A SHORT DISPLAY OF POWER

As Morris and Ethan stepped into the grand family hall of the Grey residence, they were greeted by the sight of his father, Lord Grey, seated in deep discussion with his elder brother, Drake Grey. His mother, Lady Grey, sat elegantly nearby, listening attentively and Uncle Kang standing right behind Lord Grey. The atmosphere was one of gravity, their conversation clearly of importance. However, the moment Morris entered, the air shifted.

Drake's eyes landed on his younger brother, narrowing with irritation. His once intense conversation with their father was now disrupted by Morris's unexpected appearance.

"Well, well, if it isn't the family's 'untapped potential,'" Drake sneered, crossing his arms as he leaned back in his chair. "What are you doing here, Morris? Come to listen in on matters way beyond your understanding? Or is it just to fill the hall with your presence? You know, it must be exhausting, carrying all that mana and not being able to use it."
