章 174: Three Little Words

"MISS LUNA!" Tilly called the witch in a panic when she just appeared out of nowhere in the middle of her office. As soon as she saw that Luna was alone, she already knew that her plain failed. His Holiness…

"My deepest apologies, Lady Nystrom," Luna said in a shaking voice. Then, she kneeled and bowed to her until her forehead almost hit the floor. "I was able to bring the saint out of the prayer room. But it seemed like the emperor put up a stronger barrier around the temple. Then, the Golden Tiger came." Her shoulders started to shake as her voice cracked. "His Holiness asked me to leave. He stayed behind to stop the Golden Tiger from attacking me."

Her heart broke for the witch.

This was the first time that Luna broke down in tears ever since the first day that she met her.
