Chapter 32: Your Majesty, I’ve Come to Apologize
"Chief Mobas, today Her Majesty summoned that human. In less than an hour, he was carried out covered in blood. He was in a miserable state, barely clinging to life."
Somewhere in the tribe, a serpent-man soldier reported to Mobas.
"So it seems I was overthinking. Her Majesty had no intention of favoring that brat."
After so much time had passed, Mobas found it hard to believe that the human was still alive.
The prince had already left to undergo his inheritance trial, meaning no one was there to protect that human. Logically speaking, Her Majesty should have executed him by now.
Yet, upon investigating, he discovered that not only was the human still alive, but Elder Baru had even defended him during yesterday's tribal meeting.
Even Her Majesty's words carried a hint of partiality toward the human.
This infuriated Mobas.
He thought that if Her Majesty didn't do anything to that human today, he would sneak into the palace tonight and kill him himself.
Even if Her Majesty found out later, she would never execute him over a mere human.
Hearing this report now, Mobas decided to wait a little longer. Perhaps Her Majesty was still considering the prince and had simply refrained from killing the human for now.
