Chapter 113: The Tiger Clan

In the carriage on their way back, it was just Arix and Scion. Duke Glendale had gone off to attend to other business right after they left the palace.

Maybe it was because she was going to meet family, but even though the carriage wasn't speeding, Arix felt like the trip was over in no time.

The thought of meeting all those family made Arix a bit nervous. The fear from her last encounter with them still lingered, and now she had to face it again.

Plus, she wasn't sure if her tiger clan relatives would accept her, considering she wasn't from the Empire.

With a mix of nerves and anticipation, they finally arrived at the gate of a grand estate.

"Arix, are you scared?" Scion asked. He noticed the little cub hiding in his arm was peeking out with just her eyes. He remembered how this little cub had been so brave on the battlefield surrounded by insectoids.

Now, heading home, she seemed to have lost her nerve.
