Inside Rhett’s room, Anna’s emotions were impossible to hide as she looked at Emmanuel.

“How’s Rhett doing now?” Emmanuel asked, his expression turning grave.

With his medical skills and eyesight, he could assess Rhett’s physical condition at a glance, but mental states were much harder to discern. Besides, he wanted to talk to Anna–he could tell she had a lot on her mind.

“Commander, Rhett risked his life to save the Saintess and cover our retreat from the Five Poison Sect’s stronghold. He forcefully activated the Gates of Life and Death while already gravely injured… He might already be dead,” Anna said through clenched teeth. Even as someone who had walked through a world of blood and death, she couldn’t stop the tears from falling.

Emmanuel nodded, his expression heavy. He sat down to examine Rhett while asking, “What about the rest of the Ophanim Clan?”

He knew that while the Ophanim Clan had once been known for their volatile tempers and dark reputations, they were fiercely loyal. It didn’t make sense that only Anna was by Rhett’s side right now.

“They’re all dead…”

Anna’s tears flowed even harder, but she didn’t sob. She simply clenched her fists tightly, her knuckles turning white.

“I see…” Emmanuel’s sorrow deepened.

Anna nodded. “Falcon fought to his last breath against the Toad King to buy us time to escape. Dead and Mad led the charge in battle… they ended up poisoned and didn’t make it.”

Emmanuel exhaled a long, weary sigh. He had never expected the Ophanim Clan members to sacrifice themselves for his mission.

“They will always be my brothers–in–arm. And they will forever be honored as members of the Wolf Warrior Unit. No one will ever forget them.”

Anna smiled through her tears, her voice hoarse as she said, “They probably never thought they’d die for someone else or that people would actually remember them after they were gone… At least they died with honor.”

A faint smile ghosted over Emmanuel’s lips, though the grief still weighed heavily on his chest.
