Unicorn: Just imagine for a second.

    Unicorn: You had a sword.

    Unicorn: A magical sword that could cut through anything. People praised me for having it. They admired me. They turned me into a hero. They gave me everything. Built everything for me. I could have whatever I wanted.

    Unicorn: But what if...

    Unicorn: What if that sword broke?

    Unicorn: Or even worse, what if it felt like it could break at any moment? What should I do then?@@@@

    There has never been a recorded case of an Awakened losing their powers.

    At least, not while I was still active.

    But Unicorn just admitted that she felt like her power was disappearing.

    And I had nothing to say to that.

    This was something outside my understanding—something I couldn''t possibly do anything about.

    And I understood.

    Because once, I had been at the top, too.

    Once, I had been the target of all the pointing fingers.

    Even now, I was trapped in this execution ground called Outpost 328 because of the reputation my past had given me.

    Maybe that was why she was so afraid of falling.

    “······.”

    I had to take a moment to think before responding.

    Holds a grudge because I didn''t reply to their commentRepeatedly insults me for being a "game-anbun" (14 times)Says it''s disgusting for a man to act cute online

    The contrast between what was happening in my inbox and my reality was absurd.

    I closed the memo tab.
