Chương 294: What a Waste

"Your Blessedness," King Marlin smiled as he bowed towards Ena Thun and the man next to her. "Thank you so much for blessing us with your presence."

"It is nothing," Ena said, her eyes landing on the calm Duke behind the King. "Duke Rothley…" she held her hand out towards the Duke for him to kiss the back of her palm. She expected the Duke to fully cooperate knowing that there were other people behind them.

"Your Blessedness…" Lucas greeted.

"Ah, it has been a while."

"It is."

"I expected the Duke to actually join the fight in Rakha…"

"And leave Wugari?"

"Well—"

"Are you saying that my Wugari is less important than Rakha, Your Blessedness?" Lucas asked.

"I— I was not saying that," Ena gave an awkward laugh. "Although, I understand your concern, considering that you now have a bride."
