The room was silent. The usual cheerfulness was nowhere to be heard. The noisy room was quieter than ever.

The lady fell asleep. It was announced a few days ago. She told her subordinates and friends not to worry.

Older demon lords didn't worry that much. They seem to have seen the lady in this state many times before. On the contrary, the youngest demon lord and the lady's master seemed worried. It was a first for them.

The subordinates took turns to look after the lady. She was the most important to them all, but they couldn't neglect their work. The lady assured her that she would be fine, so they had to greet her in optimal condition.

A day, two days. Since the third day, a cocoon of light enveloped the lady, which kept the subordinates from watching her state.

It was dreading.

Third, fourth, fifth day. Many returned to the usual spot, but not everyone. The lady's right hand had to remain beside her. The rest agreed upon this.

Sixth day, seventh day. As sunrise began, the cocoon started to shine brighter. It dissolved in golden threads and a lady with divine appearance was seen.

The divine one opened her eyes. It was mesmerizing to just watch her eyelids open.

"Thank you for waiting for me" she said, with a grace never seen before.

"I, Beretta, am once again at your service, Ramiris-sama" greeted Beretta. For the first time, he got to stand before Ramiris-sama's true appearance. It was kind, compassionate, and... divine.

"I am back" a sweet, majestic voice was heard.

The door opened. The friends and subordinates came to greet their recovered friend.
