Reborn
The betrayal came so swiftly that Cermin was not even allowed time to retaliate or take action. He did not try to fight back or say anything...
But it was Ronin's curse to hear his thoughts.
As they were locked in this tight embrace, replicating that night, the dead sun shining above them like a dimming street light…..
(All this time….. It was him. Yet he managed to hide it from me for so long. Did he really hate me that much for that night? Why….)
(It wasn't out of hatred that I did it. I never wanted him to die. So why….. Why would he hate me so much….)
Ronin felt a tinge of anger from him continuously asking himself why. It was because he had broken his promise, that's why.
It was so easy for him to take his life for the sake of his own.
He twisted the knife deeper, and used his skill Flame Regeneration to consume the Flame of others faster and turn it as his own.
"You are a parasite, Ah-Cheng. You have been a burden for me ever since I have met you."
