They ended up taking a carriage the rest of the way back to their sect since Elysia said she wanted to try riding in a carriage. Alec really had nothing to say in regard to Elysia suddenly developing a fascination with the carriage.

To him, there was nothing much about it as all. As person who had other means at his disposal that were both quicker and more efficient that riding a carriage of all things, riding in a carriage was just a waste of time.

Personally, Alec thought that running back was a lot faster – he could've even used his teleportation array, but since Elysia didn't want to, he felt fine with that as well. Somehow, it felt like he was pampering his girlfriend.

Alec still felt a little bewildered when he thought that he'd actually gotten together with Elysia as a couple. As if his heart couldn't calm down when things were going so well.

However, now that he had her, he had no intentions on letting go of her any time soon…

Getting off in the middle of nowhere, the man looked at them strangely. \"Are you sure you don't need me to wait here for you?\"

Elysia shook her head, beaming at him cheerfully. \"No need. We're fine here.\"

The carriage-driver still looked deeply confused, but he didn't insist. He snapped the whip, causing the animals to lurch forward. These high-born people sure were strange. He just couldn't understand them at all.

Alec held out a hand to Elysia, who placed her hand in his with a smile.

They laced their fingers together very naturally, slowly walking back towards the entrance of their sect.

Unlike before, where Alec shied away from any displays of affection in public, being with Elysia felt as natural as breathing. The only thing was, he didn't know how much of it was because he was a Cher…

It felt like ages since he'd been back, and Alec felt something akin to relief at having returned to a place he considered his second home.

Though they hadn't been in the Awerk continent for that long, it felt a lot longer. Especially since most of the time he'd been suppressing his emotions regarding Elysia.

The two Main Characters walked hand in hand back into the sect.

The first thing that happened when Alec returned from the sect was his master flying out from their peak and landing before him.

The sight of the elder flying through the sky was a cause of surprise for the disciples of the sect.

Most of the time, the elders were lowkey and didn't like to show off inside, but this time, an elder had come out and rushed forward like they were in a great hurry.

However, there wasn't the feeling of tension coming from Nathan, so they relaxed a little. Their curiosity, however, did not abate.

Most of them followed after the flying figure in the sky.

Nathan felt his only direct disciple's familiar magical signature, and he lost control of his emotions. None of it showed on his face, nor in his actions, but he'd been constantly worried about this troublesome disciple of his.


The thing was, he had just disappeared from the face of the earth without informing his master, which Nathan felt more than a little upset about.

Just how much trouble could one person get into at one time!

He'd been planning on getting Alec to enter an exclusive and intensive training regarding his arrays to see if the two of them could make a breakthrough.

In the end, he'd made a breakthrough himself, but it wasn't the kind of breakthrough he wanted.

Nathan felt vaguely resentful that he had such a position of responsibility in the sect, meaning that he couldn't just up and leave like that fanatic follower of his disciple's had done.

He pushed himself quicker by a bit but tried not to appear too hurried to maintain his dignity in front of his disciple.

Finally, he caught sight of his disciple's face.

Nathan landed gently on the ground before Alec.

Alec stared at his master's face, feeling like the man had changed. Not looks wise, but rather… the largest change was that… his master had become a Meister!

It left him briefly speechless as he thought about how everyone around him was progressing too quickly.

He thought that he'd be able to speed up the progress of his training after discovering the secret of why Sins progressed so fast, but he forgot that Brights also had an advantage in this aspect.

Once again, he felt as if he had to speed up his training.

He would have to head off soon to go and pit himself against more monsters to speed up his training again. He felt that he couldn't dwell in romance right now. Not when he didn't know when those crazy idiots would try to make a bid for the world.

He would rather not be so weak that he couldn't protect his own people with his own hands.

\"Master,\" Alec greeted.

\"Alec.\" Nathan stared hard at his disciple before feeling satisfied that he had not suffered unduly in his absence.

He looked around but didn't see that fanatic follower of his disciple, which surprise him.

Then, Nathan's eyes landed on Alec's hands, which were still intertwined with someone else's. Surprised, he looked up, finding that his teenaged disciple was holding hands with a girl.

Instantly, Nathan felt stunned.

This disciple of his that only had seals and arrays in his mind had got a girlfriend?!

Nathan felt mildly aggrieved that he didn't even know about the important matters in his disciple's life anymore.

He staggered away, feeling dazed.

This move of his stunned both Elysia and Alec, who exchanged a look.

They followed after him back to the peak, where Nathan unsteadily walked back into his room.

As Nathan did this, the disciples that had been looking at the show earlier were indeed shocked. They'd never seen the esteemed elder act like that in front of anyone before, and they wondered whether or not Alec had fallen out of favour.

Only the disciples from other peaks thought that, however. The disciples under Elder Nathan had exchanged amused looks.

This elder of theirs had been listless ever since it was reported back that Alec couldn't be found, and that he could not go out and search for his disciple.

More than that, all of them greatly respected their senior brother, who had become an Array Master at such a young age. Most of them looked up to Alec quite a bit and took him as a role model.

Plus, Alec had always helped them out whenever they went to him with questions, which endeared him to them greatly. They wouldn't get any ideas because of this.

The ones that had designs on Alec's position within the peak had already been quietly taken care of by Alec's fans without anyone realizing.

Alec's position within the peak could not be shaken. But this was unknown to him, as well as the people from other peaks that thought that they could sneakily install someone who could sow discord within them.

Alec knocked on the frame of the door, causing Nathan to snap out of it.

The man turned around and sat himself at a table, gesturing to both Alec and Elysia to sit down as well. He was mildly embarrassed by the loss of control.

It had felt like he was out of the loop from his disciple's life, causing him to lose his senses. Showing that to his disciple… made him feel uncomfortable. Like he was seen through.

Not to mention, the various disciples from various peaks must have seen him leaving the scene just like that.

Nathan calmed himself down and went back to his normal stoic self. His excitement at seeing Alec returned had wreaked havoc on his control over his emotions.
