Angel"s voice sounded like that of a perky little bird and Elric could not help but glance in surprise. Slowly, his gaze s.h.i.+fted from the smiling little girl to his surroundings."It seems like I am back to the human realm..." He realized.
Smelling the air, Elric noticed the subtle scent of the hot weather with a stench of dried hays and some smoked carp cooking from the outside. He also noticed the s.p.a.cious room he was laying down from, a warm and fuzzy blanket covering half of his body and a wide-open wodden window on his left.
Quickly, Elric noticed two other people just standing at the door.
There was a mature-looking-man that greatly resembled the young girl beside him a lot. That man greeted Elric with a warm smile while holding his cowboy hat and nodding slightly - a natural gesture from a full-blown Texan.
The other one crossing his arms beside the father was a grumpy looking teenage boy around fifteen years of age. He had obvious freckles dotting his face and scanned Elric with a suspicious look.
"Sup! Sleepyhead you finally "woken!" The tall man with a bright turquoise eye together with an obvious Texan accent greeted him energetically.
"How you feelin? You must have travelled far, judgin" from yo look. I"m sure you an Asian. A Filipino perhaps?" He added presumably.
"Uhm...yeah. Where... am I?" Elric replied in the English language. As expected for a Filipino who uses English as their second language.
"I knew it. Name"s Romeo by the way, and welcome to Texas mate! Found you floating unconscious back at the Colorado river while me, and mah little Angel who"s standin" beside you, were on our way home. How"d you ended floatin" back there "nyway?" Romeo inquired as he sat beside Elric and checking on his temperature.
Elric felt awkward after feeling Romeo"s hand touching his head. It"s been quite a long time since he felt a helping human hand.
"You look perfectly fine now and it"s really incredible considering how close to being a dead person you were when we found you. Not to mention your body was bleedin like crazy that you did a pretty good job inkin" the river red!" Romeo blabbered while Elric was too busy immersing himself in his thoughts.
His face was calm but deep inside, he had plenty of things he was trying to sort out.
He never expected to return to the human realm too early. With the Elemental Authorities not complete, there is an incredibly high risk of him losing his self-control again once the corrupted Ancestral Dragon essence spikes again. He still had to go back to the Elemental realm as soon as possible, if not for that d.a.m.ned being who proudly declared himself as the G.o.d of the Elemental Realm.
"Uhmm.. If you would please excuse me." Knowing that he needs to go back to the Elemental Realm as soon as possible, Elric did a quick information scan from the World Knowledge and found a way to open up a portal to the Elemental Realm. He needs to leave this place quickly.
"Uhm, thank you for your help and I really appreciate it. If you don"t mind, can I please be by myself for a mome-"
"Sure-sure! No proby"~ Let"s go, Romel and Angy baby. Let"s give this young man some more rest." Romeo quickly replied without letting Elric finish his words. He dragged Angel and her bigger brother outside and quickly closed the door.
"And just in case you hungry, we got some smoked carps and salmon right by the kitchen. Don"t be shy to come out and eat with us, hear" me?" Romeo added. Elric smiled and nodded in confirmation.
Romeo knew that he must do whatever it takes to help and gain some more favor from this man knowing he could be a potential human with the so-called G.o.d Blood. A man that could possibly change their lives forever and bring them enermous fortune, ofcouse, Elric have long noticed this kind of behavior and he understood the motive naturally.
He was, after all, a father who is looking out for himself and his family. Elric would make sure to come back and repay them for their kindness; soon after he finished his Elemental Authority collection.
Seeing the energetic family finally out of the room, Elric quickly stood up from the bed and faced the empty s.p.a.ce beside the bed, the opened window suddenly closed behind him with his simple thought.
"Hhm!~"

With a hum, he created an isolation barrier to hide his aura and his physical appearance. This way, any spies looking at him from the distance will not be able to see him. Slowly he raised his right arm and conjured his Elemental powers.
SWOOM!~
Instantly, Elric"s right hand was suddenly covered in flame - instantly increasing the temperature of the room and brightening his surroundings. If only Romeo and his children remained, they would have shouted in panic seeing Elric"s arms covered in brightly burning fire.
Without any sign of hesitation, Elric used his burning hand to slash the empty s.p.a.ce and immediately, a small s.p.a.cial crack appeared with a glimpse of the majestic purple sky inside - it was the azure of the Elemental Realm.
Knowing the limited ways to enter the elemental realms, Elric used the elemental essence of his burning hands as an access card to summon a s.p.a.cial crack to enter the Elemental realm with a simple swipe.
Seeing the success of his move, Elric was about to enter the Elemental realm when an unseen barrier powerfully repelled Elric as if rejecting him from entering the s.p.a.cial crack.
BOOOM!~
Elric"s figure was unexpectedly sent flying outside leaving along with a broken window - his isolation barrier was broken at the same time.
