Chapter 326. Ally Gone and Ally Gained

Madam Lin's smile turned wider. She looked genuinely happy despite her inevitable death.

Before she breathed her last, she said, "Go to your… old home... Take… care of her…"

Her hands fell. She was gone.

Amon wanted to feel relief. Relief because whatever emotional connection he had with her was finally over. He was free of her now. Yet, there was this strange pain inside him.

"Hm…?" He touched his cheek, which still felt warm because of Madam Lin's hands. There was a droplet of water.

'Tear…?' He thought. He couldn't remember when he ever cried. In his memory, he never did, not in this world or his past world. Even as a child still learning to survive in a war-torn country, he never once cried. He was having trouble understanding why he shed this one droplet of tears now.

"Hmph!" He squeezed the tear using his fingers. A sizzling sound was heard. The tear was gone.
