An Extra’s POV

"I… I killed… them all…?"

Claudius felt his body grow weak and his face turned pale. Falling to his knees, he shivered uncontrollably.

He felt like vomiting.

The woman he loved stood a few feet from him, brutally murdered as a result of his insanity.

His comrades—allies that could have assisted him in taking down the enemies—were all slaughtered by his hand.

'I did this? I… I…'

"Indeed! Congratulations, I suppose!" Ater's voice echoed, delight in his tone.

Claudius' body froze the moment he heard those words.

He gazed up, ignoring the snot that dropped from his nose and the tears that overflowed.

Ater was blurry in his sight, but it wasn't like he couldn't see the man.

"YOU…"

Claudius remembered it well.

He wasn't the one who did this. He was under some kind of mind control, and the one responsible for that was the man before him.

'He killed… he used me to kill everyone!'

Claudius felt rage unlike anything he had ever felt before enveloping him.

He forgot the pain and regret that permeated his heart and focused on the rawest and most primal emotion that kept rising at an astronomical rate.

—RAGE!

"I'LL KILL YOU!" Claudius roared, pointing his staff at Ater's stationery self.

"Kill him, Death Knight!"

~WHOOSH!~

Claudius let his desire run wild in his mind.

He wanted to see Ater bleed.

Beg! Suffer! Cry!

And then repeat the same process over and over again until he finally died.

His mouth watered as his eyes bulged like a madman.
