Chapter 201- I Will Never Forgive You

Seeing that the two women weren\'t moving from sheer shock, Rin explained what happened before Evelyn barged into his room on her accord. The story wasn\'t long but the things he learned from it were valuable.

Especially the fact that he could be potentially a demon with the power of the one that ruled the demons, the shadow monarch. That fact alone was more than enough to turn Rin\'s position at the moment in a second. He will become from a savior and a hero to an enemy that should be eradicated.

At the end of the story, Rin took a deep breath and told them what he feared the most.

"He then said that... I have the powers of one of their kind."

"What?!" Elise was the first to react as her mouth hang open.

She had the same reaction Rin expected from her since she knew about this power as much as he did.

"I-I don\'t believe that it\'s the truth. It could be simply him trying to play with my mind so that he can get some information about me." Rin said with a sigh as he rubbed the back of his head.

No one could understand how conflicted he was at the moment, not even Elise. However, the latter quickly realized that and shook her head to get rid of the thoughts she had in her mind.

"Don\'t let it get to your head. He is definitely trying to make you doubt yourself." She said as she put her hand on his face.

"You are you, Rin. No need to overthink anything."

"Elise..." Elise\'s words came as a surprise for Rin simply because they really resonated with his heart and made him relax almost instantly as if they were some kind of magic spell.

"However, to think that something like this happened and you didn\'t even try to escape..." Suddenly, The girl\'s tone changed completely as a cold aura engulfed her body.

Her hand then moved to Rin\'s shoulder, squeezing it really hard.

"Can you please explain what you were thinking of, Rin Silvereye?" She said as she looked up with a smile that didn\'t even look like a smile.

\'Oh fuck! I\'m in huge trouble!\' Gulping down a mouthful of saliva, Rin smiled nervously as he said.

"Wait, I can explain!"

"Explain," Elise replied coldly.

"... Uh, I... I thought that since he didn\'t kill me instantly, he wasn\'t there to actually do that. I mean, no one even realized that he was there. Besides, when it comes to escaping, I\'m better than most people. He can\'t really do much if I enter my Shadow Domain."

"And you simply bet on that?" Elise asked.

"Y-Yes." Rin nodded.

He really felt like what he did made sense even though it was slightly risky but well worth it since he really got to actually talk with one of the people that want to start this war.

"I see..." Murmuring, Elise moved her hand from Rin\'s shoulder.

Then, suddenly, she grabbed Rin by the collar and pulled him closer. When the two were only a few inches away from each other, she said as she gazed deeply into his eyes.

"You are really a big idiot sometimes, Rin. So, I will explain how wrong you were in simple words so you could comprehend it."

"..."

"Did you even think about what could\'ve happened if he decided to kill you? Did you even remember that there are people who care about you? If you were to die... Rin. If you were to end up leaving this world before me... I will never forgive you, understand?"

Elise\'s face changed completely as her teeth clenched tightly in frustration. Even without understanding what she was thinking of, Rin could see the pain in her eyes. She meant every word she said to him and that affected him harder than he thought.

Rin had forgotten something important. Elise had been abandoned by her father when she was young and ended up living her life alone with no one to rely on or a shoulder to cry on. She had to do everything herself, abandoning any possible thought of caring for someone at all.

However, she met Rin and he completely changed her mind and made her believe that there are people who would care about her in this world. He even promised never to leave her behind and move on. However, what he did now was akin to abandoning Elise.

If Rin died, then who would be there for Elise? Who would she trust? Wouldn\'t she fall back into the abyss, lonely and horrified? Even with her strong front, Elise feared going back to being alone more than anyone else.

\'I\'m really an idiot, aren\'t I?\'

"I\'m sorry. I simply wanted to take the opportunity and stop the war if possible. I was trying to grab into anything that could actually make this war less catastrophic."

"War is war... people will die no matter what we do. The main goal is to end it as fast as possible. Don\'t throw your life away like that, Rin."

"Yeah, I understand."

"Ehem..."

Suddenly, Evelyn coughed to grab their attention.

"I don\'t want to cut your flirty moment. However, aren\'t we diverging from the main topic?"

"Oh! R-Right." Pulling away from Elise, Rin chuckled awkwardly.

For a moment there, he forgot that Evelyn was still with them.

"Now that I think about it. I think what that man said must\'ve had some truth to it." Evelyn said.

"What do you mean?"

"Didn\'t he say that he won\'t kill you yet? Why is that?"

"..."

"True. That means that the cult sees that Rin is valuable enough not to kill instantly. Well, we can\'t jump to conclusions yet. However, this is a very valuable information. Whether Rin does indeed have the power of a demon or not, we must keep it a secret for the time being."

"I won\'t say anything. Rin is my friend." Evelyn said as she lifted her hand.

"Good. Everyone in this place considers demons as enemies. Whether they can really understand Rin\'s situation or not is not something we can risk."
