462 Faelyns Blush (2/2)

Princess Thessalia was forced to do a double glance and inspect her baby sister's cultivation. She was surprised that it was true.

However, she still shook her head and said, ”A 9-Star Rank Awakener is still not enough! Even a Transcendent's strength might not be enough! The rat tide is too big, while an individual's strength is limit! My word is final. Go back now!”

Princess Thessalia did not spare another second and immediately shot to the top of the trees, leaving Princess Faelyn and the others behind.

Princess Faelyn shortly sighed.

”Your sister seems rather rude and blunt, but she does mean well for you. Seems like your sisterly relationship is quite strong.” Leon patted Faelyn on the shoulder and consoled her.

Princess Faelyn nodded, ”I know. I hope my sister had not offended you two. She can be quite crude and pedantic, but she is a good person at heart.”

Faelyn's eyes flickered with resolve, undeterred by her sister's words as she had her own ideas on helping with the problem at hand.

Although her sister's word rang true about an individual's strength being limited in the current situation, it did not apply to everyone.

Her third eldest sister's mindset was too rigid to be persuaded with a few words.

Seeing the look in Princess Faelyn's eyes, Leon smiled wryly with a shake of his head, ”It seems my words were unnecessary.”

”I still have to thank you for your kind intentions.” Princess Faelyn said with a smile.

Very shortly, her expression turned serious as she suddenly grabbed both of Leon's hands. She looked him in the eyes and pleaded, ”Can you help us?”

She believed that Leon would be able to help her people. He had too many mysterious abilities—not to mention one of them being fire, which the rats were very afraid of.

Leon was surprised by Faelyn's boldness in holding his hands. However, he recovered quickly and gave his answer, ”Of course!”

Even so, he did not release Faelyn's hands immediately.

Her hands gave him a soft and cooling sensation, making them feel very pleasant to the touch. He could not help but give them a few rubs with his thumbs.

”Thank you…”

Faelyn retracted her hands immediately, feeling embarrassed and shy at the same time. She averted eyes with a deep blush, unable to look at Leon directly.

”Hmm…”

Aria hummed at the side, giving Leon an inexplicable look. Her expression was indecipherable.

Leon was shortly startled, knowing whether Aria was jealous or mad by his interaction with Princess Faelyn just now.

”Ahem.” Leon coughed, pretending not to notice before he said, ”Well then, I'll go help now.”

Shortly after, he flew up to the top of vine walls.
