Chapter 173: Arriving at the Barbarian Tribe
“R-Right…” Nyzzara replied, flinching at his tone. “You somehow managed to clear the dungeon? I don’t even know what to say… it’s impressive—”
“In the bullshit package, there just so happens to be flattery,” Rael said, cutting her off and narrowing his eyes. “Just lead us there, let me do what I came here to do, and we’ll be on our way.”
Nyzzara’s brows furrowed, but instead of responding, she simply jumped back on her dire wolf and began leading the way.
In the meantime, Rael focused on the beauty in his arms, who, after a lot of tossing and turning, finally began opening her eyes.
She seemed a little dazed for a few moments, but as her eyes met his, she suddenly looked away, her face flushing red in an instant.
“You should’ve told me sooner…” she muttered before suddenly wrapping her arms around his neck and leaning in.
Her soft, warm breaths hit his ear, and in the next moment, she whispered the words he was waiting for all this time.
“I love you too…”
His smile couldn’t help but grow softer as he gently set her down on the ground, grabbed her cheeks with both his hands, and, to her surprise, placed a kiss right on her forehead.
A flushed yet satisfied expression appeared on her face as she placed her hand in his.
There was a moment of quiet, knowing silence as, despite their lack of words, they finally got their feelings across.
