Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 454

"Commander Marin!" Rocky called out trying to catch up with Marin.

Instead of slowing down, she sped up as if she didn't hear him.

Seeing this, Rocky shot forward to block Marin. This caught her off guard and forced her to bump directly into him.

Shocked at their closeness, Marin immediately blushed. She quickly stepped back and took a few, quick breaths. "You're in my way," she warned with a glare. "Step aside!"

"Before you leave, please let me finish what I have to say." Rocky begged her.

"I don't want to hear it," Marin replied through clenched teeth.

"I know you're mad that I left and didn't eat the gruel you prepared for me. Please let me explain," Rocky replied with a smile.

Surprised, she wondered how Rocky knew the gruel was for him. 'Did one of the army cooks inform him?' she thought.

"What gruel? I don't know what you're talking about," Marin said in a low voice, looking uneasy.

"I wasn't aware you took the time to cook for me. If I had known, I would've stayed to eat. I'm sorry. Thank you again for taking care of me last night," He replied with utmost sincerity.

Hearing this, Marin bit her lower lip and clenched her fists. Her heart began to pound furiously against her chest. As she raised her head to look at Rocky, her mind suddenly went blank and her tongue failed to find the words.

"Consider this my apology." Rocky retrieved from his silk bag a bottle containing ten drops of magical saliva and handed it to her.

"What's this?" Marin asked him as she observed the bottle in his hand.

"Something useful. When you need to cultivate, have one or two drops. You'll be surprised." Rocky refrained himself from telling her the wonders it could cast. "Take this," he said as he gingerly placed it into her palm, "and forgive me for my unintentional mistake." Turning on his heel, he left without another word.

After observing the bottle for a few moments, she called out to him, "Hey! What about your question?"

Rocky grinned as he heard her sweet voice shout his name. How naive and easily comforted she could be.

Doing his best to conceal his laughter, he turned around to reply, "We can save that for later. Don't you have something to do right now?"

"None at the moment. Tell me now," Marin commanded.
