Chapter 703: Duke Ukhan [1]

"Good job, Jin."

"No problem."

The black spike in the distance slowly retreated into the ground. 

I sighed in relief when I saw the Duchess avoid the ambush. I had noticed that something was happening around me during the time that she was dealing with the mammoth. It was for this reason that I didn't participate in the event.

When I realized what was happening, I had Jin and the others stop and had them shift their attention toward the Duchess. If there was anyone who would be the target of an ambush here, it'd be her.

The decision proved to be the correct one, as Jin was able to save her in the nick of time.

Staring at the situation, my mind began to race, and I looked at Jin. I then placed my hand over his shoulder and looked at him seriously. 

"Jin." 

"What?" 

He turned to look at me. His eyes filled with vigilance. 

'Am I that untrustworthy?'
