章 314: Seeing an old friend

Half an hour later---

"Salute His Excellency, We salute Robin Burton!" About 9,000 Saints got down on one knee and shouted in unison.

"Father!! Woaaa'.." Zara ran and fell into Robin's chest and started weeping bitterly, forgetting for an instant that she was the leader of hundreds of Saints in the Life Legion and a fierce fighter who had fought countless battles and taken countless lives.

"Take it easy, I'm here now..." Robin held her closer to him and gently stroked her hair with a slight smile. 

This was the first genuine smile that appeared on his face since he left for Nihari, for the first time in 21 years his smile was not fake, there were no pride or joy behind it, just love and a sense of relief...

Although Zara is now more than forty years old, in his eyes, she is still the same child he rescued from slavery when she was 8 years old.
