“zero, turn off notification sound, just keep the rewards, only activate the favorability halo reward”

Immediately, a pop-up window appeared at the top of Shantel and Jayce's heads.

Name:Shantel slate

Gender: female

Age:45

Favorability:200 (extreme love:she can die for you)

Name: Jayce slate

Gender:male

Age:47

Favorability:197 (extreme love:stern, but we die for you if it means saving you)

The stats of Jayce and Shantel were already so high that Kim was shocked, they barely knew me for less than a day, even though i am their child, isn't this too reckless.

“Kim, you won't understand the love parents have for their children. The feeling of guilt played a major factor here. Shantel and Jayce subconsciously feel like they owe you and thus that's the reason for their high favorability"

“Kim, you have 6 sisters and 4 brothers, you are the last child so you are the fifth young master”

“your first brother is a businessman, he is drake slate, he can be quite Stony and expressionless most of the time, so don't be disappointed if he doesn't talk to you”

“your first sister is Amara slate, she is the CEO of zilligold, one of the largest clothing and makeup brands in the world, she is a workaholic, she mostly lives in the office, she took out time today cause you are coming" 

“ Your second sister is Casey slate, the world's youngest genius researcher, she lives in the lab year in, year out, don't be scared when you see her though, she is as pale as a ghost and doesn't really some common human emotions, to be blunt, she has no emotions, or perhaps she can't feel emotions or don't understand them”

“ Your second brother is Alvin slate, he is a lawyer, she has never lost any case since he became a lawyer. Your crowd of people waiting for him to defend them could circle the world twice, he is a bit judgmental though”

“ Your third brother is a writer and a musician, you should have heard of him, Jim slate, the genius writer, his books are read by royalties, and he plays the piano, He's called the Beethoven of the 21st century" 

“your third sister is Kristen slate, she is an actress, she has won the Oscars 3 times, she is also the longest reigning movie goddess, she just meant for the stage, she is also a model, a director, a violinist, a singer, she has many occupations as far as it has relationship with showbiz”

“your fourth sister is Anna Slate, military officer, she is responsible for the falcons, a Secret Service group that protects the president, she is rarely home and doesn't even inform us of her duties, l feel scared for her than others”

“your fifth sister, Paige Slate is a doctor, she is as workaholic as the rest, but she is the youngest neurosurgeon currently, she has also expressed a desire to engage in traditional medicine”

“your fourth brother, Jimin Slate is such a good chef, though he gives the rebellious student vibe, he is so loveable, though he's really annoying most of the time, he is a college school student and the only male sibling you will be seeing consistently”

“your sixth sister Rana Slate is an archaeologist and an adventurer, she finds hidden and rare things and researches in them, she is also traveling, and her cell is off most times, she and Anna are the siblings that are not around today, but they will come as soon as they get the news”

“l can't wait to meet them mom”Kim said as he noticed his mom was still planning on introducing his cousins and the entire family tree to him.

“Yes, you will meet them, Kim, if any of them misbehave, l toss them straight out of my house" 

 As they were discussing, the car drove into the airport and the private jet took off to the imperial city.

 In less than 2 hours, Kim found himself outside the gate of an enormous villa, the villa was situated at the top of a mountain and was so large, it probably covered a few districts, the design of the villa was so serene and natural, gardens were all around the villa and the peach trees swayed slightly with each breeze providing a wonderful scenery.

In comparison with this villa, the Larken's villa which Kim visited when he was five was akin to a poor man flaunting wealth, it was so gaudy and randomly covered with gold, the entire larkens house looked like a golden stone from afar, it was so ostentatious.

As Kim stepped out of the car, the two rows of servants vowed neatly towards him and his parents ''welcome back, young master Kim, mistress Shantel and master Jayce” 

“Has everything been prepared, butler Mike”Jayce asked the old man at the forefront who was dressed in a European styled suit, looking at the material alone, Kim was sure that the cloth cost a fortune “wow, even a butler is living big here''.

“Yes, master Jayce, everything has been prepared, the young masters and miss are already waiting in the dining hall”

As Kim stepped into the dinning hall, he saw a dazzling array of beauty. The four young men seated at the left-hand side of the table were all men who had been sculpted by God with delicate care. They looked similar, but their auras were different.

 The one at the forefront was a cold expressionless man who was has a tall physique, his dark colored hair was briskly combed backwards and his appearance screamed elegant, he looked like the younger version of Jayce except that he had brown colored eyes like Shan tel

The one after him, had prominent green eyes which were always smiling, his brown hair was tied into a Pony ta, he looked graceful and far more amicable than the first, but Kim felt his gentleness was an illusion, he felt a deadly threat from his brother. If in front of Alvin, he felt like all his secrets were bare.

The third man was currently cutting steak, the way he handled the knife was as if he were holding on to a delicate pen not a sharp knife, his gentleness bore deep in his bones.

Who are the ten families?" he asked, his voice tinged with confusion.Zero hesitated for a moment before responding, "It's just a letter of Visitation."Kim furrowed his brow, trying to make sense of Zero's cryptic answer.
