He Became the Only Ally of the Abandoned Warrior

Lavyn felt as if her heart were being torn apart.

The images shown by Elixir, embodying Lin, had left the thief deeply shaken.

Some of the events she had witnessed firsthand.

They were things she had observed while tracking Lin's movements shortly after settling in Valter Croix.

Other incidents were details she had investigated through guild members, who reported back to her.

Even that had been enough to enrage her.

She wanted to bring him back immediately.

As she crumpled the report, her nails dug into her palms, but she held herself back.

Lin, who had always put others before himself and bent over backwards for them, had, for the first time, insisted there was something he had to do.

He had been so firm in rejecting her invitation to come with her that she believed he must have a plan.

If it was Lin, surely he had a plan.

After all, he was the same Lin who turned the idiot Linasien into his rival and completed his mission.

If it was Lin, he could definitely pull it off.

A plan… What a joke.

He was merely enduring the pain, solid as a rock.

But that pain was like the venom seeping from a viper’s fangs.@@novelbin@@

The venom dripping onto that rock seeped into every crack, rotting it from within.

‘What kind of torment have you gone through? What pain has turned you so numb?’

She shouldn’t have said those words when they finally reunited in Valter Croix.

Although his face, body, and voice were still Lin’s, his eyes were empty and hollow, leading her to blurt out those words in disappointment and concern.

‘You look like a doll now.’
