I didn't understand anything, but it was clear that Maximilian was calling me. I had no choice but to leave Selene with Eira and get up.
"Maximilian, don't you think doing it this way is inappropriate?"
"Don't get involved in this, Celes. I know what I'm doing. There are things I must do as a brother, and this is one of them."
I approached and listened to their exchange. I didn't understand anything, but this time it was impossible to ignore: Maximilian was looking at me with clear and direct animosity.
Before, I thought it was my imagination. Now it was very clear.
And the worst part was that I didn't remember doing anything to deserve that look... a look as if he wanted to kill me.
As far as I knew, even though in my memories he acted like a rabid dog with the exception of my alternate self, deep down he was a good person and it wasn't easy to really make him angry, unless, of course, it was my fault that his sister died.
