Please don't hurt me.

I've suffered enough already. My body's so tattered to the point my wounds aren't even beginning to heal.

I yearned for a love and warmth that did not exist in this world, yet I keep searching... to no avail. I fall into the same trap again and again, although I expected the inevitable outcome.

Should I just stop? Give up and die alone?

I fumbled with the soul embers in my trembling fingers, gazing at them with uncertainty. Would this be the turning point in my life? Will I... finally experience the tranquility and peace I've searched for so many years?

The love and warmth that I've been dying to experience?

Try. Even if there's no more hope in the world, just try. Even that simple gesture is enough to generate even a small sliver of hope.

Closing my eyes, I tossed the soul embers into the abyss.

"Are you my Master Attendant? From now on, I will protect you!"

Huh...?

"So that I have no regrets, I will be sure to accomplish all of my goals at all costs."

This was something unlike anything I've ever felt before.
