...38...

JAELE👧

Meanwhile, back at the Linamine Empire, the Royal Physician was just finished with tending to the Lady's wounds.

He was packing up his tools into his box while Hyeera was trying to coerce her Lady who was now awake to drink her medicine.

They were the only ones who were in the royal bedroom.

The Physician's assistant was outside the bedroom, having a chat with the Little Prince.

And it was undoubtedly about the lady who was sick.

Vura sat down at the other side with Xiera, also talking about their sick lady.

Xiera was trying to see if she could pry anything, almost anything related to the secret they were keeping away from her out of her colleague.

But, though she was subtle, Vura who didn't seem to catch up with what she was trying to do still revealed about nothing that she knew nothing about to her.

She was therefore frustrated into stopping her inquisition.

The Royal Physician soon came out of the bedroom just as she was preparing to storm off frustratedly.

He had his box of medical tools and supplies in his hands.

They both watched as he went to the Little Prince and his assistant.

They stood and went to him, both having the same thing on their minds, their lady's well-being.

'My Lord,' the Royal Physician said to the Little Prince who nodded an acknowledgement.

'Is she fine now?' he simply asked the man who nodded.

He sighed in relief at the answer.

The state that she was in when the emperor returned really meant a lot to him at this point.

The better she looked the lesser the extent of his wrath.

'She is quite okay now My Lord. She will get much more better if she drinks the medicine I prescribed along with the vitality tonic. It's sedated but no one should tell her that lest she makes a fuss over it,' he advised him.

The little prince quirked his brow with a knowing look.

'Ah, I see.'

'It will aid her in resting well. I know that the emperor's woman is stubborn. She might not listen to any of you that is why I simply put sedatives into the medicine.'

They all nodded.

'How wise of you,' the royal physician's assistant said.

Though it was a praise, it didn't sound anything like that coming from his black and blue long haired assistant.

'Aiya! I do want her properly recovered before the Emperor's return," he said.

They agreed with him.

"Her wounds may not be so nice looking even till then. It was indeed infiltrated by Xhanai poison as the lady's aide had diagnosed," he added.
