Aster frowned upon seeing Ramuja's extreme reaction. His frightened reaction reminded him of someone who just got sentenced to death. Ramuja was shaking, even his lips were trembling. He was holding tears that only welled in his eyes, but didn't fall to his cheek.
It looked like someone who went through horrible trauma.
"Ramuja? What happened to you?" Aster approached Ramuja. He reached Ramuja's head with his hand and Ramuja reacted wildly. He slapped Aster's hand hard.
"Ah!"
"NO, GO AWAY!" Ramuja screamed like a madman. He was still on the floor, but his expression was so bitter and scared that he didn't even recognize his master. His eyes were focused on Lady Merse who frowned slightly, but seemed nonchalant with his behavior.
