Chapter 1011 - Chapter 126: A Stronger Enemy

The knight girl was very aware that, from any perspective, the past deeds of her best friend and partner were equally admirable. Although most of the participants from back then had not sacrificed their lives, every one of them had charged into Death's Gate with the resolution to die. After a direct confrontation with the remnants of Danacus, it was almost as if they had already died once. Moreover, the pain Pannis endured was probably not any less than death itself. The girl remembered the first time she saw Pannis—filthy, numb, desperate, despondent—like a heap of rotting, stinking mud. It was hard to imagine what kind of heavy blow it would take to make someone who had once been nearly perfect end up in such a state. What on earth had happened back then? Why did none of the survivors know? For a moment, the knight girl felt that she had been infected by Lina's curiosity, becoming as curious as her.
