"You can trick others but not me," Kanha issued a chilling warning, "Stay out of my way, Roselda."
With a playful giggle, Roselda once again brushed off Kanha's words as harmless. She leaned in closer, wrapping her arm around Kanha's in a sweet gesture, swaying it gently like an affectionate puppy eager to share its joy.
"Come on! We both made it out okay, which shows we have something in common. So why not be friends?" Roselda remained firm in her conviction. Kanha released her hold on her arms, stepping back to survey her surroundings.
Kanha realized that those who materialized out of nowhere were the ones who had survived the simulated mission. Her focus wasn't on the fallen, instead, she fixated on the singular objective that drives her mission forward.
Roselda admired the way Kanha observed those around her. Her gaze conveyed indifference, as if they held no significance to her. To Roselda, Kanha embodied a reclusive predator, someone who shies away from connections with others. This intriguing aloofness only fuelled Roselda's desire to win her over even more.
She found herself drawn to Kanha's indifference, but her captivating smile faltered when she caught a glimpse of something unguarded in her aloof gaze. Slowly, she turned to follow her line of sight, her heart sinking as she realized whom Kanha was fixated on.
"Do not dare to look upon the devil, for he embodies a fate worse than death," Roselda spoke with a foreboding tone, marking a stark departure from the usual joyfulness that once filled her voice.
