After what seemed like the longest day Moby had experienced in a while, he finally retired back into his dorm.

He looked around at everything once more and how empty it all felt. Yet, even still, he bore a smile on his face. He walked Hikari back to her room after they chatted and trained slightly in the city and she seemed to be having genuine fun. She did express to him how her first day of school was rather exceptional, but not perfect, and the only reason it was this way was because of him, which he felt like she was giving him too much credit for.

Time was getting fairly late and Moby had a lot of things to do. And, that all began with eating dinner and taking a quick shower. In the meantime, he could not help but notice the sound coming out of a certain area in the house, the training room.

'Seems like Regrit's already back and hard at work…' He thought to himself. Out of all the terrible qualities and impressions he got out of that man, he still admired his work ethic and determination, although some of that was admittedly still odd.

Until Regrit got out of the training room, Moby decided to head to one of the two PCs available in the room and immediately went to work.

First off, he tried to access the standard social media of the world only to find them blocked as he expected. It was a very different experience than he was used to. There were only a few accessible websites and those websites only served as information and training instructions sanctioned by the military itself. And, the main website out of all of this was the worldwide military's official website.

After signing in using his new student ID, he was met by endless waves and waves of articles that were previously off-limits to him before. Still, a good chunk of these articles were locked behind a paywall. However, it was no normal pay-wall, if it were that then it would have not been a problem at all. This paywall required school points and some of them were in the thousands.

Luckily, this would not affect his chances of making it through to the next semester as school points were permanent and expendable at the same time. Students were allowed to spend their points since the only thing that mattered for moving on to the next semester was the total points acquired.

Currently, Moby was very poor and was not even able to access any of the important files. Even still, the free ones were interesting indeed, they even included that single dragon sighting that girl in his class talked about.

Moby was slightly overwhelmed at the amount of content available there was. So, he did the only thing natural anyone would have done in his situation.

He filtered out all of the results and only kept very few terms. "The Kane Family," "Angel", "Demon", "Devil", "God", and "Dragon".

Sadly, he saw none concerning his family but the same could not be said about everything else that was mostly locked. He came across so many religious conspiracy theories, how some people believed that the shalkers were angels who came down to smite humanity for abandoning god in the name of greater power and abilities. And, entire articles about demon children, documenting all there was to know about them.

Most of the theories regarding demon children were very wild but extremely in-depth. Yet, both Moby and Avilia did not find any reason with their knowledge to take them as fact. The only theory that they found that might have some merit stated this: 'Since the phenomenon appeared after the arrival of abilities and mana, then it must be some sort of mana related poisoning or disease affecting the minds of children.' However, there seemed to be a lot of research debunking this theory and claiming it as part of propaganda spread around by the poor who could not afford abilities.

Nothing was really definitive and it was all rather convoluted and confusing. This was also the case for all the demon and angel-related content. Still, it gave a very good insight into what humans perceived as gods and demons; it was all very religious.

What really interested him was the locked articles, especially a certain one created by the great Alexander Davis himself titled: "The Truth". It was a document worth 1 million points, and the only alternative was to achieve a supreme general rank in the military. It was very odd… What was hidden in that document… And, was 1 million points even possible!?

Moby sighed looking at his computer screen. It seemed like he was expecting far too much from the free information provided by the military. All of the interesting and well-made documents were hidden behind a pay wall or a certain military rank.

There was still various subjects he did not explore such as what the military believed abilities to be and how they were created but he could save that for another time. Besides, he had entire classes dedicated to that exact subject the next day.

For what felt like forever, Moby leaned back on his seat and cracked his fingers. He checked the time and found it to be extremely late. He had no idea he was reading conspiracy theories for this long.

That was when he heard a creaking sound coming from the door.

"Huh? You're still awake… Kane…"

He turned around lazily to see exactly who he was expecting.

"Yeah, I was just doing some research. I see you've been working hard, but what's with this pissy attitude of yours? It's even worse than usual!"

"I'm tired! That's all cunt! It's 2:00 AM and I have class tomorrow! You should probably sleep too if you don't want to act like a zombie in class!"

"Okay there… I thought your period was yesterday but I guess I was wrong," Moby chuckled, closing his PC and hopping into bed. "I did plan on going to train in the room but you've been hogging it ever since we came."

*Tsk* "Shut your mouth or one of these days I'll rip out your tongue! And whatever! You can use the room tomorrow in the morning before class!"

"That's nice of you! So, I'll get it in the mornings and you get it during the night? Not bad but why can't we just share it?"

"HUH!? In your dreams! I'd rather die than train with you and let you see all my secrets!?"

"Secrets? What are you doing in there all day? Jacking off? Is that what all the sound is coming from? We already train in class so what's the difference?"

"S-shut up! It's completely different!"

"Hahaha! Okay, sure thing buddy!" Moby smiled, staring at the ceiling of the dark bedroom.

He could not remember the last time he had playful fun talking with anyone ever since talking to Jayden and Alex before the incident… It felt like his brain degraded to the level of a chimpanzee but he could not help but find it amusing to let loose like that. It was different from when they first met.

The air suddenly fell silent. Moby had planned to check out the training room since he was not at all tired but that would arouse some suspicions since every human needed sleep.

So, for now, he decided to train his freezing time and eyes of sin while pretending to sleep in bed, that along with doing various meditation rituals taught by Mason Griffith and Avilia, along with the ones he developed himself.

However, when he was about to close his eyes, he heard a faint whisper enter his ears.

"Hey Kane… You're record states that you're undefeated right?"

"Y-yeah? Why?"

"Good… Don't you dare lose to ANYONE! It's gonna be me who finally puts you in your place… Not even a pretend loss when you don't even try! NOTHING!"

"O-okay? Why are you being so serious about all of this? Why does it have to be me? Why are you so deadset on it?"

"Do you know who I am Kane?"

"No… Should I?"

"Heh… I should have expected that… And no… You shouldn't know who I am… Goodnight…" He turned his head to the other side, staring blankly at the wall. And, unbeknownst to Moby, a single tear flowed down Regrit's face along with a hurt, slightly angry-looking expression as he tried to sleep...
