It was already morning when Asher was about to end his study session with Rowena, where she would teach him about the matters of the kingdom. He had arrived here quite early so that he wouldn't be late to go to the Tower of Hell.
"That's it for today. I don't want you getting late," Rowena said as she wrapped up some of the documents, though her brows revealed a tinge of disappointment that she had to end it here for now.
She found it quite refreshing to have someone she could share the burdens of the kingdom. She thought she would have to take a lot of time to bring Asher up to speed.
But to her astonishment, he was a quick learner who had a natural talent for understanding the complexities of how the kingdom worked. It made her proud to see that he was able to grasp even the most intricate of matters and even come up with better solutions to small issues here and there.
