Of course, some of her personal feelings must have slipped in because of the building hunger since last night, and she admits she went overboard. However, she didn’t expect the Royal Guard to be dispatched.… The Royal Guards in the capital must be idle… In Schmarin, no matter how much she fought, once it was over, the two parties would just shake hands a few times and part ways.9da45f4a44bf9788
