Chương 179: The Void Within Their Hearts

Cassius fluttered his eyes as he jolted awake, looking around to find himself on the ground among the wounded villagers.

Many of them were busy helping each other with bandages and other makeshift medical supplies.

Above him was a beautiful, ruined building filled with glowing flowers and plants that cascaded through the gaps in the walls and ceiling.

The stars and moon shone through the holes, casting a fascinating, otherworldly light on the scene.

He was in a delirious state, confused about where he was and how he had ended up there. He clutched his head in pain, trying to make sense of the blurry memories.

Everything started to clear when he heard his daughter crying nearby. Her back was to him, her body trembling.

He reached out and touched her back gently. "What happened, Seren?"

Seren, surprised, turned to her father. "Dad, you're awake?!" She hugged him tightly.
