章 52: Concerned Friend

Under the fully bloomed moon in the night sky, Kaisen and his friends once again found themselves dining with the queen.

However, the princess was notably absent, as she was undergoing medical treatments.

Alice and Llyod were unaware of the princess's condition, assuming she was perfectly normal based on their interactions with her during the previous night's dinner.

The duo found it all confusing.

They remembered the princess being there last night, sitting at the table just fine.

So her absence now was a bit weird.

But they didn't dare ask about it, 'cause that'd be nosy and disrespectful to the queen and the princess's privacy.

So they just kept quiet and ate their dinner, trying not to think too much about it.

In truth, Kaisen secretly reveled in the princess's absence.

He knew that even if she didn't outright mock him, she'd find some way to express her disdain—whether through her eyes, her mouth, or her hands.
