The not-so-long night passed quickly, and as the moon set, a ray of morning light shone on Number One, who was sitting in front of the dressing table.
Contrary to what the First Prince had expected, none of the royal ministers came to disturb Bai Xue's sleep in the room all night.
"Brother Li? Is it already dawn?"
Bai Xue rubbed her slightly purple eyes, looked at the figure in front of the dressing table, and spoke softly.
Upon hearing Bai Xue's voice, Number One opened his eyes, stiffly stood up, and after stretching his body which had been sitting upright all night, replied with a hint of drowsiness in his voice:
Yes! Good morning.
As they were talking, they pulled back the curtains. Number One glanced at the watch on his arm and realized it was already eight o'clock in the morning.
Just then, a few soft knocks sounded inside the room.
Upon hearing the knock, Bai Xue instinctively shrank back, buried herself under the covers, and turned to look at Number One.
Number One was aware of Bai Xue's fear, so he nodded gently, indicating that she shouldn't be afraid, and then walked towards the door.
Unlike Snow White, who would always check who was coming through the peephole before opening the door, Number One simply opened the door casually.
The person standing in front of the door was not the one Number One was thinking of, but an ordinary maid dressed in the attire of a royal palace maid, carrying a plate of food in her hand.
"Excuse me for disturbing the guests, this is breakfast for them."
As the maid finished speaking respectfully, Number One took the tray from her hand, gestured for her to leave, and then closed the door again.
"Bai Xue, this is breakfast brought by the maid. You can eat it; I'm not hungry yet."
After saying that, Number One placed the plate next to Bai Xue and gently looked at her with his eyes.
As you open the plate, wisps of steam rise from it.
"Wow, this looks delicious!" Bai Xue's eyes lit up as she looked at the food on the plate. After a night of rest and the effects of the medicine from the God's Space, Bai Xue had almost fully recovered.
On the plate was a green cake that looked like matcha, a steaming cup of milk, and a box of desserts that looked delicious.
Snow White picked up a small, red dessert and placed it in front of Number One.
"Brother Li, come and try it, see if it's good."
After saying that, he prepared to put the dessert into Number One's slightly open mouth.
Number One wanted to refuse, but seeing Bai Xue's serious gaze, she let her put the dessert in her mouth.
He gently chewed the dessert in his mouth. Although it wasn't as delicious as he had imagined, it was still a gift from Snow White, so he said happily:
"It's delicious. I'm not hungry. You eat, Bai Xue. We still need to gather at the open space later."
Yes, since they are now in the Navy, they will need to gather at the airfield tomorrow morning, unless there are special circumstances, to await the lieutenant colonel's orders.
"Mmm~" Bai Xue responded softly, and began to eat the thing that looked like matcha cake. She carefully took a piece with her fork and put it in her mouth.
Bai Xue felt that this cake was the best cake she had ever eaten in her eighteen years.
Soon, in less than ten minutes, Bai Xue finished the cake on her plate. After taking a sip of milk, she said to Number One:
"Brother Li, I've finished eating, but there's still dessert left. If you're hungry, you can take it with you on the road."
As Bai Xue spoke, she stepped off the spacious silk bed.
Since it was a gathering, Bai Xue couldn't wear her formal dress, so she changed into a casual outfit.
There was no need to avoid No. 1 when changing clothes, after all, everything that needed to be seen last night had already been seen, so there was nothing to be shy about now.
When the two arrived at the open space, the other newcomers and the navy had already arrived.
Seeing this, the two of them followed their usual practice and went to their respective positions.
However, Bai Xue and her companion failed to notice the strange looks from Su Su and the other newcomers.
Just as everyone was sweating profusely from the sunlight, the tall Lieutenant Colonel Frey walked over.
Lieutenant Colonel Frey glanced at Snow White, who seemed completely unharmed, though he was slightly puzzled as to why her injuries had healed so quickly.
But he didn't say it at that moment, looking at the few newcomers in front of him who looked sickly just from standing for a few tens of minutes.
Lieutenant Colonel Frey shouted at the crowd:
"Soldiers! If you can't even maintain the most basic formation, I think you shouldn't be in the navy!"
But everyone seemed to ignore the lieutenant colonel and looked up at the sky.
Seeing that everyone was ignoring him and looking up at the sky, Lieutenant Colonel Frey's face showed a hint of anger, but out of curiosity, he also looked up at the sky, wanting to know what those soldiers were ignoring his words for.
When Lieutenant Colonel Frey looked up at the sky, he understood why the soldiers had ignored him.
A figure dressed in a long white robe with long hair casually cascading down his back stood suspended in mid-air high above.
Due to the sunlight and distance, Lieutenant Colonel Frey could not make out the face of the figure high in the sky.
Who is this? Why can it float in the air? Isn't Shiki still in Impel Down?
Apart from a few newcomers from the Main God Space, the rest of the Navy all had the same thought in their hearts.
Unlike the others, Number One hurriedly pulled Bai Xue down to kneel, and respectfully addressed the figure high in the sky:
"Welcome to the Immortal Master!"
Upon hearing Number One's words, Bai Xue immediately echoed them:
"Welcome to the Immortal Master!"
The other newcomers also realized what was happening and knelt down, imitating Number One, and loudly addressed the figure:
