Chapter 316: Ch 316 : Tsukiyo
This world is cruel.
Everyone comes to understand this truth eventually—it’s just a matter of how long it takes.
As for me, I was already aware of it from the moment I could remember.
I don’t know who my biological parents are... but that doesn’t really matter.
To me, familial affection is an unnecessary emotion.
According to the people at the Magic Development Bureau, as the so-called "Child of the Demon," I have no need for such things.
All I need to do is keep growing, undergo their research, and contribute to their so-called "great cause."
That’s enough.
...No matter how many times I see the crazed expressions of those researchers, I can never get used to it.
But it doesn’t matter—I don’t care.
After all, it has nothing to do with me.
Even if I did care, it would be pointless, because my body is bound to a cross by special chains engraved with countless magical runes.
