Chapter 66

I held Luna tightly in my embrace, and she tightly grabbed onto my shoulders . She leaned on my chest and affectionately looked at me . I lowered my head and kissed her lips . In a slightly concerned voice, I asked, “Luna, my body… is now covered in scales . How does it feel to hug me? Is it slippery? Is it disgusting?”



Luna clasped my face and, with a smile, said, “The scales do feel different to your skin in the past; however, Your Majesty, you do not need to mind it . Although the scales are slightly slippery to the touch, your body is still as warm and gentle . Your Majesty, you are still as warm and gentle as before despite having scales cover your body, so there is no need to worry . ”

I nodded . I took hold of her hand and placed it on my face . She gently ran her fingers along my face . Her gaze was incredibly tender . Some say one must lose something before they learn to cherish it . I’d say, you particularly cherish it after you’ve lost it once .

We found each other again after losing each other, so we held onto each other tightly and were very reluctant to let go . Luna gently and carefully ran her fingers across my face . She caressed my face as though she wanted to remember every little detail of my face .

I pressed my hand firmly on Luna’s hand and apologised to her in a soft voice: “Sorry . Sorry, Luna, sorry… I’m sincerely sorry… I shouldn’t have let you go out that night… I shouldn’t have let you go… I should’ve had a better idea . There had to have been one… You have suffered too much… You have honestly suffered far too much…”

Luna didn’t let me finish . She hugged me and kissed my lips . I lingered for a moment before closing my eyes and responding to her kiss . Her kiss was gentle and besotting as it always was . Luna knew very well where I was most sensitive, so I really enjoyed the feeling . The two of us reluctantly separated . Luna touched my lips and softly giggled: “It is all right, Your Majesty . It is all right . I am your personal servant . Protecting you is my duty . Moreover, I love you . I would protect even if I was not your personal servant, so there is no need for your to apologise . I am glad you are still alive . That is the greatest consolation to me . ”



I couldn’t bring out a smile . I tightly held her hand and, in a quiet voice, said, “Life without you was so painful, Luna . It was honestly too painful… I don’t know how many tears I shed for you . I have always hoped for you to return all this time . Luna, I love you . I love you . I never got myself a new personal servant after your departure . Never . ”

Luna was startled . She then pinched my nose with a smile: “As your mistress, I never thought I would see a moment where you are so loyal . I am very touched . I am sincerely very touched . Your Majesty, if it is possible and if you still trust me, I am willing to continue being your personal servant!”

I touched her face and gave her an absolutely serious nod: “Of course, of course, my Luna . You’re my personal servant . You always will be . You always will be my personal servant no matter when . You’re my only personal servant . Always . ”

Luna responded with a blissful smile . She leaned onto my chest and shuffled around: “Tell me your story, Your Majesty . We are still a long way away from the place you mentioned, right? Please tell me what happened during my absence . I see that your gaze is completely different to the past . Lots of things must have happened after I left . Your Majesty, please… tell me about it . ”

“Uhm . ” I nodded .

There were some things I couldn’t tell Luna . I couldn’t tell her how many people I killed after her death . I couldn’t tell her how many things, which shouldn’t have been done, I did . I told her relatively light-hearted and glorious things . After all, there were some things I wasn’t willing to recall . I killed lots of people after she died, which included both anthropoids of the North and humans .



The White Deer King snorted as an expression of annoyance . However, I tapped her belly, so she didn’t continue complaining . I was so happy on the White Deer King’s back, so I didn’t want to be disturbed . The White Deer King turned around in a somewhat angry manner; she, however, didn’t say anything upon seeing Luna . Instead, she revealed a “I’ll settle the score with you when we get back” look and then turned back to continue going forward .

The White Deer King wasn’t fast, as I had Luna with me . I wasn’t in any rush, though . I had recovered . Luna was in my arms, too; therefore, I had nothing to rush for…


I cut myself off: “Wait… I think I do… If my three moms fight it out in the North now, I’m going to have a serious issue on my hands . I’m not in a rush to return right now, though . I’m sure it’ll be fine with Freya there . Freya previously erred, but she shouldn’t this time . ”

I had Luna in my embrace . Overhead was the warm and comfortable sunlight . Occasionally, a clear and refreshing breeze would blow the natural scent of leaves and grass over . The White Deer King stepped over the floor of dead leaves to take me and Luna home . We travelled at a relaxed pace . Luna wore such a bright smile in my arms . It was much warmer than the sun . My purpose in life was her bright smile .

Imperial Palace in the North…

Freya took in a deep breath . She kept her eyes on the small can in her hand as she opened it . While Freya could be considered a genius young girl – at least that was how Troy and the other people around him evaluate her, including Castell, who was full of praise for her – who could easily handle anything, she wasn’t good at daily living tasks . She tried making soup many times, and only managed to make one barely edible after many failures .

She looked at the door in front of her and hesitated for a long time as she deliberated to herself . She tried her best to mentally prepare herself . She bit down on her lip and rehearsed in her mind what she should say . She then earnestly looked at the door and knocked on it .

Gerald opened up looked at Freya with a hint of puzzlement . She found herself struggling to find the words . She spent a long time thinking about what to say, but she was tongue-tied and speechless when facing him .

Gerald hadn’t been on duty for some time due to his injury . He was recuperating in his room and under house arrest, because they wanted to keep the fact Freya was the one who hurt him under wraps . A professional doctor came to treat him daily and deliver food . Gerald didn’t complain . He actually considered it a holiday as opposed to being wounded by his master he was devoted to . He needed some time to regain his composure .

Gerald didn’t know if that was what she intended, since she was way too crazy at the time . However, he was positive he made the right choice . Gerald was honestly upset about being wounded when he did the right thing; not to mention it was Freya who hurt him .

“Ah… Miss Freya…” Gerald felt awkward .

Freya took in a deep breath . She then shut her eyes tightly . She then spoke at an extremely fast pace, emphasising her words as though she was speaking to a wall, “Sorry, Gerald . I admit that what I previously did was wrong I admit that you were completely right everything I did was too crazy too stupid, and I wounded you, which has made me suffer, so sorry, Gerald, I shouldn’t have done that . I shouldn’t have hurt you, so I made this soup that can speed up your recovery . If you are willing to forgive me and continue being my bodyguard, then please drink this soup . ”

Freya gave her speech in one breath similarly to a machine gun . Her rapid apology was her true feelings . That was her apology . Gerald looked at her with a dumbfounded look . Freya carried the can in her hands . Her small hands were turning red due to the heat of the can . He grabbed the can and saw many wounds on her fingers .

He softly chuckled . Freya looked embarrassed, but her apology was sincere . She acted fierce on the surface, but she was truly apologetic and felt guilty . Gerald suddenly wanted to scrub her head; nevertheless, he was aware that, if he did, she’d whip out a gun again… Thus, he didn’t enact his urge . Instead, he nodded and sincerely replied, “All right . I understand . I am your bodyguard, Miss Freya . I am your loyal bodyguard . How can I not be? I shall return to your side once I have healed . You do not need to worry . I am your bodyguard, and I will not be angry about what you did to me . I just hope you do not become, like that, again…”

Freya raised her head up to look at him . She took a deep breath: “I know . I know . I will not do that again . I also… won’t hurt you again… Promise…”

Glossary

*In the big paragraph where Freya blurts out a bunch of things, full stops were deliberately kept out, because that’s how she spoke . She just blurted everything out in one breath with no breaks .
