Chapter 181: Dealing With The Officials
[Zafira’s POV]
Zafira walked down the stairs leading to the prison, and when she finally arrived, she was greeted by Linlin and Evelyn.
They seemed to be chatting, but when they finally noticed her, they performed curt bows and greeted her.
“All three of them are in there,” Linlin said plainly. “Though I’m surprised you told us to keep these officials alive. They don’t really serve much of a purpose anymore.”
Clearly. Zafira rolled her eyes. “Their purpose is to die by my hand. So if you wouldn’t mind, I’d appreciate it if both of you left.”
“A-About my duties…” Evelyn muttered. “I won’t have to play as the queen again, right?”
Zafira stared at her for a moment before shrugging.
“I can’t promise you anything,” Zafira said. “But I do want you to know that next week, you’ll be acting as the queen again while Rael and I are at the summit. Is that understood?”
“Of course.” Evelyn sighed and fell silent for a few moments. “But don’t you think I should have some lessons? You know… to better prepare myself?”
“Very well…” Zafira slowly nodded. “I’ll be assigning some lessons to Rael as well. You can join him if you’d like.”
A smile tugged at Evelyn’s lips. “Thank you very much. I’ll be taking my leave now.”
