— Frey Starlight's POV —
The room was dark.
Here in my lonely chamber, the place where I first opened my eyes in this world.
How many days had passed? I found myself wondering.
Sitting on my bed, I stared at the system interface with a face that no longer reflected any sort of expression... or emotion.
Every time, I thought I had reached my limit.
I told myself .. this is it, Frey. You've reached your peak.
You've endured the greatest suffering and torment, and each time, somehow, I found a way to get through it and keep moving forward, convincing myself that everything was fine.
That I had already seen it all. After everything I'd been through, I believed I had experienced every possible form of suffering, and that nothing could surprise me anymore.
But every single time ..
Life proved just how foolish I was, dragging me into a brand-new hell.
And most likely, all of this was part of that Engineer's plan… along with whoever else stood behind him.
