Chapter 692: At Odds

"Whatever...human trash...what did I expect from a filthy halfling," Princess Inara mumbled loudly.

Uri who was still being held back by Lady Jiang doubled his efforts upon hearing the remark and tried to struggle free but Lady Jiang hugged him even tighter.

"Shh, it's okay little brother, they are just words, they won't hurt me."

Uri looked up and saw Lady Jiang's smiling face. But even though she was saying that it didn't bother her, her eyes were already wet and Uri could see it clearly.

He stopped struggling and relaxed his body. Lady Jiang let him go while Princess Inara jumped down to the valley floor to help the two feline demihuman guards deal with the rest of the threadworm controlled creatures.

Uri's brow was creased and he appeared to be outraged on Lady Jiang's behalf, even though she didn't do anything herself.

Sour-faced, Uri made faces at the Princess's back while talking in a low voice.
