I look at that 'child' standing there, observing the surroundings with a tired look on his face. He is strong enough to fight against 'him', but the Gods won't be happy. No, when they find that such a monster has been called upon in this world, they will unite to fight against him. This isn't something he or his party can handle right now.
'For now, that is. At least there is hope in the future. Since I have already found him, let's help him until he gets strong enough to be able to stand against a lower God on his own. If it's him, he should be able to do it.'
I then look at the Handsome teenager who is cleaning his scythe with a smile on his face. A small smile forms on my face as I look at him.
'Lucifer, someday I'll save you as well. I might not be strong enough to do that, right now, but I promise, my love, that I'll save you and take you back to the place where you rightly belong.'
My eyes then dart where Aether was a few moments before. Looking at him vanishing, creating no disturbance in the mana structure, always amazes me. Even Gods can't do it as cleanly as he does.
'Oh! Elain. You were right, he really is someone the Gods should be wary of, but, honestly, I still don't believe he will be able to save you from that place. Though I will still keep my promise, let's see where your husband takes his destiny.'
I then look at the sphere in my consciousness to see Aether's location and then vanish from there with no one noticing.
KANETO'S POV:-
I look at Lilith vanishing from here, as if she never existed. I blink dumbfounded for a few moments before realising what was going on.
'No wonder Morpheus let her be in this party. This girl, she is a monster too as well. Even though she pretends not to be and acts as a dumb one. Sigh…is this really a coincidence anymore? I wonder where this is going to take us now. Also, fighting a King, huh? Before, I didn't think something like that was possible, but now that I have really observed Icelos and Phantasos along with the Runes, Morpheus drew on my sword. Maybe in the future, it might be really possible. Who knows?' A smile forms on my face as excitement takes over me. I really can't wait for that day to come.
My eyes then turn to Icelos and Phantasos, who are looking at me with a dumbfounded expression. I replace my smile with an expressionless face, before silently moving out of the room as Corey and Chase observe me.
…
'That was awkward.'
LERAYE'S POV:-
' I wonder if there are strong people I can fight here. Well, I have heard they have their own battleground in the forest. Maybe I should check that place. Who knows what might I find exciting there?'
I then observe that almost everyone has left from here. Watching Lucy leaving from here, I ask her, "Hey! Where are you going?"
Lucy stops as she turns back to me. "Looking for a place to train my mana. If I am going to be strong enough to fight a King, then I need more mana control and proficiency. Since Elves are experts in this, I might find something that will help me."
She looks at me for a few moments before asking, "What about you?" "The Usual," I say and she nods before leaving from here. I then stand up and leave the room too.
…
After everyone left, Icelos and Phan are the only ones left now along with Zwain. Zwain looks at them before asking,
"Do you guys need any help? Basically, since you are Sir Ae- I mean Morpheus' brothers, I can provide you with anything within my limits. Ask away."
Icelos and Phantasos look at each other before nodding, looking back at Zwain with a fire in their eyes, "Is there any place we can freely fight without caring to destroy the surroundings?"
Zwain looks at them for a few moments before pondering over something. After a few moments of silence, he nods and speaks.
"Well, given your power level, there is a place like that, but it's a little complicated. Is it okay to show your full power to the other Elf Branches and Supreme Elves? I mean, it is still difficult to determine whether you guys want to show your powers or hide them."
He has a specially wry smile on his face as he speaks the last sentence. He then observes the two kids who are looking at each other with a smile before nodding at each other and then looking at Zwain and speaking together.
"Brother said not to worry about showing our powers to others in Alfheim. The worst that can happen is he will wipe this continent, so it's fine."
Their words betrayed the innocent smile they were showing to Zwain. Zwain had a ridiculous look on his face. He sighs and buries his face in his hands as he sits on the bed before taking a deep breath as he speaks.
"The most dangerous thing about that statement is that Morpheus can actually do that…sigh, more work for me, uh? You both. Do it in moderation, so that I can control the commotion, all right? Not a good thing to make things complicated for the elders." Zwain lectures the kids, at which the kids chuckle and nod. Looking at their 'honest' smile, Zwain sighs once again and puts his hand on his chin as he ponders over something, before nodding at it and then taking them out of the room.

ISTAN'S POV:-
Since this task is somewhat complicated, I thought of participating in this work as I observe the kids in the classroom. Since a competition was held a month ago, we have 10 children at the age of 12-15 who are considered geniuses among their peers. I look at them, looking at me in reverence.
"All right, so here is what you kids need to do…" I explain to them what their future schedule will be. They looked at me with excitement whenever I said that they will get training by a secret instructor who excels in mana control.
Well, once this is done, let's meet that guy, too.. He is the perfect person to escort Morpheus to the Library.
