Since Elise was incapable of taking care of little Alexei, Dante would be the one who took over the role of a parent while he was handling her recovery and that of the baby.
It was a task that the bachelor god was very ill-equipped for.
What were the powers of time when a baby could cry so hard, enough that thunderstorms started coming around Dante's secluded mountain? You couldn't actually even try to speed up the baby's growth either.
It was difficult, but secretly, Dante actually liked taking care of the baby. At first, the Time Master thought Alexei was taking too much time, but he didn't despise the baby at all as much as he thought he would.
Instead, the Time Master actually relished and loved the baby as much as if it was his own child. There was something good to be found in the child and it wasn't just because he was the son of Elise.
