Chapter 295 (Hidden, Title at the bottom of the chapter)

Seeing the resigned expression on Mrazivý's face, Marcus grabbed her by the shoulders and brought her face close to his and said, "I do not care what you say. I am going to help you out no matter what, and there is nothing you can do about it. I do not care if I have to work in the forges like a slave, or risk life and limb killing dangerous beasts. I am not going to let you fall into to despair so snap out of it."

Marcus then released Mrazivý's shoulders and slapped her in the face.

He could not bear to see the depressed look on her face, especially when she was normally quite happy and proud.

Reaching her hand up to her face Mrazivý touched her red and tender cheek slowly as if she could not believe what had happened was real.

No one had ever slapped her before and the sting on her cheek made her begin to get angry.

See then looked at Marcus with fury in her eyes, stood up, and started shouting at him.
