"What do you want to do now? Kill Teda? I can help you with that, or destroy Alice, I can do that too."
"I can make Teda regret endlessly, make him live in pain and guilt for the rest of his life. I can inflict all worldly tortures upon him!"
Alice pressed close to Aimou, resolutely saying, "As long as you choose me, I will be almighty."
Aimou shook her head.
"No, I don’t want to hurt anyone, Alice was dead from the start, it has nothing to do with him. Teacher... the teacher was just too persistent..."
Alice fell silent, then she sneered.
"Look, Aimou is truly kind. You can understand them, but who understands you? Who can love you?"
"You’re right, your wish is really insignificant, worthless. As long as Teda is willing to show you a little bit of love, you are willing to self-sacrifice... Even if he’s pretending, you can accept it."
But even this small wish cannot be fulfilled."
Alice became angry, "You should be a bit more selfish, Aimou."
She clenched her fist forcefully, as if to grasp fate.
"You should think about yourself! Don’t make wishes for others, make the wish you truly desire for yourself!"
Aimou slightly lifted her head, showed a sad gaze, and once again questioned, "Alice is already dead, who are you really?"
Alice smiled at this, her voice soft, without deceit.
"Does it matter who I am now?"
Aimou silently shook her head, "Yes, it doesn’t matter anymore."
A bitter laughter arose, Aimou leaned her head against the wall, talking to herself.
"I read a sentence in a book, apart from pain and disease, all human suffering comes from their own thoughts."
"But I don’t suffer from pain and disease, all my suffering comes from myself."
Aimou slowly closed her eyes, no one would choose her resolutely, even if it meant death."
She dared not test others’ intentions, rather than trusting others, it was better to march forward in loneliness initially."
Suddenly Aimou understood why humans like to keep pets, only pets absolutely belong to oneself, and only pets absolutely won’t betray."
Only through absolute possession of a person, a thing, or something to entrust emotions, can humans give all their emotions without reservation, without fear, without cost..."
In fact, Aimou already knew who Alice was, but she didn’t feel scared."
Aimou just felt it was absurd, like a destined fate, you know what will happen, yet unable to stop it."
There’s nothing to stop anymore."
So Aimou reached out her hand and grasped a piece of shattered illusion."
Aimou made a wish, a selfish wish."
A series of knocks sounded, the doorknob was turned, but when the door opened, it wasn’t the familiar corridor behind it, only chaos and darkness."
The familiar figure walked out of the darkness, his body surrounded by a mad aura."
"I got the Fantasy Species... so we’re even, Delusional."
Gray said placing the iron box at his feet, he didn’t linger, nor say another word, he closed the door and disappeared into the hazy darkness."
Only Aimou was left alone, curled up indoors, as the song began to rise."
"I want a perfect shell, a complete soul."
"I wish to be like you, yet I am so strange, out of place."
