The unconscious Ram looked like she was merely asleep.

“…Ram?”

Picking up her listless body from the ground, Roswaal called out the girl’s name. There was no reply. Normally, Ram would make Roswaal’s words her first priority, putting all other things aside, but now…

—Now she was on death’s door, and the one responsible was none other than Roswaal.

“So you lost your temper when she burned the book. Not like you at all. But she was prepared for even this. I think she really is a strong girl.”

Puck looked down at Ram’s charred form as he spoke, his oversize form having long since dissipated. After taking a direct hit from a fiery shot, his mana-composed body was faintly thinner than before. But the respect in his voice was genuine, and he surely retained enough power to flatten the dazed Roswaal.

However, Puck did no such thing, seemingly content to hover silently as the battle was postponed.

“…Ram.”

Roswaal paid Puck no heed as he embraced the girl’s slender body and called her name.

He could not remember what he had been thinking until he had picked up Ram’s prone body a moment before.

He still could not comprehend why Ram had confronted him, exhausting her strength until she was on the brink of death.

To Roswaal, Ram was a useful and convenient pawn. She was invaluable in terms of strength and mental prowess; more than anything, her vengeful heart, which was aimed at Roswaal, made her flawless.

He’d genuinely thought he was fine granting another control over his final moments…as long as it was her.

With her vengeful heart unceasingly continuing to blaze within her, she would obey him until the very end, at which point he would offer himself to her, no longer caring that his soul would be seared away by the fires of her revenge.

She had betrayed him—in a way he had never fathomed and for a reason he did not comprehend.

“Ram, why did you…?”

Had she changed? Had her feelings taken a new shape? He could not understand.

All of one’s emotions ought to continue in the same manner from the moment when they glimmered at their strongest.

If you truly loved someone, if you truly hated someone, that passion, that radiance, should remain constant for eternity.

It was holding on to hopes and desires for a long, long time that made them truly genuine. Over long months and years, feeling hardened so that nothing and no one could undermine them. That was the ideal.

Garfiel’s hateful heart toward what rested beyond the Sanctuary should never have been broken.

Time should not have healed Emilia’s aversion and regrets toward the past.

And that went for Ram’s inexhaustible hatred and vengeful heart toward Roswaal all the more.

Master Roswaal, Ram loves you.

“You’ve lost, Roswaal.”

The confession of love had been burned into his ears like a curse.

Even that moment, in his arms with her eyes closed, the girl’s lips were pursed with an expression of emotion that should not have existed.

Roswaal made a faint noise in his throat as he mulled and deciphered these things in his mind.
