When Mithras first made the correlation, Akamana pretended to be angry, cursing him for confusing her with another. But that was just a diversion tactic.

After all, who better than Akamana could know Manu's identity?

She wasn't the only one. As Akamana's face reveal played out, Cassandra's eyes stretched to the limit, trembling nonstop.

'Didn't I kill her? She...isn't dead? She...is Akamana? No...not her—noooo!' Cassandra refused to accept it, her eyes turning bloodshot as the truth of Manu's identity settled.

If Mithras noticed Cassandra's reaction, he didn't show it, his eyes locked on Mana.

"Akamana, Akamana, why...did you do this to me? Was it funny? Did it make you laugh?" Mithras asked in a calm and serious tone, his words and pitch putting daggers in Akamana's heart.
