At Colin's command, a squadron of the Blood Knight Army surrounded the queen's bedchamber, not allowing a drop of water to leak out.
In the shadows, the Blood Shadow Guard was also stationed, making sure that Isa's delivery would not be disturbed by anything from the outside world.
Three on-call female doctors were called in, and a group of well-trained maids began to work immediately. They were either boiling water or sterilising clothes, with everything being carried out nervously yet systematically.
However, amidst all this bustle, Colin and Duke Miller were unable to lend a hand and could only stand around aimlessly outside the delivery room.
Duke Miller paced back and forth restlessly, glancing at Colin's expression from time to time. He wanted to say something but whenever he saw Colin's unmoved face, he swallowed his words.
