Black Shadow: Gangster X Family
Apology to Victor

For 3 more hours all the members of the dorm listened to Victor's story in the past, All the memories as well as the relationship of each member was told by Victor clearly and in detail so that not a single story was left behind.

Why did Victor have to tell him? Because During a past red devil incident, Justin's soul disappeared and left Victor the only one in control of their body. That's why Justin let Victor tell him everything.

Victor drank his tea for a moment, invigorating his dry throat from too long a story.

"So the last thing I remember was Ezra and Chloe beating me. My memory ended there, and I honestly started to realize that Justin wasn't as bad as I thought he was" Victor let out a slow breath. "I'm sorry to have used you, made you pawns for my cause,"

Victor smiled faintly. "Justin is very grateful to all of you members, because you are willing to sacrifice your lives to the end. Your loyalty and sacrifice made me realize that you were his best family,"

Victor's gaze momentarily shaded. "Therefore I immediately accepted my punishment after I met Justin there," Victor's gaze turned to Ezra who looked at him in silence. "I'm also grateful to you and Chloe, both of you have taken care of and maintained the dorm as well as possible after our departure and completed the mission well. That's why Justin and I are begging Holy to bring us all together in the second life,"

"And now that we're all reunited, I want to fix our relationship as it used to be. I hope that in this second life we can keep each other so that the events in the red devil do not happen again. Forgive me for all my past mistakes" Victor added.

"Second life? In this life I am no longer human..." Devian said with a blank look at Victor, Unknowingly holding his neck. "I died because of that fucking Liam?!"

"We've all died because of red devil incidents in the past, no one has survived even including Ezra and Chloe who died last," Victor glanced at Ezra who was still silent, The look of the Emerland-styled man still seemed empty as if he was digesting Victor's story just now.

"Me and Justin plead with Holy to bring us all to life in this life not as human beings anymore, so I hope that you will not easily die during the fight later,"

"Wait first! You are begging us not to live as human beings anymore in this life. But why does Chloe still have the human race, isn't that cheating?!" Raizel said no.

"It happened because his body from the beginning was indeed human in this life, so when his body in the past was dead then his soul will return to his original body. While we don't have a real body in this life so automatically we have a different race to it," Victor obviously spent one cake that was in his hands.

"I've guessed you guys were previously in a relationship," Livian said rubbing her chin while noticing one by one the expressions of the other members.

"Well right, but why don't you guys feel familiar with each other?" Neil looked confused.

"Don't know, Maybe because our memories are sealed," Devian shuddered his shoulders indifferently.

"By those of you who don't want to remember it or have your memory sealed, those are the only two possibilities" Victor added. "The rest of your memories are part of each of you, if you feel you have a memory with one of the other members, it's up to you to do it,"

Everything became silent after Victor's last words. Ezra, bowed with mixed feelings, stood up and suddenly pulled the collar of Victor's clothes until the owner looked up. Ezra's gaze looked sharp with a flash of fury emanating clearly in his emerland green net.

"In past lives we all died because of you shit! You made us all pawns and teamed up with the red devils! You think an apology is enough to make up for all your past mistakes?!" Snapped Ezra full of anger. "If you and Justin weren't one body, I'd've beaten your face before!"

The rest of the members could only shut up and watch Ezra who let out all her anger on Victor.

"I know, even without you mentioning it twice I've noticed it," Reply Victor tried to calm down. "My mistakes in the past are mistakes in the present as well, I'm trying to fix them now. My relationship with Justin and you, even if it could be your dreams in the past that you haven't achieved. I'll try to make up for it whatever it is,"

Victor's solemn gaze and tone of voice made Ezra speechless, The man gritted his teeth for a moment before releasing his grip from Victor's collar.

Without warning he clenched his hand and directly hit Victor's face firmly. He no longer cared about Victor or Justin.

MAAM!

Victor, who was hit hard by Ezra, fell off the couch, staring in disbelief at his secretary while holding his bruised cheek for a moment.

While the other members were still silent, not wanting to interfere. In each heart they are actually as upset as Ezra (Minus Neil, Livian, and Rea). Neil was flabbergasted because this was the first time he had seen Ezra hit Justin (While the controlling man was Victor).

"Rare events" muttered Livian. Rea beside Livian only agreed.

"Ezra..," murmured Victor looked at Ezra's nanar who was still looking at him sharply.

"Bodo with your apology, you deserve it Victor!" Reply Ezra still with his sharp gaze.

He immediately walked away from there after hitting Victor's face, of course with anger that still controlled him.

After Ezra's departure, Victor stared at his other members.

"What y'all...Still haven't forgiven me?" Ask her carefully.

"You should reflect on your past mistakes, Don't talk to me if you're still not fully aware" Aiden replied with a flat glance.

He stood following Ezra out of the room.

"Let us calm down, at least let us try to remember everything you told me. Including your adoration towards us and Justin," Felix said with a piercing look, This time he did not smile kindly as usual.

Felix stands followed by Devian, Raizel, and Ian. They also left from there. Seeing his friends leave, Rion stood up.

"Rion...You either?" Victor asked looking at Rion's sorrowful eyes.

A moment Rion stared back, A second later she turned her eyes to break eye contact with Victor. The look on his face was angry, and then Rion went after the others.

Victor let out a heavy sigh, Not expecting his members in the past to be this angry at him. Although they are members of Justin's recruits, but still it feels Victor is very sad.

Only Neil, Livian, and Rea remained there. The three of them stared in silence at the sad looking Victor.

Rea stood up and approached Victor who was still sitting on the spot. "Come with me, I'll treat the bruises first,"

"They must hate me so much now" said Victor Ogre, Not saying Rea's words.

"If we didn't really understand your relationship in the past, but I think what Felix said has a point, too. Reflect on your past mistakes, and try to apologize to them again" Neil suggested.

"For them to forgive you is not easy, especially if the mistakes you make are very big. But Neil's advice can be tried, so long as you don't repeat it again," added Livian pulled Victor's hand to sit the man on the sofa to treat Rea.

Victor simply nodded weakly with a blank look, Letting his bruised cheek be treated by Rea.
