"My nose hurts so much," Violet calmly remarked.

"Pfft... Hahahaha!!"

Leone, standing to the side, laughed until tears streamed down her face. "Ouch, Mine, your rib hit me! Hahahaha!"

Seeing Leone laughing so heartily, her breasts jiggling, Mine blushed.

"Sorry, I'm just poor, what do you want?!"

"Eat more papaya and drink more milk," Akame said while eating a boiled egg. "I think there's a recipe for that."

“It’s useless,” Hill calmly added. “It seems to have been written in the breast enhancement secrets book that Mine bought before, but she secretly took it for two months and it didn’t work.”

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--!"

Mine felt her brain trembling. "Stop talking!!"

"It's okay."

Suddenly, Mine's head was touched.

That was Violet, who was standing on tiptoe, gently stroking Mine's head.

"What are you doing?"

Being suddenly subjected to this, Mine's already flushed face turned even redder.

“That’s what he did after I did something wrong and got told off,” Violet said as she rubbed the area. “It makes you feel at ease, not angry, not angry.”

Listening to Violet's clumsy, child-coaxing words, Mine remained silent.

Does rubbing your head make you feel better?

You're such an easily satisfied little girl!

However, this method actually worked, and Mine's mood calmed down a bit.

Violet may seem a bit slow-witted, but she's not stupid at all; on the contrary, she's quite clever and learns everything very quickly.

Did Lu Ye and she not spend much time together?

Judging from Violet's behavior, Lu Ye treated her quite well.

Moreover, he himself had no idea what had happened between Violet and him in the past.

From this perspective, Lu Ye really is somewhat wronged.

However, although a reasonable reason was guessed.

But Mine still didn't like Lu Ye.

Upon realizing this, Mine suddenly felt a pang in her heart.

Perhaps this is jealousy.

……

Late at night, Lu Ye sat on the edge of the bed, examining the heart rate monitor in his hand.

Actually, he was thinking about something.

Esdeath returned to the capital, albeit at the emperor's behest.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that this was the work of Minister Ernest.

Judging from the performance of the others, the woman named Esdeath is quite powerful.

It's unclear what she and Ernest conspired to do to deal with the night raid.

It seems necessary to hold back for now and gather intelligence on what's to come.

Given his status as a member of the security detail, it shouldn't take much effort.

Thinking about this, Lu Ye realized something else.

Although we have determined that we are on the right track, the location of the Protoss fragments is still unknown.

If I could be promoted to a higher position, I might be able to enter the palace to gather intelligence.

Regarding this, we should be able to utilize Oja's men.

Now that Oja is dead, those guys are all living in fear. If we can take this opportunity to expose their crimes and bring them all to justice...

It might be worth a try.

……

The next morning.

Just as dawn was breaking, Lu Ye's door was pushed open.

A blonde girl wearing a white silk nightgown ran over lightly, as graceful as a white deer wading across a river.

Feeling the familiar scent and weight, Lu Ye slowly opened her eyes.

The girl was lying on his chest, rising and falling with the movement of his chest.

Good morning, Violet.

"Good morning."

Lu Ye glanced at the sky outside the window. "Why are you up so early?"

“Because Mine said she wanted to make me a smart child, so I have to do special training,” Violet said. “Am I not smart enough?”

“You’re so smart,” Lu Ye chuckled, ruffling the girl’s hair and making her blonde hair all messy. “You’re incredibly smart.”

"is it?"

Violet raised her eyebrows upon receiving the "praise".

Lu Ye could tell she was very happy.

"Gurgle..."

A rumbling sound came from the girl's flat stomach.

Violet was taken aback.

I'm hungry...

"Let's go downstairs for breakfast then." Lu Ye lifted her up from under his arms. "Akame should be preparing breakfast by now."

After washing up, Lu Ye patiently combed Violet's hair.

Violet's hair is very smooth, and it's easy to comb with almost no resistance.

After finishing her hair, Violet tied her own ponytail, the headband forming a bow.

This is what Mine taught her.

During the two days that Lu Ye was operating in the capital, she not only taught Violet some life skills, but also how to dress.

These are all areas where Lu Ye is "weak".

He has no life skills to speak of, but even something as simple as dressing up can stump him.

Whether in Leiden or at the swimwear store, it was always the women who chose the clothes for Violet.

Lu Ye's job was simply to sit there and shout "So beautiful! So cool!" and then wait for the next Violet with a different style to appear.

The two went downstairs.

Upon entering the dining room, Akame was wearing an apron and placing plates of food on the table.

"You've come at the perfect time; the meal has just been prepared."

"Uh, fried rice for breakfast?"

“Yes, the ratio of meat to rice should be 50/50,” Akame said, “that way we won’t go hungry!”

"Beef fried rice? That sounds great!"

Leone's voice came from behind them. She stretched and patted Lu Ye and Violet on the shoulder, "Good morning!"

"Good morning."

Lu Ye blinked, surprised that the morning meal was such a heavyweight.

It seems Lubbock was right; Akame really does love to eat.

Incidentally, after their argument last night, although they didn't peek, they did discuss the women in the group.

The discussion covered topics such as preferences.

Hill likes to read.

Mine loves shopping.

Akame, on the other hand, likes to eat.

As the team's culinary expert, she is highly skilled at cooking and adept at handling ingredients.

Not only that, she also carries a lot of snacks with her, just in case.

Lu Ye sat down and took a bite; the fried rice was really delicious.

"What about the rest?"

"Still sleeping? If they don't wake up in half an hour, I'll feed them all!" Leone grinned mischievously.

"No way!" Akame slammed her hand on the table. "Leone, how could you do this? At least give me half!"

“Me, and me!” Violet raised her hand unusually, with a spoon still covered in rice in her mouth.

"Okay, okay, we'll split it equally among the three of us."

But their plan backfired.

Seemingly having learned from the precedent of people missing out on food due to oversleeping, others began arriving at the dining room within ten minutes.

Violet and Akame's faces showed visible disappointment.

Although there was one plate left, it belonged to Najenda, and no one dared to touch it.

Just as Akame was contemplating whether to get a beating in exchange for the plate of fried rice, the dining room door opened.

"Emergency!" Najeta exclaimed. "Everyone, assemble!"
