Amon resisted the urge to facepalm himself.

'How did I get myself into this situation....' He thought, his palm covering his face.

He opened a space between two fingers on his face, revealing his eye to look through. Right in front of him, Elizabeth was crouched down playing with Lily.

Meanwhile, Katherine was happily talking with Alice.

He brought his hand down and released a sigh.

This was going to be a tiring outing.

His almost silent sigh was heard by Elizabeth, who turned her gaze from Lily and looked at him.

[She's looking at you...] Zephyra told him, making him match her gaze.

He tried to smile and push his emotions back so she couldn't see them.

It wasn't known to him but he was fortunate that she couldn't see his emotions because this measly attempt wasn't enough to halt her skill.

"Hey." He raised a hand in greeting.

Surprise passed through her eyes at his sudden attempt at a greeting, but she also smiled and raised a hand.

"Hey." She greeted back.

It was apparent that she was feeling a little uneasy as well.

A month of not communicating with her had basically reset their friendship back to 0.

As she was about to say something else, Lily ran back to Amon from her hands.

The latter bent a little and lifted her in his arms.

"She's such a sweet child," Elizabeth remarked with a smile.

Amon looked at her and took this as a chance to continue the conversation since he wasn't getting anything in his head at that moment.

"She is, is this your first time meeting her?" He asked and she nodded.

A silence settled between them again but it was broken by her.

"Oh yes, It might be late now but congratulations on winning the FULLDIVE. That was a really great effort out there."

"Yes, It was a little hard out there with them having an advantage over us but we managed to pull through. Congratulations on winning your FULLDIVE as well."

She nodded with a smile.

"It was nothing much since we had an overwhelming advantage over Liliana. But your performance took me by surprise. You improved so much and defeated Prince Michael as well." She applauded.

She wasn't sugarcoating it though.

She was also included in the large crowd that had gaping mouths at his performance.

As someone who witnessed his blood manipulation multiple times, she knew this wasn't just a steady growth.

His mana control and elemental control spiked in an instant.

Out of all the fights in the FULLDIVE, the one between Prince Michael and Amon was the most interesting.

Even being the talk of a whole day in their class.

Not only Amon, but even Prince Michael had shown overwhelming growth.

It wasn't normal at all and it sparked many people's interest in them, Elizabeth included.

However, they were taken by surprise when the group at the back was mostly sleeping or goofing off.

They barely trained. Or at least in the public's eye.

And at the end, the matter was shut down.

Moving back to the present, Amon simply smiled and thanked Elizabeth for her praise.

But suddenly, at the talk of FULLDIVE, she was reminded of his strength.

And subconsciously, her eyes drifted towards his hand.

But even she was unprepared for the shock that hit her when saw the 2-leaf clover mark on his palm.

"Y-you advanced to the 2nd leaf?" She asked out of genuine surprise.

He nodded with a nonchalant expression.

"A while ago, yes." He answered.

For some seconds, her mouth trembled, unable to say anything.

Amon felt a little awkward, not knowing how to break the silence.

Fortunately, they were saved as Katherine called out to them.

"You guys! Let's get something to eat."

Seeing this as a chance, he nodded.

"Let's join them quickly." He broke the silence and joined the duo along with Lily in his arms.

[I don't like that girl.] Zephyra remarked inside Amon's head.

'Hmm? Elizabeth?' The latter asked while taking a sip of his tea.

[Yeah.]

'Why?'

[I don't know.]

.....

[.......]

'.....'

[...What?] She asked, breaking the comedic silence among them as Amon stopped sipping his

tea.

'....You hate her without knowing the reason?' He asked while looking at the 4 people in front of him, eating ice creams.

[I don't hate her, I just don't like her.] She explained.

Amon felt a need to massage his temples.

'How old are you? Why is a million-year-old hag having a problem with teenagers?' He asked.

Not even an instant passed before Zephyra fumed in his head.

[Oi! Just because I'm a goddess doesn't mean I'm a thousand years old!]

'Huh? So how old are you?' His cup of tea halted in mid-air.

[I'm 24.]

'....'

[....]

'....'

[I'm not lying!] She asked, irritated.

'How the fuck-' But before his thoughts could continue, Alice interrupted the outward silence

between them and him.

"It's the middle of August, how are you drinking tea in such hot weather Amon?" She asked, curiousness etched on her expression.

It was true. Most people who would see him drinking tea in the middle of summer would instantly call him crazy.

Rather than ice creams-which everyone in front of him was eating-, lemonades or anything

else, he preferred tea.

"Haha, I just love tea over anything else." He smiled and Alice's expression contorted into an

'o' shape.

"Oh, so you are a teaholic?" Elizabeth asked and he nodded with a light smile.

Lily, who was eating her small ice cream tried to reach out for his cup, prompting him to get it

out of her way.

"Chocolate!"

"That's not chocolate, that's tea!" He spoke, trying to clarify for her who was thinking it was

the former because of it being the same color.

But, the little girl didn't listen and kept trying to reach out for his cup while the others

laughed at the exchange between them both.

In the end, Amon had to give her a real chocolate so she could calm down.
