Gratitude because I came to her rescue when she didn't want to let this guy kiss her hand but decided to oblige him because she was guided by etiquette.
Surprised and annoyed because I called her my woman.
Frightened because I more or less told a mithril ranked adventurer to fuck off.
And I can even see a tinge swelling pride in her eyes; not many men would be brave enough to stand up and oppose a person this much stronger than themselves.
Yeah, this action of mine is closer to stupidity than bravery, I know.
But I just couldn't help myself. My father always told me that there are times when a man has to stand up for his beliefs, no matter the situation.
Well, it was absolutely necessary this time, as far as I'm concerned.
Blossom also notices the unexpected tension and moves to grab her dagger.
