Seven pleaded pitifully, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes, his whole body trembling as his voice choked.
"Please, Charles, I was wrong, I really was wrong. My Beast Mastery talent isn't good enough; alchemy is the only path I can take. Have mercy and spare me," Seven said, bowing down to Charles.
The reason he had been so arrogant was entirely due to his identity as an alchemist, especially as the apprentice of Quinn, a master-level alchemist.
The deception in Charles's intelligence report had been discovered by his teacher, and after losing this alchemist duel, he would no longer be able to practice alchemy.
This effectively stripped him of the right to act recklessly and arrogantly, which he found unacceptable.
That was why he disregarded his dignity and knelt before so many people from Genosha, hoping to gain Charles's forgiveness so that he could continue practicing alchemy.
