The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight began to pierce through his window at the Est family residence, Ethan was ready with his decision.
After all the invaluable experiences he had gained on this journey, he felt a strong bond with the Est family, yet he couldn't ignore his thirst for adventure and his original purpose.
Ethan intended to return to his own path, continuing his quest to seek out powerful beings he could absorb to attain the strength he had long desired.
With this resolve, he decided to meet with Sir Alderic and Leaf, prepared to say his goodbyes.
As he stepped into the main hall, Ethan saw Sir Alderic speaking with a few soldiers. When Alderic noticed Ethan, he immediately greeted him. "Ethan, what brings you here so early?" he asked with a smile.
