EVERYTHING was just exactly how Edmund described it. From his sudden lost of consciousness to Aster begging for their lives.
"Please, s-sir. W-we didn't put anything on the food we s-served you. Please, don't blame us. I b-beg you. Please, believe me. W-we really didn't. We have n-no intention of h-hurting His Highness. We could n-never do something like that! P-please… please, don't punish my family. Pl-please… please don't kill us!"
Aster shouted those words as tears flew down from those black eyes. Those eyes as dark as the night sky.
Wulfric suddenly couldn't move. His whole body just froze up. He couldn't remove his gaze from the screen. At the image of Aster whose tears continued to flow down. At his tear-stricken face filled with fear. His whole body was trembling. As if he couldn't maintain the fear that was currently coursing through his veins. Even on the screen, that fear was very palpable.
