Ch. 68: Conference [1]

The light on the floor dimmed down and the door swung open, revealing Theresa and my mother who were standing not far from us. We approached them and bowed in unison.

"We greet Her Majesty the Empress of the Chrono Empire."

"You may rise."

"We greet Her Highness the Consort."

"You may rise."

Finished with the pleasantries, all of us straightened our backs and Theresa took a step forward. 

"Welcome back everyone."

Her blue eyes swept across our faces.

"Thank you so much for all you have done. I heard all of your noble deeds and His Majesty's promise to reward you handsomely. Future activities regarding this matter will be notified and for the time being, you are dismissed. Please have a proper rest."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Theresa nodded and she turned to my mother.

"We will take our leave."

"I understand."
