Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

The Lothschild were one of the leading economic leaders of the present age.

They were the top merchant organization in the world and they were also leading corporations that practically controlled the entire economy.

They weren\'t affiliated with any one nation in this world like mom who was also one of the richest people in the world, but they were so much more powerful than her that they owned their own nations.

\'Yes, they \'owned\' nations.\'

Throughout all three continents, there were many nations that were completely drowning in debt- money that they had borrowed from the Loths at a reasonably low interest rate.

\'They were practically the shadow governments in those nations.\'

And, the most interesting thing about them was the fact that they were a large conglomerate family owning multiple businesses that could put any simple person in the world on the list of the richest people in the world.

They owned businesses in nearly every field that one can think about as well as investments and partnerships in many of their industries that someone else was looking after for them.

\'They were a power on par with the cumulative power of the entire Roxanna, or Lakmer, while their influence was as vast as Theocracy.\'

However, since they weren\'t actually affiliated with any nation or famous names, nearly all of their activities were unknown and hidden under strict curtains.

They were unlike the normal families.

The main members of their house lived in hidden places somewhere in the eastern continent while the ones that worked directly for them, or the branch members of this household, lived scattered across the world.

\'It was a unique system they had created themselves, so it would have been quite difficult to meet them.\'

But thanks to the upcoming Grand conference, we are soon going to have a chance to meet them.

And I wanted to make use of that opportunity.

There were many things that one could gain from having any kind of connection with that one family. Be it money, resources, connections, knowledge, Human Resources, or even special items that not many people in this world knew about.

Just having a connection with the young representatives of that family was a big thing, and I wanted to have it for many of my plans.

[ "Adam Lothschild? Are you talking about the merchant that we helped a long, long time ago?" ]

"Yes. That person."

As a divine being, they had a unique concept of memory and there was nothing like \'forgetting\' for them as they did not store their memories in their brain like the mortals did.

They had no physical body to begin with so there was a completely different concept of memory for them. It wasn\'t surprising that they remembered a person that they had helped thousands of years ago.

They knew who I was talking about and they could tell what I wanted from them.

"The esteemed divinity provided many things to that individual and they were able to achieve many things in their lives.

I believe one already knows about them and their various descendants that might have been here after that person."

From what I knew, the descendants of Adam most certainly visited this place after clearing many of the challenges on many turns of the history.

\'There were stories of how the Lothschild had been saved from the fall in the pages of hidden history right when their descendants somehow managed to obtain a large quantity of rare natural resources in that period.\'

There were many who turned out to be as ambitious and as mindful as the first master of that household, and it was said that it was all thanks to their encounter with the same divine beast as the one that their ancestor had come across.

There were many that still lived in the pages of the historical records, and they were all individuals that knew how to operate, generate, and use money.

\'Thousands of years of history wasn\'t made just with the help of solid financial resources and foundations. There were many things that made Loths what they are even in this era.\'

They were a family made on the most solid foundations, and they knew what was important in this worldâ€" how the family was more important than anything else in this world.

[ "We know of them. They are funny people that somehow find their way to this cave every few centuries.

We greet them as the guests of an old acquaintance, however they worship us as something close to a god.

It\'s quite funny, and adorable at the same time." ]

The Loths were quite literally the strongest family in this world if we were talking in terms of total resources, forces, pure power, authority in various countries, and their overall position in this world even though the common citizens did not know much about them.

\'In the eyes of the world, they were a famous trade organisation sitting at the summit of all the traders in this world but, that was all.\'

Few people knew how sixty percent of the official shops they visited in any city of any nation in any part of any continent was somehow connected to those people

But, those in power, especially those like mom who knew how the money worked or those like me who wanted to enter the political, economic and financial circles, knew very well about the Zeniths who owned a portion of this world.

[ "We know of them… however, we do not understand what you mean when you say you want to receive the proof of our existence and our connection to that poor liberated soul." ]

They did not know what I was talking about since, well, they did not know what to do when someone asked them to give them the proof of something that was beyond a higher being like them.

It was the natural response I was expecting, so I elaborated a little further.

"I understand that you have given them a certain element that they carry with them along with all the other things in this place?

The flower or a petal from the elemental flower?"

If I\'m right, the Loths certainly have a way to recoganise the individuals who have visited this cave, a way to prove their encounter with the higher being to the elders of the house.

\'There have been subtle rumours in the past that the Loths do this strange competition to decide various positions their children are going to take over where they use certain objects to decide positions ranging from the financial manager to the House head.\'

They were only rumours for the simple and normal people of this world but, those who knew the truth behind those rumours would not want to investigate further on them as they know what it would mean to disturb the Lothschilds.

People, even the supreme emperors of Roxanna and Zarak Orion, avoided going on their bad terms since the business was much more important to them than what was going on inside their families.

\'They were a high functioning ecosystem and just like the family our Vice president belongs to, the Loths know what they are doing as well.\'

The (High elder) one of the strongest powers of the current world is still alive and kicking so the others have nothing to worry about at least when it comes to the Loths.

So, they mostly only talk business… which I could have done with the influence mom had alone if that was my goal.

[ "Hmmm… there certainly is something unique that we bestow upon them as a token of friendship. However, we do not believe you could have it." ]

"Well it\'s fine even if I can\'t have it as long as I know what it is… and as long as I get to have a memory fragment from you."

I gave Them a smile that they most definitely interpreted as a smile of someone with twisted intentions.

However, I know for certain they did not feel any ill intentions from me since there were none present in the first place.

[ "A memory fragment…?" ]

They were confused for a moment, however, it did not take them more than a moment to realize what I was talking about, or what I wanted to do with something so practically useless.

[ "You are a crafty one, hun?" ]

They shook their head with a smile on their face, flew back on top of my head, and after another light that shared a fragment of their memory was passed down to me… a little moment that surprised the two ladies looking at me with a subtle stunned expression.

"What… just happened?"

Rein was confused, and though Zoe figured it out in a moment, even she could not tell why she was feeling that little blank in her own memory.

[{ "He used a divine skill to show me his true form." }]

I cleared her confusion with that simple answer that obviously did not like, and after that had ended… well, I almost had all that I had come here for.

[ "We could not give you what you asked for due to time constraints and circumstances, however, if you desire it… we can present you with a petal of the Elemental gateway." ]

"Hun? We\'d take it with a bow of gratitude."

I just said it instinctively since I was NOT expecting something like that coming directly from him.

But, he was actually serious about it…

\'He actually gave us a flower petal from the elemental helix…\'

And that too, before everyone else that had come back to their senses.
