The Medallion novel Chapter 1054

"No. She just asked me to head over to the Ji Mansion to assist you and ruin Alston's plan first. As for the rest, we'll have to wait and see. I want to see Isis immediately. The baby will be born soon, right?" Rocky shook his head. He continued explaining that for the past six months, what he missed the most was Isis and the baby she carried in her belly. The baby would arrive soon and he didn't want to miss a single moment.

"How time flies! You'll be a father soon," Sabina said cheerfully, although her eyes seemed to say otherwise.

Rocky smiled in return. After making some preparations, the two of them left the Ji Mansion and rushed to the Gehenna Border together.

One day later, Rocky and Sabina finally arrived at Evian City via the Gehenna Border. Since Rocky wasn't allowed to immediately head to the Crimson Dragon Group's base camp, he requested Sabina for a special arrangement so that he'd have a chance to see Isis and the baby.

However, fifteen minutes later, Sabina came back in a hurry. Without mincing any words, she pulled Rocky aside and said, "Come with me."

"What's happening? Is it Isis?" Rocky asked with a frown.

"She's had difficulty with the labor since last night. It appears she's dying!" Sabina replied quickly.

Rocky's body trembled at her words.

Before Sabina could react, Rocky had already disappeared.

He arrived at the base camp as quickly as he could and went straight to the Isis Pavilion. Once he arrived at the door, he heard a heart-wrenching scream filled with pain come from upstairs.

Rocky jumped and flew up the stairs. As he landed on the ground, he saw behind the curtain a very busy midwife whose forehead was shiny with sweat. She was assisted by maids who were occupied with fetching hot water into the delivery room. The rags they brought out were soaked in blood and turned the water crimson.

Outside the curtain, a delicate figure paced back and forth anxiously.

"Marin…" Rocky called out as he walked towards her.

Once Marin turned towards whoever was calling her, she was met with a tall figure heading her way. At first, she was stunned. Once she saw the person's face, she was shocked and wanted to call out.

"Get them out of here." Rocky ordered into Marin's ear as he strode forward and covered her mouth.

Marin, of course, found it hard to believe that it was Rocky (who had previously died) who appeared before her. But his familiar face and breath erased all of her doubts and she knew it was him. Although she didn't know why he asked them all to leave, she immediately nodded in agreement.

Once Rocky let go of Marin and retreated into a corner, she went into the room and said to the midwife and the maids, "You may leave now. Your services are no longer needed."

Initially stunned by her order, the midwife and maids followed Marin's order and headed downstairs.

Once they all left, Rocky walked to Isis' side. She was clearly in great pain. Her lips were pale; her consciousness began to falter, and she was covered in sweat. Her hand firmly clutched the quilt that was stained with fresh blood. She was fragile and weak.
