My wife, who's in a vegetative state, please stop eavesdropping on my thoughts.

Weiss naturally noticed the little tricks the maids around him had up their sleeves.

He just felt a strange familiarity with the word "feathered one" that Adele mentioned. 688

After all, according to Adele's explanation—

The term "feathered one" sounds like it refers to extraordinary individuals who possess the feathers of caged birds. (469)

For example—064

Own......

Thinking of this, Weiss calmly put down his teacup, then picked up the cup in front of Elune and drank from it, completely ignoring the desperate expressions on the faces of the maids behind him.

However, even after hearing the information about the sixth-tier Feathered One, Mona and the others did not show much panic.

Is evacuation truly unavoidable?

“Our Moonlit City is guarded by the Moonlit Thunder Emperor, a Rank 5 Radiant Being.”

"A few mere feathered creatures, not even the real birds in the cage, shouldn't be enough to make them this afraid, right?"

"..."

"..."

"A Tier 5 Flash? The Moonlit Thunder Emperor...?"

Adele's expression was slightly dazed.

A fleeting, visible crack appeared on the calm expression on her face.

No.

What do you mean?

I had only been away from home for a short month.

There shouldn't have been any time travel or skipping years, right?

How could a level 5 powerhouse appear out of nowhere?

Just as Adele was completely confused.

Aunt Bai, who was leaning on Weiss's shoulder, suddenly spoke meaningfully:

"After all, Adele, you haven't been home for a long time."

"A lot has happened in this short month."

“Perfect, let Weiss tell you the whole story from beginning to end.”

Weiss: Uh...

He almost forgot that his secret as the Moon Thunder Emperor had been discovered by Aunt Bai.

Although Aunt Bai wouldn't expose him, she would obviously do things like scare herself occasionally to satisfy her perverse sense of humor.

Aunt Bai was actually just trying to make a joke today.

However, Adele nodded seriously in agreement.

She looked at the white cat perched on Weiss's shoulder, a deep sadness in her eyes, and sighed silently.

"Ah."

"It seems that it has indeed been quite a long time."

"You should know—"

"Aunt Bai, you used to love leaning on my shoulder the most."

Weiss: ......

Aunt Bai: ......

The air seemed to freeze.

After standing there stunned for more than ten seconds, Aunt Bai immediately jumped off Weiss.

She hurriedly climbed into Adele's arms, and with a fawning and ingratiating tone, stomped on her soft, full breasts a few times.

"Don't say that, Adele. I just thought you hadn't rested for too long and that your neck and shoulders must be very uncomfortable, so I didn't put any pressure on you."

"Yes, I am really tired, so Aunt Bai, why don't you go play with Weiss and leave me alone..."

Aunt Bai: "......"

This was the first time Weiss had ever seen Aunt Bai so embarrassed and humiliated.

It must be said that when it comes to torturing Hakimi, Adele is the one with the most experience.

The atmosphere at the garden tea table gradually became somewhat subtle.

Adele suddenly chuckled softly:

"I was just kidding, Aunt Bai, did you really mean it? Why would I be jealous of a cute little cat?"

"Heh, heh, heh heh..."

Aunt Bai gave a few stiff, dry laughs.

As her goddaughter whom she had personally raised, she was naturally aware of Adele's cunning nature.

That outburst just now was definitely because he was jealous.

Stress is like a kitten?

Chapter 73: Number 188, Paradise Acquired!! (7K words)

After teasing Aunt Bai a little...

Adele quickly changed the subject, asking everyone present to explain in detail the deeds of the Moon Emperor.

So Vera and Mona started explaining all at once.

Weiss sat beside him, occasionally adding a comment.

After all, he witnessed the entire event both times, so his perspective is indeed very convincing.

Ailu became increasingly speechless as she listened.

No... this guy really lies without even blinking an eye.

To make a lie sound like the truth

Doesn't he secretly chuckle to himself while boasting about how powerful Diana's performance is?

In her view, Weiss simply seemed to have seamlessly switched from the first-person perspective to the third-person perspective.

Aside from Elune being rendered speechless by the prank.

Aunt Bai's expression was also very strange.

But she didn't want to wink at Weiss in front of Adele again, lest they be misunderstood as flirting or whispering to each other.

Nefert was the only one who didn't chime in.

She simply held her teacup quietly, lost in thought without saying a word.

The Seven Wonders of the World, The Bird in a Cage...

This time, including my aunt, more than forty Rain Path members traveled a long distance to gather in Moonlit City, which was indeed due to the riot in the Dark Realm.

Could it be that the city of Brightmoon, where they have lived for more than a decade, is really about to fall?

Nefertir was very conflicted.

After a short while, he listened to everyone's chatter.

Adele did not utter a single word from beginning to end.

Even after hearing about the Thunder Emperor's achievement of destroying the Divine Court's main base thousands of miles away in just one minute, and after seeing the official report in black and white from the Night Patrol Headquarters, her face did not show the slightest fluctuation.

She flipped through the report several times from beginning to end, her face expressionless.

Then, he suddenly gave an order to one of the maids behind him:

"Go and bring the calendar over."

The maid quickly brought a calendar and respectfully handed it to Adele.

She took the calendar and scanned it several times with a serious expression.

Much later.

His previously composed expression finally crumbled completely.

"No, we didn't celebrate the New Year..."

After realizing what had happened, Adele was still a little confused.

I've only been away for a month at most.

How come even Tier 5 superhumans have appeared...?

After a moment of silence, she finally had to accept this absurd reality and turned to look at Mona beside her:

"Is that Star Clock still in Moonlit City at the ninth hour?"

They just left yesterday.

"You run pretty fast..."

Adele frowned slightly.

She hesitated for a moment, then said in a serious tone:

"If the Moon Goddess is indeed a Tier 5, then all residents must be evacuated immediately."

"Otherwise, if the Moon Emperor and the Caged Bird were to engage in direct combat, I'm afraid there wouldn't be enough people here to die."

Hearing Adele's serious analysis, Weiss struggled to keep his composure.

Do not......

If a real fight breaks out, civilians won't even get a chance.

Let alone the Caged Bird of Wonders, even if any Tier 6 Feathered Warrior walked out, I, the Moon Thunder Emperor, would be reduced to blood mist in an instant.

Wei Xiao: Hahahahahahahahaha!!!

Weiss: ?

What's so funny about that?!

Just as everyone had different thoughts.

A series of slightly hurried footsteps sounded from the garden entrance.

In everyone's sight, the butler Sebastian led a panting night patrolman in quickly.

The night patrol member looked somewhat flustered, and upon seeing Adele, immediately reported nervously:

"Captain Adele, orders from headquarters!"

"The Night Patrol Headquarters has ordered that all residents of Moonlit City and the surrounding twelve towns must be forcibly evacuated from the border within half a month!"

"If you are a registered superhuman or above, you can obtain the right to reside in any central town, provided you are willing to evacuate."

Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of disbelief.

Adele's expression remained unchanged, as if she had expected this, but she pressed for an answer:

"Half a month?"

"What about the nearly one million residents of the downtown area?"

"Isn't it impossible for food distribution to keep up with demand?"

It's important to know that the city of Moonlit City alone, including the Upper and Lower districts, has a permanent population of several million.

If the population of all 12 cities were to be relocated at the same time, hundreds of thousands of people would likely die before they even arrived.

The night patrol member wiped the cold sweat from his brow: "They said they'd send reinforcements to meet us, but the night patrol members absolutely cannot stay behind, especially the level 7 superhumans."

"..."
