After the long run, sweat streamed down Silvanus's face, yet his expression remained almost unchanged.
He stared at Daisy, carefully studying her.
She seemed to understand why.
"He was sent out already," she said softly.
There was no need to ask who he referred to.
Silvanus slowly walked toward Daisy. Seemingly puzzled, he asked, "Do I really look that concerned about Nick?"
Daisy paused for a moment before the corners of her lips curved into a faint smile.
"I just thought... if you've decided to protect someone, then you'll protect them to the very end."
Silvanus remained silent.
Looking at him, Daisy's smile carried an unmistakable sadness.
"If I had met you sooner... would you have protected me too?"
Silvanus still said nothing.
His mind had been occupied with figuring out how the dungeon's script worked, yet at this moment, he found himself truly feeling Daisy's pain.
[Don't tell me you people actually used an ordinary person's fate to create this monster?]
