Chapter 84: Ch 84: The empress's tea party [pt2]

Meria entered the tea room of the previous empress with a tense body. He was still determining if he should be here as the Saintess or not.

He was also sure that the previous empress recognized Eric, so she had invited them to the tea party.

"Guards, I will be putting up a security barrier around my tea party room, so do not be alarmed if you cannot reach me for some time. Do not try to break the barrier down."

The previous empress ordered, causing the guards to tense.

"Your Highness, we cannot do that. Your safety is our responsibility. What if something happens and-"

"So, not only are you all going against my words, but you are also accusing the Saintess of trying to cause me harm? Should I take these words as a confession?"

The previous empress asked seriously, and the guard folded like wet paper.

"N-No! Of course not! Miss, I was just joking. Of course, you should do what you want to."
