Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“This time, I knew what I was fighting for, I did not kill for the pleasure of doing it. When I stood up from the pile of enemies’ bodies, I have never felt the meaning of ‘being alive’ so clearly before. Although my feelings are not as strong as Elvis, it was enough for me to thank you.” Auretin was expressionless, but he said it slowly yet firmly, making Gu Mengmeng convinced that he was not being polite, not trying to fawn upon her, but it was his honest feelings.

Feeling the meaning of ‘being alive’…

This sentence sounded familiar.

Ah, Gu Mengmeng remembered, she had heard Elvis saying something similar.

Before establishing Saint Nazaire, he wandered around, stirring up trouble and getting into fights just for the pleasure of killing. In the end, even killing made him numbed, the biggest question he had that time was… why live?

So when he met Lea and Lea suggested on establishing a tribe, he agreed on it out of boredom.

At the same time, Lea then did not have the meaning of ‘being alive’, he struggled to live just to take revenge.

Was Auretin… like this too?

Gu Mengmeng did not dig deeper into Auretin’s past. She understood that if she had no plans on taking in a male, she should not intervene too much into his life.

Gu Mengmeng poured a cup of honey water for Auretin and said, “I do not know what you felt in this fight, but thank you for staying alive.”

Auretin was stunned for a moment, he took over the cup from Gu Mengmeng with both hands. He stared into the ripples in the cup, smiled slightly and did not answer.

So, this was the feeling of being alive.

Gu Mengmeng turned to look at Ian. The ill-looking lad had struggles written all over his face, it seemed like he did not dare to look at Gu Mengmeng, but he also keep peeking at her with the corner of his eye. Gu Mengmeng smiled and said, “You were so reliable and courageous when you asked me to ‘get up’, why did you become so awkward in just a few days of not seeing?”

Ian said angrily, “Don’t you tell others that I let you on my back! I did it out of the urgent situation that time, in order to… save you. Don’t you mistake me letting you do that to me because… I like you.”

Gu Mengmeng showed an even more spooked expression than Ian and said, “Eh… Say it clearly, what did I do to you?”

Lea hugged Gu Mengmeng’s waist and whispered into her ear, “Going onto someone’s back is a holy ritual. Once a male is willing to let you sit on his back, it means that he is willing to devote himself to you and be your servant for the rest of his life, following your orders. Many males might not be willing to let his female on his back even after mating. If there is one last pride left in front of his female, it would be letting her onto his back. You would understand by looking at Sandy. Although her partners all treat her well, only the first partner Bode is willing to let her onto his back. No matter how much Collin love her, he only hugs her or carry her below his arms, but never on his back.”

Gu Mengmeng tilted her head and asked, “But that day Elvis brought me back to the tribe, he carried me on his back on the way to his cave.”

Lea smiled and poked on Gu Mengmeng’s nose, he said, “That was why I said, nothing is more important than you in Elvis’s heart, including the tribe, his tribesmen, friends… and even himself.”

Gu Mengmeng felt a sweetness in her heart and she turned around to look inside the house. Although she could not see Elvis at that moment, she could picture the pair of affectionate eyes.
