Leuko rejoiced, "I'm back to life too! You're amazing, Chosen One!"
James looked at them and explained, "I'll cut to the chase. From now on, you two are to remain in Great Historial Land, taking command of the three holy temples. Your focus will be on fusing powers and appraising energies. Given that you're both born from essence and have undergone the cycle of life and death, you should understand your duties well."
Stephen opened his mouth, attempting to reply to James. However, before he could get a word out, Leuko had rushed to his side and affectionately linked arms with him.
Leuko vowed, "Don't worry, Master! We'll live up to your expectations."
Stephen struggled from Leuko's grasp and said, "Master? I'm his disciple, so why are you calling him master too?"
Leuko retorted, "Isn't your master also mine? We're already a couple and even died together once. Are you trying to back out now?"
Caught off guard by her words, Stephen turned to James with a pleading expression. "Master, look at her. I don't..."
"Don't what?" James laughed, "If you ask me what love is, I'd say it's a promise to die alongside each other. She already died once for you. Isn't that enough testament to her feelings toward you?"
Stephen looked at Leuko helplessly, then mumbled, "Since Master already acknowledged her, I suppose I have to as well."
Leuko's face immediately lit up, and she bounced excitedly.
Stephen quickly pointed at Leuko and added, "But you must promise not to bully
me. Master has taught me a true man should never harm his wife. However, if you force me, I."
"What will you do?" James interrupted him.
Stephen immediately swallowed his words after meeting James' glare. His voice dropped to a mutter, "I...I'll tell Master."
Leuko and Lesia chuckled, and even James could not help but smile.
James thought to himself, 'This guy just doesn't grow up.'
Suddenly, Lesia interjected with a reminder. "Master, it's best you leave your two children in their care."
James looked at Stephen awkwardly, then said, "Uhm, Stephen. I have a pair of twins. They're somewhat naughty, so, you see."
Stephen interjected, "I'll treat your children like my own siblings. Taking care of them is our duty. I understand you have more important tasks on hand. Don't worry, and leave them to us."
James nodded thankfully at him.
The decision to leave his two children in Great Historial Land was not a desire to evade responsibility but a strategic measure to safeguard them. The impending battle with Yehria was more than a personal vendetta. It was a confrontation that could potentially draw in the powerhouses of Zymurgy.
The stakes were high, and the outcome was uncertain. If they could be raised in the Great Historial Land and develop their strength, then Thea's efforts to bring them into the world in such a place would be in vain.
With this resolve, James turned around and waved his hand. A ten-colored light emerged from his palm and swept the area, instantly turning the desolate Forbidden Bloodshade into a beautiful paradise full of greenery and lakes. At the same time, a panorama of floating caves materialized in the void. With a deft hand motion, James released the souls of his friends and allies into the suspended caves. By doing so, they could benefit from the Waltraud Power of the Forbidden Bloodshade and the Great Historial Land.
Amongst the souls were Biefren and Faela, for whom James had high expectations. The group of powerhouses that had sacrificed in the sealed space were also released.
Lesia suddenly asked, "How about forging golden bodies for them?" James shook his head and said, "No. They've been resurrected from death. I want them to walk their journey and cast their own golden bodies. It would be more meaningful since they would be getting another chance at life."
Lesia nodded, refraining from making further comments. Afterward, James gave Stephen and Leuko some instructions. Then, he proceeded to leave the Forbidden Bloodshade with Lesia.
Before leaving, James glanced at his children a few more times. The two troublemakers were born as Hongrome Children and could easily travel around the Great Historial Land. They did all sorts of things and were having a blast. James smiled as he watched them. Then, he said sentimentally, "Perhaps when we next meet, you two will surprise me."
After speaking, James instantly transformed into a crimson light and left the Great Historial Land.
