Chapter 78 (Maple Leaves Scatter) Heartfelt Intentions

"Please, everyone."

The traveler stood at the entrance to the secret realm, closed his eyes, and clasped his hands together. The four people standing together gave different responses.

"Leave it to me." This is the gentle heart of mine, sometimes a little cunning, but very reliable in crucial moments.

Kaede Man'yō looked at the wanderer standing to one side, his eyes crinkling into a smile. His red eyes were as sweet as maple syrup. Seeing that the wanderer still wouldn't pay him any attention, Man'yō could only turn back and answer the traveler gently, "I will do my best."

Upon hearing Maple Leaf's reply, the wanderer scoffed, "Useless fellow."

Nasita stepped off the green swing, her voice gentle and comforting, "You can't fight, okay?"

The wanderer tugged at his hat, blocking his view, clearly not wanting to hear Nasita lecture him any further. The traveler, somewhat bewildered by their reactions, hesitated for a moment before cautiously approaching Nasita and quietly asking the wanderer and Wanye what was wrong.

Nasita sighed, her voice carrying a strange sense of melancholy, like an old mother concerned for her wayward son. She whispered to the traveler, "Yesterday, A-Mao took the pastries he made to Man-Yo, and found him talking to the priest of Inazuma."

The traveler exclaimed, "Divine Child? How come the two of them are talking together?"

Nasita blinked her big eyes. "Ah Mao is angry, and Wan Ye won't tell him about yesterday. Ah Mao hasn't wanted to talk to him since."

Nasita's voice wasn't kept secret from the others; it was clearly a hint to Manyo. Before Manyo could speak, the wanderer became agitated upon hearing Nasita's words.

Don't call me that stupid name!

The wanderer lowered his hat brim, intending to enter the secret realm first. Maple Leaf followed closely behind, opening his mouth as if to say something, but then closed it and quietly followed behind the wanderer. Behind them, Heart Sea closed his storybook and followed along with the helpless Nasita.

Even after entering the secret realm, the Wanderer remained irritable. He beat up almost every monster he encountered, with Nasita following behind to watch over them, while Xin Hai chased after the Wanderer to heal his wounds.

Wan Ye stayed close to the Wanderer, trying her best to coordinate with him. However, the Wanderer didn't even look at Wan Ye, only charging ahead. The intense battle kept the three at the front extremely busy, while the Traveler behind found that he didn't need to lift a finger, so he chatted with Paimon and slacked off.

At some point, Naxida also retreated to the back.

"Traveler, how do you think people make up after an argument?"

By this time, most of the monsters had been cleared out, leaving only a few scattered ones being chased and attacked by the Wanderer, with Xin Hai and Wan Ye still following behind him. Seeing that there was nothing for her to do, Nasida stayed close to the Traveler.

Upon hearing Nasita's question, the traveler touched his chin and thought about it carefully.

“If you’re talking about wanderers and Manyo, then it’s more difficult.”

The traveler sighed and cautiously moved closer to Nasita. "Look at his temper. When he's angry, anyone who provokes him will get yelled at. Especially the person who made him angry."

Nasita was very worried. She was concerned that the homeless man's anger was affecting her mood, and even more worried that after she finished grading his papers, she might not see him for days. Given his current state of mind, such a thing was possible.

Nasita was worried, Nasita was troubled. Nasita didn't want her beloved doll to run away from home.

"Perhaps, we should let Manyo explain."

Nasida thought about it and came up with the most suitable solution.

The traveler looked at Nasita, his eyes filled with emotion. "You truly are a very reliable deity."

Nasita was somewhat surprised, her tender green eyes filled with shyness. "I believe those predecessors are all reliable, and I still have a lot to learn from them."

The traveler grasped Nasita's hand. "Believe in yourself. Also, it's one thing to let Manyo explain things clearly, but the wanderer also needs to be willing to listen."

Nasita and the Traveler exchanged a glance, then looked at the three who had been fighting. They saw the Wanderer nearly get hit by an arrow because he had charged too far forward. Manyo quickly pulled the Wanderer back, taking the injury himself.

In the nick of time, Nasita tried to intervene, but the traveler held her back. Nasita saw the traveler's gaze and suddenly understood. However, her eyes remained fixed on the person in front of her, ready to intervene immediately if anything went wrong.

"Don't worry, Xinhai is still there, and she's very capable too."

The wanderer's supple body spun around, carrying Wan Ye away to prevent him from suffering further injury. He tossed the man to the trotting Xin Hai and then went back to eliminate the remaining monsters.

Nasita and the traveler then caught up and saw a shimmering Manyo, healed by the Sea of ​​Hearts. The wanderer, still lecturing Manyo, said, "...Are you an idiot? I don't need you to shield me from injury. Anyway, I'm a puppet, I don't feel pain."

As Wan Ye listened to the homeless man's lecture, he retorted when he heard this sentence: "I know you'll feel pain." His red eyes were filled with the homeless man's affection, and he couldn't help but turn his face away.

The vagrant fell silent. He had only disciplined him out of concern. Even though he was stubborn, he could never lie to Wan Ye.

The silence was broken by Xin Hai; she was truly exhausted. As the healer in the team, the hardest part was dealing with teammates running around aimlessly. "Traveler, today's mission is complete. I'm heading back now."

Upon hearing Xin Hai's words, the traveler quickly replied, "I recently found a very interesting book in the secret realm; I'll deliver it tomorrow." With that, the traveler pulled Nasita along to see Xin Hai off. Only the quiet Wan Ye and the awkward wanderer remained in the quiet room.

After a moment of silence, the wanderer took the initiative and said, "Let's go." Before he could take a step, he was grabbed by Wan Ye. When he turned around, the wanderer saw that Wan Ye was holding an amulet in his bandaged hand.

"I originally wanted to give you a surprise. I didn't know if you liked amulets. When I spoke with Lady Naga, I only asked her some questions about making amulets."

Wan Ye's voice was gentle, and only then did the wanderer notice the weariness on his face. The wanderer's voice was a little hoarse, "You've been up all night?"

A look of surprise flashed in Wan Ye's eyes, and he touched his head somewhat awkwardly. "...Well, it didn't look very good."

"...Go back and sleep with me."

The wanderer took the amulet from Wan Ye's hand, pulled him by the hand, and left the secret realm. Wan Ye's face was full of indulgence.

The traveler and Nasita, hiding in a corner outside the secret realm, watched the two emerge. Nasita was somewhat surprised, but the traveler was very pleased, "See, they've made up."

Nasita nodded. "They've made up."
