Bab 71: Too Ambitious and Goal-Oriented

Recalling what happened a while ago, Andry inwardly sighed. Not to mention that Crown Prince Hemeri seemed to really love talking about it!

"Rise."

Upon hearing the order, Andry rose to his feet and looked at the Crown Prince who appeared a bit more serious than before. He waited as he could tell that the Crown Prince had something to say.

"It's the first time today," Hemeri finally said after a moment of silence. "Even if the same thing were to happen, you are not to repeat what you did today."

"But Your Highness -"

"I don't want a second time," Hemeri firmly interrupted. "Is that clear, Andry?"

Once again, Andry recalled that dagger and the trickle of blood.

Would he really be able to stand still if such a scene were to unfold before him again? He didn't think so. Even at the moment, it wasn't easy for him to look at the small wound on the Crown Prince's throat!
