章 1092: Broken

With a face devoid of any emotions, Liam waited for the draconian princess to recover. Despite administering four healing potions, the effect seemed minimal at best. She continued to groan, a sign that she was still alive, but there was no indication that she would awaken anytime soon.

A heavy sigh escaped Liam's lips. He suspected that she was somehow responsible for bringing him to this place, although he felt neither happiness nor gratitude towards her.

Seating himself beside her, memories from both his lifetimes flooded his mind, each one causing him a piercing ache. 

The realization that, despite all his efforts, he had still failed stung like an open wound. In his desperate pursuit to alter his fate and that of his sister, he had even neglected to spend meaningful time with her during his second chance. 

He had toiled tirelessly, only to lose everything once again.
