A month has passed, the celebration lasted for three days before the festivities died down. Since the ceremony, I took on additional duties as the new Deity of Verve and I have to admit, it had taken on a lot of my time and most of the time, my plate is full of duties.

"Your highness, the council meeting is in half an hour."

And of course, given that I am now a deity, I no longer have to wait for my presence to be called and I'm automatically part of every meeting and discussion.

"I'll be on my way," I said and stood up

"Thank you for the hard work, Celestials, you take your week break now," I said and the sigh of relief coming from Wren and the jab he received from Cell didn't escape my eyes

"Thanks, Master," Cal and Cula said and I smiled

They gave me the full details of the situation in Magicea, somehow, as the rise of non-magic users arise, so does the number of children from non-magic families unlocking their abilities but there's no denying that the ratio of the latter is lower than that of the lower but it's still better than nothing, and the difference is not that great anymore.

Lin, Hie, and Era are also working in the Academy, teaching basic spells and incantation to the young children in hopes that even if they don't unlock their abilities they can still use the stored mana within their bodies, while, Ant and Tory are teaching young children how to strengthen the mana within their body and how to gain mana from the nature.

Hare, Mird, Lure, and Cula on the other hand are currently teaching the young dark magic users to control their abilities and the knowledge they will be taught in the Academy. Although, the Dark Kingdom and its inhabitants no longer pose any threat to the rest of Magicea, some people still can't get over the terror that the Dark Manor had impressed upon them under the reign of Darius and end up throwing shade and prejudice against them.

Currently, apart from the four aforementioned, one of each family visits the Dark Kingdom once a week to teach the young children the lessons taught in the Academy. Tamtam is usually the London siblings' representative after he got married to Ulna, he stays in Magicea for half a month before going to the mortal world and staying there for half a month to help his brother.

Elsie and Dark formally requested that the Dark Kingdom be allowed to have their school for the sake of the innocent dark magic users, Elsie has stated that bringing them up in an environment without negative emotions may stop them from turning against Magicea. I personally agreed with it because if the young children were to be shielded from prejudice and brought up in an environment that makes them feel welcome then surely they won't turn against the people once they have grown up and had enough power to fend for themselves.

"Greetings, your majesty," I paid my respect to the Queen Diadem as soon as I enter the room

"Take your seat, Deity of Verve," the Deity of Faith said and I sat on the chair next to the Deity of Lores who is playing with his golden ring

When our meeting began, one by one, the Deities reported the state of their domains in both the human and magic world. Most of the reports are about how their domains are improving or maintained in the magic world and most reports, especially those of the environment-related deities, complained about how humans are exhausting the natural resources of their domains.

"The Celestials had just reported a while ago that the numbers of children from non-magic families unlocking their abilities have increased, although it still hasn't exceeded the numbers of those non-magic users born and magic users who have lost their abilities, the difference in numbers is not that great compared to the data months before." I reported my update on the first issue regarding Magicea
