The world seemed to be fading before her eyes.
Ariana couldn't move; if she did, she would lose consciousness, and that would be the end.
There was no turning back if she fainted now.
She has lost too much blood, and a gaping hole has been blasted through her stomach. She could no longer feel the pain, as she remained motionlessly sprawled on the grass and waiting for death to claim her.
'Those cries...' Hearing the Acolytes cry provided relief to her heart. At least, her enemies have received a dog's death, and the students were safe.
'Adrian fulfilled his promise...' Excluding Elana, who volunteered to help her, the other students were safe. And an ambush on this stage, incurring only one loss, was a great achievement.
Ariana has a few regrets about leaving the world soon, but she knew that in her absence, there were people who would take care of the Academy and continue the legacy.
Her father would be sad...but well, he has a son to comfort him, so it would be all right.
