"While we are on the topic, I am really curious why you are called the Child of Gaia? Is there something like a requirement?" Whiz asked Adrian but everyone took interest as well.
"What comes to your mind when the name Gaia is spoken?" Adrian asked them before answering.
"From the legends or myths told since ancient times, the Titan Gaia is what comes to mind. Does that mean that the titans were real!" Whiz stated in an excited tone as he loves discovering new things.
"Calm your horses down. Child of Gaia is a title bestowed to the strongest empath and not easily given to anyone as there is only one for each generation. (Although it is only me every generation.)" Adrian stated but thought of the last sentence on his mind or else Joe might strangle him.
"The Gaia in my title is not the titan but actually the life of this world. The planet itself is alive after all. Jihan probably knows this since he is from a prestigious family of martial artists." Adrian added.
"How do you know about this?" Esme asked as she knows that Adrian just entered their crazy world.
"You can say that we inherit some memories from the past Child of Gaias. When my abilities started manifesting, I already started to get dreams about people and places that I do not know of." Adrian stated truthfully despite not being the whole truth.
"So, you have something like past lives…awesome! And this world is actually alive that is even cooler than my dream of creating a robot." Whiz stated with great enthusiasm.
"I do know that the world is considered 'alive' but even I thought it was farfetched at the time. If the world is literally alive then that would mean it has a soul." Jihan stated with a bit of a chuckle.
"Oh! Come on. Pssh! The world does not really have a soul, right? I mean it is something like the plants, right? They are alive but not really 'alive'." Esme stated with a tone of disbelief, but Adrian has a serious expression.
"The world is alive like a human being. And do not mistake when I tell you this but eve the plants are alive. All of them have souls. Humans are just not well-versed in hearing what they can say. Majority of the humans anyway." Adrian stated in a serious tone that carried depth which made the others gulp.
For a moment, the whole group felt that they are in the presence of someone greater than them as Adrian radiated this unexplainable aura. They felt like they looked at a powerful being that could erase them from existence.
"I guess this powerful being would like to move his things by himself." Dustan stated as he patted Adrian's back with a bit of strength.
[You have arrived at your destination.]
The automatic driver that is built inside the aircraft announced to everyone. They immediately opened the hatch and went out of the aircraft. They looked tired as if they came home after a long day of work.
"We need to talk." Joe stated as he waited for Adrian to go down the aircraft.
"Yeah. Can that wait for a bit? I still need to move the stuff that I bought?" Adrian replied as he dismissed Joe's instruction.
"Now!" Joe stated in a language only Adrian could understand which is the tongue of angels.
"Fine but you need to tell the others to load my stuff outside of my room." Adrian retorted as he is not on to be intimidated.
"Why don't you guys help with his things? We shall have a meeting later after I am done talking with the guilty." Joe stated as he walked away with Adrian following him.
"Why is Joe mad?" Whiz asked as he started to pick up a few of Adrian's shopping items.
"He probably bought something very expensive." Jihan commented as he looked at Dustan.
"I do not know as I did not really check the prices of the items that he bought. I am not sure if that is even the case. Did you understand what Joe said to Adrian that made the pompous guy agree?" Dustan stated.
"Did he not say 'Shuba'?" Whiz stated.
"I think I heard 'Vita'." Jihan added.
"Is it just me or why do I feel like the two of them are hiding something?" Esme suggested.
"Do not tell me that Adrian is actually Joe's hidden child? I mean a guy would not really be celibate even if he is immortal." Whiz joked but even Dustan also felt that the two are hiding something.
"Enough about that, just carry the things." Esme stated as she started to walk off.
"And why are you not helping?" Jihan rebuked.
"I need my beauty sleep and I do not do grunt work. So, bye!" Esme stated as she scurried away.

"Why do you seem irritated with me?" Adrian asked in a nonchalant face as he knows that all angels do not like the light bringer.
"Since we are already in my office, I need to ask you something important. Did you teach the humans about this so-called magic?" Joe asked.
"Why did the lunch lady goddess that is helping you tell you that?" Adrian asked in a cheeky manner.
"Just tell me because you did something unnecessary that impacted the way that this world is advancing." Joe stated but Adrian once again became serious.
"Do you think that I taught the humans magic because I was bored? If that is what you are thinking, then yes." Adrian replied.
"Do you really not think of what you are doing to this world? This world already has superpowered individuals and you added a mystic art into the mix? Do not tell me that you used the heavenly laws in order to create the basis for magic in this world. It is different from the magic of other dimension." Joe berated as Adrian just stood there unentertained.
"Are you done? Then let me say my piece. YOU WERE NOT HERE WHEN THE OLD GODS INVADED! YOU DO NOT HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BERATE ME. I WAS BORN BEFORE YOU. KNOW YOUR PLACE!" Adrian stated as his aura flared up and even made Joe back down.
