Chapter 2322
- The hospital room was, in an instant, shrouded in endless grief, rage, and guilt. The warmth of their long-awaited reunion was shattered completely by this succession of cruel truths, leaving only a blood-deep vendetta that had been pressed down through a hundred lifetimes, and an unending heartache for Skyweave.
- Howard stood where he was, eyes closed, tears sliding down without stopping as the air around him grew colder and more resolute. He slowly opened his eyes; the grief in them hardened into a hatred that could topple heaven and earth, and an unquestionable resolve. His voice was low and hoarse, yet every word landed like a weight of a thousand pounds: "Mystic Vale has lost all humanity—his crimes are unforgivable! No matter what it costs, we will save Skyweave and make him pay his blood debt!"
- Alfonso wiped the tears from the corner of his eye as well. In his cool gaze, only a steadfast killing intent and a determination to protect remained. He lifted his eyes, his look cold and solemn: "Skyweave's kindness is something I will never forget. Rescuing Skyweave and settling this blood feud is my duty without excuse. If our strength is lacking, then we cultivate in earnest—find Raiden, Benjamin, and Sebastian, gather every ounce of power. Even if it costs an entire lifetime, we will make Mystic Vale pay!"
