Chapter 252  Shocking the Upper Echelons of the Leone Empire

Since he was now a Level 5 Esper, Aethelwolf no longer planned to hide his power. He was only concealing himself back then because he felt that he was still too weak to show off to everyone.

Aethelwolf smiled at the stunned crowd. "What are you guys doing here?"

"Sir Aethelwolf, you're actually a Level 5 Esper?" Einar who was usually calm was now staring at him in shock.

Hearing this, Aethelwolf nodded his head and didn't deny it. "That's right."

"Papa, you look cool!" Olivia gave him a thumbs-up as she giggled happily.

Aethelwolf gently patted his daughter's head. He then turned his head to Anton and said. "Sir Anton, please send an invitation to all the elites of the Leone Empire. I want to celebrate my advancement with everyone. Make sure that someone from the Leone Imperial Family will come to visit us."

"Sure. When will this be held?" Anton nodded his head with a smile. Although he was formally the family head of the Lassiter Household, he knew that Aethelwolf was still the true leader of the family. However, he didn't mind this since Aethelwolf was his greatest benefactor.

Aethelwolf pondered deeply before he replied. "Tomorrow."

"Alright. I'll send our messengers to invite everyone and I'll personally invite the Imperial Family." Anton muttered. He then looked at his wife and said. "Honey, please let the servants prepare for this event."

Of course! I will let them prepare a huge banquet." Melissa smiled happily. The Lassiter Household had already become a Count Family since its members were of great help to the recent war. From an ordinary family, they were now one of the most respected members of the nobility! Even the oldest noble households were respectful towards them.

Soon, the upper echelons of the Leone Empire received a sudden invitation from the Lassiter Household. It was an invitation to a banquet that came rather unexpectedly and when they learned about the reason for the banquet, they immediately canceled all their appointments so that they can visit the Lassiter Household's estate.

In the mansion of the Reynolds Household, Julius Reynolds opened an invitation letter in his hands. It was delivered by a messenger of the Lassiter Household.

He read the contents of the letter and not long later, his face abruptly turned serious.

"Sir Aethelwolf broke through and became a Level 5 Esper?!" He exclaimed in shock.

"Father, what happened? Why are you screaming?" Harold's voice came from outside his room.



"Get inside and take a look at this letter yourself." Julius said as he sat on a chair. This matter was too shocking for his old heart.

Harold entered the room and grabbed the letter from his father's hands. "What is this all about?" He asked in confusion.

"Just read it." Julius replied as he leaned on his chair.

Harold stared intently at the letter and read it carefully. Soon, he became dumbfounded.

"This... Is this true?!"

In the Rayden Household's estate, Jericho Rayden was also reading the invitation letter.

"Huh?! What?!"

Aurus pushed the door when he heard the family head's screams. "Sir Jericho, what happened?!" He asked worriedly.

Jericho felt a wave of fear in his heart when he read the contents of the letter. "Sir Aethelwolf is now a Level 5 Esper. He is inviting us to come to the Lassiter Household's estate."

"What?!" Aurus jogged over to him and anxiously grabbed the letter in his hands.

"Luckily, we made peace with him and offered our family heirloom. Our Rayden Household would have been destroyed if we didn't apologize to him back then..." Jericho's spine tingled as he thought of it. He decided to not let his daughter come out of the estate for the time being. After all, she had a small altercation with Aethelwolf some time ago.

Meanwhile, the Urgel Household, the Singler Household, and many more were also invited. All of them were shocked when they read the invitation letter. Even Emperor Ragnar who received the invitation was also stunned by this.

The next day, the estate of the Lassiter Household was filled with visitors. For most people, it was their first time visiting the mansion, but no one dared to cause trouble and they were even extra respectful to the servants.

The person responsible for greeting the guests were Melissa and Janrose. One was the wife of the Lassiter Household's family head, while the latter was Aethelwolf's student.

The estate was also heavily guarded and there were thousands of guards patrolling the vicinity. With their presence, the guests felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. Even the members of the top nobles were no exception.

Looking at the people who are flattering them endlessly, the members of the Lassiter Household felt proud in their hearts. Most of them came from ordinary families, but after they became part of the Lassiter Household, they could hold their heads high.

"His Majesty has arrived!"

"His Highness, Prince Renz has arrived!"





"His Highness, Prince Calvin has arrived!"

"His Highness, Prince Christopher has arrived!"

"His Highness, Prince Calvin has arrived!"

"His Highness, Prince Christopher has arrived!"

"The family head of the Reynolds Household, Sir Harold has arrived!"

The messenger who was responsible for announcing the arrival of the guest was already feeling tired after shouting for almost an hour, but he still wore a smile on his face.

"Miss Aenwyn and Young Miss Olivia are here!"

The arrival of the two immediately attracted the crowd's attention.

"Sir Aethelwolf's daughter is so pretty!"

"What a cute little girl!"

Soon, a tall and handsome figure appeared in everyone's line of sight. It was Aethelwolf who was dressed in modern clothing. He looked sharp and overbearing in his attire.

"It's Sir Aethelwolf!"

"Greetings, Sir Aethelwolf!"

The crowd stared at him in excitement.

Aethelwolf smiled as he looked at the people. "Hello, everyone! Thank you for coming to our estate despite such a late notice. To make it up to you guys, each guest will receive a small gift from me. I hope you'll enjoy the rest of the banquet."

Everyone clapped their hands when they heard his words.
