(Days later after the attack in Grayfall's palace and Xiazress's death, the top fighters and several Gods and Goddesses was summoned to Earth's Elemental Division building but they all was angered and irritated with their faces clouded with dark shades. Gaito then walked in the room after arriving in time and everyone was silent.)
"Gaito: I heard what happened to Xiazress."
"Poseidon: Where is Sawano, shouldn't he be here with us?"
"Gaito: Sawano is taking a leave of absence to attend to his family emergency in the Magachi dojo. Besides, knowing he still cares about her I'd doubt he'd be in any good mood to hear the news. Nevertheless, there's Kazuya..-"
(Onara slammed her fists on the table which then it snapped itself in half as she was frustrated beyond imagination.)
"Onara: WHERE IS HE.. I'LL KILL YORITO..!!!!"
"Goxius: Lady Shiori, you must relax. I too feel the pain of losing an empress like Xiazress but we cannot let you stress yourself out with the death you didn't expect coming."
"Onara: THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO DO? I DON'T GIVE A DAMN IF HE-"
"Jogeta: Miss Onara, I'm sorry to cut you off but let me stop you right there. Goxius, HOW EXACTLY could this assailant kill one of the strongest void users in elemental history?! Xiazress is a hero to MANY fighters and this... BASTARD kills her within a blink of an eye!! EXPLAIN THAT, MISTER CHRONOS WANNABE BITCH!"
"Goxius: I do not respond to foul language nor do I understand how he'd managed to kill someone who's one hundred billion times more powerful than he is."
"Jogeta: WELL TRY TO FIGURE OUT A DAMN REASON! YOU'RE THE KEEPER OF TIME RIGHT?! YOU'RE A TIME ELEMENTAL WITH YOU AND THE GRIMOIRE OF YOURS YET ITS BLANK!!"
"Goxius: The grimoire is blank to the human eye.. But to a necromancers eye, there are countless of spells within this grimoire. If I wanted to, I could personally freeze this or two entire dimensions for as long as I want. But, I do have one ability within the grimoire I can use to figure out who he is, but this would require me getting a sample of his DNA.... so settle down."
(Jogeta sat back down and scoffed.)

"Jogeta: In fact while we are all here, Angel. What's the update on dealing with Amber Hunt?"
"Angel: She's taken down six of our fighters and not even the high commission can get to her."
(The others was surprised.)
"Ash: Hold on! Isn't Konnor the only one who can match Amber in this type of fight?"
"Angel: Konnor's only good with arrows. As we said, Amber Hunt's bullets can be anything touches. Even her own skin! Unfortunately, Konnor only has one bow. He won't reload fast enough against a gunslinger if his arrow take five seconds to stabilize again."
(They all thought about it until Gaito repaired the whole table and smirked.)
"Gaito: I could have a familiar master of mines handle this problem."
"Faiz: Gaito, before your plan. Why are these two here?!
(He pointed at Shibuto and Hinami sitting in the corner, listening to the entire conversation.)
"Gaito: H-Huh? Didn't I tell you two to sit up here with us? You two might be students of mines, but you both are technically royalty as Gods."
"Both: Sorry!"
"Gaito: But seriously, if she's America's top assassin.. we'll have to put a hit on her from Japan's most finest assassin!"
(Meanwhile in Yamaguchi, Lotus was training his students in martial art combat in a one verses one hundred fight. Lotus kept his pinky's nail balancing his staff's edge as he countered and attacked back with just his legs and left arm. He swung his staff into the air and started fighting back without holding back. A few minutes later, Lotus stood tall as all of his students was fallen.)
"Lotus: Your training has concluded."
"Disciple #1: How did we do master?"
"Lotus: That was two percent of my strength I was using. If you all cannot land a single strike as I use two percent of my own strength, I am sorry to say my students... But you'd may as well hang the robes."
"All: NO SENSEI! WE WILL BECOME STRONGER SENSEI!"
"Lotus: I appreciate your enthusiasms. You're all dismissed, see you tomorrow."
"All: YES SENSEI! THANK YOU SENSEI!"
(Lotus then walked into the inside of his dojo as the students then departed. After an hour has passed of quiet meditation, Gaito silently appeared in Lotus's meditation room and had his hand held high. With fast yet swift speed, Lotus caught his hand and dodged out of the way, his eyes closed and Gaito smirked. The both of them began to fight at a fast pace but they'd then fight outside the dojo, both their attacks and counters was being evaded and blocked. A split moment later, they'd separate and have their weapons aimed at each other's necks and stopped their fight.)
