Kapitel 842: Luxury

*Thunk*

The pain ran through every single nerve in his body in the blink of an eye. He felt like some had stripped him naked, leaving him vulnerable, weak and afraid all at once.

All these primal emotions came up unexpectedly and caught him off guard.

They stirred up a memory from his childhood that had been buried deep within his psyche. It was pushed to the surface as a result of this sudden shift in his emotions.

His vision went dark and he found himself standing outside somewhere in the cold rain. Barefooted, he was all alone on a dark road crying his eyes out. His feet were bloody from all the running and he was out of breath but he still couldn't stop.

Something or someone was chasing him and although he didn't know who or what it was, he did clearly remember that it was very bad.

Suddenly, he felt someone grab him from behind. Shocked, he looked down and saw another small hand gripping his own.
