Zhu Qiu was stunned.
How did the custom baby bottle Zhu Xiaxia gave her end up in his hands?
And her milk powder was there, too! Had a thief really broken into the house?
It certainly seemed so.
She wanted to rush forward and snatch them back, but the other side had the advantage in numbers.
It was better to stay calm and wait to see how things developed.
“Sodlan, do you still not understand? The things in my hands are the best evidence.”
“Milk powder and a baby bottle? How is that evidence?”
Sodlan countered.
“Yesterday, while you were out, I came here on the King’s orders to check for suspicious items. I didn’t expect to actually find something.”
Zhu Qiu listened from the side.
She hadn’t expected that a thief had truly entered their home, and that this thief was actually the Archmage of the Human Race, Dinksway?
“So, what does this have to do with my son?”
Sodlan asked, puzzled.
“I went home and studied them carefully. The writing on this milk powder can is entirely in Dragon Script. At a glance, it’s clearly a product of the Dragon Race. Furthermore, there is a photo of a female dragon stuck to the baby bottle. We have reason to suspect your family is secretly raising a Young Dragon.”
Yesterday, after Dinksway compared the stolen items with the ancient books in his collection, he immediately reported the news to the King.
However, the King did not believe that any Dragon Race existed.
Under pressure from Dinksway’s strong insistence, and to ensure their continued cooperation went smoothly, the King could only send the Royal Legion to help.
Thus, they had arrived early in the morning to block the house’s entrance.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. This is my house, Sodlan’s house. I hope you’ll leave immediately! Trespassing on a private residence is a violation of the law. Although the house is scheduled to be demolished, it hasn’t happened yet, so it is still under the protection of the law!”
Sodlan shouted sternly.
“You old man, of course you don’t know anything. But your son definitely does. These things were definitely brought out by her.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sodlan, Dinksway, and the Royal Legion all turned their gazes toward Zhu Qiu.
‘Wait, don’t look at me! I’m going to get nervous with this many people staring.’
“Son, I believe this has nothing to do with you. Although I’m not clear on what this Magician’s goal is, he must be slandering us!”
Should she tell the truth?
Dinksway said she was raising a Young Dragon, but where was it?
How did he know she was raising a dragon?
‘It couldn’t be me, right?’
Zhu Qiu shook her head.
‘Impossible, impossible. I haven’t left a single opening. There’s no way he found out. Dinksway must just be guessing. Then I won’t tell the truth. But what a waste of my milk powder!’
Zhu Qiu gritted her teeth and said, “These things aren’t mine.”
“Not yours? How is that possible!”
Dinksway’s eyes widened to an immense size, his face a mask of disbelief.
“They just aren’t. I’m a member of the Human Race. How could I have items from the Dragon Race?”
“Sword Saint, don’t be ungrateful. Harboring an alien race is a capital offense. I brought so many people this time just to take you into custody! We’re also going to find the Dragon Race member you’ve hidden and deal with them together!”
Dinksway finally revealed his true goal.
His actual intent wasn’t to take anyone into custody, but to find the member of the Dragon Race to exploit for himself.
“You want to arrest me? Then show me the evidence that I’m harboring an alien race!”
“If this isn’t evidence, then what is?”
Dinksway tossed the milk powder can in his hand.
“I already told you, it’s not mine.”
“Alright, since there’s no evidence, you have no reason to arrest me. Leave quickly, or I’ll sue you for trespassing.”
Zhu Qiu looked confident; her logic was flawless.
“Don’t think that simply refusing to admit it means everything is fine!”
Right at that moment, the sound of many noisy footsteps came from not far away.
The sound grew louder and louder, clearly approaching their location.
Dinksway turned back to look at the street.
He saw a group of people dressed in white uniforms walking toward them.
Two people were holding a large sign with the words “Demolition Team” written in red ink.
The King had also come to supervise personally, sitting leisurely in a carriage following behind the team.
Dinksway smiled.
The King had really given him face by coming in person.
He had arrived at just the right time.
Zhu Qiu was curious and wanted to go see, but the crowd blocked her way, making it impossible to get out.
“Hey! Get lost! This is my house, and my house doesn’t welcome shady Goblins!”
“Sword Saint, I’d like to see how long you can keep up this stubbornness.”
Soon, the King arrived at the door with the Demolition Team.
At the same time, the street was packed.
Most people seemed to know what was happening and stayed far away.
“The King has arrived!” someone shouted.
Everyone moved aside to make a path, and even Dinksway was no exception.
‘The King?’
“Why was he here too?”
She felt like something bad was about to happen again.
The King slowly stepped down from the carriage and walked straight into the house.
“Ahem! Sodlan, the land your house occupies is being requisitioned by the state. It is to be demolished today. Are you aware of this?”
“I am aware,” Sodlan answered without hesitation.
He knew that the demolition of the house was already a settled matter.
“Good! Then please step outside. Otherwise, the crown will not be responsible for any danger you might encounter.”
“Wait!”
Zhu Qiu shouted.
“Hmm? Does the Sword Saint have any further questions?”
‘I don’t have questions, it’s just… why hasn’t the Magic Circle started yet!’
Zhu Qiu was anxious.
If it didn’t activate soon, the house would really be torn down.
“It’s just… nature calls. I’ll go to the bathroom first. It won’t take long anyway.”
“Then be quick,” the King permitted.
Once in the bathroom, Zhu Qiu hastily took out her communication tool and injected it with Magic Power.
“Hello? Hello? Zhu Xiaxia, can you hear me?”
“Mm, what is it, my dear daughter?”
Zhu Xiaxia answered lazily.
It sounded like she was lying in bed.
“Hurry up and start the Magic Circle! The house is about to be gone!”
“Maybe in a bit. I want to sleep a little longer.”
“What?!”
Zhu Qiu could hardly believe her ears.
“Don’t sleep! Do you know what time it is?!”
“To think that one day, those words would actually come out of my daughter’s mouth. Mother is very gratified.”
In reality, Zhu Xiaxia had already set up another Large-scale Teleportation Magic Circle at the designated location.
She had already returned to the Dragon Race Imperial Palace to lie down.
Now, she only needed to use her mind to control it, and the Magic Circle would activate.
On the human side, Zhu Qiu was going crazy with worry, screaming in her heart for Zhu Xiaxia not to play her at such a critical moment.
But in the next second, under Zhu Xiaxia’s control, the Magic Circle officially activated.
Zhu Qiu was stunned.
How did the custom baby bottle Zhu Xiaxia gave her end up in his hands?
And her milk powder was there, too! Had a thief really broken into the house?
It certainly seemed so.
