Let’s rewind the ti a bit, back to when Fisher and Tangze Asuka were still in the tower, and turn our focus to the treehouse that Chun had just built for them. On the balcony facing the distant stone tower, Hooked kiss was watching the golden light flickering in the tower with a slight squint.
From the room behind, Helair erged, rubbing her eyes. Since Fisher left, she seed sowhat bored, even walking sluggishly.
"Is that the power of the Destiny Loom?"
Hooked kiss vaguely sensed the dangerous power within that golden light and spoke up. Behind him, Helair also walked over to the windowsill, maintaining a slight distance from Hooked kiss with a cheerful smile.
But she only glanced at the tower once and withdrew her gaze uninterestingly, not giving any comnt, even yawning.
After a long silence, Hooked kiss finally withdrew his gaze, and with it, the gentle expression he always wore faded slightly, shadowed with a faint gloom.
He glanced at Helair beside him, who seed distracted, doing sothing mindless, hesitated for a mont, but still spoke up,
"Did Sariel Angel give you my reward?"
Helair’s blue-golden pupils regained so focus, she looked at Hooked kiss with a smile and asked,
"I almost forgot that Lord Sariel had already given your reward. You didn’t ntion it in front of her, but later you expect to deliver your reward in private as your labor... Why, you don’t want anyone to know your real purpose for going to the Holy Land, especially Fisher?"
Hooked kiss’s half face was covered in shadow, he did not respond to Helair’s inquiry, instead, he said,
"I have my reasons, as long as there’s no malice towards him, whether to speak or not doesn’t matter, does it? So, where’s my reward?"
"Then let’s thank Lord Sariel for the ability to see through desires."
Helair smiled as if performing a magic trick, took out a folded luminescence from her hands, and as she flicked her wrist, the paper slowly flew towards Hooked kiss.
After Hooked kiss received it, he squinted at the magical material glowing with divine light. As he opened it, the luminescence gradually dimd, revealing rows of readable angelic characters.
Fortunately, Hooked kiss didn’t need to understand angelic script to read it.
An address was written: Dragon Continent, Dragon Tail Island, South Shore at Kakafu’s Snake People settlent.
Hooked kiss’s expression didn’t change much, but beside him, Helair added a comnt,
"Lord Sariel said this is your reward for providing the intelligence about the World Tree Tear. You can’t act further in the Holy Land, otherwise it will disrupt her plans. You can find him there. But you know, angels are mythical species, and you’re just a doctor. If you can’t handle it, you’ll need to wait until bringing back the World Tree Tear to claim another reward... but I strongly advise against doing that."
Hooked kiss glanced at Helair, who was still looking into the distance, didn’t ask why, but paused before slowly letting go of the luminescence.
As his fingers left the light, it seed to lose substance, gradually dissipating on the spot,
"I’ll go alone, I’m ready to leave for that place now."
"Don’t rush, don’t rush..."
As Helair spoke, she suddenly seed to spot sothing interesting, her face’s boredom gradually disappeared, and the next mont she directly leapt over the railing, running away to the distance,
"Wait here for a bit, I’m going to catch them, and ask the Necolia behind you and the other transferee resting in the room if they’re going or not. I’ll be back soon!"
Catch them?
Behind?
Watching Helair run farther, Hooked kiss couldn’t quite comprehend, he turned his head, only to suddenly notice a Phoenix species, Necolia, sitting like a sculpture in the corner of the living room.
She seed to have listened to the entire conversation between Hooked kiss and Helair just now, hence unsure whether she should speak at this mont, she blinked at Hooked kiss with a blank expression, an innocent look on her face.
"You.. when did you get here?"
Necolia looked at Hooked kiss at this mont, although her face bore no expression, she blinked.
The room’s atmosphere fell silent for a few seconds, facing Hooked kiss’s questioning gaze, Necolia’s eyeballs lifted slightly, her whole body remained still and silent like a sculpture, as if proving she hadn’t heard anything just now.
"..."
...
...
Ti and focus slowly return to the edge of the Ideal Country. After Fisher "naturally" spoke those shocking words, Chun was temporarily indecisive and sent a small flower flying towards the distant towering stone tower, wanting to consult Margaret’s opinion.
Fisher remained calm beside him, standing with the smiling "Cain", waiting for the decision over there. Besides so visible intimacy, they also tackled so serious matters, like exploring the specific thod to enter the Mythical Rank.
