I stared unbelievably as this cursed remnant of a friend stared at me. Besides the brand, he looked like the same old Farv to me. It's the same stupid grin, the same mischievous, smart eyes. He still had the same demeanor as a scientist. If it wasn't for that stupid brand, I could believe that he was going to ask if I wanted some food he had just made. He was even the one who taught me how to cook.
Him and Mom, I thought as I heard my sword clatter against the ground. There was no way I could fight him now... even if he was irreversibly changed. This... this isn't fair!
My last view of my friend turned blurry as tears flowed down my face. I was too late... too late for everyone. I knew in my heart that something similar to this happened to Roan as well. To Aruna.
I ignored the pestering my system was currently doing, trying to force itself into my mind. The truth is, I'm done. I can't do it anymore. Everything's dead. What the hell am I supposed to save?
