"What did you say?" Aria taunted. Of course, she heard her loud and clear. She just wanted to torment Swan longer until she gave up fighting in the end. She relished seeing Swan on the verge of despair.
The Head Butler in the Palace of Holy Achate said she shouldn't bully Swan too much because nobody knows when Swan would snap and struggle to fight back.
But Aria didn't think that Swan could fight back.
Swan had been conditioned to accept the bullying no matter what happened.
"Repeat it, you whore. Let me hear what you said just now."
Swan clenched her fist. She had been holding her rage for a long time, and she didn't want to bow down without a fight.
After she learned that she, too, could have a good life outside of the Holy Achate Palace with Gale, Swan realized that she should fight more if she didn't want to be stomped on for the rest of her life.
Thus, she repeated her words, but louder this time, "Don't you dare touch my hair!"
