Truf turned his head to Humility. She acted like his mother even though she didn\'t have to. There were times when she got angry, but Truf could always feel the warmth she exuded whenever she acted kind and caring.

She was the only solace Truf had in this world.

"Master is trustworthy," Humility said to him, understanding why he looked at her.

Truf turned his head back to Lawrend. He stared at him with eyes of doubt and suspiciousness. Lawrend was not a trustworthy person in his mind.

"I will trust you this once," Truf said and nodded his head.

"Ahahaha! Okay!" Lawrend laughed.

He found it amusing that Truf said it like he didn\'t already trust him by studying magic under him. His mind was truly corrupted by his desire for revenge. He failed to see the things around him clearly.

Truf wanted to kick Lawrend after seeing him laugh. Fortunately, he had the ability to control his emotions. He knew it wasn\'t the time yet. One day, he would defeat Lawrend fair and square.

"Since everyone is done, I will be returning to my room. Nao, wait outside my door. I will call for you in," Lawrend said.

They nodded their heads at him. Lawrend took one last look at his children before leaving.

He turned into a golden bolt of lightning and returned to his room.

Lawrend immediately entered the bathtub. He used his magic and warmed the temperature of the water perfectly. He relaxed in there for several hours. He used this time to think about his children and his future.

He definitely needed to become stronger to become able to protect his children. He didn\'t know if he had any enemies at the Ignis Clan. There might be a Heaven Mage in there that didn\'t like him because he came out of nowhere.

Lawrend was merely speculating. He stopped overthinking it and thought about other things.

With his planetary system upgraded, Lawrend was now sure about his future path. He wanted to create his own world and live there. This current one was controlled by the Goddess. He doubted that she would hand it over to him.

In total, there were eight levels in this world. Beginner Mage, True Mage, High Mage, Arch Mage, Grand Mage, Earth Mage, Heaven Mage, and Divine Mage. Above those was Sub-God.

Lawrend wasn\'t entirely sure if Godhood was above Sub-God. He might need to ask the Goddess more but asking that question could let her know that he was planning to become a God.

\'A Sub-God… I can\'t let myself become her servant,\' Lawrend thought to himself.

Lawrend already got a faint idea of how to become a Heaven Mage. He needed to resonate with the universe more. He needed to connect with it and be able to use the mana from his surroundings.

Valentina mentioned in the past that Heaven Mages needed a Divinity to reach that level.

"Valentina, what is a Divinity?" Lawrend asked within his mind.

"I have no clear idea, but it is the key to becoming a Heaven Mage. Each Heaven Mage got a Divinity in some form or another," Valentina\'s beautiful voice replied to him.

"Then what is your Divinity in the past?" Lawrend asked.

"It\'s complicated. When I became an Earth Mage, I connected with the world by expressing my desire to protect the world from destruction. And then when I became a Heaven Mage, I connected with the skies or heaven, whatever you call it. At that time, I felt the plants that I had interacted in the past call out to me."

Valentina appeared inside his mind with a confused expression on her face. Trying to recall what happened that time was hard for her.

"What happened next?"

"An unending ethereal golden string stretched out from my soul to space. I have tried multiple times to reach the end but going higher became harder as I couldn\'t fly any higher."

"Do you still have that golden string?" Lawrend asked.

"No. I suppose the reason I\'m still alive today was because of that golden string. It modified my soul\'s strength."

"Interesting."

Lawrend had no idea what that golden string was but it was a clue.

"How did you know to call it a Divinity?" Lawrend asked.

"There were many Heaven Mages during that time. I consulted several of them and they all said something about it. I haven\'t asked them clearly where the term originated from."

"Divinity… You felt the plants you interacted with in the past… a never-ending golden string reaching to space… I have no idea. I can feel the answer at the tip of my mind, but it\'s not coming to me," Lawrend said to her, still within his mind. He avoided speaking so the Goddess won\'t spy on him.

It didn\'t make any sense. There didn\'t seem to be a connection between the two.

"Do you have anything else to ask, Master?"

"No. Thank you for answering my questions."

Valentina vanished within his mind.

Lawrend opened his eyes and blankly stared at the ceiling. His soul was more intelligent than before but the path to becoming a Heaven Mage seemed very hard. It was not a surprise that the Blumin Emperor failed after trying for thousands and thousands of years.

"It\'s time," Lawrend said out loud.

He finished washing his body and walked out of the bathroom. He sat on his bed.

"You can come in."

The door to the room opened and Nao walked inside. She had a cool expression on her face and walked in carrying a towel on her arm.

"How did you know?"

"Sister Grape sent me here and said she heard sounds of water from inside before she returned," Nao answered calmly.

"Wipe my body," Lawrend ordered.

Nao nodded her head and started from the top. Lawrend closed his eyes as she wiped the droplets of water on his neck, chest, and back. She lifted his arms and got under his armpit.

Lawrend couldn\'t help but think that he was acting like a baby. Nevertheless, he didn\'t stop her.
