The man gazed gently at Chu Mo and asked softly, "Tell me, what happens when someone falls into despair?"
Chu Mo lowered his head and slowly gave his answer. "They struggle desperately, then run out of strength, then become twisted, and finally... become someone who makes others fall into despair."
He spoke more and more slowly, his tone growing colder and more chilling.
But the man kept his usual faint smile, as if he hadn't noticed the change in Chu Mo's tone.
Chu Mo looked up and studied the man's expression. "Aren't you afraid?"
The man only sighed and reached out to stroke his hair. "Don't be afraid."
At the time, Chu Mo thought: Sure enough, people like this make you... really want to kill them.
