Chapter 91

"Th-That was my first time healing such a severe wound… I did not know it would use up so much. I was also unaware… of how dangerous mana depletion could be."

"Unsurprising, considering you learned from the personification of irresponsibility himself," said the princess, her tone suddenly sour. "I find it hard to believe that he failed to teach you the most important thing one must keep in mind when using magic. I would advise you to find a more reliable mentor as soon as possible."

"Ruth… is a good mentor. He did his best to instruct me… despite how busy he was."

"But it was not enough."

Maxi wanted to defend Ruth, but she pressed her lips together at the princess's cold tone. It seemed the princess was more antagonistic toward Ruth than Maxi had first thought.
