Healing a Fallen S-Rank Beastman: Everyone Fights Over the Little Female Chapter 249: Happy

Looking back at the dilapidated manor, Lu Xiao felt sothing different this ti.

The manor was perhaps a reflection of Her Majesty the Queen’s heart—with her loved one gone, her spirit had died too.

*

After they left, Admiral Hans was eager to draw up a plan for the Release Therapy developed within the S-Class Shelter.

He believed that once it was widely implented, it could beco a preventative asure for all males in the Empire, thereby eliminating so of the risk of Spirit Sea disorders at the source.

And once the Healing Potion beca available, Spirit Sea disorders would cease to be a problem for Male Beastn altogether.

anwhile, Lu Xiao sent a ssage to Ares from the car: "The eting with Her Majesty the Queen is over. Don’t worry, everything went smoothly ^_^"

Ares, who was in his office handling work, smiled when he saw the ssage. "Okay ^_^," he replied.

Kevin, who had co to deliver so docunts, pushed the door open and imdiately noticed his Major General’s incredibly gentle smile. He didn’t even have to guess who it was from; it had to be sothing Lu Xiao said.

He placed the files on the desk and asked cheekily, "Major General Ares, what did Lu Xiao say this ti to make you so happy?"

Ares raised an eyebrow at him. "You want to know?"

Kevin’s eyes lit up as he nodded imdiately.

"Then you’re probably not destined to find out in this lifeti. Get out and close the door."

Fine. Major General Ares was still the sa cold and ruthless Major General.

But that very afternoon, Admiral Kula Peng burst into Major General Ares’s office.

Seeing Admiral Kula Peng appear so suddenly, everyone thought sothing was wrong. They instinctively rose to their feet and looked over, while Ares paused what he was doing. "What is it, Admiral Kula Peng?"

Admiral Kula Peng, who had been wearing a solemn expression, suddenly broke into a grin after Ares’s question. He then pulled a docunt from his coat. "Ta-da! Look what this is! Major General Ares’s promotion order is here! As of today, Ares is promoted to Vice Admiral Ares! Don’t get the title wrong in the future, you hear?"

With that, Admiral Kula Peng handed the appointnt order to Ares. "Congratulations, Vice Admiral Ares."

Ares, however, was stunned for a mont. He then rose and accepted it with both hands. "Thank you."

’How could it be this fast?’

Admiral Kelan had told him his promotion order wouldn’t be approved so quickly and that he should be prepared to wait.

Yet here the order was. He refused to believe this had nothing to do with Lu Xiao’s audience with Her Majesty the Queen.

Admiral Kula Peng patted Ares’s shoulder lightly. "The ssenger said this promotion was personally decreed by Her Majesty the Queen."

Her Majesty the Queen rarely handled such matters anymore.

This took Admiral Kula Peng by surprise. "Was it sothing Lu Xiao did?"

"She and Admiral Hans had an audience with Her Majesty the Queen today." Ares didn’t hide this fact.

Upon hearing this, Admiral Kula Peng understood instantly and said with a laugh, "Then Lu Xiao must have requested it from Her Majesty as a boon."

’Seriously, Ares is just too damn enviable!’

The others in the office naturally overheard their conversation, and everyone’s faces filled with envy.

Once word of this got out, Ares would once again be the object of everyone’s envy for a long ti.

In fact, they were all getting quite used to it.

Lu Xiao herself hadn’t expected Ares’s promotion order to co through so quickly. After parting ways with Admiral Hans, she had gone straight to the Duke Gallodro Mansion.

She knew Cecilia would be anxious about her eting with Her Majesty the Queen, so she went to see her in person.

The mont she saw her, Cecilia took her by the hand. "My dear, tell your grandmother, Her Majesty the Queen didn’t give you a hard ti, did she?"

Lu Xiao shook her head and, with a smile, recounted everything that had happened. At the end, she couldn’t help but add, "I feel like Her Majesty the Queen isn’t what the rumors make her out to be."

Cecilia nodded. "She’s actually quite capable when it cos to handling the Empire’s affairs. She’s just a fool in matters of the heart. How is her health?"

"She’s very thin." Lu Xiao had a faint feeling that Cecilia and Her Majesty the Queen might have once been very close.

’Otherwise, why would they both be so concerned about each other’s health?’

"It’s been a long ti since you’ve seen Her Majesty the Queen, hasn’t it, Grandmother?"

"Why would I see her? There’s no need. Since she didn’t give you a hard ti, I suppose she hasn’t completely lost her senses. You’re staying for dinner at your grandmother’s before you go back; just let Ares know." At this point, Cecilia asked for confirmation, "Did Her Majesty the Queen really agree to grant your father a divorce exemption?"

"Yes. Since she gave her word, I don’t think she’ll go back on it."

"No, she wouldn’t do that. I’m just surprised she agreed so easily." Cecilia said with a laugh. "But never mind her. Your Father being able to get his divorce smoothly is what’s most important. He’ll be overjoyed when he hears the news."

In fact, at that very mont, Admiral Kelan had already received a handwritten letter from Her Majesty the Queen.

He was still in a daze after taking it from the ssenger. Although he’d had contact with Her Majesty the Queen before, this was the first ti he had ever received a personal letter from her.

The ssenger said with a smile, "Her Majesty the Queen says that you have a wonderful daughter, Admiral Kelan, and she hopes you will cherish her."

’A wonderful daughter... that has to be Lu Xiao, doesn’t it?’

"Lu Xiao... what did she do?" Admiral Kelan couldn’t help but ask.

But the ssenger simply smiled. "You’ll know once you’ve read the letter."

After seeing the ssenger off, Admiral Kelan eagerly opened the letter. The ssage was short, but it was precisely what he needed most.

In the letter, Her Majesty the Queen granted him a divorce exemption. He would not only be spared the usual penalties for divorce, but he could also keep all his assets. In other words, he could divorce Lu Ge Wei without paying any price at all.

’Lu Xiao had requested this from Her Majesty the Queen!’

At this realization, Admiral Kelan’s eyes grew red.

His adjutant, standing nearby, was startled by the sight. "Admiral?"

Admiral Kelan turned to him and suddenly broke into a laugh. He slung an arm around his adjutant’s shoulders, patting him cheerfully. He was simply overjoyed.

The adjutant was completely bewildered. After all, Admiral Kelan rarely laughed like that; it was a good day when he wasn’t scowling.

"What on earth happened, sir? Why don’t you let us in on it so we can be happy, too?" the adjutant asked tentatively.

To his surprise, Admiral Kelan actually handed him the letter.

The adjutant jumped but quickly reached out to take it, afraid the Admiral might change his mind if he hesitated.

Though he was puzzled by the Admiral’s sudden generosity, he decided to read first and ask questions later.

After reading the letter, the adjutant’s jaw dropped. "Her Majesty the Queen really granted you a divorce exemption? And Lu Xiao was the one who requested it for you?"

The adjutant had overheard what the ssenger said earlier. Connecting that with the letter, he was now too stunned to react.
