章 178: 176: Taking the beast down

Maria glared at the woman at her side in hope that it would relevant to some kind of plot she was not seeing but the princess sounded like she was delusional and serious at the same time. Maria could not help but cradle her head in her hand as soon as she heard those words.

“I don’t need your help. Go back home” Maria almost yelled but held herself back. There was no point in alienating the princess anymore than she had already done. It was not like the princess would be able to go back to her previous lifestyle at all.

But the princess had other ideas and her gaze met Maria’s as their wills clashed. The princess refused to back down and she even fought the magic when it tried to make her obey.
