"So that's what happened," Zion said as he finished retelling everything that happened to him. He decided to omit the 'intimate' moments he had with Lilith, not to make Lidia jealous.
"Woah. So you were in the Fracture for nine years? That must have been hell." Lidia hugged Zion tighter.
"It was alright. I had Tessa and Aryah to keep me company. Still, fighting kept my mind off the time. Besides, look at me now, I bet I can beat my mom now."
"Just don't let her hear you say that."
Zion winced. "I know. I'll keep things to myself for now."
"So what are you going to do now?" Alice wondered.
"For now, I'll help with the conquest of Midgard. Ignis is leading the charge here, so everything should be fine. Go and help her, I have business in the Valkoria Kingdom."
The three of them bid their farewells, and Zion rocketed off to the Valkoria Kingdom.
