Isabella was wiping Seira's face with a cloth when a maid approached her, looking pale.
"C-Concubine Isabella, I have important news."
Isabella paused and turned to the maid, then gave a slight nod.
"Tell me."
"The ministers are asking you to come to the throne room. They say there's something important to discuss."
Isabella raised her eyebrows slightly. She wanted to ask more, but decided against it.
"I see. Thank you for letting me know."
The maid bowed before turning and leaving.
The room fell silent once more.
Isabella looked at Seira, who was still unconscious, then muttered, "What do they want to talk about?"

In the throne room, the ministers stood around with worried looks on their faces. Armand was among them.
As one of the oldest ministers, he was highly respected by his colleagues.
At that moment, they were all bombarding him with questions.
"Minister Armand, what should we do? The government can't function without a leader!"
