Chapter 414

“D*mn you…” King’s entire body shook, unsure if it was due to sorrow or fury.

Next to him, Leon, typically known for his aloofness, also sported red eyes.

What was Oliver implying? Deep down, they both suspected his lofty justifications were likely mere reassurances to pacify them, apprehensive of their potential distress.

But how could they remain unaffected?

He was their best friend, someone who had stood by them through every trial and triumph for years, a buddy who would willingly put himself in harm’s way to protect the others. The connection between them was beyond words, impossible to fully capture in mere descriptions.

With a loud slap, King struck himself hard on the cheek, instantly causing it to swell.

“It’s my mistake. I shouldn’t have been so severe. I was aware… His voice broke, unable to continue.

He realised his words were sharp, he understood the hurt they caused Oliver. He knew Oliver would never deceive them. Why couldn’t he control his anger?

Oliver seemed relaxed, but he was quite emotional. He feared that his presence might jeopardize their mission and couldn’t bear the guilt of seeing his friends in Halturia killed before his eyes. So, he chose to poison himself into silence.

He really was a gentle person!

Next to him, Leon lifted a hand to stop another self- imposed strike, regret evident on his face. “It’s not only your responsibility, it’s mine as well.”

If he had stepped in during King’s outburst or offered more solace to Oliver, maybe things wouldn’t have escalated.

Noticing their regret, Oliver became uncomfortable. He opened his mouth, wanting to offer some comfort, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the metallic taste he’d just managed to swallow surged back up. Unable to suppress it any longer, he coughed up a mouthful of bright red blood, staining the front of his clothes.
