“Your Majesty.”
James walked into the hall and greeted her.
Xianna was dressed in a blue gown and was sitting at the highest seat in the hall. James’ greeting snapped her out of her thoughts. She put down her hands, sat up straight, and looked at James standing in the hall. Her worried expression immediately disappeared and was replaced with a pleasant smile.
“You’re here, Mr. Caden.”
James nodded and said, “Mhm. I’ve come to ask if Your Majesty has acquired information about my friends’ whereabouts.”
Empress Xianna replied, “I’ve already ordered my subordinates to distribute their portraits, but there hasn’t been any news about them so far.”
Hearing this, James was disappointed,
So many days had passed, but there was still no news about them. It seems reuniting with Henrik and Qusai was going to be challenging.
“Don’t be discouraged, Mr. Caden. The world is huge, so it’s hard for our country to find them in such a short period. Perhaps we’ll hear about your friends after a bit more time has passed.”
Xianna noticed James’ worried expression and tried to console him.
James composed himself and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty. Please help me look for them. Also, I wanted to inform you of my departure. It’s been twenty days since I’ve stepped foot into Sangria, and it’s best I leave soon.”
Xianna agreed. “Indeed. There’s a curse in our country. Men don’t last more than a month here. It’s been like this ever since we can remember. You should quickly set off. I’ll send people to you when we have information about your friends.”
“I appreciate it, Your Majesty.”
James acknowledged her words and bowed respectfully.
