At this moment, it was like they had never been apart.

Gravis and Stella kissed for a long time.

However, when their lips parted, Stella still felt a bit uncertain about everything.

Yes, Gravis' words made logical sense, but feelings didn't always follow logic.

In a certain sense, Stella still felt useless to Gravis.

Gravis had known Stella for a long time, and he could take a good guess at what she was thinking right now.

"Stella," Gravis said quietly, looking into her eyes. "You're trying to take control over reality."

A skeptical look appeared on Stella's face.

"My power doesn't secure your survival," Gravis said. "Whenever you temper yourself, I have to go far away to make it impossible for me to interfere."

"Do you think I have any kind of control in that situation?"

Stella only looked into Gravis' eyes.

"I don't," Gravis continued as he embraced Stella. "Every time I see you fighting, I'm scared that this will be the last time I will ever see you. Every single time, I'm sickened with worry, and I want to do nothing more than to just help you."

"However, in a certain sense, this is a selfish feeling. I don't want to lose you, and that's why I'm feeling this way. If I followed this feeling, you wouldn't be able to grow. Additionally, I know that you would only be unhappy if you stopped cultivating."

"You're like me in that sense," Gravis said with a smile. "We both want happiness, but we also can't stop cultivating. It's simply who we are."

"Yet, to accomplish that, I have to give up any form of control I have over your life. I can give you a walking stick and some support, but you have to walk the path with your own two feet. I can't help you with that."

"I can only trust in you."

Stella looked into Gravis' eyes for a while and then looked away again.

'Is all of this only because I want to have control over Gravis' life?' Stella thought.

'That sounds bad, but is controlling someone necessarily bad? Not really. Dealing with something Gravis couldn't handle would be me taking control of the situation.'

Stella looked back at Gravis, and her heart warmed as she saw his eyes.

'Yet, even if I had the power to deal with his problems, it would only hurt him if I interfered.'

'Cultivation is a path that has to be walked alone.'

'I'm the only person that has control over my Cultivation, and Gravis is the only person that has control over his Cultivation.'
