Upon reaching the porch, Zen promptly guided him to sit by the bonfire that he and Hera had started. They settled around the flickering flames, ready to enjoy their dinner amidst the earthy glow. As they savored their meal, conversation flowed effortlessly, covering a range of mundane topics such as their interests and pastimes.
As Hera and Zen engaged in their usual lively conversation, Xavier listened attentively, quietly taking note of their discussions. He absorbed details about Hera's interests, hobbies, and many more, and even learned about her previous part-time endeavors. Though he didn't interject much, Xavier found himself fascinated by Hera's diverse experiences and the skills she had acquired through her various part-time jobs.
