Chapter 272.1
There was a carriage standing for quite some time at some distant place from the front gate of the palace. It was rather far to get a clearer view of the palace, but this was all for the best. Getting a bit nearer would likely arouse the royal guards’ attention and a carriage that stands for too long outside the gates would look suspicious.
Right then, there was a carriage coming out of the palace. Kasser only heaved a sigh of relief after he checked that it had safely passed through the gate. Three knocks on his carriage soon followed. It was a sign from the warrior outside to inform him that the queen’s carriage had departed from the the palace grounds. But it looked like he need not need signal for that.
As a matter of fact, not once had Kasser took his eyes off the front gate. His mind and body were on full alert, his Praz too was on the look out to run straight to the queen in case of any emergency. Kasser’s whole body was surrounded by a blue aura, emanating heat to its surroundings.
But as Kasser closed his eyes, his Praz was sucked back into his body and disappeared by the time he reopened his eyes. He clenched his hand into a fist and opened it after a while, staring down with a faint sense of unfamiliarity.
‘I never knew it was this easy to take full control over it.’
Truly, all the horses outside remained calm the whole time although his Praz manifested in full. This could only mean that he was capable of taking control over his Praz while making sure the presence of it was kept hidden from the surroundings.
He gave two taps to his carriage, and the carriage departed at his signal.

Eugene closed the window curtain after seeing her carriage pass by the front gate. She pulled at her left sleeve, which was rather tight around her wrist, and finally untied it to loosen it up. Soon, a tiny squirrel staying hidden within her sleeve escaped from it in a nimble movement.
