Chapter 439 – Fun Time (Half R-18)

The banquet and drinking party to welcome the ambassador started at 3 PM. I sat beside Queen Eve as usual, and we shared a table.

Because Duke Blacktomb brought a large entourage, the simple banquet was held standing. Many Nobles from our kingdom also attended.

Cleric had already returned from my mansion with a black eye, making everyone worried. However, he healed himself as if nothing had happened and laughed it off before saying that he was just clumsy and fell.

That was a lie. I bet Milea punched him. From what I saw earlier, that was the best explanation behind his black eye. Mafula seemed to notice that he was lying, though, as they talked in the corner for a while.

Meanwhile, I spent my time answering greetings from people I didn't know about.
