Hyun-woo PoV

So that was the power of The Bull Pillar. He was so smug, so arrogant. I hated him.
I clenched my fists, my white gloves squeaking. I wanted to fight him again, to show him what the Taeyang could do. Show him that he couldn't just do as he pleased in our world. But I also knew that Ailia was right. He was too strong. Even with my training, I couldn't beat him. Not yet.
I turned to her. "Why did you use the spear?"
She sighed, lying in a bed of flowers that were helping her recover. "I had to. They were in danger. You didn't even question it at the time."
I looked away and sighed. "You got me there. As soon as I felt the abyssal energy, I charged in. Perhaps we were both a bit hasty. We could've been killed."
She chuckled. "Maybe. But we saved them, didn't we?"
I shook my head. "No. We didn't. That man spared them. He wanted them alive for some reason."
