Creation System: Reborn As A Fantasy Worldsmith

Chapter 356 Von Haven Family

At this moment, the young man whom Dandrew had knocked out before stood up.

He placed his palm against his head, wincing in pain, before stumbling out with a limp.

A few seconds after the door shut behind him, a pair of guys took Dandrew's unconscious body and heaved it out of the door as well.

As they dusted their hands, smoking their cigars, the door shut behind them.

At once, the entire bar broke out into another peal of laughter, as the mood switched right back to what it was from before.

'I guess that happens often around here...' Lyrian mused, turning to face the young man in front of him once again.

"Who are you? How do you know my name?"

The young man promptly introduced himself but didn't whisper.

As he smiled, he exclaimed, "I am Hyst Von Haven, son of Oben Von Haven, and rightful heir to my family head." He said it loud and clear so everyone could hear.

Lyrian didn't speak, as the man still hadn't answered either of his questions fully.

'Ah... he wants a proper introduction. Befitting, I suppose.' Hyst mused, noticing Lyrian's silence and quickly adding, "My family reigns over Hogolsworth as the Feudal Lords of the city. We are also Lord over Oystanbal, Crenshaw, and Poisnant--three cities that are connected to Hogolsworth."

Lyrian was happy with this answer, but Hyst continued, "As humbly as possible, we are very high-status nobles, far-linked family of the great Drake bloodline. Although, Von Haven is alike to 100th cousins..."

"I see, but you still haven't answered my second question."

"How do I know your name? Well, how about you come with me, Lord. It will be easier to understand that way..." Hyst exclaimed, gesturing with both hands towards the door.

Lyrian was slightly hesitant to trust the man but decided to do so anyway. After all, he wasn't so strong that Lyrian couldn't defeat him in battle. If worst came to worst, he would definitely come out victorious...

After the two left the establishment, some in the tavern were left a bit speechless.

"Did lord Hyst just call that hooded guy lord as well? Who the heck was he anyway?" One guy said before taking a swig of his beer.

"I got no clue Blub... maybe you could figure it out if you had more brain in your head than booze."

The entire tavern suddenly broke out into laughter. Blub, his expression irritated, turned to the bartender--and owner.

"Oi Kavenough! I'm sure you know 'em! Who is he? You upper cunt's always knows what's going on!"

The bartender--a slightly older man who was in his mid-sixties, with a beer belly and a messy apron--replied back swiftly, "Who the hell do you think you are to boss me around? You wanna get kicked out again!?"

"Fine man! You don't gotta be so uptight!" Blub replied, returning to his drink.

Continuing to clean the beer glass, Kavenough thought inwardly, 'So that's him huh? The representative sent from Anaviotis? I heard we might have gotten Lyrian Theageld to come.' A slightly somber expression suddenly grimaced over the man's face, as he slightly gritted his teeth.

'I hope so... if it's him, then this all will be over far quicker.'

Outside, Lyrian walked beside Hyst as they spoke about the current situation.

Hyst spoke about his family first, and as Lyrian arrived at their magnificent mansion, he soon saw each and every one of them.

Hyst initially mentioned his favorite butler, Sebastion. As they arrived at the front door of the gated abode, Lyrian saw how this butler perfectly fit Hyst's previous description.

A man in his mid-70s who had the body of a 25-year-old. A tailored black suit donning a perfectly postured body. Although Sebastion wasn't very tall or extremely muscular, he was far more fit than what his white beard and scalp hair led on.

"Young lord," Sebastion slightly bowed with one hand on his stomach, greeting Hyst, "Lord." He also bowed to Lyrian, who walked behind Hyst inside of the mansion.

With a single glance, Lyrian could tell how powerful Sebastion was. Clearly, this house was not of weaklings. Even the butlers were trained in combat.

Once they entered, Lyrian was taken to the top floor--a meeting room that had many large windows, making for a bright conversation.

Here Lyrian met with Hyst's entire family. Apart from Hyst's father, who sat behind the main desk, the rest of his family sat on a large couch to the side. contemporary romance

They all stared at him as he entered,

and Hyst was quick to step forward and introduce Lyrian.

"Everyone!" He announced, "Father, mother, sisters, grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt, I want you to meet the representative sent to help us from Anaviotis,"

He faced each one of his family members as he addressed them, pausing at the very end.

With all eyes piercing into him curiously, Lyrian took off his hood and revealed his face.

He wasn't expecting the following reaction, which was of gasps and gaping mouths.

Finally, Hyst finished his introduction, "Lyrian Theageld."

This confirmed it for the whole family.

"Lyrian Theageld? Is it really him?" Hyst's sister, 13 in age, couldn't help but whisper to her older brother, 17 in age. She almost had an eager tone as she spoke.

"Yeah... I mean, look at him. He's clearly the kid from the deployment exam."

As the teenager said this, his mother quickly reprimanded, "Hey! Be respectful!" He pushed her hand against his thigh.

"It's nice to meet you all," Lyrian stated, as Hyst's father rose from his seat.

"Likewise... it is a pleasure to have you here, Lord Lyrian."

After this, Lyrian spent an hour or so learning all about his mission--why he was deployed there in the first place.

"As for your mission... we do not exactly know it either." Hyst's father began with this, as he began slowly walking around the room.

"You see, ever since the year prior, more and more dangerous occurrences have been taking place around these parts. Near Hogolsworth--close to the walls protecting the kingdom, that is."

Lyrian gazed at Hyst's father, who continued roaming the room as he spoke.

'Is he that nervous?' Lyrian mused, 'Well, whatever it is, I can't waste time. I'll figure this mission out and complete it quickly.'

"What dangerous occurrences, can you be more specific?"

"Mostly," Hyst's father turned to face Lyrian, "It is person disappearances. They have been happening more and more frequently each time, and we fear the worst..."

Hyst's father's expression turned quite grim as he said this.

"The worst?" Lyrian exclaimed, curious about what he was talking about.
