Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 372 Should Not Let Go Of Oneself

For a woman as strong as Calista, she could handle even the greatest shocks.

"Why is it considered good?" Calista, unaware of the underlying reasons, furrowed his brows and said, "I feel they only bring me trouble."

Wilbur chuckled lightly. "Then, I must congratulate you. Having worries means you're getting closer to the common folk. I'm not saying there's something wrong with you. Rather, your previous feelings were quite unconventional. Besides, there's nothing wrong with being ordinary, right? I, for one, revel in being an average Joe."

Calista paused for a moment.

"So, are you saying my changes are because I'm returning to normal?" She pondered over her past self for a moment, then suddenly furrowed her brows. "I don't want to revert back to who I used to be."

Seeing her aversion to the past, Wilbur shook his head and reassured her, "Don't worry. You'll never revert back to the way you were before. You'll only become better than you are now." "Better than now?"

With a smile, Wilbur confidently stated, "Naturally, it'll be better. There's an old saying about rebirth from the ashes, but such rebirth is divided into two parts. The moment you undergo a profound change, you cast aside all the traits you no longer desired, marking your rebirth. However, only after experiencing the refining of time, adjusting your mindset, and reevaluating yourself, can you truly attain rebirth. On the clear stage of your mind, you should retrieve what shouldn't be abandoned, discard what truly needs to be discarded, and extract what's truly needed. Eliminate malice and return to nature; only then can you achieve true transcendence. So, at that time, you will be better than you are now."

Calista glanced at him.

"After being abandoned, there's naturally no need to reclaim it, right? Just like cowardice... What's its use?"

Wilbur reached out his hand, opened her palm, and placed a piece of candy in it.

"Cowards are usually gentle, not ones to hold grudges. Who's to say that's a bad thing? Every trait exists for a reason. How can we differentiate between what's useful and what's not?"

Calista pinched the piece of candy, her eyebrows furrowing slightly before he handed it back. "I don't really like sweets," she said.
