Chapter 41

Snow fortress, main camp.

The King and Ben were in the middle of a conservation with Lord Mongke.

"I see. That boy will not survive after all huh? Not even with your skill?" Lord Mongke asked.

"Unfortunately no. A lot of time, the most important element to save a patient's life is the patient's will to stay alive. That boy, however, has lost all the lights in his eyes, even if I forcibly preserved his life, it would be meaningless, he will only end up like a living corpse." said Ben.

"Mmm... Just like Ben said. Sometimes, a serious mental damage can be deadlier than a headshot. The torture he experienced all this time has somewhat destroyed his mentality permanently that he would rather die than stay alive." said the King.

"Hah... What a poor boy... They almost thought they could save him." said Lord Mongke as he sighed.

"Yes. What a poor boy." said the King as a dash of anger can be seen flashed in his eyes for a second.
