The mistress had been waiting for Ashton the moment he walked out of the courtroom. She was worried about him as it had been a while since he went in. But the moment, he walked out she immediately realised there was something wrong with him.
'Why is he pissed?' The mistress thought to herself before rushing in towards him. But before she could get close enough the knights accompanying him jumped in front.
"What is the meaning of this?" The mistress growled at the knights, "I am his lawful guardian-"
"Not anymore." To her surprise, it was Ashton who interrupted her.
"What did you say?"
"I said, you are not my guardian anymore. So it would be better if you leave." Ashton repeated his words while looking straight into her eyes, "Till I manage to get my powers under control, my guardianship belongs to the kingdom, and effectively to his highness, the king."
