Chapter 8: A NEW REUNION (PART 1)
A few minutes earlier, at the wooden cabin...
A black-haired elf with her hair in a long braid, dressed like a maid, stood behind the counter, serving a knight standing before her.
"Don’t lie to us, miss! Tell us where your mistress is, now!" demanded a knight with an irritated expression.
"I’ve already told you, gentlemen, Lady Rimaria is currently away, and I don’t know when she’ll return. If she comes back, I will make sure to pass on your message. So, please leave a note."
"This is a royal decree—it’s urgent! Are you daring to defy the kingdom?"
"Hey, hey, enough already, let it go."
"Bret! Stop that! You’re being rude to Miss Lusserina. Miss, please forgive his behavior; he didn’t mean to offend you."
"Tch."
"In that case, we’ll take our leave. Apologies for disturbing you."
With that, the knights left the wooden cabin. Lusserina sighed in relief once they were gone.
(If not for Lady Rima’s kindness, I wouldn’t bother dealing with them.)
