Bab 241: Chapter 241 - Extending a Helping Hand [2/5]  

"Help?!"

Hmm?

What's going on here?

Upon hearing the child's cry, Yumo's eyebrows furrowed involuntarily. As she caught sight of the young boy with blood streaming from his shoulder, with tattered clothes, while his pleading hazel eyes met hers, Yumo's azure eyes suddenly contracted.

Although Yumo had made a decision to mind her own business when she left home, she couldn't just ignore the injured child. In the next moment, she propelled herself forward, causing the ceramic floor tiles to crack. Yumo transformed into a black figure and appeared right beside the white-haired young boy.

Under the envious gazes of many members of the Black Rose family behind her, Yumo reached out and held the swaying boy, pulling him into her embrace. Sensing his trembling body and the overwhelming fear that surrounded him, Yumo spoke softly to comfort him.

"It's alright, don't be afraid..."
