บท 96: Volume III - Chapter 17: Madness as Hope

I hated myself more and more, the feeling inside me was growing with each passing second. And then... the purple-eyed man suddenly stopped.

"Hey?"

He sounded shocked for the first time and I couldn't understand what had happened.

"You... why did your one eye turn purple?"

What?

"Very interesting... really strange... Wieras cannot be hybrids, a wiera is a wiera. But if you are a wiera, why are you in this academy?"

The man paused for a moment as if he realized something. One moment his eyes widened as if he finally understood something he hadn't been able to make sense of for a long time, and the next his face broke into a smile again.

"That thing found you, didn't it? I've been killing myself looking for where it is... You were unlucky enough to meet it, but lucky enough to be compatible. Still, it's... strange that you're a hybrid."

He continued to say something, to mutter to himself, but this time I didn't care. Just like him, I realized something, something very important.
