"P-Please! I know what we said, but… You're crushing my-"
"Shut up." Marianne interrupted, adding even more pressure against the White Pawn's skull.
While it seemed like things were about to intensify within the Black Fog after Marianne's first attacks, it turned out completely different.
An absolute stillness ruled over the area covered by the Black Fog.
'I'm not mad enough… To kill them…' Marianne repeated the thought internally again and again. 'Why… Would I think such a thing?'
Her brows drew together.
'I know what they threatened but… To think about killing them? The thought came to me so naturally, too. This…' Her right hand, still holding the Dagger of Fire, started trembling. 'This isn't like me. This… Something…' Marianne's frown deepened. 'Something… Is happening to me. I'm not myself. I haven't been myself. Thinking about killing someone? What the hell is happening to me?!'
