[Vol. 3] Chapter 67

I was going to the emperor's chamber the next day when I heard some commotion outside of the emperor's chamber. As I reached there, I saw a fairly tall man with silk smooth long black hair, donned in pants and vests which had a logo of Wansai, was shouting at the guards.

As I reached I heard him saying in an angry voice, "Who have ordered you to guard the door?"

The guards were assigned by Arashi and he had forbidden anyone to enter other than Arashi, the empress, Rei and me.

Even the maids of the emperor weren't allowed.

"I apologize for the interruption." I said as I bowed. He had shoulder armor and from his look I could get he was a superior person. He looked in his later forties but his body looked strong and daunting as if he could fight five-six persons if they attacked him.

I asked, "If I may ask, who could be the gentleman, my Lord?"

He looked at me, veins popping out of his forehead as he growled, "And why would I answer a lowly maid?"
