Ryu's words pierced into his heart. There was no doubt he was being looked down upon. Though Ryu didn't explicitly say it, the fact he was still middling around on this Pedestal Place spoke volumes.

He couldn't remember the last time that he had had such a volatile emotional reaction. Yet, this had all been caused by a boy who was nothing more than a child to him. How could he not feel infuriated?
