[ A/N: I have added Avelia's official art in the AUX chapter: Official Arts of Characters. :) Do check it out. ]

Days passed as Athan, Avelia, and Tiana finally left the CPD and returned to Efyeed.

Since Athan was kind of famous now, those who wanted news on him readily found it that he left the CPD.

Inside Firefan Hill faction's main palace...

Coddys, Ker, and the leader of the Firefan Hill faction were sitting with some other members of the faction.

Coddys suddenly moved and took out a contact card before talking with a person.

After a few seconds, He put the card away and turned to Ker as he stood up, "Sister Ker, let's go. That Athan has returned."

Ker nodded and stood up as she looked at the beautiful red-haired lady who had a slim but perfect body with gorgeous assets and said with a smile, "Liera, then we will meet later."

Leira, the Firefan hill faction leader, smiled as she also stood up and nodded, "Sure thing. If you want to win against me next time, then you better not slack, hehe.

Ker snorted with a smile and said, "I will definitely win next time."

Afterward, both Ker and Coddys left the Firefan hill faction and flew towards Newcomer's Abode.

After reading there, They saw Athan, Tiana, Linci, Avelia, and four Nimpere brothers standing under Efyeed.

"Haha, since I have returned, then I'll make food again," Avelia said as she took out the ingredients and tools from her storage ring. While in CPD, she had gathered a lot of ingredients, and she also found some high-grade ingredients like Venfrost plant, Sealoz sticks, etc.

Athan nodded as he said, "Sure, you all wait here for a moment while I go and meet some guests."

After saying that, He flew out from the barrier field and moved towards Coddys and Ker before lazily speaking, "What do you want? Just so you know, I am very busy, so you only have 1 minute to say whatever you want."

'So arrogant? What the hell...' Ker felt speechless at Athan's attitude, and she knew that he wasn't busy or anything since he was going to have some food to eat.

She felt that fame made Athan arrogant and disapproved of him, "A measly orderic catastrophe, and you are this arrogant? Boy, just because you got some fame doesn't mean you can do anything."

Athan was stunned because he didn't think that he was arrogant. After all...this is how he behaves against everyone except for his friends and family.

He looked at Ker and grinned, "Well, I can do anything I want and...whatever you are here for, you can forget about it."

After saying that, he turned to Coddys and said, "What about you?"

On the other hand, Coddys wryly smiled and shook his head. He knew that Athan behaved this way before he got famous as well.

Hearing the question, Coddys took out a pouch and handed him over to Athan, "I want to meditate under this chaos enlightenment tree for a year, and here's the price you asked for. This pouch contains twenty-five thousand high-grade chaos stones."

Athan took the pouch before speaking with a smile, "Good. But wait here until we finish eating. After that, I will let you enter inside."

After saying that, Athan turned around to leave.

Coddys frowned but seeing that Athan had already taken the pouch, he could only sigh internally and nod.

"Stop!" Ker said loudly as she displayed an angry expression.

Athan turned around and looked at her before saying with a frown, "Stop shouting here. It might disturb my wife who is cooking. Go away."

"Fuck you!" Ker exploded as she cursed and blocked Athan's path.

Coddys facepalmed as he knew that she would explode soon and start with her flagship curse words with her personality.

Athan was stunned as he turned around once again and saw Ker standing in front of him.

But he shook his head with a grin, "Fuck me? Hehe, you are not worthy for that."

"What?!..."Ker was stunned for a moment before she realized what Athan meant by his words and her face red with both anger and embarrassment, "Y-you..."

"What happened, Athan?" Tiana and Linci came out seeing the commotion.

Athan shook his head and said, "Nothing. I was just dealing with a crazy person."

Ker took some deep breaths to calm herself before she said in a cold voice, "Athan! I am here to have a battle of Runic Arts with you."

"Not interested," After dropping these two words, Athan directly flew inside the barrier field with Tiana and Linci.

"Sister Ker, calm down. I haven't known him for long, but he won't waste time on things from which he doesn't get anything. Since he said he is not interested in the fight, then you have to spark his interest regarding it so he will fight." Coddys hurridly said to Ker seeing her angry expression.

Ker stomped her foot in the air angrily before she nodded at coddys and said coldly, "I am leaving for now and will return when Ultiora arrives here."

Coddys could only nod wryly as he also descended and sat down inside one of the open-air pavilions on the hill while waiting for Athan and his gang to finish eating.

...

Avelia cooked a lot of food, and everyone ate and enjoyed the dishes for two hours as they laughed at the stories and jokes said by four Nimpere brothers.

After eating, Tiana, Avelia, and Linci decided to meditate in train while Nimpere brothers went to Newbie Event Palace.

Afterward, Athan called Coddys inside after creating a slight gap in the barrier field in the abyssal darkness barrier field.

"Sit there, inside that border. yes, there." Athan pointed at the other side of the Efyeed before telling Coddys to sit there.

Afterward, Athan said to Efyeed with a grin, "Efyeed, If he tries anything funny, kill him without hesitation. He is not from Chaos Monolith Hills anyway."

Hearing that, Coddys was stunned and speechless as he muttered, "At least, don't say that out loud. Obviously, I am not going to do anything funny since I am just here to get an innate physique."

Efyeed shook slightly as its thoughts passed to others without any symbols forming on its trunk, 'Yes, master. I shall kill him instantly if I feel any malicious intentions from him.'

'Sigh...you are making me nervous.' Coddys sighed and felt like crying, but no tears came out.

'Screw it. I am just going to focus on meditation.' Coddys thought as he closed his eyes without wasting further of his time.
