My Farm System: Reaching The Top In The Parallel Earth!-125 Chapter 125
Greenwood City
Military Department
“Well met, General Bone Sage” Dominant Sky said in a polite tone that people use on their peers
Whether it be Dominant Sky or Bone Sage, both of them are 6th fusion rank mages. One is a General of an entire City and the de facto leader of all the mages inside while the other is a member of the powerful and prestigious Preston Family
Naturally, the two of them are equals. Neither side could be overbearing nor do they have to be extremely polite
The two of them are inside a meeting room of the military. They were sitting on the opposite sides with a table with some refreshments in between them
“Well met, Miss Dominant Sky” Bone Sage replied in the same manner, neither arrogant nor humble but still retaining politeness
“General, I know you are busy, may I go straight to the point?”
“Of course, that is what I would prefer”
Dominant Sky nodded her head before speaking again. “I heard that the Truth-seeking Rod was stolen more than a week ago?”
At that, Bone Sage sighed. “Indeed. The newly elected Vice-general even perished and has to be replaced again”
“With the disappearance of the Truth-seeking Rod, eliminating all the Clay Dolls before launching a raid should be impossible, right?”
“Miss Dominant Sky’s point is?”
“General, please raid the hideout of the Twighlight Beast in Greenwood City. The Preston Family is willing to offer help”
Bone Sage raised his brows. Claude might have been the citizen’s Dark Saint but the Preston Family itself is different
They are similar to other mage clans that only prioritize their own family. They are not the type that would suddenly help for no reason
After all, whether it be in the Eastern Country or the other countries, conflicts between the powerhouses are common
The Preston Family wouldn’t risk the lives of their members causing their strength to weaken if there is no reason
“If the Preston Family is going to help, I naturally would love that. However, may I know the reason?”
“It’s nothing to be carefully hidden for nor is there a hidden motive so the General can set your mind at ease. It’s just that, there is a holder of the Token of Gratitude of our family living in the City. The longer the conflict with the Twighlight Beast is, the more their life would be in danger”
“Oh, if that’s the case then can’t you just help them live in safer places?”
“The token’s holder doesn’t want to move and the person that helped them have the token wanted them to make decisions on their own”
“It’s not every day that the Preston Family’s Token of Gratitude is given. Just who exactly gave it?”
The General can’t help but be suspicious which is normal. These mage clans wouldn’t make a move without sufficient benefits. As such, he can’t help but think that there might be something in Greenwood City that urged them to move
“It’s the Dark Saint” Dominant Sky replied. When speaking of Claude, she was filled to brim with emotions of guilt
Saving Shadow Dog and Rezen’s subordinates was not easy even for her and Claude
They succeeded but both of them suffered heavy injuries. Dominant Sky can escape on her own but Claude was with her
If not for an entrance to an ownerless Blessed Land that suddenly appeared, they might have died back then. Claude’s disappearance filled her with guilt
“The Dark Saint is still alive and we all know him. Every single dangerous encounter he had turned into a fortuitous encounter that enable him to reach the 5th fusion rank at such an early age” 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m
“Since he wants to protect the safety and freedom of the token’s holder, even the Preston Family couldn’t go against his wishes as long as he is still alive. We all know the kind of personality he has”
Dominant Sky didn’t plan on hiding things as she knew the misgivings that the General has
Mage Clans in the eyes of the military were selfish and not for no reason. She has to dispel the General’s doubts if she wants the cooperation to be smooth sailing
“The Dark Saint… I see… if it’s him… indeed” Bone Sage nodded his head
To the 7th rank mages, even the most talented mages in the country have almost no chance of breaking through passed the ‘mortal ranks’ no matter how talented they were
There is only one person that everyone in the country thinks has a chance of reaching the 7th rank in the current era and that is none other than Claude Preston
With his personality, it wouldn’t be strange if he were to accept resources from the Preston Family and act as if he was loyal to them but then betray them once he gained enough power
Of course, Claude is not the type of person that would betray people for no reason. That would only happen if they betray him first and they touched his bottom line
The people that Claude decided to protect that is not just Rezen… even his family wouldn’t dare touch them
That’s how frightening Claude’s personality is. He could turn a blind eye even if an innocent person is killed in front of him but once he gained enough power, he would definitely chase and execute the sinner
He knows when to advance and retreat along with his talent, who wouldn’t think that such a person is frightening?
“Alright, I agree. The military will cooperate with the Preston Family to eliminate the Twighlight Beast in Greenwood City”

“Honey, stop swimming already” a woman said with a chuckle 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶
Her hair was tied in a bun as she wore a two-piece swimsuit with a thin long dress that slightly hid her figure
She was standing at the edge of the beach while looking at her husband with eyes filled with love
This woman is not unfamiliar to Rezen as this was his own mother; Yssa Virion
As for the man she ‘called’ honey, he was Rezen’s father; Heinley Virion
Rezen’s family was simple. Both of his parents have some talent to be a mage but without a background and lacking resources, their path was blocked and they could only become people that are neither rich nor poor
Yssa and Heinley even managed to retire early while securing their future expenses through pensions and dividends from some stocks
They wouldn’t be rich but they do not have to work anymore!
“Come on, we are returning soon and we don’t even know when we could enjoy a vacation again. What’s wrong with enjoying a bit more?” Heinley replied with a pout but he still walked out of the water
“There’s nothing wrong with enjoying the beach but not to this point! Look at you! You’re already as black as charcoal! Don’t you feel any pain?!” Yssa retorted, her face painted with dissatisfaction and her husband grin
“What? You wouldn’t love me anymore if I have dark skin color? Tsk, tsk, tsk, colorism is not good!”
“I don’t care whether you are black, white, brown, pink, or whatever. Get your ass back in the shade! I don’t want to hear you complaining later about how painful your skin was!”
“Tsk”
Heinley followed her wife back to the room that they rented to wash up and change clothes
The room only has a simple bed enough for the pair of husband and wife along with a single bathroom
“Hurry and wash! I heard that there are rare aquatic plants that can be bought here. We could buy them for Rezen” Yssa said causing her husband to laugh
“Hahaha! You indulge our son too much! He has a farm, not an entire ocean! How could he even take care of aquatic plants?” Heinley replied with a laugh and Yssa pursed her lips
.?O? “As if you’re one to talk, look at those” she said while pointing at the bedside table with two black rectangle boxes. One was large and one was small
“Aside from the seeds of native plants in the places we visited, you even bought those expensive seeds of Spirit Plants! Do you think that Spirit Plants are easy to grow? If they are then they wouldn’t be that expensive!”
At that, Heinley scratched the back of his head
The large black box was used to store the seeds of plants that are native or popular in the places that he and his wife visited as a gift to their son since they knew his hobby
The small box on the other hand stored fewer number of seeds since the seeds are seeds of Spirit Plants
To normal people, those seeds are extremely expensive. After all, just like what Claude said to Rezen, the seeds of spirit plants are not too expensive but the various large organizations manipulated the prices
Those few seeds of Spirit Plants are way more expensive than all the seeds inside the large box combined
“What do you know? Who knows, Rezen might give us a surprise! If he can grow Spirit Plants then he might still become an accomplished mage in the future!” Heinley replied and Yssa smiled
All they want is for their one and only son to be happy have what he wants
