"Hurry, Mr. Chamber! My legs are in pain. I can't stand any longer, so do hurry!" I urged, looking at the Emperor's assistant.
"Yes, your highness, the princess!" he said, hesitating before bowing down. Why? As the emperor's assistant, he should be accustomed to bowing to those with higher authority. Why is this person behaving unusually?
"Bow properly! Didn't you hear what I said? Bow!" I demanded loudly, making his knee reach the floor, his eyes fixed on the ground.
"That is more like it, Mr. Chamber!" I smirked, but the Duke pushed me behind.
"What? Can't you see I'm disciplining someone?" I retorted, looking at the Duke.
"No, I can't see. You are the princess. You are the saintess. You are supposed to be humble. You are supposed to be down to earth. Then what is this behavior? Have you lost your mind, Ellanious De Olger Usoro?" he said in anger, making me laugh instead.
