Reva didn't seem surprised and gave a light bow as she said in a restrained tone, "Royal father, is there any reason for this sudden visit?"
With his hands behind his back, Ruthren said, "Sudden? I barely even see you around the palace, and it's been like that for all these years despite you staying within the palace. Most of the time, you would either say you are cultivating or having an audience with the venerable one. Why does it seem like you are avoiding me or the others in this palace?"
Reva narrowed her gaze and said calmly, "I am sorry if that's how it seems like, royal father. I merely don't even notice the days passing, and as you know, I am very keen on receiving guidance from the venerable one that I don't get much time to do anything else."
