Chapter 35: 034 An Absolutely Unknown Secret Nightfall quietly descended. At the foot of the Mangal Mountain Range, Vivian's Team had already set up their tents and lit a campfire to illuminate the surroundings. At this moment, led by Vivian, the girls of the team gathered around the campfire, their gazes cast to the side. There, Shane, with his back to them, was walking away into the distance. Watching Shane like this, Vivian's expression was filled with concern. Meanwhile, Tielle, Lu Muya, and Merica exchanged glances. "Um, Sister Vivian," Lu Muya shyly asked, "what's wrong with him?" Lu Muya voiced the question everyone was thinking. It was clear that everyone had noticed something amiss between Shane and Vivian. "You were just having a good conversation earlier, so why suddenly...?" Merica spoke up too, though she didn't quite know how to describe it. In such circumstances, even Tielle cast an inquiring look at Vivian. To this, Vivian sighed. "I really don't know what's wrong," Vivian replied helplessly. "For some reason, Shane suddenly became like that." Recalling the conversation from earlier, Vivian realized that after she mentioned "The Hero must never appear again," Shane fell completely silent and didn't say another word. No, Shane did say one more thing to Vivian afterward. "I'll take a short walk nearby." Leaving those words, Shane left just like that. "Did I say something wrong?" Vivian began to reflect. "I don't think it's your problem." Tielle spoke up in a calm manner, saying, "It should be that man's own issue, right?" Tielle's words were quite piercing. But that was Tielle, just as Shane had always felt, decisive, calm, and a bit taciturn. Even in Lamijion, many male adventurers found her intimidating.@@@@ On the other hand, with Shane not present, Lu Muya and Merica seemed more cheerful than before. Lu Muya still exhibited a shy demeanor, yet at least her speech no longer faltered and became more fluent. As for Merica, there was no need to say; without the constraints, even her expression grew much lighter. This was the true nature of Vivian's Team. Vivian was gentle and caring. Tielle was indifferent and taciturn. Lu Muya was timid and shy. Merica was quite lively, in contrast to her previously tense demeanor, though she had restrained this part of her personality upon Shane's arrival. Now that Shane was absent, Merica became less restrained. "Sister Vivian, are you worried about that man?" Merica asked Vivian enthusiastically. "Though you've always been so gentle, this time seems a bit different, doesn't it?" "Is that so?" Vivian appeared taken aback by this statement. "I feel the same way," Lu Muya said hesitantly, sneaking a glance at Vivian. "It seems like Sister Vivian's attention toward Mr. Shane is even more than toward newcomers before." Adding to that, having almost been offended by a male adventurer in the past, how could Merica possibly feel close to a stranger male adventurer? Yet, Shane evoked such a feeling in Merica. This sensation, if placed in one of the novels from Shane's previous life, might have become a signal of a romantic offer. But in truth, rather than feeling happy about such spontaneous emotions, Merica felt somewhat afraid. Because of this, Merica was overly tense in front of Shane. Perhaps this was the most genuine reaction of a truly pure woman. Vivian and others were all quite surprised. "Even Merica feels that way?" Lu Muya expressed her astonishment. "..." Tielle seemed to frown slightly. "Elves are beings born from Nature, closest to Nature and the world, even revered as the race nearest to the Divine Race," Vivian remarked with some astonishment, mumbling, "To make an elf feel close from the start, logically, only the Divine Race could do it." Could Shane be of the Divine Race? Impossible. "Isn't the Divine Race all female?" Tielle straightforwardly pointed out. "That's right," Vivian nodded in affirmation, "Since the first god born, the Supreme God Ominis, is a Goddess, and all other gods split their power from that Goddess, acquiring respective jurisdictions and authorities, becoming life forms modeled after the Supreme God Ominis, hence all Divines are Goddesses, only Goddesses." Thus, Shane was certainly not of the Divine Race. Then, who exactly was Shane? Recalling his earlier behavior and excessive reaction to "Demon King" and "Hero," Vivian's eyes flickered. (Could it be...) Before Vivian could finish her thought, Tielle raised her head. "Since that man is so special, what do you plan to do?" Tielle asked anyway. "What to do?" Vivian came back to her senses, pondered for a moment, and said, "We don't need to do anything special, just treat him as an ordinary newcomer and train him." Regardless of the secrets he bore, unless they could confirm it as something bad, Vivian didn't plan on delving too deeply. After all, doesn't everyone have a little secret of their own? Not to mention, Vivian herself had secrets unbeknownst to others. Not just Vivian, but even Tielle... Vivian glanced at Tielle, thought for a bit, and said, "Now that Shane's emotions seem a bit unstable, letting him act alone might be too dangerous. Could I trouble you to follow him secretly and protect him for now?" In response, Tielle didn't give a reply, but after a moment stood up and walked in the direction Shane had departed. Lu Muya and Merica watched Tielle and continued their conversation. As for Vivian, she couldn't help but think inwardly. (I hope it's not what I think.) Otherwise, this world might find itself in turmoil once again. Enhance your reading experience by removing ads: Remove Ads Now
