"What are you doing!" he glared angrily.
Fortunately, Alexander was still lost in his own thoughts and did not notice the commotion.
"You're just like an ignorant, stupid donkey."
His teammate first cursed at him, then pulled him aside and whispered:
Are you not married yet?
"What does this have to do with you?" The knight gave him a wary look. "I'm not considering you!"
