Yuzuro's worried gaze remained fixed on Xin's back. Even though she couldn't see his face, she could sense the palpable aura of sadness surrounding him.
"He must be so devastated about what happened with him and Meilyn," Yuzuro thought to herself.
"Of course he is!" She mentally facepalmed. Their story was known to everyone in their circle. They had been childhood friends turned lovers for years, but an unfortunate accident had altered the course of their relationship.
Meilyn had moved on swiftly, finding a caring boyfriend, joining a prominent guild, and becoming a vital member as one of its core healers.
She had even excelled in her studies, working toward becoming a doctor. Life seemed to be showering her with blessings.
Meanwhile, Xin had only recently awakened to this reality, and the contrast must have been a bitter pill to swallow.
