Weak?

My heart had been pierced.

The excruciating pain that should have come with it… wasn’t there.

But something else rushed in instead of pain.

Helplessness.

Absolute helplessness before an opponent I could never defeat.

Weaklings like me couldn’t do anything, and could only kneel and pray for the strong to show mercy… Wait, what is this?

“Ghk…”

I barely managed to grab hold of my mind, which had nearly fallen into the abyss.

No, why would I think that just because there was a hole in my heart?

Is this the Hero’s Aura, too? I get stabbed, and helplessness washes over me… No, that’s backward...
