Chapter 501: Master Eunid Of The Diligence Family
At around the same time that Nora had been brought to this black market, another individual had also made his entrance to this place.

He was young man, around the age of twelve. he had a dignified bearing about him and his dressing was impeccable with his hair palmed from the middle to either sides of his Jet back hair.

On his fine polished black Tunic were two symbols one on the right, the cross and symbol of the Holy Church, and on the left was the Upside down sword covered in drops of blood, the symbolic crest of the Holy Church’s Seven Virtue’s family of Diligence.

Beside him was his butler, and old man with hair grey, and a humble expression, that had served the family of diligence all his life.

The young man was named Eunid, the only son and heir to the virtues family.

He was only twelve years old, but the look in his eyes was one of intelligence, easily observable not just in his temperament but also how he handled matters.

Then again, such was expected of a young man that had been forced to rule his house as a result of his father’s terrible illness. Considering that Family feuds concerning succession were never a pretty thing, it was already a miracle that he had not died by drinking poison at a family meeting or at least by an assassin in the night.

But of course, it was all as a result of the old butler by his side. He had served the family for so long by a particular name as a result of his incredible reputation that no one even remembered his name any more.

Now, they all knew him by the name HolyFang.

For those of the Family, it was Old fang.

Although he always had an expressionless reaction on his face, he more then enjoyed his company with his young master.

However, today was a very weird day indeed. And a very troublesome time for the heir of the family to be away from the Family lands. This was most especially true as a result of the kind of place this environment was.

“Master Eunid!” HolyFang called out. “I really do not advice that we come to such a place. After all, you do remember the family’s dire circumstance within the Holy church. Even if other members of the Diligence family do not take this as an opportunity to seek your head, it is still not a very good idea to walk in an unregulated Black market like this.”

However, Eunid only rolled his eyes at the old man. “You worry too much old Fang. Like I said, I saw a vision last night from the goddess Diligence, she told me to come here and the answers to our family problems hides within this place. Until now, I never even knew that the holy church has such a place hidden at the corner of the Parting Veil, but here it is. JUST as the goddess had told me in my dream.”

Eunid spoke with incredible enthusiasm.

Old fang sighed. He really could not blame his young master, after all, this was the first time he was seeing the boy smile since his father’s illness last year.

For two generations past now, things have not been easy for the Diligence Family. Even though they were one of the core families of the Holy Church, things have only gotten worse over time.

It all started some many years ago when an announcement was given by the Star readers. It stated that the Star of Diligence, a representation of the Goddess had left the star constellations under the rule of the Goddess Fate, the major god of worship of the holy Church.

According to speculations, as the Goddess Star of luck separated from Her twin sister known as Fate, The minor star, representing Diligence under the Major star representing Fate disappeared and appeared once more, a distance away under Luck.

Of course, there was more news. After all, the Holy church cupped the news as best and immediate as possible. After all, at that time, the Diligence Family had a lot of power.

However, that power that they were so proud of, that made them stand above the other families have waned significantly.

Firstly, ever since that rumor, none of their Divinations have revealed any guidance or blessing by the goddess.

As a result, the Family had in general lost a lot of favors from the Holy Church and other virtue families.

It was so bad that the only reason they had not been casted away a long time ago was because of the military power and accumulated years of resources that the family had.

These were resources that were very valuable, enough for them to wage war and although they would not win, they could still hurt the church badly.

Considering the fact that Holy Church, a proud Member of the Round table that ruled the world had too many enemies, it was best to keep such muscle under their thumb.

Of Course, there was also the fact that the newest members to joining the Holy Church about a Thousand years ago after the war with the elves, which were the Magic users had a favorable impression of the Diligence family. After all, they had supported them in those dark times.

Having the backing of Magic users, a group of people whose power origin was unknown was a great source of help.

There were many that stated that the goddess Diligence was dead and that was why the family was now suffering so much.

After all, they were now a family whose clerics and priests had no power whatsoever. They were left with borrowing from other Virtue Families for huge sum of money.

It was almost as if the other families had planned to use any method available to suppress them. They were other aspects that suffered too. After all, without the blessing of their goddess, they were bound to suffer terribly. This was true even when it came to cultivation.

However, last night, something unbelievable happened. In a Dream, young master Eunid had seen….
