"Finally, it's here!"
"Hoho, you finally bought me a good spear."
"Eggs Monarch, you better have a good gift this time. Please no more egg bombs!"
"Man, someone sent me condoms last month. You should be grateful for what you got."
"The fuck you mean I look skinnier than tomorrow?! I dare you to say that on my face instead of sending messages!"
In team 5's camp, shouts and conversations echoed through the place, filling the air with energy despite everything that happened till now.
2 days have passed quickly since we returned from the mansion and found out about Ruby's death.
We buried her head but kept her core with us without absorbing it, deciding to take it to Eldoria instead of leaving it in whatever this place was.
The demons had only one core on their heads, and even though we call their power antimana, it can work like both mana and aura.
The next day we gathered in team 5's camp with the prisoner we had. We did some trades with the other teams and told them about the parasites and the unknown creature that killed Ruby.
We wanted to know what it was from Cecil, but until this moment — even though Braham healed his body and mind completely — he was still unconscious.
Having nothing to do, we decided to keep some people guarding him, team 2's prisoner and everyone else that couldn't fight until the others kill the parasites.
This day, we would take our gifts for maybe the last time, and the next day — we would end all this.
I pressed on the first screen first just to make it disappear.

Yeah, I had many special viewers now.
They helped me too much and were even speaking to each other using messages for planning and all.
If there was a problem with them, it would be their CHOICE OF NAMES!
Like the hell was my uncle supposed to mean?! I was too embarrassed when I said his name loudly when I saw it for the first time. I couldn't forget how much Zorath and Cecil laughed at me!
And there was the person that couldn't even think about a name and just wrote some random letters!
'Anyway, let's see the messages now.'
From the 7 messages I got, I ignored my uncl— I ignored that specific person and the eclipse monarch and selected all the others.
[Night Terror: Choose that cat gift. I made her save for it from the start and trust me, you will like it. Oh, and tell that 40th winner bastard that if he cursed my mother again then I promise to find his planet and feed him those cursed fingers even if it took me decades.]
[The 40th Season Winner: Your next move would be threatening to find my planet! I can predict what an idiot like you would say easily. Hey kid, ask that son of bitch about the item he talked about for months!]
"...."
I will never understand those two.
I cleared my throat and opened my mouth: "Night Terror is telling you to stop cursing his mother and he got the item now. That's all."
Of course I didn't dare to say their messages while surrounded by the other teams. That would be embarrassing as hell!
I started reading the other 3 messages.
[Fateweaver: I can see your success at the end of the road, but you won't like the price you will have to pay. May your perseverance never shatter.]
"Can't you tell me something useful once!" That was what I wanted to say, but I wasn't that rude.
And maybe I was too scared to offend someone that had a name related to fate.
So instead, I just said thanks and continued reading.
[The Nameless Devil: I sent you a spatial ring that would significantly help you. You just have to rise! Rise and get me that reward!]
"Thank you, Nameless devil, for the ring. I will use it well." I said while bowing slightly.
[Space Queen: I will take you as my student even though you are a cultivator. I will wait for you in the academy. And ignore the cringe man that speaks with his sword. I will teach you better than him.]
"...."
"We can talk later." I whispered, trying to not let master Kai hear that, but I underestimated his hearing.
"Who was that? And don't think about lying." Master Kai said after appearing behind me suddenly. He crossed his arms and stared directly in my eyes.
My back started sweating. I kept opening and closing my mouth until finally I gave up and told him the message.
"Hmm, I think I'm sure now." He nodded multiple times, then took a deep breath, looked at the sky and shouted: "LUNARA! DO YOU THINK THAT I WON'T KNOW YOU?!"
"What?!"
The people around us looked at him with strange looks and whispered to eachother, but I ignored them.
"Do you know her?" I asked, my eyes wide from shock.
Master Kai sighed and rubbed his temple. "Of course I know her. She was my roommate in the academy. There is no way I won't know her."
My eyes narrowed dangerously, but before I could open my mouth, he hissed: "Don't even think about that. I know what that look means."
I shut my mouth and didn't dare to say my thoughts. I noticed Yama hovering dangerously near my head so I just stayed silent.
Master Kai's eyes lit up suddenly. Flicking his fingers he said: "I got an idea. I will name you and give you my surname. That way she won't try to steal you from me."
"N-name?" I asked, confusion visible in my voice.
At the age of 18, the nameless orphans like me could name themselves. But they won't have a surname .
But now master kai was saying that he wanted to name me? And was it even possible to give me his surname? And why did he say it casually as if he was naming a dog?!
"Don't forget I was working in the government." Master Kai suddenly said, as if he could read my mind.
Master Kai fell in deep thought for a moment before saying: "See your gifts until I think about a good name. It may take some time."
I nodded and opened the gifts.
A hovering screen appeared in front of me.

"No way…" I murmured, reading the potion description again and again.
Without hesitation, I pressed on the potion first.
Instantly, a small vial appeared in front of me. The liquid inside it was made of multiple separated colors like a stored beautiful rainbow.
"What is that?" master Kai suddenly asked while tilting his head.
"It is supposed to help me sense my affinity!" I answered, the excitement was visible in my voice.
"Then what are you waiting for? Drink it!"
"Yes sir!"
I opened the vial and drank it in one gulp.
A mixed flavour entered my mouth. It was bitter, sweet, salty, hot and many more.
I sat on the ground and kept trying to sense my affinity.
All I could do was wait until its effect started.
