Chapter 144: My sister's marriage ceremony (2)



She warned me not to eat much as there was a feast prepared. I even made sure to only eat enough so that I wouldn\'t feel hungry.

Tonight I have to fill this body with the food that my mother has prepared for us.

I don\'t know what she prepared for us, but I would devour them as if my life depended on it, maybe it would.

After I got refreshed, I went to the family hall. With the marriage in two days, everyone was busy. There are always things to do. Everything needs to be perfect.

This was not a commoner marriage but the marriage of a viscount\'s eldest daughter. So the scale would be big. Many nobles would be invited.

Since Eritrea served in the military as did my parents and other siblings, a lot of military personnel would attend too.

I learned that my soon-to-be brother-in-law, Essan Rowler, served in the military alongside Eritrea. They were classmates in the academy and after graduation as per rules had to serve in the military. They served in the same regiment. So there were a lot of interactions between them.

I learned that both Eritrea and Essan had reached Tier-5. They were almost on the same track page when levelling up, so they were assigned to the same missions too.

They got closer and closer. Funnily it was Eritrea who proposed first but Essan only agreed to her after she agreed to certain conditions. This was the gossip that my brothers whispered in my ears when we chatted or spoke with each other after it was known that Eritrea was getting married.

What those agreed upon, no one knows. Maybe Mom knows but no one was daring enough to ask her.

I saw that everyone in the hall was busy, so I returned to my room and started chatting with Inari and Asya for the time being. I can return in the evening to eat. With my training schedules, I don\'t get enough time to have proper chats with the two.

They work for me, so I should show some decency and speak with them every now and then.

When I arrived in the hall to eat later, everything was laid out and others were waiting for me. My father sat at the head of the table. My mother to his right. My two sisters sat on her side.

To my father\'s left, my brothers sat and the third seat was left vacant for me. Seeing that they were waiting for me to start, I quickly my seat.

After I took my seat, my father spoke, "Everyone, it has been too long since we seven sat at the table and this may no the possible until one of you marries. So to enjoy this evening, your mother ordered a lot of food. I hope you enjoy it".

My father raised his wine cup, "To the family".

"To the family", we all raised our cups.

We started to eat the food slowly while speaking with each other, telling stories of their own lives.

The table was filled and there are still other tables filled with food. If this was Earth, every one of us would get stomach aches after eating this much food. I don\'t believe that we could eat all this if we were common people who didn\'t awaken.

As the seven of us had awakened, eating so much food was not a problem for us. There would be no food wastage, but even we can\'t each this much every day.

To enjoy this feat, I had to starve a bit and I believe everyone here did so.

Moreover, much of the food made would go to the servants of my family. There are a lot of servants who serve the direct family itself.

It was dark when the feast was over and I was able to return to my room.

Now that the feast part was over, I should go to Nexus and train for a bit.

No, I should postpone that. Though I have high INT and all that, I need to appear fresh when the wedding takes place. There would be photo sessions and my body may appear in a bad state if I keep up with my extensive training.

I can take potions to restore but those potions have toxic residues, which is not good for the body in the long term.

Normally there shouldn\'t be any toxins but low-rank alchemists are not powerful enough to achieve the best results. Only a high-rank alchemist can remove almost all impurities that are present in the low-level potions but they won\'t do so.

It is wasting precious time for them.

Similar to combat professionals, where one can\'t gain EXP for killing low-rank monsters, it was the same for the creation professionals as well. They need to up their work as their rank increases but it is not as easy as one thinks.

Combat Professions gained EXP by killing while professions like Alchemists would get EXP by successfully creating potions and other alchemical products. The issue was that the output was not 100%.

So to reach a high rank, they should have a rich or noble background. If not, they would stay at the bottom of the society.

Similar to combat professionals, creation professionals gain almost no EXP for creating low-rank products. So they won\'t waste their time and resources on that. Instead, they try to achieve higher ranks.

So potions have toxins and using too many would cause problems later.

I know this because it was recorded clearly in the family library but outside they won\'t say that. This is why I try to not use them at all.

I should take a break for a few days from training. I can restart after I return to the academy. Missing three days of training wouldn\'t cost me anything.

I can rest my body and mind for these three days.

Instead of training, I should use this time to find who in the family has turned against the family or would cause problems for the family or help out the family during the ceremony.
