"Bear with me, Master," she said as she slowly pulled the rod from his chest, making Devin groan as he felt immense pain with every inch she pulled.
"Nnngh... Argh!!"
"Devin!" Angeal rushed to his side, then held his hand. "You can do it. Be strong," she encouraged, tears in her eyes starting to form.
