"Then, just wait. You will see the results soon." As Diana heard her brother's voice, she couldn't help but feel at ease as it was the same as in the past.

'His eyes….. They are burning.' As she saw the crimson gaze that contained intense pressure coupled with his leaking aura, she was captivated. 'No matter what you say, brother, you are not someone that would let them off the hook.' She thought, as her heart filled with joy.

When he spoke about disregarding the opinions of others, Diana believed he truly didn't care. However, the blazing fire within his eyes revealed the truth— he would not allow those who had crossed him to escape unscathed. 

'After all, he is my brother.' As she remembered the things of the past, she once again felt at ease. 'I should not have doubted him, even for a second. What am I doing?' The realization filled her heart as she reconsidered her earlier words. 

No matter what happened, she always thought her belief in him would never shake, but in the end, no emotions would stay to the bitter end as everything can change.

'This is because I didn't see him for a while.' She blamed this for her doubts as she looked into her brother once more. 'I really can't stand living without him.'

Wanting to stay with her brother filled her heart, as she wanted to feel the warm feeling that was spreading from him.

'Hehehe…. I really want to stay with him today….' She thought as she saw him walking. 'He smells so good. Brother, brother, brother….' Though, in the end, her thoughts swayed the wrong way.

"Brother, what are you going to do today?" 

Hearing the question as I felt the slight pull on my sleeve, I turned my head back, only to see Diana looking at me with the same shiny eyes. 

She tugged my arm with hers while pushing her body onto mine.

"I am planning to check training rooms," I answered, not minding her closeness. 'Since you will be stalking me anyway, I guess saying that won't matter.' I couldn't help but think, knowing that she was a girl with such tendencies. 

Though there are boundaries that need to be protected, I don't mind Diana showing her obsessiveness over me if she keeps it within limits when that doesn't make me feel like I am controlled. Also, knowing that she will stay with me no matter what happens makes me feel at ease. That is why I am tolerating her behavior, which I would not normally do.

Also, she has the necessary tools to stalk someone since she can communicate with spirits. She was someone with the rare Fairy Class, after all.

"Then, is it okay if I come with you?" Diana asked, looking at me with shiny eyes. 

From these eyes alone, it was blatantly obvious that she really wanted to train with me. Or maybe she just wanted to spend the time together, which meant the same thing. 

 "You can come. But don't expect too much. I will just test some magic." I answered as I accepted her to come with me. 'Training alone is not bad, but seeing Diana train might make me learn something new.' I thought, looking into her eager eyes. 

In the end, no matter how strong or successful one is, there are things one might not be aware of, as in the end, that one phrase is always true. 

ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm 'The only thing I know is that I know nothing.' Reflecting on this timeless phrase from Earth, I felt a pang of humility. ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"Okay!" As she answered with a zealous tone and a smile that was reaching her ears, I couldn't help but smile as well.

'She is like a little kid when she smiles like that.' I thought. 

Sometimes, I forget that she is just a young girl who also has desires that she wants since I remember the things that happened in the game. The fate that awaited her, the actions she had taken, the way she talked and behaved, all those things made me forget that she, too, was a human, even if she was slightly cracked in the head.

"Then, we can meet a second later, okay?" I suggested.

"Okay." And she agreed.

Just like that, I entered my room and grabbed the things I would need in the training rooms.

*****

"Sigh…. Another boring day…." A young woman with bob-cut hair spoke as she looked at the students that were going in and out. The air was filled with a sense of purpose and determination, but for her, it had become routine. The repetitive nature of her work sometimes weighed heavy on her spirit.

"How good would it be if I was a student once again." She mumbled to herself how she longed for the days when she herself was a student, eager to learn and grow. The excitement of discovering new abilities, pushing boundaries, and striving for excellence.

"At that time, I was just busy looking for guys to sleep with…. Now, I wish I had trained harder." For some reason, she was reminded of the past out of nowhere, as the regret filled her heart. "I couldn't find a good husband either…. Look at you, Elara; you are all alone at the age of 30." Her voice filled with sadness as she looked into the entrance.

Elara's train of thought was abruptly interrupted as her eyes met with the entrance. To her surprise, a couple emerged, emanating an aura of elegance that caught her attention. As her gaze shifted between them, a mix of curiosity and admiration filled her heart.

The young man possessed striking features that captivated the eye. His crimson eyes, contrasting against his jet-black hair and pristine white skin, conveyed an air of authority and allure. His commanding presence was undeniable, and it was no wonder that heads turned in his wake. 

"Black hair and red eyes…. Isn't he the one?" She mumbled to herself as she saw them passing. "He really is the most handsome boy I have ever seen." 

Beside him stood a young girl, a vision of beauty with her platinum hair cascading around her. Her vibrant blue eyes sparkled with happiness, and her radiant smile illuminated the room. There was an undeniable charm and grace about her as if she were the personification of joy itself.

'She must be his step-sister than, Diana Augustride.' She thought. At this point, almost everyone knew about Callius' past identity and his relationship with her household.

"Hello, miss." As a respectful but commanding voice entered her ears, the middle-aged woman woke up from her stupor, and her gaze met with the crimson gaze.

"Cough…. How may I assist you, student?" As she coughed up and regained her composure, she asked, looking at the young man especially, ignoring the slight darkness oozing from the girl.

Just like that, just by entering the presence, two young people made the day of a worker better as they reserved the best room to train thanks to the special perks of being rank one and two…
