"It cannot be cured."

Cale felt like he was slapped straight to the face with a paper written incurable in bold font.

"Even with the help of Saint Jack or Pendrick?"

The God of Death only looked at him solemnly and shook his head.

"It was a side effect from stabbing yourself with the World Tree's branch."

The redhead voiced an empty laugh.

Cale never wanted to live long, yet he never wanted to die early too. He still wanted to slack off with his family.

He still wanted to see Raon, On and Hong's growth.

"How many days?"

Death raised his three fingers.

"Weeks."

"Should we go travel?" Cale asked as the children whipped their heads and stared in excitement.

"Where? Where? Human where?"

"Isn't that was why I was asking you three? Is there any particular place you want to go in mind?"

The three children pondered for a while, sometimes sharing a look then shaking their head later on.

"We've already saw all the places back in war right nya?" Hong asked his sister, who only shrugged in return.

"I meant as a vacation for three days."

"How about you choose Cale nya?"

The redhead had a stoic face, but his mind kept running and remembering every possible places to go. He wanted the children to have fun.

"Raon. Call the others first and ask them if they want to come. You three can choose whoever you want to bring."

"Even crazy Clopeh?"

Cale shivered before calming himself.

"If you want to then go."



"Young Master-nim. It is a pleasure to have you visit here." Amiru said before Cale nodded at her way.

"We can use the shorelines here right?" Amiru nodded, delighted.

"Of course."

"Thank you. I should go now, they must be waiting."

Amiru smiled at the retreating figure if the redhead, "Have fun Young Master-nim."

Cale sat beside Alberu and Choi Han as he drank the iced tea in his hands. He could hear the giggles of all the children he took in as they played in the beach water.

All the adults who came with the mini vacation in the Ubarr territory are either getting their skin tanned under half the shade of the umbrella or playing with the children in the water. Heck, even Clopeh was here bathing in the scorching sun.

"Rosalyn-nim. Did you manage to create it?" The redhead asked who was at the other side of Choi Han.

"Yes. It was easy enough since you gave me the instructions." The female redhead said as she gave Cale a large net, two iron poles and a ball.

"Cale-nimㅡ!" He only smirked.

Cale walked towards the space between where the umbrellas are and the water.
