Aether blankly stared at the visuals of his broken, crying mother, the woman who could do nothing except watch her son suffer because of her love.
Her face was distorted by helplessness, her blood tears continuing to fall as she endured every second of his suffering without being able to reach him.
Aether's eyes remained completely empty and lifeless as he slowly turned his gaze toward his birth father.
Head flinched at the change in Aether's expression and hurriedly tried to defend himself.
"S-See, this is what she brought upon herself! I told her to leave… I gave her a chance to walk away, but she stubbornly stayed.
A-And she was the one who sealed me first… I-If anything, she was the one who started all this.
If not for her, you would have lived a wonderful life!
You should be angry at her! Not me!"
"All this time…" Aether's voice was quiet, almost disturbingly calm. His eyes remained fixed on the head.
"You made her watch and cry?"
