"Brother, there's a little boy standing there staring at you." Ning Man'er pointed towards the city tower and wall, smiling as she spoke.
Chu Mu turned his head and saw a young boy dressed in the Holy Guard Reserve's armor standing there. The boy was staring at him, seemingly wanting to approach but lacking the courage to do so.
Chu Mu found the boy somewhat familiar; he was the same boy he had once rescued from the Ice City Ruins and recommended to join the Holy Guard Reserves.
Looking at the boy's hesitant demeanor, Chu Mu couldn't help but recall his own youth, when he too had gazed at a strong one with the same timid expression.
The boy stood there, staring intently for some time, but ultimately, he couldn't summon the courage to approach.
