Princess Helena meekly shook her head, "No, please. I was just a little surprised to see that Princess Na'im associates with the human lords. After what happened, I thought everything would still be at a crossroads."
"Human Lord?" she sniggered, looking at Hao Xuan from the corner of her eye, "Nothing that meager..." she mumbled under her breath but both the Demihuman Princesses heard her, exchanging surprised glances with one another.
He wasn't someone from the human royalty?! But then what was his background that he could talk to the Barbarian princess in that tone of voice?
Princess Helena was quite elated inwardly seeing as the relationship between Hao Xuan and the barbarian wasn't as rock-solid as she originally thought. If he truly was the one from the prophecy, he needed to be on their side no matter what.
