Shuu felt determined to break through the barrier holding himself back. It was a decision that felt sudden but was a cumulative result of Shuu's suffering and his desire to gain power until now.
'Are you sure about this? You might start regretting this soon. But that time, it will be too late to do anything about it.'
The voice reminded Shuu, and he smiled a bitter smile.
"I know that there is a chance I will regret it. But still-! It would be worse if I did not even try."
Shuu felt like he was explaining this all to himself and trying to reassure his own heart that he was doing the right thing.
The voice inside his mind went quiet for a minute, and Shuu waited for it to say something. And then, it finally started to speak again.
'If this is the path you have chosen, then do not hesitate. Your power shall accompany you once more. But if it goes out of control this time, the only option would be death.'
