I watched everyone somberly walk into the waiting room, at least most of them walked. Rachel sat on her chair as she covered her shameful face with a coat. I glared at her while trying my best not to show anything as an attempt to not give anything away. As of now, we were all waiting for Lero Ro to announce the status of Baam. I admittedly did not check Baam's current status as I was afraid that everything was going to be meaningless. Soon after, Lero Ro enters the room with an expressionless face.

     "Everyone, thank you for waiting," He says. "Before I say anything,I am glad to announce that you have all passed the test."

Roars of cheers passed and everyone felt relief in their hearts. Everyone but me. This test did not concern me in any way, my only concern was my brother. I look over at Lero Ro as we make eye contact, waiting for him to spill the beans.

     This couldn't possibly mean..? But it's not possible.. Even if he is a regular, I know he's not that weak!

     "Does that mean..?" I turn my head to see Khun shaking.

I look back at Lero Ro, waiting for an answer.

     "Yes. Unfortunately, Baam has passed away."

I could feel everything moving, nothing was right. Nothing felt okay, my head was spinning like crazy. I placed one of my hand against the wall and the other on my head. I tune out everything that's happening and look up with all my strength, staring directly at Rachel. Watching Rachel pretend to be shocked and seeing everyone go to her aid, just makes me more infuriating as each second passes..

     I muster out with all my strength, "... You're a monster..."
