Kapitel 232: 225 Fate Lock and Bond (3)

"What!?" Maya asked, her voice confused and alarmed. "Why do you need my blood?"

"Come down, sister, I'm not asking for your hand in marriage," Gale said, trying to play it off cool.

"My reaction would have been a lot less dramatic if you really asked for my hand in marriage," Maya snorted.

"It's only blood," Gale said again.

"It's not only blood," Maya told him, her expression serious. "Why do you need my blood, anyway?"

"It isn't your blood per se," Gale said with a sigh. "It'll be fine as long as it comes from Celestial Radiance."

"Still, that doesn't explain my concern." Maya narrowed her eyes. "You won't get much benefit from refining the blood as well with your Gold rank. Well, it can help with your healing, is that why you need my blood?"

"That and more," Gale said. "I can't explain everything to you in the state I'm in, but I promise it will be tremendously beneficial for me."

Maya still wasn't convinced. She was torn between listening to him or cutting him off.
