I AM A MAGE BUT WITH MILF SYSTEM

Chapter 26: Newfound confidence

After a refreshing bath, Julian slipped into his noble attire, a finely tailored outfit that highlighted his stature and charisma. The fabric shimmered subtly as he moved, the deep blue hue complementing his striking features. He felt invigorated and ready to face the day.

As he made his way to the grand dining hall, the aroma of a lavish breakfast wafted through the air. The table was adorned with an array of delicacies, golden pastries, fresh fruits, and savory dishes prepared by the royal chefs.

As he entered, the chatter of his family filled the room, their laughter ringing out in warmth.

Julian took his seat at the head of the table, where Alden, Regina, and the rest of his family welcomed him with smiles.

"Good morning, my son!" Alden said, raising his glass. "Let's celebrate your newfound power and achievements!"

The atmosphere was lively, and Julian couldn't help but feel a surge of pride as he realized the potential that lay ahead of him.

Julian carefully masked his true power, suppressing his magic to that of the Mage Realm while concealing the immense battle strength he now possessed as a Sacred Realm mage.

He understood the importance of discretion; if his family discovered that he had achieved such a significant breakthrough in just a few days, it would undoubtedly raise suspicions and provoke unnecessary inquiries.

As he engaged in breakfast conversations, he remained vigilant, skillfully steering the topics away from his recent accomplishments.

His family members discussed various matters, their plans for the day, upcoming events in the kingdom, and even light-hearted anecdotes from their past.

Julian nodded and laughed at the right moments, all the while plotting his next moves in this intricate game of power and secrecy.

With each bite of the delicious food, he contemplated his newfound abilities and the endless possibilities they presented. The Lightning Milf Technique would grant him the power to absorb mana from powerful women, and he couldn't wait to put it to use.

But for now, he had to play the part of the dutiful son, waiting for the right moment to reveal his true self when it would be most advantageous.

Duke Alden's words jolted Julian from his thoughts. "Do you remember what today is?" he asked, a sense of urgency in his tone.

"We have to be present at the Royal Academy. All the youngsters and successors who have reached the Mage Realm from major families will be there."

Julian's heart raced at the mention of the gathering. This was a significant event, showcasing the next generation of powerful mages. It was also an opportunity to observe the skills and strengths of others, a chance to gauge where he stood among his peers.

"Of course, Father," Julian replied, maintaining a composed demeanor. "I wouldn't miss it for anything."

He hid his excitement beneath a veil of calm, knowing that this event could be the perfect opportunity to showcase his newly acquired power while still keeping his true abilities under wraps.

As they finished breakfast, he mentally prepared himself for the day ahead, eager to see who else had reached the Mage Realm and to explore any potential alliances that could benefit him in the future.

Julian turned to his sisters, Eva and Eleanor, curiosity sparkling in his eyes.

"What realm are you in?" he asked, eager to gauge their progress.

"We're in the Sovereign Realm," Eva replied, her voice steady and confident. Eleanor nodded in agreement, a proud smile on her face.

Julian's mind raced with possibilities. Imagine the amount of points I can draw from them, he thought, excitement bubbling beneath the surface.

The thought of conquering his sisters brought a rush of adrenaline, the bonuses from their higher realm status enticing him further.

He concealed his ambitions behind a casual smile, but inside, his mind was already calculating the potential gains. With their authority and power, each encounter would not only be thrilling but could catapult him further into dominance within the system.

As the breakfast chatter continued, Julian made a mental note to explore the opportunities that lay ahead during the day at the Royal Academy.

Julian's gaze lingered on his grandmother, the Grand Duchess, as admiration mixed with curiosity. How powerful is she? he wondered, intrigued by her status and the influence she wielded within the family.

He turned to the system, curiosity piqued. "Can you tell me the realm of my grandmother?" he inquired.

The system replied smoothly, "Yes, but it will cost you 1,000 points."

Julian paused, weighing his options. The potential knowledge could unlock even greater strategies for him, especially considering the bonuses he'd receive from someone of her caliber.

Is it worth it? he thought, contemplating the point cost against the value of that information. After a moment's consideration, he decided it was a necessary investment.

"Fine, show me her realm," he commanded, ready to sacrifice the points for the insight that could help him in his future endeavors.

"Grand Mage" the system replied nonchalantly,
