Chapter 313: Ruthless Liviera
It wasn’t only Levin who was shocked to see Liviera in front of them; it was even more so for the royal guards who were with them. They almost forgot how to greet a royal as they were dumbstruck by this unexpected event.
"Y-Your—" Before they finished the salute, Liviera lifted his hand in front of them and stopped them immediately.
He shook his head and reminded them.
"There’s no need for that. We’re all on the same mission; act as normal as you can."
This was easier than done, but Liviera made sense. They were on an important mission after all, and they couldn’t afford to be distracted. It was only that, even for these elite royal guards, knowing that the mother empress was with them, they were finding it hard to adapt.
Levin stood like a statue, his breathing slowing down considerably as though he was afraid that his presence might become a nuisance for the empress. Their last meeting was indeed unpleasant, but Levin could understand him.
His parents were the ones at fault, and the empress had the right to get mad.
He was getting nervous that Levin was hesitating if he should greet him, as this would put this mission in jeopardy instead because of his presence.
Levin couldn’t understand just why the person he was supposed to get along with on this mission was the mother empress? He couldn’t comprehend just what the emperor was thinking!
"Levin..." At this call, Levin immediately snapped out of these thoughts and stood up straight.
"Y-Yes... Your Majesty." There was a hint of anxiety in his whole being; it was something that was rarely seen by him in his prime, but recently, it was becoming a common sight.
