It was even rare for a human to enter a trance state, but in front of her was a beast that could enter a trance state; this was against logic and beyond her knowledge. She had a question in her mind: Why could this beast do it? Why is it trying so hard to fight its fate? Was it because he wanted to become stronger, or was there another reason behind it?
Rishi was able to connect to his contract beast and sense and understand why it was trying so hard. His eyes welled up; he tried to control himself but was unable to. This idiot was trying so hard to always remain with Rishi; he feared that Rishi would cast him away like other Beast Tamers if he didn't prove himself useful to him. When given the choice of dying or being left alone, he chose death as a better option, as other than Rishi, he didn't have anyone in this world. He would break apart the moment Rishi again left him; the memories of how he survived being alone in the forest were still fresh in his mind.
