The days passed by. Amon recovered more and more each day.

During the days of his recovery, he stayed at Bianca's house.

At the present time, even though Mabel spent a night at Bianca's establishment, she also came back on the other days and left in the evening. Of course, she convinced herself it was because of the promise Bianca made to her grandfather, letting her train there. Plus, it was clear she seemed to feel somewhat guilty about what happened to Amon, although deep down she must know he never blamed her for it, nor seemed to have had that kind of thought.

In the special training room, Mabel was mainly sparring against the girls. Her strength was still superior to theirs, as they hadn't managed to have a breakthrough to level 2 yet, while she was already adapting very well to her power. Not to mention the fight in the other world made her solidify the base of her power, now she just needed a little more time until she became experienced at level 2.

Amid the palpable fatigue that marked all the girls, who exuded sweat and remained exhausted on the ground, Bianca stood out with her remarkable vitality.

Bianca, a notable student of the Advanced Mutants, found herself at a level very close to the acclaimed Star Rank, according to her own confidences. Once she reached such a level, she would become an unstoppable force so that even if Amon, her lover, trained alongside the other girls against her, it would be a hard task to make a single drop of sweat sprout on her skin.

Amon, a distant spectator, kept seated in a chair, watching the training with an interested look. Suddenly, Bianca's figure emerged in front of him. A seductive and captivating smile lit up Bianca's face when Amon's eyes met hers, shining like a rising phoenix. Her melodious voice broke the silence by asking: "Do you feel lonely?"

Amon was about to deny it, but something in his gaze changed, taking on an air of pleading and longing, intensified by the mutual love they shared. "Yes... Will you stay with me?"

Surprise replaced Bianca's teasing look. However, the surprise quickly gave way to a soft, enchanting laugh. And then, her response flowed in a cheerful tone: "Of course, why not?"

The conversation between Bianca and Amon unfolded under the undisguised jealous gaze of Barbara and the twins. The fatigue, however, was so great that their attempts at interference failed, as they could barely move.

Maisa cursed internally: 'She wore us out on purpose!'. She was almost certain of it, and interestingly, even Barbara shared this thought.

However, the conversation took its course, and Bianca threw out a question, not in an especially loud or low tone, but loud enough for everyone: "Amon, do you know why I invested so much money that I've been saving in the eggs I gave you and Barbara?"

The question left Amon surprised and motionless, his eyes fixed on her. The same doubt had already arisen in his mind previously. After in-depth research and studies, he realized the immeasurable value of the gift Bianca had given him. Even though they were lovers, it was hard for him to conceive that she would be willing to invest so much in him. Although Amon knew about his fast progress and understood that, in the future, he could assist Bianca, this seemed like a distant horizon at that moment.

Observing the confusion that had settled in Amon's eyes, and the delay in formulating a response, Bianca pouted briefly, quickly replaced by a cheerful giggle. She then advised, "You don't need to delve so deep, just reflect on recent events."

"Recently..." Amon echoed the word, before voicing his suspicion: "Did you receive something of great value from that mysterious person?"

"Smart!" The surprise was now on Bianca's part. Despite giving a hint, the speed at which he deciphered it impressed her. "Yes, I won the advanced and modified version of the spell book for my ascension to the Star Rank. Know that it's a more precious asset than the sum of both eggs. Initially, I planned to use the money I saved to try my luck at the annual auction that takes place on the second floor of the Tower. But, unexpectedly, I received an even better gift."

Bianca's happiness was evident. She was genuinely pleased with what she had received. It was, after all, an improved version of the spell book she used to advance to the Grandmaster Rank. The original book was limited to that level, but now, thanks to the omnipotent being, she possessed something that was not restricted to just the Grandmaster Rank. It was simply wonderful.

Moreover, Bianca, who was accustomed to the spells from the Double Way of the Phoenix Butterfly book, would not only have the ability to continue to use the same spells but now they had been strengthened, becoming at least ten times more powerful!

Upon hearing her explanation, Amon understood. He had undergone a similar experience, though not as spectacular as Bianca's. But it was understandable, considering that Bianca's gift was meant to propel her to an entirely new rank.

"I'm happy for you," Amon said, sincerely.

With her eyes closed, Bianca sported a serene smile, more dazzling than a blossoming flower...

Amon, upon contemplating that smile, felt a stronger palpitation in his chest. 'I love her.' This silent declaration shone in his gaze.

Again, a wave of jealousy swept over the girls as they perceived Amon's expression. If it were directed at them, they would be fine with it, but the reality was that that look was focused on another woman. Even though they had accepted sharing Amon with other women, it was inevitable to feel some discomfort seeing so much love reflected in his eyes when directed at someone other than them.

And even if that woman was Barbara's mother... The girl pouted, but couldn't take her gaze away from Amon. Even though his attention wasn't turned toward her at that moment, she felt invigorated, and her heart pounded harder. Amon's eyes shone so intensely that it felt like they would burn her alive.

'How wonderful it would be if he was just focused on me right now,' Barbara dreamed inwardly.

She wasn't the only one lost in these daydreams. The same thought hit Mabel, but soon a look of confusion crossed her eyes, and, quickly, she shook her head as if it were a rattle. 'What is happening to me? What are these thoughts?' She questioned herself.
