After chatting with Layla for a while about various things, Xinran decided to get going.
"Make sure to remain vigilant and come back alive. Sir Zephyr, please keep an eye on this idiot princess of vampires; she's always reckless and creates trouble everywhere she goes…"
"I leave her safety in your capable hands."
Zephyr was taken aback for a second, but then he nodded his head and accepted the request.
'I have already made a cooperation agreement with Xinran; no point treating Layla as an enemy…'
'Moreover, I was going to try my best to remain safe anyway; it won't be a big deal to help out Xinran if she ends up in a difficult situation too…'
Zephyr wasn't good enough of a person to sacrifice himself for others, but he could at least try his best if needed.
"Who are you calling reckless!? Hmph! This young lady is thousands of times stronger than any of you! You should think about your own safety! You lot are too weak to be thinking about standing on equal footing with me!"
