Kapitel 70: Chapter 70

"Might I ask, what the reason was for the secrecy?" Vala asks, the first she's spoken in a while, and the Noble appears to have missed the presence of the two identical demons.

"The family faces hostile takeover, looking to claim our title by marrying off the next generation into their families. At level 5 and so young they can't do much to fight back, so we sent them to a safe place to get stronger. As long as they make level 30 before they return they should be fine. The nobles don't exactly grind levels in the dungeons or on the front lines."

They talk about noble politics while they walk and Cain learns a lot about the inner working of the city. Only a few titled families live in town, including those two, and everyone else wants a piece of the benefits granted to them. All fighting for wealth and power, but limited by their lack of title, as their families are many generations removed from the titled beginnings they trace their nobility to.
