……Just why is it that I' here?

Trying to escape the reality that I was right in front of the throne of the royal palace, I glanced over at sodom, Marquis Rolentsor and Earl Einsbark

His Majesty as sitting there, I feel like he called s?

……Unfortunately, I didn't seegered as I stepped forward, and just like that I was in front of the king

”Go, and kneel in front of the king”

Ergnade as right behindtounable to return even though he was just a few steps behind me I kneeled as I was told to in front of the steps to the tall royal throne, fro's blue eyes for an instant before I looked down Neither the king nor I had any expression of our feelings
