Chapter 704 The Butterfly Joins the Fire-Chasing Moth, Gift Box
Chapter 704 The Butterfly Joins the Fire-Chasing Moth, Gift Box
I only realized last night that "Moths Chasing Flames" was misspelled as "International Brigade" in the earlier chapters. It has been corrected. Sorry everyone.
Seeing Xia Die's expression, which was on the verge of tears, Tianhe not only did not let go of her right hand, but instead gripped it even tighter. Not only that, he also comforted her.
"Okay, if you really want to cry, you can do it now. There's no need to keep holding it in."
Hearing Tianhe say that, Xia Die finally couldn't hold back anymore, and tears welled up in her eyes. "I'm sorry, Lord Tianhe, may I hold you and cry for a while?"
"Yes, of course." Despite the intense gazes around him, Tianhe still chose to agree to the other party's request.
Although this might make him seem a bit of a jerk, I can't just leave him alone no matter what.
Besides, it's pretty good to increase Xia Die's favorability, but there's a high chance of a chaotic situation arising afterward... Oh well, let's ignore that for now.
Xia Die hugged Tianhe and cried for a while. Although Kaeslana felt a little uncomfortable seeing this, she knew why Xia Die was crying.
As the "Warrior Saintess" of Aidiria, the curse she carried made it difficult for her to interact with others like a normal person, causing her great suffering. Now, however, Xia Die had finally found a living person who was not afraid of her curse and could embrace her continuously. Therefore, Kaerslana said nothing.
Bai E and Xi Lian were unaware of Xia Die's true situation, but their discomfort was real.
However, seeing how heartbroken the other person was, they silently made a mental note of it, thinking they would find an opportunity to get it back from Tianhe in the future, and he would probably agree.
As for Crydella, she'd forgive the Hunter this time, considering the gift. Looking at Heather beside her, Crydella remembered the gift Tianhe had asked her to give to the other party; should she… take it out now?
Haise had been staring at Tianhe and Xiadie the whole time. Although she was a little annoyed, she didn't say anything, perhaps because she guessed why they were crying.
Soon, Hathaway turned to look at Krydella and found her hesitant to speak, as if she wanted to say something to her.
Hazel didn't keep her thoughts to herself; she asked, "Caesar, you seem to have something on your mind. Can you tell me about it?"
Seeing that Heather asked, Kerudela didn't hide anything, "Ahem, Lord Sword Banner, when you weren't here, Lord Hunter asked me to pass on a gift to you. I didn't expect you to come, so I can give you the gift now."
"Oh? What gift, Caesar? May I see it?"
Haiseyin seemed somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected Tianhe to give her a gift, not because she thought Tianhe was stingy. The fact that Tianhe came to Onfaros, helped them without expecting anything in return, and showed them the way clearly showed he wasn't that kind of person.
Haiseyin was surprised because she felt that she hadn't done anything for Lord Tianhe, but instead had received a lot of help from him. This time, she received a gift from him, which made Haiseyin feel flattered.
Krystal took Heather's gift out of the bracelet and handed it to her, "This is it, Lord Sword Banner, would you like to open it and take a look?"
Upon hearing this, Heather took the bag from Crydella's hand. "Alright, Caesar, let me see what's inside..."
Hazel skillfully opened the gift box; she really wanted to see what was inside.
Meanwhile, on the other side... Xia Die, who had been crying for a while, let go of Tianhe, and Tianhe also released his grip on Xia Die's hand. "Phew, Lord Tianhe, I feel much better, thank you."
"It's nothing, just a simple hug. By the way, Miss Xia Die, may I ask what exactly you and Ms. Heather came to the Fire Moth for?" Tianhe was curious about this.
Xia Die didn't shy away from the question. She didn't think Tianhe, who had such a pleasant conversation with that Caesar, was a simple person. Besides, this wasn't exactly a secret; she figured she could tell him.
"Well... I've heard that the Holy City bathed in the light of dawn holds hope for life. I'd like to have a chat with that Caesar and see if I, a saint from Aidiria, can join Ohma." As she spoke, Xia Die couldn't help but laugh at herself.
Following Xia Die's words, Tianhe continued, "In my opinion, Ohema would definitely welcome Miss Xia Die's arrival, and joining is naturally not a problem. Before that, Miss Xia Die, would you like to join our Fire-Chasing Moth?"
"Huh? The Moth of Fire? Can I join?" This wasn't the first time Xiaodie had heard the name of this organization. She had seen it in the sky before, and now she heard it from Jianqi Jue Haiseyin. This organization was obviously not simple.
"Yes, of course. First of all, you are a Golden Clan member, right?"
"Yes." Xia Die nodded, looking somewhat dazed.
"Secondly, you're also willing to participate in the journey to chase the fire, right?" Tianhe asked again.
“Yes, that’s right.” Xia Die didn’t deny it; she had come for Senatos after all.
"Then why not join our newly formed Moth of Fire, Miss Butterfly? Look, Caesar and Sword Banner Lord are also among us. There are also many Golden Bloods and citizens of Ohmmar who have joined us. Therefore, I would like to invite you to join us."
"Alright then, I'm willing to join the Fire Moth." After a moment's thought, Xia Die accepted Tianhe's invitation; she simply couldn't refuse.
Meanwhile, Xi Lian whispered to Bai E, "Look, Tianhe is trying to trick innocent girls into joining the Fire Chaser again, hehe."
"According to Xi Lian, aren't we also among those who were fooled?" Bai E couldn't help but mutter under his breath.
"Hehe, isn't it great? At least we have company. Besides, we'd like to be with each other."
“That’s true.” Bai E nodded.
And so, after Tianhe's persuasion (or rather, trickery), Xia Die smoothly became a member of the Fire-Chasing Moths. Congratulations! Now let's return to Krydela and Heather. Heather opened the gift box...
