*Sunday, 1 PM.*
Akira woke up after sleeping for seven hours, but it wasn't because he had enough rest. Instead, he felt a massive magical force that caused him to awaken.
As for Seraphim, she didn't seem to sense it because the source of the magical power was far away, making it impossible for Seraphim's senses to detect it.
"I feel sorry for waking her," Akira murmured as he got out of bed. Seraphim was exhausted after several steamy sessions with him, so he didn't want to wake her up, knowing she must be extremely tired.
Seraphim, who was raised and trained to serve Akira, understood that accompanying him in bed was one of her duties. She didn't dislike it, and she'd be lying if she said she didn't like Akira—he was strong, kind, and undoubtedly the most handsome man she had ever seen.
Even though this was the first time they'd done it, Seraphim was sure her body couldn't live without Akira.
"..." Akira stared at Seraphim's satisfied, smiling face for a moment, then extended a pair of wings from his back and flew into the sky towards the source of the magical power he had sensed.
Although this magical power wasn't that significant compared to Akira's own, it was still incredibly impressive, and no mere attack mage could possess such a level of magical energy.
Thinking about this, Akira couldn't help but feel curious about the identity of the one who held this magical power, not to mention that he could sense several other impressive magical forces in the area from where the magic originated.
Driven by his curiosity, Akira vanished from the hotel, not needing to worry about Seraphim, as a powerful barrier made of Primordial Rune surrounded and protected her.

*Kamioda Temple.*
"An altar? ..." Akira murmured as he stared at the altar that was above the lake. But that wasn't all; there were many people present, with a girl sitting quietly in the center of the altar, from whom an immense magical force was leaking. "I didn't expect there to be people sacrificing humans."
Honestly, Akira couldn't help but be surprised, as he hadn't expected something like this in the 21st century, even in a world filled with demons and other supernatural beings.
"This altar is connected to the bottom of the lake," Akira murmured as he sent his senses to the lake's bottom to see what they were planning to sacrifice the girl for. "I just remembered, there was something like this in the anime where they sacrifice virgin girls with exceptional magical power to seal Avalon."
Although this was mentioned in the anime, Akira hadn't paid much attention to it. But now, seeing it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but feel bad for the girls who had been sacrificed so far.
"It's not that I'm a saint, but while I'm getting Avalon, I might as well save you," Akira murmured, remembering the value of Avalon. He couldn't pass it up, as Avalon or Glenda possessed knowledge that could start a new world war.
With this thought, Akira unleashed his magical power and descended from the sky toward the altar.
"Who's there!!" shouted a beautiful woman with blonde hair and red eyes. Her pointed ears made it clear she was an Elf.
This woman was none other than Endou Yukari, one of the attack mages under the Lion King Organization.
"I am Nifuji Akira, also known as the Heir of the King of Heroes," Akira introduced himself calmly and arrogantly, as he was known as the Heir of the King of Heroes in the supernatural world.
"!!!" Upon hearing Akira's introduction, both Endou Yukari and Akatsuki Hisano couldn't help but be astonished. They hadn't expected the person with magical power comparable to the Primogenitors to be the famous Heir of the King of Heroes.
"My apologies, but why is an attack mage affiliated with the Japanese government standing in our way?" Akatsuki Hisano asked as respectfully as possible, knowing that the Heir of the King of Heroes was known for killing anyone who angered him without hesitation or discrimination.
"First of all, I'm not an attack mage affiliated with the Japanese government. I only obtained the attack mage license on a whim," Akira said indifferently, as he was a free spirit who followed his whims and didn't consider himself affiliated with the Japanese government. "As for why I'm standing in your way, that's something that doesn't need explaining—you'll see for yourselves."
Akira was surprisingly patient this time, as he intended to obtain Glenda and wasn't interested in starting a fight with the Japanese government or the Lion King Organization. Though he didn't fear fighting them, he didn't want to deal with the hassle, as he wanted to flirt with girls in peace.
Akira waved his hand indifferently, causing Endou Yukari, Akatsuki Hisano, and everyone else on the altar to be blown away to a place slightly distant from the altar. He didn't intend to kill them while destroying the altar, as long as they didn't try anything foolish.
Boom
Using Gravity Manipulation, Akira destroyed the altar indifferently, as it had no real purpose other than supplying Glenda with the memories of the girls who were sacrificed to gain information about the current era.
Clatter
When the altar was destroyed, Glenda released a large wave of magical energy to assess what was happening outside. She wasn't sealed as the Japanese government and the Lion King Organization believed; she had only been asleep, waiting for the right time to awaken. However, she was forced to wake up when Akira destroyed the altar, as her main source of information had been destroyed.
Roooar!!
Glenda let out a roar that caused the entire Kamioda Temple to shake. Soon after, an explosion occurred in the lake, and a gray dragon with a metallic touch emerged, curiously observing everything around it.
