The next day.
Before everyone else woke up, Mika sneaked out from the inn and made his way to the place, where the palace should be.
The sun just started to rise on the horizon but it was already busy there as many people began to repair the palace.
"Good morning, Mika. What are you doing here at such an early hour? Shouldn't you prepare yourself for the academy?" Cylia asked.
It was rather surprising to see her, the queen, taking part in the reparation, which meant that she had to do some labor work. However, as she was responsible for the palace's destruction, she decided to take responsibility.
Even Tija was seen helping out.
"I came here to ask for an audience with your Highness." Mika answered sternly.
Cylia sighed with a smile on her face.
"I suppose I cannot say no to you, considering my selfishness from yesterday." she said jokingly.
