"Daddy, will Eli really be alright. I am scared, 'sob sob sob' daddy must save Eli" Elu looked at Xeols while crying.

Xeols is a little dissatisfied about their reaction in handling their first problem after the apocalypse struck.

[This is what will be, what people scare the most is not the danger that already known instead of the unknown. That's why information is needed to give an appropriate judgement.] Xeols thought while transfer spiritual energy to his daughter body by touching her heart.

"Dear, thanks. I'm very grateful, good night." Lucy said before dragged Elu going out from the room.

"Daddy, thanks. You so powerful, I love you." Elu said in a happy tone after witnessing her father power.

Before Lucy yet close the door, Xeols looked at his wife in a sad expression.

"There no need to pleaded me next time, just tell me will do. I'm the head of this family, if everything happened I will do my best. Good night." Xeols said in a calm voice.

"O…Okay, I will," Lucy said in doubtful before her whole become red.

"Daddy, good night. Bye Bye." Elu said and Lucy closed the door for Xeols.

That night, Xeols was contemplating how long it will take to mend their relationship. He immediately shakes his head before decided to test Eli's power tomorrow. There a way to determine esper power who just recently breakthrough to become rank 1 esper.

After morning sunrise has come, Xeols wake up as usual and make his through the down floor, after the short shower.

Don't think it wrong. All the water that Xeols use is water that comes through the water storage tank. The only unpolluted water left in the house, barely enough for their use less than a few weeks.

"8th of the March 2025 years. Well, six days before the undead make an appearance. Also 'Death Mist' will disappear slowly until it complete disappearance on the surface of the earth." Xeols muttered before making his way to the kitchen.

After the breakfast, Xeols decided the determine the ability about Eli power. He prepares, a cylinder of a glass cup with 3/4 of water inside it.

"Eli, come to daddy." Xeols beckoned Eli and lift her up and sit her up on his heap.

"Hey, what you wanted to do? You just can't casually do that." Mary asked in loud voices.

"Mary, it's okay. Dear, is there something wrong with Eli." Lucy said before asked her husband.

"I just need to determine what power my daughter Eli has after evolved." Xeols said before turning his eyes to look at Eli's eyes.

"What? Eli already evolves, but how?" Lucy asked before she held her daughter hand with a scared expression.

"Daddy, will Eli become stronger like daddy? Elu also wanted power too." Elu asked in hopeful gazed while holding her mother hand.

"Well, of course. Lets daddy identified your sister power first, okay." Xeols said before started to instruct Eli.

Eli put her hand's side by side of the cup without touching it. The water turns to black before she stopped after her father told her to stop.
