🪶80 - Flustered (2)

Start from the beginning
                                    

Once she rubbed her eyes, she could see a new sight.

"Cale-nim."

Choi Han could see the gentle wind create a path through the water vapor. At the end of that path was a silver light.

Choi Han knew what that light was.

They could see a glimpse of Section 1 through the path created by this wind. It was black. They could also see evidence of things having been burnt by fire.

They could see someone standing there on top of these burnt ruins.

It was a man with hair as red as the fire they could no longer see.

A large silver shield and wings were covering the man. Litana did not even notice that Ten had stopped, as she was mesmerized by the sight.

Paaaat.

The silver wings opened up before disappearing with the shield. Once it disappeared, the only thing left standing there was that man, Cale. Cale then started to stagger.

LItana's eyes turned wide and the Black Panther, Ten, started to move. Choi Han and Rosalyn also crossed the boundary to approach Cale. Cale had put a hand on his head and was frowning.

His head was full of Raon's voice.

- I was enjoying the water and forgot the shield! That was why it was a bit late! I'm sorry, human!

Cale couldn't say anything. He had been busy admiring the wave that he created that he had also forgotten about the Indestructible Shield.

- Ah right, shield!

He only came back to his senses after hearing Raon shout that, and so he had activated his shield as well. That was why he was holding his head that was temporarily smashed by that water bomb.

[FF/A :- Like father like son both admired the same thing both forgot the same (most important) thing.

If Choi Han knew he'd faint out of concern and frustration. ಠ⁠ω⁠ಠ]

'I used too much of it for no reason.'

He was drenched and cold for no reason.

- I'm really sorry! I, I was not great!

The 4-year old's frustrated voice filled Cale's dizzy head as he quietly whispered.

"I still managed to live thanks to you."

- You, you weak human! I am an idiot!

Cale wanted to stop Raon from blaming himself, but he could not do so. It was because Choi Han, Rosalyn, as well as Litana and Ten, were approaching him. Choi Han quickly started to support Cale.

"Are you okay, Cale-nim?"

"Are you okay?"

Rosalyn quickly used temperature management magic on the drenched Cale.

"Miss Rosalyn, you know that I won't get hurt."

Choi Han and Rosalyn looked at each other after hearing Cale's casual voice. Raon was with Cale, while Cale also had the Indestructible Shield. It was only now that the two of them remembered this. An embarrassed voice continued to speak.

"Why did you keep shouting my name so loudly like that. I had to come out quickly because of that."

Cale started to grumble while fixing up his wet hair and clothes. He looked very calm. However, he was standing on top of a land that had been completely burnt to a crisp.

'Do I not have much affinity with water?'

Cale recalled what had happened when he met Witira last time. He didn't enjoy getting drenched every time he was around water. It was because he found wet clothes to be annoying.
