Chapter 5: The Sanctis Awakened Association
The soft sunlight passed through the tall hospital windows, casting patches of light on the stone floor of the lobby. At the building's exit, Liana stood still.
Her gaze was fixed on her son's face—a look full of worry, yet without any unnecessary words.
Though this wasn't what she wanted, she knew she couldn't say anything. Supporting her children's decisions was the best way.
"Are you sure you should be discharged today?" Her voice was calm, but a hidden tremble could be felt.
"We could still stay another day." The doctor had told them that Daniel's body had fully recovered and there was no issue—he could be discharged today if they wanted.
Daniel, wearing a plain shirt with his hair still slightly messy, shrugged and smiled—a smile that hid exhaustion more than it showed confidence.
"I'm a priest, Mom... I can heal myself. Did you forget?"
Well, in reality, as a priest, he had no healing skills at all. He only had two abilities, and both were somewhat deadly.
Even he couldn't understand—what kind of priest class was this?
Liana ran her fingers through his hair, her eyes shifting between Daniel's face and the faint scar on his neck. Gently, she smoothed his hair.
"Priest or not... you're still a kid." Her words made a smile appear on Daniel's face.
