Imogen and Kyrie share a moment of silence, staring at each other to see what clue their eyes can pick up.
"How do you know it would interest me?" Kyrie frowns.
"Because you have chosen to be a paladin, the most logical assumption is that you did not know."
"Oh? Then I would like to hear it," Kyrie's palms are starting to sweat, and his heart is beating up to his throat. He tries not to hang his emotions on his face.
"You seem to have always disliked me for some reason. Since you know some things about the previous loops, you must hate me for killing Ian. Isn't it right?"
Imogen confirms her question with Kyrie's silence. Kyrie knows that Imogen kills Ian at the end of the novel, but the reason has never been specified.
"The reason I kill him every loop is because Ian cannot remain on my side," Imogen's voice deepens.
Kyrie frowns, with his head flinching slightly back in confusion.
