Kyle walks into the small living room and sees a small furball lying on Ellen's shoulder.

The two little guys, one yellow and one gray, stared at the thick literature in Allen's hand, staring at the round eyes and looking serious, as if they were really working hard with him!

found that His Royal Highness & Brother & Backer walked in, and the three of them & Tiger & Rabbit turned their heads to look at him in unison, and they had a tacit understanding.

Alan had a tiger and a lop-eared rabbit on his shoulder, and although he wanted to salute Kyle, he could only do more than he could, and he said to Kyle, "Your Highness, you're back!" ”

Then he showed a smile, which looked particularly warm in the afternoon sun.

Many years later, when Kyle sees that Eren is occupied by three treasures in his arms and on his shoulders, he remembers this similar scene, and his heart is full of happiness and nostalgia.

Kyle just sat down silently at the other end of the couch.

The lop-eared rabbit had recently been working on an "alliance" with him, and when he saw him not far away, he jumped off Allen's shoulder, jumped on his lap, clinged to Kyle's leg, and nestled on the couch.

Seeing this, the little tiger also moved a little cautiously, it first sat on Allen's lap, looked at his brother and "Qiuqiu" for a while, and then looked at Allen, looking like he wanted them but was reluctant to Allen.

- If only my brother and my Alan could become one, or hug each other, woohoo!

When Alan saw its tangled little appearance, he was very happy in his heart, and he teased it: "Oh, does the cub like my brother more, or do you like me more?" ”

Kyle was also looking at the little guy when he heard Alan's words and stroked the lop-eared rabbit's hand.

"Woohoo!" When the little tiger heard this, he immediately threw himself into Allen's arms, rubbed Allen's chest, and raised his little head to ask for a kiss.

- Brother can often see me in the future, it's not worth anything at all, or choose my Ellen, woo!

Allen, who was "selected in the bird's screen", suddenly blossomed, and he immediately kissed the little head of "His Majesty", with a little pride in his expression. Kyle was determined that the "brother" in Alan's mouth was referring to the gray hairball on his leg.

"Alan, there will be a new female officer to take care of the cubs in the future." After talking to his father, Kyle gets the latest news and relays it to Alan.

Not knowing that Amanda was no longer there, Alan asked suspiciously, "What about Amanda?" ”

"Amanda is back in Abner," and not going to tell Allen about it, Kyle said, turning the subject to the new female officer: "This female officer's name is Anna." ”

He remembered something, paused, and then continued: "She is currently a deacon of the Holy See, and Anna lived in the Serentu for a time when I was a child. ”

In fact, Anna was the lady who took care of Kyle, and because she was a distant relative of Elijah and had followed the high priest for many years, she also had the trust of Salvin.

Later, after the war in the Far Star Domain ended, Kyle was old enough to live independently, so she applied to be transferred out of Emperor Star and went to serve in the church in the Third Star Sector, and did not return for many years.

This time, Amanda had an accident, Salwyn was uneasy, and Vincent had to have someone to take care of him, so he asked the High Priest Elijah and Anna herself to return to the Emperor Star and take care of Vincent temporarily, so the current situation was born.

Kyle added, "If you see her afterwards, call her Deacon Anna. ”

The clergy of the Holy See were unmarried, and even though Deacon Anna was nearly forty years old, she could not be called a lady.

Alan nodded, indicating that he was clear, and Kyle stopped bothering him to read.

The two sat at opposite ends of the couch, the little tiger nested in Ellen's arms, and the lop-eared rabbit pressed to Kyle's lap, and for a moment, a sense of peace permeated the small living room, making people feel even more intoxicated.

……

On the other side, in the Temple of Light in Abnah, High Priest Elijah was sitting at the window reading a letter from the morning when a senior deacon entered the room and reported to him.

Finally, Elijah asked, "Is it already arranged on Henry's side?" ”

"Yes, my lord," replied, "Henry's inauguration will take place tomorrow morning, and the temple is all ready." ”

"Well, that's good."

Elijah stood in front of the window and looked out to see a couple of nuns playing in the garden with some children—their carefree and anxious figures seemed so innocent, happy, and free.

However, Elijah somehow suddenly remembered that when the Far Star War had just ended, the children sent by the churches in various star regions needed psychological treatment, and their faces were full of horror and despair, which made people's hearts ache.

Most of them have now grown up, except for those who remained in the Holy See because of the "purification" ability, the others have gone their separate ways, and even returned to the place where they once lived and started over.

It's just that their current situation is very different.

After a moment of silence, Elijah asked again, "Has Anna returned?" ”

"Not yet, but calculate the time, it should be almost there, and the spaceship from the third star region will be able to reach the emperor star in the afternoon the day after tomorrow."

"When she returns, let her come to me immediately."

"Yes, sir."

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The moment she stepped on the land of God Star, Anna suddenly had some emotion - after so many years, she finally came back.

Soon met the deacon who came to greet her, the other party was a very talkative person, and chatted with her very enthusiastically along the way: "I heard that you have been in the third star area all these years, I don't know how the people and things are there?" Gironde must be bustling now, right? ”

Girond is the farthest planet from Emperor in the Third Star Sector, and one of the most important transportation hubs in the Five Star Sectors, with the second largest airport in the Third Star Sector, more than half of the ships going to the Far Star Domain pass through here, and the branch of the Imperial Royal Academy is also located in Girond.

Once an ordinary asteroid, it was known as a branch of the Royal Academy, and later served as an important intermediate supply depot during the Far Star War, and gradually established a large civilian airport after the war.

Today, it is a new nouveau riche, with a large number of merchants and tourists coming and going, and the Gironde has grown rapidly.

Anna held an old hard-shell notebook in her hand and replied calmly, "Yes, Gironde is very lively right now. ”

……

The week passed quickly, and on a weekend afternoon, Kyle was taking the tiger cub back to Serentu.

As with every separation, the little one was a little sullen, but still obedient to the heart's content. It nestled quietly in Alan's arms, listening to his heartbeat with its eyes closed.

Kyle, who was walking next to him, noticed that the relationship between the two (tigers) was not good, and comforted him softly: "If there is nothing special next week, you can bring the cubs to Franche again." ”

When the little guy heard his brother's words, his little ears moved, but he didn't open his eyes, and Alan touched its back and asked Kyle, "Your Highness, will that Deacon Anna come here today?" ”

Although Kyle had described it once and felt like a gentle woman, Alan was still curious and wanted to see it for himself.

"Well, we'll see her later."

……

From a distance, there was a group of people waiting for them on the special tarmac, and when they entered, they saw a lady in a navy blue dress and a gray shawl standing at the front of the line.

She wore a twelve-pointed star pendant on her chest, representing the Holy See, and a hardcover book with a brown cover in her arms, her face was calm and indifferent, with a slight smile, and she looked very gentle.

Seeing them coming, the other party nodded in greeting, and his beautiful eyes looked at Kyle, and some sparkles flashed: "Your Highness, you ......"

Grown up......

Kyle is no longer calm. In his early memory, Beckwell the Great and Prince Salvin were often busy, and it was this gentle and stern lady who was always by the little prince's side—Anna was both his godmother and his teacher.

At that time, the young lady was already weathered, and the little child had grown into a tall young man unconsciously. There is always a faint sadness that haunts my heart.

Anna didn't immediately reach out to hug the little tiger in Alan's arms, she just glanced at the little thing lovingly—her Highness Kyle used to be so small and so cute.

It's just that His Royal Highness Kyle at that time was not as clingy as His Royal Highness Vincennes is now, he is not used to being hugged by others, he always finds a quiet corner, looks at the people who come and goes, and is a child who likes to be expressionless and fall into thinking.

His Royal Highness Vincennes is now innocent and romantic, and his brother's personality is completely different, but Anna likes it very much at first sight.

She felt how fortunate she was to be able to witness the growth of the two Highnesses.

Anna's gaze finally stayed on Alan's face, and the complex emotions surging in her eyes were incomprehensible to Allen, and they were bottomless.

But her tone was still calm and gentle: "You're Alan, right?" It's a pleasure...... I can see you. ”

"Hello!" Eren hurriedly saluted her.

At this moment, Allen's consciousness sounded the prompt of the task update, and the task list opened.

Mandatory Tasks:

Content: Get a notebook for memories

Reward: 10 seeds, 5,000 points

Duration: 24 hours

Failure penalty: Warehouse items and system points are cleared, and mental power is closed for 240 hours

Mandatory Mission! This is the first mandatory task of the system!

The reward is almost double that of the previous random mission, but this failure penalty ...... Mental power closure? Could it be that in these ten days, he will not be able to use his mental power at all?

But - a notebook of memory, what is that?

Alan's eyes drifted unconsciously to the hardcover book that Deacon Anna was holding in her arms.

Noticing his gaze, Anna was slightly stunned, then opened a faint smile and said to him: "I haven't seen you for many years, and I don't have any gifts for you, I have something here, maybe you will need it." ”
