Lilith's POV
Sitting before me, Saishi was looking at me with so much contempt in his eyes that it made me recall the fact that at the end of the day, he was also a human.
After all, he doesn't have the curse that I bear. After all, he will die one day and his existence will cease. And after all, he was also scared of death, like every other person I met over the years.
This is the first time I'm seeing him in so much agitation. He never raised his voice up until this moment. But it's not his fault that he doesn't know about the contract.
It's not his fault for expecting help from me, but I could do nothing except staying still and watch how events unfold. I can't interfere even if I wanted to. I hate being a dead weight.
This complete mess wasn't my fault to begin with, but one other person was responsible for this. It was all his fault. He successfully threw dirt on my name. My only fault was that I played along with his plan.
