Mr. Crow's expression turned serious. He closed his eyes, focusing his senses, trying to trace the origin of the disturbance.
For a brief moment, everything went still.
Then suddenly... he coughed violently and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Mr. Crow!"
Lana's eyes widened in horror as she immediately reached out, her hands glowing faintly as she channeled her healing energy into him.
Unlike her own wounds, his injuries began to heal under her touch, the bleeding stopping as his condition stabilized.
But as he tried to focus again, Lana quickly grabbed his arm, shaking her head.
"Don't! You don't have to push yourself!"
Mr. Crow opened his eyes slowly, his gaze heavy as he looked at her.
"Someone… has linked their soul and body to yours," he said gravely.
Lana froze.
"If this connection isn't severed… you will continue to suffer like this for the rest of your life."
Her breath hitched.
