Ever since Grand Duchess Amanda has taken up the mantle of the head knight, she had never been treated as if she was useless or weak.
In fact, the expectations that had been piled on her shoulder had increased even more compared to before.
'And yet, here I am….being treated like an invalid who can't take care of herself. I should feel humiliated…so why do I feel so good?'
The Head Knight lay in her tent, staring up at the fabric above her. Sleep refused to come.
No matter how much she shifted, no matter how much she closed her eyes, her conversation with Kyle Armstrong kept replaying in her mind.
At first, she had thought he was just another arrogant noble, looking down on her because of her gender. But the way he spoke—so casual, confident, indifferent—made her unsure.
'Does he really not care that I'm a woman?'
If so, then why did she still feel like he was underestimating her?
Was it because she was female? Or… did he simply think that he was stronger than her?
