When Ella woke up, she realised she was not, in fact, dead or in a hospital but instead...the main heroine of the famous internet novel, 'Kingdom of Light', Ella Deon! The supposed commoner who was the 'Goddess of Light' who gathered a harem of flow...

"Oh! There's my mother over there!" Ella pointed out.
Whilst having an interesting conversation and trying to know more about Wulff [but who only just embarrassed Ella], they reached the crowd of eager parents.
"Are your parents in the crowd?" Ella asked innocently. [Okay, let me see if I can tell Wulff's identity. Is he the hidden character with a tragic backstory or is he some rich kid? Or both?]
"Yes. My pickup is just over there." He pointed to the right of Ella where a tall, pale man with a monocle stood.
"Oh. I guess we have to part ways...I'll see you at the orientation then?" Ella hesitantly said. [God, why do I sound shy all of a sudden?! Just act smooth, girl!]
"Unfortunately, our time is up. Indeed, I look forward to talking with you more, Ella Deon." Wulff then took Ella's right hand and gave it a brief kiss.
"Until then, goodbye."
"Uhh, oh yes. See you soon." Ella said, nodding her head and trying to act smoothly. But inside, Ella was having another breakdown. [AKSJSKLFDSKFDNKSDLLDLGJFDZLGLFD DID THIS KID JUST KISS MY BLOODY HAND AJSKDKDDLD!!!!!!]. Giving each other a wave, Ella turned to talk towards her mother. Ignoring the stares from other children and parents due to the revelation of her OP gift, she rushed to give her mother a big hug.
"Oh, my baby! You did well! Why don't you tell me all about your test back at the inn?" Her mother said, realising the number of strange stares directed at her daughter.
Meanwhile on Wulff's end...
"Congratulations, young Master. I assume it went as planned?" The pale, tall man asked, whilst walking together.
"Mmmm...yes."
"And the young lady? Is she the one?"
"Yes, Alfred. She's the one."
"Then you must protect her. You must not let them get to her." The butler, Alfred stressed.
"Be at ease. I will protect her at all costs. She's mine, after all." Wulff said, smirking.

Back at the inn, Ella finally told her mother what happened during the Mana test, minus the strange lady's prediction. She wasn't sure how her mother would react to the news. [Would she be happy or scared? I don't want her to worry]. Instead, her mother was understanding.
"Oh, sweetie. Congratulations. Goddess Maria has blessed you with her gift. If I can remember, I don't think we had a Light user in a thousand years or so?"
"Wait- FOR REAL?" Ella gasped in shock. [Although I read the novel, some things still feels unreal].
"Yes, my daughter. The last Light user was a thousand years ago and was vital in the war against the Kraken's Army and the formation of our Kingdom."
