Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons! Vol 18 Chapter 2

Luna gently placed a cup of tea down in front of me: “Your Majesty, it is not good if you get to work straight away after returning to the North . You should rest first . If you are too sleepy, head back and sleep . Sleeping in your chair is not good for you . ”

I sat up in a hazy state . I looked outside . The flames were still burning . I looked back at Luna: “Luna, what time is it?”

Luna bowed: “Have you forgotten? After you finished dinner, you sat here and fell asleep . Consort Lucia told me not to wake you, and let you sleep for two hours before waking you . Everyone has returned to their rooms . You should go back to your room to rest at night . I have notified Consort Lucia and Consort Nier . They will not disturb you tonight . ”

I grabbed hold of Luna’s hand . She looked left and right in a flustered fashion . In a soft voice, she protested, “Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Not now! Someone will see us!”

“I want you to sit down, and have a cup of tea with me . What are you thinking?”

I looked at Luna feeling confused, while she went red in the face . She lividly admonished me with her gaze . She whipped her hand, sat down in the armchair opposite me and grumpily looked away . I passed her the cup of tea in front of me . I walked over to her . I gently caressed her hair and tenderly said, “Sorry, Luna, if it’s tonight, we can…”

“What are you saying? Why do I not understand? Were you not going to get some good sleep tonight?”

Luna turned onto her side and looked at me with a polite smile . I smiled back then walked back to my armchair and sat down . Luna didn’t say anything else .  She was most probably still upset . I didn’t have any spare energy to pamper her, so I leaned into my chair and spaced out as I stared at the crackling flame .

A short moment afterward, Luna turned to face me . She couldn’t hold it in any longer . She questioned, “Your Majesty, did you not go to the elven lands and humanity’s to have a break? Why are you so worn out after coming back? Also, I heard an accident happened at Troy City . As I am a maid, I did not dare to ask any further questions . What exactly happened?”

“Troy City was burnt to the ground . ”

My simple answer shocked Luna . She followed up: “What was the reason? There has been no news from Troy City in a long time . What exactly happened there?”

“I, personally, burnt it to the ground . Lots of things happened there . If you want to know, go and ask Freya . I don’t want to talk about it again . I went to the elven lands and humanity’s to have a break; however, Mommy Vyvyan and Mommy Elizabeth seemed to forget what my goal was… Nonetheless, the biggest problem is that things I had to get involved with happened . ”

“For example, the new child? She is a dark elf, correct? Your Majesty, she is very rare . I thought dark elves had gone extinct . The last time I heard the mention of a dark elf was from you . ”

“Oh, yes, if I’m not mistaken, she’s the last dark elf . She’s just a kid with a childish rage and desire for revenge . If we must name her part in it, she would be considered the person who lit the spark that led to the destruction of Troy City . But nonetheless, she didn’t do it on purpose . Whenever dark elves are mentioned, I recall I let Mera down, and I can’t find it in me to be ruthless enough to punish her . ”

I was honest . I could never be fair with dark elves . Despite knowing that the girl’s mana potion was the reason Troy City was destroyed, I didn’t want to punish her . Whenever I saw her fearful eyes, Mera’s final gaze would surface in my mind .

Luna consolidated her thoughts . Then, she sauntered over to me and gave me a gentle hug . My face got intimate with her chest . She hugged my head in a tender manner and stroked it as a mother would . I didn’t move .

“I truly feel somewhat jealous of Mera . She spent such a short time with you, yet she etched such a deep mark in your heart . Your Majesty, I also died once . Did I leave you with any sentiments?”

“You etched a mark just as deep . It’s so deep that it’s still heart-wrenching whenever I think about what happened to you in spite of me now being able to see you and touch you . ”

“Really? I am glad to be able to have left such a deep mark in your heart . Your Majesty, I have always been a weak individual . Resistance never crossed my mind no matter what I did . I was scared . Still, I did not do anything but cry in the corner . After meeting you, you gave me courage . I still do not regret not running away . If I had to go through the same thing again and was told that I could not be revived, I would still stand at the door without any hesitation . ”

“I won’t let you stand there alone if history repeats itself . ”

I looked up from Luna’s chest and touched her face . She looked at me with an affectionate gaze: “Are you not afraid someone sees us? It would be practically impossible to not reach Consort Nier and Consort Lucia if somebody sees you doing this with your personal servant . ”

“You scared?”

“That is obvious . If the two of them were to get mad, I would have nowhere to go . ” Luna gently grabbed my hand on her face . She gently, yet resolutely, removed my hand . She patted her maid uniform and smiled: “Your Majesty, I shall not disturb your sleep time . You did not get to have a good rest in the elven lands or humanity’s . Therefore, you should rest in the North now that you are back . Just let me take care of you . After all, I have not worked for two months now . I can begin work again . ”

“Really? It seems that you were satisfied with the two months . How about I find another personal servant so that you can continue with that lifestyle forever?”

“… Your Majesty, you have just set the record for angering me twice in an hour . How amazing, huh? If you already have a new candidate for your personal maid, I shall happily leave! You are a liar, too?!”

“I was joking . I was joking . I honestly don’t have a new personal servant! I don’t! I was just joking! I was just joking!!”

At that same time, the White Deer King suddenly shivered from head to toe . She suddenly woke up from her dream . She blearily looked around and pondered, “Everything looks the same as usual . Why did I suddenly wake up? What happened?”

The White Deer King irritably moved her leg then looked in the direction of the Imperial Palace . “It’s definitely his fault,” thought the White Deer King .
