Oscar's lips trembled.

He didn't want to say this.

Suddenly like this...

He didn't want them to know.

No, he didn't want to reveal it, it was supposed to be a secret that would remain buried forever.

He'll be abandoned.

He'll be thrown away.

Definitely...

"Oscar, say it. I don't care what you've done."

"I..."

Lelia looked at Oscar with a sad look.

Whatever he did, whatever happened, she was confident that she would forgive Oscar.

She didn't want him to bear the guilt alone and suffer.

Of course, she didn't want to force him to say it like this. If it wasn't this way, Oscar would shut up forever.

As Griffith said, Oscar may not overcome the guilt and run away from her someday.

Oscar managed to shut up.

The tightly closed jaw trembled and his eyes shook.

The past was drawn in front of him.

It was as clear as yesterday's memory.

From a very long time ago, he lived only drawing the face that saved him.

'If we meet again, then I will have to protect him.'

'Instead of looking like a small, shabby crybaby, you should show a strong and reliable figure.'

Since a long time ago, he has lived by painting only the face that saved him.

'I should've told you that I missed you all your life.'

'I should've told you that I want to be by your side from now on and to be friends with you again.'

Until he was told that he had died, he was soaked in dreamlike hope.

'Will I die, too?'

After hearing the news, he started getting such thoughts.

But he wanted to see him again.

'Not compassion or sympathy, but warm eyes that I had never seen before.'

'I wanted to hold his warm hands again.'

So he began to look for stories about Leo, who died just like that.

Then he found out.

The real identity of that kid.

Around that time, a very good idea came to mind.

'The Neutral Zone.'

'Yes, if I find the holy relic, it can make my wish come true...'

He used his power to find the whereabouts of the holy object.

It was once a feared black force, but now it was only a convenient tool.

He was able to control it perfectly.

He tried to take advantage of other people he had known since his stay at the temple.

It was easy to take away the sacred objects kept by a man named Ruth.

He thought about killing him because he couldn't talk with him, but he just ran away from him after stealing his holy relic.
