While Ael didn't understand at what point her childhood friend became so strange and wondered if there was something wrong with him...
Cale, seeing her gaze full of concern focused on him, couldn't help but feel a warm emotion in his chest.
"Ael... you're still as kind as ever, worrying about me even now."
Cale showed her his trademark smile that no girl could resist.
'I've never regretted loving you.'
Goosebumps ran down her skin as she pressed even closer to Rain.
And even despite this obviously treacherous act from his childhood friend, Cale was still calm.
'I forgive you, Ael.'
He could understand her.
In the end, she only saw him as a weak childhood friend she always had to protect, not a man worthy of her.
And even though that's all she saw in him…
She just didn't know he was the Monkey King! He had the fate of a King!
He could not only help her restore her Kingdom, but also conquer the entire world.
