Chapter 135 – Worthiness
Under a starless night, Noah and Selene sat side by side on the cold ground, gazing into the endless black sky.
There was nothing to see, truthfully. No stars, no moon, no light. Just darkness.
But somehow, even in this bleak, lifeless void, the night felt beautiful.
Not because of the scenery—because of each other.
"How… did you know?" Selene asked softly.
Hearing her speak like that, so meekly, Noah couldn't help but chuckle.
"Hahaha. Since when did you get so shy, Mother? Did you forget who your son is?"
At his teasing, Selene relaxed slightly. Even she didn't quite understand why she was acting this way. But—
"You've changed… tremendously since the last time I saw you, my dear baby," she said gently.
Her gaze swept over Noah, from head to toe. He carried himself with a natural grace and confidence now. His once soft features had sharpened. He looked older, stronger… manlier.
