INFINITE MONEY - I Will Buy Everything

Chapter 341: Chapter 341 - A Unusual Family Dinner



Without knowing about what had happened back in her own room, Diana along with her mother ventured down the stairs.

She looked at the house that she grew up in and always as before she saw many animal skins and stuffed animals on the floors and walls.

There was many of them here as she saw a Tiger, Lion, Jaguar and Hippo.

But those were just the normal ones, the true dangers were the flaming rhino, abysmal lion, Speedbreak Tiger, Dark Jaguar and even a lightning evoking Tyrannosaurus rex.

Diana took another look at the stuffed animals which she lost count of and wondered once more, why did they have to make such a show of their killings. Isn't it enough to just say your bravado and move on?

But no, when she had asked such a question, the only thing that answered her each time was laughter accompanied with a mind numbing talk about being a man… seriously what the hell is that?

Can you give birth to human beings?

Can you suffer the pain of carrying a human being for 9 whole months and being kicked by it constantly?

No. Then please stop trying to show off this manliness which only shows how many things you had killed and how wrong you are in your mental state.

"We're here."

Charlotte said as Diana stopped her inner monologue and looked at the large wooden door in front of them that would open up the world of honeyed veiled words and contempt.

"Are you ready?" Her mother asked but to her it seemed like she was asking herself more than her. She wanted to ask her how she was always worried about her surroundings and at the same time so calm too.

It seemed her own mother had her story too.

"Hello there."

A sarcastic voice called out before Diana could answer to her mother. She internally cursed while only frowning outside as she was spotted by the turd. It had to be him than any other person, didn't it?

No, it was actually better that it was him and not his mother. His mother was much worse.

"Hello Charlotte."

And she just cursed herself didn't she?

It wasn't just Leoturd but the wicked witch as well.

Both she and her mother had frowns on their face as they heard those voices but quickly cleared them up and turned around with a pre-acted smile.

"Good morning to you, brother."

"Hello Anabeth."

Her response got a snarl from her brother as he thought that it would get him something else, something satisfying. But Charlotte… her mother was literally having a stare down with the Wicked Witch of the South who didn't back down at all.

They kept on having the stare down while she and her brother looked at each other as the situation was getting weirder and weirder with each passing moment. But her ever brightening smile got to her brother faster than his own sarcastic face… oh! That was his normal face.

Their stare down came to a stop as her mother spoke, "It's so nice to see you again, here for the family dinner right? But weren't you stuck in that situation with mana mining?

The Wicked Witch nodded, "Yes I was but… my son loved his grandsire and wanted to meet him too much, so I couldn't let him miss that and came here quickly," The witch said with a neutral face, "And you? Weren't you in another one of your charity event?"

"Yes I was, but I finished it up quick enough to attend the family dinner. Can't miss such a big event now, can we?"

"We most definitely shouldn't." And the stare down was back on and Diana compelled herself to cough out loud as both of them looked at her, "I think we should get inside, grandfather should almost be here by now."

The mothers nodded at the same time and stood before the door and they behind them.

"After you."

"No, you."

"Why not both?"

"Indeed"

Both the mothers nodded as she looked at her brother who didn't give a shi* to this farce anymore. He had seen it way too much to care anymore.

The door opened and they were the first ones to arrive here. The Wicked Witch, her brother sat on the right side of the large dining table as they sat opposite them in order.

Then it didn't take long before the other members of the family came as well. The next was her oldest brother and her First Mother as they sat left to them and greeted each other. Then came her Second Mother and her oldest sister and sat opposite her brother as she greeted them back to only get a nod in return.

Her second mother and sister were a weird bunch and she didn't try to make any more contact as her instincts screamed her not to.

All of them sat chronologically in order, as the first wife and son, then her mother and she, then came the second wife and daughter on the opposite side with the wicked witch and the turd.

They sat there in uncomfortable silence and it was only for a while before they heard rows of laughter booming out of the hallway as she felt happy to hear that same loud laughter that always made her smile in her days of joy and worries.

The door banged open as her father and grandfather walked in tow to tow, as they talked and grandfather laughed at her father's serious words as if disregarding them.

Her father would try to make her grandfather be involved in the family business but as always, grandfather would wave them off and say he is too old to think about stuff like that.

Says the man that once was called one of the very strongest in the world and had fought through blood and steel to hold the seat that her father now sat and safeguard her very unusual family.

Her grandfather stood at a height of 6.8 and looked quite humongous, even towering her father who stopped at 6.7 and only wore clothes that were comfortable to wear. As always he didn't think to give appearance a careful look nor thought about what others said about it. Why should he when he was still one of the strongest in Escana.

He had a large white beard, a rough face and glittering white teeth as he greeted her the first before going off to the other ones. Then as her father sat in the main seat beside his first and second wife and her grandfather sat beside her, opposite to the main seat, did the meal began.

The dinner was quite funny as her grandfather spoke of his ridiculous tales of fighting large monsters and her father sighing and worrying about the damages he did.

All in all, the dinner was much better than the bland ones they usually had.

...

Charlotte walked as her maid followed her through the main hallway before knocking a large door and releasing her maid before getting inside. She then gave a formal bow to the large dominating man before her and showed him the ashes from the burned letter.

The man took the ashes and somehow was able to revert them back to its original state and read it.

He took his time reading it before giving a smile and only uttering one word.

"…Interesting"
