Thousands of years later, in the Shadowcrest Castle's Garden:
Maximus lay on the grass with his wives as he doted on baby Eshka.
"Baby, come to your father's arms. Let me see if your teeth have grown!"
"No! Father is bad!" Eshka shouted in embarrassment as she ran to the back of Etheria.
Born at the peak of the Aeon Plane, Maximus had sealed her power to build a solid foundation.
Like the generation before her, from Azur, Venus, Lake, Theo, Enoch, and Alexia, Maximus had to seal all their power to let them build a solid foundation.
However, due to this seal, their growth stage was extended to hundreds of thousands of years.
During this time, from a toddler to adolescence, they honed their morals, fighting skills, basic knowledge, control, etc.
Fortunately, born with innate strength of a tier 9 powerhouse, they didn't need to train to advance, only to grow.
Using their growth period to catch up, they smoothly reached the Overlord Realm in just a few million years.
