**Caera's Point of View**

*2 Months Later*

It's been 2 months since Osto left, and not much has happened during this time.

I've grown closer to Tessia and Kathlyn, and I've tried to console Alice a bit.

*3 Months Later*

I really miss you, my love. When will you come back? Please come back quickly.

I've made some progress with my Aether core, and I'm nearing the second stage.

*5 Months Later*

Osto, where are you? Please come back.

My Aether core has reached the second stage.

*8 Months Later*

I miss you so much, Osto. Tessia and Kathlyn can't calm me down anymore. Please come back.

I've hit a dead end with all the techniques Osto taught me; I need enlightenment.

*1 Year Later*

It's been a year; I've decided to retreat into seclusion and spend all my time training. Otherwise, I'll go mad.

*1.5 Years Later*

I've hit a dead end with my Aether core; I can't progress. I've mastered some of the techniques Osto taught me, but I need to work harder so that Osto isn't disappointed and loves me even more.

*2 Years Later*

Two years have passed. Osto, where are you? Please just send a message; I just want to know you're alive. Please don't leave me here. Nocturne has left for training, and I'm training alone. I've mastered all the techniques.

*3 Years Later*

I haven't done anything for six months, just training. My clothes haven't worn out much because they're made of Aether.

*4 Years Later*

Ah, someone's knocking at the door. Could it be Osto? I hope so; I just want to see him. Please, please, please, please, please, Osto, I just want to see you.

When I opened the door, a handsome man with long black hair and gray eyes greeted me. I realized it was Osto, and I hugged him.

"It's been a long time, Caera. I missed you so much, and I've come back," Osto said. I think I'm not dreaming; I hope he really has returned.

I saw tears in Osto's eyes. I brought my hands to his face and started kissing him, and he hugged me tightly and kissed me back.

**Apostolos's Point of View**

It's been four years. For three years, I searched for another world and tried to decipher its techniques. When I returned, my first task was to strengthen the magic that protects the world from the eyes of God because it had weakened significantly in my absence.

I spread my mana to find Caera, and it wasn't difficult to find her. I realized she was in the cave I made a long time ago, and I teleported to her quickly.

When I arrived at the door, I was greeted by a distraught Caera. Her skin was pale, the sparkle in her eyes was gone, and her clothes were worn out. I didn't understand how her clothes had deteriorated so much since they were made of Aether, and I didn't realize she had been here for so long.

I started crying without realizing it, and Caera approached and kissed me.

I could feel her loneliness, and I tried to comfort her by hugging her.

We kissed for minutes, and when we parted, Caera started crying. Seeing her like this made me feel bad; I should take her with me, but I remembered what I experienced in space, and I realized that this idea wasn't logical.

"I'm here now, Caera. Don't cry; I'll never leave you again, and I'm always with you," I said, pulling her into my arms and sitting her on my lap.

"Please, Osto, don't leave me again," Caera said.

"Of course, I won't leave you, Caera. You're my life," I said.

"Mmm," Caera murmured, burying her head on my chest.

I wrapped my arms around her body, and while my right hand stroked her back, my left hand slowly went down to her butt. We're 16 now, so I don't hesitate to touch her.

"Don't, Osto. It's not the time," Caera said, and I chuckled, but my hand didn't leave her butt.

I slowly caressed her butt and kneaded it like dough. It's obvious she hasn't been taking care of herself for a long time, but she's softer than anything I've ever seen.

"Osto, stop," Caera said, and put my hand on her head.

"Why, Caera? Don't you like me anymore?" I said with fake sadness.

"Stop it, fool. There won't be a moment when I don't like you; it's just not the time right now," Caera said, and I chuckled, but my hand didn't stop.

"How about you tell me what you've been doing while I was gone? Then we can go home and talk to everyone," I said to Caera.

"I didn't do much. I was in the city for the first few months, spending time with the others, but I've been training in this cave for over three years. Don't be disappointed," Caera said, but I could tell from her voice that she wasn't telling everything.

"Why don't you tell me everything?" I said to Caera seriously, and she understood that I was serious, and decided to finish the story.

"I was going crazy, Osto. The only way to forget your absence was training. Despite that, if you hadn't come for another year, I would've gone crazy," Caera said. When I heard this, I realized how stupid I was.

"I'm sorry, Caera. Please forgive me, but I swear I won't leave you again," I said to Caera.

I leaned closer to Caera's face and kissed her. I really don't want to leave her; all I want is to kiss her. While I continued to stroke her back with my right hand, my left hand went down to her butt, and I started kneading it like dough.

We continued like this for a while, and my movements became bolder, and in the end, my right hand was holding her chest.

"Now is not the time, Osto. Wait a few more days. I'll give you a gift on your 17th birthday," Caera said with a teasing voice.

"I'll patiently wait for this gift, Caera. Just don't forget it on my birthday, or I'll chase after you," I said teasingly.

"Please, my lord, I'll only wait for you. Chase after me and hunt me," Caera said with a teasing voice.

I bit her cheek and spoke.

"This is my sign, my lady. Remember, I'll definitely take the gift you'll give me," I said.

"That's enough; let's go and sleep," Caera said.

I noticed that Caera hadn't bathed for a long time, and I washed her with magic.

When we were done, I lifted Caera and took her to bed.

"I'll find it hard to control myself, Caera. I hope you'll forgive me if I make a mistake, my love," I said to Caera.

"As long as you don't overdo it, there won't be a problem," Caera replied.

"Then goodnight, my love," I said, and we both started to fall asleep together.
