The Lost Fruits

While Ace was on his way to the center of the world, many things were happening around the world, good or bad things.

But what happened to Elsa who was left in Atlantis. How is she doing? you might ask.

Well. Currently, in the jade palace, Elsa was sitting cross-legged meditating with closed eyes and serious expression. Around her floated a giant merman. He was of course Poseidon.

As he observed Elsa, he nodded "That is right, try to understand what Ice can do, Ice is not just a mere weapon or magic power." Poseidon spoke as his words rang inside Elsa's head "Ice preserves...Ice protects...Ice creates." With each word, a little of snow started Falling down on Elsa's body from nowhere.

"Yes...feel ice through your mind and body, watch it as it reveals its true form," Poseidon spoke as he tapped his trident on the ground.

A few seconds later, Elsa's eyes opened sharply with her eyes glowing blue and a cold aura surrounding her body as she hovered slowly above the ground.

Poseidon smiled "Great, now you have truly awakened your powers!" He said.

Elsa descended and smiled "All thanks to you, Master!" She said as she started feeling her powers going through her body.

Poseidon shook his head "There is nothing to thank me for, a part of your success is due to your previous training with the Flame boy." He said.

"Ace?"

"Yeah, whatever his name is." Poseidon didn't really like Ace, not because of their fight or anything, but...

'Must. Protect. Daughter.' His fatherly instincts were screaming at him when he "listens" on his daughter and Elsa's conversation about Ace, the tone they spoke in wasn't something a father liked.

"Alright, pack your things, we are goi--" before Poseidon can finish his words, a gust of winds passed by him and he frowned and grunted "Grr... What now? Hermes."

"Fahaha!!" A high pitched laugh echoed from the corners of the room, Elsa looked around and found no one.

Poseidon looked up at the ceiling and saw a handsome man in simple white clothes and a crown of roses on his head "Never took you for a teacher, uncle."

"Little runt, get down from my ceiling, and tell me why you came here?" Poseidon pulled his trident and a water bullet shot up at Hermes, but the young blinked down to the ground evading the attack.

Elsa came behind Poseidon and peeked at Hermes who she shockingly found standing at her face near Poseidon who tried to punch him away. But he dodged that again.

"Fahaha! You are getting slower, uncle, is age getting to you?" Hermes went to a chair and sat on it, much to Poseidon's disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.

"But enough with the jokes, father wants you back at the mountain for a meeting," Hermes said seriously.

Poseidon frowned "Why?" He asked.

Hermes shrugged his shoulders "Apparently it is something personal." He answered.

"Well..." Hermes jumped off his chair "The meeting is tomorrow. See you there...you are allowed to bring one person as a companion" Then his eyes shifted to Elsa "Maybe...she will do." Hermes blinked into a blinding light, the only thing that remained in his place was Hermes' echo "Tomorrow."

Elsa looked at Poseidon who was not pleased at all "Master?" She asked.

Poseidon sighed tiredly "What a luck..." He mumbled. Thinking about Hermes' words, Poseidon shifted his gaze to Elsa and his switched back to his teacher mode "oh yeah...if a meeting is to be held, Boreas will be there, I can ask him for more information about your powers." He said.

"...?" Elsa tilted her head "You will take me to mount Olympus?!" She was shocked "But I am a Norse Pantheon follower!" Elsa spoke in worry, she doesn't want any trouble from her Lords in the future, and as far as knows, the Norse Pantheon is a very possessive and jealous group.

"No problem, just come with me, maybe I will take my daughter there too." Poseidon touched his beard and spoke.

After that, Poseidon and Elsa wrapped their training session there and decided to call it a day and prepare for their journey.

As for Ace, back on the ship. Ace, Blue, M.o.a.na, and Maui stood on the deck with shocked expression "No matter how many times I see it, it is still huge!!" Blue spoke.

"You still didn't see what is inside," Maui spoke with a displeased expression.

M.o.a.na dropped her spear to the ground "So...this is...the center of the world!" She mumbled slowly.

"But isn't this a little bit...too huge!!" Ace spoke with wide eyes. What was in front of them was a giant island that has a very high ground level, "This is more or less a sky island." He said, looking up, he sees from the edge something like a waterfall.

"Well...what did you expect, after all, this Island is called Jutengard" Blue shook his head "Home of all Titans!"
