Kapitel 57: 56: Conflicting decision

Princess Neah had a lot of expectations when she imagined her eventual reunion with Maria. There should have been tears, confessions, and maybe even hugs to compensate for all the lost time.

Instead, what Neah got was a one-way shout match as her prey ran away from her. They had only been able to escape because Neah had been too shocked to respond in time.

The rudeness of Maria’s voice and the words themselves had served to create a shock factor so strong that it had left her rooted in her place. And without her input, none of her soldiers had taken the initiative to attack them as well.

They all stood shocked at her said, having heard that voice as well. But unlike Neah, they were not aware that the shouter was the oracle herself.

“You were aware that she was here and acting on her own. You were not shocked at that shout” Princess Neah turned toward Howl with angry eyes. This bitch had known about her Maria and had chosen to say nothing.
