"HUH!?! WATER KING!?!" June is seen gasping as she eats some fried rice, before shoving another spoon in her face,

"Oh my god so good...!" June states,

"Water King, huh? So that's why you weren't home." August noticed that Alaric wasn't home, and now he knows why.

"Why, missed me or something?" Alaric wondered as August sighed,

"Don't flatter yourself. You have a running business, and you're free from the university, it is simple that you would've been set on your tavern but still think calling it Water God Tavern is a nice name." August explained as Alaric growled in his mind behind a smile on his face,

"I just didn't have the best words to use."

"Alaric Tavern, B.T.D, Water God Tavern, which ones would you pick?" Alaric wondered, as June states,

"Definitely the third one." She bluntly states, as Alaric then comments,

"Now is the process of moving my sister and her mother here... There is a lot of space here, and I don't think staying in Asura is the best choice while I'm here." Alaric explained, as back in Asura...

"To Ranoa!?!" Aisha is surprised, awed even, the nine-year-old almost set on going.

"B-But how did he...? H-He bought a home!?! H-How?" Lilia wondered,

"Mister Sauros... Alaric too invites you to stay at his home, if you wish." Lilia talked to the man, as he was... Surprised,

"Eh? Do you mean that kid got a running home? At his age?"

"Well, Master Alaric was very knowledgeable..." Lilia explained as Sauros chuckled,

"If it means getting away from Darius, sign me up," Sauros explained, which Flute came in,

"Now now, Lilia. If you wish to go, I believe saying goodbye to your mother and father will be important, not like you thought of that before you left us worried and sick!" Flute explained, of which in a few months, maybe weeks, the three will eventually be residents at Alaric's home!

"Water King, eh?" Says the woman from the Adventurers Guild, as Alaric updates his card.

"Right... It feels weird though, you know?" Alaric wondered, growing far taller and most likely in a comfortable spot of height, everyone talked and whispered, amazed by the blade he had, the weapon amazing them all.

"Alright... So you wish to retire from the guild?" The woman wondered as Alaric nods,

"Yep... I got someone I wish to spend more time with, especially since I got a nice income coming along." Alaric explained, his schedule practically emptied, ready to bring in some more skills from the university, since Rudeus is said to come back at any minute.

"Didn't you graduate from your classes, though? Why go back?" The woman asked, questioning his motives, as the boy smiled,

"Because why not? I have a second chance, right?" Alaric wondered, before exiting the guild, a stress seemingly releasing from his chest...

Alaric soon walked back, but something else was amist...

"What do you mean your boss isn't here!?!" Suddenly spoke a man with knights beside him, everyone staring in horror, as he was armed.

"T-The boss is VERY busy, s-sir... Y-You'd have to come back some other-"

"Then you better find him NOW. He isn't just going to come and steal MY customers!" The man explained, an owner of some store, as...
