Does Her Majesty the Empress Understand Me a Little Too Well?

I don't know why, but my Empress understands me so well.

Empress: "What reward do you want?"

Me: "Serving Your Majesty is reward enough."

[Ah... I really want the little tyrant to wear black stockings and step on my face.]

The next day

The tyrant Empress, wearing black stockings, looked down at me with a sly smile.

"For some reason, I suddenly feel like stepping on you today."

"Your Majesty is wise!"
