Chapter 2 The Essence Farm's Promise
It is a beautiful day with birds singing in the background. Inside a house, a young man and his father are present. The young man possesses distinct physical features, particularly with his striking light green eyes, light brown hair, and an attractive face. He is dressed in a white shirt, black pants, and gray shoes.
The house itself is cozy and welcoming. It is adorned with tasteful decorations and filled with warm natural light streaming through the windows. The walls are painted in soothing hues, creating a serene ambiance. The furniture is comfortable and well-maintained, with a mixture of modern and traditional styles. The living room features a plush sofa and a coffee table adorned with family photos and a vase of freshly cut flowers.
In the kitchen, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the air, complemented by the delightful scent of homemade pastries prepared with care. The dining area is set with a polished wooden table and chairs, creating a perfect spot for shared meals and family gatherings.
Overall, the atmosphere within the house reflects a sense of harmony and familial connection, providing a peaceful haven for the young man and his father to enjoy their day together.
His father, on the other hand, shares similar characteristics with his son but wears a different outfit. He has the same striking light green eyes, light brown hair, and an attractive face. However, his attire distinguishes him. He is wearing pants with a different closure style compared to his son.
The father\'s clothing reflects a more classic and formal style. He wears a tailored pair of trousers with a button and zipper closure, giving a polished and sophisticated look. His shirt complements the ensemble, perhaps a crisp white button-up or a subtly patterned dress shirt. Completing the outfit, he opts for sleek leather shoes, adding an element of refinement.
Together with his son, they create a visually appealing contrast - the young man\'s more casual and contemporary attire against his father\'s timeless and refined style. This contrast further highlights their individuality while emphasizing the close bond they share within the comfort of their home.
The father of this family is named Jan Kappel, and the son is named Andreas Kappel.
"Son, today is going to be your first day of work. I\'ll accompany you to the essence farm. Don\'t worry, you\'ll do just fine. Since you\'re my son, you\'re likely to have a Rank C for your essence! AHAHAHA!" The father says to his son while placing his hand on his shoulder.
The son is surprised by the confidence his father places in his evaluation. "Understood, father! I\'m not worried. I know I\'ll receive a good evaluation of my essence." Andreas smiles at his father.
Seeing his son smile and confirming that he is okay, Jan removes his hand from his son\'s shoulder and grabs his coat from the coat rack, putting it on. Andreas does the same upon seeing his father leaving the house.
Jan\'s face beams with pride as he gestures for Andreas to follow him. They step out together, their footsteps echoing lightly on the front porch. Jan\'s coat billows slightly in the gentle breeze, while Andreas adjusts the collar of his own coat, ready to face the world outside.
Their expressions convey a mixture of determination and excitement as they embark on this new journey together. Jan\'s eyes twinkle with paternal affection, while Andreas showcases a youthful eagerness, eager to prove himself. As they walk down the path, the sunlight illuminates their path, casting a golden glow on their figures.
Once outside, the father and son approach the car parked in front of their house. The vehicle itself is rather unassuming-a simple dark blue four-door family car.
"Onward, we mustn\'t be late for your first interview!" Jan says to his son, opening the driver\'s side door of the car. Andreas nods and gets into the passenger seat.
As they embark on their journey, the landscape unfolding before Andreas\' eyes undergoes a drastic change since leaving their home. Their house is located in the outskirts of the city of Dorandel.
Andreas notices that the streets are predominantly occupied by women tending to gardens. Among them, he also catches glimpses of several succubi-women with animal-like features-moving about.
The scenery transitions from quaint stone houses with well-maintained gardens to towering buildings with sprawling parking lots filled with numerous parked cars. The bustling cityscape comes into view, buzzing with activity as people go about their daily routines.
The expressions of the passersby vary from focused determination to casual contentment. Andreas observes the women diligently caring for their gardens, their faces radiating a sense of pride and fulfillment. He also catches glimpses of succubi, their unique appearances commanding attention and fascination.
As the car navigates through the busy streets, Andreas takes in the vibrant tapestry of the city. The architecture evolves from residential to commercial, with imposing structures reaching towards the sky. The hum of urban life permeates the air, a symphony of car engines, distant conversations, and footsteps.
The journey offers glimpses into the diverse and eclectic nature of the city\'s inhabitants. Andreas witnesses the harmonious coexistence of humans and succubi, each contributing to the tapestry of everyday life in their own distinctive ways.
With every passing moment, Andreas becomes increasingly aware of the vast opportunities and challenges that lie ahead in his quest to secure his place at the essence farm.
The car continues its steady progression, carrying father and son towards their destination, as the cityscape expands before them.
A few kilometers later, they arrive in front of a grand building. Standing proudly in front of it is a sign indicating the name of the establishment, "Dorandel Essence Farm."
"My son, this is the largest essence farm in the city. I barely made it in with my Rank D," Jan explains. "So, my son, I know I told you to aim for at least a Rank C, but don\'t worry. Even if you receive a Rank F, you will always be my son. Our relationship won\'t change. So, don\'t feel pressured during your evaluation."
Jan gazes at his son, a hint of shame creeping into his expression as he recalls barely passing his own essence evaluation. Internally, Andreas empathizes with his father, understanding the financial burden he has shouldered since the absence of Andreas\' mother.
Despite the hardships, Andreas remains resolute. "Don\'t worry, Father. I will achieve at least a Rank C in my evaluation!" he declares, a glimmer of determination shining in his eyes. "I hope to be recruited into this essence farm."
As they stand before the imposing building, emotions swirl within both father and son. Jan feels a mixture of pride for his son\'s upcoming opportunity and the weight of his own past struggles. Andreas, on the other hand, carries a sense of responsibility to succeed not only for himself but also to alleviate the burdens his father has shouldered.
The grandeur of the essence farm looms above them, its exterior exuding an air of importance and significance. The architecture is both modern and practical, reflecting the purposeful nature of the operations taking place within its walls.
Despite the nerves that linger, there is also a flicker of hope in the air. Father and son share a brief moment of solidarity, their eyes meeting with an unspoken understanding and support. With their bond as their anchor, they gather their courage and step forward, ready to face the evaluation process that awaits within the Dorandel Essence Farm.
