158,
It has been a week since receiving the note with the lilac flower.
The strongest champion of the Allen Tournament of Allen has been decided in the final match hours ago.
In the backyard of his mansion, Mr. Cyclone silently looked at the night sky.
"Tomorrow... It's the last day of the year~"
"Yes."
Little Dragon said from behind, and Mr. Cyclone simply responded.
A gentle breeze started blowing, and Little Dragon gently put a thick coat on Mr. Cyclone.
"Be careful not to catch a cold."
"Yes."
During this week, Mr. Cyclone has been busy every day.
In addition to his daily routines as an experienced driver in the morning and evening, he has also taken on new tasks given by Daniel.
Rather than calling it a task, it's more like helping Daniel share some of his work.
As the final match approaches, more and more outsiders enter the city of Allen.
The inspections in the city have become more stringent, and Daniel's preparations behind the scenes require more support. Mr. Cyclone naturally helps Daniel deal with troublesome merchants.
Although it is nothing for Mr. Cyclone, as they are just lecherous individuals, he can handle the conversations easily. However, it seems that Daniel is not good at dealing with conversations full of sexual references.
In name, it's complex diplomatic work, but in reality, all Mr. Cyclone needs to do is persuade those merchants to buy the carriages.
Yes, buying a large amount of cheap ingredients can be used as military provisions for the upcoming war, but Daniel repeatedly reminds Mr. Cyclone that buying carriages is the most needed.
Mr. Cyclone does not understand warfare, and can only understand it from the perspective of an ordinary civilian.
However, since Daniel said not to worry about it, Mr. Cyclone doesn't pay attention and obediently buys the carriages.
Of course, after bargaining, the extra funds naturally become Mr. Cyclone's spoils of war.
"Miss Bettina was quite domineering today~ even though she ended up losing in the end."
"Yeah, those two blew up the arena. I was scared to death at the time."
"Hahaha~ It's fine, it's fine. You escaped quickly with me and Eileen, didn't you?"
"Damn! Why would I stay and watch the show without running?"
"Hahaha~"
After laughing with Little Dragon for a while, Mr. Cyclone's mood also eased.
"Bettina is an ambassador sent by the Elf tribe, so it's strange if she's not strong. Even if she doesn't participate in the tournament, she will assist King Allen as one of the fighting forces."
Little Dragon didn't respond to Mr. Cyclone because it was something Little Dragon didn't know.
"On the other hand, the kid Daniel brought is also a monster."
Mr. Cyclone looked at the starry sky and said sincerely.
"Unknowingly, more and more powerful people are gathering."
"Yes, unknowingly, we have been together for half a year..."
At this moment, Little Dragon walked to Mr. Cyclone's side and hugged his arm.
"We still have a long way to go after this~"
Mr. Cyclone said half-jokingly, but Little Dragon listened and hugged tighter.
"Yes~♡"
In the afternoon, after meeting with the merchants, Mr. Cyclone also had his own activities.
Every night, he followed the address given by Miss Lilac and visited the Barcelona Guild that was burned three years ago.
He also checked the old house of Barcelona, where the deceased person was, and found a secret underground passage between the old house and the guild.
Not only did it explain the scene outside the Barcelona Guild, but it also revealed more about the truth of the fire three years ago.
A series of fragments from three years ago, what Mr. Cyclone got, was a terrifying past.
The Allen Martial Arts Tournament has ended, and tomorrow, peace will be restored among the thrones.
"Don't stay here too late. We have to get up early tomorrow."
"Forget it~ Seriously, on the last day of the year, they still want to hold an early meeting? It would be better to take one more day off~"
Mr. Cyclone hugged Little Dragon's hand and once again looked at the infinite starry night, quietly contemplating.
