(Note: all those who are in the body refinement realm would be called martial artists)

The southern part of the continent Auphera, Kingdom of Alba. Office of the King.

Opening the door was an old man with white hair with the air of scholar walked towards the middle-aged man who is at his desk looking through papers.

"Greetings my king", said the old man.

"How did it go?" The middle-aged man asked.

"Congratulations, your majesty he is a boy," said the old man.

This old man is known as Frey the current prime minister of the kingdom of Alba. Frey had no last name since he was born into a family of commoners But his achievements would not lose even to the progenies of great aristocracies. As for the man he referred to as his majesty, he is the current king of the Alba kingdom "Lewis Alba".

"what's his talent?" Lewis asked again.

"His talent is average," Frey replied as he already knew what was going on. It was not the first time he had given this kind of news to the king he had already experienced this treatment with the princesses who are less talented, The king believes that all his offspring should be born genius but Frey thought it was somewhat ridiculous. even though the king's talent was considered high but he was not someone who could be termed a genius born in thousands of years! The same could be said to his wives who are talented but they were not daughters of heaven, if there were the daughters of heaven they would have married emperors or sect masters of first-class sects on the continent, not to some "king of a small kingdom."

But due to the king's ego, he considered himself a great martial artist, without considering that he was only at the peak of the sixth stage despite his age. while the emperors and sect masters of the lowest level wherein the 8th stage and great elders in the ninth stage grandmaster, there were rumors that there were elders who are far stronger than the great elders respected as supreme elders who are half a step away from a whole new realm to which ordinary people can not enter.

"So he's not worth spending time or resources. it would be better to give them to his older brothers." Lewis said without any consideration for his newborn child. for him, all that mattered was the talent. His first and second son had good talent and in the future, they would be able to reach the ninth level of grandmaster.

(In a few years, they would be able to enter great sects and help him by providing miraculous pills made by the high-level alchemists of the sects for his breakthrough.)thought Lewis. After considering a little he said, "When he turns 2 years old we will provide him with an alchemy potion of bone marrow clenching as per any aristocratic customs, apart from that, he will receive the same amount of resources granted to the first princess for his cultivation."

hearing that Frey couldn't help but lament as the king has not even considered naming his newborn nor asked his name? this reveals that the king doesn't really bother about his wife and child. Frey bows then take his leave.

After departing from the king's office he walked through the palace and proceeded to another room.

Where resides two elderly couples they are Alexander's grandparents. the founding king, and queen of the kingdom of Alba. Adam and Beth Alba, they were two commoners who founded the alba kingdom from scratch. because of the love, they had for each other Adam did not take another woman as his concubine for which they had only one son. The current king Lewis, if it were not because he is an only child he would not have inherited the throne.

"Frey requests your audience to speak."

"you can enter" stated the voice of an old man on the other side.

Without further hesitation, Frey opened the Door and greeted the elderly couple who were seated while drinking tea. Although these people had snow-white hair, they Looked like middle-aged people. If you saw them, you would think that they were in Their forties but they are over eighty years old.

"What is the reason for your Visit?" Asked Mrs. Alba.

"Mr. and Mrs. Alba, I came to congratulate you as your sixth grandchild was born," said Frey, coming to the point.

Upon hearing it, the eyes of the elderly couple lit up and the queen mother urged for more details without any delay.

"He was born about two hours ago, he's a boy and he's healthy," said Frey.

"And what's his name?" Asked the old man.

"Alexander," said Frey.

"Who is his mother? and how is his talent? "asked the lady.

"he's the son of the ninth concubine Miss Anna Webber and his talent is average"

(When they heard that they already understood what had happened after all they knew their son very well, they are 90% sure that the name of his grandchild was not given by his son, and he had not even seen him yet. They knew very well that his son has several wives but he only loved two women before marriage. They are the current queen of the kingdom and the third concubine the mothers of the first and second prince. while his other wives came from Great and small families of the kingdom or neighboring kingdoms as political marriages.

They knew that Anna Webber was the second daughter of the duke Webber of the Snow Kingdom allies to the Alba kingdom. As they could not marry the princess because the queen's position was already occupied, The Duke was ordered to marry his daughter with King of the Alba kingdom with the status of concubine.

She gave birth to a son with average talent adding to the fact that the king did not feel a deep love for her they knew that the future of that child would not be as promising as the first and second prince.

They could not sit by while that happened, after all, he was their dear grandson and they wanted the best for him.) Mr. and miss alba.

If it was not because they wanted to concentrate on the martial arts they would not have retired from Their duties as Founding king and Queen.

Currently, the elderly couple were at the peak of the seventh-stage, little longer and they can advance to the eight-stage then they can speak on equal terms with sect elders. Due to the ambition of the couple, they handed the throne and the kingdom to Their son to rule as he sees fit.

They were different from their son as they did not care about the talent that his grandson had. The fact of being their grandson was enough for them to shower him with love without any hesitation, Frey was asked to direct them to meet his sixth grandson.

Meanwhile in the queen's room

"Madam, the reports have arrived. it seems that the ninth concubine gave birth to a boy whose talent is average, so there's no basis to worry about him obstructing the future of the first prince. Besides that according to our reports, the King plans to give him the same amount of resources as the princess," said the queen's maid leader while leaned towards the person on the other side.

On the other side, you could see a beautiful woman in her thirties beside her was a five-year-old boy with facial features like that of the king. they are the current Queen and the first prince.

if one were to say one thing that is common in the duo of mother and son that would be the arrogance in their eyes identical to his mother. essentially ever since he was born his mother instilled him with the values of her family so it's not a wonder he displays the same qualities as his mother.

The family of the queen was one of the Greatest families of the aristocracy in the kingdom not only that but the queens' father is the number one general of the kingdom general Vincent Keer.

The Keer family is known for their arrogance it said that apart from the royal family they do not respect any other family within the kingdom.

In fact, during their Youth, the scions of Keer family have done whatever they pleased but they were never punished due to the protection of their father including the fact that the king at that time the crown prince was in love with their younger sister. So guards and officials Looked away to avoid any disciplinary actions.

This got worse when the first prince was born. thinking that although he would have the surname of Alba when he ascends the throne in a couple of decades then the Kingdom would be ruled by the Keer family.

"That's good I do not want any more competition for my son," said the queen. After a moment of consideration, she continued saying "In case of doubts make arrangements so that the resources that were given are of poor quality to avoid any surprises but remember not to make any direct movement towards him, his mother is the second daughter of a duke and his sister is the current queen of the Snow Kingdom. Although it's a different country the territory of the duke is right next to this kingdom so, it would be foolish to anger him and force the Snow kingdom to declare war."

" I will follow your orders," Said the servant as she left.

A similar scene was playing in the room of the third concubine.
