"ow ow ow, Lanci, I want to play next ti too."
Cat Boss gazed out the glass window and said to Lanci.
The endless Gold Bee Amusent Park filled it with a sense of wonder.
But it also understood that work awaited; Lanci couldn't possibly have the leisure to take it for a play today.
"Why don't you find your sister Bianca? She would definitely be delighted to take you to the Gold Bee Amusent Park."
Lanci, focused on finding new safe routes, explained to Cat Boss.
The War Gods who followed Loren were also in Ichrite today.
Yet, by the Emperor's orders, the War Gods had free activities today.
In any case, Loren wouldn't get lost in Ichrite, and from what Lanci learned from Abigail, the War Gods' schedule involved going to the Ikelite Opera House for a play in the afternoon.
"ow, has Bianca and the others arrived?"
Whenever Cat Boss recalled that friendly Catman War God, it felt both reassured and apprehensive.
So amusent rides couldn't accommodate cats; it would have to transform into human form to play.
But once in human form, Cat Boss feared Bianca might say so peculiar things.
"They've arrived, with Loren. They're on holiday today, and everyone agreed to et later at the Ikelite Opera House for a mini-reunion."
Lanci checked the ti, just past 8:30, and replied.
This ti, accompanying them were the Second War God Obsidian Throne Salon, the Ninth War God Seat of Athyst Ryan, and the Twelfth War God Seat of Cat's Eye Bianca.
As for the Tenth War God Red Tourmaline Julius, once close to the Silvermoon Reform Association, and the Sixth War God Shuicang Jade Wellet, Julius is now the new commander-in-chief in South Crayney, bearing significant responsibilities, while Wellet is recovering at the Monastery and did not co to the Hutton Kingdom.
Five War Gods coming at once is too many; perhaps this official trip can accommodate only three.
"When are they leaving, ow?"
Cat Boss wished to host these comrades from the Cerryti Empire, inviting them to its small kitchen for so hospitality.
"Tonight or early tomorrow, but the schedule is tight, so Loren had to arrange all etings today. If you want to invite them, you can ask them to the Boss Cat Restaurant for a al after seeing them at the theater."
Lanci explained to Cat Boss, sitting in the Gold Bee Amusent Park's beverage shop, awaiting Talia's return.
Fortunately today, Talia would occasionally leave on her own to queue for food, giving him plenty of free ti.
While chatting, Lanci's gaze noticed a figure approaching outside the window, interrupting his conversation with Cat Boss.
It was Talia returning with two crepes.
After entering the shop, she ca over to sit down next to Lanci in the booth.
"Sorry, I dropped one crepe on the ground and went back to get two more. I made you wait, Lanci, which one do you want?"
Talia asked Lanci, holding a mango cream and a matcha cream crepe.
She seed to have difficulty deciding herself.
Thus, she let Lanci choose first.
"I might not finish so much, why don't you have both?"
Lanci scrutinized Talia's eyes; she seed to want both, and taking one would leave Talia hungry.
"Then you take a bite and taste them, and I'll eat the rest."
Talia's face imdiately blossod into a smile, offering both to Lanci.
"You enjoy them; I fear if I ate, there wouldn't be enough for you."
Lanci watched Talia's cheerful deanor, seldom seeing her so joyful.
"Take a bite, at least try it."
Talia felt eating wasn't as delightful without Lanci by her side.
She nudged the crepe towards Lanci's mouth.
Fearing Talia might mimic Sigrid's smooth tricks, Lanci didn't refuse and sampled both, revealing a satisfied expression.
"Delicious."
Lanci comnted.
"Haha, you'll need to try all the sweets I buy later."
Talia laughed as she started enjoying the long-awaited limited edition dessert.
If even Lanci said it's tasty, then it must be really good.
Lanci quietly sat by, waiting for her.
This weary morning, watching Talia eat was his greatest solace.
"Why are you looking at ?"
Talia touched her cheek, wondering if cream had sared the corner of her mouth.
"Admiring your exquisite beauty."
Lanci replied as a matter of fact.
"You rascal, you've liked watching eat since we first t, definitely not for my face!"
Imdiately, Talia captured Lanci, wanting to pinch his face.
But with both hands holding crepes, she couldn't pinch Lanci while gripping them.
She decided to let it go.
"Look if you want, I only let you see, and if you want to watch, you'll have to feed more."
Talia focused on the dessert in hand.
During their casual chat, on the other side, Loren and Juliana had already walked from the North District, about to reach the West District.
Lanci thought he'd linger here a bit longer before taking Tata westward.
He glanced outside the window; the vibrant morning of February's winter, with the central courtyard of the Gold Bee Amusent Park like a magically awakened realm, special stage activities captivated the visitors' attention.
The most eye-catching stage, besides the comrcial Artificial Shadow World activation terminal at the stage's rear, had its chanical side embedded with a huge magic screen, surrounded by dancing lights.
Event managers dressed in golden bee costus stood at the gate, holding a glowing sign—
