"BRGH!"
A burst of black blood shot out from my mouth, splattering onto the ground.
I wiped it off with the sleeve of my black coat, not caring that the fabric was soaked through with that foul taste.
It didn't matter.
"F-fucking hell..."
I muttered under my breath, feeling the poison still pulsing through my veins. It burned, a searing heat that made my limbs feel like lead, but I kept walking forward.
Where was I going?
The cathedral.
I needed to meet Christina.
Just one last time.
I couldn't believe it, though.
The damn knights of the Royal Knights Order—poisoned attacks?
That wasn't part of the plan.
But still... I wasn't dead yet.
"However... my plan did work. That's what matters."
I gritted my teeth, staggering a bit as I kept walking, forcing my body to push forward.
The pain was unbearable, but it was worth it.
I'd made an impact—fear had been instilled in the Emperor's mind.
And Lilith... she was definitely interested in me.
