Liebe said, "I see… but I still need your help in passing."
Kera said, "I see… then how about this. I can teach you a spell that will notify me, and then I will come to help you whenever you have classes."
Liebe said, "Deal. But I want another thing."
Kera said, "What is it?"
Liebe said, "I need your help to train me. I want to be stronger, and as of right now, you are the strongest. So teach me how to be stronger."
Kera said, "Why?"
Liebe said, "Because… I lost everything and everyone I treasure in one day, because I wasn't strong enough. And now I live in disgrace as a son who couldn't do anything."
Kera said, "Okay then, let's begin. But I have one request."
Liebe said, "What is it?"
Kera said, "If I were to perish, please take care of my child and take it under your wing as your Familia."
Liebe said, "Okay then. But why me?"
Kera said, "You are a human who bears darkness in hand, but I can sense you only bear light and warmth in heart. That's why. Just remember, I won't always be able to be with you."
Liebe said, "Okay then. We still have about three hours till class starts, let's start training."
Then they went outside.
Kera said, "Show me your breath attack."
Liebe said, "Dark Magic: Breath of Hatred!" and unleashed it towards the sky.
Kera said, "I see, your attack is strong for a human. Now try to do it again, but this time try to decrease the radius and condense it more. In this way, it will grow stronger."
And then they trained for a bit, and Liebe went back to the dorms and then to class. This went on for the next few days.
Then Kera said, "For a human, you have strong magic. But your instincts are lacking."
Then Kera said to tie a blindfold, and his task was to reach the cave without seeing. On the first day, it took Liebe 17 hours. But eventually, after 3 months of training, he could run to the mountain in just about 2 hours.
That night, while Liebe and Licht were about to go to sleep, Licht said, "I don't know when my Familia will come, but yours is definitely awesome."
Liebe said, "Thanks. Well, it's getting late, time to hit the bed."
Licht said, "Yeah… and why the hell do we have to write a report on our Familia? It's a lot of work!"
Liebe said, "Look who's talking. You just had to write that it's incubating. I actually work on it."
Licht said, "Not my fault, it still hasn't hatched yet."
Then Liebe dimmed the candle, and just as the room turned dark, a portal was created from which a person stabbed Liebe with a holy dagger.
