Cale questioned it, but had no choice other than to ask the conclusion he came to in his mind.
"...I pass because of my looks?"
– My goodness!
The voice that sounded like a person in their mid to late teens shouted as if she didn't know what to do.
– So cute! Look at how grumpy you look while asking if you pass because of your looks! You're such a little cutie!
"...My goodness."
Cale's 'my goodness' as he sighed was for a very different reason than the Drew Thames of her teens. He heard the voices of the Super Rock and the other ancient powers in his mind.
– ...Ho. I've never seen someone like this.
– She has a sharp eye.
– How amazing. She's amazing in many ways. The first thing she noticed while looking at Cale Henituse was his face? Hohoho.
This was the first time that Cale had ever been told he was cute, whether in this world or during his life as Kim Rok Soo. He had never been called cute in his thirty-plus, almost forty years.
"Ha, haha-"
Cale couldn't help but laugh in disbelief.
Someone came back to their senses after hearing him laugh.
Ron Molan. Ron had only been anxious about this sudden situation for a moment before walking over to Raon with a stiff expression on his face.
"Raon-nim."
"Hmm? Good to see you again Grandpa Ron!"
Ron couldn't put on his usual benign smile even at Raon's bright greeting.
"Raon-nim, how did a tree end up growing here?"
The grave of Cale Henituse's biological mother...
Ron had been thinking about a lot of things just from the fact that Cale came here. But a giant tree bursting through the grave and growing like this? The tree was beautiful, but Ron couldn't get rid of the stiff expression on his face.
"Ha, haha-"
It was because Cale Henituse, the child of the owner of this grave that was now gone because of the tree, was laughing so emptily while being surrounded by these beautiful red leaves.
The laugh seemed somewhat full of disbelief but also as if there was nothing behind it. Ron slowly looked around.
Raon, Lily, and Hong were just watching the tree and Cale as if they were amazed. But everybody On and older were only shocked for a moment before they all looked at Cale with complicated expressions on their faces.
"Hmm?"
Ron's gaze then landed on a punk.
"Mm, mmph! Mmph!"
This bastard's face had turned into a mess after being pummeled by the buzz-cut Dragon Rasheel. Lion King Dorph's eyes were wide open as he flailed while looking at the red tree. His face looked both astonished and shocked.
"Why is this son of a bitch whining like this without considering the situation?"
Rasheel raised his palm as if to say Dorph was being annoying.
Pow!
"Ugh!"
Rasheel smacked Dorph's back extremely hard and Dorph's head lowered while shaking intensely. Rasheel snorted before smirking.
