Chapter 2240: A Younger Sister and a Mother

Mamy Restaurant resuming operations was probably the happiest event for the chowhounds in Chaos City.

Recently, other than customers from Chaos City, there were also other customers coming from far and wide just to try the food from Mamy Restaurant, the restaurant that was praised to the skies by the various gourmet magazines.

They came excitedly and left happy.

However, not everyone could reach Chaos City so easily. An example would be Vanessa, living far away in the palace at Rodu. She watched her mother cry every day until her eyes were red and swollen but she did not know what to say to comfort her.

A few days ago, news of the victory came from the frontline but at the same time, came another news. It was like a bolt of lightning in the middle of the day, shattering her Royal Mother’s heart.

Josh was dead.

Her Second Brother was dead.

Although they were all saying that he was a bad guy, a fool who sold his soul to the devil, a scoundrel who almost destroyed this world, in her memory, most of the time, he was a very gentle brother, a brother who would sneak good food for her, a brother who would stand out to defend her when others mocked her.

She was glad that the allied forces won against the Army of the Dead and that the Norland Continent was spared from annihilation. However, she could not bring her spirits up upon hearing the news of Josh’s death.

Her mother doted on her Second Brother the most. When they heard that he had turned into the devil’s puppet before, her mother could not stop worrying. She was unable to sleep and recently she had been crying non-stop. She could not eat anything and was growing thinner and frailer by the day. This made Vanessa’s heart hurt a lot.

“Royal Mother, have some porridge. I’ll feed you some.” Vanessa took over a bowl of warm red bean porridge from the palace maid. This was her Royal Mother’s favorite dessert.

However, when the red bean porridge was brought to the Queen’s mouth, the scent of it made her gag. She threw up a few mouthfuls of stomach acid and waved her hands weakly.

Vanessa passed the porridge back to the palace maid and wiped the Queen’s mouth with a silk handkerchief. The Royal Physician said that the Queen was too upset and this was a psychological illness. If she continues to starve, it would be difficult for her to pull through. For the past two days, she had been surviving on forcing her to eat a few mouthfuls of magic potions.

“Royal Mother, Royal Mother…” Vanessa hugged the Queen gently and cried.

“Your Father is too ruthless. If he had chosen Sean as the crown prince back then and not given Josh any hope, Josh would never have lost his life for the throne. Two children fighting for a throne. He’s forcing me to lose a child…” The Queen threw up a mouthful of blood, which stained the corner of her lips, making her face look paler in contrast.

The palace maids all lowered their heads in fear silently.

“Royal Mother, I’ll bring you out for a walk. Let’s go to Chaos City, to Mamy Restaurant. I’ll bring you to eat good food. Let’s go out and enjoy ourselves.” Vanessa picked up a thick coat and put it around the Queen. After that, she ordered, “Prepare our flying steeds. I want to bring the Queen to Chaos City overnight.”

“Your Highness, it’s already late at night. Besides, Her Majesty is very weak. I’m afraid His Majesty would not allow you to leave the palace right now,” the chief palace maid said hesitantly. The princess was rather wilful in her actions and they could not afford to be responsible for that.

“You…” Vanessa frowned. She knew that she did not have the power as well.

“I want to go.” Just then, the Queen, who had been spacing out, suddenly sat up straight. She looked at the palace maid and said, “Report to His Majesty. I want to leave the palace.”

“Yes,” the palace maid replied and left hurriedly.

“Royal Mother…” Vanessa was overjoyed to see that her mother seemed to be a little more energetic.

“Help me get changed.” The Queen might not be able to hide the exhaustion on her face but her voice was resolute.

The palace maids started hustling around, helping the Queen change into thick and warm clothes, with an extra fur coat on the outside.

The palace maid from before came back quickly saying that His Majesty had agreed to let the Queen and the Princess leave the palace and that their flying steeds were ready.

Vanessa was surprised that her father would agree. She quickly helped the Queen up on a large flying steed. There was a luxurious traveling palace on its wide back. This was a golden-winged eagle that only the King would ride on when he left the palace.

“To Chaos City!” Vanessa ordered.

Tens of flying steeds took to the skies towards the south.

After leaving the city, the Queen, who had not spoken all the while, suddenly said, “Tell them to turn around. We’re heading north.”

“North? Royal Mother, aren’t we going to Chaos City?” Vanessa asked in shock. She wanted to use her ties with Boss Mag to request that he cook a meal for her mother when they arrive, since it would be very late at night by the time they reached. However, her mother had other thoughts and wanted to go to the north.

“I want to go over personally to see Josh. Otherwise, I would not be able to rest in peace.” The Queen was insistent.

“But…”

“Do you want me to go out to make the order?” The Queen looked at Vanessa.

Vanessa’s heart sank. She turned around and said, “The Queen has orders to turn around and head north, towards the frontline.”

The order was made and the flying steeds paused. There was a little commotion outside but the flying steeds quickly changed direction and flew northwards.

“Syndra still went to take a look for herself…”

In the highest tower of the palace, Andre looked up at the skies, facing the north with a complicated expression.

In a short span of a few days, his hair had turned white and he seemed to have aged a lot.

***

The tens of flying steeds landed gently five kilometers away from where the devil was sealed. The guards had already marked the spot. Balls of fire lit up on the ice sheets and several 10th-tier guards came rushing over in their direction to surround them.

“This is the garrison of the Roth Empire’s Queen! Do not attack!” the chief garrison shouted loudly.

The guards looked at them cautiously and did not lower their weapons.

One 10th-tier knight rushed over and was stunned to see the golden-winged eagle. He went up and said respectfully, “My respects to your Highness. May I boldly ask what your highness wants, coming here at such an hour?”

This was the devil’s seal where the allied forces guarded together. Even if he was the Roth Empire’s officer, and the person who barged in was the Queen, he would still have to act according to protocols.

Syndra was helped out of the traveling palace by Vanessa. She looked at the 10th-tier knight and said, “I visited tonight and alarmed the allied forces’ guards unintentionally. I just wanted to take a look at my son, Josh.”

The guards from the various races suddenly looked hostile. Even that 10th-tier knight was taken aback. The human knights and magic casters guarding the place all looked over.

The Queen’s son, Josh, died on this battlefield.

However, his death was nothing glorious. It was in an exchange for the lives of tens of thousands of allied forces’ soldiers.

The blood of the warriors had yet to dry up but the Queen of the Roth Empire came all the way to the frontline in memory of her son?

This was such a preposterous and hateful thing!

The guards felt disappointed and could not hide the fury in their eyes when they looked at Syndra.

Vanessa had not experienced such a situation before. She subconsciously clung tightly to Syndra’s arm in fear.

The Queen’s garrison tightened their defense and looked at the guards around them cautiously.

“I hate the devil just as much as you do. However, right now, I am just a mother. I am here to take a look at the place where my child last stood. I just want to take a closer look,” Syndra said, enduring the pain in her heart.
