– Cale.

Smirk.

Cale smiled after hearing the cheapskate calling him.

Sssss.

Vines were slowly approaching from behind him.

Cale lifted his foot and stepped on a vine.

“You seem to have a hidden cunning side?”

Cale sounded as if he was talking to the black tree.

“You also seem to not be scared anymore.”

Sssssssss— sss—!

The vine did not retreat.

The vine pointed its tip at Cale as if it would do anything to grab Cale’s body even as it burned.

The corners of Cale’s lips curled up.

He then looked forward.

“Wow.”

Dozens of tree roots were pointing their heads above the surface of the water.

And the vines of the tree that were as large as the Lord’s Castle… Dozens of small and large vines were pointed toward Cale as well.

“How entertaining.”

Rose gold aura started to shoot up from under his foot at that moment.

Crackle–

The vine instantly started to burn.

The vine’s sharp thorns with the sticky liquid were instantly swallowed by the rose gold aura.

Tatap!

Cale moved the foot that was stepping on the vine that was quickly turning into ah.

Wind wrapped around his ankle.

The Sound of the Wind gathered by his ankle and created a small whirlwind.

Splash-

Cale moved over the lake as he pushed forward.

Boom—!

The ground started to shake.

It felt as if the entire black sand desert was moving.

– Kahahaha! Cale! Let’s burn it up!

The moment he heard the cheapskate’s crazed shout…

The black tree started to attack Cale.

Splash— splash—

The surface of the lake roared and split while making a different noise from before.

Then dozens of tree roots all shot up at the same time.

They were all aiming for one thing.

It was Cale.

“Hmm.”

It looked as if large spears were flying toward him.

A tree root that was as wide as Cale’s body shot forward as if to pierce through him.

Numerous roots behind that root were aiming at him from all directions.

The people watching this could only imagine what would happen next.

“He must be crazy. What is that person doing alo-!”

Fourth Imperial Prince Noi subconsciously started to speak from inside the gold shield.

“Is he trying to die-”

The tree roots would pierce through that man’s body.

He would be ripped to shreds to the point that they would not be able to see any resemblance to him in what was left behind.
