Chapter 508

Thump, thump
Footsteps sounded as if someone had arrived at the door.
Squeak
The door opened, and someone entered. It was the room’s owner, Praminus. Jiksal, who had been waiting for Praminus, rose from his seat.
“Go.”
As Gipsal rose, Praminus spoke before exiting the room again. Gipsal followed Praminus out of the room.
“Are we going to the office?”
Gipsal asked as he walked behind Praminus.
“Yes. Ah, and.”
“…?”
“The Queen is also in the office at the moment.”
The Queen is there too. Meaning, be careful with your actions and words. Gipsal nodded as if understanding and replied.
“Understood. I’ll be careful, very careful.”
This was in front of the King and Queen. They would be extremely important figures in Gipsal’s future actions. Even if told to act rudely, he wouldn’t do it.
‘But…’
Gipsal sensed something was off.
‘Was there a queen?’
The Queen, Praminus—he had clearly used the word ‘queen’. It wasn’t that he didn’t know what a queen was and felt something was off. Gipsal felt something was off because this was the first time he had learned of the Queen’s existence.
‘Come to think of it, if there’s a prince, there must be a queen.’
There’s no way there’s a prince without a queen. Gipsal quickly shook off his unease and followed Praminus with a cheerful expression.

“Is this someone I know?”
Jiyeon entered the office, glanced around, then sat down naturally in a chair and asked Myeonghu.
