Chapter 392
392 Plow feels a change. Could it be growth?
“Most certainly. Please follow me to my desk. I will give privacy, and after the letter is written, I will request the two requested birds to my desk. After the letter senders comply with the rules and sign document, the Prego bird can leave with the letter.” The old man explained while leading Vincent, Lilith, and Clair to his desk.
Vincent, Lilith, and Clair sat in front of the old man’s desk. He provided three papers, three quills, and three ink bottles. The old man bowed and went to inform the bird caretakers to bring the requested Prego birds.
“What should I write?” Lilith asked. She only had one letter to write and two places to write to.
“I will write to our home while you can write to your parents. I will leave an empty space for you to write something.” Vincent responded. He smiled and asked, “Is this okay for you?”
Lilith nodded. There was no need for words as her bright smile showed how pleased she was with this arrangement.
Vincent began writing his letter while Lilith hers.
Vincent’s was split into categories. The first was to ask how Sakura was doing and if she wasn’t too bored without them around. He continued with how the academy isn’t that bad, and they are doing fine.
Vincent asked how the Emerald Mansion residents were doing on the next part. He also asked if there was any trouble or anything out of the ordinary.
The last part was left empty for Lilith to write. After his part of the letter was done, Vincent placed it beside Lilith to write in the empty space.
.....
Soon, the three letters were done.
Clair wrote to her family and mentioned how she is in the company of the Lionheart couple, the infamous Graymoon’s son and a loner elf.
In her letter, Lilith wrote to her family. Lilith mentioned how she was doing fine with her husband by her side. She mentioned how she had to run and continued with Vincent running with her on his back.
Lilith wrote a short message asking Maid Xu how they were faring in the other letter. She told Sakura that she missed her company and told the kids that she wanted to see them soon.
The old man returned. Behind him were two bird caretakers holding a large cage with a Pergo bird inside. The bird looked comfortable, and its feathers were clean. The bird caretakers were professional as well.
The old man gave Vincent, Lilith, and Clair a document to sign. After the form was signed, the old man requested to receive the letters folded in half, and the words needed to be on the inside for complete privacy.
The old man folded their half-folded letter multiple times and gave it to the respective bird caretakers. They attached the letter to their leg carefully and gently stroked their head. It was a signal to leave as the two birds flew away swiftly.
“There is no need to visit the mailroom every day. The homeroom teacher must have already explained yesterday, but because the Lord and Ladies are first years, let me remind you.” The old man took out his staff card.
“New Mail?” He said. The card in his hand flashed once.
“Carrier Available?” He said next. The card in his hand flashed five times.
“One time means no, while flashing five times means yes. ” The old man explained in a user-friendly manner. He might have decades of experience under his belt. Handling first-year students were like handling a frequent customer.
[I like this old man. I hope he can assist us next time.]
-Yeah, this old man is likable... but teacher Maria forgot to tell us more commands.-
[I have a feeling there are more commands to uncover.]
-...-
“Thank you for your service. I hope you can assist us next time.” Vincent said while standing up. He extended his hand and offered a handshake.
The old man was momentary surprised, but he quickly regained his composure and shook Vincent’s hand. “My college also had his hand shaken by a student this morning. I have a good feeling for the first years of this generation.” The old man said with a smile.
Vincent and Kazumi became curious. “Was is someone of the Sunrise family?” He asked.
“No. He was of the Wittwoll family.” The old man glanced at Lilith and cautiously continued, “He was young and slightly overweight. However, I hope Lady Lionheart will not think I am insulting you.”
“O-Okay.” Lilith blushed when the attention suddenly shifted on her.
[None of your classmates have the Wittwoll surname. Since the old man confirmed him to be a first-year student, he must be from Class B.]
-I hope he is in the same team as Vopor then. This Wittwoll appears to be a good guy.-
Coincidently, as they left the mailroom, Vopor appeared in front of them. Behind him were four young ladies.
“Vincent, my friend, it is good to see you.” Vopor greeted with a smile.
“It’s good to see you too. ” Vincent replied.
“I see that Lady Lilith and Lady Clair are with you. Is perhaps Nick also with you?” Nick asked.
*Cough* Vincent averted his gaze and answered, “Let’s say he is resting after a ~good~ workout session. Ohh, and he is in my team.”
“So, who are the ladies behind you?” Vincent continued to change the subject.
[Yeah, I am quite curious to know who they are to Vopor. Maybe Cupid Kazumi could help Vopor with a girl or two, hehe.]
[Or do you perhaps want to be the only harem lord amongst your friends?]
-...-
“Hi there. I am Fantaffy Mellow” *Wink* A curvy teen introduced herself with confidence.
“Go-good day... I am Beatressa Melarossa. Owwie...” A teen with a pair of glasses introduced herself and bit her tongue.
“I am Stacy Starblue. Nice to meet the famous couple, hehe.” A teen with makeup on her face gazed at Vincent and Lilith’s chest and looked at the Lionheart insignia with a smile.
“Good day, Vopor’s acquaintances. I am Flika Melcar.” The last of the teens introduced herself.
Vincent, Lilith, and Clair introduced themselves next.
Vincent remembered about the test and requested, “Vopor, could tell your father that I need to meet with him on Saturday? I would like to request a cabin to be completed by the end of the month.”
“Sure.” Vopor agreed.
After chatting for about five more minutes, Vopor revealed how his teammates are on the royal faction’s side and their family is at the Baron rank. Then Vopor and his teammates continued to the mailroom.
“Vincent, why do we need a cabin and urgently build by the last day of the month? Aren’t we going to have a test on an island?...” Lilith asked. She stopped and recalled how Vincent could upgrade the space his Soul Dimensional Storage could store. “Don’t tell me we will.”
[It appears Lilith realized your plan immediately. I like wise women like me, hehe.]
“Yes, living comfortably isn’t cheating. Or is it? Hahaha.” Vincent laughed while imagining the faces of anyone who discovers a cabin that mysteriously appeared all of a sudden.
Clair didn’t know what they were talking about, but she kept silent and watched Vincent laugh and Lilith show mixed feelings. She looked happy yet worried at the same time. Clair became more nervous to ask.
Since the library was going to open the next month, Vincent couldn’t visit. He, Lilith, and Clair walked around the academy. Later, they used their academy card and returned to their private island.
As the blinding light faded and their eyes opened, Lupa and Plow were walking their way. Lupa’s white dress and Plow were covered in dirt. Both had irregular breathing, as if they were recently running or doing an activity together.
Vivid and Pussy arrived next. It appeared the four with hearing higher than humans approached to welcome their arrival.
Pussy went to Clair and asked her how she went. The free-spirited cat girl winked at Vincent and Lilith before she stole Clair away. The two of them went to Clair’s room.
Vivid respectfully bowed and said, “Lord Vincent and Lady Lilith, I thank the two of you for bringing Lady Iris here. She told me how to massage my Master’s body and also provided some soothing herbs. My Master looks better now, and he should be able to attend the lesson tomorrow.”
“No need to thank me. Thanking my wife, Iris, is all you need to do.” Vincent shook his head and replied.
Vivid thought that Vincent needed privacy, so he respectfully bowed again and went to take care of Nick.
[Looks like Iris was busy today. But I wonder what these two trouble makers did to become this dirty.]
Vincent looked at Lupa and Plow. “I hope the two of you have a friendly competition. ” He asked with his arms crossed.
“We competed on who digs the most holes for sister Iris. ” Lupa said. She excitedly wagged her tail and continued, “Guess what, my mate. Hehe, I won.”
*Pho* “Plow let wolf win because Plow’s bottom felt strange.” Plow lost because of this excuse, it appeared.
[So Lupa and Plow helped Iris plant the seeds behind the mansion. While doing this, Plow felt the call of nature, but she could stop, or Lupa would win faster.]
“Plow, you can go to relieve yourself now. It is better to take care of the nature call before...”
*PHO!* “Plow does not have poop in tummy!” *Pho* “Plow felt the same butt feeling when Plow’s beautiful tails appeared.” Plow explained grumpily.
[Tails? Does it mean using her tails could allow Plow for a more refined control?]
-Plow is continuously using one tail to shape itself as a leg. Are you saying it might be a similar case?-
[Vincent, you and me are of a similar guess.]
