I come from the Silver Dragon Clan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She deliberately left out her title as queen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would only create an unnecessary sense of distance between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue lifted her gaze to meet Rosvisser’s silver eyes,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her golden irises lingering on Rosvisser’s face—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if searching for something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if longing for something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long pause, Xiaoxue finally lowered her gaze again and gave a small nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She muttered a quiet, “Mm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser glanced at the photo in Xiaoxue’s hands and softly asked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Do I look like your mother?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue nodded again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser smiled gently and reached out to rub the girl’s cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You don’t talk much, do you? You remind me of one of my daughters.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though, there was a clear difference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa, when she was younger, had deliberately tried to act like an adult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, she believed that staying silent meant being mature—and maturity was a mark of adulthood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xiaoxue’s quiet nature seemed to stem from her personality, rather than any deliberate act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that Rosvisser had a daughter, Xiaoxue blinked in curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Auntie… are you… married?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser smiled at Xiaoxue’s timid attempt at conversation and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, I’ve been married for almost ten years now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten years… that… sounds… like a long time…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not really,” Rosvisser chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When you’re with someone you love, time flies by quickly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Auntie… do you… love your husband?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was older than Noa and Helena,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right in the midst of her teenage years, when thoughts about love and relationships began to bloom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser didn’t mind indulging her curiosity about her and Leon’s marriage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course I love him,” she answered without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, that mangy mutt of a husband wasn’t here right now—so there was no harm in being a little soft-spoken about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue tilted her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Auntie… how many… daughters… do you have?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser lowered her thumb and held up her four other fingers,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smirking with playful pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Four.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…That’s a lot… I wish… I had… an older sister… or a younger sibling…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze slowly drifted back to the family photo,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To the three-person portrait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…But I don’t… remember anything.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser thought for a moment before gently taking Xiaoxue’s small, icy hands in her own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She spoke in a warm, reassuring tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t let the past become your chains, Xiaoxue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It shouldn’t be something that traps you—but something that gives you the strength to live on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue’s golden pupils trembled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Live on…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even though your parents can’t be with you anymore,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They will always be watching over you from the skies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser’s voice was soft, almost a whisper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, promise me, Xiaoxue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Live on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t let your parents down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t sure if the dwarves had ever tried comforting Xiaoxue in the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But from the way the girl had reacted earlier,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they had,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It likely hadn’t worked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was understandable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was still too young to fully express her emotions,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it was unreasonable to expect a war orphan to simply forget her past and move forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser wanted to do whatever she could—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To heal, even just a little,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This poor child who had lost everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue stared into Rosvisser’s silver eyes,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling the warmth in her voice,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The kindness in her touch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This woman—whom she had just met less than an hour ago—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Made her feel something she hadn’t felt in a very, very long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was… different from the dwarves’ kindness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This warmth…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felt like a mother’s embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue couldn’t quite describe the feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was similar to what she once felt with her mother,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet, it was not quite the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Xiaoxue had more life experience, she might have understood—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason she felt so at ease around Rosvisser was because Rosvisser was, at her core, a truly exceptional mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She radiated the purest warmth of maternal care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That made it easy for Xiaoxue to lower her guard around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Okay, I understand now, Auntie Rosvisser.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser smiled in satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was something she had noticed earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue’s speech pattern was slightly unusual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, when she said, “Auntie Rosvisser”,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a very distinct pause between “Rosvisser” and “Auntie”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even during their previous conversations, Xiaoxue had spoken in a similar manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser considered asking about it but decided to hold back her curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could be a natural speech quirk,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or it could be a result of war trauma affecting her neurological functions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either way, it wasn’t something Xiaoxue seemed comfortable talking about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Rosvisser wouldn’t pry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t hindering their conversation, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Auntie.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How… did you meet Uncle?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We met… hmm, let me think—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser paused to gather her thoughts before answering,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We met at a victory banquet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Banquet? Celebrating… what?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser’s inner thoughts:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Celebrating the fact that I captured your uncle and threw him into a dungeon, haha!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She cleared her throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just a regular victory banquet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your uncle stood out a lot that day.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ohhh~~ really?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mmmhmm, that’s how it was.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Far away, deep in the snow-capped mountains—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon, who was both repairing his sword and suffering in the freezing cold, suddenly sneezed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? Who’s talking behind my back?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Prince, maybe it’s just the cold.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon rubbed his nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Yeah, maybe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, they continued working on Thundercloud Blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the evening approached, Rosvisser was preparing to leave with Aju.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just before she stepped outside, she noticed Xiaoxue hesitating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief moment of thought, Rosvisser leaned toward Aju’s ear and whispered,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…How about we stay here tonight?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aju let out a snort and flicked its tail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—That meant yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser chuckled, patting Aju’s head before turning to Xiaoxue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiaoxue, do you have any extra blankets?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…I do.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue’s eyes lit up, her voice betraying a hint of excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Auntie… you’re staying here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What, you don’t want me to stay?” Rosvisser teased, tilting her head with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, I do!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll go get you a blanket right now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Xiaoxue ran off and eagerly fetched a spare quilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After neatly laying out Rosvisser’s bedding, she turned her attention to Aju.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Aju… also needs one.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser watched as Xiaoxue rummaged through her storage chest, pulling out a plain, darker-colored blanket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then tiptoed up to Aju, placing the quilt over its back—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Rosvisser’s help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aju let out two deep snorts, wiggling its ears in contentment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoxue clapped her hands happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aju… likes it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser ruffled her hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He does.

I feel… cold.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser smiled knowingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She lifted one side of her blanket and offered,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Do you want to sleep with Auntie?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Xiaoxue rolled over and burrowed herself into Rosvisser’s blanket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nestled against Auntie Rosvisser, she felt warmth, softness, and a gentle scent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her thoughts wandered for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That uncle from the banquet sure is lucky…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I really like this feeling…” Xiaoxue murmured sleepily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Auntie Rosvisser… is so warm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s probably because your mother used to hold you like this when you were little.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Really?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mmm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…But I… don’t remember.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You will,” Rosvisser reassured her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One day, those memories will come back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But until then… like I told you before—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You have to keep living.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quiet pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, in the darkness,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A firm voice answered,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Okay.
