Chapter 42

I remained kneeling in front of his majesty while holding my numb cheek. My tears did not stop falling, not because of the weight of his hand that hit me but because of the knowledge that my own brother had hurt me.

In the several hundred years we have been brothers and sisters together, not once have I raised my voice or raised my hands by majesty. He is also like Caleb, Evan, Finn, Casper, and Zen, who are ready to protect me at any time.

but the moment his hand touched my cheek, I was not only physically hurt. It's not just pain from being separated from Adam that I feel at this time, but also pain from the knowledge that not one of my brothers is willing to abandon the policy of this world just to support me.

I love my brothers so much that I can do everything to not hurt them or see them cry. But this time, I don't know if they feel the same way about me. My brothers, who are tender and always smile at me, didn't even move while observing my non-stop tears.
