Kingdom Knights (1)

The vice-general was displeased when he heard the Kingdom Knights mocking her. However, with his lowly status, he could not quarrel with the Kingdom Knights, so he had no choice but to respond humbly.

"Say, Toby, don't you think she looks rather weird? She doesn't look like us and has black hair and those black eyes… um… Why do I feel she looks like the black witches in stories?" Another Kingdom Knight said jeeringly as he sized up Ye Qingtang.

"Ah… If she's really a black witch, then she might be useful. But not every black-haired and dark-eyed girl is a black witch. As far as I know, black witches are all very tall, not like… this short and skinny fellow," Toby said mockingly.

When the King was talking to Ye Qingtang in the great hall, they had heard some of what Ye Qingtang had done in the border town. However, they felt that she had not done anything to deserve such a great reward.
