Book 15.5: Chapter 3
“A vacation?” I asked.
“Yes. Or do you not want to let me have a vacation?” asked Luna.
I nodded and then placed down my cup of tea. I touched my chin and said, “Yes, mm, you’re right… You should have a vacation to rest… You have one year and ten days’ worth of vacation time… But I don’t know why you chose to take a vacation now all of a sudden.”
It was fine for Luna to have a vacation. I didn’t think it’d be good for her health if she continued working all the time, either. It was just that I didn’t know why then, when it wasn’t a festival or her birthday.
My expression read, “Why does Luna want to take a vacation now? Could it be that she wants to go on a holiday or have I made a mistake somewhere and she’s angry?”
Luna softly giggled. She explained, “You do not need to worry, Your Majesty. I am not planning anything. I just want to have a break. It will not be for long. I will be back after three days. I just want to go to Troy City to soak in the hot springs and have a rest.”
Nier looked at Luna then turned away without saying anything. Nier seemed to be a little displeased. Lucia, on the other hand, was excited. She then looked to me and exclaimed, “Your Highness! I want to go the hot springs, too! I really want to go, too.”
I apologetically laughed: “You want to go with Luna, then? If you want to go with me, you’ll have to wait until winter.”
Lucia looked at Nier. Nier looked back at Lucia with eyes brimming with hope. Nier eagerly waved her hand: “Go, go. You really want to go to the hot springs, don’t you? Luna is going, as well, so you might as well go with her. It’s fine. I’ll take care of Nona and Vera for you. Go, go.”
