Kei Xun continued.
She extracted Linthia's Soul Artifact, ignoring the raw, throaty scream coming from her.
'Suffer this pain and forfeit, child... Don't fight it,' She thought dearly, gazing at Rex with soft, tender eyes, as if she was also feeling the same pain as he felt right now. A pitying gaze, but contained hope. 'Let this pain break you so you don't need to feel the pain in the future, that is waiting for you as long as you're in this race, on this road.'
'I'm giving you a chance...' Kei Xun thought, shedding a tear. 'One that I didn't have back then when I was young, naive, and ambitious.'
It was for the best.
At least for Kei Xun, this would help Rex in the long run.
Believing it with fervor, she gripped Linthia's Soul Artifact tighter and pulled harder.
Linthia screamed louder, the pain was beyond imagining.
Rex could do nothing in this situation, and the death of Linthia would hopefully break his will.
Only then could he see reason and meaning behind her actions.
