"So that's how it is. We still have over two and a half years left in the Secret Realm." Mira just finished telling Maria and Celaine about her findings.

Both of them were slightly surprised, not that the time in the Secret Realm was extended but because of how much it was extended.

They both figured that it'd probably be a year at most, but it seems that wasn't the case. Like Mira, they also entertained the thought that their time in the Secret Realm would actually be 3 years, but that's just because 'three' months and 'three' years both have the number 'three'. Of course, that thought was immediately rejected because of how silly their reasoning was.

"Well, since we have so much time left, what should we do now? I want to explore some more, but I've grown fond of this place along with Kayda." Maria asked.

"I like it here as well, but I think we should leave soon. Two and a half years may sound like a long time, but over 10% of that time went by in the blink of an eye. We spent a lot of time trapped in that tornado and cultivating the Magma Dragon Body, and by just doing these two things took up 3 months of our time." Celaine voiced her opinion which caused Mira to glance at her with a hint of amazement. At least one of them was growing during this journey.

"I agree with Celaine. I think we should stay here another week before heading out." Mira said and the other two agreed.

They finished their discussion and walked over to Kayda to tell her their thoughts, to which she happily agreed.

***

A week passed by quickly as the three didn't do much.

Mira mostly talked or hung out with Kayda, which the latter was very pleased with. Mira was growing rather fond of this Dragon girl and felt a sense of comfort being around her. Almost like she could rest her mind while in her vicinity.

This is something that Mira never knew she needed, but up until this point her mind has never been able to fully relax. Something was almost always happening or about to happen and she's never really had the chance to just chill.

The opposite can be said for Kayda. Though she's lived for an incalculable amount of time, most of her time is spent sleeping. In fact, even though Mira doesn't even have a fraction of Kayda's power or age, she probably has more worldly experience than Kayda.

This allows them to be highly compatible with each other as Kayda loves listening to Mira talk and Mira is fond of being near Kayda.

Celaine and Maria just let the two of them be without disturbing them as they both could see that Mira's mind seemed to be at rest when she was near Kayda.

But this was all coming to an end as it was time for them to leave.

"It's time to say goodbye, for real this time," Mira said to Kayda with Maria and Celaien behind her.

"Hehe, I guess I can't keep you here forever seeing how this realm is a smelting trial for you three. I can bring you to pretty much wherever you want to go, do you have any preferences?" Kayda chuckled and asked.

"A place that contains ice, light, or wind would be preferred, but I don't think the other places will be any less useful so I don't have any preferences… Actually, rather than a specific location, a map of the place or trail would be much better." Mira suggested and the other three were a bit surprised by her suggestion. They hadn't even thought of something like that.

Kayda had a thoughtful look on her face and soon spread out her senses.

She stayed like this for a while before coming back to her senses. She raised a finger towards Mira, Maria, and Celaine, and a bright light launched from her finger towards the three of them.

They didn't even try to dodge and it wouldn't have made a difference even if they did. The light hit their foreheads and they grimaced slightly due to a headache, but once that went away they were shocked by what they found inside of their minds.

It was a map, or rather a path, that Kayda seemed to think will bring them the most benefit. The path didn't show them the biomes or anything specific, it only provided them with a sense of direction.

"This should be what you're looking for. I didn't want to spoil your trial by providing you with a map along with all of the things to pay attention to in each biome as that would defeat the purpose. Plus, all of the stuff left here is trash in my eyes so I don't even know what would be helpful to you or not. But I can assure you that the path that I laid out will most likely bring the most benefit to you if you choose to follow it." Kayda said to which they slightly nodded.

Kayda smiled, walked up to Mira, and hugged her.

"I'm going to miss you, Mira, but I do not doubt that you'll survive and meet me again. I look forward to our next meeting and seeing how strong you've become. Also, there's no need to be so tense, I've temporarily solved your little stalker problem." Kayda whispered with a wink.

Mira's aura flared a bit and she frowned while staring at Kayda. Obviously, she knew who this stalker might be, but she didn't think that Kayda would know.

"Elaborate," Mira said with a sharp look in her eyes.

"I've temporarily hidden your presence from some creep and gave him a bit of a warning. But if you want me to actually deal with him I c-" Kayda was cut off there.

"No. He will die by my hands. I will make sure he regrets forcefully reincarnating me so many times." Mira said in a voice that was neither soft nor loud, but it contained her unyielding rage and resolve.

Mira also let it slip that she's been reincarnated, but it's not like it really matters. It's just something that she has no reason to discuss since those lives are now in the past.

Kayda also looked at Mira in surprise as things started to make a lot of sense. She didn't know how long Mira's lived, but she always felt that Mira gave off the feeling of an expert even though she's just a teenager.

If she's being honest, Mira gave off the feeling of a grandma or ancestor that's extremely strict to their grandchildren. Kayda always felt like she was talking to her parents whenever she talked with Mira which made her feel a bit weird.

Now things started to click in her mind and with how perverted that 'Primordial One' is, she's sure that her life has been anything but easy. It's probably been harder than at least 95% of people's lives as that man has a reputation for trying to break females' minds, bodies, and souls as they come crawling to his feet begging for him to stop.

She doesn't know much about his deeds other than some rumors, but she guessed that those rumors didn't even come close to the actual thing. Just the thought of all of the hardships that Mira's had to go through causes a chill to run up her spine. Her rage was about to burst, but she forcefully held it back.

She can't help but feel overwhelming admiration for Mira knowing that her mind is still intact even after all of this time. Her thoughts were stopped there as Mira started to speak.

"If it is as you say, then that's good. I appreciate your concern and hopefully, it lasts long enough for me to prevent him from ever spying on me. He's been a real pain in the ass for a while because of this. But nothing will change unless I personally remove that scourge from the universe. No matter how many years or lifetimes it takes, he will die and I will be the one to do it!" Mira said as she lightly gave her thanks. She didn't want to say too much regarding this matter and knew that even if he did watch her, it didn't really matter until she became an immortal. Mainly because nothing within the mortal realm, no matter how strong, can hope to kill him. Even if she were the strongest in the mortal realm, she would still be an insect in his eyes.

She also didn't know how this would pan out. Mira didn't know if the man would go to more extreme lengths to piss her off or if he would just sit back and wait. If she were to guess, she'd say that he'd go to more extreme lengths since for some reason he seems infatuated with her which is why she wasn't sure how to think of this situation.

She honestly felt it might've been better to just leave things how they were and have her deal with it herself when the time comes as that would surely make things more 'interesting', at least according to him.

But what's done is done and Mira can only go with what's to come. Her thoughts were interrupted by Maria and Celaine coming over to Kayda and giving her a light hug.

"We'll see you again when we're stronger, Kayda! It's been a great time!" Maria exclaimed as her eyes started to tear up a bit.

"I don't know if I'll be able to see you again, but if I'm still with Mira then I'm sure it'll happen. Take care of yourself while we're gone or maybe just take a short nap and we'll be back here to say hi before you know it! Hehe." Celaine said while scratching her nose.

"Hehe, then I guess I'll look forward to that day. Goodbye for now, I'll see you when you become strong enough!" Kayda hugged them and said.

She then backed away from them and stared at them with a bright smile on her face. Mira nodded her head while Maria and Celaine gave bright smiles while waving their hands.

Kayda waved her hand in front of her, causing space to distort around the three of them and they eventually disappeared from her sight.

She gazed at where Mira just stood and let out a deep sigh. Her mind was thinking about the crest that she put in Mira's body along with The Primordial One.

"That's all I can do to hide you from his sight. Get strong, fast, Mira since I don't know how much time this will be able to buy you. I look forward to our next meeting." Kayda muttered to herself while releasing another sigh.
