Aldrian grabbed the swordsman's head, preventing him from collapsing from his kneeling position. The swordsman's robe was tattered, and his wounds were clearly visible. His face was also bloodied, with blood flowing from his nose, lips, forehead, and scalp.
With his powerful body, he should have possessed tremendous regenerative abilities that allowed his wounds to heal rapidly.
But within those wounds lingered remnants of death laws, corroding even the regenerative ability and resilient body of a god.
The swordmaster was still conscious, but one of his eyes was shut as blood flowed down from his forehead and over it.
His other eye remained open, staring at Aldrian with a trembling gaze. It was as though he still couldn't believe it, unable to accept that he had been defeated in the end.
