Narukami retracted his gaze and looked at Tin. Aware of his gaze, Tin assured him as he knew what was in Narukami's mind, "don't worry about what your squad did. I explain to them that your training went slightly overboard." It said a bit sarcastically.

Slightly went overboard? Narukami repeated Tin's words inwardly as he almost let out a chuckle. He recalled his lightning attack could very well kill most people here and possibly destroy Tin to scraps!​​

His mouth silently twitched. 

"Tin, is the Pyro evolution potion available?" As Narukami asked, he noticed the confused look on Aya's face.

"You should know that by consuming a potion. Then one could truly control one's element without any limitations."

Aya nodded.

"After many experiments, humans have finally completed the potion system. We make a system that chains into stable progression paths known as Levels. The higher the number in a Level, the higher the grade of a potion. 

Five major organizations each control at least one complete Level and a few minor Levels outside of the five main elements.

To increase your strength, one had to consume a potion of the corresponding element.

The highest Level is Level 10. I'm a Level five in Electro pathway. Ryu is Level three in Pyro. He's on the edge of breaking through."

"How one could increase their levels?" Aya asked curiously.

"Kill as much as Anomalies as possible. We haven't figure out yet how and why this works but every time you kill one, you will feel a strange feeling in your body." Narukami explained and Tin nodded once in a while

"It's like a game." Aya blurted out.

"Indeed but the curious fellows won't remain calm until they get a clear explanation. 

There are a few theories regarding it and the most supportive and make sense out of them all is that the Anomaly you killed emanating unknown energy that our body reflexively absorbs and needs in order to become stronger." Tin explained in Narukami's stead.

"The higher one's Level is, the danger became obvious and the chance of losing control undoubtedly increased," Tin added.

Aya fell silent as she digested the information she had swallowed. 

Shortly thereafter, she said as she concluded what she understood, "Sorcerers has Levels which showed how much they progress and to level up, one had to kill as much as Anomalies as possible. After which, drink a potion of the next level."

"You learn it faster than most people I know. Most Sorcerers here is brawn than brain." Tin complimented in a relaxed and carefree manner.

Aya retracted her gaze from Tin to Narukami.

"Owner, what is the risk when you consume a potion of the next level?"

Owner? It changed? Narukami quickly noticed the way she called him.

"Crazy ravings, electrocuted that I about to faint, muscles twitching due to the side effects of the potion as my body didn't get used to it and beginning to adapt, my head throbbing as I was on the edge of losing control and last but not least, slowly losing my humanity."

As he spoke, he uncurled his fingers from fist position with a straight face.

At this point, Aya felt sorry and couldn't help but showed her sympathy towards him.

Looking at her worried face, just as he opened his mouth to say a word, Tin said, "You don't have to worry, he has it worse in the past."

You barely know me though but strictly speaking, I believe being tortured by demons in the underworld counts... Narukami added inwardly as he instinctively remembered one of the many events in his past lives.

He was the type that moved on quickly and didn't think much of the past, let alone had a grudge. But, regarding his lost memories, it was another story.

Narukami nodded in agreement with Tin's words.

Tin walked, no, drive away as its continuous track leave some traces on the ground but it quickly disappeared as though erased.

"Talk to me again if you need help." Tin said as it waved its right hand. Narukami watched its back as it drove away.

"Okay."

Just then, Narukami turned around and Aya followed.

As they walked, "do you want to become a Sorcerer?"

Aya momentarily didn't know what to say. After a short pause, she shook her head, "it's dangerous. I simply want my heart back and back to my normal life. I also didn't have to worry about the city as Owner will protect it."

In short, because Aya knew that the city was fine due to the organization and not disturb her normal life. She had reasons to not join become one.

"Supernatural powers are indeed tempting. However, to constantly face madness in exchange, is something I can't face. I was somehow in awe and impressed with Sorcerers.

They could still smile and laughing despite all of that.

Owner, I always run away. Always and always. But, I never thought of giving up."

Her last words contained sorrow. It was something Narukami couldn't understand.

He had some guesses behind her words, such as something happen in the past.

"Regardless, running only a temporary solution. Rather than later, you had to face it sooner. I don't know what's troubling you but don't hesitate to trouble me for assistance." Narukami offered her some help. Not because her beauty interested him.

"Why?" Aya blurted out a question.

"You can see "Him", tell me more reasons why I'm not interested in you."

Those who can see "Him" were either powerful beings who stood at the apex of the world or "He" find them interesting.

"He?"

"The figure you saw in your dream. "He" is the most powerful god," Narukami said to clear her confusion.

"Have you seen "Him" before, Owner?"

Aya somewhat couldn't believe what she saw in her dream was a god and she even told himself that Narukami was lying.

However, he had no reason to do so.

Narukami looked around and confirming his surroundings were only a few people, he whispered.

"I meet "Him" a few times. Usually, ordinary mortal can't see "Him" directly via any means unless "He" wills it."

Meet "Him" a few times… She recited in shock and eyes slightly agape. She was slightly in a daze. 

She snapped to reality in the next moment, "is this mean "He" interested in me?" She asked, somehow couldn't believe in such development. 

At this point, only one thought appeared in her mind.
