Now, even her grandpa is no longer around?

The kind-hearted Vivian could feel her heart aching for the young lady in front of her who was crying miserably.

“I'm so sorry, Lucy. I didn't know your grandpa had passed away. If I had known that, I would definitely have returned to look for you.”

Kurt could not help but take a few additional glances at Lucy.

This time, there was some warmth in his gaze.

Lucy wiped her tears while saying, “I'm fine. My uncle treats me well. Even though he objected strongly to my mom's decision to marry my dad last time, he brought me here to take care of me immediately after knowing that I was all alone.”

A smile appeared on the young lady's face once again as she briefly narrated her family circumstances to Vivian and Kurt.

So that's how she's related to this tribe.

Vivian, who had a trusting nature, did not doubt Lucy's words.

Meanwhile, Kurt simply stood beside the girls in silence.

“By the way, I heard you guys asking my uncle about that route just now. Do you intend on going that way? Where are you heading to? There's nothing there except the River of Styx.”

Lucy suddenly brought up the earlier conversation, startling Vivian slightly.
