Samira alighted the carriage with a flustered look on her face. She promised Aethelwolf that she would be back quickly, but the matches were so exciting that she had lost track of time. They were also invited by the emperor to his mansion after the match and she was delayed even further.
"Aethelwolf, it's me!" Samira anxiously shouted outside the clinic. She nervously fiddled the hem of her clothes as she waited.
A few moments later, the door was finally opened and Samira saw Leric and the other employees preparing to leave the clinic.
"How were the matches in the competition?" Leric asked with a smile.
Samira thought that he was angry so she immediately apologized. "Sorry. I lost track of time and His Majesty also invited us to his mansion after the matches so I was delayed.
