Chapter 195: Travel (1)
TL/ED – Miso
Returning to the Empire did not earn me a triumphant general’s welcome.
That was because the moment I regained consciousness, Dersia opened a door leading straight to the Imperial Palace, and specifically to Sharmia’s chambers.
“Ah, Jern, it seems you’ve come to.”
Perhaps she had been informed ahead of time, because despite the late hour, Sharmia greeted me courteously, dressed in formal attire.
“I was shocked to hear you were badly injured. I’m so relieved you made it back safely…”
“I’m perfectly fine. Master gave me something like treatment, if you could call it that…”
Perhaps because the actual combat time had been fairly short, my wounds hadn’t opened up too badly.
“Also, there’s something I’d like to show Master. I found some chunks of ice in the Deep Sea.”
