While Andrew and Nadila were having their passionate encounter, Arturios returned to the castle. In the palace office, Candice was still not over her nervousness, as she was having tea with the Marquis and the king.
It was not the first time she had tea with Donald, but never in her wildest dreams had she imagined herself having tea with the king, let alone in the imperial castle.
On the other hand, Donald and the king were comfortably enjoying their drink, when Arturios appeared saying, "Augustus the spies have been captured." Arturios' sudden appearance startled Candice who almost spilled her tea in surprise.
The king for his part was calm and with a slight smile said, "Good work. I imagine Demon is already interrogating them, right?", to which Arturios replied with a short, "Yes".
