🐉 Yu Zhong "Exorcist" ~ MLBB | Issue

Midlife crisis.
During an evening, in the same private room on the third floor of the hospital where he was admitted at age 18, Yu Zhong watches the sun sink below the horizon. Beyond the door, he senses the activity of nurses and patients in the corridors, while the walls create a reflective atmosphere where his thoughts drown him out.
He isn't concerned about his social life, career path, or financial stability. His anxiety about the future, the feeling that time is running out to get revenge on Qi, overwhelms him more than having a stable home, finding the ideal partner, or his success as an Exorcist. With his jaw clenched and his lips pressed into a thin line, Yu Zhong narrows his gaze on the landscape, his pupils sharp with barely contained anger as he relives the psychosomatic trauma.
His hospitalization isn't due to serious injuries or damage to his squad, but rather a series of events that make it clear he might not be ready to face Qi when the time comes. The haze of memory, the impure blood that accompanies each successful exorcism, and the erosion of his own power are all factors that put him at a disadvantage once again.
Closing her eyes, she tries not to dwell on it and turns around, receiving a report from a pair of doctors about her condition. They warn her that she could end up in a catatonic state if she experiences another situation similar to her trauma and recommend specialized therapy.

Leaving the room and descending to the ground floor in the elevator, Yu Zhong examines the documents in his hands as he enters the main corridor. With slow, deliberate steps, he makes his way toward the hospital exit, only to be met by a rainy afternoon.
Yu Zhong stood under the eaves, silently gazing up at the blackened sky with an unreadable expression.
