After some time hugging in the restroom, Kevin Clark urged Daisy Zane to take a shower.
When Daisy Zane emerged from the restroom after her shower, Kevin had already showered in a different room and returned.
Dressed in a sling sleep dress, Daisy didn’t make the “New Moon” tattoo on her left arm disappear as she once would after a shower; instead, she showed it openly.
Kevin Clark gazed at the two characters “New Moon”.
He suddenly recalled that when the words were tattooed on her arm, Yoshua Archer had teased: “New Moon, your arm is as pretty as a young girl’s.”
She turned out to indeed be a young girl.
Kevin had always wanted to meet her early in life, but when they met early, he failed to recognize her.
That was quite a twist of fate.
“Dry your hair yourself.” Kevin said.
Daisy Zane nodded. “Are you going to be busy?”
Kevin sensed what she meant by ‘you better hurry up with your stuff’: “What if I don’t?”
Daisy Zane
“If I had known we would be estranged after just a shower, why would I go to another room to wash?” Kevin lowered his gaze and spoke to her.
Daisy Zane:
Kevin smiled. He understood it would take time.
He placed his hand on the back of her neck, walking her to his side, then kissed her forehead: “You go to sleep. I have some matters to attend to.”
“Hmm.”
After Kevin left, Daisy Zane couldn’t sleep either.
She couldn’t fall asleep, and it was also daybreak. So she revised her script a bit more.
An unknown force entered Mountain Sea Continent, and the security of the place needed to be strengthened to prevent a potential disaster.
The remnants of the Thousand Mountains Alliance must be dealt with.
The Thousand Mountains Alliance’s influence in Mountain Sea Continent was not as great as Dark Radiance and Hundred Demons Pavilion, but it was not insignificant. Thus, there was a significant impact on the balance of power in the continent when it fell.
Everything needed to be balanced.
Dark Radiance’s training selection couldn’t be delayed for too long either.
It wasn’t just Dark Radiance that was busy; even the Hundred Demons Pavilion was swamped. Power shifts were no small matter, requiring utmost attention lest they lead to a whirlwind of bloodshed.
Daisy Zane only spent a day and a night at Dark Radiance.
She only saw Kevin during lunch and dinner this day and night. Kevin didn’t come back to sleep that night either.
There was no deliberate avoidance; they were genuinely busy.
But it also gave Daisy Zane time to adjust.
After a day and a night, Daisy Zane saw that no significant issues affected the Silver Palace. Moreover, she was afraid that they wouldn’t have time to deal with the matter of her being New Moon right now.
So she returned to Hundred Demons Pavilion.
She couldn’t stay in Mountain Sea Continent and let Luke handle everything while she idled around.
She and Kevin wouldn’t be able to see each other in person for the time being, but he never missed any of their daily phone calls.
No matter how busy, he never missed the calls.
It wasn’t until a week later that everything gradually settled down.
But because Daisy Zane was dealing with some of the Hundred Demons Pavilion’s unresolved tasks, she was even busier than Kevin for three more days.
When she finished, she returned to Dark Radiance.
After spending two nights and a day there, they returned to their home country.
Kevin had originally planned to stay in Mountain Sea Continent for half a month, but it was extended by a few days due to the sudden situation.
Both the Easton Group and the Research Institute had pending matters for Kevin.
“We’re going back?” Daisy Zane looked at Kevin, who was packing his clothes.
“Not willing to part with the Silver Palace?” Kevin asked.
“Hmm,” Daisy Zane acknowledged wholeheartedly.
Kevin squinted his eyes: “I didn’t see you being reluctant to leave me when you ran off to Hundred Demons Pavilion, little girl.”
Daisy Zane raised her mouth corner, leaning on the cloakroom doorway: “How will you deal with my being New Moon?”
“I think I can handle it as I please?”
“Hmm.”
Although Daisy Zane was gradually adapting to Kevin’s identity, she hadn’t returned completely to her old self.
For example… she would subconsciously respond to Kevin’s words.
It seemed like a conditioned reflex.
Kevin was unsure whether to be glad or worried about her newfound “obedience.”
“So…” Kevin looked at her, an evil smile in his eyes, “next time at night, I get to call the shots a few times.”
Daisy Zane:
Kevin looked at her for a while, then chuckled softly to himself.
Daisy Zane held back from giving him a glance, turning and walking away.
Kevin laughed as he caught up with her, hugging her from behind: “Actually, I don’t need that privilege. Mrs. Clark already has it.”
As they packed their things and carried their luggage downstairs, the likes of Adrian Roberts and James Cooper were there, too.
As soon as Daisy Zane took the last step, several people suddenly came to surround her.
“Lady Zane, we didn’t expect you to return to your country so soon. We didn’t have time to prepare anything. Please accept our small token of appreciation.”
Adrian Roberts opened the box in his hand and presented it to Daisy Zane.
Inside was a handgun.
Daisy Zane:
Adrian Roberts said: “This gun is custom-made, with improved range and accuracy. It also has minimal recoil. It’s the only one in the world.”
Just as Daisy Zane was about to speak, James Cooper abruptly said: “Lady Zane, this dagger is my piece of war loot, incredibly sharp. The handle contains a red gemstone, which complements your temperament nicely. I’m not good with daggers, so it’s always laid in my drawer. I took it out for you, Lady Zane, please don’t mind.”
Daisy Zane:
“Mine isn’t as deadly; it’s a small hidden weapon,” Yoshua Archer said. “The main thing is that it’s fun to play with. I got it for you to have fun.”
Daisy Zane looked at the thing in his hand and thought that if she played with the weapon in her country, she’d probably get caught.
“They’re all about fighting and killing. Mine is more practical,” said Edward Darkmoon, holding a stone. “This is a piece of jadeite rough stone. There’s definitely something good inside. Take it back to your country and have a set of jewelry made. If you don’t want to do that, you can use it to hit someone.”
Daisy Zane really couldn’t see how this thing was practical. Fôllôw ?ew stories at n?/v(e)lb/in(.)com
The group of people chattered and clamored as they surrounded Daisy Zane with gifts. They even started boasting about their items while still gifting them.
As Kevin stood behind Daisy Zane, he turned into a background prop that no one cared about.
No one paid any attention to Third Master, but they were all revolving around his wife, showering her with gifts.
Did his beloved wife need gifts from these people?
Kevin’s expression grew colder inch by inch. Finally, unable to tolerate it anymore, he whispered: “Are you guys really that idle? Do you need me to find you something to do?”
The group instantly quieted down.
Then… like chased ducks, they all ran away.
Kevin and Daisy Zane got into the car. Those who had just run off came back to surround them.
They watched them leave.
Even after the car started, Adrian Roberts shouted: “Lady Zane, come visit us whenever you have time.”
“Seems like my wife is quite popular.” Kevin said.
Daisy Zane had only offered suggestions to a few people during her downtime. Besides that, if anyone had questions, she simply answered them.
“It’s because of Third Master’s fame.”
