Chapter ~ 38

Zylith.

I'm a very forgiving person, I really am; but... there are somethings even I can't digest without a qualm; such as knowing that Fredurd was appointed to be my personal knight not because he was promoted, but because he was demoted.

I could no longer maintain the smile on my face when I heard Fredurd's words.

".......What did you just say?" I asked in a slow foreboding voice.

"I was punished to be the first Queen's personal knight. Whuwaaaaa!" He repeated again and the words almost pierced through my poor heart.

"....It was a punishment?....."

"Yes Your Highness, at first I thought it was ridiculous that I was appointed as your personal sworn knight as my punishment, it seemed more like a promotion to me as well. But after I met you, I finally understood that it really was meant to be a punishment(Sob, sob~)."

I wonder why I had the sudden murderous urge to throttle someone.
