In a Moment of His Lucidity

His head ached painfully while he covered his injured eye and pressed his palm on it, trying to lessen the pain. Kian's anger reached the next level.

Why couldn't he kill the devil? If it wasn't for him, Ririna would have chosen him a long time ago. Damn it all. Why was it that every time he tried to seek Ririna, everyone was getting in his way?

He was startled when he was almost hit on his arm. His eyes widened when he saw the devil standing several meters away from him with a gun pointed at him. Eli shot him again, and he hissed when it hit his abdomen.

This shouldn't have happened. The devil should have been dead as well as his child. Was this the end for him? For years, he tried his best to prove himself to everyone.

Kian hid behind the nearest pillar and checked the magazine of his gun. All of his efforts were for Ririna. Five years ago, he started receiving rank-A missions to gain wealth and popularity, but when he went to find Ririna, she had left the country.
