Confrontation
-----
Brace had seen the lizardmen speak, he was a guard of the village and a good-hearted man like Hector, he knew about his friend and the love he had on his childhood, but never thought he would reencounter her right here in front of him… He was really seeing her with him, she really came back. He always made fun of him for still loving a lizardman, a girl that wasn't even of his race… but it wasn't rare for people of different races to fall for each other, although it was less common due to cultural and appearance differences, he himself had married a wolf beast-kin girl, and his two kids were half-beast-kin. He stepped forward as he saw the sect disciples argue…
"But that doesn't change a thing!"
"Yeah, what if you try to betray us or something?"
"Lizardmen cannot be trusted."
"You're all monsters, go away!"
"Begone before we slay you! You would fetch a good price if we sold your mana cores…"
