Chapter 188 – Duty [1]
Asael stood there, his hands still gripping tightly the prison's bars, watching the disappearing back of Rose with his body shaking in rage.
In that moment, everything he wanted was to tear apart these damn bars and drown everything into his shadows… but he couldn't.
Despair and helplessness poured down on his heart as his hands released their tight grip, making him slowly slide down until his knees slammed on the rocky, blood-stained ground with a weak thud.
His head was lowered, as thoughts began to swirl inside his mind.
'I should have become a Grandmaster before coming…' Asael's thoughts were filled with self-blame.
He had been too hasty, too impulsive, and now he was paying the price for it. But Asael would not be worthy of Kaden's friendship if that was all he was capable of.
He wouldn't be worthy of his title, Prince of Shadows, if despair could overcome his will.
