Chapter 192: Kaiso Family



Chapter 192: Kaiso Family

"So this is the Kaiso family," Zen exclaimed as he admired this building that seemed more like a palace than a house.

The Kaiso family house spread far and wide that walking over here took a long time. Not to mention, there was a giant pool in the center, almost like it's teasing you to just hop right in.

"This is considered average, Zen." Krista Dragoon chuckled softly as she led the way inside.

When the guards saw Krista Dragoon entering, they raised their eyebrows in surprise, seemingly confused as to why she was here.

"P-Princess Krista, what kind of glory do the Kaiso family have to have to come over without an invitation?" The guard asked.

Krista Dragoon didn't glance at the guard and merely continued her walk, "I don't think you're qualified to know that. Inform your elders to meet me otherwise, they might regret it for life if they refuse to see me."

Zen laughed inwardly at Krista Dragoon acting like she's the owner of this house.

The guards were rendered speechless but in the end, they decided to follow Krista Dragoon's words as they rushed inside to inform the elder.

After all, Krista Dragoon was a princess even if she has no power anymore in the imperial court, they still have to act friendly in case there is a change in the court.

Meanwhile, Angela felt discomfort at the Kaiso family as she still remembered what this family did to her and her mother, Lena.

Zen saw Angela's uneasiness so he placed his hand around her waist and whispered softly, "Don't worry, the Kaiso family now is all bark but no bite."

Angela stared at Zen and nodded her hand. She walks closer to Zen, needing his help to guide her way inside.

Sometime later, Krista Dragoon arrived at a large living room with some jeweled chairs arranged neatly.

'Such luxurious wealth. No wonder why they're so powerful.' Zen sighed inwardly at the amount of wealth they spend on something simple like a chair.

"Wealth is made to spend luxuriously to showcase your power and influence to others. The imperial court is even worse as they are grander than the Kaiso family." Krista Dragoon exclaimed and continued.

"The Jade Kingdom is known as the wealth kingdom because we can produce many kinds of things such as the array that we send over to the other kingdom."

"Arrays? What kind of arrays are we talking about?" Zen asked for clarification.

Krista Dragoon pondered for a while before explaining, "Arrays such as killing array, teleportation array, or barrier array. There are times when a mage cannot produce their mana fast enough to deflect so a barrier and killing array is used for convenience. Also, it helps the mage save mana, and we, the Jade Kingdom, have the best product."

Zen was dumbfounded by this information as this was the first time he heard about array instead of formation.

'Cecilia, is there any difference between formation and an array?' Zen sent a mental transmission to Cecilia.

'Arrays are more common and it is usually stored in a device where the caster activates it. While formation is a more profound structure where it takes a lot of time and effort to create one. They both have their cons and pros but for people in this tiny world, an array would seem more suitable.' Cecilia replied quickly and answered Zen's question.

Zen nodded his head as he prepared to take a seat down on the side.

However, Krista Dragoon stopped him and pointed her finger at the center with a smug expression.

Zen laughed heartily, "I never knew you were such an evil person to try that stunt on the Kaiso family."

Afterward, Zen walked toward the center and sat down in the one and only glorious chair that was a golden color. If Zen's thinking wasn't wrong then this chair is only meant for their patriarch, Daemon Kaiso.

Alas, Daemon Kaiso can no longer enjoy such luxury moments because he doesn't even have a life to enjoy them.

"I was wondering why the princesses would suddenly pay our family a grand visit but I never expected her to bring a guest that we deem as an enemy." A voice suddenly echoed from the outside.

Zen crossed his leg slightly and glanced at the middle-aged old man.

With a smirk, Zen exclaimed, "And I didn't expect the elder of a noble family to have such disgusting etiquette. You can't even greet the princess correctly yet have the balls to throw your fit around."

"You-" The middle-aged old man raised his finger and pointed at Zen with an enraged face.

"Elder, I don't think it's polite of you to raise your finger at him otherwise, I think you might receive the same fate as your patriarch, Daemon Kaiso." Kritsa Dragoon intervened as she sat down in a chair next to Zen.

Leila Dragoon and Angela didn't sit down as they stood by their side with Zen holding Angela's hand to calm her emotion.

"Hmph, a newborn calf dared to lecture this old man? I'm William Kaiso, the one that helped the Dragoon's family ancestors in their ascension to the throne back in the old days." William Kaiso shouted in rage as he no longer cared about them.

Just days ago, their stone tablet had two shattered plates and it was Daemon Kaiso and Jared Kaiso. 

The family was shocked in disbelief to see their patriarch had fallen and the culprit was most likely related to the person who kidnapped the patriarch's son, which is none other than Zen, the person currently sitting down at the patriarch's chair.

William Kaiso signaled the rest of the elders as they quickly surrounded Zen and the rest with a murderous gaze.

"Normally, I would still try to act nice but today, I'm no longer in the mood to play some politics. Killing our patriarch and the heir has meant that the imperial family wanted war." William Kaiso said slowly and continued.

"Since you wanted war then so be it. We, the Kaiso family, are never afraid of fighting to the death."
