章節 44: Acceptance

Aren narrowed his eyes, feeling the knots in his mind tighten rather than unravel. "What do you mean?"

The Dark Entity let out a mocking laugh. "I am the true face you've started to ignore, Aren. Your inner darkness, your power—everything that makes you who you are. You've pushed it all aside, hiding behind those fake emotions, and forgotten your true self."

Aren shook his head in confusion. "No, I don't remember any of that. I'm the same as I always was."

The Dark Entity's eyes blazed with anger, and its voice grew sharp. "The same as you always were? Are you kidding? Do you think we're fools, Aren? The moment you started feeling emotions, you began pushing us aside. Day by day, you ignored your power, pretending more and more to be human."

Aren fell silent, the Entity's words echoing in his mind.
