"Thank you for saving me earlier… and I'm sorry for what I said." Izel spoke those words while avoiding looking at me.
This was truly unexpected… hearing words like that from her was a new discovery.
So, in the end, she was capable of thanking people after all… or maybe the problem was me.
I stared at Izel, a smile forming on my lips. "Wow… I'm watching a dream come true today… the honorable Izel herself thanking me and even apologizing to me… the world must have started changing its view of me."
The moment I said that, her shy behavior disappeared, replaced by her usual one.
She looked at me, clicking her tongue as she muttered, "Bastards don't change."
She sighed while looking around, then spoke, changing the subject. "Anyway, where are the others? Did we get separated from them?"
I nodded. "Yeah, it seems so."
"Did you try sending a flare? They might see it if they're close to here."
