Bab 377: The Offer

"You have convinced me as to the origins of your unconventional wisdom, as well as your knowledge of our proper etiquette." Aurora spoke, as she stared at me with sparked interest.

"If you don't mind, would you be willing to show me the memoir you mentioned?"

"Oh? Is the Queen also interested in our Great Sage, Lewis Griffith?" I smiled, feigning innocence.

"Well… something like that." She responded with a strained smile.

'Yeah, right! You never really liked me.' I remained smiling.

"Then, I will ensure to bring it the next time I pay you a visit and hopefully we would be allies by then. Hahaha."

"Hahaha. We shall see, won't we?" Aurora replied with a strained laugh.

'Should I tease her a little more?'

"There was mention of you in the Memoir, your Majesty. It seemed Lewis Griffith knew you well when he was still alive. Were you perchance close?"

I could see veins appearing on her head.

"Well, you could say that…" She seemed to be struggling to keep her lips in position.
