"Hmph!"
Muria felt a warm liquid flowing from his nostrils. He reached up to lightly wipe it away, then looked at his hand, where the thick, dark red blood presented itself before his eyes.
"How miserable!" It wasn't just his nose, Muria felt the warm liquid seeping from the corners of his eyes and his ears as well. This was the price he paid for communicating with the World Will.
"But it's worth it!" Although feeling that his body was nearing collapse, Muria's lips still uncontrollably curled into a smile.
"Hahahaha!" Finally, Muria could no longer suppress his elated feelings and threw back his head in a hearty laugh. As he laughed, his true self, curled up and with eyes closed within his heart, slowly opened its eyes, its lips also curving slightly upwards.
