[Path Selection]
[Explanation: For a better future Host need to decide the path which the host will follow]
[Reward: ????]
As Alton saw these notification he was surprised and said in his mind “System why is the reward not available.”
“The reward will be given according to the Host decision.” The system answered
Alton asked in his mind “So if I choose a harder path will the system help me in achieving it.”
System answered “Affirmative the system main function is to make the Host powerful and if the host want to become powerful the system will help the host but the task will also be harder.”
Alton knew that he had a system on his side which will help him so he will achieve something which no one has been able to achieve in the Empire history so deciding this Alton said in his mind “System I have made my decision I am going to walk both paths”

As Alton read these he smiled he didn’t know what this meant but he knew this will help him in future.
As Alton came back to senses he saw that all the eyes were on him and he remembered that Noah was asking him about path “Sorry Brother Noah I was lost in thought what were you saying?”
Noah smiled and said “I was asking what path you were going to take?” Alton smiled and answered “I will be taking knight path as I don’t have magic aptitude.” Alton decided to hide this from Troy family and only let his close people know about his double path.
Noah nodded and said “Good if you need any help in future you can ask me.” Alton nodded and answered “I will.” Ava then said “Alton as we are same age you can also ask me for help if you.”
Lucas and Sophia were happy that there children were willing to help Alton on their own free will. A smile could also be seen on Maria as she was happy for Alton making some good friends. Sophia turned towards Maria and said “Maria how about I help you with your training.”
Maris knew about what Sophia was saying so she immediately agreed as who better person to learn from a countess so she answered “I will take you up on your offer Countess.” Ava then said “As you both need to shop so how about brother Noah and I guide you to shops so you can get familiar with the area.”
Lucas, Sophia and Noah nodded saying “This is a good Idea.” Alton and Maria also agreed as it would help them get familiar with the area and they knew that they could not reject it.
After finishing the tea Alton, Maria, Ava and Noah left the mansion on carriage to go to town with their servants. Noah and Ava guided them around the town and told them which thing was where as they reached the boutique they entered it and were greeted by a man.
The man identified Ava and Noah as they were children of Count and also there regular guest and as they were showing respect to Alton and Maria he greeted them with respect.
“Welcome Young Master and Young Miss.” The man said with a smile
Noah nodded and said “Alton and Sister Maria his name is Ren and he is the shop Owner and host so if you want to buy clothes just come to here as this is best shop here.” Alton and Maria nodded and then Noah said to Ren “Ren they are our guests from Teren Territory Alton Von Teren and Miss Maria Von Teren.”
Ren hearing their names understood that they were not any hillbilly but were the children of Teren Territory Lord so he said “Nice to meet you.”
Alton nodded and answered “Nice to meet you too.”
Ren then asked “So how may I help you today?” Ava answered “Where is Margaret we need to buy male and female clothes for guests.”
Ren answered “She is in the back just give me a minute.” Ren then pointed to the Sofa in the shop for Alton and other to sit and he went in the room and then after three minutes came back with a women and the women introduced herself “Nice to meet you my name is Margaret and I am the hostess of this shop.”
Alton and other nodded to this and then Ava said “Margaret how are you?”
Margaret with a smile on her face answered “Young Miss I am fine thank you how are you I haven’t see you for some time.”
Ava nodded and answered “I came here last month so it has been some time so do you have any new catalog we need to buy the clothes for our guests here.”
Margaret looked at Alton and Maria and then took out two catalogs and gave it to them while saying “These are some new arrivals which will suits these two.”
Alton and Maria looked at their respective catalog with Noah and Ava and Maria was a bit hesitant at the start seeing the price and she looked at Alton and he returned a smile to her so she decided on some dresses for normal days and Alton had also decided what to buy.
As Margaret noted down the order Alton asked “Do you have any kind of clothes which can be used while working out.” Margaret nodded to this and answered “We do have these clothes do you want them to be added to your order as well.”
Alton nodded and then said “One for male and three for females keep the measurements standard so that they can be worn by anyone.” Margaret asked with a smile “How about you get them enchanted that way they can get automatically altered to the wearer size.”
Alton thought about this for a bit and then answered “Ok do that.” Maria, Noah and Ava were looking at Alton because they were confused why Alton was asking for three female sets one should be enough for Maria. Alton looked towards Maria and smiled without saying anything and she understood what he meant.
Ren made the bill and brought it to Alton as he had made of the orders but at this Noah tried to catch it before Alton got it as he was instructed by his father to not let Alton and Maria pay for anything but he was late and it was already in Alton hand.
Alton understood Noah attempt and said “Brother Noah as these are our things I cannot let you pay for it, No problem Father had given me some money before we left.”
Noah nodded and stayed silent as he understood that Alton was not going to let him pay. Alton looked at the bill and then took out a black card and handed it to the Ren. Ren took the card and touched it with a box and then a voice came out of box “Payment Accepted.”
Ren with a smile on his face returned the card to Alton and then Margaret asked “Where do you want them delivered.” Maria asked “How long are they going to take?”
Margaret answered “They should be done in a week.” Maria looked at Alton and said “We don’t have they address to our house yet what should we do?”
Hearing this Noah answered “No problem Margaret I will send you the address before the delivery date.” Margaret nodded and then Alton and the other got out of the shops. As they got out Ava said “How about I take you guys to the cafe which is famous here.”
Noah also agreed to this so Alton and Maria also agreed to this and then they started walking towards the café as it was near. As they all entered the café and settled at a table Maria and Alton both were a bit un comfortable because the first one had never done this before and the other was a person who always stayed in his room.
As they ordered and were waiting for the food to be served a voice coming from the background caught there attention “Nice to meet you Master Noah, Miss Ana long time no see.”
The smile on Noah and Ana face disappeared as they saw this person, and this didn’t go unnoticed by Alton and Maria. The person started started walking towards their table and Ana replied to him in cold voice “The feeling is not mutual Mr Capell.” As Alton and Maria looked towards the voice, they saw a person around Noah age with an average body who was not fat but also not fit standing there with red hair and blue eyes.The person with a smile on his face said “Miss Ana you can call me Henry rather than by my family name aren’t our families close to each other” Ana stayed silent not saying anything else, not receiving any answer the man looked at the Alton and Maria and asked in a commanding tone “Who might you two be I have not seen you here.”Alton and Maria stayed silent so this got on his nerves so he asked again “I am asking who you might be you are not from any noble family around here so shouldn’t you greet a viscount son after seeing him.” Noah and Ana didn’t jump in remember
Henry guard moved henry behind him and then Alton looked at his sister who was standing there with a angry face and ready to explode seeing this Alton said “Sister don’t kill them we don’t want to make things hard for Count.”Maria face turned into one with cute smile while saying “Anything for my little brother.” Finishing her words Maria expression turned back to angry one and she took two steps in front and moving her right hand in air she used the same trick which the guard had used but something was different the temperature of the room was decreasing at a fast rate. The guard made a shield appear but the pressure and coldness was so striking that it shattered in seconds and both the guard and Henry were brought to their knees while shivering with cold as part of their body was getting covered in ice.All the people now understand Ana and Alton’s words as Maria didn’t even have change in expression on her face this just showed how easy it was and this wasn’t even her full power.
Theodore also looked at her carefully and then noticed that lucy was right Maria is at the same level as him. Jake looked at the women and said “Sister you sure she looks around the same age as you.” Lucy nodded and said “They both must belong to a big family we should not have a fight with them as you can see that even maids are Mages and both young master Noah and young Miss Ana are just standing at side I will try and solve this problem.”Lucy moved forwards and said “Miss my name is Lucy Capbell, I am sorry about my brothers can you forgive them and let this matter be.”Maria smiled seeing her “So Capbell family has people with brains as well, Oh! you are also a mage.” Lucy nodded so Maria continued “how old are you?”. Theodore was angry at the girl bad mouthing Capbell family but he stayed silent when remembering Maria level.Lucy looked at her and answered “I am twenty-four.” Maria nodded and smiled at her “You are already a second star Elementary Mage.” Maria got up from her ch
[Kindly Read the Author Note] All of them nodded as they knew what he had gone through the day so they bid him goodnight and then he went back to the guest room. Entering the room he turned on the light and then sat down on the bed and said under his breath “System.”The next second a black screen appeared in front of his eyes so he looked at the status closelyName: Alton Von TerenAge: 15 yearsRace: HumanTerritory: TerenOccupation: NoneRank: NoneLevel: 02SP: 5Coins: 10Experience: 00 / 1000Health: 08 / 10Mana: 8/8Strength: 8Agility: 5Stamina: 3Vitality: 10Intelligence: 17Skills: NoneAlton was shocked to find that his health had dropped by two points which showed how weak he was that he was able to get hurt from just that much but he moved his eyes towards the bar at top of the window which at the start only contained Stat Page and Mission button but now there was another button named Inventory.Alton smiled and clicked on the inventory button and the page changed the
It was the coldest night of the year that day, and the clouds were covering the sky, the rain was falling, and the location was a barren land; aside from two people around fifty meters away from each other, no one was in sight. One of the men was on his knees and was half dead; the blood was coming out of the cuts on his body, and all of his clothes were red because of this. His eyes showed despair, and it looked like he had given up on everything.The man asked in a voice full of despair, "Why are you trying to kill me when I don't have anything, and I am not even a threat to anyone, so Why?"The other man was standing. "Don't blame yourself but your blood; if you were not the earl's son, you would not have to face this, Alton." The man was wearing a cape and mask to hide his identity."Who are you? Why are you doing this?" asked Alton."Well, it doesn't matter if you know who I am because you won't be able to tell anyone." Said the man and then took off his cape and mask and slowly

Alton then asked "Where are you?" The reply came directly to his brain "I am in your soul and only you can hear me and only you can see the screen."Alton's confused face changed hearing this, and he asked, " You can talk? how?""Yes host I can talk. the user doesn't have enough privilege for the inform
As food entered Alton's mouth, he could feel the texture and taste it brought and some bitter memories of his past life when he was left all alone, and he could not taste this food again.Alton started eating the food without looking up from the plate. Maria was shocked because the young master she remembered would always push the food back after taking a single bite and always bad-mouth the chef. Maria looked at Alton with questioning eyes, and she felt that something had changed, but she could not put her finger on it.Maria unconsciously mumbled in a low voice, "Something is changing."This sound caught Alton's attention, and he looked at her and asked, "Did you say anything?"Maria denied it by moving her head left and right. Alton looked at her for a second but started stuffing the food again. Alton finished his breakfast fast, and now he was full.After finishing the breakfast, Alton once again around the room and saw that the room had a single, double bed in the middle, a bathr
As Alton walked towards the earl's study, multiple maids and servants were doing their regular chores, and seeing him, they bowed, but that was just because he was the earl's son, not because they were respectful of him because Alton's current reputation was of a spoiled brat who was loved and cared by his parents.Alton looked at them and understood the looks of disdain and anger because the lord they all loved had such an unworthy son as his only child.Alton smiled but kept walking in silence, stopped in front of a window, and looked outside of the window. This territory's name is Teren; it belonged to the Alzonian Empire from the start Teren family ruled this land and helped in the making of the Alzonian Empire and were thus granted the title of Duke by the king of that time, but as the time progressed the Teren family met its demise and was thus relegated to the rank of Count.The head of the family is Aldwin Von Teren, and the current countess of the Aria Von Teren was Alton's p
