84 Zikel Clan (2/2)
At best they will be able to own small countries but are mainly part of a kingdom.
Time soon passed but Dean was able to find a good hint that the Zikel Clan was located south towards his current location.
This book filled with geography was now useless to Dean, placing it back into where he had gotten it, Dean looked for the 'History' section.
One book filled his needs as it was labelled 'The Great Might of the Zikel Clan', taking it out and looking at the clean pages, Dean thought that it must have been fairly recent since its release.
The book described them as a domestic clan with huge capabilities as merchants that are able to monopolize the Beast Core market.
Holding such power the power they already had now increased into a crucial part of the kingdom's jurisdiction.
They hold certain benefits by the king of the country and are able to participate in events that most nobles are unable to take part of.
An ambitious person in their youth was the person who created such a monster, Edward Zikel.
Under his talent in his skills to operate under pressure and captivating charisma, he was able to control markets with potential that eventually became monsters in their industries.
Dean was rather confused that such a a strong clan with connections with his grandfather was never mentioned.
Theoretically, his grandfather would've used this strong backing to start increasing the business in their crops yet he did not even mention a single word of it until his death.
Such news made Dean realize that he truly did not know the depths of his family but he still didn't regret throwing that book away with his family information.
If he was to travel with the teachers and reach this destination then he wouldn't mind looking through what their relationship was with his family.
A big clan actually caring about the Wilkes would cause Dean to be suspicious but it would make him entertained.
Seeing that most of the other resources were outdated and the library was already closing, Dean left to his dorm after heading to the eatery.
There was a rise in satisfaction after his meal, Dean persisted in his last day of peaceful researching before the trip and thought that he might as well look through the manuals Christian held.

In his mind it honestly didn't seem too bad.
Cultivating an aura that would make people feel trust, loyalty and awe towards a person was definitely interesting.
Or the fact that it was able to allow your mind to handle the capacity to think of scenarios with multiple outcomes that could number in the thousands was amazing.
The only flaws was that this was not a physical cultivation technique.
Even if you manage to predict a pathway to winning a match, if your body can't keep up with the plan then you'll lose.
If one was lucky enough to find a compatible technique that helps with the growth of the body then this would surely be useful.
However the use of 'trust' is very powerful if used to disguise yourself, so with enough changes to this manual, it could become a deadly technique given to an assassin.
