Chapter 118: 116: Tower defence

"You alright? You look stressed out. Maybe you should take a break" blue eyes blinked up to look at the old court advisor in front of her. He looked concerned but not overly so. That meant that the damage Neah sustained was not heavy. A good thing indeed.

"It's alright. I just lack a little sleep but I'll recover" the princess waved off the concern her royal advisor showed her. She had too much work to do anyway. The recent attacks on the villages had left a lot to be done from their side.

Not to mention, there was a lack of understanding in the ruling noble families. Most of them were too proud to allow 'normal people' to rule over and there had been too much unrest as a result. Every day there was a new report of a clash happening somewhere.

Not to mention, the worst of all - deaths. Both nobles and common people had been dying left and right too frequently to be a coincidence. And ever since Lady Clement's death, the incidents had just kept on happening.
