update icon Updated at 2025/3/18 18:10:11

91,

In Mr. Cyclone's mansion, there is a large backyard. Despite living in this mansion for a while, Mr. Cyclone has still left many areas unexplored or unused.

The former prime minister's mansion had an underground treasure vault, but the gold and jewelry inside had already been transferred to the royal city.

Apart from a small portion that Mr. Cyclone secretly hid, his current income mainly comes from his position as a diplomat, even though he hasn't done any significant diplomatic work.

Everything here, from food and clothing to housing and transportation, is provided by the king. The invisible responsibility gives the king absolute power over Mr. Cyclone's actions.

Of course, Mr. Cyclone is not the kind of person who blindly listens to others for the sake of money. If he truly becomes unhappy, he would have taken his two wives back to his hometown long ago.

Speaking of which, it's fortunate that Eileen and Little Dragon are not materialistic girls. It's no wonder that he likes them both so much.

"What's wrong, Daniel!?"

As they arrived in the backyard, filled with a sea of flowers, there was a white table and several chairs in the middle.

It was said that the former prime minister loved flowers, and the maintenance here has always been impeccable. Even after Mr. Cyclone took over, the servants here still dutifully take care of everything.

Sipping his tea, Daniel didn't immediately answer Mr. Cyclone.

Mr. Cyclone, although he had not witnessed this adviser's strength in battle, could already feel the slyness from the adviser's words and deeds.

Without waiting for Daniel's answer, Mr. Cyclone sat down directly. Subsequently, his two wives also stood beside him, while only Joshua stepped forward to prepare tea for Mr. Cyclone.

"..."

Neither side spoke, just looking at each other.

"Joshua, go prepare dinner for tonight."

"Yes."

Although it was only noon, Mr. Cyclone gave this order.

After Joshua left, Mr. Cyclone asked again.

"What's wrong, Daniel? Can't even trust Joshua?"

"It's not that I can't trust..."

Finally, Daniel spoke.

"It's a matter of resistance."

"Resistance?"

As Mr. Cyclone asked, he also started drinking his tea.

"Husband, what Daniel meant is probably magical resistance," Eileen explained from the side, while Little Dragon added.

"I have a natural resistance to magic."

Then, Eileen pointed to her own chest.

"Also, Eileen's body, along with the Magicite Crystal you have, can generate resistance to magic."

"Oh, I see."

Just as Mr. Cyclone began to understand the explanation from the two, Daniel chimed in.

"Well, what can we do? After all, our 'Hero of Arlen' has already caught the attention of that monster~ We need to be more cautious, you know~"

Daniel started to smirk.

It was usually fine, but today Daniel came wearing glasses, indicating that trouble couldn't be avoided.

"Daniel, don't imitate His Majesty's way of speaking, just say it clearly."

"Are you expecting me, who has created two miracles, to be so blunt?"

"Ugh! It's fine!"

"Hahaha, well, indeed it's fine."

Although there were many things that were still unclear, Mr. Cyclone was very clear about the content of this conversation.

"Two times... the first time refers to the prime minister, right? And the second time refers to... the witch?"

Daniel nodded.

That monster they were referring to was Yuna.

Just by turning around, she had instantly defeated Sonja, the captain of the Wind Knights, Little Dragon from "the Auron," and the distant magician Eileen.

It's no wonder Daniel describes it as a monster with such formidable power.

"But dark magic is really powerful!" he exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, only to be met with a dumbfounded look from Daniel.
