Actually, Helen hoped that the man would not hear her say thank you.
It was a trivial thing, and she didn’t want him to know that she was touched by every little thing.
She hoped that the man would see her a bright and warm princess.
“Here we are.”
The man called Helen, as if they had arrived somewhere.
“It’s the door.”
It was on the opposite side of the door Helen had come in.
“Perhaps this is closer to the Emperor’s Lion Palace.”
“Lion’s Palace?”
“Oh, I mean the main palace. It’s the palace where the emperor resides.”
“Ah… I think the emperor locked me up.”
“Huh…!”
“Why are you so surprised?”
The man said nonchalantly.
He didn’t even seem to know what he had done wrong.
“If the others hear, you will be punished for insulting the emperor.”
The man’s ears hurt from Helen’s nag.
“This man is really…!”
“Don’t give me that headache, just look at this.”
The man tugged on Helen’s arm, making her move a little closer to him.
Helen stood next to the man and stared at him.
He reached out to grab the door handle.
As soon as his hand touched the door handle, there was a strong spark and the wind blew.
The wind even sent the books stuck in the bookshelf flying.
‘So that’s why he kept me close.’
The man gripped Helen tightly with his right hand.
Her hair fluttered as she shook.
“Ugh.”
Helen heard a groan sound.
She saw now that his left hand was cramping as it gripped the door with each flash of light.
