The queen was kidnapped by a spellcaster?
Well… Roland suddenly thought of a lot of irrelevant things, which were understandable, because the queen must be very beautiful according to common sense.
Roland had met the princess yesterday. She was beautiful, so it was only natural that her mother was beautiful too.
Then, a spellcaster took the queen away. He didn't kill her but kidnapped her, and her beauty must be one of the reasons for that.
So, Roland's random thoughts were normal and reasonable for a man of his age.
Seeing Roland's reaction, the soldier chuckled. "You seem very surprised, don't you?"
Roland asked back, "Are you not surprised?"
"Not really." The soldier shook his head. "She's the king's third queen anyway."
Huh?
Roland was even more surprised. "Three queens have been taken away?"
