Arthur walked back to class and took his seat calmly without saying a word. The class was now bustling as the numerous students began to gist and chat as they waited for the next teacher. Arthur didn't draw again, he simply sat back to watch how the class went without paying much attention to what was actually going on. After a while, he shut his eyes and began to cultivate his Qi. "If I can manage raising my Qi and strengthening my body to a certain level before going home, I would try training with mother again." Arthur frowned as soon as the thought crossed his mind. —— "All done." Celicia tossed the pieces of metal into the trashcan, dusted her hands then turned back to face the door, "I'll call someone to fix the door soon, I can not leave it like this for long." Celicia shook her head, then went to grab her phone which she'd dropped on a bench she'd carried outside to sit on. After picking up the phone, she double taps to wake, then after clicking the dialer applicati

The school closed without anything much going on, and Arthur waited by the gate for Lilith after he had exited his class. He didn't even bother with the poor guy called Jacob as he had not won fair and square. If he'd not used such an underhanded twist of his own rules, then he would have dragged out that battle for a longer time than what was required. Despite this, they still managed to close everything in time. "I should be able to take one or two hits from mother like this — maybe she can help me train the [TK TK TK] skill and advise me on a stable path to choose in sync with the Destroyer path." Arthur thought with a frown on his face as he bowed his head. While he was busy dissecting the issue in his head, a second thought flew right over his head again, and his eyes narrowed down to slits as he descended deeper in his thoughts, "Should I really let Lilith come over again? Leaving a fact that the others would begin getting the wrong idea aside, I should think more on if it'

"Something seems a bit off about this door, doesn't it Lilith?" Arthur scrutinized the door with a frown on his face, sizing it up and scanning it in search for a single malfunction before sighing deeply. "Huh? You must be hallucinating, just knock already and let's get inside." Lilith rolled her eyes at Arthur's sudden ‘paranoia’ before walking up to the door and knocking on it by herself, "See? Nothing happened." "It's not about anything happening, I just feel strange looking at the door. It's as if someone had tampered with it…" Arthur wondered out loud as he stepped in after Lilith, then shrugged off the thoughts. "Ah, you're both back again." Celicia had a wide smile on her face as she stepped outside the kitchen just to greet the two. After she'd done that, she went back to work and completely ignored them. "Mom, did anything happen while we were away? You didn't break down the door by accident did you?" His eyes gleamed the second the noticed his mother was consciously

"You want to spar before going to school? You've got everything in place already, and eaten?" Celicia had a frowned on her face as she sized up her son, doubtful about what he had said to her. "Yes!" Arthur nodded as he took off his bag and gave it to Lilith who just watched silently, then cracked his neck and waved his head, "Should we take it outside or is it okay for us to—" Suddenly, all the hair on his body to stand on end as he raised his hand to shield his face without a second of time wasted talking. He focused all his Qi on his arms and braced himself. “Boom!” Arthur's eyes widened as he caught the sudden kick from his mother, causing his back to hunch over and his eyes to widen as the air in his lungs was knocked out! As soon as he'd blocked it, he dashed away. Celicia lowered her leg, then cracked her neck with a smile on her face, "You blocked it? Interesting. I can manage in here, as far as we both avoid the furniture." Just as she'd spoken, Celicia disappear

"Our squad hasn't been legalized yet for starters, and we don't even have a name. We have no backing, zero funds and very little manpower." Arthur smirked as he continued to speak with a glint in his eyes, "We should only see this event as nothing more than a mere promotion, an avenue to attract both finding and manpower to out new guild. This means that all the responsibility of attracting attention falls on the human members of this squad." Everyone stared at Arthur with their eyes narrowed and lips sealed. They didn't say a word until asked to speak, and neither of them made any provocative or unwanted moves during his speech. "Hmm, we should apply for legalization soon. Maybe I can go later with you to do that in the Main Star Hub a few metres away from the main building." Felicia said with a serious expression on her face. "I see. We should do that immediately after school is closed so that our verification process can end in just a few days away from today." Arthur held his
