Chapter 309: The Demon Physician (2)
"But at the end of it all... something entirely different awaited."
The Demon Physician, his eyes glimmering with clear brilliance, looked up at the sky. Then, he slowly opened his mouth.
"It pained me to witness it as I ascended each step. Most of the news was about how you interfered with the plans of the Demonic Cult and myself… but your actions—I held them in high regard. People naturally admire those who walk paths they themselves could not tread."
That was why he had sighed.
Though precarious, he had always chosen the right path. But in the end, he had crossed the line.
He had gone far beyond the boundary between good and evil and walked the path of the demonic alongside him. That was why he had hastened his steps with both relief and regret.
"The higher you climbed, the more ghastly the scenes became. You raged for the sake of rage, harbored killing intent just to release it—each trace of you pushing yourself to the brink grew increasingly blatant."
It was true.
At the time, he had deliberately tried to fall into deviation from the heart. Already half-mad, he had struggled to completely lose himself—how horrific it must have looked.
