The Author's POV
Chapter 613
Calm.
When Malik's eyes stopped on me and our eyes met, I felt completely at ease.
His pressure…
It was terrifying. More than I could've bargained for. Enough to make me feel suffocated with just a single breath.

The way the world seemed so focused on him…
And the pressure that closely resembled a couple of figures I had met in the past…
Without a single doubt, he had broken through to 
"Hm?"
Before I knew it, he was a couple of steps away from me.
"You must be Ren Dover…or should I say, 876?"
His voice echoed out. It sounded crisp and pleasant to the ear, yet, at the same time, felt extremely chilly.
Nevertheless, I didn't get shaken up by his voice or pressure. At this moment, it seemed as though the emotion known as 'fear' had completely dissipated from my body.
My head tilted slightly as I asked in a rather monotonous tone.
At this point, I was starting to doubt whether the one speaking was me or the other me.
"What are you doing here?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
As he said, Malik Alshayatin, or lesser known as Hemlock, took a step to the side and gestured in the direction of Smallsnake's grave.
"...I'm here to pay a visit to my friend."
His remarks would've normally have made me angry, but as I've said before, the emotion known as "anger" vanished from my body. His reply aroused no emotion from within me.
At this point, I realized that something was wrong, yet at the same time, had no time to understand what was going on.
"Friend? Last time I heard, you were the one responsible for killing his own mother? I'm sure no friend would actually do that."
"…So he's still hung up on that."
Hemlock quietly whispered to himself.
The whisper was low, but it was audible enough for me to hear. He then repeatedly pointed toward his chest.
"You see, it was only because I was his friend that I did what I did. I did it to make sure he understood...understood just how serious the situation is. In the end, I did everything for his benefit. I wished to show him the reality of the world!...and the death of his mother was the only way that I could open up his eyes. I wanted him to understand just how feeble human life is."
Without realizing it, my brows knit as I noticed signs of agony on his face.
