As the house's doors creaked open, the subtle sound alerted Julius. He quickly stood up and warned his big brother. "Big bro, stop playing around. They are back!"

Adam, who was experimenting with the effects of his new passive skill, instantly let the various mana structures he had built dissipate.

Julius watched in awe as the strange items, never seen before, disappeared.

"It seems like your mana control has improved again! Congratulations, big bro." Julius said, smiling while sitting next to Louise's bed.

"I'm still far from my objectives. Though, it's true I made good progress compared to when I could barely manifest a few sentences using mana." Adam answered with a hint of pride in his voice. Then, he fell silent as someone opened the door.

"Julius! We are back. Did you miss me?" Arun asked jokingly while entering.

"Is he your wife to miss you after such a short time?" Asha answered, rolling her eyes at her fiancé's antics.
