Chương 162: Vulgar Beasts

Ailsa sat silently on Ryu's shoulder as though his thoughts had nothing to do with her. Her ruby-like eyes sparkled, lost in their own world. Ryu could only inwardly sigh. He had never lost a battle of words in this life or his last, but to think he would lose to someone who said no words at all.
