Man on the ark, forced to become king

She only felt at ease when she was here.

"it is good."

He answered with a single word in a sullen voice. Qiu Bai took out a few dishes from the food box, unsealed the wine, added wine, and sat down opposite Chong Yue.

The master and apprentice looked at each other, raised their glasses in unison, and remained silent.

-------------------------------------

"Ah... someone please save me..."

Kazdel, the Great Golden Tree, Kal'tsit's office. The petite Blood Demon girl lay sprawled on the desk like a dried-up salted fish, her eyes lifeless, with large dark circles under her eyes, looking as if she was about to burn out.

Snapped!

Another desk was added opposite the original single desk, joined together with it. Kal'tsit, who was sitting opposite Warfarin, put down her coffee cup, glanced at it, and said indifferently, "Your work efficiency is good. If you work a little harder, we will be able to finish processing the backlog of documents soon, and we won't have to do this anymore."

"Do you want to listen to what you're saying?"

Warfarin jumped up from her chair in a flash, but a dark green shadow peeked out from the side just in time, causing the Blood Demon Lady, who was about to erupt, to falter. She slumped back into her chair, even pulling her legs up, curling herself into a ball, and muttering under her breath.

"I've been working for two whole days straight! Two whole days! Even the camels on the farm don't work this hard! Please, let me go..."

"I, Warfarin, have dedicated my life to medicine and saved countless lives. Why should I suffer such retribution as you..."

Yes, retribution.

Before this, Warfarin, an old blood demon who had lived for hundreds of years, had never believed in anything about fate.

But now, she was 200% certain that Kal'tsit was her destined calamity, sent by God to punish her!

Heaven have mercy, she's been sitting here for two days and two nights without moving!

When she's hungry, she eats boxed lunches; when she's thirsty, she drinks boiled water; and even when she goes to the toilet, Kal'tsit sends that damned pet to follow her!

This is worse than being in prison. Kal'tsit is the most vicious devil in the world!

"Don't complain. These documents have been accumulated over time. Once these are dealt with, there won't be so many in the future."

Kal'tsit knew Warfarin harbored resentment, but she didn't take it to heart.

This guy is shameless. He's making a big fuss now, but once he sees the benefits, he'll be impossible to get rid of. There's no need to pay him any attention.

They have been friends for many years, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them close relatives and sisters. They can exploit her without any pressure, and she doesn't feel any psychological burden at all.

However, some benefits are always necessary to motivate them to work more efficiently. If they continue to be so sluggish, their document processing speed will drop significantly.

After thinking for a moment, Kal'tsit reassured you, "Once these backlogged matters are dealt with, I will keep all my promises to you."

"Really?"

Warfarin looked over suspiciously, but finally nodded reluctantly: "Then—wait a minute!"

The words she wanted to say stuck in her throat. Miss Blood Demon racked her brains, trying to recall what Kal'tsit had promised her.

but.

Aside from saying "I've found a cure for Oripathy," this guy didn't promise her anything at all, let alone deliver on his promises!

What a fool!

Warfarin immediately flew into a rage, leaping off the chair as if springy, so fast that even Mon3tr, who was nestled next to her, couldn't react in time.

"Hahaha, back in the day my speed was unparalleled—"

Bang!

Before the unrestrained and arrogant laughter could finish, a muffled thud was heard, and the whole room seemed to shake slightly.

Kal'tsit calmly picked up her coffee cup, took a sip, and looked up. The poor Blood Demon, who was trying to escape, was stuck to the glass in a bizarre position. The glass she had tried to break through was still smooth and new, undamaged by the force of the impact.

"The special protective glass transported from Longmen is used by Governor Wei, so its quality is guaranteed."

"Kal'tsit I ##￥%#￥%#%!"

The defenses have been breached. The major defenses have been breached.

Warfarin collapsed to the ground with a thud. Before she could even get up, she uttered a string of beautiful Sarkaz words, trembling with rage. Her already pale skin turned even paler, making the office walls pale in comparison.

"You plotted against me!"

"Don't get me wrong, you're not worth as much as these few pieces of glass, they weren't prepared for you."

"Now that you mention it, I just remembered something. I'll arrange for someone to smash the same glass in your place later."

Kal'tsit ignored Warfarin's beautiful Sarkaz speech, twitched her furry ears, and added a comment.

"Thank you!"

Meeting Mon3tr's two small eyes, Warfarin instantly lost her composure, gritted her teeth, and sat back down in her chair. Glancing at the pile of documents on the table, which was half a meter high, she felt a deep sense of despair wash over her.

Sooner or later, she would lock this despicable woman in a specially made dungeon and use every tool she knew to give her a good beating, to avenge today's humiliation!

As for now...

She was, after all, an elder among the Blood Demons, experienced the vicissitudes of life and the changing times, highly respected and well-mannered, and wouldn't stoop to the level of such a barbarian!

She is a well-mannered, knowledgeable, and idealistic Blood Demon with a broad mind!

That's right, that's it!

"Today is the New Year in the Yan Kingdom."

Suddenly, Kal'tsit said something out of the blue, which startled Warfarin, who wondered what she was up to.

"What's wrong with celebrating the New Year? You're still celebrating a festival from Yan Kingdom?"

"I'm not, but some people are. Never mind."

Kal'tsit tapped her finger on the table, pondered for a moment, and then, under Warfarin's surprised gaze, moved the spread-out documents aside.

Actually, there aren't many urgent issues to resolve right now. The most important documents have a high priority and are usually processed as soon as they are sent over.

What has survived and been accumulated are mostly things that are not in a hurry, such as the expansion of a certain place or the relocation of materials.

Therefore, leaving it for a while is not a big deal.

The Golden Tree wasn't as lively as usual today. Lani and Theresa, who preferred living in the Great Blessing, had both gone to Lungmen and hadn't been around for a long time. The younger ones had left because Theresa had something to do, and the Doctor had taken them to Chernobog to look after them, making the place seem much quieter.

This atmosphere affected Kal'tsit to some extent. For a moment, she even wondered if she had become more fragile. She used to be much more emotionally sensitive.

"Take a rest tonight. Logos and the others are probably having some kind of party. You can go and check it out. They always find a reason to do something weird."

Kal'tsit's fingers slid lightly across the tabletop when she suddenly felt a cold hand press against her forehead.

Looking up, I saw Warfarin's suspicious expression.

"Are you alright? You don't have a fever..."

"If you don't want to go, stay here and work on the documents until you're done."

Warfarin gave him a cold, sidelong glance, and immediately jumped away, running towards the door with a sheepish grin.

Just kidding, she didn't want to stay cooped up in the office any longer. She rarely had time to relax, so how could she miss it?

"..."

Watching Warfarin's departing figure, Kal'tsit shook her head, reclined her office chair, and closed her eyes.

She won't participate in the party; the atmosphere would be different if she went.

Entertainment is not necessary for her; her rest consists of lying here for a while, then getting up to work on documents, and that's enough for her.

……

On the other side, Warfarin left the office in high spirits and went outside. The first thing she saw was the giant golden tree standing between heaven and earth. From this position, the huge golden trunk reached straight into the sky, and the canopy spread out, blocking out most of the sky. It was a magnificent sight.

Even the Blood Demon, who had lived for many years, had to admit that this place was truly a paradise on earth.

The golden glow of the trees illuminates the night, spreading out as if shutting out all the strife of the world. Tranquility is the most touching atmosphere here.

Taking a deep breath, the depleted physical energy and listless spirit are replenished at an extremely fast speed, and in a short while, the whole person becomes energetic again.

For most people in the world, simply living here is already a luxury.

Beneath the golden tree, even the air was filled with a rich life force. For the blood demons who relied on the life force in blood for sustenance, breathing here was enough to supply their bodies' needs, and even their suppressed blood-sucking urges disappeared.

Being constantly bathed in an ocean of life force, with no deficiency in the body, there is naturally no need to suck blood.

"over there?"

After standing there for a while, Warfarin looked at the group of buildings not too far from her office. She sensed a considerable number of people gathered there. Although she couldn't hear or see them, she could tell from the restlessness she sensed that it must be very lively inside. Presumably, that was where the gathering was taking place.

However, after taking a few steps forward, Warfarin stopped and suddenly didn't want to go anymore.

She looked in that direction, her eyes flickering, and remained silent for a long time before finally turning back and walking towards the office building she had just come from.

"They're all young people, someone like me shouldn't go and join in the fun..."

Muttering incoherently, a smile returned to her face as Warfarin stepped into the 'den of demons' she had been avoiding just moments before.

Based on her understanding of Kal'tsit, that guy definitely wouldn't take a break; at most, he'd lie down in his chair for a while and then continue working.

In that case, she should probably lend a hand.

It's normal for young people to enjoy lively activities; let these older folks keep up the good work and contribute their remaining energy.

She doesn't really need entertainment or anything like that.
