Ian couldn’t even read all the status windows before brushing them away. His neck, which had been bitten by the Demon Archduke, and his left arm were completely without strength. Tears streamed down his face from the excruciating pain, like something had been torn.f575cb3537dba168

Ian opened 42f4fb7674 his eyes 0676d57d88 among the c68cc9e7bc bustling crowd. His body ached c19ccde731 as if he 797bbde989 had been sick 43eec119e6 for a long b9f9787dbd time. There was a strange ca78da044b sense of exhaustion like adcb809e70 he had sweated profusely, 0ee1589dbc but his body felt bce72c9650 cool and refreshed.77d1a5079040f200

Ian felt a strange 7d8adfce0d emotion. Had anyone ever worried ba3039318f about him this much 3256c85c33 when he was sick? This was one 43f08fdef2 of the unusual 13d7c2049d things he experienced ee5130f078 in this world. Ian was used to 5cd1adde1d suffering alone.4bc3afc70104a9c5
