Capítulo 394: 58.8 Reassessment

Without the blood obscuring the rest of the organ, the absolute wreck that was her heart muscle was now fully clear for all of it to see. And based on what I could see without having to move it with my hand, I guess the visible parts of it were the only parts that still actually looked like they belonged to a heart.
