Kapitel 179: More the better

Upon arriving at the Storm Castle, Raylen was the first to disembark, followed by Emily, whose eyes drank in the vastness and towering presence of the place that would be her temporary residence. A maid, who appeared older than her own mother, awaited them at the entrance. 

"Welcome back home, Master Raylen," the maid greeted with a respectful bow, and it was only when she raised her head that Emily noticed a shadow beneath the woman's eyes. The maid offered her a polite bow, and Emily reciprocated in kind. 

"Princess, allow me to introduce you. This is Lauren De Maitree, the head of the servants here. She will be the one to assist you during your stay at Storm Castle." Raylen addressed Emily before shifting his gaze towards the woman. "Lauren, this is Princess Emily Blackthorn, who will be staying here with us until the conclusion of the gathering."
