章 325: Accepting, Shot Over My Shoulder

"Listen, I just want to thank you all for helping me out and getting this far," I said, but Perita spoke up, pushing some of her long red hair out of her face.

"I could hardly say that we have helped you. Since you have come, we have constantly placed our burdens on you. At first, you accepted to all of our surprises," Perita explained, and the other women nodded along.

"I, for one, have been one of the biggest thorns, but I am thankful for the person that you have turned out to be," Nixi said as she came walking down the stairs.

The women all started to voice my praise, and that was not what I had intended. Luckily, Clesh seemed to notice the uneasy look on my face and stood up, quieting down the others.

"I think what Zack meant was for the work we have been doing. We should all enjoy that, and most of us should be getting to bed. Tomorrow is our last day on this island, and we all have much left to do," Clesh told the women like she was the oldest among them.
