Chapter 127

Compared to the metaphors and rhetoric in her earlier content, this concluding sentence seemed rather ordinary.

But only Leon and Losweiser could hear the subtle nuances in their daughter's words:

When Losweiser and Leon appear on screen together, she always refers to them as "Mom" first, then "Daddy".

But this time, she put her Daddy first.

Noa is lucky to have a Dad who can understand her little details;

Her Dad was also very lucky. Even though Noa didn't accept him at first, he loved Noa no less than Mu En, and this love eventually melted away the barrier between father and daughter.

The father and daughter looked at each other. No need for many words; everything that needed to be expressed had already been conveyed in that essay. Now, they could understand each other's thoughts simply by meeting each other's eyes.

Losweiser felt quite gratified watching this scene.

Although she and Leon always had some strange points of contention and competitive spirit regarding their daughter.

But over the past few months, Losweiser has witnessed their transformation from "I won't let you touch me" at the beginning, to the first "Go Daddy!" at the sports meet, and now to "I have the best dad in the world."

She was the witness to Leon and Noa breaking the ice, and no one could understand the emotion Leon felt at that moment better than her.

Well, I was originally planning to tease my daughter afterwards about why she wrote so much for her Daddy, saying that Mom was jealous.

But after thinking about it, I decided against it. My daughter having a complete and happy childhood is more important than anything else.

The vice principal stood next to the homeroom teacher, clapping as he asked in a low voice, "Well? It's not that I'm biased towards their family, Noa's essay is indeed well-written, isn't it?"

The homeroom teacher nodded repeatedly, praising her sincerely without any flattery, "The emotions are more genuine, and the writing is more fluent. No wonder Principal Olet expects her to write more. Even I want to read more of her work."

The vice principal joked, "Then why don't you just organize a few more essay competitions?"

Class teacher. "That's a good idea."

Sitting in the front row Leon and his wife could vaguely hear the conversation between the vice principal and the homeroom teacher amidst the applause.

How about we arrange it more often?

Please don't come!

One date is already the limit for us!

If we come a few more times, I can't guarantee I won't leave you, you old dragon, hanging in Sky City as the last spot for our date.

After the essay competition's awards ceremony concluded, some parents who were already acquainted with their children started chatting, while others went to the homeroom teacher to inquire about their child's recent performance and academic progress.

The vice principal then kept Leon and his family in the classroom.

Leon knew that if this old B-dragon didn't get his fill of being an executioner today, he definitely wouldn't let them off easily.

"Mr. Leon, Miss Losweiser, Noa's essay is truly the most sincere one I have ever read in my hundreds of years of service. I even want to hang it on my office wall to replace Principal Olet's bust."

The couple quickly waved their hands, "No, no, Vice Principal, no matter how well Noa writes, she can't be disrespectful to the Principal. Right, Noa?"

Noa nodded repeatedly.

She knew that Dad Mom had no chance against the vice principal, so she would immediately do whatever he asked her to do.

The main theme is a family of three working together to fight against the vice principal.

"Ah, this is truly a rare and precious article. To even attempt to replicate it would be an insult! It should be one of a kind in the world!"

The three of them forced smiles, displaying remarkable tacit understanding.

"Oh, by the way, since Noa's essay wasn't included in the class ranking, Principal Olet asked me to bring her one of her own pens as a gift to Noa to make up for this small regret."

As he spoke, the vice principal took a pen out of his pocket, bent down slightly, and handed it to Noa.

Noa took the pen with both hands and examined it carefully.

The pen body exudes a unique metallic luster, with its black and silver-white colors complementing each other, like stars in the night sky.

The pen is slightly heavy, and holding it in your hand is like holding a piece of quiet history.

Leon only knew that in human society, only respected and accomplished senior scholars would receive pens from their peers upon retirement, as this represented respect and recognition.

In the minds of Dragon Race, the meaning of giving a fountain pen as a gift may be slightly different, but ultimately it should represent recognition.

"Principal Olet rarely shows such high regard for a student. Noa, your talent and hard work have earned you Principal Olet's approval. Keep up the good work!" The vice principal patted her on the shoulder.

"Okay, thank you, Vice Principal, and Principal Olet," Noa said politely.

The vice principal straightened up, looked at the couple, and said, "Thank you both for raising such an outstanding child for the academy. The academy will certainly live up to your expectations and nurture Noa well."

Losweiser nodded and smiled, exchanging pleasantries with the principal.

Leon also wanted to say a few polite words.

But when I think about how your academy trains elites only to fight against Dragon Slayer...

He didn't know what to say.

Sigh, I can only silently hope that my daughter graduates slowly, and preferably doesn't skip a grade, otherwise Dad little padded jacket might turn into a thorny vest.

After exchanging a few words, the vice principal had other work to attend to and quickly left.

Today is Friday, and the awards ceremony we just attended took up the last class of the day.

In other words, Noa can now go home with Leon and Losweiser for the weekend.

The family of three left the teaching building and walked towards the college gate.

Noa looked down at the pen in her hand.

Although it was a gift from Principal Olet, she knew that writing that article was definitely not her own achievement.

She looked up at her Daddy, then at her Mom, and was momentarily conflicted.

"What's wrong, Noa?" Losweiser noticed that her daughter seemed to have something to say, so she asked.

"Ah... I think you all helped a lot in gaining Principal Olet's favor, so I thought this pen should be given to you, but there's only one..."

Noa said, "I don't know who to give it to."

The child was quite honest; if he didn't know, he simply said he didn't know.

The couple looked up at each other, and Losweiser spoke first, "Give it to your Daddy. Daddy helped you build a solid foundation in your studies before you started school. He's been a great help to you."

Oh, Dragon Queen, when did your vision broaden so much?

I thought you were going to argue with me about this too.

Looking back now, it seems like I had a narrow perspective.

Leon thought for a moment and said, "No, your vision is too broad. My vision is even broader."

"Let's give it to Mom."

Leon said, "Daddy doesn't usually use pens, but Mom does use them when she's working."

He wasn't lying. When he went to Losweiser's study to get the library key last time, he saw Losweiser using a fountain pen to process some paper reports and such.

With the pen her daughter gave her, she'll definitely work even harder, Dragon Queen.

Losweiser raised an eyebrow. Dragon Slayer, so kind? Is he trying to project a tall and mighty image in front of his daughter?

Hmph, I won't let you succeed so easily.

"Let's give it to Daddy."

"Give it to Mom."

"For Daddy."

"For Mom."

"For Daddy ~"

"For Mom!"

Noa was about to faint.

But before she fainted, she shoved the pen into Losweiser's hand.

"I listened to my Daddy and gave the pen to my Mom."

What a smooth way of putting it! My dear daughter, you've learned quite a bit about human relationships at school!

They returned to the Silver Dragon Sanctuary before dinner.

As soon as she heard a sound in the yard, Mu En scurried out and eagerly snuggled up to her older sister.

They do this every week, and they never get tired of it.

As Losweiser explained before, because most Dragon Race are only children, they cherish and depend on their siblings. 3.

Leon thought for a moment, then abruptly asked, "Were you like this with Ischa when you were little? It's hard to imagine you hugging your sister and begging for a kiss."

Losweiser kicked him.

Let's get back to the main topic. (Lin)

Although Noah didn't get a clear ranking in this essay Noa, everyone knows that a champion is still a champion—[the rest is missing].

Even Void Champion is still a champion. (Wine)

And this was acknowledged by the principal himself! (Afternoon)

So we should still celebrate.

At the sumptuous dinner table, Mu En asked for her sister's essay and read it several times from beginning to end.

Then, shaking her ahoge (cowlick), she pointed to the content above and asked Noa, "Sister, why does the word 'younger sister' appear so few times in your essay! Why! Don't you Mu En anymore!"

Noa didn't answer, but instead stuffed a chicken leg into her sister's mouth. "What do you think?"

Mu En's taste buds, and even the part of her brain responsible for feeling jealous, were instantly conquered by the fragrant chicken leg. She put down her essay, nodded repeatedly, and mumbled indistinctly while biting into the chicken leg.

"Sister Mu En! It's all in the chicken leg!"

Noa ruffled her sister's little tuft of hair, then took back her essay and set it aside.

We enjoyed the dinner very much.

After finishing the meal, Noa took Mu En back to her room.

Having eaten a bit too much chicken leg, Mu En lay sprawled on the bed, slowly digesting his food.

Noa quietly took out her small wooden box from under the bed.

Looking at the thin layer of dust covering the wooden box, Noa felt a pang of emotion; it seemed like she hadn't put anything in it for a long time.

A child who is surrounded by love has no extra energy to try to prove that they are loved.

Noa blew off the dust and then opened it.

Inside was still a black metal fragment, a note with her name on it, and a simple, handmade Rubik's Cube.

She rearranged the items to make room, and then carefully placed her essay inside.

After admiring it with satisfaction, Noa locked the wooden box and pushed it back under the bed.

As soon as I got up, I heard Mu En groaning in bed, "Sister... Mu En's stomach hurts~"

"You've just eaten so much food and then you're lying down, of course you'll feel uncomfortable."

Noa tugged at her sister's wrist. "Come on, let's go for a walk, stroll around a bit, and then come back."

Mu En swayed twice on the bed, then slid off the bed, put on her shoes and skirt, and followed Noa hand in hand to the Holy Temple's backyard.

Meanwhile, Leon and Losweiser were cleaning up the mess after dinner.

The work assignment remained the same: he removed the stains, and she rinsed.

When Leon gets old, he might publish an autobiography, and when someone asks him what kept him going during the time he was captured by the Silver Dragon Queen.

Leon said he made a living by washing dishes.

Even in prison, you have to operate a sewing machine; when you're a prisoner, all you have to do is wash dishes.

Looking at it this way, being captured is still more comfortable.

Leon shook his head, stopping his rambling thoughts.

"You put away the pen Noa gave you?" Leon started a conversation.
