Valerio. The Fellowes' family has been in trouble for a very long time. As a core member of the family, Valerio certainly knows this. Not only the core members, but anyone who had a little bit of authority in the family would also be aware of their situation. Because of that, so what?
They were facing oppression from the Palmore family, the top power in the Star Kingdom. Over the years, the Fellowes tried everything, but to no avail. They share more wealth each year. It's the same when it comes to weddings.
As long as the Palmore family uttered the word, the Fellowes family had to send their female direct descendants to marry regardless of whether the other party was flawed or stupid. What happened in the end?
The Palmore family is still greedy.
They wanted to control the Treasure Trove, and make it a dairy cow. The Fellowes' family was utterly desperate to face that greedy and ungrateful side. The Fellowes' family could not solve this problem unless there was a miracle that allowed the family's grandmaster to become a Sacred Saint. Now, Alba says she can finish it.
Is that possible?
To be honest, even if he saw Alba grow up and he knew that he would not lie, Valerio still hesitated. This was because no one other than a Sacred Saint could help the family out of this predicament.
Meanwhile, there were only a few Sacred Saints in the Star Kingdom, so Alba would never have the chance to contact one of them.
“Alba, stop joking. We can't fight a family like the Palmore family. Now, the only hope of the family is that once you get married to Anders, you can harness your strengths to become the core of the Palmore family to make them stop devouring us. We'd be happy if we got the same treatment as the Lightfoot family." Valerio sighed.
Alba was agitated after hearing what Valerio said. She did not want to be hated by both parties after she married into the Palmore family and became homeless.
Although Alba was confident, she had seen Anders once. He knows he is a man who does not value relationships. He only appreciates interest and strength. As for women, they were useless to him. After just one meeting, Alba knew she could not conquer this man.
“Grandfather Val, even if I marry him, the Palmore family won't leave us alone. They're very ambitious and Anders won't let our family because of me. If we don't think of a way to save ourselves, we can only give them the Treasure Trove. Without Treasure Trove, it would be almost impossible for us to return. However, even if we let them have the Treasure Trove, they still will not leave us alone. After all, no one wanted any hidden dangers" Alba said frantically.
“Saving ourselves? We want to do it too, but it's not easy! It's been years and we haven't found a chance. If there's hope, we won't put you in this situation" Valerio said, feeling helpless.
The Fellowes thought of all they could. However, there are only two possible solutions. One, they could turn a family grandmaster into a Sacred Saint. Two, the grandmaster Sacred Saint of the Palmore family died suddenly.
If the Palmore family could not even save themselves, they would not have the manpower to care about the Fellowes family. If any of those things happened, it would be a shocking miracle! That's almost impossible.
“Grandfather Val, since you trust me, please give me a chance! I really saw a glimpse of hope this time. I want to help the family escape the control of the Palmore family and change my fate.” continued Alba.
He knew he had to convince Valerio. If not, everything will be in vain. As long as he gets Valerio's help, Alba can then continue working with David and get the approval of David and his teacher.
"Alba, do you know what you're saying?" Valerio suddenly asked seriously.
"I know!" Alba replied firmly.
"You said you were serious?"
"Of course!"
"Do you know what kind of family the Palmores are?"
"of course! They were one of the top six powers in the Star Kingdom with a Sacred Saint. If we want to get out of their control, we have to get a Sacred Saint to help us."
"Since you know this, do you still think you have hope?"
"I have it!" Alba replied without hesitation.
Valerio stopped talking. He started steadily in Alba. He wanted to read Alba's face. However, Alba looked very determined, as if she really had a way to help the family out of this predicament.
To be honest, Valerio still did not believe what Alba had said until now. As he said, they needed a Sacred Saint behind them if they wanted to get out of the Palmore family's control.
There was a Sacred Saint who was known to be limited in the Star Kingdom, so no one was willing to help the Fellowes family and offend the Palmore family. However, Valerio is willing to give Alba a chance. At the same time, he also wanted to give a glimpse of hope to the Fellowes family even though it was almost non-existent.
"Do you really see hope?" Valerio asked.
“Yes, Grandpa Val! This is the only hope I have seen after all these years. I want to bet." replied Alba.
"alright. Alba, since you are so determined, then I will not hold you back. I will give you this opportunity regardless of whether you succeed or not. Just do it bravely. I will talk to the head of the family for you even if I have to risk my pride.”
Valerio made the final decision. In the end, he chose to trust Alba. After all, he saw her growing up, so he thought he would not make the wrong decision. Even if he was wrong, he was able to bear the consequences. If the bad ones got worse, he would just hand over the Treasure Trove.
"Thank you, Val! Thank you!" Alba was crying because she was happy.
He knew Grandpa Val would support him. He's been really nice to her since she was a kid.
“Alba, although I promise to help you and not punish you, I have to remind you something.” Valerio said.
“What is it? I'll listen." Alba re-composed herself and replied.
“You have a fiancee, and big families like the Palmore family really appreciate their prestige. You should stay away from men in the future and not be alone with them. If word gets out and the Palmore family finds out, the consequences will be serious.”
After Valerio said that, Alba immediately understood. The senior families find out about his arrival back on the same ship as David and then take him around the Treasure Trove headquarters. Alba ignored this.
After David easily killed the two novice Sovereign Rankers next to Cornelius, Alba confirmed David's identity in his heart. He was very young and very strong, therefore, only a Sacred Saint could cultivate someone like him.
Back then, he just wanted to get on his good side so that he could get the help of David and his master in the future. That was why he did not pay attention to these small details. He did not expect this to reach the ears of the seniors, causing them to make a big fuss over a small matter.
Since Valerio had mentioned it while representing the senior of the family, Alba would pay more attention to this in the future. Otherwise, he would be cursed if he would be punished for it.
“Grandfather Val, I understand. I'll pay more attention and not get you in trouble" Alba said.
"alright. It's good if you understand. All right, do your big thing if there's nothing else. I'll wait for your good news" Valerio said with a smile.
His last sentence was obviously a joke, but according to Alba he was serious.
“Grandfather Val, don't worry, I won't let you down! You will thank yourself for your decision today! The whole family of Fellowes will thank you!”
Alba came out of Valerio's study and took a deep breath. He can't back down now. Anders will be out and David is his only hope. He must help David complete his master's task as quickly as possible. That way, he could ask David to get his master.
He could only speak to a Sacred Saint as soon as he saw her. If he couldn't even see her, how would he ask her to help him?
However, he also had to keep his distance from David from now on. He finally convinced Grandpa Val to help him, so he couldn't let the senior of the family look for faults on him. It would be difficult for Grandpa Val to explain himself if that happened as well.
David is set to stay in a very luxurious room. Immediately…
Tok tok!
Someone knocked on the door.
"Who's out there?" ask David as usual.
“Mr David, it's me." Mick's voice came from the door.
David opened the door. Mick stood outside with a red envelope in his hand.
“Master David, this is the invitation card for the Treasure Trove headquarters auction within a week. When the time comes, you can enter the venue with this.”
When Mick says that, he hands the red envelope to David. David's eyes sparkled when he heard that. He finally got an invitation to the auction. This is awesome! With this, he could soon become a Saint partial!
"Thank you, Old Master!" David thanked me sincerely after getting the invitation.
Anyone who stopped him to increase his strength would become his enemy. Instead, whoever helped him was his friend.
“Mr David, you're too good. Miss Alba told me to do this so you should thank her. I'm just a messenger."
“Old Master, no matter what happens, you help me a lot. If you need something in the future, just ask me. I would never say no as long as it was in my power.
“Not needed! You're too good. If there's nothing else, I'll go. Just call me if you need anything. ”
“I'm fine here, so I don't need anything. Thank you, Old Master.”
“This is my job. Goodbye, Mr. David.”
“See you, Old Master.”
Mick's gone. She thought David was just trying to find a way to get into a relationship with her so she could ask about Miss Alba. He had not realized what he was rejecting. It was the promise of a Sacred Saint or higher in the future. One day, Mick will be very sorry. He has a chance to curry favor with David, but he refuses!
David returned to the room with a red envelope. After he opened it, he saw a gold card inside. The contents of the card are very simple. No words, just the Treasure Trove logo. David touched the gold card. It feels smooth, soft, and pleasant to the touch. It should be made of some precious metal.
It was almost like gold on Earth, but it was definitely worth more than that. Treasure Trove is great. Even the invitation cards are very fancy. The cost of making these small cards might be the same as the wages a normal person would earn over a lifetime. This is top class. It is hard for normal people to understand.
After putting the card back in the envelope, David felt very happy to have gotten the invitation card. With that, he could enter the auction house legally and honorably a week later.
David saw the system.
[Host: David Lidell

If he wanted to become a partial Saint, he would have to raise his Mind and Body to a level 10 Sovereign at the same time. He still needed 14000 luxury points and he still had 920 luxury points left from last time. Which meant he really needed 13080 luxury points.
David would need to spend more than 1.3 trillion at auction a week later. Saint partial is very close. According to David's understanding, the large auction held by Treasure Trove this time around would have many treasures. So, the price will not be low. It would be easy to spend trillions.
David's waiting for the auction. After Alba left Valerio's study, he didn't go to David. He had to keep his distance from David. Otherwise, the seniors of his family would punish him if they found out. Valerio wouldn't be able to help him if that happened. When he returned to his room, Alba contacted Elmer and asked him to immediately establish a trading company.
Mr. Anders Palmore is coming out. As soon as he came out, Alba would be in the spotlight because she was his fiancee. He may even marry into his family soon. It would be difficult for him to do anything if that happened. Therefore, things became very urgent now. Alba must deliver on his promise to David as soon as possible.
He had originally planned to only think about this after the auction, but it seemed like he could not put it off anymore. Alba asks David how he will name the new trading company so he can register the company.
David had no qualms about calling it the East League Trading Company.
He has been using this name since he was on Earth, and he thinks it's pretty good. At the same time, it was very beneficial to David and helped his strength skyrocket along the way. So he decided not to change it.
Just like that, the East League Trading Company was born in a large trading zone in the West End of the Central Sacred Continent.
Countless trading companies were established across the continent every day, and at the same time, there were also many of them who went bankrupt due to poor management.
