Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!

Chapter 67: Chapter 67 - Setting up the Family Registry

We walked at our usual pace and I guided Ioannis to a small inconspicuous office somewhere near the compound of the royal palace. As we entered the building, you can just feel how unpopular it was since the building doesn’t seem to be well-kept. I tried to knock but just as my knuckle touched the door, it opened easily so we decided to just go in. I approached the reception counter immediately to get what I needed the soonest.

I knocked on the counter to get some attention and middle-aged man who should be the receptionist then came out from the back office and asked what help I needed. I answered, ”I just came of age and wanted to set up my family register.”

The young receptionist nodded and then gave me a stack of papers to fill out. I looked into the papers and it was kind of similar to the ones that Kayden gave me before. I pushed back the set of papers he gave me then submitted the ones I have already completed.

The receptionist was quite surprised that I came in prepared but still looked into the documents. He did a quick check to see if everything was filled out correctly. Once he has confirmed that everything was correct, he advised me that the next step will be to set the family crest and they need a drop of my blood for verification.

I gave a detailed drawing of my family crest and a drop of my blood. It was rather quick if I should say so since everything was done under an hour including the document verification and all.

After everything was done, I then submitted three papers to add to my family (I wanted to call it harem but it was a bit weird since I’m signing up a father-in-law too). Ioannis was registered under his chosen household name which is ”Larkspur” from the previous territory he was living in and Kayden as well as his father, Lucas both registered under the household name, Ambrose. They said that it was a surname of a great grandmother that has always been kind to Lucas since he was young.

Both households will be under the main family register, Rosenoir. I know that this is my royal family name back in Eieneos and there is a chance that those races still remember this family name but I don’t want to use anything else. Let those who still know find me. It is not like I have to accept everyone that comes to me, right?

Since everything is settled now, we walked out of the office and made a visit to the nearby business registration office. Once we are in, I looked for Feivel and he immediately assisted me. I introduced Ioannis to him since they maybe times that Ioannis have to represent me if I am unavailable. They talked for some time and they seemed to get along just fine. I completed all the things I have to sign to set up the patent company and my virtual bank.

He said that since the paperwork has been confirmed and fully registered, I can place all my patents under my company as well as deposit a certain amount of capital to officially establish the virtual bank via the royal bank of Hoffen which is equivalent to the central bank of a country back on Earth. I just feel lazy so I named both the bank and the patent company, ”Moon Bank” and ”Moon Patents” which is the meaning of my name. It can’t get any simpler than that.

I went to the patent certification and registration office next to put my 6 patents under the newly formed company ”Moon Patents”. I then went to the royal bank to place my investments of a substantial number of gold bars and some precious gemstones that I got back from Eieneos as its base capital.

This day out is definitely very productive. I dropped by the real estate office to let Ioannis and Izuku meet as well as get updates on the land and buildings I was asking him to build. He said that the progress was quite fast and he believes it would be finished in two weeks with the amount of diligent workers that he was able to hire.

We also went to the alchemy shop to familiarize Ioannis with the old man, Daejung. I also told the old man that if he has made up his mind, he just needs to find Feivel at the business office to add his business under my corporation.

Lastly, we dropped by the magic tower. I missed this place and I missed answering questions for money, honestly. So, I took 10 questions, answered them quickly and left them with my stamp at the box inside the room of questions.

While we are going from one place to another, I was telling Ioannis how I spent my week outside the academe. The last stop was the most important. I brought him to the inn where Kayden and his father are staying. This meeting has to happen sooner or later anyways. I know it is kind of idealistic but I want my men to coexist and work together in peace.

I can see the confusion in Ioannis’ eyes as we entered the inn. We were ordered to return before 8pm but here we are, entering the inn at 5pm.

I went to the receptionist and mentioned a room number and then requested for dinner to be served for four people. I ordered some of Kayden’s and Ioannis’ favorite dishes from the menu and told Ioannis to wait for me since I have to fetch some important people that I want him to meet. He looked at me but I feel like he already has an idea on what this meeting is for.

I left the dining hall and went up to the room I have rented. I already sent a message about this meeting to Kayden about an hour ago so he should be ready.

As I arrived at the door, I knocked lightly and went in. What welcomed me was Kayden and Lucas having a serious discussion. When Kayden saw me enter, he smiled and immediately approached me for a kiss which I readily reciprocated. We hugged each other tight afterwards.

I sat on the bed and as I did, he immediately asked, ”Am I meeting the first guy?” I smiled and simply nodded at him. He sighed and said, ”Does he know he’s meeting the second guy?” I smiled and said, ”I didn’t tell him but I think he may already have an idea.”

He sighed again and said, ”I hope he doesn’t react too negatively to this situation.” I laughed and replied, ”You’ll know in a bit. He’s downstairs. Let’s have dinner together.” He forced a smile and nodded.

The three of us made our way downstairs. My father-in-law said that he will take his food and just eat it upstairs since what we need to talk about has to be just between the three of us. He doesn’t want to be a nuisance as the meeting happens. I understood what he meant and the possibility of how awkward it would be for him so I readily agreed.

As we entered the dining hall, I saw Ioannis staring at the man I walked in with. As for my father-in-law, he hastily took some of the food that should be enough for one person from the table and then hurriedly went back to the rented room upstairs. As for us, we quietly sat around the dinner table.

I introduced the two to each other. For clarity as well, I told Ioannis the story of how I met Kayden and vice versa including all the circumstances to me accepting them. I have also told them that I have already added them both to the family register that I have just created today.

I told Ioannis that the guy who left earlier was Kayden’s father and I took him in as well. I also told them that I have already tagged both of them with the rank of a husband in the family.

They both looked at me with thankful eyes. They started with a handshake which is the usual greeting when two men meet each other for the first time. How formal. They then introduced their family backgrounds and current professions to each other. So far, they are civil and can at least be on speaking terms with each other which is a good start. I am not asking them to be the best of friends but at least they could cooperate together to manage the businesses I will be setting up.

The level of awkwardness is extremely high but I know that this will eventually ease up in time. I need both of them to know that they are on the same team with me and not enemies. After the lengthy introductions, we spent the rest of the time in silence as we finished all of the food I ordered.

As I was eating, I could not help but watch each of them eat. They are both really handsome and elegant when they eat. I can’t believe they are both mine and they both willingly chose me to take care of them for the rest of their lives. They may have noticed me watching them since they both looked at me and then looked at each other and then looked back at their food with their faces and ears in a pink hue.

I chuckled and they both turned a darker shade of pink up to their necks. I teased both of them, ”Are you getting shy right now?” They both looked at me answered at the same time, ”No!” I laughed this time on how they are both strongly denying it when their facial expressions were a give away.

I then told them that in my family, I do not like fighting and too much drama. I don’t like my people sabotaging each other. They have to understand that we are one team no matter what happens in this life.

I also told them that I will be creating rules to keep the peace and those who do not abide by the rules will be kicked out. I saw their face turn pale and their eyes showed some signs of fear. I know I am scaring them but I still added at the end that they also have to understand that meetings like this will happen again in the future when we welcome a new member to our family. I am simply telling them that I am quite open to the possibility of having new husbands and if they do not get their shit together, I can just find a new one who is more obedient and useful.
