His words felt like a sword piercing Adalen's chest. His handsome face turned pale, and his smile froze in place.
Before Adalen could respond, the Singularity of Chaos continued, "Do you think I don't know what your grandfather told you?"
A playful smile tugged at his lips as he rubbed his chin.
"Let me guess. Your grandfather warned you about me, didn't he? He told you not to make me your enemy. And one more thing—he said it with fear in his eyes, didn't he?"
Badump! Badump!
Adalen's heart pounded wildly. Cold sweat trickled down his back as he stared at the Singularity of Chaos, eyes wide with terror.
"How could... How could he know that!?" He muttered through clenched teeth, overcome with fear.
He had been so sure that the Singularity of Chaos would welcome his offer of friendship.
After all, he was the grandson of one of the most powerful figures in the world—the Singularity of Light.
