"Oh stop that drama. Titles are nothing. Let me get my little girl ready to see her new family member already...Oh, that can help." The high priest had many more accomplishments when it came to those he had helped as a healer, priest, and even high priest. An altruistic person was incredibly rare in general. Being able to fully represent that was a challenge many failed at. Even Walker couldn't say that as a true hero title holder he was the very definition of altruistic. Some things he did were not in line with the strict definition.

Seeing that the high priest wasn't even moved by the title spoke volumes. He could only focus on Alice at the moment. "Let's see how this works." The high priest held a hand to Alice's head and a soft glow of healing grew around it. He looked pale but when he stopped Alice started to flutter her eyes. She seemed able to move and was wide awake. She looked around and then felt the connection with the heavenly serpent. She reached out and stood slowly without even a shake.

The sound of crystal cracking was completely drowned out by the small snout of a pearly white serpent breaking through the shell to meet Alice's hand. It was as if they were looking at an exact replica of Onyx when he had hatched. However, the scales were too brilliant and the eyes were slightly golden. Before the small serpent could fall a delicate pair of wings on its back opened. The short fall that could have happened if it was unable to glide became adrift in to Alice's arms. Before it could even move again the heavenly serpent met Alice's eyes and stared in to them.

"Arora, we'll always be together." The name that Alice had chosen came from a book she had read in the library. She had heard of an old system user that could control the rainbow. They would make the light in the starry sky dance for their village and brought many to her village. The purity in her light elemental magic had been enough to cause many songs and stories to be written therefore Alice wanted to pass that on to her new family member.

With Onyx nearby, Alice moved to show him the heavenly serpent. Walker heard them start to introduce the abyssal serpent hatchlings as the heavenly serpent; Arora's siblings. But Walker had moved his focus to the high priest. "If you keep looking at me like that I might need to hide away."

? "That's some title you have there. Should I assume that you used a skill from it just now?" Walker was a little hesitant but also knew that the high priest did not look very well.

"Was it so obvious? It was called the gift of a father. I could pass down half of my mana capacity to her permanently. She might need to grow in to it but it was worth the price. I don't really need it anymore." The nun that had been stopped at the doorway the entire time rushed in at this point and started to try to hand over a potion and start a healing spell for the high priest.

"You know that you are ill. How could you? That can't-"

"And I will be fine. An old man is an old man. A title is nice but it is useless unless I use it right. So what if I shortened my life more? I finally had a gift to give and a moment to spend. I don't need a world to recognize my life. Just those around me." The huffy response was enough to silence the nun but kept Walker's attention. He used his all around appraisal on the high priest again, he had not done so for a long time.

'High priest- (Name cast aside)

This high priest has long since thrown his given name away. Even in their elderly age and deterioration of levels, they have managed to overcome challenges. Responsible for guiding and rescuing countless children from a plague, building orphanages in multiple cities of varying races, and burning their own soul to heal others, this man stands above the others as altruistic. Their love was constant throughout their current lifespan and every being that came in to sight was seen as their child. The true embodiment of the one that deserves the title; altruistic father. Due to the use of a one time use skill; a father's gift, they have sped up the degradation of their level. Using any skills related to healing may prove to be impossible from now on.'

"That was a heavy cost. You might need a few books written about you from what I just read…" Knowing the high priest was something that all of them thought but didn't actually see. The high priest had done much more in his long life than they knew. Guiding children after a plague and rescuing them? How and when? These unspoken events were only seen by the system and those the high priest had helped. To say that Walker was at a loss for words that could explain his emotions was too obvious.

"What? Have you not seen the library in the cathedral? People wrote plenty about him. Just because some fools in the grand cathedral didn't want him to become the next leader doesn't mean his accomplishments were forgotten. Now help me get him back to his room. I swear, you are still the high priest!" The nun was reprimanding the high priest making Walker realize that she had been his assistant here for quite a while. He couldn't even stop to see what Alice and Onyx were planning to do before he was pulled away to help the high priest to rest.

"I'm so proud of her." The high priest whispered beneath his breath but Walker still managed to hear it. Alice would go and see him later. He was sure of that. The high priest had to meet his new family member too after all.
