Kapitel 131: Chapter 131: The Calamity

"She's a victim… My victim. I've already scarred her enough, please stop hurting her."

There was absolutely no hint of mockery or derision in Sylas's tone; the sincerity in his eyes, completely obvious for everyone to see. Rhys, however, did not care. Even if he has truly changed, the person being reflected in Rhys's eyes will always be the person who killed his mother.

Even if he becomes a saint, even if he saves a billion people — he will always be the person who humiliated his mother; torturing her and killing her in the most brutal way possible — there was no going back from that, never.

Even if the last and only person he ends up killing is his mother, it doesn't matter.

Even if he had truly become a good person, it doesn't matter… because Rhys wasn't.
