"I didn't know you were so poor that you were buying this slave for profit. Oh, you poor child," Estelia retorted, no less feisty than the Dragon Princess.
She didn't forget to taunt the girl who was trying to portray it as her victory. "I simply bought him because I felt like it, not to profit from him. It's truly sad that you have to resort to the slave trade to earn money."
"If I knew that you were in such a situation, I might have let you take him. My bad." Estelia rested a leg over the other, as she comfortably moved back on her chair like a queen.
"You!" The Dragon Princess clenched her small fists, hearing the insult hidden in those words.
She had simply said that she was giving up because she didn't think the slave was worth it, but her words were twisted to make it sound as if she was trying to buy a slave for profit, like someone desperate for money.
