**[Ravan’s Encounter at the Main Table]**

Ravan approached the main table, where two figures were already seated.

“So, it failed, boss…” the taller man spoke without even glancing at Ravan.

“Was it Vale’s strength, or did the newcomer cause you trouble?” asked the second man, his tone sharp with curiosity.

“Yes, the newcomer did cause some issues,” Ravan admitted, still shaken, “but that wasn’t the main problem. It was Vale’s power—he awakened it, the Creator’s Magic. And I fear that boy, Aiden, may also inherit it.” Both Mark and Amkit were visibly shocked, rising to their feet in alarm.

“What are you saying, Boss?” Amkit asked, disbelief clear in his voice.

“It can’t be… no… no… no… Creator’s Magic? Is… it the same as yours?” Mark questioned, his eyes wide with fear.

“No…” Ravan responded, taking a seat as the others in the room listened intently. “The Creator’s Magic consists of the power to create, edit, or destroy. Its potency depends on the user’s willpower. As of now, only two people can wield it—myself and now Vale. Vale used the power of Edit to erase the very existence of my skeleton army. He changed the fact that they were even born, freeing them from the cycle of life and death. I suspect he might also be able to use the power to create, though I’m not certain about destroy.”

“What?! So that’s what happened…” Mark said, trying to process the revelation.

“There are only two ways to gain the power of the Creator: either awaken it and train it, or take it forcefully from someone who already possesses it,” Ravan continued, growing angrier. “It’s Vale’s fault that I can only use the destroy feature of the Creator’s Magic, and even then, at only 50% capacity. I still remember… he has no heart. He literally killed his only friend instead of saving him, though there was no way to save him anyway. I had Vale within my grasp, about to seize his full power, but because the person who held it died, I couldn’t claim it all. I couldn’t train this power any further.”

“Oh, that was before we met, wasn’t it, Boss?” Amkit asked, trying to follow the story.

“Yes, back when I traveled alone, conquering planets one after another. It was before the birth of the First Savior. At that time, Vale was at his peak—he was a bigger monster than I am. I had already died three times,” Ravan’s voice trembled with anger, “which means I can only die three more times before I lose over 70% of my power. Every time I died, Vale was always there.”

“Calm down, Boss!” Mark urged, noticing the unconscious bodies of their comrades. “Don’t forget, your power of destruction can go berserk if you get too angry.”

Ravan regained his composure, glancing around at his unconscious men. “(Chuckles) What a bunch of low-level fellows they are.”

**[Scene Change: Earth]**

Aiden sat at his desk, staring intently at his savings.

“(Disappointed) I’m low on money…”

Vale, standing behind Aiden, glanced at the money. “Ah… low on money. (Chuckles) Well, money is important. Hey, Aiden,” Vale made a funny, childish face, “say… do you want money?”

Aiden suddenly turned around, his expression dead serious. “Of course!”

“That was fast.”

“I’ll use the Creator’s power to create a credit card with unlimited money, and don’t worry—it’ll work everywhere. It just depends on my willpower, and you already know my power works on Earth. So, rest assured.”

“You cheater…”

“(Serious) Hey… who are you calling a cheater? (Funny face) I am… ah… (thinking hard) um… yes, I am cheating.”

“Well, if you can do it, I’m not against you.”

“Maybe someone was calling me a cheater a moment ago…”

“Forget it. Just do it (excited).”

**[At the Shop]**

“Payment successful,” the shopkeeper said.

Aiden and Vale were at the grocery store, picking up some items.

“Mission accomplished,” Vale said, flashing a victory sign (invisible to others).

“It’s not that bad (evil smile),” Aiden muttered.

“Just don’t overuse it,” Vale warned.

“(Childish face) O… okay… just… just a little.”

“He’s completely lost it (chuckles)… Maybe I should’ve been like this from the start,” Vale thought, a tinge of sadness in his heart.
