"And you four," Athan turned to Lily, Mini, Huarin, and Dreevindo, "you will not come with me."

"Boohoo, why brother Athan?" Mimi said with a pout, "I want to go on a journey with you and meet sister Avelia. I-"

"Mimi," Athan shook his head as he patted Mimi's head, "I am not powerful enough to protect you yet. But once I become the strongest, we can roam anywhere we want without the care in the world."

Lily's fists were tightly clenched. She dug her nails into her palms as blood came out, but she didn't realize that because it was her helplessness and frustration causing her to do that subconsciously.

"All the best, Athan. I hope you return quickly," Lily said with a smile before she started walking towards the exit of the backyard.

"Where are you going?" Athan asked.

"Isn't it obvious?" Lily turned around and said with a smile, "I am going to train."

"I will give you all the soul boost and vitality essence after coming back," Athan said with a nod.

...

As such, Lily, Mimi, Huarin, and Dreevindo stayed back.

All four of them doubled focus on the training.

Inside Komin's flying ship, Athan, Komin, Lienia, and Cromwer were sitting on couches.

"Komin, tell your subordinate to provide all the necessary resources to them," Athan said, "I will pay for it."

"You got very good companions, Athan," Cromwer said with a smile, "I hope you never lose them like I did mine."

Athan looked at Cromwer and sighed, "sorry for your loss."

Cromwer shook his head as a melancholic expression appeared on his face, "it's been many years, but I still miss them dearly. Sometimes, I can't help but think how good it would be if they were with me."

Komin and Lienia's expressions also changed as they remembered something and sighed.

Komin then took out a comm crystal and instructed his subordinates to provide resources to Lily and others.

"Master, good news!"

Suddenly, Primo, Taezin, and Pixilote came out from the void region with excited expressions.

"What?" Athan asked as he raised his eyebrows.

But suddenly, he was startled as he felt something and closed his eyes.

"Haha, you felt it right, Master?"

Athan nodded as he stood up, walked ten meters away, and sat down on a mattress before focusing.

On the other hand, Primo, Taezin, and Pixilote made themselves comfortable on the couches.

"What happened, Cuties?" Lienia asked as she stood up from her couch and sat down between Pixilote and Primo on the couch before hugging them into her bosom.

"Nyaa! Don't hug me like that, woman!" Primo hissed.

"Fine, fine," Lienia said as she smiled and started patting both of them.

"Ummm, I don't like it," Pixilote said with a slight blush as she flew away and sat beside Taezin.

"Primo, stupid cat," Taezin snorted as he saw Primo enjoying itself from Lienia's caressing.

"Just say that your butt is burning, monkey," Primo said without opening his eyes.

"Hahaha, These voidlings are really cute and funny," Cromwer said with a laugh, "I also want one."

"Stop dreaming in broad day," Taezin sneered, "only our Master, Athan, can have voidlings like us."

"So, what is the good news?" Komin asked with curiosity.

"Hehe, the good news is that...," Pixilote said with a giggle, "more voidlings are coming!"

"Wait, what?" Lienia, Komin, and Cromwer were startled.

"More voidlings, like you three?" Komin asked with a stunned expression.

"But surely, they wouldn't be as powerful as you three, right?" Cromwer asked with a laugh.

However, he saw two gazes looking at him. He turned to look at Lienia and Komin as he saw them giving him a serious look.

"Eh? No way, right?" Cromwer's lips twitched as he spoke.

"Muwahahahaha," Taezin laughed loudly and spoke, "all voidlings are on the same level as Master! Which means the voidlings coming will be as strong as us."

"Nyaa! Indeed," Primo nodded with a satisfied expression, "scratch my butt as well. It's itchy."

After saying that, Primo flipped and lay on his belly.

"Naughty cat," Lienia slapped Primo's butt with a speechless expression but still caressed the back-to-tail part as she knew that cats like that.

"You said voidlings...," Komin muttered before he looked at them and asked, "how many voidlings are coming?"

"Eh, I don't know. Maybe five, ten?" Taezin said.

"Cough...cough...," Komin patted his chest after coughing, "five to ten? What the hell?"

Taezin looked at him with an annoying expression and spoke, "why are you so surprised old man? Master has exactly seventy-nine voidlings."

This time, Lienia, Komin, and Cromwer's jaws literally dropped to the floor.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait....stop, pause," Lienia said as she remembered something and asked, "that thing about your powers being suppressed. That was a lie, right?"

"Of course not, idiot," Taezin snorted, "we are Fear-plane beings by birth. But some annoyi- cough...I mean, a lady suppressed our powers."

Pixilote slapped Taezin with her wings and smacked him off the couch as the monkey flew several meters away, "monkey!!! You are speaking too much."

Taezin scratched his head and laughed weakly, "what? It's fine. They can't do shit to us."

Pixilote rolled her eyes while Lienia, Komin, and Cromwer wryly smiled, "you are really one annoying monkey."

"That's me, Taezin," Taezin nodded as he sat back on the couch like an emperor, "now serve me some food."

Suddenly, several powerful presences appeared in the ship's hall.

*Swooosh...*

"Oooo...Ooooooo....," Taezin started jumping with pain expression as his tail was on fire, "YOU...Infy!!! Stop it right now!"

"Hehehe, you are as arrogant as always, monkey. It looks like I'll have to burn your tail again," A voice reverberated from the crimson flame with black sparks on Taezin's tail.

"OOoooo....YOU...if you don't stop right now, then I will team up with Netherfrost Monarch and beat you up! Don't take advantage of me just because I can't beat you!" Taezin snarled angrily.

Athan opened his eyes as he was also excited to meet his other true voidlings.
