Chapter 162 The Heart Was Crying
Orion’s lips parted:
No sound came out.
Then the medical pod beside them screamed with an alarm. –
Anya, who had been using psychic power to stabilize Laurie Rick, went white.
“General, Colonel Rick’s psychic sea is collapsing faster. He… he can’t hold on…”
The cockpit tightened at once.
The already heavy air dropped straight to freezing.
“Bring the equipment over! Start emergency rescue!”
A doctor shouted.
“No time. There’s no time. The collapse is moving too fast. I… I can’t hold it…”
Anya’s pretty face crumpled.
His eyes reddened, and by the end of the sentence, he was crying.
It was his fault.
His skill was not enough.
His psychic level was not enough.
He could only move around the outer layer of the colonel’s psychic sea, which was why he had misjudged it and said they still had five days.
If he had realized sooner that the inside had already begur collapsing, maybe they could have called another healer in time.
No one could comfort Anya.
He knew that too.
So his Daisy bloomed again.
To keep this hero alive, he seemed ready to drain his own psychic sea.
“Jelena?”
Orion stood before the pod.
The officer temporarily replacing Rowan Hale as Orion’s aide answered immediately.

Heart Was Crying
The Filth Legion replied. Healer Jelena has already started her attempt to break through to S-class. They can’t confirm how long it will take or whether it will succeed.”
Before Orion could ask, the officer continued. The Fourth Legion’s Healer Lily Snow can’t be transferred either. Commander Adrian Whitmore is in bad condition, and the other injured senior officers from the Fourth Legion are also…”
He could barely say it.
Everyone understood.
It was not that the Fourth and Fifth Legions refused to help.
Too many Alphas were injured.
They needed to save Colonel Rick.
Other legions had officers they needed to save too.
“Understood.”
Orion’s breath sank.
He knew how battlefields worked.
Life and death were never fair.
Everyone was flesh and blood.
Anyone could die in the next second.
Anyone could be crushed to bone and blood.
Even him.
But knowing that did not make losing a brother easy.
Caleb, who had cried like a child, could not accept it.
Anya could not accept it.
And Orion, who looked calm, could not either.
He simply could not cry.
Could not flinch.
Could not panic.
Could not fall.
If he fell, everyone’s hearts would scatter.

Was Cry
Someone had to remain and clean up the aftermath.
If he was alive, then he would be the one to send his brothers on their last journey,
He was here.
He had always been here.
‘Orion, you’re crying.
In the flashing light of Anya and the doctors fighting to save Laurie, amid the noise, the sobbing, the prayers, and the strained breathing, Julian’s voice sounded clear and calma.
Calm like an immortal standing outside the dust of the world.
Orion wanted to say he was not crying.
But Julian had stepped in front of him.
The boy raised a hand and tapped his chest lightly.
“Your heart is crying.”
A fierce ache flooded him.
Even the strongest person had a weak point.
When Orion’s cold fingers were taken by a warm hand, when he saw the faint worry in the boy’s eyes, he suddenly felt as if he had found a place to return to.
The boy said, “Can I try? I’m a mediocre doctor, and healing is absolutely my weakest area, but you won’t find anyone else in time. Colonel Rick can’t wait…”
Orion pulled Julian into his arms.
His face sank into the boy’s neck.
Just for this moment.
Only this moment.
He allowed himself to set everything down.
Allowed himself to be human.
Allowed himself to be weak.
He heard himself say, “Julian, save him. If you can… please save him.”
Julian paused.
