581.Chapter 581
In Saint Snow City, a few small figures darted through the alleys, stopping by a house on the side of the street. They clung to the window frame, shouting excitedly into the house, “Kingsley! Kingsley!”
“Come out! We’ve got something amazing!”
“No, it’s not just amazing. It’s incredible!”
“Hurry up, Kingsley! Don’t keep us waiting!”
The kids‘ chatter was so loud that the young man inside couldn’t take it anymore. Rubbing his ears, he threw on his jacket and stepped outside.
He shouted, “Alright, alright, I’m coming! What’s all the fuss about?”
“Come on, Kingsley, move faster! This time, it’s really something special!”
Kingsley Middleton sighed, stepping outside with a helpless smile. “Fine, fine, I’m here. So, what’s this big deal that’s got you all so excited? Shouldn’t you by the fire at home?”
As Kingsley got closer, the chubby boy, Pablo Roth, at the front immediately lowered his voice and whispered mysteriously,” Kingsley, yesterday, we went to play near Tilon Mountain, and guess what? We found something amazing at the top! It looks just like one of those legendary divine flowers–so pretty!”
“Yeah, yeah! It’s super pretty!”
“Kingsley, the flower is fiery red, like flames!”
The kids‘ voices rose in a jumble, each trying to outshout the others, their excitement bubbling over.
Kingsley knew these little rascals loved to run wild and had seen all kinds of plants. Usually, they’d just find something mildly interesting, but for them to be this excited? That flower had to be something special.
“A rare flower, huh?” That piqued Kingsley’s interest. “Alright, tell me more. What does it look like exactly?”
“It’s fiery red!”
“Like a snow lotus!”
“No, no, it’s a fiery red snow lotus!”
“Snow lotuses aren’t red! It’s a fire lotus!”
