NIKOLAI was surprised when Stephanie and Alphen came out of Nero's room with cuts on their faces.
He also noticed that their clothes were dirty.
Judging by the tray holding broken pieces of tableware in Alphen's hands, he could already guess what happened.
[Nero probably threw his dinner at them.]
Stephanie and Alphen were both Mana users. The fact that they got hurt only meant Nero used enough force to hurt the servants.
"Go to Marcus and get treated for your injuries," Nikolai said to Stephanie and Alphen who were both bowing their heads toward him. "You'll also be compensated for getting hurt while serving the Crown Prince."
"Thank you for Your Majesty's generosity," Stephanie and Alphen said at the same time.
"And I will scold Nero so that something like this won't happen again."
Both Stephanie and Alphen raised their heads in shock.
