Incomprehensible Request

Amidst all the confusion, Lakshmi took a deep breath, trying to calm down. It was her task to solve all of this, and that's what she was going to do.

Lakshmi then sighed one last time while looking at Jaya. "Jaya. Go back to your room, okay? You're dismissed for the night," she said.

Jaya then showed a surprised expression. "W-What? But... it's all her faul-" 

Before Jaya could even point her finger to Lukas, Lakshmi interrupted her. "Jaya! Go to your room right now!" the woman said with a stern tone and a fierce look.

Jaya then remained silent for a few seconds before taking a brief glance at Lukas, and standing up. After that, she left the room with a very frustrated expression.

After staring at the door for a moment, Lakshmi sighed before turning to Lukas. "Luka, are you okay? Did she hurt you?" she asked.
