Treasure Hunting

"Do it. I'm incapacitated already anyway. How worse could it be to ruin a few more meridians! I'm going through a hell lot of pain right now. You can't possibly make it any worse," Zachary replied miserably.

His words stung Elva; she quickly realized the truth that he was badly incapacitated by his injuries. And her words would only hurt Zachary even further. She was not an inconsiderate and heartless person who would inflict further pain on someone suffering a lot. And in fact, she never really intended to kill Zachary in the first place. He had touched and kissed her already. If she reignited her anger each time she saw Zachary, it would not change anything. It was pointless to hurt Zachary now, especially since he had suffered a lot already.

"Fine, it's water under the bridge. But you must keep it a secret. If anyone finds out about it, I'll definitely kill you!" Elva threatened.

"I will never let anyone know about what happened that day. Elva, you're really a warmhearted person! You are not only beautiful, but also very kind. You're like an angel who came down from heaven..." Zachary exclaimed.

"All right, stop the ass-kissing. Just keep moving!" Elva said. She blushed a little when she heard Zachary's words of appreciation. She took a deep breath, returned to her usual cold expression and walked on.

'The misunderstanding between us should be considered resolved. And that sub-quest should be considered complete.' Zachary felt relieved. That was because if he cleared their misunderstanding, he could complete and clear the sub-quest of Eliminate the Misunderstanding.

'Next, I should prepare for the selection test. I will have to show everyone in the Welkin Sect of my power and make Elva admire my skills, ' Zachary thought to himself as he watched Elva walk away.

He thought about it and he knew that it wouldn't be an easy task to make Elva love him. It seemed fortunate that Bruce beat him so badly that it made Elva feel sympathetic to him. Without the injuries he received from Bruce, there was no way that Elva would have forgiven him.
