Chapter 423: Sarriel (2)

'Aren't you going to comfort her? This is a good way to a woman's heart, you know.' Ailsa said cheekily.

Ryu didn't even know how to respond to that. He was the reason she was in this state to begin with, so how would he gain brownie points for comforting her?

Ryu shook his head. 

"You have nothing to apologize for. I may have jumped to conclusions a bit too quickly, I'm sorry. What is it that you wanted to speak with me about?"

Sarriel sniffled, looking up at Ryu as though to make sure that he really wasn't mad. It was only then that she sighed a breath of relief and tried to regain her bearings. Ryu's aura was really too scary. 

Of course, her reaction seemed to be odd itself. After all, she was ultimately the core disciple of an Eighth Order Sect and had been dealing with corpses all her life. Should she really have been scared so easily?
