Eric gritted his teeth as he drew a sharp intake of breath. The veins on his neck popped while his eyes turned even more bloodshot.

Atlas stared at his master’s wound, which looked like a burn wound. The redness of the wound had faded significantly, but it had not fully faded yet.

“Master, why don’t we get Master Nash to look at your wound?”

“No… It’s alright!”

Eric was in so much pain that he began shuddering.
