"So many people died for no fault of theirs... all due to me."
Kiba laid down on the terrace.
He absentmindedly stared at the night sky while wondering about the countless families destroyed by him.
"There are also lakhs of indirect victims. They would have to face the drastic consequences of losing homes and source of livelihood... poverty is worse than death."
Claudia listened to his bitter words. He was angry, not at others but himself... for becoming a disaster in others' lives.
"Claudia... I have become a monster."
[[...Sir, you had lost sanity and your powers took advantage of that. Don't blame yourself for something you had no control on.]]
Kiba smiled bitterly.
"Insanity defense... yeah, if I was on a trial, the jury would set me free. But Claudia, the jury here is me... and I can't free myself for this."
[[....]]
Kiba jumped back to his feet. If there was anyone who didn't deserve self-pity, it was him.
