My Magical System

He did not expect that even in this world, he would experience the same thing he experienced on earth, the traffic! But he saw some grand-looking carriages overtaking the ordinary-looking ones.

Weirdly though, the guards just let them pass by. On the other hand, those carriages that didn’t look so grand were being held.

A soundless chuckle escaped from his mouth while thinking, ‘discrimination was strong in this place.’

He wanted to ask the coachman to do what the others did. After all, he made sure that their little play was very believable. He hadn’t just rented a grand-looking carriage but bought it for 5 gold royals.

Regardless, he disregarded the thought as it wasn’t a race of whoever comes first. And even though they were riding a grand carriage, he believed that they would not succeed in overtaking the others. After all, the guards were meticulously checking the invitation parchments. Yet, Yeman wondered why the guards just let those grand-looking carriages pass without checking them. Perhaps the insignia on their carriages was the reason.

It took them 2 hours just to pass through the towering gate of the palace.

.....

Finally, they arrived. Their carriage stopped in front of the grand-looking door, a few meters away.

The invitees were climbing down from their carriages. As he was sitting near the carriage’s door, he climbed down first and helped the girls. A flush of redness was visible on Night’s face when her lord touched her hand to help her climb down.

Yeman secretly handed a note to their coachman. Their coachman was no other than the veteran thief! Reppo Callidu! Well, he needed this man’s help again. Reppo, on the other hand, felt pressured at the presence of these two people. He knew the young lady and young man. He even witnessed their battle. Each of them had unusual abilities. So Reppo could only shudder at them.

Perhaps the middle-aged woman with them was not an ordinary person either. They seemed like a family from a great noble family.

He wanted to ask them about this so-called lord of them. But Reppo Callidu didn’t have the guts to ask them now.

Looking at them from the perspective of other people who didn’t know their identity, they looked like so normal. However, it was different to Reppo who was the sole witness of their recent fights.

Reppo quickly hid the note underneath his clothes. He needed to start his mission as well. When the young man and the others went inside the grand hall, he safely parked the carriage together with other carriages that were waiting for their bosses.

He then started reading the note.

‘Goldenlotus?!’ He exclaimed inwardly, out of shock.

His first mission was the branch family of the Gentlewind family. And now, the Goldenlotus! He felt so curious for some reason. He then proceeded to read it. But before that, he wiped the bead of sweat that was visible on his forehead.

Goldenlotus family wasn’t an ordinary family. Unlike the Gentlewind family that has many branches. The Goldenlotus was an actual clan with only one branch, ruled by the Yuyie family.

However, although they were only ruled by one family, it didn’t mean that they were weaker compared to the family with many branches.

In fact, they were the number 8 family. The fifth strongest family in the empire. Much stronger than the Gentlewind family. And their patriarch was a scary person. He was a well-known person who unlocked his bloodline power at a young age. Just thinking of how many seals he already unlocked at his current age.

Perhaps he almost ascended to godhood.

Reppo could only clear his throat . But good thing that his mission today didn’t require him to enter the house of such a family. He just needed to gather some information. Also, investigate the family’s recent transaction with other people.

Wait, Reppo Callidu stopped for a moment and thought. ‘Perhaps the lord is also an ascender who already ascended to godhood. Since those shady people are never afraid of their enemies.’

Reppo then jumped into the shadow and his figure disappeared within it. He used one of the skills he learned from being a member of the thief guild for a long time.

It was a medium level skill that enabled him to blend his presence into the shadow and become one with it.

While he was in the shadow, he could freely move without everyone noticing his presence. Well, there were exceptions, people with high perception abilities could detect him. However, only gifted people had such.

Regardless, the name of this ability was the Shadow Fusion technique.

He then continued towards the distance. He noticed a carriage from the Goldenlotus family a while ago, overtaking them.

Just as he suspected, ahead of him, he saw some of the Goldenlotus personal armies, standing guard around their carriage.

‘Tsk gotta listen to their conversation.’

Reppo thought as he moved closer to them. He could listen at a distance about 50 meters away from them using one of his abilities.

Meanwhile, Yeman and the others entered the grand hall.

When they stepped inside it, all of them gawked in amazement.

The grand hall was so shiny! It was their impression when the yellowish lights, coming from the ceiling brushed their skin and greeted their eyes. On top of that, the grand hall was so spacious! He believed it had the size– half of the baseball field.

In the center, they saw rows of grand-looking tables. On it was different kinds of delicious-looking foods. The grand scenery was paired with melodious music.

But.

The reality.

The atmosphere inside wasn’t an ideal one.

Some people who were wearing less elegant dresses were silently standing at the corner. While some people in grand-looking dresses were conversing with unrestrained voices, talking about their new things such as expensive jewelry.
