Remi loved the Fluffy White Cat that Thirteen had gotten her, and she named it Fluffy.
Of course, the true owner of the Fluffy Cat was none other than Alessia. Only Wanderers could own Avatars. She merely ordered the creature to become Remi's playmate and ordered it to not harm anyone in their family.
If not for the fact that it was stronger than it looked, it might have already been squeezed to death by Remi and Shasha, who couldn't help themselves due to how soft and fluffy its fur was.
While the two girls were enjoying the company of their family's new pet, Alessia had finally begun her journey to become a Divine Alchemist.
The Fire Fox and Ice Fox were both useful for Alchemists. The former could help her light her cauldron, while the latter could augment it with its Ice Flames, depending on the situation.
Thirteen and Gerald worked together to craft a Pill-making Cauldron for Alessia, allowing her to practice without worrying about her cauldron exploding or breaking apart.
Of course, a separate crafting house was specially built for her, and it was only a hundred meters away from their home.
Thirteen knew that accidents could happen, so he deemed that, in order to lower the risk of fires, it would be best to not let his mother craft inside the house.
He had asked her to craft the most basic pill to practice her craft, which was the Stamina Pill.
Eating this pill helped restore a bit of stamina, which was very helpful in most cases.
To Thirteen's surprise, his mother had talent in Alchemy.
Out of ten attempts, she succeeded thrice, which wasn't a bad starting point for beginners.
Also, another surprise came to their family a week after the event in the Remington Clan's Main Residence.
Michael came to visit them and talked to Gerald about something.
An hour later, Mikhail went with his Uncle back to the Leventis Family to undergo real combat training against Monsters from Solterra.
Thirteen already expected that something like this would happen because, at the end of the day, Mikhail's performance during the competition earned the Leventis Family some prestige.
It didn't matter that Gerald had been kicked out of the Main Family Line.
The only thing that mattered was that Mikhail carried the Leventis Family name. Paired with the skills he displayed, that was more than enough for him to be treated as one of the prodigies of the current generation.
Every day, from morning till noon, Mikhail would go to the Leventis Main Residence to train.
Every night, he would report to Thirteen and his Father what he did during the day.
Thirteen wasn't surprised when he noticed the subtle brainwashing that Arthur and Michael were doing to Mikhail.
The two were starting to make Mikhail realize the importance of their Family Name, which held the position of one of the Ten Prestigious Families in the world.
They wanted to make sure that Mikhail would end up thinking that the only ones who would be able to support him in the future were none other than them and not his Father, who had been kicked out of the family.
They gave Mikhail the best training partners, the best resources, as well as the best supplements—all part of their plan to make his brother realize the difference between the Main Family and a Disowned Family.
Unfortunately for them, their brainwashing was several years late.
Thirteen had completely and thoroughly brainwashed his brothers and sisters to the point that even if the Monarch Clans were to personally take them under their wing, the two wouldn't bow their heads in submission.
Sure, they might be impressed and even surprised by what these families had to offer. But that was it.
In the end, that was all that they could do.
Thirteen's brainwashing was so thorough that when Gerald found out about it, he didn't know if he should laugh or cry at his son's antics.
However, Thirteen assured him that everything he was telling them was the truth.
He even declared that there would come a time when their own family would become the Main Branch of the Leventis Family, and Arthur's Family would become their branch family.
Gerald only thought that his son was simply saying these things to ensure that Mikhail and Shasha would not be swayed by the other families.
But this all changed when he managed to produce the Four Mythical Equipment.
Granted that the one that turned his crafted items into Mythical Equipment was his son, it was also at that moment when he realized the Thirteen hadn't been bluffing.
They indeed had the potential to become the Main Branch of the Leventis Family, and might even surpass the Monarch Clans in the future.
So what if the Leventis Family and Monarch Clans were richer than them?
No matter how rich they were, it was impossible for them to buy all four pieces of Mythical Equipment if they were to be auctioned to the public.
So what if they had a treasury of rare weapons, armor, and other artifacts?
Now that Gerald had picked up the hammer and taken the profession of a Blacksmith, it was only a matter of time before he consolidated his experiences and reached enlightenment.
This would allow him to not only craft Mithril and Adamantine-
Grade Equipment but also gears above those Grades as well.
Even without his son's help, he believed that he would be able to craft his Mythical-Grade Gear as he got more used to his Profession.
It may not happen tomorrow, in a week, a year, or five years from now, but without a doubt, Gerald was certain that he would reach that point.
And after he crafted a Mythical Equipment, he would aim for Legendary Gear, and after that Divine.
Once the time came when he succeeded in crafting Mythical Equipment without Zion's assistance, Gerald could just place a plaque in front of their family gate that says "Leventis Family Main Residence", and no one would dare to correct it.
Dare to annoy the Blacksmith that was able to craft Mythical Grade Equipment?
Simply courting death!
Thirteen also stated that the Leventis Family would offer them support in the future, and when that happened, they should just accept it.
Since they were their Vassals, it was only normal for them to serve their Masters.
Soon, Thirteen's entire family no longer thought of the Leventis Main Family as some kind of big shot.
In their minds, they were the Main Family, and Arthur's Family was only there to make them look good.
Of course, if Thirteen's Grandpa were to know that his no-good grandson had brainwashed his family into thinking of him as their servant, he would have definitely strangled the boy and whipped him a thousand times until he repented.
Unfortunately for him, he didn't know and would continue to remain oblivious to the fact that his Family was already the Branch Family in his no-good grandson's eyes.
Gerald was now on the same page as Thirteen.
Since he had already been disowned, he would make his family the True Main Family of the Leventis Clan. And once that happened, his laughter would be heard not only in the continent of Aldebaran but the entirety of Pangea as well.
