Episode 87 – Welcome to the Asonia family.
87. Welcome to the Asonia family.
“I’m going to the system. “Even the carriage behind us.”
Jangle-.
The coachman answered, handing her her money bag. There must be at least five gold coins in there.
“I understand.”
The wizard who received the fee moved quickly. He placed his hand on the device in front of him and channeled his magic power into it.
Wow!
Then, as the mana of the huge warp gate moved, the color of the force field changed completely. It was a mixture of silver and gold.
The carriage carrying Leon and his group went straight towards there. The horse went in first, followed by the cart.
Pazuzuzu-
Leon sensed the flow of mana surrounding him.
‘Oh, I didn’t feel anything last time.’
Leon was deeply moved.
When I used the warp gate at the beginning of the semester, I didn’t feel anything. Maybe it’s because I’ve grown so much, but now I feel something.
Rock!
The carriage completely passed the gate.
The first thing I heard was a huge noise. There were so many people that it was noisy on a different level than Elaim.
The air became cooler, and the sun set in the east.
Leon looked out the window.
An enormous castle wall filled the field of view. It was taller and thicker than imagined, and long enough to extend all the way to the horizon.
A building that fully reveals the majesty of the Latia Empire. It was the outer castle of the system.
The gate where Leon and his party came out was formed outside the outer castle.
A long line of people formed from the outer castle to the gate. At the front of the procession, in front of the castle gate, people were being inspected, and at the back, people who had crossed the gate were being added one after another.
Of course, Leon and his group’s carriage calmly took a side road and started heading toward the castle gate. It was a road used only by nobles and VIPs.
‘It feels good.’
Leon chuckled as he saw countless eyes flocking to their carriage.
It was quite enjoyable to leisurely navigate the enormous length of rope. It feels like using a free pass at an amusement park.
“But what is the name of the system? “Everyone just calls it a system.”
Leon asked a question that suddenly arose.
“It’s the same as the country’s name. “Latia.”
“Aha, is that so?”
At Esabel’s answer, the companions looked like they knew for the first time. It was a question that everyone had never thought about before.
A case where the capital of the Roman Empire seemed to be Rome. Since the names overlapped, it was just called a system.
As an aside, people on the continent do not often call it the ‘Latia Empire’, but just call it the ‘Empire’. This is because throughout its long history, the Latia Empire has maintained the only empire on the continent.
Drrr-!
The carriage ran smoothly and passed through the outer castle gate without slowing down.
There was no inspection. The guards who saw the royal family emblem immediately saluted and cleared the way.
As I crossed the gate, a wide stream spread out.
“There are districts 5 to 11 between the middle and outer cities. This is District 5. “It’s where the middle class mainly lives.”
Esabel explained as if she were a guide.
It is said that districts with higher numbers are more expensive.
Therefore, District 5 is where those who live a little among the common people gather.
The number of floors of the buildings was definitely high, the roads were clean, and the pedestrians were neat. The best central area in Elraim felt exactly like this.
Within District 5, classes were also divided, and the deeper we went, the better the situation became.
Jungseong (中城).
It was smaller than the outer castle. But the security was much stricter.
There was no inspection this time either. The guards, who seemed to Leon to be somewhat skilled, got out of the way without a word.
In fact, as long as it wore the emblem of the imperial family, there would be no inspection even if it were in front of the inner castle.
“Princess, then there are districts 2 to 4 in Jungseong?”
“That’s right. “Most nobles live here.”
In short, it was the home of the central nobles. Of course, even if you are a commoner, if you are a wealthy person, you will probably live inside District 4.
“Oh my.”
As the carriage entered the inner castle, Leon let out a soft exclamation.
Indeed, the atmosphere here was completely different from the outside.
State-of-the-art buildings that are not crowded together, but are spaced out wide apart to allow room for space.
Street trees, flower beds, parks, sculptures, gardens, ponds… Beautiful and elegant landscaping.
There were cleaning golems wandering around the streets, cleaning up dirt and trash.
Signs floating in the air, music playing softly, and luxurious lighting that shines brightly even in broad daylight.
It was a spectacular sight where the imperial magic engineering was reflected in a beautiful European-style city.
“I never thought it would be like this. “That’s amazing.”
“······? “You came to the Emperor’s Birthday Banquet last year, right?”
“Ah, it means it’s cool to see it again.”
Leon hastily responded to the strange looks from his companions.
Anyway, they kept moving.
Through District 4, District 3, and District 2. It was the area closest to the inner city.
In no time, they arrived in front of a magnificent mansion in District 2.
“Instructor, are you here?”
“Yes.”
Answering, Cheren placed her hand on the brooch on her collar and infused it with her mana.
Kkii Iik-.
Then the iron door at the entrance began to open on its own. It seemed to be a brooch that served as a kind of ID card.
“······.”
Arya looked briefly at the brooch and then at the doorway with interest.
Drrr-!
Sculptures with swords thrust into the sky filled both sides of the road, and swordsmen with swords walked along the shoulder of the road.
The carriage crossed the large yard and headed toward the main building in front. It was magnificent. The main building was so grand that it could be considered a palace.
Cheren quietly recited to Leon with her arms crossed.
“Welcome to the Asonia family.”
* · * *
Asonia family mansion main building, first floor hall.
“Welcome to our family.”
Count Philtron, the head of the Asonia family, came out in person to greet the group.
“We will do our best to ensure that you do not experience any inconvenience during your stay.”
He was blunt and stiff. In case anyone thought they were father and daughter, it was a man who looked exactly like Cheren.
Also, as the head of a master swordsman, he exuded prayer like a well-forged sword.
‘If two people fight, who will win?’
Leon glanced at Lehman and Philtron and briefly had a childish thought.
“To guide the guests.”
“Yes, matriarch.”
Piltron gave instructions to Cheren.
“Okay then.”
Phil Tron placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, bowed his head slightly, and then stepped back. It was one of the greeting methods used by warriors to show courtesy.
“This way.”
Togak, ttogak, ttogak-!
The group followed Cheren and headed to the guest room, where they would stay.

After going up to the second floor along the central staircase in the hall, I entered the hallway on the left.
“But, will the princess stay here too?”
Leon asked Essabel with an expression that asked why he kept following me.
Since she is a princess, she was originally supposed to be living in the imperial palace in District 1. They are asking why she eats and sleeps in someone else’s house, leaving her perfectly fine home alone.
“······.”
Are you starting a fight now?
Essa Belle pursed her lips for a moment at her absurdity.
“······Ha, no, it’s my heart? “It’s annoying to go back and forth, but it’s easier to gather together as much as possible, right?”
There were many other reasons. I would like to take this opportunity to see the Asonia family, famous for its swordsmanship, but it would be more inconvenient to enter the imperial palace…
······They say I have to stay here so I can be comfortably next to Leon.
“Hmm.”
Leon shook his head. In fact, he too could have stayed at the Crucip family’s villa, but he came along for similar reasons as Essa Bell.
Ttogak-!
Cheren’s feet stopped.
“You can use the rooms over here.”
Maids were waiting in front of the doors lined up on both sides of the hallway.
“And this is the ID card used to go back and forth between families. “It also represents the most distinguished guest, so if you carry it with you, there will be no inconvenience within the family.”
Cheren handed out golden badges with the Asonia family symbol engraved on them to her group.
“If you have any requests or questions, please tell the users. Well then, let’s meet again later.”
As Cheren left, her group each chose a room one by one.
Leon chose the room closest to the entrance to the hallway. Aria went into the room next to her and Celia went into the room across from her.
Snap!
“······.”
Leon opened the door and took a quick look inside.
“Good.”
It was spacious, luxurious, and luxurious. It was better than the dorm room I used at El Prime.
“Master. “Is there something you would like to order?”
The maid who followed lowered her head and asked.
“Where is the training ground here?”
Leon prepared to leave immediately. He didn’t even take a break or unpack. The only time he returned to his residence was to wash and sleep.
“W, the training hall?”
The maid was taken aback when she saw Leon trying to leave the room without even taking a single step.
“Okay, then come here…”
“Guidance is fine, just show me the way.”
“······Go straight this way and then go down…”
* · * *
In a moment.
Leon arrived at the Asonia family’s training hall.
“Who is this bastard saying such mean things to?”
“Do you want to die?”
“f*ck, what are you?”
“hahahaha.”
I got into a fight with a group of prosecutors.
