### Summary
The chapter plunges into the fractured psyche of Kalis, who is spiraling into a dangerous delusion. Convinced that \*he\* is the one who was betrayed, his narcissistic rage is amplified by a sinister dark energy, driving him to the terrifying brink of murdering Seria. Just as he is about to succumb to this murderous impulse, he is snapped back to reality by a crystal bracelet—a past gift from Seria, a tangible reminder of the love he so carelessly threw away. While some readers speculate this corruption is Lina's doing, the consensus is that the dark magic merely feeds the monstrous entitlement already within him. His hypocrisy and lack of self-awareness have solidified his status as a "delusional cheater," and with this new, violent instability, the audience is more desperate than ever for Lesche to arrive and permanently remove this unhinged threat from Seria's life.
