1 Nobles Disgrace

In this world at the age of 12 everyone opens their soul space which enables one to cultivate his strength and this space can be also used as storage. When a person dies items in his storge would be passed on to his descendant or with his dying wish it may turn into an inheritance filled with traps. The space of the soul space determines the potential to cultivate. It is mainly divided into 9 tiers from one to nine. Nine is weakest and one is strongest. Normally nobles have between 6 tier to 4 tiers.

The cultivation realm is divided as embryo soul, soul foundation, soul warrior, soul general, soul commander, soul king, soul ancestor. Each contains 9 tiers,9 is weak and 1 is strong. Alex is currently in embryo soul tier 7, normal noble children at his stage might be in embryo soul tier4.

In the main hall of the marquis zephyr family, a youth is kneeling in front of the head and elders. The head marquis Aaron zephyr is seated on the head seat in a domineering and oppressive aura of a tier 2 soul general.

One of the elders spoke "Alex zephyr, you are bestowed the city of Lux by the benevolence of the head. Be grateful to him" even though he said it as if it was an honor there was contempt in his tone.

The youth, Alex zephyr raises his head and looks at the Marquis "Thank you my lord" his tone was indifferent as if he knew it was coming. Marquis Aaron in his domineering tone commanded "Rule your city well".

The elders in the hall show their undisguised contempt in their faces with amused expressions and the assembly is dismissed. Alex exits the hall and heads towards the entrance where some people were loading the carts along with his travel crew.

The carriage has 3 months' worth of supplies along with 4000 Quintelle gold coins as starting a fund. The currency conversion is 100,000,000iron = 1,000,000bronze = 10,000silver = 100gold = 1platinum

When the knights saw him heading towards them they knelled

"Reporting to the lord Alex" said the knight commander Jeff along with his subordinates.

'10 knights at soul warrior tier 7, knight commander Jeff at soul warrior tier 3, 7 maids, Sebas, Lena, and Raffle. The non-combatants are of average soul foundation. Looks like they really want me to die huh' he thought

"Is the carriage ready?" he asked looking at the butler.

"Yes, my lord. We are ready to set off at any time" replied butler Sebas.

With a nod, he climbs up the carriage and it starts moving slowly.

'Well, this is also good I can use my knowledge to make my territory prosper and no one can question me' thought Alex

Alex was not from this world he was a normal 25-year-old worker from the earth. When on his way from work, suddenly as dark cracks appear in front of him and sucked him into it and he awakens as a 10-year-old illegitimate child of marquis Aaron in the Quintile empire. His mother died when she was giving birth to him. And was brought up in the castle by the a maid called Lena as he had no relatives outside. As he showed signs of early intelligence at the age of 10. He was accepted into the family but he was not to become the heir and can only be a vassal.

Alex has tier 7 space if worked hard he can become a soul warrior in his forties. This is why he is despised even the weakest noble children have a tier 6 space. To not become a nuisance, he was assigned the city of Lux

On the border of zephyr territory, there is a place of refuge. Nobles despise ruling these low born due to which is a haven for killers and bandits and quite a lawless place. It is the worst possible place in the zephyr territory. It is none other than the city of Lux which was assigned to Alex. Due to its poor infrastructure, it doesn't have much revenue. In short, it is not even considered a territory of the zephyr.

'At least they waived the taxes for me so I'm not even part of the family' thought Alex

After a two-day journey in the carriage, he reached his territory the city of Lux.

"Lord Alex we have arrived" said the knight commander jeff

The view is that of a gloomy city. The city walls were worn out the guard was slacking there was no inspection. The city was filled with ruffians, the people on the street their eyes were filled with despair and unwillingness. There was a worn building in the center of the city
