Chapter 718 The Rescue of the Child

Steven watched Robin's figure standing in the sunlight, his mind drifting back in time.

The young man's silhouette reminded him so much of someone from over 20 years ago-the legendary warrior from Draconia's military!

That figure had been his idol, the one he looked up to more than anyone else.

He had been the Dragon Lord-someone Steven had always admired.

At that moment, Steven found himself truly seeing Robin for the first time.

His face, his gestures, his way of speaking and acting-ll of it mirrored the God of War of Draconia's military forces,

For a long time, Steven stood there, rooted to the spot, trying to shake the odd sense of recognition.

He turned to look back at Robin, who was walking toward the pavilion, and wondered to himself why he felt this connection.

Could it be that after all these years of being bedridden, my mind is stuck in a loop, haunted by memories / can't escape?

The tragedy of Dragon Manor from that fateful night still haunted him, its shock and sorrow never fully fading.

Could it be that his grief from that catastrophic event two decades ago was making him project his memories onto this young man?

But Robin was just a young, skilled officer in his twenties.

Sure, Robin had saved his life, but it shouldn't make him see this man as the legendary Lord Dragon, right?

Robin turned to glance back at Steven, who was still lost in thought under the sun.

"Mr. Steven, what's on your mind? Come inside, and I'll give you treatment, Robin called out, his voice calm.

"You've been bedridden for over a decade. Your health is in serious decline. If we don't clear your blocked meridians soon, you might not make it much longer."

Steven froze, realizing that his deep thoughts had wasted Robin's precious time! He was the one who had saved him, after all!

Snapping out of his thoughts, Steven quickly nodded. Oh, yes... These past years, I've been lying in bed, unconscious. It's made me a little sluggish.

"Mr. Ramsey, luckily, you managed to help me with some needle therapy before, and I did feel some improvement, But I'm worried that...."

Robin gave a nod of understanding. "I fear that in just two hours, your body may no longer be able to withstand the strain.
