A Professional Wingman for Many Years

How much longer do we have to fly?

Upon hearing the question from inside the cabin, Pig Head Emperor on the deck hurriedly replied, "We're getting close to Gray. We should be able to catch up with him in about three or four minutes."

"Too slow, go faster!"

"Yes!"

As soon as the Pig Head Emperor finished speaking, the speed of the bluish-white boat increased significantly.

A short while later, the small boats moving in opposite directions met Gray on the outskirts of Finnil Town, and the three's journey came to a standstill.

"Irene, we've caught up with Gray!"

"Um!"

Not long after the nasal sound faded, light footsteps sounded, and then two aloof beauties, as cold as snow, appeared beside the Pig Head Emperor.

"Huh? Isn't this my house?"

Stealing a glance at Her Majesty the Queen's face, and seeing that it was still cloudy and turning snowy, the Pig Head Emperor kept his mouth shut, not daring to make a sound.

"Hey, are you deaf? Didn't you hear what Sister Ulu asked?"

"Yes, I heard it, but how could I dare to speak if you didn't give me a word?"

After muttering to himself, Pig Head Emperor suddenly realized and said, "Irene, you know I have no sense of direction and am not very sensitive to my surroundings, so I dare not say anything carelessly."

"Of course I know you have no sense of direction, but in my memory, you seem to only be uncomfortable in new environments, while you can recognize familiar environments at a glance."

After his wife punctured his tire, he was momentarily at a loss for words.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly awkward, the Ice Beauty, feeling somewhat guilty, spoke up, "Let's hurry down, or Gray will get far away!"

After giving the Pig Head Emperor a cold snort, Irene smiled sweetly at the Ice Beauty and said, "Sister Ulu is right, we can't waste any more time here."

As soon as Her Majesty the Queen finished speaking, the Pig Head Emperor immediately and astutely controlled the windship to descend.

"This little guy is in pretty good spirits!"

Gray did look somewhat dejected, but compared to Leon before, he was definitely in much better spirits. Therefore, after Her Majesty the Queen finished speaking, the Pig Head Emperor and the Ice Beauty nodded in unison.

"Hey, give this little guy a live broadcast of what's going on in his mind, let's see what he's planning to do!" (Um... don't ask me why the Queen knows the term "live broadcast," just two words—it's necessary for the plot.)

The Pig Head Emperor, who always obeyed Her Majesty the Queen, did not immediately carry out the order this time. Instead, he turned to look at the Ice Beauty first, and only after she nodded did he begin the broadcast.

"I've said goodbye to Ulu, it's time to head to the western countries!"

"I hope there really are a lot of powerful mages there, as Ulu said, otherwise... oh well, I can always come back!"

"Ulu, don't worry, I will use the Shape-Making Magic well and won't let you down!"

"Gray will arrive in Finnil Town soon, why don't we go there and wait for him? (Old Suo)"

"No need!" (Ulu)

"Sister Ulu, we..."

Before Her Majesty the Queen could finish speaking, the Ice Beauty, her eyes red-rimmed, said softly, "Sister Irene, really, it's not necessary. Let's go back!"

"Ulu, don't worry, I'll come back and keep an eye on them after I've seen you two off."

"Sister Ulu, although this idiot is a bit of a womanizer, he's quite strong. With him watching over them, Gray and the others will be fine."

Hearing their words of comfort, the Ice Beauty nodded.

"By the way, didn't someone say before that they wanted Sister Ulu to meet her daughter? Why hasn't there been any news about that?"

The moment Irene finished speaking, the forgetful man instantly remembered his promise.

"Yes, yes, let's hurry over to Ultear's place!"

"Hmm!" (PS: At this moment, the Ice Beauty nodded.)

"What are you standing there for? Get the boat moving!" (Irene)

With the two big shots speaking, the Pig Head Emperor naturally dared not delay. However, instead of setting sail, he casually scattered a shower of Silver Radiance.

"Buzz!"

Upon arriving at this cramped abode, Her Majesty the Queen did not immediately open her eyes like the two people beside her. Instead, she twitched her nostrils, sensing the atmosphere within.

After spending three seconds analyzing the gas sample, Her Majesty the Queen gave the Pig Head Emperor a whack on the back of the head without any hesitation.

"Bang!"

"Boom!"

Fortunately, although Brian was a villain, he had never embezzled construction fees, so Old Suo was stopped by the solid wall and did not cross the building, thus exposing their identities.

Just as the bewildered Ice Beauty looked to her side in confusion, the voice of the Pig Head Emperor came from the wall in front of her.

"Irene, why..."

"Hmph! Why... why don't you just smell the aroma in this room and you'll know!"

"The taste? (Ulu, Old Suo)"

After muttering to himself, Ulu, oblivious to what was going on, actually went to smell the aroma, while Pig Head Emperor, his face flushed with embarrassment, struggled to come up with a solution.

"Splash!"

Just then, the water curtain door suddenly opened, and a lady in a nightgown was pushed in.

In an instant, their eyes met, and all four looked completely bewildered.

"Um?"

Hearing the surprised voice outside the door, the lady was the first to react. She quickly and discreetly flicked out three wisps of purple smoke.

"Ultear, is something wrong?"

"It's nothing, I'm just too tired. You can all leave now!"

"Yes!"

After confirming that there was nothing unusual about number 3373, the water curtain door was closed, and the footsteps outside gradually faded away.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

As three gusts of wind were sent out, the purple smoke suddenly dissipated, revealing the three people hidden inside.

"Teacher, what happened to you?"

"Teacher? (Ulu, Irene)"

"Some minor mishaps happened, so that's all for me!"

When talking about the minor accident, the Pig Head Emperor glanced smugly at the red-haired beauty opposite him.

"Are you alright Ultear?"

"Don't worry, it's just some superficial injuries!"

"That's good!"

As she spoke, the lady pried the Pig Head Emperor off the wall and helped him sit down on her small bed.

After regaining his footing, the Pig Head Emperor first gave the other party a head pat, then pointed at the Ice Beauty and said, "Ultear, look who I brought!"

Following the teacher's directions, the young lady then noticed her mother standing to one side. (Would you believe me if I wrote this? I certainly wouldn't, it's too far-fetched! But don't worry, I'll explain why I wrote it this way later, so please bear with me!)

After the mother and daughter locked eyes, the longing hidden in their eyes surged forth instantly, followed by a classic moment of embracing and weeping.

Upon witnessing this scene, Her Majesty the Queen was overcome with emotion. She bypassed the mother and daughter and rushed straight into the arms of the Pig Head Emperor. Um... friendly reminder: Her Majesty the Queen didn't pound her chest with her little fists, nor did she cry like a baby. Instead, she practiced Shaolin martial art— Two-Finger Zen Technique —on that plain. (PS: For detailed training methods and functions of Two-Finger Zen Technique, please consult your female friends.) (PPS: Here, "female friends" specifically refers to married women or those with extensive dating experience.)

"Lady wingman, come to my rescue! I'm about to crash!" (Old Suo's coded message)

"Old Suo, hang in there a little longer, I'm refueling, almost done!" (Lady replies)

"Lady wingman, please hurry... please hurry!" (Old Suo's reply)

"Understood!" (The lady replied.)

Considering the situation of the lead aircraft, the female wingman quickly finished the process of embracing and crying, and swiftly entered the mother-daughter conversation.

"Mother, how come you're with the teacher?"

"This is what happened, not long ago..."

So, the Ice Beauty recounted her battle against Deliora, her rescue by Old Suo, her visit to her two disciples, and her journey here. Um... to ensure her daughter understood every detail, the Ice Beauty also explained the origins of her two disciples during the narration. But to her surprise, her daughter wasn't unfamiliar with her life at all; on the contrary, she seemed very familiar with it, as if the Ice Beauty had always been by her side.

Just as she was marveling at it, the lady carefully took out a Crystal ball and handed it to her.

"Buzz!"

The moment it reached the Ice Beauty's palm, the Crystal ball released a pale blue light, and then familiar scenes appeared inside.

"This... this..."

As the astonished mother looked at her daughter, the other woman whispered in her ear, "Actually, the teacher secretly takes pictures of your daily life and shows them to me every day, which is why I know so much about your situation!"

Upon hearing her daughter's words, two blushes instantly appeared on the Ice Beauty's face.

"Don't worry, although this teacher sounds like a pervert, he's actually very sensible and hasn't taken any photos of your private parts." (PS: You all know what "privacy" means here, right?)

With her daughter's assurance, the temperature on the Ice Beauty's cheeks dropped considerably, but it didn't completely disappear. After all, she was being closely watched, no matter what.

"Lady, wingman, lead aircraft in danger! Immediate rescue needed! Immediate rescue needed! (Old Suo telegram)"

"Received, will act immediately!" (Lady replied)

Upon receiving another distress signal from the lead aircraft, the lady wingman knew it was time to deploy. She handed over all her treasured Crystal ball to the Ice Beauty, and while the Ice Queen was checking their contents, she rushed to the battlefield.

"Ah!"

"Teachers, what are you doing?!"

Hearing the screams behind him, the teacher quickly sat up straight, and the beautiful woman clinging to him immediately detached herself.

"Well... let me introduce you. This stunningly beautiful, kind, and generous woman is your teacher's wife, my wife, Irene Belserion!"

After the Pig Head Emperor finished speaking, the lady gave a shy bow.

"Greetings, Master's wife!"

"Oh! Such a good boy!"

After gaining the teacher's wife's approval, the young lady quickly walked to her teacher's side, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "Teacher, remember to call me next time you're part-time as Bandit. I want to steal a handsome husband too!"

"Gulp!" (PS: This is not the sound of swallowing saliva.)

"Pfft! (Duet)"

"Haha! (Duet)"

Seeing the Pig Head Emperor sprawled on the ground, Her Majesty the Queen and the Ice Beauty burst into laughter.
