"I wonder how Miss Abigail rested yesterday. I hope she can keep her promise as soon as possible."
Ultraman still has a lot to do today, one of which is to complete the resupply of the 3rd Mech Regiment.
"That damned Richard! He took advantage of our misfortune yesterday, but we also owe him a debt of gratitude, otherwise things would have been resolved so easily."
If you think about it carefully, Ultraman didn't lose out at all. Although he did earn less money, he gained Abigail's friendship, even though this friendship was like a canoe that could capsize at any moment.
But he did gain some friendship nonetheless. Although Ultraman doesn't know it now, the benefits he could gain from befriending Abigail are beyond his wildest imagination.
Just as Otto left his room and came to the hall, the butler suddenly walked towards him, seemingly holding a letter in his hand.
"Master, this was sent by the city lord this morning."
"Sent by the city lord?"
Ott took the letter with some confusion and opened it. He couldn't understand why the group admin would suddenly send him a message. Was there something important? Or was the matter from yesterday still unresolved?
After opening the letter, Otto looked at its contents with some confusion. The letter mentioned that he hoped Otto could take Abigail to the inner city. It seemed that the commander of the Third Mech Regiment wanted to meet Abigail.
"Butler, what do you think is the meaning behind the contents of his letter?"
The butler took the letter and looked at its contents.
"Master, I also can't figure out what the city lord is up to."
"Anyway, since he asked me to take Abigail there, I'll go and see what's going on. If yesterday's matter hasn't been resolved, I'll just have to give up some more benefits."
"Sir, I really don't understand what value that little girl named Abigail has. Although I am not knowledgeable, I hope you can answer this for me."
"You don't need to ask about that anymore. Miss Abigail is worth my effort. Let me tell you, whatever Miss Abigail asks for, you must fulfill her request and never neglect her."
Seeing Otto's serious warning, the butler knew all too well the gravity of the matter.
"Yes, don't worry, sir, I understand."
"Good, is Miss Abigail still sleeping?"
"No, Miss Abigail got up early this morning. She said she wanted to see what fun things there were to do in Seko, so she has already left."
"That's really troublesome. We need to find her quickly. Send someone to look for her right away, and come back to tell me once you find her. Also, prepare the supplies needed by the Third Mech Regiment, and prepare an extra 3% just in case."
"Yes, sir."
After watching the butler leave, Otto couldn't help but sigh.
Miss Abigail, you're really too restless.
Meanwhile, Abigail, the protagonist of the incident, was strolling casually down the street.
Today she really wanted to see what Seko was like. Although she had taken a brief look at the street where Jessica and the others lived, it was the poorest and most chaotic street in Seko, so it was normal for it to have such dense buildings. As for other places, she thought it was impossible for them to be built so densely.
Along the way, Abigail couldn't help but marvel at how every world has its own beauty. While beauty is universal, styles are different.
Abigail doesn't really want to cause trouble today. She had a blast yesterday, so she'll just take a good rest today.
However, sometimes you don't want to cause trouble, but trouble will come looking for you.
As Abigail was walking down the street, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in her sight.
"Isn't that Jessica?"
Abigail extended her hand, ready to greet Jessica, but Jessica seemed to be avoiding something, running quickly toward Abigail.
As Abigail ran past him, he grabbed her.
"Who? Who grabbed me? Let me go!"
"Jessica, why are you running so fast? Is something urgent?"
Jessica recognized the voice and turned around, only to find it was the little girl she had rescued yesterday. Wow, she was really strong!
"Abigail? What are you doing here? This is not the time to talk. Let go of me right now, someone is chasing me."
Jessica said somewhat flusteredly.
"Chasing you? Don't worry, if someone really does come after you, I'll take care of it for you."
"You'll help me solve this? Then you shouldn't get involved. It won't do you any good. Just let me go. I can escape their pursuit."
"You want me to release them? I'm not going to. Don't worry, I fought and won against those guys from the 3rd Mech Regiment yesterday. They're just some lackeys. Watch me blow them all to smithereens."
In Abigail's mind, the only people who could pursue Jessica were petty thugs, whom Abigail could easily deal with.
"You're just bragging. You even defeated the Third Mech Regiment? You should know that they are all elites of the Empire. Any one of them is no less than a knight from a noble family."
"Just you wait and see."
Seeing Abigail's confident demeanor, Jessica still didn't quite believe it. However, Abigail had grabbed her, and she couldn't run away even if she wanted to.
Not long after, a group of people were indeed chasing after them from the direction Jessica had run from. However, upon seeing these people, Abigail dismissed her previous guess.
The clothes these people were wearing were not something petty thugs would have; they were all made of such high-quality materials, and their uniforms made them look like members of the military.
"Young Miss, please stop being stubborn. Come back with us now. You can't escape this time. The city lord has given a death order that we must bring you back today."
Among the group, the man who appeared to be the leader stepped forward and spoke to Jessica, while the others around him surrounded Abigail and Jessica.
"Jessica, it seems your identity is not simple."
Jessica didn't reply; instead, she looked at the captain in front of her and spoke loudly.
"I don't want to go back! I'm determined to get my mecha pilot's license. I don't want to marry someone from the Eric family. I'll decide my own future."
“Young Miss, please stop being so willful. What’s wrong with the eldest son of the Eric family? He’s gentle and refined, exceptionally talented, and even a member of the Imperial Guard. What is it about him that you don’t like?”
"I just don't like the fact that you've arranged a marriage for me so casually. You only care about him because he's a member of the Imperial Guard, right? I'll show you that I can do it too."
Abigail watched the unfolding events from the sidelines. Frankly, this development was rather melodramatic in a way. If the story had followed the usual formula, wouldn't Jessica have passed her mecha pilot certification exam, joined the army, accumulated a series of military achievements, ultimately gained the emperor's favor, joined the royal guard, and then returned home to humiliate him?
"Young lady, please stop being so willful. You can never become a member of the royal guard. Piloting a mecha is not as simple as you think."
"Do you really think I don't know how difficult it is to pilot a mecha? But I'm confident. Okay, stop trying to persuade me. My mind is made up."
"Young Miss, the city lord has already spoken. Even if we have to tie you up, we will tie you up and take you back. Please don't make things difficult for us anymore."
After speaking, the captain nodded to the team members around him as a gesture.
The team members then began to surround Jessica.
"Don't come any closer..."
Although Jessica wanted to fight back, she couldn't possibly be a match for this group of burly men.
"Abigail, didn't you say you were in charge of them? What are we going to do now?"
Looking at the impenetrable wall of people around her, Jessica could only place her last hope on Abigail.
"Oh, sorry, I got a little too engrossed in the show. I'll take care of these people for you right now."
"Who are you? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
Noticing Abigail, the captain spoke to her with a grim expression. However, he didn't take Abigail seriously; what could a little girl who looked only 12 years old do?
However, what happened next completely overturned his understanding.
What just happened?
Not only the captain, but Jessica was also completely bewildered.
Just moments ago, in the blink of an eye, the group surrounding them was suddenly sent flying. They crashed onto the road nearby, appearing to be in pain.
"See, that solves it. Do you want me to solve that guy's problem for you too?"
Abigail then pointed to the stunned captain and asked.
"No need, he can't stop us by himself, let's go."
"Who exactly are you? Do you even know who Miss Jessica's father is? He's the lord of Seko! Are you really sure you want to get involved in this?"
"So what if he's the city lord? Even if the emperor came, I wouldn't give him a second thought."
After saying that, Abigail grabbed Jessica and turned to leave. The captain probably knew that it would be futile to chase after her, so he didn't follow. Instead, he took out something that looked like a telephone from his pocket.
Even after walking a distance, Jessica was still a little uneasy and kept looking back. However, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the other party was not chasing after her.
"Abigail, what did you just do? How did all those people fly out all at once?"
Jessica asked with some curiosity, "Well, that was really amazing."
"Don't worry about it, it's just a little trick."
"Oh."
Seeing that Abigail seemed unwilling to answer, Jessica didn't ask any more questions. After all, she was a noble lady and understood these things.
"So, what are your plans for the future? You're not really going to do what you said you're going to do, are you?"
"Of course! I'm going to show them that I'm not just a tool for marriage alliances. After I get my mecha pilot certification, I'll join the military. One day, I'll make them look at me with new eyes."
Listening to Jessica's plans, could it be that Jessica is the protagonist of this world? Then my luck is incredibly good. It can't be that coincidental, can it?
While Abigail was lost in her fantasies, Jessica was considering other things. Since her father, the city lord, had given a death order to bring her back, even the slums were probably no longer safe.
"Speaking of which, that boy you were with before must have had some kind of status, right?"
"Oh, you mean Buddy? Buddy's full name is Buddy Roy. Hearing that should give you some clues."
"Roy..."
Abigail then thought about it and felt that the surname did seem somewhat familiar.
"Oh, I remember now."
Abigail punched her left hand with her right hand.
"Isn't Roy that old man's last name? Jessica, could that boy be the son of Ultraman?"
"You know Uncle Ultra?"
Jessica was a little confused.
"Yes, I just met him yesterday. He's a pretty nice older man."
Abigail remarked casually that he now understood why Buddy and Jessica could hang out together; they were a perfect match, and perhaps they were even childhood sweethearts who had played together since they were little.
"By the way, Jessica, what do you think of Buddy?"
"What do you mean by how you see him? You mean him as a person? He's a pretty good guy, just a little timid, but overall he's a great friend."
