Happy New Year's! Maybe this chapter might determine this book's status in Early 2020.
"Do you know what happened to him?" "Unfortunately no. I was busy chasing some criminals trying to rescue IF. When the men on my side all shockingly took their own lifes, I went to look for Alex, only to see him bloody and walking on his own."
Currently, Vert was on the phone with Noire, who had called as she was concerned about Alex when she heard an incident had appeared at Leanbox involving the kidnapping of IF.
Vert explained the process of what happened on her side but left it at that as Alex never opened up about what happened to him.
With a sigh Noire thanked Vert for answering and told her to take care of Alex with Vert reassuring her he'd be alright.
As Vert hanged up, she turned to the direction of Alex's room.
'Just what is wrong with him?'
As she thought that, Alex laid down on his bed.
The room was dark and he stayed quiet, reflecting on what had just happened.
The battle against Greed just took a sudden turn for the boy.
Sure he wanted to defeat him, but he never intended to kill the guy.
Alex just assumed his emotions got the best of him.
Either way, he had killed Greed.
And for Greed's last words and death, it set Alex's mind spiraling.
Alex raised and looked at his left hand.
The hand he had used to kill Greed.
He clenched it into a fist as words rang in his head.
'Why? Why's Greed entrusting me to stop the Homunculi? What makes me so damn special? I'm not special.'
Alex lowered his hand as his arm covered his eyes as he spoke quietly.
"I'm just a murder." He said, as he slept for the night.
