That's not fair at all

Yue nodded and fiddled with the bracelets, her voice becoming slower.

"My father found the remaining parts. It's a divine rank artifact..."

She wanted to say more, but didn't know where to start. The moment she mentioned her father, memories of the difficult time came rushing back, making her vision blurry. She hadn't shown her emotions so openly since her father passed, so why did she have to embarrass herself in front of Kyle?

Kyle did not really care about the divine artifact. Not this one, or maybe he would not even in the future because the one that ate his soul was enough to give him a big aversion toward divine rank artifacts. But he noticed that the corner of Yue's eyes turned red when she mentioned her father.

'Don't tell me...?'

He quietly pulled his chair next to her and surprised her by suddenly putting his arm around her and gently rubbing her back.

"I know it's hard, but it'll get better."
