Everyone could only watch as Cassy destroyed her own eyes. Even Aster didn't anticipate such a drastic action from her! She had made a desperate, yet bold, decision on her own.
"Kuh..."
Cassy gritted her teeth, trying to suppress the searing pain. Blood streamed down her face, as though she were crying tears of blood—her expression a grim representation of her unbreakable resolve and emotions.
"With this... you can't control me!" Cassy shouted, pressing the dagger against her heart with trembling hands. "Now... do as I say!"
"..."
Lorelai gazed at Cassy, her expression unreadable. She scanned Cassy's bloodied figure, eyes lingering on the torn flesh and deep wounds, before she sighed deeply.
"Chro—"
"If you try to heal my eyes or restrain my limbs, it's useless! I'll just kill myself in another way!"
