Riya nodded.
She has the information about Pena's strength in her mind from Mr. Jones.
While it might not be the complete information because Pena would have his own reservation and if one was not pressed to the end, they wold not use their hole cards, but it was good enough.
At least, Riya felt that it's good.
"And the other one…" Riya looked at the side where Nalan had come out and keenly sensed that there was something wrong.
Because the mana that Nalan exuded seemed to carry a trace of despair and strong intent of destruction.
…
Nalan had never thought too much about his life.
Born in the branch family of a big family, he knew very well that those who were talented and strong would have to serve the main family while those who were not talented would be able to live an ordinary life.
It just depended on what they wanted.
If they wished to live a life of luxury….
This was basically impossible.
No matter what they thought or how much they worked, they would never have the chance to truly become the most powerful ones.
Those who dared to resist would be destroyed by the main family.
In the world where money could control almost everything, Nalan had already seen his peers being bullied and even seeing his parents had to bow down to the main family in everything.
But for him, this is the norm.
He just had to listen and be obedient if he wanted to live a good life.
Perhaps ordinary people would scold him and said that he was wasting his life and that he should have chosen a completely different path for himself.
But Nalan never thought that it was bad.
This is his life from the beginning until the end and there was never thoughts to resist or anything like that.
He just have to follow through this path from the beginning until the end.
That's enough.
Nalan didn't want to have too much thoughts in his mind because complicated matters tire him out and it was really annoying.
What value does an ordinary person like him could possibly have?
Nothing.
When he suddenly 'died' and entered Afirer Kingdom, Nalan was thoroughly confused. He didn't know what to do in the beginning, but since his identity was still the same branch family member, Nalan just thought that he had to be obedient and follow through what they ordered him to do.
The branch family members' fate might look bad, but Nalan knew very well that their fate was closely related to the main family members.
If the main family members thrive, then they would also live a good life.
But if the main family members were in trouble, then they would also be in trouble and had to figure out a way of survival.
Nalan has long been educated to be obedient and just follow through what other people in the family told him to do.
If he didn't, he would be punished.
