Chapter 48: A brave Maid

Angel's POV

<38th Day Of Fifth Month Of 1081st Year of Lisbon Calendar>

'Hm… I woke up.' I mutter in my mind as I regain my consciousness. 'How long was it this time?'

[Sixteen Days.] Zeyth replies plainly.

'Phew.' I sigh inn relief. 'Not nearly as long as last time. It is the second time now.'

[And hopefully the last.] Zeyth remarks. [You better not take the next Affinity Potion any time soon. You may not have as many injuries as last time and hence woke up earlier, but your blood vessels still need to recoup from the strain you forced on them.]

'I know. I know.' I retort. 'There is no rush.'

"Hm?" I hear a female voice, its source not far from me. "Her majesty seems to be awake!"

Damn I said the last part out loud and not in my head.

I hear the sound of a door being slammed open and retreating footsteps as some people storm out.
