As Samael jumped on to his bed he thought of the family he was born into. The Forte family, a noble and ancient house, who own restaurants across the globe. They are one of the richest families in the world and they have the absolutely outrageous cheat of the Fortuna bloodline.
The Fortuna bloodline gives its owner Luck and that's it, no affinities, no power or wisdom just luck. The ancestor of the Forte Family used this luck, to help the Britannia Empire become one the most influential territories in the world and in the process created a business empire. Allowing, the family to thrive for generations to come.
Many powerful people, families and territories have invited the Forte Family to join them, to ally with them, all because of there luck.
Due to the fact that almost all of the Forte Family is concentrated in the Britannia Empire ,their luck has superimposed making the Empire lucky too. This has led to many people moving to the city where the Forte Family live to try and leech some of their luck.
This cheat of a bloodline has also caused them to have many enemies however they always bloody survive because they are so fucking lucky.
Fun fact about them, they are banned from every gambling establishment in the world, casinos have developed a device to sound an alarm specifically when it detects the Fortuna bloodline.
Nowadays, the Forte Family have decided to be low-key and focus on improving their trade, William the Patriarch, with one of the highest concentrations of the bloodline has improved their techniques to make them even more renowned in the cooking world.
As stated before their speciality is restaurants and secondly inns/hotels, the reason for this is that their ancestor was the chef of his adventure group, so he passed on his craft to his descendants. This has led many powerful people to beg to taste food made by Forte Family not their restaurants but the people actually in the family.
Even Saints have asked William to cook for them, since his food is truly a legendary experience. The Forte Family's noble rank is Duke, and they are barely second to the Royal Family as no smart person is dumb enough to offend a family who's power is to be lucky.
There are countless stories of their luck, for example when a descendant of the Forte Family was being chased by his enemies, the enemies fell into a random sinkhole leading to their gruesome deaths. Another instance, is when an ancestor of the Forte Family fell of a cliff and into a cave, which somehow let him find a tribulation realm powerhouse's inheritance and treasures.
If you were to ask what Family is the most feared but also desired, most of them would say the Forte Family, as even the most irritable dragons act docile towards them, as no matter how strong you are, you are not strong enough to defeat luck.
Samael, was truly born with a golden spoon.
He was very eager to learn the cooking techniques of his family, as he takes every chance to become a better chef and he loves to learn and perfect new techniques. And now there are countless new techniques to learn.
His Father had promised him that when he began cultivating he would teach him the Family's art of cooking.
Samael tried to sleep but he was too damn excited, he was ready to expose himself to new styles, mix them with his own and improve. He also had to think about what he would tell his parents about his physique after all its abilities were extremely shocking.
However, even with all the excitement, slowly but surely fatigue took over and he began to fall asleep.

Back in the Royal Palace...
"You can leave." commanded the figure on the throne, "Furthermore, do not worry about the boy and his inheritance, I will deal with it."
Alice's protector stuttered and said, "Yo...you...Your Majesty, what are you going to do with him, after all he is the heir of the Forte Family."
....
"Must I answer to you?"
As the words travelled to the protector's ears he began to sweat. He had just irritated one of the strongest people in the world.
"I'm s...s.s.sorry" the protector scrambled to his knees and bowed in apology.
"Leave"
The protector hastily left the Throne Room.
The figure on the Throne got up and walked to his balcony, every action of this man seemed to embody power and respect, as if everyone should grovel before him, he seemed to act like he ruled the world.
"The Forte Family...…, they have been getting too powerful lately, people respect them more than me."
"Am I the Emperor, or are they." The Emperor whispered to the night sky, "But, their bloodline is too annoying, I can't even touch them however, everything has a weakness all I have to do is find it" and when he said this he finally smiled.
As the moonlight fell onto the balcony, we could see the figure better. he looked between 25 and 30 years old (he's obviously not), he was 1.95m tall and dressed in gold and black robes with depictions of dragons sewn into them, he had short blonde hair and a braided beard (Viking style). His frame was huge, with his muscles were bulging through his clothes. A stoic look was plastered onto his face, he seemingly had no care in the world.
But, in summary he could be described by one word.
DOMINEERING.
He was The Emperor and he is one of the most talked about people on the continent, some call him a Tyrant and some call him a Hero.
He was originally the fifth prince, an invisible existence in the competition for the throne, however, he was just hiding his strength and on the day of his eldest brother's coronation he rebelled.
He rushed into the Royal Capital, with his allies behind him and slaughtered his way to the Royal Palace where he had a legendary battle with his other siblings, his father and all of his eldest brothers allies.
He. Killed. Them. All.
On that day a crown stained with the blood of its own people was placed on the head of the new Emperor.
And just as everyone was plunged into despair, believing there lives were about to be ruined by this tyrant, the emperor put in place new laws and regulations, strengthening Britannia, making it stronger than ever. Earning The Emperor, the nickname of the Righteous Tyrant.
