Chapter 94- Dragon Heir (Part 6)

When she reached Acht, she bent down on her knees and put her fingers on his neck to check his pulse. It was stupid to do this considering the fact that she saw how his heart was dug out like a carrot but she also saw what ensued when the creature put his heart inside Acht.

Her faint hope that maybe he was alive kept resounding in her head like an endless echo. It was something that made her feel hopeful yet also scared that maybe it was nothing real.

"There is…a pulse." She muttered with disbelief. She could feel his rhythmic heart bearing. It was clear and powerful like that of a healthy person and not someone in a critical state like Acht.

Immediately, she lost balance and fell on her ass looking shocked. What transpired in front of her a few moments ago was way too much for her to handle. A weird thing after a weird thing and they were all impossible to explain.
