Mikhail's POV

I rushed to my house, thankfully I somehow able to safely enter without getting caught, I took of my disguise, unlock my room, and went to bed.

"psst... Mikhail" I heard a whisper

"h-huh?! Mister AJ? "

"yes it's me, look to your left! "

"what the- you scared me! "

"hehe sorry,"

"where have you been? "

"what do you mean?  I've been right behind you all this time, you're the one ignoring me! " he pouted,

I only stared at him, he awkwardly laugh,

"Mister AJ, can I ask you another question ?"

"sure thing kid!"

"why do you chose to envy a mere goldfish? I mean you know, you can chose to envy other things"

AJ only stood quiet, I felt like I shouldn't have ask that question, I wanted to told him that it's okay to not answer but he cut me off,

"Mikhail, do you know the story about the Seven World Balanced? "

"I do know"

"do you know that they have enemies that resembles the seven deadly sins? "

"yes I know about that"

"in the times when I'm still alive, the people in the town I live at worship the heir of Heavens, Kindness, for their protection, "

"and Kindness's enemies are the Heir of Envy, I chose to envy a lowly being because I'm afraid if I envy another human, they'll think I've submitted to the heir of Envy. "

I nodded, it was an understandable explanation.

"one more thing mister AJ"

"hmm? "

"it's just a simple question but, which heavenly virtues is the one that is assigned to protect the place I stand?"

"I believe it's the Heir of Temperance, and their enemies are the Heir of gluttony. "

"I see... Well that's all I had to ask, it's getting late I should go to bed, mister AJ to, you should rest peacefully in the afterlife, you don't need to follow me around"

"it's okay, just go to sleep my discipline! "

"your wha-"

"I'm referring you as by far the only one who's able to perform the technique other than me. "

"okay okay goodnight"

"here, goodnight! "

Third person POV

The younger boy easily drifted to sleep, while the male spirit stayed for a while, observing the boy.

The male spirit smiled and caressed the boy cheeks as he sleeps peacefully,

"He really does resembles the Heir, don't you think so? "

The male spirit smiled once again, then he went outside, going through walls as he doesn't have a body anymore.

The spirit then went to a far place, in the middle of the Asyll forest, he went to a lake that looks untouched,

He then approach what appears to be an old man in their late 60's that was sitting near the late, the spirit sat beside him,

"hey old man, thinking of retiring? "
