(MC POV)
"I see… So it's all your little brother's plans?" I muttered, trying to wrap my head around what I was just told.
Queen Guiying nodded, refilling my cup of tea despite me telling her not to for the last twenty times.
If anyone had thought it weird that a Master of the Heaven Sect was meeting the Queen without any guards around to protect her, they chose not to comment on it.
I mean… You are letting your regent, who happened to be crowned not just a few days ago, meet someone who can snap a human body in half with his bare hands you know? Not saying I would do it, but the lack of security is quite surprising.
I suppose they still remember about my victory in the tournament that made me her Master, so they trust her with me?
"Yes. If Master had not been there, I fear even with our victory here would have not made a speck of a difference. As expected of Master to have thought about the grander scheme of things."
