Bab 377: It is over

Cygnus badly wanted to refute his mother's words but he could already hear the enemy coming their way. The guards must have died too. He raised his head and nodded at his mother who gave her a smile. Cygnus picked up his unconscious sister and carried her in his arms.

He gritted his teeth as he left. The urge to look back was eating at him but he steeled his heart and continued to walk forward. There was no time for him to be crying or wiping his tears. He needed to find a safe place for him and his sister. They needed to survive. They needed to live.

"Stop right there!" A man's voice shouted from behind them but Cygnus did not stop.

He continued to walk forward despite the pain in his side and on his legs that was injured from the explosion. He was limping with only one thought in his mind, to save his little sister and leave that place. The voice became harsher as something hit him on the back but he managed to maintain his balance.
