บท 569: Crappy Loot

After relaxing, the party pulled themselves back up before making their way toward the treasure chest. But before reaching it, Astaroth stopped and pivoted toward Jaxx.

"Before we divvy out the rewards, I have a bone to pick with you."

Before Astaroth could keep going, Jaxx dropped to one knee, bending his head toward the floor.

"Sir. I know I was less than ideal as an ally until now. I know I made questionable decisions and acted out of line more than once.

"I will take any consequence on myself with dignity and leave the guild without a fuss if that is your wish. But please. Let my sister stay.

"She deserves to be a part of this strong guild you are building. Jeanne is an exceptional player, and a formidable healer and asset. Kicking her out because of my actions would be a great mistake.

"I implore you, let her stay amongst Paragons!"

And with his last phrase, Jaxx slammed his fist into his chest, right over his heart.
