Chapitre 43: Reunion

In the midst of this heartfelt conversation at the bedside, the head butler's entrance heralded Sirium's arrival and the trio's reunion.

Bursting into the room with an urgency that spoke volumes of his concern and pent-up emotions, Sirium practically tackled them, wrapping Lassim and Lustria in a heartfelt embrace.

His eyes, shimmering and moist, conveyed the turmoil within as he uttered a choked apology for his perceived delay and helplessness during the crisis.

"I should have been faster, stronger," he stammered, his voice thick with emotion as he took in Lustria's appearance. Filled with resolve he uttered, "I won't let this happen again. I'll train relentlessly to sharpen my senses and be the fastest. If only I had noticed sooner and warned you, or had been able to block it by being faster, you wouldn't have all these scars."
