Raijah, Teo, Val, and Cora all emerged out of a mirror in the forest.
In front of them stood Hashira and Aziel.
All four of them had injuries and were exhausted from their fights.
Raijah was bleeding from multiple parts of his body and, Val, Cora, and Teo had their backs stained with blood.
"You guys look terrible," Aziel said, "let's go home. We have a lot to discuss."
"First," Hashira said, "I'll heal them. I know you don't want your house stained with blood."
Hashira tapped each of them on the forehead and, Val, Cora, and Teo's injuries disappeared.
Raijah's injuries were also healed. However, his body was still healing his missing internal body parts naturally.
"Your healing powers are even better than an elite's," Hashira observed, "my ririsu only allows me to heal external injuries but, I can sense that your body is taking care of your internal injuries just fine."
Aziel spun his scythe and, a mirror appeared below them.
They emerged in Aziel's living room and, Aziel motioned for everyone to have a seat.
"First," Aziel said, "I'd like to know more about our new addition."
Everyone looked towards Teo, who sat on the couch beside Raijah.
"Well," Teo said, "my name is Teo and, I'm a devil."
Teo explained everything he told Raijah to the others and, Hashira and Aziel introduced themselves to him.
After the explanations, Aziel whispered, "so, he's a devil. That's probably why his prana is so similar to that man's."
Hashira whispered to Aziel, "tell them about David."
"Not now," Aziel replied, "I don't want to frighten them too much. If all goes well and David doesn't attack, I'll tell them after training."
"You cannot keep delaying it," Hashira whispered back, "if you do not tell them after their training, I will do it instead."
Aziel nodded his head and, Hashira spoke to the group.
"Alright," Hashira picked up, "now that we all know about each other, let's get straight to the point."
"Raijah," Hashira explained, "there are many powerful people after you and that divine prana you possess. Now that the government is aware of you, I'd bet they're already searching Avalon. Once they get your wanted posters up, they will continue to spread around the world, and soon everyone will be aware of you. And Teo, when they find out about you and your devil prana, there's no doubt in my mind people will start coming after you as well."
"Cora, you have the entire Kaijo palace searching for you too. With all these threats, it is no longer safe for us to train in Avalon."
"There will be a time where you will have to fight people Aziel, and I cannot defeat. In preparation for that day, we have decided to train all of you."
Aziel spun his scythe and, a mirror teleported them into a bright room with countless books on shelves and tables with files and information.
As they appeared in the room, the students all looked around in awe.
"This will be the planet we'll train on," Hashira explained, "it's uninhabited."
Hashira continued his explanation, "Aziel's parents were people who studied the devils. They left countless records of information and, all of them are in this room. Using that information, we will teach Teo how to control his true devil prana and, due to divine and devil prana being similar, we can also teach Raijah how to use his true divine prana. But, before that, you both need to work on your signature prana."
"As for Cora and Val, we will teach you guys how to better control your signature prana and, we will attempt to unlock your ririsu. Although I do not think we have enough time, we will try our best."
"How long will we be training for?" Cora asked.
"Two years," Hashira replied, "I plan on going to the Shi Mountains after those years pass."
"Can I come too?" Val asked, "I'd like to see what it's like now."
"I want to go too," Raijah said, "I learned Doragonken but, I've never been to its birthplace."
"Then I'll go too," Cora added.
"I guess I will too," Teo said.
"Then it's settled," Aziel announced, "we will train for two years and, then we will all go to the Shi Mountains."
"Are you guys ready to begin?" Hashira asked.
"Yes," Teo said quickly, "I want to become strong enough to go back to hell and learn about my past."
"I'm also ready," Cora said, "I want to get strong enough to become the new queen of Kaijo and change the royals for the better."
"Me too," Val added, "I want to become strong enough to live up to the expectations of the Shi Family and surpass Aziel and grandpa."
"I'm not ready," Raijah said.
Everyone turned towards him with confused expressions on their faces.
"I need to tell Sean," Raijah explained, "then I'll be ready."
"That's fine," Aziel said as he spun his scythe, "causing a mirror to appear below them."
Back at the castle, the king yelled at the captain.
"What took you so long? You let him get away!"
The captain ignored him and said, "didn't you say that boy was a demon?"
"Yes," the king replied.
"He is a demon," the queen added.
"Then why did I sense divine prana coming from him?" the captain wondered.
"I don't know!" the king shouted, "maybe he's some sort of heavenly demon!"
"That's a good nickname," the captain remarked, "I'll have wanted posters put up all over. We will find him even if he is out of the country."
"Does anyone know the boy's real name?" the captain asked.
"Raijah," one of the guards on the floor muttered, "I heard his friends call him that."
"Do you guys happen to have a picture of him?" the captain questioned.
"We have cameras all over the castle," the king said as he pointed up at a concealed golden camera, "you can get a picture from the videotape."
"Very well," the captain said in a determined tone, "we will find you. Raijah, the heavenly demon."
Outside the castle, Gio opened his eyes to Rome and Kan above him.
All three of them had sustained significant injuries from their battles.
Rome and Kan helped Gio stand up and, Gio said, "we were all beaten by kids."
"I'm fine with it," Rome said with a smile, "that boy gave me new hope and taught me a valuable lesson."
Rome looked up with enough enthusiasm to suggest that he was looking into the heavens.
"Regardless of what society titles you, that does not truly define you and what you will become in life."
Although he was injured, Rome let out a smile of relief.
"Fate isn't something that's absolute. You are in control of your life; it is not in control of you."
Sergio looked down at Koji, who was lying in a bed.
"I hope this was the right choice," Sergio said, "I joined him because I'll be able to defeat him from the inside. If I attack now, he'll just use that stupid ability to switch with Koji or someone else that I care about."
"If we train with him," Sergio added, "Koji and I can both become stronger. I'll get Koji on the same page as me and, we'll destroy David."
Sergio looked down at his brother, "I'll keep you two safe," he whispered, "you and Cora."
Raijah and the others stopped at Sean's front door.
"We'll wait out here for you," Cora said with a smile, "go talk to him."
Raijah opened the door and walked towards the living room, where Sean was reading.
Sean saw Raijah walk in.
"How have you been," Sean asked as Raijah joined him on the couch.
"It's been crazy," Raijah said.
Raijah filled him in on everything that had happened.
"Seems like you've had quite the adventure in just a few days," Sean said, "so how long will your training be."
"Two years," Raijah answered, "I'll come and see you after. I promise."
"You're growing up fast," Sean said, "since you're currently sixteen, after your training, you'll be eighteen."
Raijah nodded his head, "it doesn't feel real. Just a couple of days ago, I was living a somewhat normal life."
"Alright," Sean said, "let's not keep your friends waiting."
Sean hugged Raijah and patted him on the back.
Raijah walked towards the door and turned around.
"Go on," Sean said encouragingly, "I'll see you soon, Raijah."
"Stay safe," Raijah said.
"I will," Sean replied.
Raijah walked out of the house and looked at his friends and teachers.
"Alright!" Raijah exclaimed, "let's go get stronger!"
A mirror appeared below them, and with his friends, Raijah began a new part of his life.
As they disappeared, a man walked towards a wall across the street, and he slapped a sheet of paper on it.
He taped the paper to the wall and walked away.
It was a close-up picture of a brown-skinned boy with dreadlocks and red eyes.
Above the picture, it said, "Wanted. Dead or Alive."
Below the picture, it read, "Raijah, the heavenly demon."
"Reward: 1,000,000 in gold."
