In the throne hall, Min sat on his throne and without any expression looked at Maria.
"How is Elder M doing?" Min sized her up.
"Father is apologetic not being able to come to the council meetings, Ghost King," Maria bowed.
"I hope he has a good reason. Well, it doesn't matter. It's up to Elder Z to take care of it."
Maria remained silent. Min stood up and approached her. His hand was coated in green light.
"Since you've refused to attend the academy, I cannot force you, however, if I recall right, the M family's powers back then were healing powers. I hope you can manifest them and provide your services to me," Min held his hand on her head and a sharp pain surged through her body.
Through clenched teeth, she complied, "Yes, Your Highness."
"You can leave now," Min retired to his seat and didn't spare her another glance.
