Chapter 111: Chapter111-Executive Meeting Room: Only I’m Allowed In!

Imperial City—

the true and only greatest city-state of humanity! 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

When the light in front of him gradually settled, Caelan finally got his first real look at the Imperial City.

Contrary to the majestic image he had imagined, the Imperial City before him looked more like a modern metropolis brimming with a futuristic technological feel!

Countless skyscrapers rose into the sky, and streams of people moved through the broad streets.

Everyone looked hurried and busy.

Caelan even spotted airships from the gnome race. Although the gnomes had gone extinct who knew how many ages ago, humanity seemed to have reverse-engineered gnome technology.

Besides that, there were large numbers of steam locomotives, airships, hot-air balloons...

In short, compared with a remote place like Mylanne City, the Imperial City truly lived up to its name as humanity’s most developed city-state!

"My dear cousin, this is the headquarters of the Supreme Staff Legion. I heard you had some friction with them before, but in the Imperial City, you should still keep your temper in check, okay?"

As Klein spoke, he glanced at Mephisto beside him.

Mephisto coughed lightly, then joined in with an introduction.

"Cousin, that over there is the headquarters of the Stonebrawn Legion. As one of humanity’s top battle legions, they’re basically a bunch of muscleheads with brains full of nothing but muscles. Unless necessary, you can just ignore them."

"In any case, the Imperial City gathers the very best talents of all humanity! And the headquarters of those major battle legions are all located here as well."

"Besides being the seat of the royal family, the Imperial City is also the core place our humanity must protect above all else."

Caelan said nothing. Sitting in the car, he simply let his gaze sweep across the scenery around him.

He had to admit—the sheer size of the Imperial City far exceeded his imagination.

Compared with the Imperial City, Mylanne City really did feel more like the countryside.

Unbelievable. Just a single headquarters could occupy such a vast area, almost equivalent to half of Mylanne City.

The Supreme Staff Legion’s strength was clearly not as fragile as it looked on the surface.

And that Stonebrawn Legion—even if their brains weren’t exactly impressive, the area of their headquarters was no less formidable.

Just then, Klein suddenly pointed at a distant cluster of buildings and said proudly,

"Although the Supreme Staff Legion and Stonebrawn Legion are both very powerful, they’re still a step behind our Ironclad Legion."

"That over there is our Ironclad Legion headquarters. Tell me, isn’t it the coolest-looking one?"

Caelan smiled faintly and looked toward the location of the Ironclad Legion headquarters.

He had to admit, the architectural style of the Ironclad Legion really was grand and high-end. Even the land it occupied was noticeably larger.

But very soon, a question suddenly flashed through Caelan’s mind.

Wait... the entire Grey family shouldn’t just be the few people around me, right?

It was such a huge family, after all!

"Klein, do we have other relatives still in the Imperial City?"

Klein froze for a moment, suddenly unsure how to answer.

Meanwhile, Caelan had already noticed a few clues.

The people who came to receive him this time were actually all relatives from his father’s side, and even counting generously, there weren’t that many of them.

As for other relatives, he had barely seen any.

For a great family like the Grey family, with such a long history, this really shouldn’t have been the case.

Besides, Caelan also had a not-so-mature little thought—

he had kind of hoped to see Alyssa show up too, and even better, to hear her obediently call him "Cousin."

Just imagining a scene like that was already pretty amusing!

After a brief moment of thought, Klein took the initiative to explain.

"Actually, our family—including our in-laws, meaning your mother’s family—has been a little tied up and unable to come."

"You should know... the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. For our two great families, there are many times when we have to shoulder more."

"But please believe this—the Merlin family is also very happy about your return!"

At that moment, Talia also leaned over to Caelan’s side. She hooked an arm around his neck and whispered,

"Kid, don’t overthink it!"

"The Merlin family is also very happy to welcome you. It’s just that right now... um... they’ve run into a tiny little problem!"

"But it’s no big deal—it’ll be solved very soon, hahaha!"

In truth, while saying this, Talia’s eyes were darting around the whole time.

She wasn’t even sure whether what she was doing counted as deceiving her cousin.

But no matter what, some things still couldn’t be explained too clearly.

Just then, a small figure suddenly rushed over and hugged Caelan’s calf.

"Cousin, welcome home!"

Caelan was stunned for a moment, then looked down and saw a little bean-sized kid at his feet.

Smiling, he picked the little one up in one hand and looked toward the magnificent building complex in front of them.

Without realizing it, Caelan and the others had already arrived at the Ironclad Legion’s grounds.

And among all the buildings in the Ironclad Legion, the most iconic one was a towering smokestack that shot straight into the clouds!

Only because Caelan possessed [Eye of Insight] could he see that the giant smokestack behind the cloud layer was constantly billowing white smoke.

Clearly, the Ironclad Legion’s equipment-forging operations possessed a very mature manufacturing process.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have built such an enormous chimney.

However...

Caelan keenly noticed that the current Ironclad Legion seemed to have run into some kind of bottleneck.

Although everyone was busy, those engineer awakeners all wore deeply furrowed brows.

...

Ironclad Legion Headquarters

Inside the Executive Meeting Room on the top floor of the headquarters building—

even younger members like Klein and Mephisto did not have the authority to enter this meeting room.

And yet Caelan was the one who was kept behind.

Because the entire upper echelon of the Ironclad Legion needed to have a serious talk with him.

As for the higher-ups’ decision, neither Klein nor Mephisto felt very good about it.

But after sensing the sharp look in Daniel’s eyes, they both chose, on their own initiative, to leave the meeting room.

In the end, among the Grey family’s younger generation, only Caelan was able to step through the doors of the Executive Meeting Room.

"Wait, why though? We’ve been in the family for so many years and never had the qualifications to enter the Executive Meeting Room. So why can Cousin go in on the very day he comes back??"

Klein was clearly a little sulky, and Mephisto beside him was just as frustrated.

"Sigh, I really can’t figure it out... Is Cousin’s strength really that terrifying?"
