Sebastian's warning Tips about Villains:
Tip 1: Never mess with a Villain.
Tip 2: Never underestimate the power and strength of a Villain.
Tip 3: Do not play hero to an overpowered villain.
Tip 4: Never look down on a villain's power, whether or not he looks weak.

Sebastian walked through the dark streets, his eyes, cold as ever.
"I can't imagine I'm playing with My Lord's appearance. Can I act exactly like him? What is his attitude like?"
Although thoroughly confused, he had to keep his composure.
"Is this how My Lord feels when he tries to act like Dravil? Oh, this is going to be a terrible experience. At least it is just for a night."
Finally, he reached his destination, Mrs Carolyn's house.
"Here comes the most horrible part of my life!" He pushed open the door. "I'm back-"
"Great! Welcome!" Eden smiled widely.
"Yes, you always run off, only to come back later!" Lucas added.
'What is this? My Lord never told me that he had friends? Worse, Two!' Sebastian said within his heart, eyes twitching than never before.
"Are you alright? What happened?" Mrs Carolyn asked, while cleaning some glasses on the table.
"......" Sebastian could not speak. He looked at them, with his eyes twitching.
"Oh, looks like you are h-"
"No, I'm not hungry. And Mrs Carolyn, everything went smoothly" Sebastian smiled, something he had never done.
'Curse this mission'
"Okay, I think it will be now we take our leave" Eden bowed respectfully to Carolyn. "Thanks a lot for everything."
"I should be thanking you," she said, "If not for you, I don't think I would have been this much better. The accompany you gave me, takes my memory back to my happy old days. Thank you."
Sebastian stepped forward, handing over to her a bottle of perfume, "Here is a gift from all of us."
Carolyn took the bottle, her eyes wide open, "The petals of the Nightlight. Where did you find it? This will only grow in hell!"
Eden and Lucas exchanged glares, before setting their eyes on Sebastian.
'This is not good!'
"Well, I got it from a wizard friend who happened to be passing by Elaskor. He offered me this perfume, after lots of broken promises as a means of compensation." Sebastian said, without a hint of fear or shock in his expression.
"Well, thanks alot for handing it over to me. Although a magical flower, its healing ability is really impressive."
"We are happy to help!" Eden again smiled. Using a hand sign, he opened a portal, "We hope to see you again!"
"Me as well!."
Bidding goodbye, Eden, Lucas and Sebastian all walked away.
"Hey," Carolyn called onto Sebastian before his body completely went through the portal, "Take good care of Vin, okay?"
She winked as Sebastian's eyes went wide open while the portal slowly closed.

"Oh, I missed Zenphek!" Eden said, immediately he stepped out of the portal.
Sebastian raised his hand, forming a shadow on his eyes, when the sunlight struck them.
"Morning?" He asked, seeing the bright environment.
"Yes! Elaskor is far away. The time difference is quite large" Lucas replied.
"Welcome back!" A male told them, his smile, warm as ever.
"Oh, Mr Snow!" Eden and Lucas both said in chorus.
"How was your journey?"
"Perfect!" Eden replied.
"We defeated an upper ranked moon demon with Vin's help!" Lucas said, excitement in his eyes.
Snow looked at Sebastian (who took the form of Vin) with a indirect smile, "You sure are powerful"
Sebastian narrowed his eyes on Snow.
'Snow, Dravil's worst enemy. From the start, Dravil hated this powerful mage and every time he came into combat with him and only by mere looking, his soul would get irritated and provoked.'
"Some training now and then. You understand. That's how I became powerful, I guess" he answered, eyes studying the environment.
"Okay, you all should get some rest and prepare for the afternoon class–"
"But, Sir, we just came back!" Eden said, wanting more time.
"After staying and relaxing in Elaskor for a week. How shameful of you to be thinking about resting more?. Now, go relax and prepare for the afternoon class!" Snow crossed his arms, using a harsh tone for the first time. "Lazy mages!"
Eden, Lucas, both dragged their legs. Another class means another level of training.
However, as grumblings from their mouths filled the air, Sebastian did not say a single word. He was still stuck on thinking about how to pass the night here without revealing his true identity.
"Vin!"
Sebastian continued walking away, the hood, hiding his emotion.
"Vincent!"
'Wait, am I not–"
"Yes?" Sebastian answered, not being able to deflect the reason for being quiet, especially to Snow who called him.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes…."
"You are looking off, anything you want to say or ask?" Snow asked with the highest level of concern.
Sebastian kept his eyes low, he did not want Snow to see the pure Darkness of them.
"Well, I wanted to ask you something. Something about the black snake mark!" Sebastian said, making Snow frown.
"You saw someone with the mark?"
"No. Just curious after hearing some rumors about it being on Dravil's body!"
Snow frowned deeper, "The black snake mark is one which actually can't be explained. Some says, It is more like a Mark which appears on Dravil's body when he is in great pain. The mark is said to have once appeared when Dravil was trapped in hell, tormented by not an ordinary flame of fire or dipped into the pit of pure lava. While the other, which I know it sounds more correct, Says the black snake mark shows how powerful Dravil is. Every scale, represents his power, multiplied by five. And I know for sure, that is correct. The snake mark goes from his shoulder down to his left leg. And there are about seven million scales on the black snake's mark, worse is that, they multiply by two every lunar eclipse.." Snow explained all these to Sebastian. His glare on the morning sky.
'Just how powerful is Lord Dravil?'

Vin opened his eyes, only to find himself in a bath. Stripped from his clothes. A throbbing pain in his head, worse than a bad headache which would not go away.
The liquid where his body laid was blood and an aromatic scent filled the air. Mild, yet it gives off a weird vibe.
He tried sitting up, but was pushed back by Vittaya.
"My Lord, please, do not interrupt the process. You are healing!"
"Healing from what?" Vin asked.
"Bloodlust."
