surprise before she wryly said, "It seems you have been waiting for this, Sir Vahn."
"I don't know what you are talking about, Lord Helia. It was just a coincidence," Vaan feigned ignorance with a smile.
As they chatted over breakfast, Vaan shifted the topic, "I haven't seen any of your six other daughters lately."
"And you won't be seeing them again any ti soon. I've sent them to the royal magic academy in Blackthorn City to study," Helia stated.
"I see," Vaan thoughtfully uttered.
Although Helia's decision seed harsh on her daughters, they'll be humbled after they interact with many other young witches of superior standing compared to them.
It could save their lives one day.
After all, the experience of dealing with the real world would lower their chance of blindly offending powerful people and courting death like typical young masters.
Soti later, the droning noise of a magic airship grew louder as it approached the city, or to be more exact, Helia's Castle.
"That must be Headmaster Astoria returning," Helia guessed before she stood up from her seat with a suggestion, "Let us head out and welco her."
"Of course, Lord Helia," Vaan candidly agreed.
He had expected Astoria to return around nightti, but she had evidently finished her business early. Furthermore, she ca back with Aeliana.
In other words, they were ready to set out on their journey to the Thousand Fog Mountains together.
He didn't mind leaving earlier as he had settled everything in Redpine City.
That said, there was still one other matter…
