Both of them calmed down for a moment, then Serey spoke, "Don't you love me anymore?"
"Of course, I still love you," Aisha said calmly, "It's just... I'm just tired of this pitch-dark world."
Aisha held the baby in her arms, maintaining absolute stability in her emotions, her mind rational, and her gaze clear like a sage who has unraveled the world's mysteries.
"Serey, have you seriously thought about why you seek immortality? Is it merely to escape the Death God?"
…
By the fireplace, Sai Zong curiously asked, "Did she question you like that at the time?"
"Yes."
Serey stared at the flames in the fireplace, his eyes stinging but he didn't look away, "To think her questions back then hit me like a Heavy Hammer, I suddenly realized that, seemingly since birth, I haven't thought about such things."
