Bab 32: Kind of Cultivation

Mineah woke up a bit late that morning, and to her disappointment, the bed was already empty. Nikolai was already gone from her side.

"Where did he go this time?" she pouted as she got up from the bed. Usually, Nikolai would at least bid her farewell before leaving. In the end, however, she just shrugged and moved on. She could only assume that he probably didn't wake her up to let her sleep more.

Yawning, she was still in the process of shaking off the drowsiness she was feeling from staying up late with Nikolai when she heard someone knocking on her door.

"Your Majesty," a familiar voice called out. "We're here."

Mineah hummed. Recognizing Dani's voice, she replied, "Come in." 

Without another word, Dani and the rest of her shadow maidens came in as she prepared herself for her morning routine. The three of them rushed to do their usual tasks, complete with the briefing that came from their hopefully fruitful information gathering.
