Faced with Olivia's retort, Tilly's gaze flickered with a moment of panic.
"Selfish..."
"Selfish??"
She couldn't bring herself to meet Elias's eyes, obsessively muttering to herself.
"How can it be selfish? A secret like becoming a god, I only wish to share it with him..."
"You just don't understand me..."
"The ritual of becoming a god is all written in the notes. The professor succeeded, it's not dangerous at all... How could we die? I won't let Elias die..."
She kept repeating her previous assertions, trying to convince herself that what she was doing was right.
Meanwhile, Elias, listening to her ramblings, suddenly paused.
She just said the ritual was in the notes?
Elias's eyes shifted towards the desk in the room.
