Ethan remembered each of the occasions where he had died, all the times that his body had hit the ground and the re-starts of each of them, the broken bones, the internal injuries.

All the injuries he had sustained, looking back on everything that had happened, his body had taken an enormous amount of damage.

Waking up from that terrible attack, he put his hands on the ground and got up with his mouth bleeding.

He spits on the ground to see Elena surprised that the man had withstood that attack. She looked at him with hatred.

Ethan cracked his neck and looked up. He saw how Chronna looked at him in pain and said, “Don’t get up, Chronna. I’ll take care of it.”

The girl wanted to protest, but something in her eyes reminded him of when he saved her twenty-five again.
