Capítulo 271: Rules of Engagement

It was clear the Nymph and the Serpent clan had a complicated history – she had every right to be angry, and the grieving and helpless look on her tiny face made her all the more sympathetic to me.

But still, weren't her priorities a little backwards?

She should be trying to kill that serpent for taking one of her daughters away, not because of me.

And no, I wasn't planning on becoming anyone's lover – not even hers.

|[I think you're mistaken about us…]| I started to say, but the Nymph who was sitting on my curls, reached out to grab the sides of my head, staring intently into my eyes.

[Don't worry, I will protect you and your children from danger.] She confidently implored. [There's no need for you to seek them.]

Er…that was nice I guess, but why was she getting so intense all of a sudden.

Did she think I was going to get stolen away like her daughter was?
