After saying that, Black Law smiled slightly, and dark red flames ignited all over his body.
Hoshimi Miyabi frowned, and defiantly slashed out with her sword.
The result was like a gentle breeze passing through red clouds; the blade pierced through the dark red flames the instant it touched them, and Black Mage's entire body dissipated like mist.
"You run really fast."
Hoshimi Miyabi sheathed his sword, his expression calm and composed.
"Ha~~ Does that mean all my work for today is finished? I don't want to work overtime anymore! Yuecheng... Yuecheng? What are you doing?"
Yuma, already exhausted, yawned repeatedly.
If he could, he really wanted to lie down and go to sleep right there.
However, since Yuecheng Liu, whose title is written as "Deputy Section Chief" but read as "Senior Section Chief," had not yet spoken, Yuzhen wouldn't dare to run away even if he had ten times the courage.
Otherwise, they won't approve your leave request next time!
So, Yuzhen turned to ask Yuecheng Liu, but no one answered. She then realized that Yuecheng Liu was staring blankly, seemingly lost in thought. Yuzhen had no choice but to raise her voice.
"Hmm? Oh! Sorry, I was a little distracted just now."
Yuecheng Liu pushed up his glasses, forcing back his weariness, and said, "In that case, let's call tonight's operation over. Everyone, it's time to go home and find a place to rest."
Hearing this, Eileen was a little puzzled and tilted her head, saying, "Speaking of which, I heard a lot of commotion over Wildfire Town just now. Is there still a place for us to stay?"
"Uh, there probably aren't any apartments or similar accommodations left. But it's okay, there are still tents available. And the number of tents is very limited, so it'll probably be a whole family squeezing into one!" Yuma said casually, winking at Fagga.
Before Fagar could react, Ellen suddenly became excited, her legs went weak, and she uncontrollably collapsed into Fagar's arms, burying her head in his chest to hide her guilty conscience from everyone.
Fagar instinctively hugged Elaine, hearing a muffled groan coming from his own chest.
"Faga~ I'm so sleepy, I want to go to sleep."
Faga's lips twitched, and he said irritably, "I just saw you were full of energy."
"After all, they're Shark people. One second they're full of energy, the next they're fast asleep. That's all normal."
How could the understanding Nicole not see through Ellen's true thoughts?
So Nicole went behind Fagga and shoved him forward, saying, "Okay, Fagga, take Ellen back to sleep. We might have things to do tomorrow!"
"Okay... but why do I feel like you're even more attentive than I am?"
Fagar muttered to himself, hooked his arm around Ellen's leg, lifted her up, and slowly walked towards the army near Wildfire Town.
Unbeknownst to him, Ellen, lying in his arms, had unknowingly wrapped her tail behind Fagga, with half of her tail fin curled up and the other half standing upright, making it look as if she were giving Nicole a thumbs up.
Nico remained outwardly calm, inviting Nekomata, Aokaku, Tsukishiro Ryu, and Hoshimi Miyabi to come with her, while also inviting Billy to share a tent with Yuuma.
Hoshimi Miyabi hesitated for a moment, thinking that Nico wouldn't dare to steal her sword now, so she walked over with Aokaku.
Halfway through the journey, they suddenly noticed that Yuecheng Liu seemed to have stopped.
Hoshimi Miyabi turned around and frowned slightly: "What's wrong?"
"It's alright, section chief. You guys go back to sleep first. I just received a notification that I have a meeting to attend."
With a forced smile, Tsukishiro Ryu put the still-glowing phone back into his pocket in front of Hoshimi Aya.
"What?!"
Hoshimi Miyabi's tone suddenly rose, and her ears perked up as if she had been electrocuted. She quickly took out her phone to check.
A few seconds later, Hoshimi Miyabi didn't see the so-called notification and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Even her ears visibly relaxed, and her tone returned to calm:
"Fortunately, I haven't received any notification here, so I don't need to practice [going to sleep first and then pretending to be stupid to apologize the next day]."
Yuecheng Liu smiled and said, "Section Chief, you don't need to apologize even if you don't go. Rather, the person who organizes a meeting in the middle of the night is a bit out of their mind."
"That's all for now, Section Chief. You should get some sleep."
