章節 174: Let's be friends

"It's okay here. I can find my way." Salma stopped walking, making Celeste stop too.

After spending the entire morning and afternoon at Silver Lake, the duo returned to dragon valley for a late lunch, before Salma decided it was time for her to return home.

Celeste followed her, with the intention of walking her halfway, but just as they got to the border, Salma stopped and decided she could continue alone from there.

"Huh? We are still in dragon valley. Why should I leave you here?" 

"Because it's getting late and it's not safe out there. I want to be sure the future leader of dragon valley is safe." Salma gave her reason.

A lighthearted chuckle escaped Celeste's lips. "I can protect myself, Salma."

"I know that. It still doesn't change a thing."

"So what about you? How is it safe for you when it's not safe for me?"
