As Akasha was relaxing preparing to pay attention to the other geniuses, Gaelan was still trying to figure out who this mysterious person is.
'How could he finish so fast? 'The steps to Heaven' aren't ordinary in the slightest especially for these talents who at most has reached the first realm of power. The fastest recorded time was an hour at best, and this guy finished in about 8 minutes?!'
Gaelan thought all this while looking intently at Akasha.
'HAHAHA, MAYBE THESES EXAMS WON'T BE SO BORING AFTER ALL' while thinking this Gaelan disappeared from his spot then moved closer to Akasha.
As if he didn't notice the absolutely massive man who just appeared next to him, Akasha, kept eating his grapes while looking below.
Gaelan noticing this took a chug of his liquor then spoke.
"HAHA KID, YOU'RE PRETTY INTERESTING. WHAT'S YOUR NAME?" Gaelan spoke while laughing. he was talking as if he was standing in the middle of a battlefield.
HE LOUD AS FUCK!
"Hm?" Turning his attention to Gaelan, Akasha was beginning to become irritated again.
'First you try throwing your weight around. Secondly, you are clearly disturbing my peace with my dear Luna. AND WHY ARE YOU SO FUCKING LOUD!!!!' Akasha was trying to keep his cool. He really wanted to beat the hell out of Gaelan.
Keeping his cool he spoke.
"My name is Akasha, and you are?" His tone of voice sounded bland and almost bored.
*GULP* *GULP* *GULP*
"HAHAHA, I LIKE YOUR ARROGANCE KID. YOU CAN CALL ME GAELAN, THE COMBAT INSTRUCTER." Gaelan said after taking another chug.
"Tsk, why the hell are you so damn loud?!" Akasha said as he was this close to losing his cool.
*ahem*
"Ha-ha, my bad, you see I am new this kind of thing." Gaelan said kind of awkwardly scratching the back of his head.
"Anyways kid, how did you complete the steps so fast?"
"Hmm? I just walked...." Akasha said as he was slightly confused by the sudden question.
'Was I not supposed to finish so quickly? I mean I expected there to be some sort of hidden bullshit going on, but the steps seemed pretty normal to me' he thought this while putting his attention on a person who was climbing the steps.
It was a young lady, she had fire red hair, standing at about 5 feet 8 inches. Her eyes were pitch black like a starless night sky.
'Hmm?' he finally found someone interesting. While looking at the young lady he used his ability.

Meanwhile Gaelan was still trying to comprehend what he just heard.
'Y-you just, walked? What kind of nonsense is that. I know I might not be the smartest but even I know that's just bullshit!'
"Haha yea whatever keep your little secrets then kid." He said as he wasn't believing that bullshit he just heard.
'Everyone knows 'The Steps to Heaven' is a test of will. Every 4th of the way the pressure almost doubles!'
Ignoring Gaelan foolishness, Akasha, he was having a conversation with Luna.
'Luna what is this ruination stuff? It seems to be something more unique than what I've seen so far.'
[Eh?] Hearing the words of Akasha, Luna woke up from her fantasy land mildly surprised.
[Actually, I'm surprised that something like that is here in a High-level world like this one. This is something that's normally not attainable by mortals. Just to be brief Ruination is like the father of all thing's death and destruction.]
'Hmm, well that sounds cool. At what level does one normally come into contact with this?'
[Well, at the least a universal level. The power of ruination is so broken that it could literally destroy entire star systems. Although that little dragon has the innate power of ruination, it is heavily restricted due to her power. At her level now she won't even be able to use a fraction of its power. Though, she can still do some interesting things if mastered properly.]
Hearing this Akasha wasn't as surprised as one might think. Since coming to this new world, he always knew there was a much vaster world outside of it. He was literally born in the cosmos for fucks sake.
'That's indeed interesting' he said with a smirk. Then he turned his attention towards Gaelan.

'WHAT THE HELL?! LUNA, I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WERE TITANS IN THIS WORLD!' He exclaimed internally as he was genuinely surprised.
Over the course of his training him and Luna talked about many things. And the major races of this world were one of the many topics. Although Luna never left his side, for her, getting information was a simple task.
According to Luna this world had many races but Akasha mostly focused on the main Races.
The Celestials
The Dragons
The Humans
The Vampires
The Demons
The Dwarves
The Elves
and there were many other races that were lower in power but also notable like The Foxes or Werewolves.
Akasha was pretty well informed of the races here, but never once did she mention anything about Titans. Though the world of Kalpa had many races he always felt as if something were missing.
Like if there were Dragons then why weren't there any Phoenix?
Hearing Akasha's question Luna responded while chuckling.
[~Fufufu~ It's always good to see you getting surprised dear~]
[But, to answer your question, Titans were once a race in this world. Currently there are no pureblooded Titans though. I won't tell you anymore because that would make your adventure a bit pointless. So, figure out the rest of the puzzle dear~]
"Well, that's interesting indeed." He muttered under his breath as he continued to watch the other geniuses.
