Truly Terrifying
Aria let go of her hold on the Cutler couple as soon as Rias finished dealing out the punishment, and Ava dashed over to her son while crying out his name, "RICK, MY SON!!! MY POOR CHILD!!!"
She kneeled beside him and hugged him, not caring about the blood staining her clothes or the fact that his body smelled like burned meat. Her priority was to console her son and give him comfort after suffering through such a horrific ordeal.
Soon, Nathan approached the two of them and looked down at Rick with a remorseful expression on his face before kneeling beside him as well, taking out a pill and feeding it to Rick, who swallowed it down without thinking twice.
As soon as the medicine entered his stomach, his screams of anguish came to an abrupt halt as his features relaxed, and he passed out, losing consciousness. This allowed him to avoid experiencing the unbearable pain any longer while also healing his wounds over time.
