Human Greed

It was evening time as Aizel and the kids headed towards their inn. The kids ate their dinner in the restaurant and then headed straight to their rooms.

Aizel instructed them to go to their room to sleep. He'll take them to Daisy's shop first thing tomorrow morning. The kids nodded and went back to sleep.

Meanwhile, Aizel returned to his world. He wanted to go to a nice restaurant for dinner.

The first thing he noticed when he returned to his apartment was that Alora was still watching K-dramas.

"Don't you have anything better to do than watch the online series?" Aizel asked while Alora did not even bother to respond.

"I'm going out to dinner; do you want to come?" Just like the magician used the magic words, the word dinner had the same effect on Alora. She stood in front of Aizel, already dressed in a black skirt and with her pink hair tied in a ponytail, her puppy eyes staring at him as if she anticipated that he would take her to dinner.

"Wow, that was fast." Aizel looked at her in surprise. This loli is a real foodie.

"Oye, hurry up and get dressed; I want to eat something nice," Alora spoke with a commanding voice, while Aizel chuckled and went to dress up.

Aizel dressed quickly in a plain black t-shirt and black jeans, a black bomber jacket, and black sneakers.

"Let's go, man in black," Alora said while both of them left the apartment and headed downward.

Aizel called up a taxi, and they were on their way to the rooftop restaurant in a matter of minutes.

When they arrived at the restaurant, they went straight to the rooftop, while some people stared at them. Alora and Aizel ignored everyone's stare as they made their way to their rooftop table.

"I'm going to get ramen with fried chicken. How about you?" Aizel asked Alora while she kept pondering what she should eat.

"I want lasagna." Alora expressed her eagerness to taste the lasagna as her eyes sparkled.

Aizel nodded and gave the order to the waiter while they both enjoyed some red wine until then.

"Do you think mana will reach Earth, Alora?" Aizel inquired because this was the most important thing he needed to know right now.

"Soon," she replied, as Aizel coughed up some red wine and stared at her, dumbfounded.

"What will happen then? Will this world become like Xelgar?"

"I'm not sure; I'm not from this world, so I can't really answer, but one thing is certain," she said while Aizel listened to her carefully.

"When the people of this world are able to learn how to use mana, the true doom will fall upon the world then. Human greed is the worst enemy; it doesn't matter if it's Xelgar or Earth."

Aizel gulped in fear, foreseeing what the people would do once they could use mana. As the apocalypse approaches, crime rates will rise, and the entire government system will be in an uproar.

"When the time comes, the first thing I need to do is teach Dr. Shelly how to use mana and defend herself." Aizel thought while Alora understood what he was thinking and asked.

"What about Irene?"

"She has a boyfriend now. I'm sure he'll keep her safe." Aizel said this while trying to keep his emotions stable.

"Good, you should always remember that you are Aizel."

Aizel looked at her with a confused gaze as Alora said, "You will get to know in time what I mean."

Aizel didn't even consider it for the time being; there are many things he would like to know, but as Alora pointed out, there is still time to learn. Right now, his primary focus is on sharpening his imagination power.

After a few minutes, the food arrived. Alora finally got a taste of the lasagna she wanted to eat and ordered more of it. They spent their evening in peace while eating dinner on the rooftop.

Aizel sipped his wine quietly while gazing at the gorgeous full moon.

"I'm not sure why, but seeing the moon gives me a sense of peace, calm, and love," Aizel whispered while Alora also looked towards the moon while smiling.

They took a taxi back to their apartment after finishing dinner and paying the bill. When they arrived at the apartment, Alora went straight to the TV and resumed watching K-dramas.

Aizel sighed as he changed into more comfortable clothes and went to bed to sleep.
