"Good," Mortis said with a nod. Since he had Gravis' memories, he also saw Orthar as a friend, but he also knew that this Orthar was different from the previous one.

Mortis wanted to make sure that Orthar wouldn't make a stupid mistake.

"You can simply leave whenever you want," Orthar said to Gravis and Mortis. "I have made my stance clear. Whatever happens from now on is up to you."

"Also, one more thing," Orthar added as his eyes narrowed. "Don't attack my Cosmos with the Major Law of Death again. I might want you to act as a stabilizer, but you still need to reach the power necessary to act as one. Fixing a hole in the Cosmos takes a gigantic amount of Energy, and I need every little bit of it."

Orthar looked at the Opposer. "Before you have reached sufficient power, I can't allow myself to become careless. If I waste just a little too much Energy, I might die to your father's hand before you achieve the necessary power to act as a stabilizer."

The Opposer only glanced back at Orthar.

He hadn't spoken much since they had arrived, which made his stance clear.

He would support his two sons, but he would still allow them to make their own decisions.

He hadn't interjected with his own thoughts regarding what Orthar had said.

"This won't happen a second time," Gravis said. "If I can't lose something, it doesn't have any value. By being willful this time, father has paid the price. I can't allow him to pay the same price again, or I might regret it forever."

Mortis nodded. "Agreed. If I die, I die. I can get why Gravis resurrected me this time, but I don't want it to happen a second time."

"Good," Orthar said.

And then, Orthar disappeared.

It was like he had never been there.

After some seconds, the Opposer looked away from the place Orthar had been and looked at his two sons.

Gravis and Mortis looked at their father, unsure how they should feel.

They could finally return home, and they would never need to leave again.

They had gone through the lower world, the middle world, and the higher world to reach the highest world.

The very world that had been so far away from them in the past was now directly in front of them.

There would be no more temporary homes, only a permanent home.

They didn't have to say goodbye to their close ones again.

They wouldn't leave to different worlds anymore.

As Gravis looked at his father, his family shot through his mind.

Was Aris still alive? Had he reached the highest world?

Was Cera still alive?
