Aizel strode purposefully back into the tent, his gaze fixed ahead as he made his way towards Vespara. Without hesitation, he positioned himself beside her.
"Why did you kill them? You could have held back there," Raigun said, looking toward him.
Aizel turned his head back and looked at the man who spoke. It was Isabella's father.
At that moment, a flood of memories surged through his mind, memories that stirred within him a potent mixture of emotions.
The memory of that terrible night in Darkholm swept over him and sparked a fierce anger deep inside of him.
Aizel took a deep breath and said, " I thought they were strong... I guess I was wrong."
"And you expect that I would believe that?"
Aizel simply shrugged his shoulders in response.
"Leave the kid alone, Raigun. Don't forget you are in the presence of the King," Elric said.
