Chapter 275: Hit Me With Your Best Shot, Honey [1]
[ZULA]
"Leave, before I kill you," Zaffuto warned in his cruelest tone. It was one that scared even the people around him and yet the stubborn woman just stood there, the sword in her hand as she stared right at him.
"Get on with it then. I’m already sleepy as it is," Liana said nonchalantly like she had no regard for her life.
Many would switch places with her just to be the one the king found trash out at, and yet here she was, determined to push every last button the king had engaged. She was risking everything, and she didn’t care.
She had lost everything before and now, she had nothing left to lose. Her parents had died, thankfully by natural causes and Liana had mourned them. That was the one time she had seen the king be helpless and uncertain.
He had let his guard down when she was at her weakest and that was how she made up her mind that this man could be saved. That she would do whatever it took to get him to acknowledge his humanity.
She would try her very best to let the realm know that beneath the monster they had been used to, there was an actual person who could fly too. Perhaps it was a long shot, but Liana was not going to back down.
"You really are asking for it, aren’t you?" Zaffuto said as he walked towards her, daring her to close the distance between them, something that Liana Hinata didn’t perceive as a threat.
To her, this was just another day of the king being the king, only that she didn’t have the patience to wait for him to finish throwing his tantrums.
