6 days ago.....

Ria stood in her room alone with a horrified expression and an old blond lady with expensive cloaths stood in front of her.

"Ria what happened with your face, I heard about the rumors, are they true?" The blond lady suddenly spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"...Yes lady Abigail," Ria replied.

Abigail suddenly covered her mouth.

"OMG.....Ria, do you know who they could have been?"

"No, but they told me it was your son who hired them," Ria told her in a hesitant tone.

Ria saw Abigail suddenly burst out with anger, as she released her energy, Ria was getting suffocated as she found it hard to breathe.

"You bitch are you trying to place the blame of you getting raped on my precious son, you are exactly like your whore mot...." As if Abigail realized what she was saying she stopped.

"I am so....rry," Ria muttered

"I should be the one saying sorry, I suddenly attacked you without any reasonable evidence," Abigail said as she tried her best to fix the situation.

"No worries, lady Ria, any mother would attack, if her son was mentioned like that," Ria said with a smile, and a harmless expression but inside her mind was an evil smirk as she looked at a small rock on the table.

'Seem like this girl is really idiotic she believes my words, she should have died with her parents so that my son could become the heir of the Felix clan, I need to somehow get rid of her, I can't kill her until he is alive' Abigail thought as an image of a robust man with a calm expression came into her mind.

But what Abigail hadn't realized was that she was already half a step in the grave, and the small stone on the table has clearly captured their conversation.

....

To the current day.

As Vlad listened to the conversation, he was surprised, initially at the voice recording device but this surprise shifted to Ria's scheme.

'No wonder, she didn't seem bothered that day, seem like she already knew who was responsible.' Vlad thought as he became a little alert against her.

The robust man and Ria talked for a while, as he stood up and said his final words.

"Ria... your parents gave me your responsibility, and I would never betray them, your words would have been enough for me to destroy the whole Clan. Ria, you need to understand that, never let anyone do that to you, plus I am hiring a personal bodyguard for you." The man said as he walked out of the room.

"Seems like that is done." Ria suddenly muttered.

"Now Vlad congratulations you broke through, do you have any requests," Ria asked.

"Yes, first I want a training partner to practice my martial arts with, the second I want to get a spear and a sword, and lastly I want to go out of the mansion to the city." Vlad listed his requests.

"I will inform Alice about these things she will help you plus she should give you the stuff you need to break through to the bone tempering realm, and Vlad is careful."

Vlad clearly knew she was trying to curry his favor, but he didn't mind it, he was getting a shit ton of resources for free after all.

Vlad was satisfied as he walked back to his room, he was quite hungry, he wanted to try all the cuisine in this new world, Vlad had few interests but the food was one of them, he always searched for new types of things, so Vlad was planning to visit a restaurant in his world.

Vlad ate the food provided by Alice, he was quite satisfied, as he finally laid on his bed he quickly fell into a deep sleep.
