Since he didn't want to open the chest here, he tried to put it into his inventory, but to his surprise it didn't work, but instead he got a system message.
<< Warning: This item contains a separate space and as such can not be put into other separate spaces. >>
This was the first time something like this had happened to him, and the message didn't really help much either, since he had no knowledge concerning space and it's properties, not to mention the interaction of two separate spaces.
As such he didn't think about it to much and just put it under his arm and then proceeded to go home, where he could open it and look what was inside.
He didn't get far, when his phone rang. Pulling it out from his pocket with his free arm, he saw that the caller was his mentor.
"Hey Ivan, good job at the tournament. Come over for a party, I will send you the address.", before he could say anything, his mentor had already ended the call after saying what he wanted to.
"What the...", Ivan cursed softly. Sometimes he found his mentors way of doing things annoying. Even so he still looked at the text message which consisted of only an address and then checked the navigation app on how to best go there.
Half an hour later he stood before a luxurious villa, which was the address his mentor had send him.
On a small shield at the entrance he saw the name of his mentor, so it should be his villa.
"Seems like the elders aren't living badly."
In the more than half a year that he had been his student, his mentor hadn't invited him to his house even once, so he had no clue as how he lived.
He then walked through the entrance gate into the well cared front garden, towards the front door. Where he then pressed the bell.
Soon the door opened, and a beautiful woman looked at him.
"Hey, you must be Ivan right?", not even waiting for Ivan to nod, she then continued, "I'm Jenny. Come on in, everyone is already waiting for you."
With that she turned around moving towards the living room, while continuing talking.
"I saw your last fight during the tournament. Never expected that someone could push that litte girl to use her pet, while being at the same age."
Ivan felt a bit overwhelmed by her continuous chatter, but what surprised him was that this woman had called Miss. Tang 'litte girl'. In addition to her slightly similar look, he was sure that they were related in some way.
Shortly after they reached the living room and the woman dropped the biggest bomb until now.
"If my husband bullies you in any way, you can just tell me and I will set him straight."
"Your husband?"
"Yes, Carl is my husband.", she answered and then saw his shocked face.
"Don't tell me he didn't tell you anything about himself?"
Ivan nodded his head. His mentor had truly never told him anything about himself. Even his relationship with Lara, was only known to him because of the circumstances.
"That's so typical of him.", Jenny said angrily. "Well, whatever now that you are here, I will make sure to introduce you the family."
They had reached the living room and saw that there were already a few people seated on the comfortable looking couches. Besides his mentor there was another woman, who had her head leaned on his shoulder. The place on the other side was free and after telling him to find a seat Jenny sat down there.
Besides them there was an older pair Ivan didn't know, but which had an aura of oppressive might around them. Then there was another person he had already met, which was Miranda van Berg, the mother of Lara. Besides her sat an elegant man, who had an aura around him, which was different from the older pair. Theirs was one that would make one feel oppression, while his made on want to obey his orders. Ivan named this aura 'Ruler Aura', for himself. Looking at his closeness with Miranda, he could make the educated guess that this should be her husband and Lara's father.
After he sat down besides another young man, his mentor greeted him.
"You are here.", he then introduced him to the others, "This is my student Ivan and I'm sure you have seen him during the tournament."
Everyone else greeted him too.
"I'm sorry about the drawings during the tournament. With your strength you could have easily been the second place.", the older woman said, to which Ivan helplessly answered, "My luck just wasn't good enough this time."
His mentor then pointed at the black chest, "How did you get this thing? I know that you don't have enough money to buy a Storage Chest."
"This is called Storage Chest?"
"Yes, it is an expensive magical tool, that can be used to store things. Inside of it there is a separate space, so you can store much more in it than one would think, looking at it from the outside."
"Someone gave it to me and said it was a gift from Miss. Tang."
"Little Lin gave it to you?", Jenny asked with a shocked look.
"Yes."
"Do you know what's inside?"
"No, I hadn't had the time to open it yet."
"Then do it now. I'm really interested in what this little girl has given as the first gift to anyone outside her family."
Now it was Ivan's turn look shocked, "You are saying, that she hasn't gifted anyone outside of her family anything before?"
Jenny nodded, "As far as I know yes. This girl has a cold character and as long as she thinks someone isn't worthy she won't have any interaction with them. And in her eyes just about everyone is unworthy. That's why I was so surprised when she gifted you something."
