The knights pounded their breastplates with force, producing a synchronized 'bang' sound.

Their bowed heads spoke volumes.

Li Aili's lips couldn't help but curl upwards.

Her heavy mood eased a little, and she cleared her throat awkwardly. "Alright, Joanna, let's restore the basic municipal buildings of Emerald City first."

...

So the Duke looked at his wife, who was being carried back because she was exhausted, and his handsome face was like an iceberg with snow that never melts.

His every step stirred up a cold wind, and then he forcefully pulled Li Aili, who was on the back of the squire, into his arms.

"What's going on? I need an explanation."

Since getting married, His Highness the Duke has never been this angry.

Li Aili weakly raised one finger, "...I can explain."

But looking at his wife, who was squinting and could fall asleep at any moment, the Duke remained silent for a moment, and finally carried her to the bedroom with a dark face.

This brings us to Emerald Castle.

Despite the heavy bombardment from the alien warships, the magic crystal castle that His Highness the Duke had built at great expense remained completely unscathed, except for a few specks of ash on its gleaming exterior.

Joanna hurriedly lifted her skirt and followed, explaining softly, "It's like this, Madam, Madam used her magical powers to restore some of the collapsed buildings in the city..."

Duke: "..."

With her eyes half-closed, Li Aili could clearly see several blue veins bulging on the hands that were holding her.

Li Aili: "..." She closed her eyes very 'peacefully'.

Very well, no one is going to wake her up today.
