IT WAS true that the Cosmic Tree had asked Neoma to help Kingston, the White Lion, be freed from Calyx Dalton.
However, nobody told her she was supposed to save the entire Lion Tribe.
[Dear Cosmic Tree, is it too much to ask for a heads-up?]
"What's wrong, Princess Neoma?" Sharon asked worriedly. "Am I mistaken?"
"No, not at all," Neoma said, flashing her business smile. It wasn't like she was being fake. She was just trying to hide her irritation at the Cosmic Tree because she didn't want to lash out at Sharon, or anyone else for that matter. "Miss Sharon, I'm deeply grateful to you. I will repay your kindness whatever happens."
Sharon looked relieved by what she said.
Saving people wasn't a big deal to her.
However, she hated how the celestial beings around her treated her as if she was a delivery person who would always "deliver" their "food" at their behest.
Gosh.
[No wonder I set the world on fire during my first life.]
