BloodRock city was a massive city with luxurious structures and buildings that had seemingly stood the test of time, the streets were paved with sturdy and well laid gravel and right in the middle of BloodRock city was a gigantic Rock.
This Rock was right in the middle of the city and was cited atop a massive hill. The center of the city and its sigil of brilliance.

In the middle of the bustling streets that was BloodRock city, Leon’s troop made their way, following closely the members of the bloodserpent clan.
"To your left is the bloodScorpion clan, they are a lethal bunch and are every bit as ruthless as our clan. Give them their distance though, cause even though we are friends they do have a bit of a temper"
Beside Leon the lady, whom Leon had letter identified as Fiona showed him around the city whilst escorting the prisoners they had captured to the ’dungeon’
"There’s also the bloodmonkey clan.....now those guys are trouble....."
The city was filled with clans that had origins in blood, it was a strange congregation but a very unique and diverse sight.
This was BloodRock city.
A city that had Been in existence even before the Royal family of eldoria.
"And we are here"
After a few more minutes of riding, they appeared before a massive gated mansion spanning several blocks. This was the blood serpent clans main branch.
"Go on in and take the prisoners to dungeons" fiona commanded the men.
She was an enforcer in the clan, meaning she had the power to prosecute crimals and punish offenders withing the clan.
"As for you guys" she turned Leon.....
"None clan memebers aren’t allowed into the main house, so you’ll have to Ditch your slaves" Fiona said with a blank expression on her face while facing Leon’s people.
The bloodserpent clan in eldoria might have been an Average one, but here in BloodRock city? They were supreme so not any tom, dick and Henry was allowed into the clan.
This was an unshakeable rule.
"Aii I see, well, I wasn’t planning to go in with them anyway. Let me get my people settled first then I’ll come back to see the clan" Leon nodded in understanding before Explaining his plan.
In truth, his coming to BloodRock city wasn’t for the bloodserpent clan. In fact, he didn’t want to relate with them that much. All he wanted was a peaceful environment where he could slowly accumlate what he needed to futher his goals.
Plus, something else had him bothered about being close to the clan, he sort of knew that it was unavoidable, but he would definitely have to face it sooner or later.
"I see, well we will see when you’re....ready, you know where to find me right?" fiona nodded as if be she didn’t care, but a facial expression betrayed her.
There was a reward for bringing in a talented clan member into the fold of the main clan. And she hadn’t meant alot of people as talented as Leon....so she hoped to cash in on the reward.
"Good, until we meet again," Leon smirked and controlled his men to ride deeper into the city streets giving distance between them and the main clan building.
Not too long after, they arrived before an inn west of the bloodserpent clans main house and went into it.
"Welcome to the honeywine in, how may we satisfy you today?" Behind the counter a nonchalant attendant stood filing her nails paying no attention to Leon.
She didn’t seem to care about Leon and his men even though they were not a small group.
"We would like a 8 bedroom courtyard next with a spring" Leon said loudly causing the atmosphere to become silent, drawing the attention of a few people around.
"Excuse me?" The attendee looked up with a frown. What leon had just asked for was an elder suit, it was reserved for the prominent people of the city....as such it Was very expensive.
This kid was asking for it?
His surprise was shared with the people in the main lobby.....but of course, there wasn’t just surprise. An air of disdain soon filled the room.
From Leon and his companions attire, it was clear that they weren’t from around here, if not they would understand how stupid this stunt was.
"Kid, get out of the way, you’re blocking our view of miss lang"
"Villagers from the boonies, go back home"
On a dinning table not to far away from them, a group of drunken old men cursed at Leon and his men. These guys were clearly drunk.
"Sigh....kid this is the central City, forget the rest of BloodRock city, this place in particular is very expensive." The attendee stared at Leon with pity for a few seconds before Explaining to him the situation.
"Plus, even if you had the money....courtyards of this size are usually reserved for elders of the various clans...."
Her words were direct and went to the point, and Abiet her condescendance, Leon understood her.
"How much is it though" Leon shook his head and asked. He didn’t understand the reason why these guys would just jump to conclusions like this, but what could he do?
"Sigh.....you guys are just so stubborn" the attendee sneered, she was acting like a big sister here, why was this asshole behaving like she didn’t know what she was talking about?
"What ever, here’s the bill.....you still can’t enter without the presence of an elder. Someone at level 3 or above will suffice" the attendee after a brief moment of vexation handed Leon the price and not surprisingly, it had him absolutely shook.
(Why don’t you guts just go ahead and kidnap people and ask for ransom money???)
He was about to blow in his mind. This amount of money could buy a whole house in duan royal city.... why was this the rent for a month here?
What kind of logic is that ?
While Leon stared surprisingly at the price tag, the attendee couldn’t help but gloat in her mind. This guy had refused to take her advice now he was seeing that she was right.
"What will you do now?" She said to Leon with a hint of mockery.
"It’ll cost an arm and a leg, But whatever. Give me a room for 3 months" Leon robbed his forehead with frustration.
This was close to half of his earnings from pillaging the dalriss family mansion.
Before their very eyes, the 5 wolf brothers entered the room with 7 fully pack bags of coin and placed them on the ground.
"That’s the money, you can check" Leon Said coldly.
Immediately he did so the men in the counter froze In shock at the scene before them.
5 fully armed men walked into the Inn with five bags of what they could only presume to be gold. This sight was shocking to say the least.
So they slowly sat back in their chairs for the fear of annoying this rich tycoon.
"Yes, this is indeed the correct amount....but what about the clearance from a level 3 elder?" The Attendee suddenly became more respectful after seeing the amount of money Leon had at his disposal.
He was clearly rich tycoon.
"Hmmm," Leon smiled and slowly floated a few meters above the ground and looked down at the attendee.
She suddenly felt like the kid as she watched Leon look down on her as if she was one.
Flight!!! This kid who was standing before her was a level 3 warlock.....she felt like burying her head in the sand at the moment.
Funny enough, Leon had no intention of frightening her, he just wanted a place to rest and he saw that showing his strength would probably cause the others to back off.
"Right this way sir" After pulling herself together, the attendee finally lead Leon and his men to her most luxurious courtyard. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓾𝒷.𝒸ℴ𝓂
It was their honor to host such a young talent.

In the evening,
Inside of the bloodserpent clan main building.
"That’s too much isn’t it sister? He just got here"
Inside a dojo somewhere in the compound, a fairly old man said to a lady in her twenties.
"Yehha"
"Huuu"
"Bloodserpent work"
Infront of them, several young men and women could be seen undergoing training in the dojo.
"I just want to see if he’s competent. Don’t you want our enforcers to get a new addition to our talent list?" The young lady pushed on.
They needed as many talents as they could find, not just for their own influence but for the growth of the clan at large.
"Sigh, okay....I’ll check him out this night" the old man finally gave in.
She had come here begging him to go test a new talent for the clan. She essentially wanted him to attack this person as an evaluation of his strength.
And this person was None other than Leon.
