My brother and I were on the roads again. But it was without our motorcycles this time. The memory of arriving in Anchorage seemed so far away— it almost belonged to a different lifetime.
A fake one.
Joshua was right. I did adapt.
The world that was filled with monsters was the real world now. I was once a king there, but now, I was going to Washington as Liam Johnson.
I had to take this one step at a time. But contacting Joshua somehow might be the best option for me.
Yeah, Joshua was my only option.
Now that I would probably live for a few more weeks. I needed to make sure that my army carried on with its duties. I planned on turning them into a peacekeeping force. They pledged their life to me after all. Even if I was no longer there, I knew they'd stay true to the blood oath.
The idea that my protection can continue reaching the monsters I cared about even after I was gone gave me the much-needed motivation to run for my life as Li had put it.
