Watching Xanthus's flustered expression while he spoke to him in such a soft voice, Noah could sense some warm fluttering feelings gush deep inside his heart, making him feel a bit giddy.
Not only could he feel the sincerity in his tone, but he could also see a tinge of scare hidden beneath his golden eyes which depicted that Xanthus didn't want to scare Noah away from him, unlike how he treated others around him.
"Why would I be scared of such a beautiful person!?" Trying hard to suppress his giddy smile, Noah sounded a little too excited as he stood up on the grass with a jolt.
Making Xanthus flinch, he cleared his throat with a cough and proceeded to explain, "I mean…I was actually scared of you when I met you for the first time, Your Grace. Honestly…I didn't hope that you would actually believe me and spare my life on that night. But…as time passed by, I could see just how many times you have saved my life."
