206: The Eastern Continent - part 3

"Home, sweet home. Oh, how I missed being back home. Hey, Emily, can you see how happy I am to be back home?"

The guard names Emily shook her head at her Lady's carefree smile and words. She had been with Lady Mei for so long that seeing past her mask was second nature to her.

She knew what her lady thought about this place and her connections to this continent. And since she knew, Emily knew she had to keep her mouth shut to survive.

Unfortunately for the others, they did not have the same privileges as Emily and made the mistake of questioning Mei.

"My lady, don't you hate this place? Why did you want to come back here when you don't like it here."

The older guards tensed up as soon as they heard those words. They knew Lady Mei had a short temper and she did not like being questioned much.

'This guard is dead. We won't see him past tonight.'

Everyone had the same thought in their mind. The poor guard had unknowingly dug his own grave by angering lady Mei.
