"Impossible? Then what is standing before you now?" the shadow of anger said.
"This must be an illusion, right? Hehehe, yes, it must be an illusion," Ryutaro said, despairing.
"An illusion? No, this is not an illusion. This is a glimpse of your future—where you fail to protect your women," the shadow of anger replied.
Hearing those words from the shadow, Ryutaro immediately felt despair upon facing that harsh truth.
But in the midst of his hopelessness, suddenly Alex—who had not been heard for a long time—spoke to him.
"Don't accept that decision. Remember your promise to your women," Alex said.
"But? This is all my future. I cannot protect them. I'm breaking my promise," Ryutaro said.
