Chapter 92: How Hard Is It To Apologize?!
Creed turned around, a small but genuine smile tugging at his lips. He had already recognized the voice, but seeing her in person still brought a warm flicker of surprise.
Sure enough, walking towards him with a bright, cheerful expression was Layla—a beautiful blue-haired girl with equally striking blue eyes, standing at about fifteen years old.
She was dressed simply, yet the high-quality fabric of her outfit made it clear that she came from a wealthy and powerful family.
Her hair, long and silky, swayed as she moved, and her delicate features held an excited glow as she approached him.
Creed’s smile widened as he watched her, a strange sense of familiarity settling in his chest.
Their relationship was something that could only be described as fate. It was one of those rare bonds that felt like destiny had gone out of its way to connect them, as if some invisible force had tied their lives together.
The first time they had met, it had been nothing special—just another passing moment at the start of his journey.
He had saved her life outside the Tier 5 Moon Lake Bastion, and at the time, he hadn’t thought much of it.
In fact, if anything, he had been a little disappointed because he had been hoping for a reward, only to find out that she didn’t have a single coin on her!
But life had a strange sense of humor.
Because not long after, during the Beast Tide, when Creed had been seconds away from death—abandoned, wounded, and completely out of options—it was Layla who had saved his life.
