"Did the young lord just use magic? I didn't feel any magic behind it."
Unable to resist, I questioned the young lord, "How did you do that?"
"That? I just used the skill I recently awakened, called Manipulation..."
Upon hearing this, I couldn't help but think, 'Manipulation? Hm... I guess the young Lord does have talent after all.'
It seems the young Lord has been blessed by the will of the Heavenly Realm; I must report this to the Goddess.

Matthew's Perspective
After defeating Bladewyrm, I turned to Susan and said, "I can train with you now, huh?"
"Of course, young Lord, but first, I'll wake Bladewyrm."
Oops! I forgot that I knocked Bladewyrm out...
Seeing Bladewyrm unconscious on the ground, I couldn't help but smile wryly.
Susan used her powers to awaken Bladewyrm, who looked around in confusion at first.
Once Bladewyrm remembered he should be fighting me, he stood up in a fighting stance again.
"Bladewyrm, the fight is already over. You lost," Susan reminded him.
"I... I lost?" Bladewyrm's deep voice sounded confused before he slumped to the ground, saying, "I am incompetent, my Lord!"
"It's alright, Bladewyrm, our Little Lord is the son of the Goddess, so it's normal to be defeated by him today," Susan reassured Bladewyrm with a smile.
Bladewyrm seemed to acknowledge it before Susan, using her power, conjured a magic circle into which Bladewyrm entered. After a glow, both the magic circle and Bladewyrm disappeared...
Once Bladewyrm vanished from Archangel Susan's sight, she stared at me with a smile and remarked, "It looks like the young Lord has improved during the months of training. After just a few months, you're already able to defeat
Bladewyrm, one of my summoned creatures that can destroy cities in the mortal realms."
Genuinely surprised, I exclaimed, "For real? That Silveradude can destroy cities in mortal realms!?"
Upon hearing me call 'Bladewyrm' "Silveradude," Susan chuckled, covering her grin. She looked at me with amusement and said, "It seems the young Lord has grown attached to Bladewyrm, giving him a nickname."
Uh... I guess. I've been battling the shining silver dude for the past few months, and I've started to gain instincts and predict his next move. To be honest, I wouldn't have been able to defeat the guy completely if not for my recently awakened ability.
But that guy being so terrifying that he can destroy cities in the mortal realms... That guy is bad news.
Good thing he didn't take fighting me seriously, huh?
Susan saw my complicated expressions, then she explained, saying, "As you can see, young Lord, although Bladewyrm indeed has the ability to destroy cities in the mortal realms, it doesn't mean he has the same ability in the Heavenly Realm. Even the young Lord can destroy half of the world in the mortal realms if the young Lord were able to descend. But gods descending is against the law of the Heavenly Realm."
When I heard that, I kind of get it now, but me being able to be so overpowered in the mortal realms? Wouldn't it be cool if I could just be the hidden overpowered boss in the mortal realms, playing with the lives of mortals!?
Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to experience the cool feeling of being the overpowered hidden final boss since I couldn't descend there.
Well, I couldn't blame the Will of the Heavenly Realm or something; after all, if gods could descend to the mortal realms as they wished, who knows how much chaos it could bring to the mortal realms?
It's not exaggerated to say that the balance would be chaotic. The mortal realms, already struggling with the demons, descendants of the Angels that descended upon them, would face even more challenges if gods of all kinds decided to descend.
"Now, young lord, your sparring partner is me. Let me see your improvement!" Susan smiled as she spoke.
I prepared myself seriously, and then Susan, with a calm expression, appeared before me before I could realize.
Huh?
Before I knew it, I was about to be struck by a wooden sword.
Are you kidding me!? I didn't even prepare myself properly. How could I expect that sudden appearance in front of me!? I didn't even notice it!!!My thoughts raced as I felt the sword attack my head. I managed to evade it, but the sword struck my shoulder.
Crack
Ugh!!! I can feel my bones being crushed! I thought as I moaned in pain, looking at Susan, who seemed to be not revealing any emotions.
Seeing that she appeared to be looking at me with amusement, I distanced myself, holding my injured shoulder.
