Chapter 293:
“What’s wrong with you today? Why are you so absent-minded?”
In the small office of the administrative department of Crimson Citadel, which Miriam had just moved into, Murphy frowned at the distracted Baroness of Morland, who had come to discuss the settlement of the prisoners and Northern ruffian soldiers about to return to Transia:
“Are you too tired these days? Or did the recent siege disturb your mind? I see your complexion is poor, why don’t I give you a couple days off?
Or should we ask Grandma Marianne to perform a calming ritual for you?”
“It’s nothing, I just… feel a bit anxious today,”
Miriam rubbed her brow, somewhat puzzled. The red-haired girl who always strived to maintain a state of vigor said:
“It’s as if something has happened, but I can’t tell if it’s related to me or not. It’s hard to describe that feeling. You don’t need to worry.
I’ll go to Avalon Cathedral for a calming ritual after work.”
“That’s good. You are now the core of Transia’s entire ruling system. In terms of importance, you’re even more crucial than me as the lord.”
