My dear friend, the stars and the moon are still the same, the mountains and rivers are still the same, but you are no longer here.

"Krevy, what are you going to do with this...Sophia's slice?"

The cold voice of Alechino seemed to still linger in his ears, and the scene of questioning him was as clear as if it were replaying yesterday.

Crevy still clearly remembers every move and every word of Alechino.

At that time, Alechino's face was as cold as ice, without any expression, and his eyes were as calm as a thousand-year-old well, deep and cold, and no matter how the wind blew, it could not cause a ripple.

However, such calm eyes can inspire fear, and the hint of madness that is faintly revealed in them is even more creepy.

As a close friend of Alecino who had known and accompanied Alecino for many years, Clavi had seen Alecino so calm and composed before, but the Alecino in front of her, who was cold and mad, still made her feel uneasy.

Although Alecino tried her best to appear to be indifferent to Anastasia on the surface, Clavi knew in her heart that Alecino's heart was far from as calm as she appeared.

After all, Alecino's only real friends are Klevi and Sophia.

Arlecchino's concern for Sophia's slice, Anastasia, was probably far greater than others imagined, perhaps even far more than Krevy.

This concern and attention hidden deep in her heart forced Alecino to force herself to remain calm when facing this matter, even though it was difficult for her to remain absolutely calm.

"What should we do with Anastasia? Alechino, to be honest, I really don't know."

Krevie's originally bright eyes were now flickering, revealing her inner struggle and confusion.

When faced with such a difficult problem, I have to admit that I am indeed inferior to Arlecino.

After all, Arlecchino was able to successfully restrain the influence of her personal emotions on her decision-making. However, she herself had long been controlled by her emotions and had completely lost her reason and judgment.

"Krevy, you must understand one thing clearly. Anastasia is just a tool carefully created by Dotole to threaten us. She can never be the real Sophia!"

Alechino's voice was as icy as the cold wind in a freezing night, without any warmth at all.

At the same time, her pair of white jade-like hands were clenched into fists, and even the sharp and slender nails on the fingertips pierced deeply into the flesh of the palms.

But even so, Alechino still chose to turn a blind eye and ignored the piercing pain.

Because for her, this kind of physical pain helps her to calm down quickly, so that she can keep a clear mind and think about how to deal with the situation.

Even though blood was slowly seeping out of her palms and staining her sleeves red, she kept staring at Krevie intently and unwaveringly, as if she wanted to penetrate her with her gaze.

"I know, I know... I have to put the overall situation first. Of course I understand this. But every time I think about facing Sofia, my mind becomes a mess and I can't think about anything calmly."

"She is our best friend! Our only best friend! Even if the Anastasia that appears now is just a slice of Sofia and not the complete Sofia in the true sense, I still cannot accept such a cruel fact in my heart..."

At this point, Krevy's voice began to tremble slightly, with tears welling up in her eyes.

For Krevy, the most painful thing she had ever experienced in her life was watching her best friend being murdered right in front of her, while she could only stand there helplessly like a bystander. The deep feeling of powerlessness almost made her collapse.

"If you can't do it because you feel so guilty about Sophia, then let me handle this matter."

Alechino, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. Her voice was unusually low, as if she was carrying a heavy burden.

At the same time, her eyes were dim, revealing an unspeakable sadness and helplessness.

"Sophia's departure cannot be blamed on you, Krevy. The situation we faced at the time was too dangerous. Each of us was surrounded by enemies several times our number. We could not even guarantee our own safety, so how could we possibly be able to support others?"

"So, there is absolutely no need for you to feel guilty or blame yourself for this."

Alechino gently patted Krevy's shoulder, trying to give her some comfort.

Although Alechino said this on the surface, in fact, the guilt and self-blame she suffered deep in her heart were no less than that of Krevii, and even more so.

Over the years, Alecino has always harbored deep resentment towards herself. She blames herself for her stupidity and ignorance, resents her own weakness, and even more hates her own indecision at critical moments.

Whenever she thought of the past that she couldn't bear to recall, Alechino's heart felt as painful as if it had been hit by a heavy hammer.

If she had been able to unleash the power of the Red Moon Curse hidden in her blood earlier, perhaps Sophia could have been spared?

After all, as a relic of the Red Moon Dynasty, Sophia would surely be able to escape as long as she could successfully awaken that mysterious and powerful force.

However, has the cruel real world ever given people too many "ifs"?

It was precisely because of her stupidity and mediocre talent that Alechino was ultimately unable to save the life of her best friend Sophia before the shadow of death loomed. Instead, it was the heavy blow of her best friend's death that triggered the Red Moon Curse in her body.

Whenever she thought of this, Arlecino's hatred for herself grew stronger - she had paid the price of her best friend's death to gain such powerful power today.

This pain and regret intertwined together, like an invisible chain, tightly entangled her soul, making it difficult to break free.

"So, let me take care of this slice of Sophia. Although it's unfair to her, there is no fairness in this world."

"Because she is a slice of Sophia, and because I cannot allow Sophia's existence to be desecrated, I will not allow this slice named Anastasia to live."

Alechino said so, with a cold tone.

Krevy didn't reply for a moment, but just stared at Alecino blankly, as if she wanted to see through Alecino's thoughts.
