Chapter 1963: At Long Last

WHOOSH!

The world around Rui shifted in the blink of an eye.

One moment, he was in the Mellow.

The very next?

He found himself standing before the shores of a beach.

The softest of smiles cracked at the edge of his mouth as he spotted Kane standing at some distance before him.

Yet, Kane faced someone else.

He had bronze skin and was wearing an attire that resembled a fusion of an adventurer's garb and medical clothing. An umpteen number of instruments, artifacts, and tools adorned it from top to bottom, no doubt able to be of aid in nearly every circumstance conceivable.

The Divine Doctor himself.

Not in a memory, not in a prophecy, but in the flesh.

His eyes, devoid of any compassion, shifted away from Kane and turned to Rui slowly.

Curiosity flickered within their hollow depths as he beheld Rui.

"Interesting."

Kane frowned, turning to follow his gaze.
