Chapter 49

(A/N: I have been feeling extremely sick these past few days. I couldn't get on my computer, much less write. So I don't know when I will be able to upload another chapter for you guys. The plan is that I will continue writing after I get better. Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy this chapter.)

"25%? The progress is pretty slow considering that Zarxis was one of the stronger gods." Seal frowned at the progress.

Alongside that, when the percentage reaches 25%, another Authority has been unlocked. He concluded that with every 25%, there would be a new Authority.

The Space Authority. It lets you interfere with anything related to or in space. Though, unlike space magic, Space Authority ignores the difference in strength. What does that mean? It meant that regardless of his opponent's strength in controlling space, whether strong or weak, he would always be the dominant one.

Aside from those two things that changed, everything else was normal.

"I should target a stronger god if I want to increase my energy faster." Seal muttered.

Suddenly, he felt a hand pulling his shirt.

He looked down and found Elenor staring at him.

"Your hand. It stopped moving." Elenor pouted.

"I'm sorry." Seal said with a smile before continuing stroking Elenor's head.

"Mmh," Elenor purred and closed her eyes in bliss.

"So, what have you, Alice, and Yukina been up to?"

"Just some meetings with other kingdoms. They're quite troublesome, I'd say."

"Oh, speaking of which, there is a ball a week from now in the Velos Kingdom. Would you mind coming along with us?" Elenor said expectantly while staring into Seal's eyes.

"Sure thing. Also, next time, you don't have to be reserved. I'm always free for you guys." Seal smiled and gave Elenor a quick kiss on the lips.

"Let's do it again?" Elenor suggested while moving her hands down to Seal's pants.

"Haha," Seal chuckled before pushing Elenor onto the bed and starting another set of workout activities.

...

A week passed by in a blink of an eye, and nothing interesting happened.

The Hero of Light, Reiji, recovered from the Dark Knight's attack, but a scar was left on his chest. This caused Sahoko to be extremely resentful towards the Dark Knight.

Aside from that, there was an encounter between the Goddess of Victory, Rena, and The Dark Knight, Kuroki, inside Rena's temple. There wasn't really much that led to that event.

Kuroki found out that Rena was deceiving his childhood friend, Shirone. This made him angry, and he wanted to confront the goddess about it.

Goddess Rena truthfully admitted it, and Kuroki destroys the summoning tools that were going to be used to send the heroes to a random world in the infinite multiverse. That's that.

Kuna never got created, and the fight between Kuroki and the Hero's Party at the Holy Dragon cave never happened. It ticked him off because it was the only show that Seal was looking forward to last week.

This missing event led to Shirone not knowing that the Dark Knight was her childhood friend.

The only things that Seal enjoyed were going shopping and having fun with his family last week. By doing that, a week passed by before they even knew it.

Now, they were preparing to go to the Kingdom of Velos for the Ball of Velos.

"You look better in this suit!" Elenor exclaimed excitedly.

The suit that Elenor was talking about was a custom tuxedo made by Yukina not too long ago. Her design was simple yet beautiful. There was a continuous line of fabric running from lapel to collar and lapel. It only ended when it reached the buttoned area. There was also a bow tie instead of a necktie.

"You look even more handsome now," Yukina said while adjusting Seal's tuxedo.

"You look stunningly beautiful as well. Seal smiles before pulling Yukina in for a kiss.

"Mouu!" Elenor pouted.

"Haha. I didn't forget about you." Seal chuckled before kissing Elenor.

"Mmmm." Elenor let out a happy sound.

"Should we get going?" Seal said after 5 minutes of kissing both of them.

"Okay!" Both of them replied.

...

"Shirone! Chiyuki! Are you guys ready?" Kyouka said.

"Yeah!" Both of them answered.

"Reiji is coming, right?" Sahoko asked.

"Yep, he is."

"Okay! Let's go to the Kingdom of Velos!"

...

"Diehart-dono, will you be alright at the Kingdom of Velos?" Modes couldn't help but ask.

"I am sure I will be fine," Kuroki answered.

"Diehart-sama, can you bring me as well?" A voice interrupted them.

"Eh? Regena, why do you want to come as well?" Kuroki asked the woman who interrupted them.

"Staying in this palace made me a bit bored, you see..." Regena said with an embarrassed tone.

"I see. Modes-sama, can I bring her along?"

"O-Oh! Of course!" Modes said stutteringly. After learning that Regena was brought here by that person, he immediately allowed Regena to live in the palace. He didn't dare to do anything bad to her in fear of angering that person.

"Okay. Regena, please get ready." Kuroki said.

"Yes." Regena nodded before leaving.

After a few minutes, Regena came out wearing a beautiful dress.

"Let's go!" Kuroki said before getting on the dragon with Regena and leaving.

...

"We're here!" Alice said excitedly.

"I've never seen Alice this excited before." Elenor chuckled.

"Big sister, don't tell me you're not excited as well. We are going to get to dance with big brother!"

"Don't cause trouble, Alice." Seal said while stroking Alice's head fondly.

"Alice! is that you?!" A voice suddenly interrupted them. There was Kyouka and her friends.

"Oh! Kyouka." Alice went toward the person and hugged her."

"Who is thi- YOU?!?!" Kyouka wanted to ask who the person beside Alice was when she recognized him. It was the person who bullied her!
