Kael could already guess that the reason Callisto was interested in them was likely tied to the Authority of Death.
As the Tribal Chief of the Ashfall Ogre Tribe, Callisto had surely been exposed to all kinds of arcane rituals and forgotten lore. It was almost certain that he was aware of the infamous Dance of the Dead—something that wasn't just a tribal ritual but a symbolic representation deeply tied to the essence of death itself.
If that was true, then it wasn't a stretch to assume that he was also familiar with the aura of death.
He must have sensed something similar radiating from Kael—something that resonated with that very authority. Kael himself didn't fully understand it, but after everything he had seen in Rias's soul, it wouldn't surprise him if something had leaked into his own being. That cold, heavy pressure… that whisper of oblivion. It wasn't normal.
And Callisto? His curiosity couldn't have been born out of nowhere.
