Chương 397: Another Agreement with the Princess of the Garden

Observing her patient anticipation, with a scrutinizing gaze fixed upon him, Orion took a deep breath and revealed, "I consumed the vines."

The moment those words escaped his lips, Orion witnessed her eyes expand in surprise, then shift to shock, before settling into trembling fear.

If it weren't for the fact that he was currently resting his head on her thighs, he suspected she might have risen and slowly backed away from him.

Repeatedly swallowing her saliva, the Princess of the Garden felt her body, especially her arms, quiver involuntarily as she peered down at Orion and asked, "You... You consumed the Vylkr vines in order to... to absorb their vicious, chaotic energy into your body?"

Orion nodded in agreement, exhaling deeply as he noticed her expression freezing, unsure of how to convey her conflicting emotions.
