Entering the Mad Queen's Body
4. The Queen That Started Weird
Haven woke up rubbing his eyes, his fever was down. For two days he could not get out of bed. And now his stomach is rumbling to be filled. He knew no one would care about him or just give him medicine.
Slowly he got out of bed, or could he be called a bed? It was just an ordinary wooden slab laid out and stacked with hay and an already unfit old carpet. But Haven shaved at least the bed could to help him release his fatigue.
The room is a warehouse located behind the Palace near the storage of used goods. The roof is already leaking, sometimes when it rains the water comes in and makes everything wet. Haven had it fixed last month until his ribs were broken by slipping off a ladder.
Just healed he accidentally broke the Queen's favorite antique statue, so he got a bonus hit by the pot thrown. Because he was usually treated arbitrarily and not considered, he did not cry or angry at the Queen.
Two nights ago, it made her feel strange. The Queen was still cold and haughty as usual, but she saw panic and a slight worried look on the Queen's face. Even the Queen gave him her own robe to wrap Haven's body around.
That's not possible, is it? Haven shook his head. From her little Queen hated her very existence. He was sure it was just a dream, yes a dream. But when he glanced back, he found the Queen's robe. So it wasn't a dream? The queen actually gave it to him?
Clot!
Haven saw something roll down when he pulled the robe. Haven crouched down to pick it up. Those details, medicine? Who put the medicine near him.
Haven also found a basin filled with water in the corner of the room. He only realized when he woke up earlier, he also removed the towel that was fused. Who took care of him?
"Hurry to heal sweet boy."
Faintly Haven recalled the voice of someone who was speaking.
Is that the Queen? Haven closed his eyes while shaking his head strongly. Nah! Nah! No way!
Brak!!
The door was kicked by someone who was a waiter. He brought breakfast to Haven. With a flat face he said, "If you're cured eat! And don't forget to work after you're done!"
The waiter placed a tray filled with food that was a wooden shirt next to Haven's bed. He left without saying anything more. Haven wanted to say thank you but the waiter was out of sight.
When finished he tidied it up and took it out to wash. But not far from he washed, Haven faintly heard the Queen who was angry. A curious Haven approached to see what was going on.
The Queen was shouting loudly scolding some servants who were looking down in front of the corridor. Under it were also some rags scattered. His screams sounded extremely jarring and frightening. Haven can see the Queen's favorite servant, Sely is looking down too.
"DON'T THE QUEEN SAY THAT! THESE GARBAGE CLOTHES WHY HAVEN'T THEY BEEN BURNED YET HUH? YOU WANT TO MAKE THIS QUEEN ANGRY?!"
Haven still does not understand, not that the Queen really likes the clothes that are open and lacking in material. Why is he yelling at the trash?Is it possible that the clothes are less tight and less sexy so that the Queen is less satisfied?
Sely tried to negotiate, "My heart we thought the Queen's words yesterday were playful so we delayed burning these clothes."
The Queen said again coldly and pierced, "You think this Queen is playing around?"
All the servants there froze, if the Queen had said such coldness it would have meant their mistake was already very fatal. Not even Sely said anything anymore. Despite being a darling, he still has a fear of the Queen.
Who is not afraid? Elves turned around and walked towards him. Haven panicked to escape, but it was too late for Elves to see him.
Because Haven could not immediately duck when Elves would soon pass. He was already preparing to be hit by scolding for the Elves' impingement. But he waited a long time for nothing to happen. The Queen simply passed by, not noticing Haven's presence.
Though in the past even from a distance of 100km Elves could detect the presence of Haven to vent his anger. Now that was even seen before his eyes was ignored.
Haven thought this was his lucky day. He smiled brightly like a plain child and immediately ran around to finish his work that had been delayed. Without him noticing the corner of the Queen's lips lifted when he passed it.
"Thank God the boy is healed."
The Queen muttered without anyone hearing it.

Or like the Valley of the Elf kingdom, the Demon Hill, the Big Mermaidy. Because humans coexist with other creatures, except the demons, spirits, and demons in themselves.*
