Chapter 17: We Should Greet Them
"Hey, Eileen... Aren't you curious about someone who actually reserved the entire seventh floor?" After they were satisfied with the extraordinary, luxurious, and classy dishes on the seventh floor of the 'Heavenly Pavilion'. Rachel was intrigued by someone who wastefully reserved the entire seventh floor.
Rachel Avery is a General from Avery City who has reached the [S Rating] level. The beloved daughter of the Avery family is actually a fierce competitor to Eileen Stanford in the military. They almost compete in everything, from trivial matters to serious things.
The ridiculous rivalry relationship between the two girls changed dramatically after the huge siege that took place in Azazel City four years ago that killed their father and many of their close people. Feeling they had the same fate after the death of their father, they quickly became friends who comforted and supported each other.
Initially, all cities and every property on Mars belonged to [Axel Goddess], but people who migrated to Mars with the same status and starting from zero could collect contribution points to increase their degree of authority.
Azazel City and Stanford City are the two largest cities on Mars and were renamed after people with the last name Azazel managed to collect the biggest contribution points in the development of the city and the economy in the Northern City. Followed by a person by the last name Stanford in the Southern City who managed to get a point contribution from military development. This was followed by Avery, Elyson, Zirion, and Lynn in each of the other cities.
[Axel Goddess] at that time was focusing on supporting people with outstanding talent to develop six cities that were at the center of one-sixth of the planet in different parts. The location of this symmetrical city is intended to warn them early of a sudden threat coming from various sides of the world.
The six people from five generations before them had worked very hard to get a high degree of nobility for their successors. At present, twelve hundred years have passed since the beginning of their struggle, leaving only one person from one of their descendants who still has status in [SS Rating]. Thomas Stanford, the grandfather of Eileen became the only person with a level at [SS Rating] who survived a defensive battle in Azazel City four years ago.
"Don't bother them, Rachel... We are actually very presumptuous. Don't cause any more trouble than this!" Eileen was a little upset because she was dragged like this because of Alfred who was reckless.
Alfred Elyson is the successor son of the Elyson family. Alfred along with his two brothers in arms Ryan Zirion and Adam Lynn who have the same status as the successors of families in their respective cities, work together on various things that are mutually beneficial to their side.
Alfred, who grew up spoiled in the Elyson family who fully worked into the economy and always got what he wanted, was very different from Ryan and Adam who were educated in families who at least had a background in the military.
Although they have different goals and being together is only limited to friends who take advantage of each other, but they have one thing in common that makes them inseparable, namely flirting with girls. The three of them have an agreement that cannot be said. In fact, they are targeting the three successor women from other City Lord's families to be their wives and will help each other in this goal.
"Umm... I'm just talking... Don't mind me... Oh yeah, this is good that Austin jerk has been detained in prison by the military due to the severe sanctions he has done." Rachel felt her best friend's mood a little irritated and tried to change the subject.
"Hmph! He doesn't deserve to be a General in our rank. His death sentence is the best penance for him!" Alfred said it as if he were a court judge.
"Running away from the battlefield of the city's defenses which is under threat of destruction is an unforgivable sin! Tomorrow morning is his execution in public. No matter what the Mende family will do, Austin cannot be saved!" Ryan scoffed at the fate of a cowardly man who was said to have a degree with them.
"It has really been scheduled. The procession of mourning for the victims in this battle will be carried out afterward." Adam logically added reality.
Eileen seems a little depressed about this fact. In this cruel world, they must unite to stay safe from danger. But to make it happen is very difficult especially in the present situation where the remaining Generals are only at [S Rating].
Although all the successors of the ruling families in each city have a good relationship, their family is still considering the advantages and disadvantages of each of their actions after the tragedy in Azazel City before. The delay in reinforcements at the Stanford City defense battle some time ago became an undeniable fact, and they had no power in that area.
"Didn't Sister Evelyn come to this city?"
"She immediately returned to Azazel City after knowing that Stanford City was fine. It seems that she still has some problems in Azazel City." Eileen sighed after answering Rachel's question. Evelyn Azazel has become a big sister figure to both of them.
"Hey... The person who can wastefully reserve the entire floor is probably a great person right? Shouldn't we greet them and maintain good relations?" Feeling uncomfortable, Rachel suggested what crossed her mind. This fact makes each person in the quarter have different thoughts.
"Oh yes. That's right. We should greet them." Alfred said with a glint in his eyes, who knows what he had in mind. Meanwhile, Ryan and Adam just looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"Hmm... It looks like Uncle Darius is still with them. At least we can say hello and give our thanks." Eileen did not know what was in each man's mind and only nodded in agreement not knowing what would happen afterward.
"It seems that everyone agrees. Then let's go!" Rachel stood up and hurried out with Eileen after the three men who had other agendas in their minds left first to the middle quarter where the special guests who actually reserved the entire seventh floor were.
