Chapter 455_Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany

Meanwhile, on the other side, the helicopter continued its flight. It was still two hours out from Lovell City.

 Keh’s injuries had been treated, and he’d taken his medicine and an injection. After resting for a bit, he was feeling better.

 He nced around at his subordinates, most of whom were sitting quietly, a few already half asleep from the long flight.

 Tiffany, though, was still sitting up straight, her posture stiff. Despite her calm, collected look, her clenched fists betrayed just how eager she was to get home.

 Keh quietly got up and sat next to her, lowering his voice to keep it soft, his tone a bit rough from just waking up. “We’re almost there. We’ll stop to refuel and head straight back to Lovell City after.”

 “Yeah.” Tiffany gave him a small smile. “Thanks for helping out.”

 Keh blinked, slightly dazed. After a moment, he replied, “No need to thank me. Me and my people back home are kind- hearted. Don’t be burdened.”

 He felt awkward lying and stumbled over his words. If Tiffany could see him, she would’ve noticed how stiff and ufortable he looked.

 As Keh spoke, the helicopter began to slowly descend. They were heading back toward the same valley they’d flown over earlier.

 But just as they were about tond, Keh noticed another helicoptering down right behind them.

 “This is our chance,” a man in the other helicopter said. “Miss Xanthus wants us to get rid of this woman, no matter what! Listen up–no mercy. We can’t leave anyone alive!”

 “Got it!” came the reply as everyone got ready.

 On Keh’s helicopter, one of his subordinates urgently called out. “Not good, the helicopter behind us isnding too! What should we do?“.

 Keh’s heart skipped a beat. These were the same people who had chased Tiffany before they went to Azure Sea Royal Pce.

 In other words, all of this was sent by the mighty Saintess, Morwen. She was really persistent. First, she failed to kill them in the Treasure Pavilion, and now she was chasing them down, even though it was way too risky.

 Keh’s face darkened as he asked, “How much longer can we keep going withoutnding? How long will the fuelst?”

 “It won’tst much longer.” The flight time was long, and the helicopter itself had tond to refuel. There was no other choice, they would have to fight for their lives.

 Keh took a deep breath and gave the orders, his voice steady. “Count the people and weapons. Five of you, get Tiffany

 with me!” out of here. The rest, stay

 “But-“The subordinate hesitated, but couldn’t go against Keh’s unwavering decision. “It’s decided. Get ready. I want these people to never return.”

 “Yes!” The man gritted his teeth and left to carry out the orders.

 Tiffany heard themotion and quickly grabbed Keh’s hand. “You’re hurt. You should be the one to go.”

 Without a second thought, she shoved the box into his hands. “Please, just onest thing–take this herb to Luna Vi.”

 Keh had already suspected that she was the Miracle Healer. After all, when he and Melody were engaged, June, the Miracle Healer’s butler, hade to him with the truth,ced in sarcasm.

 Now, it all clicked into ce. That must visited Luna Vi to ask for medicine for the Miracle Healer, whom he had never met, had been so hostile when he Sandra, who was disfigured.Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

 It was because she was Tiffany. Keh help but smile bitterly. It seemed he was realizing all the secrets a little toote.

 Back then, on the night Tiffany saved him, he had foolishly mistaken the person he fell in love with at first sight for Melody.

 One wrong decision led to another, and now, when he finally understood his feelings and wanted to turn back, he realized the woman who had always been by his side had long since gone.

 Keh sighed and pushed the box with the Eternal Herb back, trying to joke. “Come on, I’m a guy. Let me have my moment to be the hero.”

 Tiffany wasn’t having it. “No. Either you leave, or I stay.”

 From the beginning, they had been after her, so as long as she stayed, no one else would be in danger.

 Keh opened his mouth to argue, but it was already toote. The helicopter had just touched down, and the one behind themnded a good ten seconds before. Gunshots rang out almost immediately. No one was getting out of this without a fight.

 “Go!” Keh ordered, and just like that, his bodyguards jumped into action. Gunfire filled the air as both sides went at it with everything they had.

 Tiffany turned to Keh. “Got any more weapons? Give me one.”

 Her bow and arrow, the ones Richard had given her–beautiful, sturdy, and named Gxy–had fallen into the stream when she crashed. A shame, really, considering how well it had served her. But now, it was gone just like that.

 Keh didn’t say anything, just handed her a gun. It felt right in her hand. She found a good spot, letting the wind guide her aim. Her sight might be gone, but she didn’t miss once.

 Odin and his guys were stunned, mouths wide open.

 “What the hell?” one of them yelled. Seeing someone who couldn’t see shoot more urately than they could was enough to crush their pride.

 However, their shock only pushed them harder. They weren’t about to let Tiffany outdo them. Their attacks became even more brutal.

 The tide of the fight shifted quickly. The enemies who’d had the upper hand were now getting pushed back.

 Meanwhile, the assassin leader was grinding his teeth, furious. “Blow it up! Do whatever it takes!”

 With that, a small grenade was thrown a few secondster.

 “Back up!” Keh shouted immediately. Everyone scrambled to retreat. A loud bang echoed through the air, and dust and sand flew everywhere.

 In that critical moment, Keh grabbed Tiffany and pulled her behind a hidden rock. For the time being, they were safe- bullets couldn’t reach them. But the box Tiffany had been clutching had fallen a few meters away.

 “The Eternal Herb, I can’t lose it!” she said, her voice a little frantic.

 She couldn’t afford to lose that herb–it had taken so much effort to get from Azure Sea Royal Pce.

 She started to crawl out, but Keh yanked her back. “Do you wanna die?” His voice was desperate, almost a shout.

 rmination.

 Tiffany’s face set in determination. Pushing his hand off, she got up and rolled out. A grenade hadn’t been what she’d expected–her focus had been on listening for the enemy.

 As Keh moved her, the box with the Eternal Herb slipped from her grasp and fell just out of reach.
