Chapter 609 : Who's the Kitten Now? Speak!!

~8 min read 1,470 words

The Capital District Checkpoint was built with hard magic crystal stone, and walking on it produced a crisp sound.

The smooth floor reflected a person's figure. At the end of the corridor was an office with a nameplate that read "Examiner - Laikar".

Sunlight did not cover this corridor; it was a shadowy place in the human world.

Inside the office.

"Lord Laikar, is this okay?"

"What's not okay?"

Laikar lay on his chair, leisurely smoking and looking at the Noke family crest on the table.

"Everything is done according to the rules and regulations. Even if Lord Claude himself comes, he can't just snatch someone away, can he?"

Before the school festival, it was Noke who secretly caused trouble, preventing Adelina from negotiating with the capital district's chamber of commerce and sending people to attack her.

After that, they had also been constantly looking for trouble with Felyn.

In these past few months, the Noke family was no longer as glorious as before, and had instead thrown their lot in with the third princess, Her Highness Lecia.

Although Noke had not personally given the order, Laikar, as a member of the Noke family, also wanted to deliberately make things difficult for Adelina.

Embarrassing Adelina was embarrassing Claude.

Embarrassing the Claude family would earn him a reward from the head of the Noke family.

Laikar knew that Adelina and Felyn were very close, and he also knew that Adelina had specifically asked the guards to take care of Felyn's sister. Therefore, he planned to deliberately use procedures to delay Olivia's entry into the capital district.

"If the Claude side sends someone over to talk to me nicely, I'd be willing to let it go. I just don't know if they have that sincerity," Laikar narrowed his eyes, seemingly already imagining the Claude family members enduring in front of him.

By doing this, the head of the Noke family would also praise him. Killing two birds with one stone.

*Am I really a genius?*

Laikar greatly enjoyed this feeling. Although he had just been appointed and it was his first day in an official position, he had already grasped the taste of power.

"Then Lord Laikar, shall I put Olivia's application at the very end for review?" the secretary said, holding Olivia's application form.

"No, no, no, that would be too targeted," Laikar shook his head. "Just put it as the second to last. I am still merciful."

The office was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

"Report."

The guard at the door came in to report the situation. "Lord Laikar, Lady Adelina and Lord Felyn are already waiting downstairs. What do you think..."

"I didn't expect Adelina to actually come, huh?"

Laikar had thought that with Adelina's status, she wouldn't come personally.

But this was just right. The more important the guest who came, the more benefits he would get.

"Just say I'm busy with official duties. Let them wait for a few hours."

"But my lord..."

"No buts, go quickly!"

The office became quiet again. Laikar lay comfortably on the recliner. "Such good luck, Miss Adelina came personally. If I had known, I should have notified Lord Noke to come over, to let him see Adelina in a difficult situation."

He closed his eyes and stretched his body. "I'll take a nap first, and then go meet them when I wake up..."

"Boom!"

Laikar was startled awake by the loud noise. He looked at where the door used to be, and now there was only a door frame with debris constantly falling from it.

And the door was now embedded in the wall, like a painting deliberately designed to be hung on the wall.

*Where's my door?!*

"Who's there!"

Long, crimson hair was particularly conspicuous in the dust. A delicate-looking girl appeared in front of Laikar.

"Gu-Guards! Guards!"

Laikar was a little flustered. He pulled his secretary in front of him and shouted for the guards.

But there was no response from the surroundings.

It was as if the entire world had been destroyed by this young girl.

"I'm warning you, I'm a fourth-rank noble. Even if you're a student from the capital district, you can't act recklessly, or the church you belong to will be banned from entering the capital district for a full five years!"

Laikar kept reciting the empire's regulations, slowly calming his panicked heart.

This was the capital district, the seat of the imperial royal family. It was impossible to act recklessly.

Even if she was a member of the three major churches, she had to abide by the empire's laws.

"I'm asking you, when will Olivia's review be finished?" The girl's voice surprised Laikar.

*This girl is actually here for Olivia. Could she be from the Claude family?*

Since she was from the Claude family, she was even less likely to do anything to him.

She should be begging him to review Olivia's application as soon as possible.

Laikar coughed twice and pushed the secretary beside him away.

He stood in front of Eitani with his hands in his pockets.

"You're from the Claude family, right? Are you here for Olivia?"

He saw Eitani frown and continued, "There's a small problem with Miss Olivia's procedures, they need to be reviewed again."

"How long?"

"Not sure. After all, our work is also very busy. It might be reviewed tomorrow, or it might be a week later." Laikar wasn't stupid. He wouldn't be arrogant enough to say things outside the rules.

Using rules and regulations to obstruct you was the most unsolvable method.

"Felyn said it would take half a month."

"Felyn? Oh, you mean Lord Felyn. He doesn't understand our line of work. Under normal circumstances, a week is enough."

Laikar soothed Eitani's emotions.

*A week?*

*You kicked down my door, it won't be less than a month!*

"I want it now." The girl's firmness surprised Laikar.

*Is this girl really from the Claude family?*

*So reckless. Do you think you're the Demon King, and everyone has to listen to you?*

"Not now, miss. I have a meeting this afternoon and a business trip tomorrow. You can go back and wait for news. There will probably be a result in about a week." Laikar did not fly into a rage. Anyway, everything was under control. It's not like she was going to blow this place up.

"I said, I want it now. Are you going to do it or not?"

Eitani was angry.

*A mere human dares to prevent me from being with Hermie.*

"No."

Laikar also puffed out his chest. "Miss, I am acting according to the rules and regulations. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can report it to the Capital District Inspection Department. If there's nothing else, please leave, and compensate for the door while you're at it."

He looked at Eitani and smiled contemptuously.

The next second.

A huge mushroom cloud appeared above the Capital District Checkpoint.

The violent explosion made the surrounding guards and pedestrians stop and watch, not knowing what had happened.

A storm of dust swept through the entire building. Coughing and screaming sounded continuously all around.

The entire building was pierced by Eitani's magic. Sunlight penetrated through the hole in the ceiling, bringing the power of the Demon King to the human world.

In the dust, Laikar saw a pair of brown eyes like those of a Demon King.

"I want Hermie, do you hear me?" Eitani's long hair danced wildly in the air behind her. She stood on the ruins, indifferent to the surrounding debris.

"Wh-Who are you?" Laikar's hair was now completely burned off by Eitani's world-ending magic. He collapsed on the ground, his hand slowly rising. "The empire will not let you go. Daring to use divine arts in the capital district, the empire will not let you go!"

He was wrong.

What she used was not divine art, but magic.

And the empire would let her go. It would even issue an order to block all news and protect her.

Because she was Eitani Siviesus.

She was the Demon King's daughter.

Felyn and Adelina arrived late. They walked to the office, which had already become ruins, and looked at everything.

Felyn was a little surprised.

Eitani had actually followed the rules. She had come to find the examiner first, instead of directly taking Olivia and Hermie away by force.

"Felyn, Felyn."

After seeing Felyn, Eitani raised her eyebrows, stood in the ruins with her hands on her hips, and couldn't help but have a triumphant smile on her face.

The cold look she had in front of Laikar just now instantly disappeared.

"He agreed to let Olivia pass immediately. How about that, am I amazing?"

After she finished speaking, she deliberately glanced at Adelina.

*Miss Adelina, who's the picked-up kitten now?*
