Zeke's mind went blank, he was utterly clueless as to what he should do in a situation like this.
Without a doubt, this was not the first time he had seen someone cry. He had had a lot of experiences observing others. Just by casually walking down the street, he could see one or two children wailing loudly with their faces flushed red, fat droplets of tears rolling down their cheeks without stopping as if their bodies were made of water. Once, he had also seen his servant secretly wiping her tears when she thought that nobody was looking, because she was unable to leave the Palace to visit her sick mother. He had even tried to do it himself when his Imperial Father collapsed due to yet another illness.
However… the stupid assassin was different. He had never seen someone cry like this before.
