Real Culprit

Khrom trembled when he heard Gul Palius' words. Wrath appeared inside his eyes, rage engulfed his face, as he stared at the man on the ground. Gul Palius didn't seem to notice his expression and continued sarcastically. "That woman thought she could save you by acting like a whore, but who could have thought that you would kill her instead?" Mayor looked at Khrom and revealed his bloody teeth, grinning. "She tried to save you by acting like an unfaithful wife but you? You killed her. I don't think you are any better than me."

Khrom turned pale as he heard Gul Palius. He knew that everything he said was true. His wife did everything to save him, she didn't even shirk from enduring those awful things. However, instead of bearing the burden and hardship together with her, he killed her. He still vividly remembered her expression when the last time she breathed.
