Chapter 55 Chapter 55 Hide and seek master!

Finney: Okay, okay, I'll let you sue--

"Ah! Second brother, aren't you going through the training ground procedures?"

Are you just going to beat me like that?

This one is really hard to beat——

"Brother, save me!"

Frey stretched out his hand. The young Crown Clan member who usually had no expression seemed very powerless in the struggle between the first and second combat forces of the Crown Clan.

Finally, Finny was so panicked that he jumped down from the third floor of the palace.

Amos, who only held Finney's coat in his hand, said: ...

As expected of Finny, even escaping is so fresh and refined.

"Ouch, he didn't even use his wings."

Fei Man leaned against the window and looked down, watching Finny fall into the grass, then climb up covered with leaves, only glance upstairs, and then slip away.

“You’re still young.”

Meilun had come in and sat on the sofa next to the cub, poured himself a cup of tea, and sighed.

He is old, he is incompetent, he is exhausted, and he needs to stay with his cub and feel the vigorous vitality!

"But let Finney teach you everything. Are you sure?"

This is too unreliable.

Amos was looking downstairs with his eyes slightly narrowed. There was a bit of silence on his handsome face, which was casual and a little fierce. The strict demands he always had on himself made Amos' back straight. The outline of muscles under the black military uniform could be vaguely seen. The military uniform he wore today was a bit like a windbreaker style, with a very long hem. He didn't button it, and it was connected in the middle with a golden chain. Just now, in order to beat Finny, the noble Amos rolled up his sleeves.

The veins on the back of his hand were slightly bulging as he picked up Finny's coat and finally threw it casually on a chair not far away.

"He dealt with those places of the Bell Alliance Army very quickly before. I thought he was a little more reliable."

"What a pity. It looks like it was just his weird luck that caused this."

Meilun smiled and shrugged, adding fuel to the fire.

"As an elder brother, His Majesty Amos must educate His Highness Finny properly."

Amos agreed.

The little cub, who was sitting on the sofa and answering Amos's question, was trying hard to suppress a sneeze. He had no time to pay attention to his surroundings, but when he heard the news that his uncle had jumped down from the upstairs, his eyes widened, and he suppressed his sneeze halfway through.

Xiao Chuzao holding the handkerchief: ...

Ah... it's so uncomfortable QAQ

But I want to see what my third uncle is like.

The cub jumped down from the sofa and walked to the window. He stood on tiptoe and grabbed the edge of the window with his little hands, trying to reach up and take a look.

But the edge of the window was too high for the little cub.

The little wings that had been lazing around behind the little guy for a long time trembled, ready to take off with the cub.

Fei Man, who was standing next to the cub, gently picked up the little guy.

The cub slowly opened his eyes.

He first looked at Fei Man, then looked downstairs.

All I saw was Uncle San running away.

Then he turned around and saw Fei Man's staring eyes.

Feiman's appearance is as deceptive as Finny's. One looks calm and steady but is actually active inside, while the other looks sunny and cheerful but is actually dark and twisted.

Xiao Chuzao's face became white and tender during this period. Fei Man stared at it for a long time, and this time she was very polite.

"Zao Zao, your aunt is going to die from your cuteness, really, please let me kiss you, just once——"

It has been a long, long time since I kissed my aunt!!!

Auntie’s thoughts on kissing Xiao Zaozao are so twisted!

If she can’t kiss Xiao Zaocao anymore, she’ll give her a big kiss when she can’t bear it anymore!

She wants both the human-looking and the white ball-looking—she hasn’t even kissed the little white ball yet!

Fei Man said such 'hehe' content in a very calm tone.

Although he couldn't hear Fei Man's inner voice, Fei Man's distorted mental power made Xiao Chuzao feel a chill on his spine.

Broken! It fell into my aunt's arms!

Xiao Chuzao clasped his little wings behind him. He really wanted to refuse.

But he always felt that he would regret it if he refused this time.

So Xiao Chuzao tucked her wings together and whispered, "Give me a kiss."

A moment later, Chu Zao, who had been kissed several times, sat on the small sofa with his little wings pricked up and looking puffed up.

Kissing maniac!!

Feyman was driven away by Amos, and Frey just went after Finny.

At this moment, besides Xiao Chuzao, there were also Anya and Meilun in the room.

Melun was still planning his itinerary - "Let's go see Hel and Morlo this afternoon. Their spiritual weapons must not have been bitten by Algae -"

Zao Zao only eats Amos's now.

There were very few members of the Crown Clan who had been eaten by Algae, and before, the Crown Clan had always been terribly resistant to the idea of ​​the little guy biting on divine weapons. Now that the little guy didn't take the initiative to eat, although they watched him eagerly, they were stubborn and didn't offer it to him.

so--

He wants to show off!

The cub calmed down, and he once again held his handkerchief and began to prepare for the big sneeze that had been interrupted several times.

Anya coughed lightly at this moment. He watched as Finny got the right to teach the little cub archery. Fei Man didn't even pretend, and kissed Zao Zao whenever he got the chance. Only he - only he -

The first one we met, but the one with the lowest presence!

Anya thought carefully for a while, then he moved closer to the cub little by little.

"Well, actually, my uncle has also been learning archery recently. Since Finny probably won't be back this afternoon, why don't I try to teach you...?"

Little Chu Zaomu stared blankly ahead, he opened his little mouth: "Ah..."

Anya: ...?

Anya: "Actually, I didn't come here to learn on purpose, I just have some free time sometimes."

Anya: "Believe me, I don't have any other thoughts, but I have put in some effort."

Anya: "Also, you are a cub of our Crown Clan, and this is what I should do."

Anya: "It is only natural that the elders of the tribe support your growth."

Anya: "After all, you are going to become the new Saint Cass Emperor."

Anya: "Okay, okay, I'll apologize to you again. I shouldn't have said you looked like a cockroach. I'm the cockroach, okay?"

Anya: "You've already thrown the crown at me, what else are you dissatisfied with? If you don't say anything, I'm leaving—"

Anya: "Am I really leaving?...Ah, I'm sorry, I was wrong, okay? So what are you doing? Give me a..."

Cub: "Ah————Sneezy————!!!"

Huhu, it feels so comfortable!

Xiao Chuzao looked up blankly and met Anya's eyes.

"Uncle, what were you talking to Zao Zao just now? There was too much, and Zao Zao wasn't paying attention—"

Anya: ...

Listen to the sound of Anya's defense breaking.

Mei Lun, who was watching the whole process, was laughing so hard that his shoulders were shaking.

Anya turned his head stiffly and slowly to look at Meilun.

Anya: ... "Don't tell anyone, please, Uncle Meilun."

Meilun finally burst into laughter.

Amos, who came in a step later, looked at Anya who was broken down, Meren who was laughing, and the little cub who was sitting in the middle of the sofa and wiping his nose with a little confusion.

What's wrong?

Is this an outbreak of a special infectious disease targeting the crown clan?

Amos paused, then he slowly walked forward, picked up the cub, and left quickly.

Don't affect his cub.

As for my younger brother and uncle?

fine.

Very healthy, will not die.

*

More than an hour later.

The cub was carried to the training ground by Amos.

The halo above the little guy's head shook, and he asked Amos curiously.

"partner?"

"Well, yes, friends who are a few years older than you can be said to be partners--"

Amos thought about it and explained to the cub.

"They are all the top students of this generation of the First Army. After Zao Zao gets to know them well, she can develop them into her own force and send them to various places she wants to control."

“Ah…”

The cub was only five years old, and he had only lived in this environment for less than half a year. He was growing very fast, but he had not yet grown to this point. He was confused when he heard these things, and just hugged Amos' neck with his little hands and asked softly.

"Are you a friend?"

The little guy's wings flapped gently.

"Zao Zao didn't have any friends before."

His big eyes sparkled: "They all don't want to play with Zao Zao."

In the past five years of Xiao Chuzao's life, approaching with full expectation and leaving with dejection has been the main theme of Xiao Chuzao's life.

He had never met an angel who would accept him in the angel realm, and all the little angels of his age looked at him strangely.

friend?

At that time, I was like a family member, I could only watch others possess things from afar, but I could not grasp them at all.

And now the little cub is very satisfied.

He has so many family members. [Zizi draws a big circle]

Already have a lot.

He is very content.

Amos just let out a breath of foul air slowly.

"Well, Zao Zao is still young now, but she will have it in the future."

The cub flapped its little wings and saw the training ground in the distance.

Before getting closer, the cub slowly opened his eyes. He had already seen a ten-year-old boy standing on the equipment and doing flexibly training. It's not that he could tell his appearance or expression from this distance, but the little guy's sensitivity to mental power made him feel the oppression from the other party from a distance.

It’s not that the other party did it on purpose, it’s just that his mental power is very strong, so the mental power leaked intentionally or unintentionally is enough for sensitive people to notice.

"Here it comes - is that His Majesty Amos? The one in His Majesty Amos's arms must be - the little prince."

Peng Liang shouted silently, calling Yun Songquan and Chao Huangmu who were still training to look over.

Yun Songquan subconsciously stopped what he was doing, but Chao Huangmu, who was training on the equipment, did not stop at once. He was about to drop his hands to the ground, but before that, he looked over there.

Chao Huangmu only remembered the cute little face of the little cub he had seen before, and later on the trembling but handsome little figure in the replays.

It’s hard to describe what I felt when I first saw this little prince.

It's like living in a daze, just demanding yourself with the goal of being the first, but finding it is too simple, the whole world becomes boring again, and then you discover something exciting.

Chao Huangmu was very surprised that he was actually a cuteness-conscious person.

Being able to see little Chuzao grow up, his heart, which had never been disturbed, actually began to get excited.

This time, Chao Huangmu felt a little bit of empathy for the feelings of the residents of Saint Cass towards the Crown Clan.

But when he looked over, he saw that the cub's symptoms caused by pollen had not completely subsided. The medical staff said there was no problem, but the cub was still holding a handkerchief in his hand in case of emergency. A gust of wind blew over, and the little guy seemed to pause for a moment while looking at something. His hand loosened, and the handkerchief flew up and stuck to the cub's small halo.

Xiao Chuzao came back to his senses and tried twice to grab it without success. So he decided to go all out and took off the crown entirely and got the handkerchief back.

Chao Huangmu, who had not yet gotten down from the equipment, said: ...?

The two people who were waiting to salute excitedly, as well as the instructor next to them: …

No, wait a minute, if I remember correctly, the crown of the Crown Clan cannot be taken off, right? !

Why can you take it down?!

Is that ok?!

Chao Huangmu is an orphan who carries genes from other races. He came to Saint Cass at the age of five and was taken in and accepted by Saint Cass. His mental power is special and strong, so he can empathize with the importance of the crown of the Crown Clan.

Chao Huangmu was so shocked that he let go and flew out.

"Ah...Brother Mu..."

Peng Liang stretched out his hand helplessly.

Muge took off.

Chao Huangmu reacted in mid-air and quickly adjusted his posture, but it was a little too late. He rolled on the ground for several times in a mess, then stopped in the dust, ran towards Amos, and finally knelt on one knee and stopped in front of Amos.

AMOS: ...

Xiao Chuzao:……?

The little cub poked its little head out to look.

"Your Majesty, your Highness——"

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I was a little slow in responding."

The young man's clear voice, still a bit childish, came out. Even though he had encountered such a thing, he still sounded calm and seemed reliable overall.

Zhao Huangmu lowered his head, his mind full of - his handsome and sunny appearance... No, there, anymore!!

What was that just now?

What is that? !

The instructor in charge of them couldn't help but laughed while shaking his shoulders.

Amos smiled too.

"Get up."

The little cub was also put down by Amos.

The cub looked curiously at the big brother who "rolled" all the way to him.

He looked at the handkerchief in his hand that he had not yet used to wipe his nose, then looked at Chao Huangmu's face covered in dust, and handed him the handkerchief.

As the young cub spoke, the wings behind him flapped unconsciously, as if the young bird had not yet gotten rid of the cute habit of begging for food: "Here, wipe it off. Algae has never been used before."

Chao Huangmu took the handkerchief.

He quickly glanced at the little cub's face and said, "Thank you."

He spoke with a natural smile, a cheerful and friendly smile that made it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

We are here today just to meet each other. The little one can come and play with them after their training.

And according to their age, the cubs will be admitted to the first army class, but they do not need to attend classes every day. Many contents are taught by people in the Crown Clan, and they are mainly enrolled there. There are also some unique courses for the little ones to learn and meet more people of the same age.

This is also what the Crown Clan has considered.

There are no other crown clan members of the same age around the cub, so he can only communicate more with outsiders.

But there is a small problem, even though the age difference is only four or five years.

But the little cub was too short, and the boys were very tall, so the cub had to tilt his little head up to look at them.

Little Chuzao was a soft little creature with its wings folded behind it and a beautiful little halo on its head, which stunned the three of them.

After the brief introduction, there was silence for a moment.

Peng Liang wanted to say something, but he realized that - mouth, move your words, what about the next sentence? Say the words? !

"This, this is my gift to your Highness."

Yun Songquan stepped forward first, and the usually calm and steady boy stuttered a little as he handed a few books to Xiao Chuzao.

The cub took it subconsciously and took a look: "Thank you... Yun Songquan?"

The cub has been learning to read with Teacher Hull recently and has already learned quite a few words.

At this moment, looking at the list handed over by the instructor, the cub looked up at Amos expectantly.

Amos was very supportive: "Yeah, yes, Zao Zao is amazing."

The wings behind the cub flapped proudly.

Then he looked at the nervous Peng Liang.

He had never learned the character "Peng", but since Peng Liang had just introduced himself, this name was easy to remember: "Peng Liang."

"right."

Amos nodded again.

Then the cub saw his name in Chao Huangmu's expectant gaze.

Xiao Chuzao: ...

As for the slightly more complicated names, Xiao Chuzao couldn't remember them all at once, and he didn't recognize these three characters.

Then there was silence, a long silence.

Sorry, Zao Zao is still semi-illiterate QAQ

Chao Huangmu: ...I'm sorry my name is so complicated QAQ

The instructor of the trio gave them some rest time, and Amos stood not far away and watched, watching the three of them stay in front of the little guy, talk to the little cub, smile at Huang Mu with his little fangs showing, and teach the little guy to recognize his name.

When the little guy goes to the military academy to register, these three will follow him.

Amos watched from behind for a long time and felt that his own child was actually quite nervous when he went out to socialize.

The afternoon passed quickly.

Xiao Chuzao still has classes to attend. After the training of the three is completed, they will return to the military academy. There will be a small assessment on campus recently, and they still need to participate.

When the three of them walked out of the royal court, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"I didn't think so when I was far away before - but now I'm closer... it's too small, isn't it?! Oh my god, oh my god, I listened to you and prepared a lot of compliments, but none of them came in handy. To be honest, I've never heard you make such a loud noise before, it's a bit disgusting."

Peng Liang shook his shoulders and looked at Chao Huangmu.

Looking at Huangmu who was holding the cub's handkerchief in his pocket, his expression was bright without a trace of sinisterness, and he pushed Peng Liang away.

"Go away—don't delay my search for the fortune-teller."

Peng Liang:?

Yunsongquan:?

"Why are you still looking?"

"It's very effective!" Chao Huangmu looked at them, "The young prince gave me a handkerchief and said that when I turned over just now, I saw something shiny on my body. He asked me what it was and he was impressed by me!"

Zhao Huangmu was still smiling, that youthful smile: "Of course, you won't understand."

Peng Liang: …

Yun Songquan: ...

"Show off!"

"Laughing and mocking you is taking it to the extreme."

"I really deserve a beating——"

"Do you really believe in that fortune teller? How about this, you recommend it to me and I'll see if it's really that useful—"

Peng Liang and Yun Songquan chased forward.

The communicator on Peng Liang’s waist lit up.

Peng Liang subconsciously picked it up and took a look at it, his expression paused.

"What's wrong?"

Yun Songquan realized that something was wrong with his expression and asked in a low voice.

"My grandfather's health has been bad recently... My father sent me a message saying that my grandfather has been in a coma three times this week. A starship that one of my grandfather's assistants was on disappeared, and the old man was so anxious that he is still in a coma."

Peng Liang frowned.

Peng Liang’s grandfather was a famous agricultural expert in the Saint Cass Empire, and he had problems with his mental strength in his early years.

Although they also live on the Imperial Star, they live in a remote area and guard countless fields.

Yun Songquan was also silent for a moment.

"Why don't you find time to visit him? As for the missing starship, the military will take care of it."

*

And Xiao Chuzao is in class.

This is a lesson about bows and arrows.

Amos kicked Finny away temporarily and decided to see for himself what the cub had learned recently.

"Did your uncle teach you?"

The cub looked up at Amos.

"Um."

Amos and Anya stood together and nodded.

The latest task for Finny is to let the cubs feel how to use the power used in the last live broadcast again.

The cub closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then stretched out his little hand, and he gently held it.

Under the golden light, his Cupid's bow is slowly gathering.

The warm golden light shines on the little cub's cheek, making it look extremely holy.

Now the first signs of it were visible—Amos thought the scene looked familiar.

The cub raised the bow handsomely, pulled the string, a golden halo shone brightly, and the arrow in his hand flew out all of a sudden - there was no surprise at all, this was love and peace.

Well, very shining love and peace.

Without aiming at the target, the mental power of the small arrow hit the target, causing no damage, but exploding a small piece of Brin Brin.

Handsome, but not intimidating at all.

AMOS: ...

Anya: ...

The little cub looked up at Amos, his eyes wide with anticipation.

AMOS: ...Oh, the shiny version of Finny.

He should have anticipated it sooner.

"Is this what your third uncle taught you?"

The cub raised a soft smile and sold Finny without hesitation: "Uncle San said that being handsome is the right thing to do. Being handsome can help you find your form."

AMOS: … “Very good.”

Finney, who was handling affairs, suddenly felt a chill on his back.

After dinner, Finny was dragged by Amos to the training ground and taught a lesson.

The little cubs have some digestion activities after dinner. After a simple walk and exercise, Hull plays games with him, which is also a way of exercise for the Crown Clan cubs. Cubs of this age will also be interested in hide-and-seek, and hiding their mental strength is a subject that they must continuously exercise from an early age.

Hull sat in the living room and gave the cub time to hide. After a while he would start looking for it and at the same time judge whether the little guy's mental strength was well hidden. Since he was always found at the beginning, the little guy had made a lot of progress.

On the training ground, Amos walked down from the platform and gently pulled his sleeve. Finney was already lying down, looking up with a look of despair on his face. Finally, he got up, limped behind Amos, and walked towards Dwight's palace.

They met Frey who had returned on the way. Anya and Feiman had already returned to the palace early.

Frey has received updated news.

"Recently, many starships have disappeared near the former Bell Alliance starfield. We received a report this morning that a civilian starship of Saint Cas was missing, and hundreds of passengers and the starship were missing. At noon, we mobilized the nearest military forces to search for them. They said they didn't find any information from the time they arrived. We don't know if it was the star pirates who formed after the Bell Alliance became chaotic, or if it was something else related."

Amos looked over—

"No news?"

"Yes."

"The defeat of the Boer Alliance is closely related to the Anthem Organization. In that star region, the suspicion of the Anthem Organization cannot be ruled out."

Amos' eyes darkened.

Following behind Amos, Finny, who had been laughing all day long and never looked serious, suddenly lost his smile. He looked up again, and his baby face was full of gloom. He tilted his head slightly, with a sharp light in his eyes, and his temperament became calm and steady at that moment: "Second brother, do you need me to go and take a look?"

"Search first."

Amos ordered.

"Judge the situation clearly. If necessary, Finny, you and Feman will lead the search teams separately."

"yes."

*

Near the Bell Alliance star field.

On a starship.

"Do we have enough consumables for this experiment?"

The cloaked man sat at the command seat and asked quietly.

"It's so messy here now, I can just randomly find some supplies and I shouldn't be discovered."

"Yes, sir, it is enough, but we hijacked a Sancas starship this morning. Should we let it go?"

"Let it go?"

The man stood up suddenly.

"Saint Cass, the Crown Clan - hehe... why let them go? Let the lab we funded use the latest research technology on them, let them see clearly the fate of the Boer Alliance ruled by the Immortals, and use non-coercive and coercive means to persuade them to rebel. I still don't believe it - the Crown Clan was lucky enough to escape once, can they escape a second time? Can Saint Cass still be a solid block?"

*

Saint Cass Emperor Star, the Royal Court.

Amos and others have arrived at the palace.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Anya and Fei Man standing at the door.

Seeing the three of them come in, the two men made a gesture to ask them to be quiet.

"Zao Zao's spiritual power was hidden for a long time this time, and Teacher Heer hasn't found it yet."

However, just as he said this, the little cub's mental strength fluctuated.

Fei Man burst into laughter instantly.

"Okay, that's enough. Let's go and find Zao Zao."

Finny felt the position of the little cub and felt a little confused.

"Why are you hiding there?"

The moment Amos entered the palace, he covered the entire palace with his mental power. He sensed something, raised his eyebrows slightly, and walked in front.

Hull, who was on the second floor, also noticed the cub's location and went downstairs.

Several members of the Crown Clan came to a small corner of the terrace on the first floor.

There is a small table here, on which are placed various processed documents that have not yet been sent out. In the angle between the small table and the wall next to it, there is a small hole, about half a meter from the ground.

In...here?

Are you a master at hide-and-seek?

"Is this turned into a small ball and stuffed in?"

"Zao Zao, come out."

Being found, the hiding little Chu Zao blinked his eyes and trembled his little wings, but in this place he could only stick to his body and it was difficult to get out.

“Ouch~”

Got it.

The cub's muffled little voice came out from the hole.

Then, out of the hole came out a... little dragon's tail?

The hole was not big, and the cub dived headfirst into it and couldn’t turn around, so this was the only way to get out.

So, including Hull, a group of the crown clan watched as the little white ball's little butt came out, and the two short legs behind it probed down, once on the left, once on the right, once on the left, once on the right, the little feet were stretched straight, and the toes and tail were exerting force.

——But the legs are short and can’t reach the ground.
