From your heartbeat, you surely are.\" Sarah chuckled, her beautiful laughter ringing like nature's melody.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian looked at her smile and smiled back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They held each other in silence for a long time. There were no talks. No movements. It was in moments like this Varian was reminded what he really wants and what was missing in his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A warm and loving family. And peace to keep a smile on their face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't do it in the past, but now he had the capability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'For my family…For me, for these two girls, I must…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh! I will go and wash my face.\" Sarah suddenly got up and rushed back into her room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian was dumbfounded but before he could even say a word, she closed the door shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haa!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I…I did it.\" Sarah placed her hand on her chest and smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she covered her cheeks and blushed furiously. \"D-Did I just say all that? W-What was I thinking?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah drilled into her quilt and hid herself in the bed. \"After doing all that, how I can see him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh…\" Sarah rolled on the bed as she hugged the quilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her mind was hyperactive and she was thinking a million things. Most of them didn't make sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thankfully, Varian didn't see her in this state or he might've wondered if she had problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, Sarah paused and sighed deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her embarrassment wore off and after washing up, she went back into the living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? Did he leave already?\" Sarah looked around but found no signs of the guy who just admitted his love.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah! Brain, be back to normal already.\" Sarah patted her head and focused her body senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, she appeared in the dining hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides the usual large table, there was now a small round table with seating for two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were a couple of ordinary, but aromatic dishes on the table. Even from afar, Sarah could sniff the smell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's this?\" Sarah asked as she seated herself across Varian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You were trying cooking, didn't you?\" Varian placed his chin on his hand and smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I…I failed. I totally suck at it.\" Sarah lowered her head and admitted in shame. In her defense, she didn't have much time to practice as she usually spent time on training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And she wasn't Anna. The all-powerful maid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha. Don't worry about it.\" Varian laughed and served her the dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah didn't need to think to know—he made them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah didn't have a high expectation, but her opinion changed after the first bite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a normal dish—there was no aura in it. Not even a level 1 beast's aura…yet, it was darn tasty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna's cooking raised Sarah's standards. So while his cooking wasn't objectively better, Sarah found it to her liking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The taste, the aroma…there was something magical in them she couldn't point out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their smalls talks continued during the meal as Varian informed Sarah about his plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah wiped her mouth with a napkin and looked at Varian with curious eyes. \"I liked it. Thank you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha. You don't need to try with level one meat. Even normal ingredients can be used to make great foods.\" Varian waved his hand. \"Besides, it's a waste of time to learn something so hard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"B-But didn't you like Anna's dishes? I wanted to do the same for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not because they're high-level ingredients. I just like the taste.\" Varian shrugged and admitted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"T-Then m-me…\" Sarah facepalmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I like you the way you are. No need to go out of your way. Besides, if you still like it, I will teach you some normal dishes once I'm free.\" Varian waved his hand and said casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah felt a strange sense of relief upon hearing his words. She was trying so hard, trying to be like Anna.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now she realized she didn't need to be Anna to have him smile. She would do it in her own way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah smiled brightly and looked at his handsome face. \"I didn't know you could cook.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I couldn't. But Sia used to force me to cook as revenge sometimes…\" Varian laughter trailed off and abruptly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere suddenly cooled down. Even if it was a monkey, it'd know that something was off. Much less Varian. He already noticed the change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian looked at Sarah's cold expression and his thoughts raced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn't say anything wrong, so what happened to her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sia…Sia…they are best friends, so is Sarah getting worried about her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, Sarah was indeed worried about Sia's safety. How could she not? But after Varian told her previously that she was in Shadow Guardians, and was protected by Enigma, she heaved a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Sia was captured, Sarah would've done everything at her disposal to protect her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after knowing that Sia was voluntarily workin in the Shadow Guardians, along with relief, Sarah also felt a faint resentment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was worried about you for so long, but you didn't even contact me. Is that how much our friendship worth?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if that wasn't enough, Varian brought up Sia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Somehow, Sarah felt a sense of frustration and anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The topic took a dangerous turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So…Mr. Dreamer, you are joining the Shadow Guardians to find Sia?\" Sarah asked with a natural expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh-oh.\" Varian nodded. He explained his plans already as he didn't wish for her to be worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what about me?\" Sarah pointed to herself as she gritted her teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about you?\" Varian raised a brow. \"You'll need to attend the academy. You want to graduate and enlist in the army, don't you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah clenched her fists and looked at him before she let out a sigh like a deflated balloon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was Varian dense or was he pretending to be dense?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah's eyes narrowed and she decided to check his feelings on Sia.\u003C\u002Fp>",1021,"2026-06-06T07:58:11.288Z",1,"novelbin.me","09329531c5a1cf483f1694a766f052d3719b6ebe444a71a8a4cee3f2bcba69ae","divine-path-system-chapter-340","divine-path-system-chapter-338",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
