บท 269: Resonance

Aldrich gazed at the young boy, who was even doubting if he was alive or dead.

He could feel the abnormal emotions in Meuric's heart. Emotions that were questioning his existence and the red world around him. Aldrich knew these emotions were temporary and they would soon run away the moment the pain would kick in Meuric's senses.

All shocks were instantaneous, and by nature, temporary.

Aldrich wasn't some saint, nor he was a messiah. There were only two things for him, either let Meuric die, or let him survive. There was no profit for him in both these options. Meuric's death won't lead him to some striking wealth of information, and him being alive won't result in startling discoveries.

The reason for saving this 15-year-old boy was so simple that those who didn't know Aldrich would never have believed him if told.

Aldrich saved Meuric because he saw in him an interesting patient.

That was all.
