บท 527: Always Ready

(From Ruby's Perspective)

"How is she now?" Luc asked as the King came to the magic tower to leave his son with us. 

When Her Highness was working too hard without getting rest, all of us got very anxious for her. Luc told me what he had seen that one day. I got way too worried and tried to find ways how to make her rest. However, in the end, I knew I could do nothing. Neither could Luc. 

I had seen how she acted during the war. She was not herself. And she was changing. She was not the person who married His Majesty as the innocent and insecure woman who came from a very humble background. She was now the Queen and one of the most powerful dark mages ever. She knew her worth very well and acted like her position. It was all good. But I was afraid she was pushing herself too far. She was expecting too many things from herself, even when her loved ones did not, her husband did not. 

"She is better now. She gets enough rest," His Highness said.
