[It's something he hadn't planned on telling her yet. He'd wanted to break it to her gently when he was sure she was ready to hear it, not like this. Not in the heat of an argument over who was the worse person of the two of them. But it's the only thing he can think of to retaliate with, to prove that he doesn't get a happy ending just for having more fight (she thinks) than she does.]
I accomplish my goal and die in the process. My stepfather's "evolution" was bested by a single boy with the ability to reach in and draw out peoples' hearts. All of that effort and years of research was rendered meaningless in less than ten minutes.
In the end, I wasn't the one who won the fight. It was Shu.
