However, Cale’s smile did not seem fitting for the current situation.

Bang! Bang, bang!

The White Star’s fire sword was gathering on the White Star’s hand as hundreds of red rocks gathered around him. Wind was mixed into this fire that contained the power of a natural disaster and became as sturdy as his wind wall.

His water wall also gathered around the fire and wind to block anything that came closer.

Cale quickly moved toward the water wall.

His gaze was focused on the White Star.

‘Rok Soo. You have to remember three things when trying to use Embrace on a person. There are other things to take into consideration as well, but these three things are the priority before the others.’

‘I am okay not hearing about it.’

‘You were the one who brought it up first, Rok Soo.’

Bang, bang!

All they could hear was the endless explosions of the water and rocks slamming against each other.

Crack. The crumbling rocks mixed with the drops of water blasting out of the water wall and the combination looked like thick red blood.

The rocks did not get in Cale’s way. However, the crumbled pieces of the rocks and the water wet Cale’s face and body.

His body was getting redder and redder, despite not even using his ‘Instant’ ability.

“Cale Henituse-!”

The White Star could feel Cale Henituse getting closer even while the red rocks covered his view.

He could feel that aura that was full of that terrible fear even though Cale was not visible.

A giant presence was moving toward him.

Crunch!

The White Star was angry at this fact.

He heard Cale’s voice at that moment.

“I’m sure you are not afraid of death. Well, even if you are, you could probably overcome it.”

Would there be anybody else who remembers death as much as the White Star?

Watching other people die, sure, but remembering their own death?

There was probably nobody.

The White Star would have used his madness, patience, or whatever it took to survive.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be here in front of Cale right now.

“But you’re scared of something else right now.”

Cale could clearly see the White Star’s face in between the red rocks.

There were still beads of sweat on his face.

“It’s hard, isn’t it?”

Cale slowed down. He started moving in a different direction.

The red rocks created a path following his movement.

Bang, bang-!

The White Star was still using his wall to destroy the rocks and continuously gathering his power in his sword.

He seemed to be trying to gather as much power as possible to destroy this area, rather than to randomly launch attacks. That was how much of a burden this area was to him right now.

The White Star could hear Cale’s voice. Although Cale was walking slowly and his voice was calm… This damn bastard’s presence was so big that he could feel everything Cale Henituse was doing, despite being unable to see him.

“You are tired. It’s hard to keep reincarnating. Isn’t that why you were trying to finish everything in this lifetime?”

The White Star’s eyes and face always looked fatigued.

Would someone who truly overcame the fear of death have such an expression?

The White Star just persisted.

His life repeats endlessly with him carrying his memories. It truly was a curse. It was a terrible curse that Cale would never ever want to experience.

“You’re scared that you will have to live another life, aren’t you?”

“Nonsense.”

The White Star calmly shook his head at Cale Henituse’s comments.

“Really? In that case…”

However, Cale had seen it.

He saw the way the White Star’s pupils shook when he used this power. He saw how the White Star had taken steps back.

The White Star was afraid.

“Me.”

Cale was walking in a circle as he approached the White Star.

“The guy who is always one step ahead of you, no matter what you do.”

Cale had always been one step ahead and ruined all of the White Star’s plans.

Wouldn’t the White Star have had the following thoughts after having so many run-ins with Cale until now?

“You hate me, you want to kill me, and you want to take everything away from me.”

In addition…

“You are slowly getting scared of me.”
