Choi Han looked refreshed after saying everything he needed to say. Strong passion could be felt coming from him.

He then waited for Cale’s response.

Cale opened his mouth to respond.

However, someone started to speak first.

“There is no way the smart Choi Han would say something like that!”

Choi Han and Cale both looked toward Raon after hearing the sudden shout.

Raon shook his head side to side before looking toward Choi Han the same way that he looks at Mercenary King Bud and continued to speak.

“We have all been fighting together since the beginning! Why do we need to combine our powers again when we have already been doing that?! Choi Han! You cannot become like the Mercenary King!”

Cale started to chuckle. He then responded in a serious tone.

“Choi Han is definitely smarter than Bud.”

“That is true! Human, you really are smart! You are sliiiiiiiiighty! Just slightly less smart than I am!”

“Yes, yes.”

Cale patted Raon's soft back.

He then realized something.

‘…Did he lose some weight?’

Raon's cheeks that had been chubby until they got to the Castle of Light were slightly less chubby. Cale started to frown.

He recalled Hong’s haggard face that had been shaking. He also thought about how On did not gain weight, unlike Hong and Raon.

Then those trashy bastards from the Cat tribe and the White Star popped up in his mind.

“…These damn bastards that need to be beaten to death.”

Choi Han and Raon flinched.

“Raon.”

“What is it, human?”

“Take out an apple pie.”

“Oh! Alright!”

Raon quickly took out an apple pie and pushed it toward Cale with sparkling eyes. Cale picked it up.

He then started to speak.

“Ah.”

“Ah?”

Raon, who repeated after Cale, felt a slice of an apple pie being pushed into his mouth. Raon closed his mouth with a part of the apple pie dangling outside.

“Eat up.”

Raon grabbed the slice of apple pie with both paws and started to eat even though he didn’t know what was going on. Cale mumbled to himself as he watched.

“…Can’t believe he lost some weight.”

Choi Han, who was watching this from the side, started to think.

‘Who?

Who lost weight?’

Choi Han blankly watched Raon’s chubby cheeks becoming extremely full because of the apple pie in his mouth.

He then started to laugh.

“Haha-”

It felt as if his heart was being tickled.

He really did choose the right path.

Everything was the same as usual and there was no despair, loneliness, or pain even though he said that they needed to all fight together against the White Star.

“Human, do you know why Choi Han is laughing by himself like that?”

“I don't know. How would I know? Well, I guess it is good to laugh.”

“Mm, that is true! It is good to laugh! Choi Han, laugh a lot! I will cancel the comment about you being similar to the Mercenary King!”

Choi Han started to laugh even louder.

Raon continued to nibble on the apple pie with wide eyes as he had never seen Choi Han laugh this loudly before.

However, Raon soon stopped eating and blankly stared at Choi Han.

Choi Han had started to speak after laughing for a while.

“To be honest with you, Cale-nim, I have been alive for a very long time.”

Plop.

The apple pie in Raon's two paws fell to the ground. Choi Han didn’t care as he continued to speak.

“That is why I am actually older than you, Cale-nim. I am older than Mr. Ron as well.”

Raon's eyes blinked a few times as he looked toward Choi Han.

Choi Han was still smiling as he continued to speak.

“I age very slowly. I think I will live for a very, very long time.”
