Chapter 259: Exceptional Son-In-Law Part 2
“Open.” he raised his hand, and one of the crystal gems on the gate glowed and scanned him.

He already made the proper adjustments after taking ownership of this place, so it now recognized him.

CREAK!

Slowly the heavy gate open, revealing what was beyond this walls.

Asher led them down the wide, paved road, each step echoing slightly against the stone beneath their feet.

The mix of red and gray bricks seemed almost random, but there was a subtle pattern

On the side of the path, the garden bloomed in riotous colors. Some flowers looked familiar, others… not so much.

They also noticed a narrow waterway running alongside the pavement, its symmetry perfectly mirroring the road, resembling a series of small canals.

As they took a closer look, they were shocked to discover that the water itself contained magic. It was so potent that simply bathing in it could heal wounds.

The air quality was even more impressive. Just breathing here made them feel relaxed and rejuvenated.

Even the brain fog that plagued them after stressful experiences was slowly fading away.

This was the perfect place for practicing magic, where every corner hum with power.

Asher saw their reactions and could not blame them.

Eryx represented the pinnacle of magic and technology in their world, so only made sense that everything built by them would be of the utmost quality.

However, what they were seeing right now was nothing compared to the hidden rooms, accessible only to him. This place was no joke. Julius spared nothing when he built it.

The technology here was just as impressive. The runes and symbols, hidden beneath the ground and walls, acted like codes, linking everything to a control room.

From there, he could control it all from the comfort of his chair.

“Brother, can we really live here?” Lariel still hadn’t given up. She quickened her paced, walking on his left while Lucy stayed on his right.

“Yeah, for now, this place will be the safest option.”

“‘Thank you, Brother Asher,’ she exclaimed, clinging to his arm and even rubbing her cheek against it.

Lucy didn’t let his slide. Without a word, she pulled him closer to her, wrapping her arms around him too.

Asher could only sigh, letting them do as they pleased.

After a few minutes of walking, they reached the base of the castle.

The door loomed ahead, and before they could enter, they needed to climb a wide marble staircase, because the first floor was slightly elevated.

As they reached the top, a soft hum filled the air, and without a touch, the large double doors swung open in welcome.

Inside, towering white pillars stretched to the ceiling, their elegance accentuated by golden siding.

Banners also hung from them, each displaying the insignia of the moon.

Asher didn’t change anything here—he couldn’t be bothered to renovate it.

Fortunately, Julius and the other sorcerers responsible avoided the usual dark, monotonous designs that plagued the towers of Eryx.

Instead, the place ended up looking elegant and warm, leaning more toward a cathedral style.

Glowing chandeliers hung overhead, their candle-like lights casting a warm golden hue that danced across the high, domed ceiling.

At the far end of the grand hall, two majestic staircases curved upward in perfect symmetry, their marble steps polished to a mirror-like sheen.

Intricate gold-trimmed railings lined their edges, each carved with elaborate patterns .

The staircases converged at an elegant landing on the second floor, framed by towering columns and a large painting.

It depicted Julius’ face, his eyes looking down on everyone.

“Is that the previous owner?” Lariel inquired.

“Yeah, ”

“Is he powerful?” she added, curiosity getting the best of her.

Asher paused for a moment, the question a tough one.

Strength wasn’t as simple as one plus one—it depended on too many variables.

For example;

Zagan was strong because his bloodline gave him the power to overwhelm his opponents .

Julius, on the other hand, relies on magic items, technology, and towers that can enhance and sustain his power.

“Well, if he was set on killing from the get-go, he could probably take down Zagan in under five minutes.”

It was his honest opinion. Though dragons had high magic resistance, Julius could spam spells nonstop.

And when it came to large-scale magic, he was a force of nature within Eryx.

“How did you manage to kill him then?” Lucian joined.

Before Asher could even open his mouth, Lariel cut in.

“Isn’t that obvious, Father? Because my brother’s way more impressive and powerful! ”

“Right, brother!” She nudged his stomach with a teasing grin.

She was so submissive before, but the moment the danger passed, she turned into a completely different person. He was glad he did not took her offer before.

He didn’t waste time clearing things up. Instead, he led them to the second floor.

“That part leads to the bedrooms. Most rooms here have a uniform design, so you can choose whichever you like”

“Brother, where are you sleeping?”

Looking down, he answered, “In the master bedroom with Lucy, my wife.”

He flashed a friendly smile, but his words were clearly meant to set boundaries.

Lariel, reading the room, reluctantly let go of his arm. Her gaze landed on Lucy, who was grinning at her, amused by her futile attempt.

“Poor little sister. Asher’s not like other men. He’s not someone who can be swayed easily.” Lucy declared with absolute confidence in her words.

Ironically, the man in question was breaking into a cold sweat, remembering the number of times he touched other women.

He wondered if she could forgive him if he told her about Lucia and Lizana, but when he saw how sure she was that he would never cheat, he quickly decided to keep his mouth shut—some things were better left unsaid.

Besides, who would even rat him out? It’s not like those two had the ability to chase him all the way here.

‘What happens in another world stays in that world.’
