Alfred had lost his mind. Even if he hadn't completely gone insane, he was very close to it. The revelation of Waldo's true power had dealt him an unimaginable blow. The thought that Waldo might have achieved perfect transformation into an undying body had shattered his pride and confidence in an instant. It felt as if something within him had collapsed entirely at that moment, leaving him dispirited and utterly cold.

His body and internal organs had been brutally damaged. Now, Alfred was nothing but a broken man. No matter how strong his fighting spirit, he couldn't exert any of his powers.
