I am the old, fiery-faced man from the senior department.

My loved ones are separated from me, and I never want to see them again.

Looking back on the past and then at today.

Alone and forlorn, utterly alone.

"Ah, no, that's not right."

The dragon clapped its hands.

He clearly has a younger colleague who he can talk to and who is quite interesting.

"Let's go see her for now..."

I remember that the child worked at the Dali Temple.

Including the major case she solved before and his recommendation, that child should have been promoted to Junior Minister by now.

The Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review must have a considerable salary; it should be more than enough to buy a roast goose.

■

When I woke up again, my body had recovered and the fatigue had subsided considerably.

But she still didn't want to get up.

She longed to hear that concerned voice. She longed to hear him call her name gently, his voice filled with helplessness.

She wanted to see those eyes, still clear and bright, seemingly only for her.

but……

Nothing at all.

The room was empty; there was neither the sound of longing nor the sight of the person being missed.

He wasn't inside the house.

Did they go out?

So, did he go to prepare food, or was he called over to play with the children?

The lynx turned to the side, its blue eyes fixed on the doorway, as if it would push open the door with steaming hot food at any moment, then smile and tell her to get up and eat, or sit here, saying this in a half-forceful manner, yet feeding her little by little with gentle movements.

These things seem like they happened just yesterday, yet they also seem like they happened a long time ago.

"..."

They haven't come back yet.

Was it because there were too many people getting food in the cafeteria? Or were the children clinging to him and not wanting him to come back?

The lynx thought to herself, her beautiful ears twitching with her thoughts.

Or is it……

He's gone.

"Ah……"

A self-deprecating laugh rang out.

Isn't this what you've been waiting for, Kal'tsit?

She stroked the jade bracelet on her right wrist, her body slowly arching and curling up into a ball.

Disappointed with his stubbornness, she wanted to support a new monarch to prove herself right.

The result was that I ended up being embarrassed and shamelessly asking him for help.

“We’ve known each other for years, Kal’tsit. This is the first time you’ve come to me for help. I can’t remember how you argued with me last time about whether resisting invasion into enemy territory was a just act, or how you argued with me about the relatives of those enemy troops who were harassing the Great Yan.”

"Let me be frank! You never wanted my friendship. And you're afraid of owing me favors. Kal'tsit, I don't want to get involved in this mess."

"I understand. You've successfully spread your ideals in Kazdel. Your schemes have been effective; the restless wanderers have found a place to call home, and you have the Demon King and the Tower of Babel to protect you. You don't need a friend like me. But... now you come to me saying, 'Lord Daylight, please uphold justice for me.'"

"I will help you because you are my friend."

“But you have no respect for me at all, Kal'tsit. You don’t treat me as a friend. You’re not even willing to call me Your Highness anymore.”

The unbearable past events are still vivid in my mind.

"You are really... stupid... ignorant."

The lynx trembled slightly as it looked at the jade bracelet it had thrown away, which had been returned to its hand.

"Your Highness..."

Young Ah Xi's Daily Life 02: The Special Attack on the Charm of Elders of the Opposite Sex

Good morning, Doctor.

A boy with short, white hair walked into the hooded man's office while eating an ice pop.

"Good morning, Mr. A... um, what should I call you now?"

"Call me Ah Xi or Mr. A, it's up to you, Doctor."

The boy looked left and right, then his blue eyes lit up, and he immediately took a liking to the sofa in the doctor's office.

"Oh, this feels so nice."

Sitting up there, the boy let out a leisurely sigh.

"Then I'll be a bit reckless..."

The hooded Doctor looked at the boy, took a box of candy out of his drawer, and waved it at him.

"Your Highness Ah Xi, would you like one of Victoria's specialty fruit gummies?"

Although she was asking, she had already tossed him the candy.

"Thanks, Doctor."

Bai Zhou reached out and caught the candy.

Sure enough, he preferred the Doctor to the way he was now compared to the opportunist he used to be.

"Speaking of which, Doctor. I think this should be working hours."

Sipping his popsicle, Bai Zhou glanced at the professor, who was clearly slacking off, and gave him a mischievous grin.

"What if the little rabbit sees this..."

"I'm doing it, I'm doing it... Please, Your Highness, have mercy on me and let me go. Please, please don't tell Amiya about this."

Doctor looked at the boy in front of her with a hint of resentment. He was so handsome, yet he had such a cruel heart. Give her back the candy she secretly bought!

"Why has Your Highness Ah Xi come here?"

The doctor took out a completed document and pretended to work, while his gray eyes stared at Bai Zhou.

"I came here to find some peace and quiet."

Bai Zhou reluctantly swallowed the last bite of his popsicle, then threw the small stick into the trash can next to his feet.

“Kal'tsit went to handle some matters. She thought that if I stayed in the medical department, it would cause a big commotion and might delay a lot of important things, so she recommended that I come here to rest with the Doctor... no, I mean, to be on duty here.”

"On duty... I remember today should be..."

The doctor glanced at the schedule, then a knowing smile appeared on his face hidden under his hood.

"Then please do as you wish, Your Highness. I will deal with this document first."

"Okay, I won't bother you any longer, Doctor. Please feel free to call me if you need any help. Good luck, Doctor."

Bai Zhou gave her a thumbs up, then picked up a book called "A Survey of Akahura Customs" from the bookshelf in the office and started reading it with great interest.

Meanwhile, the operative who was supposed to be on duty was rushing to the doctor's office.

"Oh no... I overslept because I was arguing with those guys about the greatness of the God-King..."

Her pretty face, which had been hastily washed after being startled awake, still showed signs of fatigue and dissatisfaction, suggesting that yesterday's debate had been quite intense.

"Hmph, if I weren't away from Great Yan, I would definitely go through the internet and punch that guy, let him know how the Divine Dragon Venerable got his position, and what they, as the agents of the Divine Lord, can actually do."

Seemingly due to the intense emotional change, the golden ends of her hair were accidentally curled up into a ball by the electric current.

"Oh no... this is bad."

The girl became even more distressed.

However, once you turn this corner, you'll reach the professor's office. Let's go and borrow his comb.

With that thought in mind, she arrived at the office door and knocked.

"Please come in."

The doctor's voice rang out, and the door was pushed open.

The first person to enter wasn't the officer on duty, but her apology.

"I'm sorry, Doctor, I overslept due to some unforeseen circumstances."

The girl with the unicorn logo sincerely apologized to the doctor.

Then... she saw someone looking at her with a puzzled expression...

God Lord...

"Good morning, it's the Awakening of Insects."

"..."

The boy was standing too close.

This was the only thought in Jingzhe's mind.

Although her appearance had changed, those cloud-like hair, amber dragon horns, and blue gemstone eyes that she knew so well remained...

Furthermore, the source of power emanating from him indicated to Jingzhe that the young man before her was the Divine Lord.
