Chapter 235: Armament Trials

Watching Ryu's gentle caress of the Bloodied Steed, Tae felt frozen in place. She found it too difficult to resolve the Ryu who was a breath away from striking her down for a mere grumbling stomach with the Ryu who was delicate and caring.

Ryu would never describe himself as a caring person, nor did he have some innate sense of justice. If he did, he probably wouldn't have let Amarice's ex-lover die. After all, he was an innocent man seeking revenge for a past betrayal, yet Ryu felt nothing watching him be backstabbed by the Ruin Master.

However, when it came to those he had a relationship with, any slight against them was a slight against himself. He had already bound the Bloodied Steed as his second beast partner. Though their bond had yet to deepen, Ryu's heart trembled when he realized the crimson horse held on so long in respect of their relationship. Ryu saw this valiant horse as one of his own. Seeing it in this state made his eyes flicker with rage.
