The Later It Gets, the More Excited I Become
She was still wearing a black girls' high school uniform that didn't suit the occasion.
"I've already told you I'm very busy lately, and I have a lot of things I don't want to do and need to deal with."
Kukusu loosened his tie and then casually hung his coat on the hanger.
"So, how is the 'snake' doing now?"
Upon hearing Kukusu's words, Kisaragi Kirio immediately manipulated the electronic touchpad in her hand, projecting a map onto the office monitor. It was a three-dimensional plan view of the seabed surrounding Island of Gen'ei.
In the lower right corner of the map, an arrow flashing red is rapidly approaching Island of Gen'ei.
"Excellent! My time is about to begin!"

Chapter 278 The More They Got to Meet Up That Evening, the More Excited They Became (4000 words, please subscribe)
The fireworks display really got everyone excited!
So much so that even after the fireworks display ended close to midnight, not a single person felt even slightly sleepy.
Everyone was so excited they couldn't fall asleep.
Like now, in William's room.
Three innocent-looking girls were fast asleep on the large sofa.
Aurora and Nagisa Akatsuki sandwiched Kishiryu Yukina between them, leaning on each other's shoulders as they slept soundly.
Scattered on the table were playing cards that three little girls used to pass the time when they couldn't sleep at night.
Use a game mechanic with penalties to play until all the initial enthusiasm fades and you're completely exhausted.
Of course, the outcome of the battle could be discerned from the numerous black lines drawn on Aurora's face.
In this battle, Aurora and Akatsuki Kojo suffered the most.
None of the adults or Aiba Asagi participated.
Among them, Kishiryu Yukina, who possesses the ability of spiritual vision and superb calculation skills, naturally stands out.
This can also be attributed to the unique physical condition of Kishiryu Yukina.
However, for Aurora, who is essentially Star Beast and possesses naturally superior information processing abilities, to have fallen to this state is simply a disgrace to Star Beast.
"... Really, Yaze, just take them all back to their rooms!"
"Sleeping like that will make you catch a cold."
Looking at the three little girls sleeping soundly on the sofa, completely unsuspecting, William smiled helplessly.
All three were wearing revealing clothes; their oversized T-shirts slipped slightly off their shoulders, exposing their fair, white shoulders.
Her lower body appeared as if she wasn't wearing pants, with six slender, jade-like legs lying across her body.
"I understand, Lord William!"
Yaze nodded silently in agreement. Just now, she had already thoroughly understood the layout of this new home.
Just as Yaze was carrying the three girls one by one in her arms back to their rooms.
William also looked out the open window at the courtyard below the castle.
The bright moon, like a white jade plate, hangs in the sky, casting its soft moonlight like a piece of silk draped over the earth.
On the lush green lawn sits an elegant wooden round table and four matching chairs.
Two dark-haired women sat on the lake, enjoying the shimmering surface and the aroma of their black tea.
One of them was dressed in a pure black Gothic Lolita outfit with lace trim, and appeared to be quite young, around twelve years old.
The other woman, dressed in a heavy, traditional Japanese court kimono with a twelve-layered kimono, appeared to be quite mature, likely around thirty years old—the prime age for a woman to exude allure.
"What, are you two reminiscing about the past?"
A voice that sounded almost teasing appeared as the window opened, revealing William sitting on an empty chair in the courtyard.
"Lord William!"
Just as Sentouki Aya was about to stand up and bow, William gestured for her to sit down quickly with one hand.
Nangong Natsuki merely glanced up at him, then waved her hand, and a finely crafted teacup appeared on the table in front of William.
Sentouki Aya then took over the task, picked up the teapot on the table, and poured tea for William.
"There's nothing worth remembering about our past."
"But you, you've been playing with those kids for so long, aren't you going to take a break?"
After taking a small sip of her black tea, Nangong Natsuki answered William's question.
This statement is both a fact and Nangong Natsuki's true feelings.
After all, even if their past has been embellished, even if it was their choice, there's still that feeling of being bound.
No one likes painful memories.
"Yes, Lord William, if we hadn't met you, we might still be living that miserable life!"
