It's been a year since then, and Alaric was finished with his Detoxification Classes, a prodigy in magic, he is seen buying a home for himself, a large one in Sharia just a few minutes away from Ranoa. Ariel was alright with this and relinquished his debt to her, as all... They're all living comfortably as the now 15-year-old boy was...

"I'm so BOREDDDDD" He was bored out of his mind. He didn't know how to contact Reida Reia, he can't fight the monsters here without them dying in one swing, and his skills aren't improving. He is practically a noble with all this money by his side, but what else can he do!?! His business is a curse to him now...

"Then why don't you just become a guard or something? People would pay a lot of money for someone of your status." August wondered, sometimes crashing with the boy, as Alaric groans,

"Because I don't want to! I promised Sword King Ghislaine to work by her side, and now that promise is broken with a business like mine!" Alaric explained, as August then states,

"Then why don't you just marry her? Any woman would marry a rich, strong, and educated man such as yourself." August wondered, causing the boy to stop, as... Well... He did feel lonely...

"..." Alaric was silent, he would... But Lucinda...

How would she think knowing Alaric- ugh...

"..." Alaric remembers the time spent with her... The moments of help he got from her... The treasured memories of young lovers... He wants that with someone now more than anything...  He felt completely alone... June doesn't even mind staying as friends, but he never says her like that... He doesn't find her attractive, not in a bad way, he just doesn't see her as a potential love interest... Even without counting personality, and likeness, why is Alaric always seeing her chest???

"..." Alaric growls, realizing this body is NOT cooperating with his line of thought. He likes personality, not body...

"Tsk, stupid Paul..." Alaric growls, realizing Paul's genes are influencing him. Zenith's still shine through, though.

"Knock knock knock" Sounds the door, as Alaric gets up, heading close to it,

"I'm coming, I'm coming," Alaric says, as opening the door,

"Hello, how may I help-" Alaric looks at... Here!?!

"R-REIDA REIA!?!" Alaric's eyes widened, as Reida stared with nothing but one thing on her mind. To test him.

"Hm." Reida looked at the boy, sensing the strength of his Touki...

"You've grown stronger, I see... Seasoned, more than I could ask for in a few years, Alaric Greyrat." Reida states, as Alaric awkwardly wondered,

"R-Reida... Would you like some tea...?" Alaric wondered as Reida smirked,

"So, you made some profit, huh? Figured, when I entered the Adventurers Guild your name was the talk among the town. Killing a wyvern, and retrieving the bones of a Snow Dragon, I'm impressed. This is more than I could ask for of you, boy." Reida explained as Alaric chuckled,

"W-Well... I wanted to put my skills to the test! And, well... I got carried away..." Alaric is seen placing a teapot, elegant in design, and some cups down. He has been getting into floral teas, as Reida smirked,

"You've made a living for yourself, even that restaurant, Water God Tavern, is doing well. Tell me... Do you wish to become Water King right this second, Alaric Greyrat-" Reida stopped, bitting into the pastry, and was a bit surprised,
