Luck!

"...Then please... don't sugarcoat this with any lies." Asmodeus hiccupped. "Did you...even for a second... ever even love me at all?"

"..."

From the other side of the door, Asmodeus kept his sobs in as he sat on the ground. He clenched his jaw.

You were taking an awfully long time to respond.

...

"...I don't think you'll appreciate more lies at this point." You spoke blankly. "...Then, I'll just say it."

"I didn't."

He felt his heart shatter.

Before he could help it, clear liquid escaped his eyes. His vision blurred as more of his tears fell more frequently.

So...

Indeed, it was nothing but a mere hoax?

You... you just lied to him all that time?

...

(M/n), you deceived him, didn't you?

...

"...I'm really sorry, but I can't lie to you in this situation." You placed a hand on the door as you sighed. You felt the faint vibration from the door, presumably from Asmodeus himself.

This made you even guiltier.

But lying to him was worse, wasn't it?

Or at least you thought it was.

"...(M/n), you...!" Asmodeus gritted his teeth. You pressed your lips together silently.

Then you let out a shallow exhale.

"I believe this is something you should have moved on from long ago."

Yes.
