Bab 279: Keywords

What?!

The Queen is getting dethroned?!!

But that is impossible?!!!

Such questions kept repeating themselves in Aldrich's mind. The one "What" he had shouted from the shock he had received made him remember why he hadn't spoken out loud so far.

A terrifying bolt of lightning coursed through his entire body, but this lightning was the pain caused by the sudden motion of Aldrich's muscles. Even after he became motionless to bear the pain, and almost seemed petrified, Aldrich didn't stop thinking of those questions.

To someone else, it would have made no sense why Aldrich had asked nothing related to the Queen from Meuric. Instead of letting Meuric go to fetch dinner, Aldrich should have asked about the matters related to Queen first. But in these trains of thoughts, one must not forget that it wasn't Barren Earth anymore, and Queen wasn't a symbolic word and title.
