Vol 2. Chapter 60
Abraham quickly caught me as I staggered.
“Rosie?”
“Ah... I’m sorry... Just... give me a moment...”
I couldn’t even begin to explain what was happening, so I just handed the letter to Ray.
As soon as he read it, Ray’s expression turned grim.
‘No, Zahid...’
I remembered the tapestry displayed in the Sinessé Marquessate—the one that depicted the awakening of the Divine Beast, where the master becomes one with the beast at the cost of their life.
I had wanted to tell him not to do it, that awakening the Divine Beast came at the price of death—but now he’d found the place and had already left?
I bit down on my lower lip, my thoughts racing.
“I want to stay by your side, but if it’s for your sake, I want to be the one to take on the most dangerous role.”
Even if Zahid knew it meant death, he wouldn’t hesitate. Now that everything had been exposed, he wouldn’t hold back.
Because it meant Aietar was coming to kill me.
