Chapter 286: Royal audience (2)

Though we were greeted by Sebastien, we weren't brought into the throne room right away.

Instead, we were brought to a waiting room where we were told to rest for a bit before the royal audience.

This did make sense since it wasn't as if someone as important as the king would be waiting for us to arrive for the audience. It should be us who should wait until the king is free to give us this audience.

So we sat down, but relaxing was the last thing that was on our mind.

We were fully tense and focused, as if we were about to head to a battlefield.

Though in a sense, this royal audience was somewhat like heading to the battlefield.

As we were adjusting, there was a sudden knock on the door that caught us off guard.

Sebastien was still in the room with us, though he didn't do anything to serve us. It was almost as if he was just standing here watching over us to make sure that we didn't run.
