Chapter 327, Part 1.22: Zyra
This is a meticulously manicured lawn. Under the gentle winter sun, with a light breeze rustling the grass, it creates a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.

There were only two figures, one large and one small, on the lawn.

The girl sat on the grass, holding a black-covered book in one hand and reading intently. Her long, fluffy, soft, misty gray hair was tied into a loose three-strand braid and hung down her back, adorned with a gold hair clip.

A delicately woven white lisianthus wreath adorned her head, its white petals fluttering in the breeze, pure and beautiful.

Her delicate and beautiful face was so pretty it resembled a doll's, flawless yet somehow unrealistically beautiful. A pale blue, fish-scale-shaped forehead ornament adorned her brow, shimmering faintly in the sunlight.

Her cool, silver eyes were clear and calm, like a deep, ancient pool that could not be disturbed by the slightest ripple, and could not reflect any image.

She wore a long white dress embroidered with mysterious patterns, with a light blue shawl with lace trim draped over one arm, exuding elegance and nobility. The pure aura she possessed was unmatched, even by nuns raised in the Vatican; it seemed that to gaze upon her for even a moment would be a desecration.

She gently placed her other hand on the side of the little boy's head, who was sleeping on her lap.

The little boy lay on the girl's lap with an incredibly dependent and relaxed posture. His eyes were closed beneath his long, silver eyelashes, but a knowing smile played on his lips, like a child who had received candy, filled with satisfaction.

Her beautiful long silver hair was simply tied into three braids and casually cascaded down. A silver olive branch-shaped laurel wreath was placed on her head, with faint bellflowers coiled around it, giving her a sacred aura. Even in her deep sleep, she still exuded a purity that transcended the mortal world.

The white robe appears simple, but it is actually quite ingenious. Upon closer inspection, it is covered with various silver inscriptions, exuding an aura of mystery.

The girl was reading a book, while the boy leaned against her, taking a nap. Under the winter sun, the lawn gave off a sense of peace, tranquility, and comfort.

Suddenly, the phone next to the girl vibrated slightly.

Mu Yegui kept holding the book in one hand, while casually picking up his phone with the other to look at it.

[From Jealousy: The Entertainment Kingdom has run into some trouble, so I've gone to deal with it. Although the Mysterious Kingdom is dangerous, at least Laziness hasn't gone so far as to oppose Pride. Call me directly if anything happens, but it's best not to trust those charlatans in the Mysterious Kingdom; who knows what kind of deceitful schemes they're plotting.]
In fact, considering his jealousy, the word "filthy" is already a very restrained way of describing him.

[Mu Yegui: Thanks for the reminder.] ———— Sent to 'Jealousy'.

The girl looked down at her phone, her slender, fair fingers swiping across the screen, unaware that the boy who had been sleeping on her lap had suddenly opened his eyes.

She opened her cold, inorganic, emotionless silver eyes, but closed them again the next second, as if the act of opening her eyes had never happened.

He shifted his body, seemingly dissatisfied that Mu Yegui's attention was elsewhere, and reached out to hug Mu Yegui's waist, even rubbing his head against hers affectionately.

To others, all of this seemed like a dream come true, but it was enough to embolden him to take advantage of them.

With her phone in one hand, Mu Yegui subtly used her wrist to suppress the increasingly audacious actions of the man, pressing his head back down without hesitation, showing him no respect whatsoever.

Lanlos's face darkened slightly, but his expression returned to normal in the next second. He pretended to be fast asleep and this time he didn't try to hug him any further.

"Make way, make way, make way! I'm in a hurry!! Hey! Don't!" A slightly anxious voice came from afar, but upon closer listening, it was impossible to discern the person's true gender, as the voice was rather androgynous.

Jera frowned, looking annoyed at the two clergymen blocking her way, and said helplessly, "Big brother, uncle, big sister, little brother? Can you let me through? I really have something urgent to attend to!"

His long, dark blue hair shimmered beautifully in the sunlight, showcasing its unique color. His clothing was extremely elaborate, and he carried a very large mail carrier's bag slung across his shoulder. His demeanor was anything but elegant, and his movements were quite rough, but even this couldn't conceal his striking good looks. Jera clicked her tongue in annoyance and, standing on tiptoe, shouted loudly towards the two people in the distance, "I have urgent news to report!!! Your Highness!!! Let me in—"

The shout was like a ghost's wail, and even if you wanted to pretend you couldn't hear it, you couldn't stop it.

Lanlos frowned, his long, silver eyelashes fluttering. The next second, he opened his slightly cold, murderous silver eyes and said in his authoritative, cold, childlike voice, "Let him come here."

Upon hearing Lanlos's words, the priest obediently stepped aside and allowed them to pass.

Jera breathed a sigh of relief, but didn't forget the grudge these two wouldn't let go no matter how much he tried to talk to them. As he passed by, he made a face at each of them, then walked in with his head held high and full of arrogance, like a little fox who had borrowed the tiger's power.

"Your Majesty—uh-hmm~" Zyra had barely uttered a word when she realized she had mispronounced it, so she dragged out the word and changed her address, as if everyone else were idiots who couldn't tell she had mispronounced it.

"What is it?" Lanlos sat up, his youthful and handsome face bearing a cold and aloof expression. Even sitting on the ground, he could not conceal the holy aura he exuded.

"I finally finished the cage you ordered to delay, the one that was so irresponsible! I specially... wait, I've been researching it for so long and it's only now that I've finished it. Would you like to take a look at it now?"

Zyra's lips twitched slightly, and he almost blurted out the truth. He felt that every time he almost told the truth, Lanlos's eyes would turn colder, and he almost killed him with his eyes. Luckily, he was quick-witted and changed his words.

That was close! I almost ruined Lanlos's plans.

Mu Yegui glanced at Jiela and asked softly, "Are your subordinates a little stupid?"

"I don't know him." Lanlos turned around, hugged Mu Yegui, buried himself in her arms, and said in a muffled voice.

Zyra: "..." He actually said it! Can't he at least have some decency? Who is he changing his mind for anyway?!

"No! Your Highness, you're making me a little sad. I've really gone through so much. I'm a merman! I've been spending so much time in the lab without sleep because of your so-called bullshit orders, I'm almost peeling from dehydration!" Jera scratched her head and said shamelessly with her beautiful, rosy face.

"Bullshit orders?" Lanlos crawled out of Mu Yegui's arms, his silver eyes looking at him with a half-smile as he repeated the key words from before.

"Ah, no, you misheard me. I said a great command. After all, you are so tall and mighty, how could I possibly... ah... oh... um..." Jera's face stiffened slightly, and she forced a laugh as she fawned over him. She had accidentally blurted it out and needed to quickly make amends.

Lanlos chuckled softly, slowly parted his thin lips, and said in a very gentle voice, "Get lost."

This single word was powerful and resounding, brimming with rich emotion, while Jera's heart sank to the ground.

This is terrible! Why did he have to say such a blunt truth?! This infuriated everyone. Lanlos had never uttered such a word to anyone with such rich intonation before.

Although, he felt inexplicably like...

It's quite an honor.

Pooh!
Zyra is definitely a comedian; I couldn't help but laugh while writing this.

Just imagining this scene makes me laugh out loud. Lanlos, you've finally met your match!
