Throughout the night, Hawrin's room was filled with screams. Unfortunately, not a single soul ca to help him. The rooms that were made to give students privacy was having an effect that no one could've expected when the academy was made.
No one had expected that soone could go inside the room and attempt to murder spending in the middle of the night. Unfortunately, that's precisely what was happening.
Gabriel stood up, observing the floor that was covered in blood. There were multiple wounds all over Hawrin's body. In fact, there was still a knife stabbed on the elbow of Hawrin, who was trying to beg for his life, despite having no tongue to speak.
"You were right, Hawrin. I am a demon. Only a demon can do what I'm doing in the way I'm doing, but I embrace the fact that I'm a demon. The world wanted to be a demon so bad that I wholeheartedly accept. I beca what you all wanted to do... And this is just the beginning."
"I've changed for the world. I've beco what the world wanted to beco. It's ti the world becos what I want it to beco... And that day isn't far either... I wish you were here to see the end of the story you created..."
He glanced out the window. It was almost the ti for sunrise. "Unfortunately, we are out of ti... We'll have to end it."
"Aaaeee! Aaa!"
Hawrin tried speaking. His eyes remained bloodshot and his words incomprehensible. Despite that, Gabriel understood what he was trying to say.
"You're asking to forgive you? And that you'll be my slave forever if I let your live?" Gabriel took a guess since that was the only thing that he could expect from a person like Hawrin.
Hawrin nodded hastily. He had been pleading like a dog to be left alive.
"Sure. Why didn't you say that before? And here I thought you'd never ask. I was almost about to kill you!" Gabriel picked up Hawrin by his shoulders. "I did need a servant. And you'll be just perfect."
" I forgive you..." Gabriel slowly said. After everything Hawrin went through, he wasn't going to believe anything until Gabriel actually left.
Still, there was a small flicker of hope in his heart. He had never expected that his small mistake could co back to haunt him like a demon. If he did, he would've stayed as far away from Gabriel as possible. Let alone killing Gabriel, he wouldn't even dream of it when they were back in the town. So many problems could've been avoided.
"Wait, I rember sothing. I've forgiven you, but there's still one person you need to ask forgiveness for. You didn't just talk about that night, right? There was one more person you talked about... There is one more person you should ask forgiveness from..."
Gabriel tightly clenched his fist, holding the collar of the man firmly before swinging him around.
He tossed Hawrin's body straight to the Glass window in the distance.
Hawrin's body was tossed with such force that his body shattered the glass. However, not far from the body, there ca a knife which was also tossed by Gabriel.
"Ask forgiveness from my mother..." Gabriel muttered. A knife stabbed the back of Hawrin's head, finally putting him to death, but not before his body plopped on the concrete floor outside.
Hawrin's lifeless eyes remained open even as he took his last breath, unable to believe that his one mistake brought him to this turn in his life...
All his life, he dreamt of becoming a Holy Priest of the Church of Light... That was his dream ever since he was a child, just like everyone else in the village.
Unfortunately, he wasn't as talented. He awakened his Elent of Light very late in his life. Even then, he didn't lose hope of being selected by the Church of Light. His dream was about to co true. He even heard the news that the Head Priest was coming to the town to select a disciple. He was so excited... He was so happy that day.
But right before his eyes, the Head Priest declared that he was in the village for soone else... He was in the village for an orphan who was younger than him. Hawrin felt enraged... He felt insulted... He felt his dreams shatter right before his eyes.
He was so angry that he followed after Gabriel to ask him to leave the village forever, so the position could go to him.
However, as soon as he left the Church, he saw Gabriel laughing and playing around with his friend. Gabriel's laughter felt like a slap on his face. It was as if Gabriel was laughing at his broken dreams. Hawrin was filled with even more hate and rage. He decided to take matters into his own hands.
He didn't want to ask anyone for what belonged to him! He wasn't going to tell Gabriel to give him the position! He decided to Snatch everything! He decided to Snatch what belonged to him. And for that, he took his brother's help, who also agreed after a lot of convincing.
That night, they went to Gabriel's house, waiting for everyone to sleep so they could barge inside, but before that, Gabriel ca out with Maya and went to the roof.
While Gabriel and Maya talked under the beautiful moonlight, the two brothers waited for the right opportunity, which ca when Maya left.
Hawrin finally had what he wanted. He had Gabriel in his grasp and revenge within his reach. He killed Gabriel, and he did so brutally, unloading all his rage and anger that he had accumulated throughout the years on Gabriel.
He thought that was the end of it. He thought the Head Priest wasn't going to go back empty-handed. He thought now that Gabriel was gone, he was going to be selected. But that didn't happen... He wasn't selected.
Not only did his one action fail to help him, but it also indirectly led to his father and brother's death. Even as he died, he couldn't believe what one mont... One mont of anger brought him...
When he took Gabriel's life, he could never have imagined that Gabriel was going to kill him instead. He wondered if it was karma... Or was it the Divine punishnt? With those questions in his head, he took his last breath.
The shattering of glass was a sound that couldn't be ignored. The sound was enough to wake many people in the nearby rooms from their sleep. However, that much ti was enough for Gabriel to leave the room.
He once again used a disguise and walked back to his floor, avoiding any eyes. He went to his room only after making sure that the hallway was empty.
While the lower floor was in chaos, Gabriel's floor was very peaceful as everyone was asleep. No one here heard the sound of glass breaking.
Gabriel walked inside the room. He took off his spotless clothes and went straight for a shower. Throughout the day, he made sure that not a single droplet of blood ca into his clothes since if there was an investigation, their clothes were definitely going to be checked.
Within minutes, people started realizing what had happened. They watched a dead body lying at the entrance of the Dorms...
