Episode 12

Escape

At that moment, in front of the Grand Temple.

Lady Marais was pacing nervously. The knights were equally uncertain.

It wasn’t right to let the Empress go in like that. It was troubling that the High Priestess had dismissed the maids and knights. Who would protect the Empress if anything happened?

‘Why isn’t she coming out? This is so unnerving…’

At that moment, she spotted someone.

“...!”

She ran towards them with all her might. Her shoes got dirty crossing the garden, but she didn’t care.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty!”

Leto was there, just coming out of a meeting.

“Lady Marais?”

Leto asked, surprised. He immediately sensed something was wrong.

“Where is the Empress? Why are you alone?”

Lady Marais caught her breath, gasping.

“Your Majesty, the Empress went to the Grand Temple.”

“I know that. What I mean is why aren’t you with her?”

“Only the Empress was permitted entry.”

“…She went in alone?”

Lady Marais couldn’t respond. Leto frowned.@@novelbin@@
