Diana was still out cold, and yet, he was seriously planning to leave.
Suzanne was really starting to freak out. Was Connor giving this back as a sign he wanted to cut ties with the Gilbert family? Diana couldn't just walk away from his protection; they were no match for Claire on their own. His earlier words were just to test Connor's reaction. Connor paused, turned around, and spoke calmly. "I know full well this is one of the keys to the legendary treasure of the four major families. Each family's heirloom is a key, but you need all four to unlock the door to the treasure."
Legend has it that the four powerful families of the Eldridge Elites have passed this story down through generations. A hundred years ago, during the Republic era, three of these families were top warlords in the area. Eldridge City was under the control of four warlords: the Shaw family, the Gilbert family, the Nagel family, and the Sartori family.
Back then, chaos reigned, and each family amassed a fortune. As the warlord era faded, most families fled abroad, leaving behind their immense wealth and gold. They banded together to create a treasure vault hidden in an ancient mountain monastery. They crafted a magical door that required four talismans, each made from pink emerald pendants, to open.
Today, three of the warlord descendants remain: the Gilbert family, the Shaw family, and the Nagel family, all considered prestigious lineages. After a new order was established, these families returned and quietly rebuilt. The Nagel family dominated the grain market, the Gilbert family opened banks, the Shaw family launched trading companies, and the Sartori family got into shipping, expanding overseas trade. The families quickly rose to power again.
