You Have a New Job (Continued)

Therefore, such a nearly complete gathering is quite rare even in the last 50,000 years.

Why are you all not saying anything?

Anqi wore a bewildered expression, seemingly oblivious to everything.

After taking off her pink apron, Anqi chose to sit down next to Apponia, whom she had just met, instead of choosing Elysia, with whom she had always shared a bed, or her master.

Hehe, Apponia's mom is so soft and cuddly, Anqi loves her!

Apponia perhaps sensed Anqi's joy, smiled gently, and reached out to stroke Anqi's head.

"Thank you for your hard work, little Anqi. The dishes are very plentiful."

"It's nothing, Apponia... as long as everyone likes it."

Anqi smiled brightly, her usual expressionless face almost completely gone. Coupled with the obvious pause in the second half of her sentence, her focus was unmistakably clear.

Immediately, Elysia, Mobius, Vill-V, Hua, and others who had enjoyed the little girl's devoted service all narrowed their eyes in unison.

What, you're already thinking about getting tired of the old and wanting something new?

Am I, this beautiful girl/genius/master, no longer attractive?

Girls can sometimes be just as competitive as boys, like right now.

Thus, an unremarkable dinner party suddenly turned into a competition—serving food to Anqi and then receiving food in return from Anqi became a contest among several female Flame-Chasers.

Eden and Pardofelis, always eager for a good show, also joined in.

"Little Anqi, come and eat this. It looks nutritious."

"Thank you, you eat too."

This dialogue continues in a loop.

Sue, Kosma, and Sakura, who were outsiders, ate in unusual silence. They were too embarrassed to join in, but seeing Anqi putting food into other people's bowls with a sweet smile—to be honest, they were a little envious.

Which lonely elderly person could resist such a well-behaved and sweet child?

It's not that Griseo is bad, it's just that she and Anqi are different types. Who wouldn't want more of the group's darling? Who wouldn't want to cuddle up a new cutie, right?

Anqi didn't sense anything amiss; she was used to being the group's darling and only felt everyone's enthusiasm, so she tried her best to reciprocate. In the midst of a harmonious meal, suddenly Elysia exclaimed in surprise:

"Huh?"

Anqi looked over when she heard the sound.

But then she saw Elysia holding chopsticks cutely, her big eyes slightly wide, looking at her in surprise.

Anqi tilted her head in confusion:

"What's wrong?"

"Little Anqi, your senses should be very sharp. Feel it for yourself, is there anything different?"

"?"

Anqi was stunned for a moment.

To be honest, she hasn't come out of Apponia's gentle embrace yet. The feeling of being both an older sister and a young mother is so wonderful, it's like rolling around in a sea of flowers.

But after Elysia gave her a hint, Anqi carefully sensed the changes in her body and quickly noticed a peculiar but by no means weak power.

It is a new blessing power that we have never had before.

Without much thought, Anqi quickly realized what it was—the power that ordinary visitors to the Land of the Past considered the greatest treasure, the Power of Imprint.

Anqi looked at the subtle power flowing in her palm, turned her head, and saw Apponia's beautiful face, gentle as if radiating holy light.

Apponia took a tissue and wiped Anqi's mouth, smiling as she said:

"What's wrong, little Anqi?"

"Um, you..."

"It's just a small gift, but if it can help you, then that's the greatest meaning of my existence."

Anqi had nothing more to say. Apart from tightly hugging Apponia's delicate and soft waist and her eyes welling up with tears, she couldn't utter a single word.

This is the only Flame-Chasers who gave him the engraving right after they met.

Just like Su, who left her with all the wealth accumulated over thousands of years when they first met.

Anqi sniffed.

"Don't be so good to me..."

Otherwise, I might really risk falling out with Kevin and impulsively move the entire Land of the Past into the Theater of Domination.

At this moment, all the jealousy and rivalry surrounding the little darling had vanished.

The Flame-Chasers' gazes softened.

Even Kosma, who wanted to discuss Griseo's problem with Anqi, shook his head and changed his mind—let's talk about it another day. For now, let this child indulge in her charm.
