"It will be a huge problem if Sigmund really has risen from the dead," Haruna commented after getting an explanation from Alan.

"That's why I asked you to disable or hide the unique energy flow within Atha's children like me or Celia," Alan replied. "That way, I hope he couldn't detect you. I doubt he still knows you."

The kunoichi smiled. "Don't worry, I've already turned it off like you said. Even though this body belongs to Atha's children, I am a creature that shouldn't exist in this world."

Not long after, Celia came out of the hut carrying her backpack. "Let's go. I've packed my things."

"Take care, Haruna, Brunch." Alan rubbed the wyvern's head, then jumped down with Celia to leave the dock. "Ah, don't forget to tell our neighbor."

"Sure." Haruna gave a signal by forming a circle with her index finger and thumb.
