"Hey, Mom, it's okay. I won't say those words again," Kael said.
Sephina crossed her arms, staring at him with an unyielding gaze.
"You're lying," she said flatly.
Kael sighed.
"I'm not!" He knew he couldn't win against her intuition.
As silence fell between them, Kael decided to change the subject.
With the academy closed for the month, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to focus on something constructive.
"Mom, can you teach me some of your powerful skills?" he asked.
Sephina's expression softened.
"Of course. Why not?"
Kael nodded. "Let's go then!"
Sephina would not teach him as he was injured but after checking his condition she didn't denied.
Kael condition was at utmost form.

The lush green expanse of Sephina's private island served as the perfect training ground.
Amelia stood in the distance, her arms crossed as she observed the mother and son duo with a curious smile.
