Chapter 283 - On the Road (1) (2/2)

”Would you like some refreshments while your resting your majesty?” Tricia asked.

”Water will be fine Tricia.” I said with a smiled.

”I understand. How about you Sir William?” Tricia asked looking at William. I thought I saw her eyes sparked just for a second.

”I am fine Ms. Tricia. No need to mind me.” William refused kindly and made his usual handsome smile.

”I-Is that so.” Tricia said and blushed. ”Then I will take my leave and fetch her majesty some water.” She quickly totted away.

'Oh my. Is what I am thinking correct?' I thought to myself. 'It looks like Tricia has a crush on Will.' I giggled with the thought.

The men were resting quite well under the shades of the trees. It was still early in the morning and the weather is not yet that hot.

”The men would like to express their gratitude to you, your majesty.” William said in passing.

”Their gratitude, but why?” I looked at him with a confused expression. ”I did not to anything to warrant their gratitude.”

I was deep in thought, remembering if I have done something to gain the men's gratitude.

”It is because of your presence that they can rest easily in this journey.” William said. I looked at him still in confusion. ”Haha, it is because of their experience in the past journey towards the capital of Jennovia to save us that they are happy you are here with them on this journey this time around. They are able to have such breaks because of you.”

”But aren't I holding the group back because of this?” I asked in confusion. ”I was afraid that I am a burden because of this. I felt discomfort after riding for a few hours that I am embarrassed that they would think I am a spoiled lady.”

I was really worried what the men will think of me. I do not want them to think of me being spoiled towards their master.

”Do not worry. They are not thinking like that at all. They also think that you are a goddess that can quench their strict masters iron hard heart.” William explained. ”Some of the men had told me how his majesty travelled towards the capital of Jennovia in post haste. They were traveling by horse with no breaks until night fell. They were exhausted with the journey, but they knew it was needed to save you in time. I might say, his majesty is rather strict to his men, he was like a tyrant whenever they were training and in missions. But still, he is a good leader none the less.” He chuckled.

I giggled as well, knowing Regaleon's strict side. I only see the Regaleon who loves me whole heartedly. I looked at Regaleon who was not that far away from me, talking with Chris. He was wearing a serious face while listening to Chris talking. It was different with the Regaleon that always looks at me passionate eyes.

'So, he really is a strict leader.' I thought. 'And to think the men will look at me like a goddess to save the, from their tyrant of a leader.' I giggled.
