Romulus had a short conversation with the King. After seeing how serious the King’s health was, he didn’t want to keep on lingering around for much longer.
So, he glanced at the sick King with the intention to conclude their short meeting and said, “Your Majesty, I think I should take my leave now. I don’t think I should make you waste your energy by letting you talk to me. I would rather you to use that energy to recuperate sooner.”
King Alfred gave a nod, happy that the guest was about to leave, and replied, “I really appreciate that you came all the way here to the capital to check up on my health. I know you are a busy man, especially considering how you’ve got a whole batch of new wolves.”
“I’m not so busy that I wouldn’t have time for you, Your Majesty,” Romulus said with a slight smile on his face. “May the Moon Goddess bestow good health upon you.” He gave a bow to the King and upon getting his approval, he got up and turned around to walk out of the room.
