Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

The Unseen Kingdom That Followed Me Into Every Dream by Alyndra Meron Valeen 59 Summary In this tense scene, James arrives late and immediately faces a threatening situation with Baron and Sebastian, who clearly know each other and hold power over him. James is terrified when he realizes that Sebastian outranks him and understands that he has deeply offended someone important. His fear escalates as Baron brandishes a steel bat, ready to punish James severely. James desperately pleads for mercy, begging not to be harmed for the sake of his daughter, Rhea.

He regrets his earlier actions and tries to convince the others that he is remorseful, emphasizing that Rhea still needs her father. However, Baron remains indifferent to James' pleas, focusing instead on the narrator, who seems to hold the authority to decide James' fate. The narrator remains silent initially, reflecting on the contrast between James and his kind daughter, Rhea. Baron takes the bat and threatens James directly, showing his readiness to act if commanded.

James becomes even more desperate, groveling and offering his daughter in marriage to the narrator as a way to save himself, revealing his sycophantic nature. Finally, the narrator intervenes for Rhea's sake, helping James to his feet and demanding that he stop treating his daughter as a bargaining chip. James quickly agrees, eager to appease the narrator. Baron then orders James to thank the narrator for his mercy and leave immediately. James complies, visibly shaken but grateful to escape the dangerous situation.
