บท 63: Chapter 37 Volcano Temple

"Clack~" Xi Mu tossed a piece of wood into the fire, the flickering flames casting shadows that merged his and Letixia's together.

The heavy rain outside had stopped.

"I'm sorry for making you worry," Letixia turned to look at the silver-clad Knight seated beside her, the firelight reflected on his face giving a sense of reliable comfort.

Xi Mu shook his head, his voice steady and gentle, "Considering you only now broke into tears, you've been incredibly strong."

He was speaking the truth. Anyone who went through what Letixia had would likely feel a strong urge to cry, especially after the recent loss of her father and having to raise her hand against her own sister.

Her family and life as she knew it had crumbled completely that day.

It would be difficult for anyone to keep it together.

To him, Letixia's tears were a good sign, indicating that her defenses were down at this moment.
