The Hexagram's light dissolved within Young Master Wayne's body, replaced by a blurry Crucifix Star.
God!
Life!
Void!
Self!
Each of the four great elements occupied a corner, corresponding in pairs, while the surrounding hexagonal border of the Hexagram restructured into a quadrilateral.
Wayne focused his gaze, and the most shining point of the Crucifix Star was 'Life', with 'God's' light closely following. 'Void' and 'Self', having been drained, emitted the dimmest, least noticeable light.
"Teacher, I've become..."
Wayne was overjoyed, turning his head to look at Hefei, but his words were cut off halfway.

"Wayne, you've succeeded!"
Hefei captured her student's head with one arm and gave it a vigorous rub, genuinely happy for him.
Wayne felt it was okay; presumably, she treated him like her son, but he had lived through two lifetimes, well into his thirties, and couldn't bear such heavy motherly love, struggling to break free.
