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.d51d8ed4272fa58a

He felt dizzy. He had no idea 7a75d4c0bb how much blood he 871b4394f5 was losing.0f5c2542c58118b6

Ian felt like he 309bf63610 had been hit by 1227e9999d a car. The armored Holy Knight aa373c1e8e was horribly heavy. As it 70b758511a was, Keith 8da9444284 dropped his 13c2ce2b9f sword.9334636d44ebeb9f

Ian opened his 9c941321b3 eyes among the 184cd77663 bustling crowd. His body ached ebc37afc6b as if he 8b7e4b4bd3 had been sick 8928931852 for a long 838ff730fb time.

Ian felt 65e2f808d2 a strange c5c7508036 emotion. Had anyone ever e87d93ad54 worried about him f7f7e86926 this much when 5518bfacaa he was sick?
