"Victory" and its Rewards

-(Present || Nathan is with Administrator to take his reward; Location: ???)-

After my evolution, my mind cleared up. I was able to recall the words Eth spoke while I was half-conscious.

His words were strangely melancholic, as if it was the last time we would talk.

'No, he wouldn't do something stupid.'

I reassured myself repeatedly.

'He has his family, his goals, and his ambitions in this world. He wouldn't give up on them.'

Why was feeling this sadness then?

Of course, Eth would return after the Resonance ends, just like how he returned last time.

But why wasn't the Resonance ending?

And why did he say 'Take Care' at the end?

"Are you sure about these rewards?"

Administrator words shook me out of my thoughts. After saying that the other half of [Miracle] to save Leon was me, she had refused to elaborate further and proceeded to talk about my reward.
