Lucien realizes she hasn't been breathing when Efthalia stood in front of her. Until a strong hug wrapped around her body.
"Lady Lucien, I am so pleased to know that you've been pardoned." Renee came rushing and happily hugs her tight in an embrace. "I was troubled if you would be banished from this kingdom."
"L-lady...Re-Renee...*choke* too...ti-tighhh... I-I can't *choke* breath-the.."
Alina quickly separated Lucien from the tight embrace of Renee.
Lucien was breathlessly bending this body in front with both hands on top of her knees. 'How is it possible for a female protagonist to be this strong?'
Alina scolded her for exposing too much of her emotions and that she nearly tried to send Lucien to hell.
Renee apologizes for her behavior which she commonly does to her family. More like, it was a common thing in the Nightangle family.
