Legends said that the manor was built during the country‘s rise for Flutwell‘s first–in–command.
For almost a hundred years, the manors here had been constantly torn apart and rebuilt, leaving only ten properties around the place.
The owners of the manors were no small feat, either.
They were either previous first–in–commands of Flutwell, or they had contributed to the city‘s development immensely.
People without such achievements would have no right to live in these houses.
Harvey didn‘t care much about the place, but he still understood its importance.
The car parked in front of the Number One Manor a few minutes later.
Harvey and Ansel then walked out of the car.
Harvey looked around curiously and saw exquisite blue bricks and red tiles , perfect for the aesthetics of elderly people.
Armed men in uniforms were posted all around the place as well. This was enough to explain a lot of things.
“Please, Sir York!”
Ansel brought out all sorts of credentials for a man in uniform before leading Harvey into the courtyard. The courtyard wasn‘t that far inside , but the roads were really well–crafted. There were a lot of detours to get there as well.
After ten minutes or so, the two arrived at a garden. Mountains and lakes could be seen around the place. There were also wooden walkways for people to walk on. Even some pavilions could be seen on the side. It was truly an exquisite place to be.
In the centermist pavilion, a man was looking at Flutwell‘s Holy Mountain far away from the place with his arms crossed.
The mountain was the world‘s tallest, standing at twenty–six thousand feet above sea level.
Harvey looked at the man, curious.
The man seemed a little bit old, but he was still in great shape. His hair was as white as snow, but he still had a clean look.
An unspeakable aura of an elite could be felt from him. Only one who had a high status for a long time could possess such an aura.
Without question, this was Ansel‘s father and the
previous first–in–command, Colton Torres.
His aura and first impression were not something that the brothers could mimic.
“I asked Sir York here for you, Father.”
“Hopefully he‘ll be able to check your injuries from back then.”
Ansel wasted no time revealing his true intentions after seeing his father.
“I‘m Harvey. Nice to meet you,” Harvey said after taking a step forward. Harvey respected people like Colton greatly.
But before Harvey was even done talking, Colton immediately cut him off without turning his head back. “Harvey, right?”
“You‘re just not good enough…”
Harvey froze. “I‘m not good?” Ansel apologetically looked at Harvey. “Father, Sir York is actually…”
Colton scoffed before turning around and sizing up Harvey. “If a person doesn‘t know how to solve the root cause of a problem, their identity doesn‘t matter.”
“In my eyes, not only is he subpar as a person, he‘s also pretty terrible at handling his own affairs.” Harvey looked at the man curiously, and felt the latter‘s aura seeping out.
“Are you telling me how to do things, old man?” Harvey asked with a faint smile.
