139: The node

"Don't talk about things you have no idea about. I cannot stand it when you all talk like you know me" the princess whispered as she stood over the unconscious body with a hard expression on her face. Her eyes held a ferocity Maria had seldomly seen in seasoned war veterans and she did not envy the guard.

But she was very much the princess who looked to be in quite a foul mood now. She had not expected to be faced with such a problem when she had agreed to team up with the mild princess.

Actually, Maria had never even thought the gentle princess to be capable of knocking out a guard so brutally and with her bare hands as well. It was borderline attractive but also scary. Luckily for the princess, Maria had seen worse before so she was not afraid.
