"Thank you for your concern. I will be sure to do so and keep it in mind." Mila bowed slightly going around the little lodge to see where the entire place was, still being able to see the shapes and furniture around was enough for her. Seeing the kitchen with pots and spoons, dining room with a large table and chairs, a washroom with the bathtub and towels, and more along the way. 'So, this place can be very comfortable and well use for recuperating.' Seeing how a little lodge house could be quite comfortable to be in.
"I will be leaving soon. If you go outside then do not go too far from this lodge. This place resides along a forest where you can still be found if you are not careful." Eulalius informed her but soon left with Mila remaining inside the lodge with only herself to keep company.
'Hm, are most men like this nowadays.' Mila could not help, but see how men could be quite hard to communicate with. 'I wonder why I did not meet men like them in the past.' Thinking about how her ex-husband was quite the social butterfly only when he needed to be. 'I can't believe that I was wooed by such false words back then.' Mila hoped that she would not see him in this life, but she had no clue since the world was a small place.

"Your majesty, it seems as though I have lost the individual in a sudden disturbance while in battle. She should not be overlooked easily. Her mana and abilities are far more extraordinary than one thinks. She can be of great use to us if we can manipulate her onto our side." Nerva kept his smile while bowing to the Mireraweth emperor before him.
"How could you have lost them in that whole fight!? There were so many of you that you still lost her in the whole chase!!! She is making fun of us!!! Like h*ll she will join us!!! I'll make sure that she suffers to death before she could even be in this place like us! Someone like her would never belong there, to begin with!!!" The Mireraweth emperor angrily felt like all the people below him were looking down at him ever since he became crippled with three good limbs left to use. "Where did you last fight with her?" The emperor kept his back towards Nerva who knew that he was angry. He wanted to see if he could send more of his men to track down the individual who had ruined him.
"It was in the town that currently resides with the Mireraweth palace. My men can show you where some of her trace if some were left behind. We haven't found her for some time, just to inform you ahead. We have been struggling to find any traces at all with blood samples since slimes appeared there in large groups to rid of it before we could take action." Nerva grinned looking down since he was quite sure he had hit the woman. He only regretted that he didn't leave some kind of spell to track her down. The slimes had gotten in his way which prevented his chance to find any clues about what her real identity was. Not only that, she had managed to get away due to a sudden light that blinded every man and woman of his that did not see a thing, not even himself.
"Make sure no one leaves this kingdom in the meantime. Also, I want you to keep her alive when you catch her. No one is allowed to do anything to her. I want to personally handle her myself for what she's done to me. I want to make her beg for me to kill her." The emperor angrily remembered the time that she had ruined it all from the Mireraweth kingdom's war than to losing his right hand and arm. Being seen as nothing more than a useless emperor who can not handle his people or officials who stood beside him.
"I will be sure to find her for you. You have my words." Nerva left after, but deep inside he wasn't going to let the woman get easily killed since he had his reasons still for using her. 'She would be a waste if no one managed her well. She is like an endless mana stone.' Seeing how there was so much mana that she held, yet she did not use any of it for anything.

"Leo, are you alright?" Luce entered Leo's office seeing how he had been up for countless nights. He had an expression that showed concern along with a lack of sleep for the past few days. "You've been up for countless nights. I'm worried that you are putting too much stress onto yourself." Luce laid her palm onto Leo's shoulder as he held her hand, feeling great comfort in it.
