When the two stopped crying, they saw behind me Guy and Velzard had arrived. Their reason for following me back to was pretty clear, I wasn't informed on what had happened during my little tantrum.
They wanted to do this all together to get opinions from each perspective, "Why does this feel like an intervention."
Guy replied to me quickly, "because it is. You have a problem Simon."
Following Guy's straight forward declaration, the discussion began. Firstly, my instinct telling that nothing good happened after I blacked out was completely correct. I had become something akin to an unintelligent monster, something who only seeks to destroy and devour.
Secondly, in my berserk state, I had apperantly used my full power. I had never went to my maximum but apparently even Guy was struggling to restrain me, so it's good to get a somewhat accurate measure of my power.
Thirdly, out of all the times that I performed an incredible feat that scared other major powers in the world and caused Guy a diplomatic headache, this was the worst one.
In a couple of days there's going to be a another Walpurgis, with Guy being the proposer and his supporters being Leon and Milim. Leon was probably already aware that I was the one who caused such a commotion, but the fact that Milim agreed surprised me. This wasn't particularly important, it just gave me a sense of schedenfraude to see Guy was such a headache.
Lastly, apparently I had used a new power in my fight that completely dominated the battlefield and caused me to nearly make Guy my bitch. Both Guy and Velzard were very reluctant to say what power this was and stated that it's something that I shouldn't have.
" Simon, can you show us some of the stuff you've been working in here?" Guy voiced with a question but spoke sternly and authoritively as if it is a command.
"Ok… do I have a choice?" I asked slightly fearful of Guy's tone.
"No, we just want to see what you've been doing here."

I began to give them a tour of the mansion-sized lab. They paid careful attention to everything that I had created. The spirit vacuum, the army of autonomous dolls, the vault containing 3 million nation-destroying weapons, the automatic spacetime laser array, the attack drones, the elemental titans and the incomplete iron tomb in my basement.
At some point, even Guy with his high processing abilities felt his brain being fried, " What the fuck are you doing here."
"I'm having fun." I said in exasperation, "I'd like to ask, why did you guys want to see my lab, it's clearly not because of interest, if anything I'd say you guys are slightly afraid."
Velzard responded in Guy's place, "We just wanted to know what you have been doing, because…"
"…Because we wanted to know if your experiments were the reason you suddenly gained newfound power."
"Why didn't you just ask me?"
"Guy's still sensitive about the statement you said about him and Leon. His words were that you had entered your rebellious phase and much more prone to keeping secrets and lying to us."
" That's insane, all I said was the truth, I didn't mean to insult you." My response caused Guy to almost jump me. I went on with the quirky that intrigued me the most and was about to make my head burst if I didn't ask, " Can you guys PLEASE tell me what is going on now!"
Velzard just sighed, " The power you used is called stardust." Her answer caused my jaw to drop, " By your facial expression, I'm guessing you already know what that is?"
" I used the power of god itself." I immediately went to the balcony in a white robe and makeshift brown hair and beard and began kneeling to the sky, " Rejoice to your Messiah."
I felt a hit on my head from behind me, " Don't go saying stuff like that you arrogant human." Guy fired back from my current actions and earlier insult.
Velzard attempted to lighten the conversation, "The point of the matter is that you somehow, not only came into contact with my brother's power, but can also safely use it without any harm to yourself."
I undid Celestial haki to check the power that my body was outputting without interference, what I saw was quite surprising to me and everyone near me. My energy and gone under both a quantitative and qualitative change; The spiritual pressure I give off had thickened densely, now moving like a floating liquid, also the colour had changed, previously my aura was a golden yellow, now it's a combination of bright silvery white and pitch black.
This can basically be considered a pseudo evolution. My existence had gone through a qualitative change but I didn't become a new species thus the use of the term, pseudo evolution.
I stopped constraining my aura and let it flow naturally to see what would happen. Note-to-self, bad idea…
My aura enveloped the entire forest, causing a flood of energy to terrorize the inhabitants. I quickly absorbed in my aura again and turned to the two behind me with a strained smile, four now, Amanises and Nyx decided to join us the moment I did something stupid.
I simply sighed at the issue.

After Guy and Velzard left and Treyni came in with another scolding. I decided to go back to freeloading off Leon, more accurately I wanted to check up on Shizu, she was really worried about me the last time I saw them so I should probably assure her I'm ok.
I slammed the doors open and enthusiastically sang my entrance to Leon's castle, "HELLO!" The castle was completely empty.
I teleported away to find Shizu training again. I landed in the middle causing the fighting to stop and everyone to look at me in horror, "Why is everyone looking at me like that?"
"It's your aura."
Upon Leon's response I had realized I forgot to activate Celestial haki, "oh, oops, my bad." My aura became null and I scratched my head in embarrassment.
"Mr. Simon, are you ok. Amanises said that you had undergone extreme therapy that caused you to go unconscious." Shizu asked with worry.
"Awe I'm fine." The rest of the magic knights were still trying to wrap their heads around the sheer power I emit simply by existing, they had finally realized the gap in power between us.
Leon wasn't detered though, "Would you mind telling what that catastrophy coming from the frozen continent was."
"That was simply my clash with Guy." My words completely broke Leon's indifferent composure, "You'll learn about it at Walpurgis. I'm too tired to explain it"
