Kapitel 32: Building relationships

''The other humans were the same though.''

''Her dresses were also not shaped like a ball.''

''She looked the same in my eyes, graceful like those nobles.''

''That Halfling is also lucky to be born as a member of the imperial family.'' In the moving carriage, the envoys of the southern beast tribe were discussing their experiences in the imperial palace.
