"I can't lose that person either. You know."

The prince's face contorted painfully.

"Ed doesn't hurt me. I will definitely save that person. I can save you."

His last words were like a promise to himself.

"Please. ... ... Ah... ... Budge."

The Archduke's eyes widened at the word "father".

A complicated heart was revealed on the hardened face.

"... ... please... ... You must come back."

The words of permission that finally flowed out were deeply submerged.

"... ... Yes."

The Archduke lowered me as close to Edwin as possible for me, who was still trembling in the aftermath of a headache.

"Aww!"

Edwin, turned into a monster, looked at us and revealed it.

The clothes he was wearing were torn here and there because of his already swollen body, and black veins were protruding from the skin exposed between them.

Most of the bright blue eyes were dyed black, and black bloody hair stood out like a spider's web around them.

Even so, he did not rush to us, whether he was holding on with his tremendous mental strength.

But sooner or later, even the rest of his mind will be consumed by madness.

As if to signal that Edwin's death was imminent, the pain in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

"I'm sorry, sir, but can you give me all the jewels you have?"

The Archduke, who had a puzzled expression for a moment, quickly took out his belongings.

He handed me a pocket watch adorned with aquamarine cuffs and a few jewels.

And after staring at the ring of the covenant that I shared with Isabelle for a long time, he pulled out the ring and held it in my hand.

"This... ... ."

"It's to save you, so your mother won't be sad either."

"... ... I'm sorry."

"Come back. That's it."

There was a tremor in the hand holding me tightly.

As I struggled to raise the corners of my mouth to create a smile that resembled a smile, the Prince's face sank deeply.

I turned around and walked over to Edwin.

I wanted to run quickly, but my legs, which had already been loosened, continued to stumble.

Edwin, who revealed this when he saw me, shook his head as if trying to come to his senses.

"... ... Five... ... Ji... ... mind."

Edwin barely spoke, and took a step back.

Even that was the biggest step.

Perhaps it was difficult just to hold onto the body that was about to run towards me.

Don't come near me, run away. Eyes that have lost their light have spoken to me.

More desperately and desperately than ever.

Over those eyes, on the night when the tower ran wild, the eyes that were desperately sending towards me, telling me not to approach me, overlapped.

Looking back now, even though I hadn't awakened to jewelery at that time, Edwin wanted to protect me.
