Fulilian: Dominate Aura at the beginning

Chapter 31 Seeking Help from the Lonely Old Man (Part 1)

On the fifth day after returning to the imperial capital, a week after Volame became a child—

There are only three days left until the Emperor's birthday——

Because on the Emperor's birthday, all the court wizards must be present.

So the court mages successfully obtained a full four days of vacation from Volame.

And correspondingly.

Volame and Agushid, who accompanied her to class every day, also had four days of free time.

then--

As expected, the great magician Volame, who had transformed into a child...

Stay in bed too long.

When the morning sun shines into their bedroom through the stained glass windows.

Agushid who got up early and went out to buy food——

After putting breakfast aside in the kitchen, he pushed open the wooden door of the bedroom on time as usual.

He looked at the messy bed.

The gray pupils reflected the curled-up "Little Volame".

Her long light red hair was scattered on the pillow, and her small nostrils twitched slightly with her breathing.

Different from her previous mature and intellectual self.

Now Volame's little appearance can only make people feel cute.

"Volame?"

Agueshid's deep voice echoed in the bedroom.

"Little Volame" wrinkled his nose and buried his face deeper into the pillow.

"Um……"

She responded vaguely, her voice full of the childishness that only a child can have.

"Time to wake up."

Agueshid's voice was low and steady, and he reached out and gently pushed his wife's small shoulder.

"Give me five more minutes..."

Volame continued to dawdle, mumbling as she pulled the quilt higher.

Agueshid sighed, but pulled the quilt down very gently.

"Breakfast is getting cold."

"Can I skip breakfast..."

Agushide’s answer was of course no.

At her husband's repeated urging, Volame reluctantly opened her eyes.

She stretched with tears in her eyes, and the wide sleeves of her nightgown slipped down, revealing her slender arms.

"I didn't wake up late on purpose, it's just that children's bodies are more sleepy."

Volame tried to explain himself in a serious tone.

But her childish voice now made the words sound like a spoiled child.

"I know."

Aguished replied briefly, picking up a comb from the bedside dresser.

"Turn around."

Volame obediently turned around and let her husband help her comb her red hair which looked particularly long.

"Are you going to try a new 'curse-breaking' spell today?"

Agushid asked as he combed his hair, his voice still calm.

Volame shook his calves, but his feet couldn't reach the ground.

"no need……"

She looked down at her small hands and sighed.

"All the various spells I've tried these past few days to break the curse have had no effect—"

"It only means that this is not a problem that can be solved by existing magical principles."

"In the end, I still have to trouble Master..."

Agusid didn't respond immediately, but continued to comb her fluffy hair.

Finally, after expertly tying it with a thin ribbon, he bent down and picked up Volame, his movements so skillful as if he had been doing this for a lifetime.

Volame naturally put her arms around his neck, and her small body snuggled against Agusid.

Walk all the way to the kitchen.

After placing Volame on a specially raised chair, Agusid began to prepare breakfast.

Cut bread, fry ham, and cook oatmeal.

As always, his movements were very clean and smooth, with almost no mistakes.

Volame continued to swing her calves, staring intently at her husband's back.

"Do you need help?"

"Sit still and you're helping."

"That's really hurtful. Even if it turns out like this, I still have some cooking skills."

"You mean the 'cooking skills' that will blow up the kitchen?"

"That explosion was really just an accident..."

The two of them were bickering with each other from time to time.

Before I knew it, the aroma of fried ham filled the entire kitchen.

Put everything in order.
Agusid placed the cut bread on the small wooden plate in front of Volame.

The slices of bread were cut smaller than usual to suit her now small hands.

"I'm not a baby."

Volame, who felt she was being treated like a child by her husband, protested.

But the little hands honestly picked up a piece of bread.

"Are your hands half the size they used to be?"

"Or do you want me to tear the bread into pieces and feed it to you?"

Agushide pointed out the facts mercilessly, then sat in front of Volame and ate his portion quietly.

"When are you going to send a letter to Celie asking her to come to the Imperial Capital?"

Agushid asked as he pushed a glass of warm milk towards Volame's hand.

"It was sent out last night."

Volame held the cup in both hands and took a sip.

"So when will she arrive?"

Aguishid asked.

"The last time I saw her was in the ancient ruins of the Etovis Mountains..."

"So, based on the teacher's normal speed, it will take at least a week..."

The milk left a white mark on Volame's lips, and she subconsciously licked it with her tongue.

"But I told her about my situation in the letter. Um...she should speed up her trip."

Aguishid nodded and reached out to wipe the remaining milk from the corner of her mouth with his thumb.

But his hand did not return after this, for Volame caught hold of his fingers.

Agushide looked at Volame not far away in confusion.

"Lower your head."

Volame looked at him quietly and said so.

Agusid leaned forward slightly, his gray eyes reflecting the way she tilted her neck.

He sensed something, and his stiff knuckles gradually relaxed.

The hair hanging down from her forehead was entangled with the light red on her temples.

Volame clutched his collar, and her warm breath gently brushed against the morning light like a feather.

Outside the window came the distant clamor of the market, and the last wisp of white mist was rising from the oatmeal in the porcelain plate.

bang-

A soft sound coming from the stairs leading to the second floor woke Volame and Agusid.

Flillian, who had just woken up, tumbled down the twenty steps in surprise.

At this moment, he was covering his head and looking at his two teachers with a look of "what a disgusting couple".
