"Huft~ they finally die"

Said Taufik while seeing the Crater. Without seeing any trace of that, two Minotaurs left.

"No... It's more like they were sent to the Void... Nah~ Everything is good"

Said Taufik again and then looked at where Caldwell and Sylph were.

"HY! HOW LONG YOU GUYS WANT TO STAY THERE? LET'S CONTINUE OUR WAY"

He had to shout because they were standing quite far away behind, and Caldwell, who heard his cousin call him, Immediately got out from any Thought he had right now.

"C-coming"

Said Caldwell and then moved his leg to approach Taufik, followed by Sylph, who still stayed silent.

-------------

"... Bro, What kind of magic did you do to those two minotaurs before? Even I can feel that I'm being sucked by that black-purple Orb that you made"

Asked Caldwell while on their way toward the door.

"Hmm~ do you want a serious answer or a Joking answer like before?"

"If I said I want a serious answer, will you say it?"

"... I don't know"

"... As I thought... what is that? What makes you can't tell me about it? Can't you trust me? I swear, I will not tell anyone if you say so, is it not enough?"

Asked Caldwell like children who want to know everything about the world and how it works. It seemed like he really wanted to know Taufik's answer, but hearing that, Taufik stopped for a moment and looked at Caldwell.

"Caldwell, my Cousin, It's not like I don't trust you, but sometimes, there's a thing that is only meant for you to keep to yourself and cannot say to others, even though that other person is your own family, it's what we call secret"

"..."

Hearing this, Caldwell immediately looked gloomy; he could not deny what Taufik said because what he said was true: secrets are there to be kept, and if the secret is told to other people, it will no longer be a secret.

"Pfft~ Don't be like that; if other people saw us right now, they would be confused about who is older between the two of us...

Taufik smiled faintly and then patted Caldwell's shoulder again.

... Secrets are meant to be kept, but sometimes, they also need to be told to others. Later, when I trust you more, not only as part of a family but also as a friend, colleague, and best friend when that happens, I, perhaps, will tell you my secret; you just need to wait and prepare yourself when the time comes, okay?"

Caldwell also smiled faintly when he heard Taufik's words, he understood what Taufik was trying to convey because he was the same, so Caldwell took a deep breath and then said to Taufik.

"... I'll wait then"

Still with the same smile, Taufik then said.

"... That's more like it... Alright~ Let's Open this Damn door and finish our business here quickly so we can back quicker"

"You're right; we can't make Grandma wait for too long, don't we?"

------------

With his hands on the door, Taufik is Ready to push the door open, but then Sylph says something.

"Sir... "

But before Sylph could say everything she wanted to say, Taufik spoke first as if he already knew what Sylph wanted to say.

"I know Sylph, Banaspati can bear it any longer, right? Don't worry, with me here, nothing will happen to him, because it's also my task to keep him okay"

Taufik said, sounding a little arrogant, but if Taufik said it, for some reason, Sylph felt that everything he said would happen as he wanted.

Fate works in mysterious ways, but no matter what a person does, Fate will definitely happen, as well as the four Ancient Spirits, their Fate without Taufik's intervention will be a disaster for all living things on earth, their existence without Taufik's intervention should be like four horsemen who are a sign that the end of the world is near, this is where Taufik's Title as someone who opposes Fate works, as long as he continues to intervene, the end of the world will continue to be delayed, but it will only be delayed, and will never be canceled, because it is the essence that the end of the world will happen, because it is not Fate that determines it, but the Creator himself who has determined it, Fate just determines when it will happen, he is just like a person who has to press a button at a certain time.

And to what extent Taufik can delay it? Is still a mystery.

"... Alright"

Said Sylph who sounded a little better after hearing Taufik's reassuring words.

Without further delay, Taufik immediately pushed the two large doors which seemed impossible to open, but Taufik managed to open them without any difficulty.

*creaking!*

An unusual creaking sound was heard as the large door opened.

*Woosh!*

The hot wind immediately flowed out from the gap in the door that was still not wide open, and a reddish-yellow light illuminated Taufik's face, who was still pushing the large door.

Taufik immediately looked at Caldwell to make sure he was okay, he let out a sigh of relief when he saw that the Barrier he had installed around Caldwell was working quite well, after making sure of Caldwell's condition, Taufik pushed the large door again and after a few moments, he managed to open the door completely.

What greeted them behind the large door was the same as what was in their minds, a volcanic crater filled with hot lava that occasionally rose as if someone had deliberately thrown rocks into the crater.

But all their gazes were currently fixated on a large ball of fire that was burning with a golden color with a little black fire that was floating in the middle of the volcanic crater, But every now and then the black fire seemed to want to fill the Fireball, but the next moment the Golden fire seemed to fight and push away the black fire, this happened every few seconds and continued to happen, this was a sign that Banaspati was still struggling to fight the influence of the Corrupted Mana.

But with each change, the black fire seemed to become more dominant and the golden fire needed a long time to push away the black fire.

# A/N- "Just an info, Banaspati is a mystical creature in some Indonesian folklore, and as I described above, he has a form like a fireball. In folklore, Banaspati is described as an evil spirit or ghost that looks like a fireball or a fire vortex. Banaspati is often found in temple architecture on the island of Java, depicted as a relief in the guise of a giant head.

I wanted to add Indonesian elements to the four Ancient Spirits, that's why instead of choosing Salamander, which is often used to depict Fire Spirits, I chose to use Banaspati, back to the story"

"... Brother... "

Said Sylph while looking at that existence shaped like a fireball.

"Is that the Ancient Fire Spirit? How I say it, he looks... Ordinary?"

Caldwell commented on Banaspati's appearance, which indeed looked ordinary, and indeed, Banaspati did look ordinary because he was only shaped like, not like, he was indeed just a ball of fire.

"... But he the one who created that monster who almost killed you and that two Minotaurs, you know?"

"..."

Caldwell immediately fell silent after hearing that from Taufik.

"Ahaha~ now you afraid... Okay then, how do I start this?"

Said Taufik while thinking about what method he should use to help Banaspati.

'... Should I use the same method that I accidentally discovered while I was taking care of Undine? Alright, let's cut the connection between him and Corrupted Mana first'

Thought Taufik and then looked at Caldwell and Sylphy.

"I will change places with Banaspati for a while, wait for me here, and don't go anywhere, this won't take long"

"Understand"

"... I beg you, please save my brother, sir"

Caldwell and Sylph answered in turn.

*Nod*

With a nod, Taufik then approached Banaspati by using a transparent path he created with his Imagination magic.

The closer he got to Banaspati, the more he felt the heat he radiated, but it was not enough to have any effect on Taufik.

Only one meter away from Banaspati did Taufik stop walking.

'False World- White Room'

With that, Taufik and Banaspati immediately disappeared from Caldwell and Sylph's sight.

---------------

In a plain white room that had nothing but a chair that Taufik was currently sitting on and a large golden fireball, Taufik sat while looking at the golden fireball as if he was waiting for something, this had been going on for a few minutes.

A few moments later, the fireball slowly descended to the floor and then slowly shrank, and a few moments later, the fireball began to take on a humanoid shape but was still fire.

Slowly but surely the humanoid fire creature began to look like a human, a real human with complete human characteristics.

He has long Red Hair with a hint of gold that he lets down, similar to a burning fire, and Golden Eyes similar to what his Brother, the Ancient Earth Spirit, has.

His handsome face even beats the handsomeness of top actors and models.

Its body has a perfect shape, not too big like the ancient earth spirit, but not too small either.

He was wearing the clothes that monks usually wear, a white Kasaya, with gold on each end.

The golden eyes stared at Taufik who was also staring at him, and without any greeting, he immediately put his palms together.

"... I Thank you on behalf of my three siblings, Thank you for helping us, Benefactor"

Hearing this, Taufik immediately laughed softly.

"... Your Character Setting is a bit wrong, don't you think?"

"Yes?"

....
