Chapitre 179: Thank You For Reminding Me

Talon's breathing became unsteady.

"Thank you, sister..."

He brought his hand closer to his face.

"...for reminding me..."

Talon pressed his fingers against the edges of his eyelid, blocking the yellow glow.

"...of how far I've come."

Oddryl's voice resounded throughout the hallway.

"What are you doing? You can't possibly be-"

Suddenly, Talon shoved his fingers into his eye socket.

"AHHHHHHHH"

Although he had experienced many levels of pain before, in terms of intensity, this was the worst. That's not to say what Talon experienced before was that much better. Constantly living under pain for many years would cause nearly everyone to break down.

But Talon pushed through it, and that was what he planned to do now as well.

His fingers dug deep, squeezing his eye to make room to go further. It was already horribly painful to just touch the eye, so going farther than that...

Oddryl fell silent for a moment.
