Chapter 332

Chapter 332 The lively street gradually became stained with blood, unnoticed by the bustling crowd.

When Eliza realized the metallic scent in the air, she looked up in surprise, scanning her s surroundings. After a moment, her gaze locked onto Nolan.

Upon seeing her reaction, Nolan spoke calmly, Just a few assassins. They’ve been dealt with.”

“When did that happen?‘ thought Eliza.

She hadn’t noticed a single sound!

Eliza’s eyes widened, her face filling with shock.

“Don’t worry,” Nolan reassured her, his tone steady and protective. “I won’t let them disturb you.

He had handled them with precision. None of the assassins had even gotten close to Eliza before Nolan eliminated them all.

However, Nolan felt a strange sense of unease as the last one fell.

His eyes narrowed slightly, suspicion flickering in his gaze.

Nolan thought. It seems these assassins aren’t just after Serenity. Two of them have aimed their blades at me as targeting both of us. Who could they be?‘

Who would dare to go after both Prince Nolan and Holy Lady?

well. The group is Eliza decided not to let the matter dampen the mood since it was already resolved. She smiled and said, “Let’s go. We’re right by the river anyway.”

The streets hosting the Light Show were just a short walk from the riverbank.

Every time Hasen City held the Light Show, crowds would gather by the river to make wishes and release their water lanterns.

It was quite late by the time Eliza and Nolan arrived.

The river was dotted with countless water lanterns of various shapes and sizes, their flickering lights painting the water with a kaleidoscope of shimmering colors.

Eliza and Nolan found a spot on a low riverbank. Each of them took a hntern and set it aside for the moment.

Nolan then pulled out paper and a pen, clearly having come prepared. He hunded a set to Eliza.

“Write your wish, put it in the water lantern, and let it float downstream. They say that’s how wishes come Eliza glanced at Nolan, her eyes filling with curiosity.

Noticing her expression, Nolan asked, “What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?”

Of course, has strikingly handsome face was flawless.

She was simply surprised.

I didn’t expect you to say that. Honestly, I thought I’d be the one saying it Eliza chuckled softly, teasing him.

true.”

“After all, who would’ve thought the fearless Prince Nolan, who faces gods and demons without flinching, would believe in something so whimsical thought Eliza.

Nolan smiled faintly but didn’t respond.

He hadn’t believed in such things before but wanted to a now.

“Go ahead and write. We’ll release them together in a moment,” said Nolan 1/2 Chapter 332 “Alright.” Eliza nodded obediently.

Eliza and Nolan began writing their wishes.

It didn’t take long for them to finish jotting down their thoughts on the small slips of paper.

They folded the notes and placed them inside their water lanterns, then gently set them afloat on the river.

The two small water lanterns bobbed gently on the water, carrying their heartfelt wishes downstream, blending into the glowing river of dreams and hopes.

“What did you write!” asked Eliza.

Eliza turned around and saw Nolan gazing at the drifting water lanterns, lost in thought.

Curiosity sparked within her, and she couldn’t help but ask.

Nolan snapped out of his daze at her question. When his eyes met hers–those luminous eyes glowing under the light–he felt a bit flustered and quickly looked away “Nothing much, just wished for health and peace, Nolan said casually, his tone slightly evasive.

Eliza wasn’t s asn’t surprised by his answer. After all, wishing for health and peace was a common sentiment, whether for oneself or loved ones.

She might have written something similar in the past. But now, she couldn’t think of anything to wish for.

So, she simply released a water lantern into the river.

An empty water lantern, carrying no wishes.

What Eliza didn’t know was that Nolan, beside her, had made wishes on her behalf.

A water lantern filled with two heartfelt wishes.

[May she be blessed with health, happiness, and peace throughout her life.)

[May all her dreams, whatever they may be, come true.]
