Chapter 347: Rendezvous Center

"So, you need to report back to this Osmanthus group?"

Iris asked the large man, having already brought Ren back down to sit next to her. 

Falling back onto his fear beside the azure-haired girl, Ren winced playfully as he marched Iris' gaze—watching the man who nodded in reply to the girl's question. 

"That's correct; it's important that I get this report to them as quickly as possible. I'm sorry, but that's the nature of the situation."

"No, it's alright. You helped us more than we could ask for, Augustus."

Ren gave his words with a smile to the tubby man who fell silently agasp. Tears built up at the corner of his quivering eyes before he let out an outburst of cries.

"Ah, such kindness! I truly do wish I could stay--I do!"

After crying enough to fill a river, the man was coaxed into settling down by the others before it was finally time for them to part ways.
