A few more days passed and it was now the seventh day since Astrid had arrived at the Dragon Queen's castle.
After the first time Lily and Astrid sneaked into the garrison, Vivian had made sure to remind them of how she didn't want them to disobey her like that ever again. So Astrid didn't really get to watch Aster train closely.
But now that she would be returning home today, the demon princess couldn't help but wonder how her mother would react upon hearing about how she had failed to complete her mission.
"Mom would probably be upset with me," Astrid uttered to herself before dragging her attention toward a very important person in front of her.
Astrid was currently walking around, to take a good look at the castle and its surroundings one last time before she returned home. But she hadn't expected to see Aster resting alone in a place that looked like the Dragon Queen's private garden.
