The city was still noisy from the arrival of the ninth recruits, but Chi-Woo stayed stuck in his rooh he suffered the past couple of days, not ed for hie from his brother, and the situation was the sa that nothing would change if he just moped around in his room, he crawled outside

He went to the veranda and felt the dawn’s cool air when he encountered a person he didn’t expect to see

“Ms Eshnunna?”

The wo a basin was the fallen nation, Salem’s princess: Eshnunna

“Oh…it’s been a while, sir”

“Yes, hello”

Eshnunna greeted Chi-Woo with a bow Then she quickly walked past him and went up the veranda Chi-Woo watched as Eshnunna placed the basin on the veranda and wiped the floor with a squeezed-out cloth

“What are you doing, Ms Eshnunna?” Chi-Woo asked

“I’”

“Why? And so suddenly?”

“What do you mean? I do it because I’ this either,” Eshnunna said nonchalantly as she continued to wipe the floor

“Not the first or second tiht about it, he had been too busy with expeditions and big incidents that came one after another that he didn’t bother to clean up his place, but the house was always clean and sanitary Still, he didn’t expect Eshnunna to be the reason for it at all

“I never asked you to clean though…” Chi-Woo said

“You didn’t”

“?”

“I’ it for you”

It was then Chi-Woo felt so?” Eshnunna asked

Chi-Woo nodded He swore that he didn’t hear a word about this

“Well, it has been a long time since we even saw each other,” Chi-Woo answered

“Ah…that’s true You were very busy these days, and I only ca But anyways, why did you come out so early today?”

Chi-Woo looked even more puzzled He couldn’t keep up with the conversation at all, so he asked a question that could answer all his curiosities

“I will clean it up before you return”

“Also, I’ to be busy these days, so…”

“Yes, ave orders, she appeared like the princess, while Eshnunna was the servant—though, of course, statuses didn’t mean much in the current situation Then Evelyn’s eyes landed on Chi-Woo, atching them

“You also woke up early today,” Evelyn said and asked, “Did you finisharound?”

“Huh?”

“Why is Ms Eshnunna…?” Chi-Woo asked, and Evelyn gasped in realization
