Chapter 1372: Chapter 808: Sarah’s Past_2 Chapter 1372: Chapter 808: Sarah’s Past_2 “Thank you, sir, for saving my life!”
Seeing Leo Ray sitting beside her, Hannah Shawn was caught in a state of confusion and surprise. She quickly bowed her head again to express her gratitude.
As a young female mercenary, she was naturally not unfamiliar with Leo Ray’s appearance, even etched in her memory.
She clearly remembered that from their initial encounter in The Demonic Shadow Forest, to their meeting at Cyan Town’s city gate, and now this time… She had been saved by this young man three times!
No matter his stalwart figure or gentle face, both were deeply rooted in her heart, creating an inexplicable fluttering feeling, which she had never experienced before.
As her thoughts wandered, a hint of crystalline shimmering emerged in Hannah’s eyes.
She had already heard about Leo Ray’s achievements and actions during this time.
She couldn’t understand how someone like her, a mere mercenary, managed to obtain such special attention from this important man time and time again?
“There’s no need for further courtesy, how are you feeling?”
Leo Ray looked at Hannah’s grateful expression and smiled gently.
“Sir, I’m just a mercenary who has fought on the edge of life and death, it’s nothing serious”
As she faced Leo Ray’s concern, Hannah’s expression of gratitude intensified, and she quickly replied: “However, having been saved by you three times, my heart is still overwhelmed with gratitude.”
“The first two times I saved you were unintentional, so don’t worry about it. They were simply the result of a fortunate coincidence.”
Leo Ray waved his hand and frankly responded, “However, this time I saved you deliberately because I need your help.”
“Regardless, sir, you have saved my life three times, which cannot be erased. Had it not been for your help, I would have long been dead!”
Hannah’s face was solemn, and she nodded heavily: “So, please don’t mention ‘help,’ my life belongs to you, and I’m willing to go through fire and water for you.”
Having said that, Hannah sighed softly then quickly added: “I apologize, sir, I’m being too presumptuous. I haven’t even reached Tier 2 strength, how can I talk about going through fire and water for you?”
“I don’t need your strength but your identity and bloodline.”
Seeing that Taylor had completely sealed off the room, Leo Ray got straight to the point: “Hannah, if my research is correct, you should be the last descendant of the Loren Royal Family, which was destroyed a millennium ago, right?”
Upon hearing his words, Hannah stared in disbelief for a moment before finally nodding her head in confirmation: “Yes, sir, I do carry the blood of the Loren Royal Family.”
“According to my late father, my ancestors were once the guardians of this land, always adhering to the knightly spirit, leading their knights across this vast land…”
Through Hannah’s description with her eyes downcast, Leo Ray learned more.
The reason the Loren Kingdom was besieged and attacked by the alliance of nations was mainly due to its abandonment of slavery, which undoubtedly touched the interests of the surrounding countries, ultimately leading to its destruction.
“Before the royal city was completely overtaken, the Loren King secretly sent his youngest prince out of the city through a secret passage, and that prince was my ancestor.”
“To avoid endless wars and fierce pursuit, my ancestor decided to leave this land and seek refuge in a remote village on the border of the Human Clan and the Outer Region, living a life of discreet concealment.”
“After several generations, it wasn’t until 300 years later that my family moved to the far-off Orchid Federation and settled down.”
“With the last of their wealth from the escape, my family still managed to live comfortably as local gentry, but as time passed, by my father’s generation, our family was already impoverished.”
“Moreover, the wars between the Orchid Federation and the Saint Night Kingdom were ongoing, turning our home into scorched earth, leading to the loss of my mother. My father then took me, still a child, wandering to Darkshire in the Saint Night Kingdom.”Hannah’s eyes were filled with nostalgia as she was clearly lost in her memories.
“I grew up in a village near Darkshire. Although my family was poor, we could still have enough to eat and wear warm clothes thanks to my father’s hard work.”
“I had thought that such a peaceful life could go on forever, but then my father fell seriously ill. Despite my desperate efforts to gather medicine, he eventually passed away.”
When Leo Ray heard this, he nodded thoughtfully.
It seemed that the Mirage Shadow they had seen in the forest near the Loren Royal City Ruins at that time was the remnant of Hannah’s image in the past.
“After losing my last family member, I wandered aimlessly and eventually became a mercenary, living a bloody life on the edge of a knife, until I accepted Uncle Kenneth’s mission and met you in the Demonic Shadow Forest, sir.”
As she reached this point, Hannah tried to give Leo Ray a supposedly indifferent smile, but her smile was filled with bitterness and melancholy, as though it was her last bit of strength.
She didn’t really want to be a mercenary and live a nomadic life. It was just that such a life allowed her to forget about her deceased father and all the sadness for a while.
“By the way, my lord, my real name is not Hannah, but Sarah Loren. It was my ancestors who ordered our family members to use aliases when going out in order to avoid revealing our identity as descendants of the royal family.”
Hannah tried to throw away the weakness in her mind, shook her head helplessly at Leo Ray, and said mockingly, “What a great irony it is to claim to be a descendant of the royal family when I can’t even use my own name.”
“Then I’ll call you by your real name from now on.”
After listening to the young female mercenary’s story, Leo Ray smiled slightly at her and said, “Here with me, even if everyone knows your identity, no one dares to touch a hair on your head.”
“Thank you, Sir!”
Looking at Leo Ray’s calm but reassuring face, the young female mercenary was already quite excited and kept expressing her gratitude, “It is a great honor for me to be taken care of by you, sir, in my lifetime!”
In her excitement, Sarah clearly understood.
The young man before her, with unfathomable strength, indeed possessed the capability and capital to speak such words!
“It’s not that exaggerated. The reason you and I were able to meet here is because your identity is crucial.”
Leo Ray nodded at the young female mercenary, whose real name was Sarah, and said bluntly, “Sarah, do you know about the treasure hidden in the Loren Royal City?”
“The treasure?”
Sarah looked puzzled and shook her head at Leo Ray, “Sir, I have never heard about the treasure, I’m afraid my father didn’t know either.”
After a pause, Sarah smiled awkwardly and said frankly, “To tell you the truth, apart from my identity as a Loren Royal Family descendant and the family stories passed down from generation to generation, I have nothing from the Loren royal family, not even ancient books. I don’t even know where the Loren Royal City is.”
“I see. It seems that your ancestors might have sealed off all information in order to completely hide their identities.”
Leo Ray pondered for a moment, then suddenly became enlightened.
Afterwards, he did not hide anything from her and told Sarah about the treasure affairs he had learned from Shane Smith, who was actually Mason Banks’ ancestor.
“Only someone with royal blood like myself can unlock the ancient treasure?”
After listening to Leo Ray’s description, Sarah answered without hesitation, “Sir, everything you do is for the sake of the people on this land, and you have saved my life. If the treasure can be of use to you, I will not hesitate to break the seal for you!”
“Very well. Before that, there is one last thing I want to ask.”
Leo Ray nodded satisfactorily and smiled at Sarah, “Are you willing to become my subordinate and work together with me from now on?”
