The Silent 583

That day, Kingsley packed his things.

He didn't take much-just a thick coat and some food he had carefully saved up.

He waited until dusk to set off for Tilon Mountain. After a long, exhausting climb to the summit, Kingsley finally saw the Dragonbone Lotus. At that moment, he understood why Pablo and Naya were so eager to gift this flower to the Holy Lady. It was Kingsley's first time seeing a Dragonbone Lotus.

The flower, blooming atop the snowy peak, burned like a flame, its brilliance undiminished even in the fading light.

Every detail matched the legends perfectly.

It was indeed the Dragonbone Lotus, the ideal flower to present to the Holy Lady.

Kingsley muttered, "It's worth a fortune, but there's no helping it. It was their discovery, after all."

In the end, Kingsley let go of the selfish thoughts he had been holding onto.

He cautiously crawled to the edge of the cliff, reaching out to pluck the flower when suddenly, a furious shout erupted from behind him.

"Where did this filthy commoner come from? Drop that flower in your hand immediately!"

Already teetering on the edge, Kingsley was startled by the voice behind him. His foot slipped, and most of his body dangled precariously over the abyss.

Luckily, his reflexes kicked in at the critical moment. One hand grabbed the edge of the cliff, while the other clung tightly to the Dragonbone Lotus, barely saving himself from falling to his death.

Damn it. He had deliberately chosen to come out at dusk to avoid running into anyone.

Who would have thought that even at this hour, someone would still be out there?

Kingsley begged, "Sir, please, let's talk this over! Please pull me up first. I won't touch the Dragonbone Lotus anymore. It's yours, alright? Does that work for you?"
