"Ah there he is." Tae Joon said as he looked around looking for their father, Lee Dae Seong, while seated in front with Tae Min. As Dae Seong get nearer, Tae Joon noticed his father's worried face. Both men stood up to greet their father.

"Dad, wha--" Tae Min said but was cut off hy his father.

"-- he is here." Dae Seong said.

"Let's all have a seat." He added. Now both men sat altogether in front.

There is a reincarnate of Prince Jun Seong. Dae Seong said telepathically through Tae Joon and Tae Min. Both men could not keep their surprised expression.

Something's off... Of all the years, why now? Tae Joon asked

The man's name is Park Jae Sung. He is a young graduate... But he looks exactly like Jun Seong during our young days... And he called me Hwan Jeong. Dae Seong said. Tae Min's eyes widened as he heard the name.

Park... Jae Sung... he's that guy who called me Tae Guk... And he was with Yoon Ji. He was her classmate in one of her minor subjects. Tae Min said.

Looks like... Something is bound to happen in this era. Dae Seong said while the Lee brothers nodded.

As the commencement exercises started, Lee Dae Seong went up on stage to deliver his congratulatory speech. His eyes roamed around, and with the help of his vampire eyes, he spotted immediately Park Jae Sung amongst the thousands of students who now also looks at him with a smirk on his face. Dae Seong cleared his throat and smiled.

"Before anything else, I would like to congratulate this batch of graduates. I have been a major contributor of this school since... God knows when, and by far, students have all been successful in their chosen paths. Never ever stray from your goals. Always keep your eyes on what you want to achieve, and continue to believe in yourselves. Success starts within you. And do not be afraid of failures, we all undergo a lot of failures, I am an example of that. I have been through a lot of failures. But... Learn from every failures and always think positive."

The students clapped their hands as Lee Dae Seong finished his speech. He bowed and went back to his seat after receiving the certificate of appreciation. The host, then, called on the Summa Cum Laude of the Chemical Engineering department.

"May we now call on Park Jae Sung, Summa Cum Laude of the Chemical Engineering department to give an inspiring message to all graduates." The graduates clapped their hands as Park Jae Sung stood and walked towards the stage. He walked past Lee Dae Seong. Jae Sung looked and smiled at Dae Seong and went up on stage.

"Before anything else... do all of you believe in the impossible?"

His question stirred some reaction to the audience, while the Lee family just looked at him.

"For me, I did." Jae Sung said. He glanced at Lee Dae Seong and went ahead with his speech.

"You see... the impossible is hard to believe. But once you work hard for it, the impossible will be possible. And you know... I also believe in the existence of beings that some never believed have existed. Why? Because of that belief that nothing is impossible. Some things are really unexplainable..." Jae Sung smiled and spoke again.

"But that is why I worked hard. To have an explanation to unexplainable things. And to rid of what I think is a pandemic to this world." He glanced at Dae Seong and smiled.

"We all have our goals. That is my goal. So do not be afraid. Work hard for the things you want to aim and to do what you think is the right thing to do." Jae Sung bowed and students clapped their hands.
