Ron carried Xia Yue and the others, as well as Odeli, up into the sky in search of a safe place.
Odeli and Xia Yue were seated distinctly on opposite sides of each other on Ron's back.
Odeli watched Xia Yue and his companions with wary eyes, not understanding why Ron had come to find him, especially with them in tow.
As soon as Xia Yue saw Odeli, prompts from the System began to sound in his mind.
[Target character for the mission has appeared; please invite the target promptly, Host.]
[Target character for the mission is in danger; please provide assistance to remove the danger, Host.]
"Hello, may I ask who you all are?" Odeli asked gently, with a gentlemanly smile on his face, after some mental preparation and suppressing the toxins in his body.
If this were anywhere else, he would have perfectly resembled a noble young gentleman greeting them.
But, looking at his somewhat tattered robe and disheveled hair, Xia Yue felt there was a striking incongruence.
