Chapter 17: The Hour of Truth

McCreery

After seeing Layla stabbed incessantly, I was terrified and although I wanted to go rescue her my body did not react, I could only stay and watch Layla gradually bleed to death in front of my eyes and Mario, although I tried to hide it I felt great remorse when I saw that brutal scene in front of us. From one moment to the next everything started to fade in front of me and I lost consciousness.

—You're finally awake, it would be a shame if you'd died after bringing you back down the portal —says the humanoid as he watches McCreery regain consciousness.

—I have to save Layla! —McCreery screams desperately.

—Layla's dead, plus you don't belong in that world, remember? —The humanoid says as he watches McCreery.

—But if they all died, how come I can do it? —McCreery asks confusedly.
