Chapter 38

  Baski stood in front of the King who has finished dressing in his formal garments.

  "I redressed her wounds and applied new herbs on her. Her back looks better and her wounds are not infected. "She recounted.

  The king said nothing. Baski doesn't know the meaning of 'no feedbacks'. The woman purposely chooses not to understand that particular command, and Lucien doesn't know why.

  "I already relayed your order to see her later, your Highness. I hope there is nothing else you want me to do before I go?"

  He walked to the desk and started rolling the scrolls one after the other until they were all folded on the desk. He didn't look at her when he asked, "How is Remeta?"

  Baski's heart broke a little at the sad question. "She's n-not doing so well, your Majesty."

  He didn't say anything for so long.

  "Be strong, Baski." He groaned at last.
