In the Divine like Palace of the masked guy that Cairo had met before, the owner can be seen sitting on his throne with eyes completely shut
The masked guy was tempering his mind that was already being eroded by the countless amount of time that lived
The Reviving King successfully left a small crack in his confidence and if he let it stay, it would be detrimental to his state
Once a crack was formed, it would be easier to leave even more cracks on it. Thus, he needs to use the time before the final battle in his life arrives
If he broke down even before the battle started, his loss would almost be guaranteed. While Cairo is young and still filled with vast and unyielding confidence, he is already an old man that was sadly being eroded with time
Time is such a cruel thing. Even the hardest stone will turn soft in time. Despite being the strongest being alive, the masked guy was still affected by time
