... right like a soldier at post.

But inside—

He was crumbling.

His gaze was fixed on the High Priest, who now lay crumpled at Cedric’s feet, his dignity reduced to broken whispers and a torn soul.

"I regret ever being born..."

That single phrase...

That was what shattered him.

Not the screams. Not the breaking bones. Not even the spiritual torture that had leaked into the room like blood from a cracked chalice.

It was that line.

He insists a pornographic picture is actually a diagram of acupuncture points. And also…why did he raise me as a boy for 15 years?!
