Bab 78: Disguised Punishment

“For your outstanding service, I believe that it is only fair that you receive a reward. They say that being given opportunities to shine will help you further progress and I think that I have the perfect opportunity for you,” the lady said with a smile that did not quite reach her eyes.

“A long time ago, a certain noble family discovered a natural spring within the grounds of the palace. They then built a large and luxurious bathhouse for members of the royal family and other nobles to enjoy the healing properties of the water.
