Chapter 42
“Hahahahaha!”
The Tower Master laughed heartily.
Then he linked arms with the sulky-looking Minister of Justice and pulled him up.
“Come, Minister of Justice! Quickly return to the work you were doing! I interrupted you, didn’t I? Huh? Hahahaha! I’ll escort you back to where you belong!”
Now that I thought about it, the Minister of Justice had come here because of the Tower Master’s unauthorized intrusion in the first place.
Everyone had just forgotten about that.
The Tower Master, all excited, easily lifted the Minister of Justice. He really was an old man with monstrous strength.
“I’ll take this fellow back for a moment! And Namia Roafi...... no, Minister of the Scroll Department, I have a bit more business with you! Wait just a little!”
Before the Minister of Justice could even say anything, the Tower Master slung him over his shoulder and left the Empress’s room.
The only ones left were us and the aides.
“Whew.”
The Emperor let out a shallow sigh as he tightly held the Empress’s hand.
