Infinite Transmigration Starting from Violet

“As for clothes, you can just go shopping,” Esdeath said. “I know a royal tailor. Go see him another day, tell him my name, and he will take your measurements and make you a few suitable pieces.”

Will was taken aback, then was immediately moved.

Where can you find a boss who cares so much about their subordinates?

"Thank you, Captain... Captain is so kind!"

"Hmph, if you really want to thank me, then do your job well next time," Esdeath lowered the brim of her hat. "I still have quite a few properties under my name that I haven't been able to give away. The environment and location are quite nice. Your mother would probably like to hold her grandson there."

Will blinked.

Houses in the capital city...

Or is it under Esdeath's name...?

Esdeath's words acted as a catalyst, and Will now had only one feeling.

—Damn, it's on fire!

Night raids, terrorists—I'll arrest you all and expel you without exception!

Will felt a surge of excitement, eager to start training right now and improve his strength to the point where he could easily defeat the Night Raid team.

Black Eyes watched Will, who seemed to be on steroids, shaking his head as he ate candy.

Meanwhile, Borus ended his conversation with his wife and daughters and watched them leave under the escort of the guards.

I placed the large lunchbox my wife had brought on the table, and the moment I opened the lid, a rich aroma wafted out.

Will sniffed: "Wow, it smells so good..."

"Hmm, it looks delicious and looks amazing," Dr. Fashion commented.

"What a virtuous wife you are," Lan said with a gentle smile.

Black Eyes' eyes lit up, and suddenly the candy in her mouth didn't taste so good anymore.

"Alright, this was made by my wife. If you don't mind, please have a taste," Polus said shyly.

The bento box is filled with a variety of dishes, which are not only exquisite but also plentiful. It even thoughtfully includes a box of miso soup.

It seems the hunter team has their lunch sorted out for today.

After lunch, during a short break, Esdeath found Polus in the backyard.

He was standing on one leg in the open space; this was part of his training.

Because the Imperial Arms he uses are extremely heavy, he has to train his lower body stability.

"Polus, are you free?"

"Of course, does the captain have any instructions?" Upon seeing the captain arrive, Polus temporarily stopped training.

"Your wife's cooking is really good. How many years have you been married to her?" Esdeath asked.

Borus was somewhat flattered by Esdeath's sudden remark.

“Yes, yes, I feel so happy every time I eat the bento she makes,” Pollus said. “We’ve been married for six years. She’s amazing, and I always feel like I’m not good enough for her.”

Although it was a self-deprecating remark, judging from Borus's shy gestures, Esdeath could even see his expression through the gas mask, and he must have been very happy.

However, Borus was puzzled as to why Esdeath would suddenly bring up this matter.

“Polus, you’re the only one in our team who’s been married. I have a question for you.” After saying that, Esdes paused, as if considering something. “I have a subordinate who is very fond of a boy, but that boy already has a woman he loves. In this situation, how should I advise my subordinate?”

Upon hearing this, Polus was taken aback.

Is this person seeking my advice?

"I never expected the captain to care so much about his subordinates' happiness... I've never experienced anything like this. My wife had many suitors back then, but she didn't have anyone she particularly liked..."

"Is that so..." Esdeath did not show disappointment even though she did not receive an answer.

“However, I do have a suggestion in my opinion.” Polus raised an index finger and said seriously, “So-called happiness is something you have to fight for yourself. Even if your subordinate’s crush has someone he likes, he can still give it a try, right? After all, the two of them haven’t officially established a relationship yet, right? Of course, I’m not talking about competing through unfair means, it’s just that… it’s very difficult for a person to meet someone they truly like in their lifetime. If it doesn’t work out even after trying, at least you won’t have any regrets.”

Chapter 253 No Regrets

"Won't leave any...regrets?"

“Yes, it’s natural to like someone. I read a book that said there are over 20,000 people in the world who are your perfect match, but we may never meet one in our entire lives.” Polus’s tone was almost a sigh. “Even if the person we like has someone they love, does that mean we’ll stop liking them?”

“But if the other person doesn’t like you, then you have no choice but to stop loving them?” Esdeath asked.

This is exactly what's bothering her.

If she loves someone, she wants to control him completely.

If Lu Ye doesn't have a partner, then Esdeath will get him no matter what.

But Lu Ye already has someone she likes, and now she doesn't know what to do.

In the past, she would never have felt this confused.

However, it is precisely because she has already fallen in love with someone that she hesitates, because she now understands that when you fall in love with someone, there is no room in your heart for anyone else. Even if your love is extremely heavy and you take your heart out, you still have to see if the other person wants it.

True love is about filling each other's hearts with your own, making both of you feel happy.

But Lu Ye's heart has already been occupied by another girl.

“No, Captain,” Polus said, gazing at the distant city. “Cats love to eat fish, and have even learned to fish in rivers. But in winter, the lakes freeze over, and the cats can see the fish swimming underwater, but they can’t catch them. After trying, they have to give up. Can we say that they don’t like to eat fish? No, all they can do is let go and look for other food.”

Esdeath lowered the brim of her hat to cover her eyes; she understood the implication in Polus's words.

"You mean... I should advise my subordinates to give up?"

Is this the result of the consultation?

Esdeath felt rather uncomfortable, as if someone had pronounced a death sentence on her face.

Although I'm somewhat unwilling, that's certainly the case at present.

“Of course you can give up if you want,” Polus stroked his chin. “However…”

"but?"

"If the lake is already frozen, the kitten can wait until spring when the ice and snow melt. Anyway, the fish are in the lake, and it can't possibly run ashore. Or... it can take a pickaxe to the lake so it can have a bowl of delicious fish soup in winter."

"What you mean is...?"

“No one can replace another person in their heart, and this is especially important for the person who is loved.” Polus’s voice was tinged with laughter. “Captain, you should still advise your subordinates to work harder. I still maintain that happiness is something you have to fight for yourself.”

Esdeath's eyes lit up.

"Then, do you have any good ideas?" Esdeath asked, "For example, the secret to winning someone's heart."

“I have experience with this. If I had to say something… it would be: don’t give up!” Polus said solemnly. “Before I won over my wife, I was dumped twice. But I still seized the opportunity and won her over in one fell swoop. Remember, you can’t rush things. You have to let people slowly remember your good qualities. Don’t be too hasty, or you will put a lot of pressure on the other person.”

"Is that so? I see..."

Esdeath jotted these words down in her little notebook as she spoke.

Is there anything else?

“Other methods don’t really matter; the most important thing is perseverance and sincerity,” Polus said earnestly. “You must make the other person feel your sincerity.”

"Okay, I'll try... to pass it on to my subordinates."

Although she almost let it slip, Esdeath pretended nothing had happened and put away her notebook.

However, she still sighed inwardly.

To be honest, she is not a shy person and doesn't mind showing her love or the relationship she is pursuing to others.

If Lu Ye didn't already have someone she liked, why would she hide it like this?

It was clearly her first time in love.

But she fell in love with someone who already had a partner.

That's what made her unable to say it.

Coupled with Lu Ye's resolute refusal yesterday, although it was hard to admit, it was indeed the first time she had considered giving up.

A gentle breeze caressed the azure sky as Esdeath gazed intently at the imperial capital below from the flower-covered ground.

Fortunately, with Polus's encouragement, she made up her mind.

If you're going to pursue someone, then go all the way!

Lu Ye...

The more you resist, the more I want you.

From body to soul, it must be mine!

……

Watching Esdeath leave from the backyard, Borus scratched his head and continued his training.

Although he has a good personality, he has a strong sense of responsibility.

Since we've already failed once and can't turn back time, we should at least learn from the experience.

The night raid took place while they were changing shifts among the guards. If they were strong enough, they should have been able to detect the commotion.

"Oh my, I've heard something incredible."

Suddenly, a gentle voice came from under a large tree not far away.

Polus looked in the direction from which the sound came and was momentarily stunned.

Under the tree stood a blond man in white, handsome with a gentle smile on his face.

"Lan?" Bolus was somewhat surprised.

"I just wanted to get some fresh air after dinner," Lan shrugged. "Sorry, I really didn't mean to eavesdrop."

"It's alright." Polus waved his hand repeatedly, but the way he did it while standing on one leg, coupled with his imposing physique, made him look somewhat comical.

"That's good. I was worried you'd be angry," Ran said, looking in the direction Esdeath had left with a strange smile. "I've discovered that our captain is actually a very gentle person. He's even bothered by his subordinate's love life."

Polus scratched his head.

He felt that the "subordinates" Esdeath referred to were actually herself.

In terms of combat, he is indeed inferior to Esdeath.
