In this world, the only person capable of killing him is Selena. But Selena has already killed him once, and there will never be a second time. No one else has the qualifications or ability to kill him!
The man seemed to carefully consider Aarav's words before furrowing his brow in distress and smiling at Aarav. "Although it sounds reasonable, how do you plan on making me willingly die by your hand?"
Aarav looked directly into his eyes and wiped away the bloodstain from his mouth. "Before coming to the underground city, the monarch gave me a recording."
"It was left for you by her."
The man's smile suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Aarav's whip wrapped around his neck and tightened little by little. "Actually, she forgave you a long time ago."
"She came to believe that you never betrayed her." The whip dug into flesh and blood seeped out.
"And... I'm sorry." Sorry for not believing his explanation, running out on her own accord, causing him to lose his lover.
The man's face turned a ghastly shade of pale, his eyes dark and unblinking, fixed on Aarav.
He saw Aarav retrieve a familiar phone from his body and press the record button.
Then, a gentle and sweet voice emanated from the phone, weak and out of tune, carrying deep apologies and love.
"Truman, don't be sad," she said softly.
"I'm sorry. I didn't believe you and I didn't protect your precious treasure," he replied with regret.
"I love you."
The man froze in place at her words. He stared at the phone, mesmerized, and slowly reached out his hand to take it.
Aarav did not stop him.
After more than a decade, the phone that carried endless regrets finally had a chance to return to its owner's hands.
The man stared at the phone in his palm for a long time as tears rolled down his cheeks. Finally, he smiled contentedly.
This time, he could finally go see his lover again.
He looked up and locked eyes with Aarav who was covered in blood on the other side of the room. "I'll tell you a secret about that girl," he said with a light chuckle.
Aarav's calm and indifferent expression finally changed as he listened intently.
The man looked at him with an ambiguous smile. "She's pregnant - only one month along - but her position is unstable..."
Aarav's pupils suddenly shrank in shock as fear crept into his heart.
"Do you think she already knows your identity?" The man's expression was hidden by darkness as he spoke softly but menacingly. "If she remembers who you are and all she sees is your dead body... do you think her child will survive?"
Going to see his lover, he is enough by himself.
It's better not to follow this child he unintentionally had with another woman.
The man then pulled out a black dagger from his body and stabbed him in the heart.
He was finally kind to Aarav once.
He did not let Aarav bear the sin of patricide with his own hands.
The man's lips curved into a smile as he fell backwards and closed his eyes.
This time, he can finally welcome his true end and death.
