Everyone was gathered in the laboratory, eagerly awaiting the arrival of Prince Logon. The machine they were using was still being set up, and Drac made a lighthearted comment to Safira, warning her not to break it. However, his joke was met with a punch from Safira, so he decided not to push his luck any further.
Fenris was playing with Prince Damian, knowing she would miss him dearly once they left. Princess Aeryn was trying to get Damian's attention, expressing her excitement for her awakening and speculating about what powers Damian would have when he awakened.
This caused Damian to zone out, as he already knew he had awakened, and it was pointless for him to wait for one. Fenris changed the subject, telling Aeryn that she was sure she would awaken with some great powers, and she just needed to wait for her Úplairis to arrive.
After a short wait, Prince Logon finally arrived, apologizing for keeping everyone waiting. He explained that being in the shower felt natural to him again, and he didn't want to leave it. Everyone laughed and understood, knowing he must be still hooked on his spiritual journey.
"Son, come here and sit. Let me apply the cables so we can scan you. The new machine doesn't require any markings on the body and is much quicker and smaller. Technology is advancing with this alliance and everyone working together now," said King Aerin.
Drac was impressed by the new machine and asked, "Is it explo...I mean is it portable as well?" However, he quickly changed his question, seeing the death glare from Queen Safira.
Queen Estel shook her head at him, "No, they require a massive source of energy."
"Ah, I see. Thank you, Estel. Do they still update it with new species as well? Or have they slowed that down now since not many are born or created?" asked Drac.
King Aerin replied, "No, they still update it every once in a while. Some beasts even get added to it for races that want to know their mount's stats and power level."
As Drac watched, Prince Logon prepared himself for the scan. King Aerin signalled for him to lie down once he was ready, and began the scan. The room was silent as they waited for the results, the only sound being the occasional beep of the machine.
Finally, a loud "ding" signalled the completion of the scan.
Prince Logon jumped up in so much excitement but forgot about the cables still attached to him. He ran towards the projector but tripped and fell to the ground. The room erupted in laughter as Prince Logon got up, rubbing his sore butt.
Harlow chuckled, "That wasn't very clever, Logon."
Queen Estel smiled and kissed her son on the head, "My darling son, you may have become a man today, but you are still one clumsy kid that needs to learn patience."
King Aerin quickly removed the cables, not wanting to order a new one.
Prince Logon couldn't contain his excitement, "Ahh, mom, please! I wanna know what I have and how strong I have become now. I'm gonna become so good like dad and fight to protect my family."
Drac leaned down and whispered to Prince Logon, "That's a good heart you have there, Prince Logon. Don't lose it no matter what. FYI, women love a man with a caring heart."
Prince Logon turned a little red and smiled at Drac, "I will never lose my heart and will always protect and love my family no matter what."
"Amazing life goals, Prince Logon. Family is the most important thing and you must always cherish them," Drac said.
Prince Logon nodded, making sure to keep his word.
King Aerin tapped the computer and projected the results onto the screen. Everyone, including Prince Damian, crowded around to see. The room was filled with excitement and anticipation as they eagerly awaited the results of the scan.

Prince Logon leapt with excitement, his eyes shining as he danced around the room, holding the laws he had acquired on his journey tightly in his hands.
"Well done, my son," King Aerin said, a proud smile on his face. "You have awakened water law, an advanced power like your father's. You have also acquired air law and even your mother's wood law. You are a tri-law holder with an 83% comprehension. A true genius and you take after me."
Queen Estel giggled at her husband's words. "Aerin, honey, he got that from me and you know it."
Queen Safira, Drac, Fenris and Prince Damian congratulated Prince Logon on his amazing achievement, being able to acquire an advanced law at such a young age, just like his father. They all believed that he would surpass King Aerin, who couldn't learn at a young age due to his father.
King Aerin and Queen Estel hugged their son tightly, telling him how proud they were of him. They reminded him to be careful with his powers and not to use them irresponsibly or hurt anyone weaker than him, to which Prince Logon nodded in agreement, promising to only use his powers properly and only when necessary for defence.
Just then, Prince Damian spoke up nervously. "Uhmm...can I please be tested again? I want to see my soul comprehensive level and the stats as well, to get a better understanding. Sorry, brother, I don't want to ruin your moment."
Everyone looked at Prince Damian in surprise, unsure of what to say. King Aerin and Queen Estel felt a twinge of sadness, wishing that Prince Damian would understand that he had a voice now as a prince and should speak with confidence, without worrying.
Prince Damian, of course, didn't know this and didn't want to come off as ungrateful or mean towards Prince Logon.
King Aerin knelt beside Prince Damian, placing a hand on his shoulder. "Son, can I call you that?"
Prince Damian nodded, a small smile on his face, grateful for the acceptance and support of his new family.
As Prince Damian stood before his parents, Queen Estel and King Aerin, and his siblings, Prince Logon and Princess Aeryn, he couldn't help but feel a sense of nervousness creeping in.
But Queen Estel, sensing his apprehension, spoke up to reassure him, "Son, we want you to be comfortable, so don't get nervous. Be free to speak up to us. We promise we won't shout at you and get mad. If you ever need or want something, ask us and we will always be supportive, alright?"
Prince Logon, ever the supportive brother, chimed in, "Don't be worried, brother. I also want to see your results as well, then we can celebrate together." And with a pat on his back, Prince Logon gave him a reassuring smile.
Princess Aeryn, standing in the background, blushed a little as she looked around the room. Queen Safira walked over to Prince Damian and placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "Everything will be alright," she said softly. "Don't be scared or worry about the results." Prince Damian nodded, kissing her in return.
Fenris walked over to his side, hugged Prince Damian and said, "No matter what, you are still a fantastic young man with so much potential to grow."
Drac, the court jester, couldn't resist a bit of teasing, "Damian, could you try to change the results a little so Queen Safira doesn't break the machine this time?" But with a yelp of pain, as Queen Safira playfully punched him, he quickly added, "Just joking, Safira. I'm seriously joking. That hurt."
King Aerin then instructed Prince Damian to lie down and began the testing.
"This will take longer because we want to test his power level as well," he said, inputting the necessary parameters.
As the minutes ticked by, the machine continued to scan, and King Aerin started to worry about why it was taking so long.
"Is everything alright, Aerin? Why is it taking so long to load and finish?" Queen Safira asked, her concern evident.
King Aerin shook his head, "I don't know. It said it would have been done in 5 minutes, but it is still loading." As he checked the computer, a look of confusion passed over his face. "Hmmm, strange. It says it is still trying to scan his soul. That is weird. Well, maybe it needs to warm up."
As four more minutes passed, Drac couldn't help but ask King Aerin how much longer the process would take. It shouldn't be taking this long, even for a powered individual. King Aerin simply shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he didn't know. Drac couldn't help but feel frustrated as he watched the machine struggle for some unknown reason.
"Don't worry Damian, everything will be perfect. I promise you don't need to stress, just breathe," Queen Safira reassured Prince Damian as she stroked his hand.
Just as one more minute passed, the sound of a beep filled the room, calming everyone's nerves. Prince Damian got up, touching his chest with his hand.
"Damian darling, are you alright? Are you hurting or something?" Queen Safira asked, concerned for him.
Prince Damian shook his head slightly and looked at her, "Something felt alive in me."
Everyone in the room stopped what they were doing and looked at Damian, eager to understand what he meant by that.
"Darling, could you explain that better for us? What do you mean?" Queen Safira asked, still stroking his hand as he removed the cables from the machine.
"When I was lying down, I felt the scan start. I don't know how, but I felt something probing me. Then I felt a burning sensation in my chest, like a raging fire trying to push back the probing. It was like when I play tag with my brother and sister and my body wants to fight back," Prince Damian explained, clicking his fingers as he looked up at the confused adults.
All eyes then turned to Queen Safira for answers, but she simply lifted her hands in a surrendering gesture and sighed, "I'm an Ancient God Beast, the Queen Dragons. Do I look like that old turtle who studies all day? I don't know everything, alright? I admit that."
Drac couldn't help but interject, "Wait a minute... aren't you older than him?"
Before he knew it, Drac was flying across the room as King Aerin cried out that his laboratory was getting damaged again.
"Wanna say that again? I didn't quite hear you Drac properly," Queen Safira taunted as she held her ear with one hand.
Drac, nursing his wound, decided it was best to remain silent and quickly walked off.
King Aerin coughed, "Ahem... please can you not fight in here? I just got the results and they're downloading now. Look at the projection."
Everyone rushed to the monitor, eager to see the results. Drac, pretending to be hurt, rushed over as well.
As they all looked at the results, they couldn't help but wonder, "How is this possible? When did this happen? This makes no sense!"
