Naifertali paused after finishing her words, then continued: "The sacred oath of Niusel is... that he can shatter to pieces for me.
"He is willing to face all enemies of this world, all hardships and obstacles, and all misfortunes of fate for the person he loves."
Annan could clearly see the brilliance on her face.
It was the brilliance of pride for her beloved, pride in falling for such a person, and that such a person could fall for her—
At this point, Naifertali closed her eyes and whispered, "And the Bone of Fearlessness even recognizes this as a form of 'courage'."
"That is indeed courage."
Annan replied, "It is the courage to face the many sufferings of life, the many challenges of fate, without flinching or admitting defeat.
"Sometimes, death is a passionate release. It takes more courage to face an unfortunate life..."
Annan stopped suddenly in the middle of his sentence.
He now understood why Niusel could be recognized by the sacred remains.
