Homeland Security Ministry's cafeteria
"Ma'am!"
Madame Le Pen turned around and saw Sebastian walking towards her.
"I was trying to find you in your study, turned out you were here." said Sebastian, "I have something to ask."
"What is it?" Madame Le Pen asked.
Sebastian sat down opposite to Madame Minister and said:
"Well, I was cleaning the archive of the Ministry, and I found out about a top game being banned in this country. I just want to find out more about the incident. I'm just curious about why such a simple game is banned in this country."
"Honestly, I don't know much about this either." said Madame Le Pen before she raised her cup of coffee up sipped a little bit.
"Even though I was a close associate of both former Minister Hollbard and former Minister Hebner, I wasn't told much. All I can say is that what happened related to that prohibition is strictly between Mr. President and the two former Ministers."
"Thank you, Ma'am!" Sebastian said and stood up, ready to leave the cafeteria.
"Sebastian, if the President wants the details of this prohibition to stay between himself and the two former Ministers, even if this prohibition does not belong to the Secret Archive, you M-U-S-T---N-O-T defile his will and involve yourself deeper. Understand?"
"Understood, Ma'am!" Sebastian said before he turned around and left.

The moment Alexy touched the Cryo Vision hung on Kaeya's hip, it lighted up with light blue radiance and the symbol of Cryo element.

"Wait, why is there light blue light on his chest?" Amber noticed some light blue light appearing under Alexy's shirt.
"What?!" Alexy looked down hurriedly took out something he wore under his shirt. It was a cross pendant with a beautiful jade engraved on it. The jade was emitting icy blue light.
"What is this?" Paimon asked.
"This cross pendant...was given to me by my grandma. She is a religious person and she believes God's protection and blessing will be always with me if I wear this. Even though my dad is skeptical of religious stuff, and my mom follows him, but they had me and Ivan baptized when we were babies. Once I want to take it off, but my grandma persuaded me to promise her to never take it off."
(But strange, I have never see the colorless jade light up with color before.)
"Klee prays that your God will protect you, Brother Alexy!"
"Thanks, Klee!"
"Interesting...when you have the time, remember to tell us stories about this God of your world." said Kaeya.
"Ummmm...I don't know if I can do that because my dad raises me and Ivan irreligiously."
"Oh, I don't think that's bad though." said Kaeya.
"I personally don't think so." Alexy replied.
And then there was silence.
"Anyway, let's start training using the Vision power. You are in here because of this, right, Alexy?" Paimon broke the silence by reminding Alexy what he was supposed to do.
"Ah yea, I nearly forgot!"
Kaeya took out a 1* sword, Dull Blade and threw it to Alexy.
"Well then, my Vision's power does involve using a sword. So its better for you to learn to fight with a sword first." said Kaeya.
"Oh, ok!"
Suddenly, Kaeya sprinted towards Alexy, swinging his Harbinger of Dawn at Alexy. Alexy only had enough time to raise his Dull Blade up to prevent the Harbinger of Dawn from slashing him.
"Wait, Kaeya! Isn't this too..." Paimon tried to intervene.
"He chose to train with me. I'm the teacher, so my rule." Kaeya replied.
"Hey guys, stop him! This is too harsh for Alexy!" Paimon turned around and said to the others.
"It's OK, Paimon. I think...I can handle this." Alexy said.
"Don't be distracted!" Kaeya said and swung his sword again. This time, the Dull Blade in Alexy's hand was sent flying.
"*Yawn*...I will return to the library!"
"Then I'll go make new bombs!"
"Oh, I think I should make some drink for Master Alexy!"
"I better go prepare for the gliding training. Alexy will need it."
And the four hurriedly left the place.
"..." Paimon was speechless. She remained the only on to stay and watch the training.

Meanwhile, in somewhere that could be considered the upstairs of the system's dimension
There were a boy in green sitting with a young man in black. The boy has teal eyes and his two ponytails were shining with teal light, indicating that he is imbued with the power of Anemo. The man's eyes are of amber color and filled with wisdom, the kind that someone who has lived so long acquires, the end of his ponytail was also shining with amber color, indicating that he is imbued with the power of Geo.
"Hey, Morax, that boy is a rich kid, his father is a general. How about asking him some money to buy...you know, wine and drink together? Oh maybe his father has his own liquor collection, I really want to have a taste!"
Morax raised his tea cup and took a sip without saying anything.
"Uh, anyone with me?"
The boy turned around and looked at 5 other persons that also sat with them. They could not be seen clearly, but anyone could see the colors of purple, green, blue, red, and icy blue come from their eyes.
"We will not make the same mistake twice, we must test this child carefully, even if he was chosen by 'Him'!" said the woman with icy blue eyes, she straight out ignoring the boy.
"We need more observation." said the man with green eyes. And the others seemed to agree with him.
(Why are you guys ignoring me?) Venti thought and made a "humph" face.

"Aiya, isn't that man's...skill similar to this?" Prof. Ueda said after he had just watched the video recorded at the site of the fight with the mutated crocodile and the Geo Hypotasis.
He then took out the Cryo Abyss Mage's staff he had gotten his hand on. He activated it and began comparing the elemental skill of Kaeya with the ice from the Cryo Abyss Mage.
"Hmmm...interesting! I need to meet those weird people...guess I have leave this lab."

Somewhere the the large universe, where used to be called the Spiral Abyss
Floor 12, chamber 3
"ROAR!"
The two matured Geovishaps fell down and died.
(Fighting with these guys has become boring!) Aether thought before he looked up and saw the sky.
(That peacock...Pavo Ocellus...it seems brighter than usual...Kaeya, he's...)
