Chapter 232: You Haven’t Heard The Rumor? (3)
The knights of Sefira who lined up on either side of the party’s main gate were almost two meters tall. It was partly because they were from the Order of the Galaxy, the elite knights selected from Sefira’s largest warriors, but partly because they wore thick-soled boots.
Clack, clack.
However, the woman who entered, clicking her heels, was a head taller than the knights. She wore a revealing purple gown, and her long black hair streamed in the wind.
“L-Lord Krona...!”
The guests who recognized her dropped to their knees and lowered their heads at once; they were nobles from the west. Other nobles snapped to attention and also fell to their knees.
“We meet the Lord of the West!”
Krona, the Lord of the West, lifted her purple finger. Then, those who had knelt were suddenly standing back up.
“Huh!”
She hadn’t used telekinesis—the moment itself had rewound, and the kneeling nobles were restored to the instant before they dropped to their knees.
Krona was the Lord of the West and the Space-Time Wizard in her eight-circle.
“Don’t be so stiff. It’s been twenty years since I last attended a party, so it’s a little awkward. Treat me as an ordinary woman today, not a lord, okay?” Krona asked in a soft voice.
“Y-yes, of course!”
