Chapter 211
🕑 Added 2024-08-31 02:00:02 +0000 UTCAnton was looking at her sister across the dining table. She was very excited while telling him how the school looked and because of that he became intrigued as well. He imagined if he joined the university it could become a whole new adventure like something out of a Harry Potter film but the problem was he was already seventeen years old and was considered an archmage by the people of Zalnothel.
Not only that, his father needed him to stay in the manor since their business was still very dependent on him. Another fact that Anton couldn’t forget was the Undead Coalition. He got an inkling that Zalnothel was the main target of the undead organization so he should prepare himself to fight it out with the undead.
That meant that he should stop being lazy and concentrate on leveling up his Diablo II characters.
Nemina informed him that their family wasn’t bothered by any powerful beings from the city because based on the magic that Anton had shown so far and the enchanted items that he had produced, he was considered weak and unknowledgeable amongst the archmages. They were only a bit curious about the fortuitous phenomenon that he encountered to allow him to increase his power at a very rapid pace.
Even the movies that made a lot of the nobles and mages interested were considered trivial by the most powerful beings of the city. This information was shared with Nemina by some of the nobles that they had business dealings with.
Anton felt insulted but at the same time relieved since he could use this time while everyone was underestimating him to increase his power using his Diablo II system. That was if he stopped being lazy and concentrated on leveling up so he decided to do just that.
“Brother, the school is really huge, beautiful, and interesting. They also had a dorm. I would have liked to stay there but I feel like it would be better for me to stay at home first since we are still not truly stable.”
“If you want to experience the dorm life in the school, you can do so. You don’t need to worry about our family since I will make sure that we will progress in this city and become stable. I can talk to Father about that and you can even ask Ms. Damby to accompany you if she’s willing. During the weekends, you and Ms. Damby could always return home, and even during weekdays if you want to since the school was less than an hour from here.”
When Anna heard what Anton had said, she paused and he saw that his sister was thinking deeply about her next move. After a few minutes, Anton could see that Anna had reached a decision.
“Thank you, brother. I have decided that I would like to stay in the school dorms. Will you talk to father about it?” Anna said and Anton nodded.
The two tutors who were eating with them didn’t interrupt the sibling's talk and just listened. They didn’t interject anything since the siblings still needed to talk to their father about that decision.
After lunch, Anton headed to his study and asked Colin to get the items from the warehouse that Eric had already completed.
“Sir, most of the rooms in the mansion already have the sculptures you want,” Colin said.
“Okay bring all of them here including the ones that Eric had already completed so I can begin enchanting all of them. Please ask assistance from others.”
Colin exited the study but returned after a few minutes. He brought with him all items that needed enchantment and he was followed by several helpers. They put all the items on the floor and then after that, all of them exited the study except Colin and two maids.
Anton asked Colin to bring to him all the sculptures that he needed to enchant a specific enchantment like the air conditioner and Colin and the two maids did so. After that, he proceeded to enchant the lanterns and so on until all of the sculptures were done. Colin asked the maids and some helpers to bring out all the enchanted items to be distributed to all the rooms.
After that, Anton began enchanting all the items that Eric had made and kept them in his inventory. When everything was completed, it was already five in the afternoon. He told Colin that he would be busy meditating and only call him once his family was ready for dinner.
Anton then entered the world of Sanctuary to level up his Druid Character. During the next two hours, he completed the Chaos Sanctuary but kept one seal unsealed so Diablo wouldn’t appear. He planned to kill Diablo after dinner. He did level up once so his druid was now level 29.
His plan was after killing Diablo, he would switch his druid’s character build to Elemental Wind druid. He parked his character beside the private stash in Pandemonium Fortress and exited the study.
Colin was surprised to see him.
“Sir, your father hasn’t arrived yet.”
“Father still not here? It’s already seven in the evening! Let's go to the dining room to wait for them.”
Anton wasn’t worried about his father since the vampires and Lucas was with him and Nemina. After a few minutes, everyone arrived.
“Anton sorry you have been waiting for us,” Anders told his son.
“It’s alright, Father, I haven’t waited too long. Is everything alright?”
“The shop is almost ready! We will have a grand opening on Sunday so you will need to put all of your enchanted items in the section that you prepared.”
“Please tell Eric since he’s also in charge of naming the enchanted items or at least his team is.”
“He’s already aware so we will all go to the shop tomorrow so you could put the things there. I also think that it would be best if you create notes that would best describe the enchanted items including their limitation so we could train our salespeople tomorrow,” Nemina said.
Soon the food arrived and everyone started eating. After dinner, all of them continued to talk.
“I found a magical item again that could record the movies. It was a pity that the first one was not good,” Frederick said.
Frederick found a recording magic item but when Anton inspected it, the quality was very poor so they decided not to buy it.
“Okay, I’ll go with you tomorrow to check it out.”
After that Anders, Nemina, and the others focused on talking about the family business and Anton was glad that everyone was excited about it. Several minutes passed and when it looked like everyone was finished talking, Anton told his father about Anna’s desire to remain at the school dorm.
“The school dorm is a good place for Anna to stay since it would allow her to mingle with people with the same status and even roughly the same age as her. It would also allow her to form a connection with the nobles in the city. Not only that, since the schools are guarded by a Legend, the vicinity is extremely safe.” Ms. Damby said.
“I’ll go ahead and check the school out tomorrow,” Anders told the siblings and Ms. Damby.
When Anton saw that his father and the others were still going to continue to talk, he excused himself and told everyone that he would need to meditate, and after he went directly to his room.
He took a bath and prepared himself to kill Diablo then he would switch his druid’s build and continue with Act V.
