Chương 268: Interlude

A few miles from where the battle between Serac and Atheon took place lay a small island, a lone sanctuary amidst the turbulent waters of the raging sea. Here, Serac had taken refuge after being gravely injured. His throat was partially crushed, and a hole had been punched through his stomach.
