17 Chapter 17: Silence Her with a Kiss

“Injured? Me? HAH!" Gale snorted. He lifted his chin arrogantly and claimed, “There is nobody stronger than me in this world. A mere dozens of weak beastmen won't be able

to scathe me."

"But..." Swan lowered her head. She still noticed the grimace on his face, as if he was truly enduring a lot of pain.

However, it was true that he was the strongest, especially when she witnessed that giant wolf who leaped into the palace's yard.

Gale had been watching her reaction the whole time, and he saw that she looked hurt and sad.

"Mm... I'm sorry..." Swan muttered. "I thought that you were enduring a lot of pain. Your face says it. But maybe I'm just overthinking."

Gale's arrogant smirk quickly vanished and he claimed, "I'm not in pain. Nothing in this

Gale went silent after that. He kept staring at the woman in his embrace who looked at him with earnestness in her eyes as if it was a life-and-death situation for her.

His lips thinned as he began to wonder if this woman understood what she was talking about, or maybe she was just a sheltered princess wearing rose-tinted glasses.
