Chapter 1093 - Steeled Heart (3) (1/2)

This will be the last upload for a while ...

------------------------

When Sophia awoke, she was first shocked. After, when she realized what happened, she thanked Dyon profusely, swearing to pay him back in any way she could.

Dyon only laughed and waved it off. He didn't save her for the credit. Plus, he got a valued experience out of saving her life. When he became a genius of runic vein theory in the future, she would definitely be among those he thanked in his mind.

As for the three disciples Arthurian injured, Dyon simply gave them pills. The valley was closing soon, so despite their injuries being less severe, he didn't have to time to heal them personally. It was a good thing none of them knew much about alchemy and pills, or else they would have been shocked by the level the pill reached.

It wasn't long before the group of six began walking toward the edge of the outer valley. They all knew that there was a large elephant in the room that they weren't speaking of, but there was nothing they could do about Violet's deathly silence. It seemed as though she had not even breathed in the last few days.

Giving Dyon a meaningful look, Sophia and the three disciples walked off ahead, slightly disappearing into the fog.

Dyon couldn't help but cringe when he saw this. Did they really think he was her boyfriend? Dammit.

'If I try to avoid this, they'll think I'm ins.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e.' In the end, he could only grit his teeth and walk beside Violet. Although he didn't particularly care about what others thought of him, he had his own moral line to follow as well. He couldn't leave a woman who had just gone through something like this alone, despite him not having a good initial impression of her.

After almost another hour of complete silence, Violet suddenly spoke. Her voice was clear and firm, once again, as though nothing had happened.

”How did you manage to escape the Grandmaster?”

Dyon smiled weirdly, but still answered. ”Our month-long contract was up a while ago.”

”Oh? I'm surprised she kept her word.” Violet muttered absentmindedly.

Dyon could only silently chuckle. It was true that in those sorts of situations, it would be more likely for the sun to rise in the west than for a woman of Clara's caliber to let something go so easily. But, Clara was his wife, no matter how abrasive she is, she wouldn't make things too difficult for him.

After another long silence, Violet couldn't help but break it again.
