”Don't tell me he didn't tell you anything about himself?”

Ivan nodded his head. His mentor had truly never told him anything about himself. Even his relationship with Lara, was only known to him because of the circumstances.

”That's so typical of him.”, Jenny said angrily. ”Well, whatever now that you are here, I will make sure to introduce you the family.”

They had reached the living room and saw that there were already a few people seated on the comfortable looking couches. Besides his mentor there was another woman, who had her head leaned on his shoulder. The place on the other side was free and after telling him to find a seat Jenny sat down there.

Besides them there was an older pair Ivan didn't know, but which had an aura of oppressive might around them. Then there was another person he had already met, which was Miranda van Berg, the mother of Lara. Besides her sat an elegant man, who had an aura around him, which was different from the older pair. Theirs was one that would make one feel oppression, while his made on want to obey his orders. Ivan named this aura 'Ruler Aura', for himself. Looking at his closeness with Miranda, he could make the educated guess that this should be her husband and Lara's father.

After he sat down besides another young man, his mentor greeted him.

”You are here.”, he then introduced him to the others, ”This is my student Ivan and I'm sure you have seen him during the tournament.”

Everyone else greeted him too.

”I'm sorry about the drawings during the tournament. With your strength you could have easily been the second place.”, the older woman said, to which Ivan helplessly answered, ”My luck just wasn't good enough this time.”

His mentor then pointed at the black chest, ”How did you get this thing? I know that you don't have enough money to buy a Storage Chest.”

”This is called Storage Chest?”

”Yes, it is an expensive magical tool, that can be used to store things. Inside of it there is a separate space, so you can store much more in it than one would think, looking at it from the outside.”

”Someone gave it to me and said it was a gift from Miss. Tang.”

”Little Lin gave it to you?”,Jenny asked with a shocked look.

”Yes.”

”Do you know what's inside?”

”No, I hadn't had the time to open it yet.”

”Then do it now. I'm really interested in what this little girl has given as the first gift to anyone outside her family.”

Now it was Ivan's turn look shocked, ”You are saying, that she hasn't gifted anyone outside of her family anything before?”

Jenny nodded, ”As far as I know yes. This girl has a cold character and as long as she thinks someone isn't worthy she won't have any interaction with them. And in her eyes just about everyone is unworthy. That's why I was so surprised when she gifted you something.”
