Looking up at the starry sky again, Yuxian saw that the night sky had become even more beautiful and dazzling.

"Why aren't you resting yet, senior?"

Mash rubbed her eyes and stood at the door, looking at Yuxian as she spoke.

"I'm here, I'm going to sleep right away."

Yuxian dusted himself off and stood up.

One by one, people came to comfort him throughout the night, which made him feel quite embarrassed that he had worried them.

It's time to go to sleep. No matter what, we have to face things eventually.

You can't do without a good mental state to prepare for tomorrow.

He returned to the room and tucked the blankets around the little ones; the night was a bit chilly, and he couldn't let them catch a cold.

Lying down on the bed, Yuxian closed his eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep.

If dreams could contain anything, he hoped they would be beautiful dreams...

The next day was another beautiful day, and Yuxian and his group settled down there.

According to Nigolan, the other older Golden Fairies went out on a mission and haven't returned yet.

If all goes well, I should be back at the Fairy Warehouse in the next few days.

Yuxian was genuinely a little afraid that his arrival would trigger an unpredictable butterfly effect.

However, he knew this was just worrying unnecessarily. William hadn't come here to work as a warehouse manager yet, so everything should still be progressing normally.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that someone might cause trouble in this world; Yuxian cannot rule that out either.

In short, it's always good to be patient and wait. A few more days won't make a difference, and we'll see Keter and the others soon.

The children started playing on the playground again.

The Gretel and their arrival brought many fun things to the children.

Unlike the children who had always lived in the Fairy Warehouse, Gretel and her friends were quite knowledgeable.

The children here are fascinated by many fun and novel games.

No matter how special they are, they are still children after all, and their fun and hobbies are no different from those of ordinary children.

Yuxian secretly called Little Jeanne to his side and gave her a few instructions.

He hoped that Little Jeanne and the others could teach these children some normal knowledge and common sense.

This job was undoubtedly the most suitable for Little Jeanne, and she was very willing to accept it.

Little Jeanne patted her chest and assured Yuxian, "Leave it to me!"

Yuxian hopes to help these children change gradually through games, and hopes that they will have a normal life in the future.

Perhaps we should offer them a course or something, teach them some other knowledge. Yuxian stroked his chin, pondering.

As for whether the little ones would object, that was not within Yuxian's consideration.

"What is Master thinking?"

A voice suddenly rang out beside Yuxian.

Yuxian still deep in thought, Yu Xian subconsciously replied, "I'm thinking about how to teach these children."

"Ah! I knew Master must be thinking something bad!" Gretel exclaimed.

Her voice was loud, attracting everyone's attention. Everyone turned to look at Yuxian, leaving him momentarily at a loss.

We really can't relax for a moment; if we let our guard down even slightly, those little guys will take advantage of the situation.

His plans to start teaching now have to be put on hold for the time being.

However, there's no rush. The most important thing now is to find a way to change the fate of these children.

At the very least, we must first resolve the issue of 'Past Life Erosion' to prevent the collapse of physical functions and personality.

Swan created them using necromancy, and whether it was intentional or due to his lack of power, these children were Past Life Erosion when they reached a certain age.

Yuxian will definitely not sit idly by and ignore this; it will be inevitable that he will talk to Shi Wang about it.

Now he needs to wait for Keter and the others to return, as well as for William, the hero from before the apocalypse.

Chapter 4, Section 149: Me, Fou, the Ke Scholar

Yuxian and his group settled down at the Fairy Warehouse.

Two days later, in the afternoon, the children were playing and making noise on the playground as usual.

Just then, five girls walked over from a distance, carrying weapons on their backs that seemed disproportionate to their small stature, and their clothes were somewhat tattered.

They were the five members of Keter who had returned from a mission.

The woman with long, sea-blue hair and simple attire is Keter Nota Cernunnos.

The woman with light gray hair tied in pigtails, wearing a white long dress with a purple coat, is Nephren Luco Insania.

With her short, curly, cat-like hair in shades of rice, and a constant smile on her face, is Aetheria Maja Valkalis.

Also with blue hair, but looking very quiet and scholarly, is Landoloch Iseri Hestria.

Finally, there's Noft Carlo Disperatio, with his short pink hair and dashing air.

The children saw them from afar and immediately shouted loudly, waving their hands at them incessantly.

Unlike the children of the Fairy Warehouse, Gretel and the others focused their attention on Keter's shoulders.

"It's Fou!" Illya exclaimed immediately. She missed Fou's soft fur. Whether Fou missed it or not was another matter.

"Fou, Fu——"

Fou saw them too, and instantly jumped off Keter's shoulder and rushed forward.

The little legs bounced up and down very quickly.

Gretel was closest to them, and she opened her arms to wait for Fou to arrive.

Fou leaped past Gretel and ran behind her, leaving Gretel standing there awkwardly with her arms outstretched.

Her face instantly darkened, and she shouted decisively, "Grab it!"

The others immediately understood and blocked Fou's path.

Upon seeing this, Fou immediately jumped left and right a few times, trying to change direction and break through.

Unfortunately, all angles were blocked, and there was no way for it to pass.

"Fuff, Fou, Fou?"

(I, Casey Par**, the Beast of Calamity, the Primate Killer, the First Seat of the Twenty-Seven Ancestors of the Dead Apostle, would I be afraid of a few mere little brats like you?)

"Fou, Fou..."

(Okay, be gentle, don't ruffle my fur bald...)

Fou stood there resignedly, letting the little guys grab her and grope her, looking like she was cooperating and would do whatever they wanted.

"Stop bullying Fou!" Mash stepped in to help Fou out of the predicament.

As soon as Fou saw Mash, she broke free from the little ones' grasp, ran quickly to Mash's side, and jumped onto her shoulders in a few leaps.

It kept rubbing its fluffy little head against Mash's face.

"Fou—— "

"Alright, alright, I missed you too." Mash was a little tickled by Fou's fluffy fur, and laughed as she took it off her shoulder.

"Oh, it's Fou! Long time no see." Yuxian also came out and greeted Fou.

"Fou!"

(Foolish Chaldea Master, you'd better stay away from Mash!)

Yuxian's big eyes and Fou's small eyes met for a few seconds, and he seemed to understand what Fou was saying.

He called out to Gretel and the others, saying, "You all need to take good care of Fou, okay?"

"Okay!" The little ones ran over and took Fou from Mash's hands.

"Fu, Fu..."

(You despicable Chaldea Master, you just wait...)

Yuxian had no time to pay attention to Fou's dissatisfaction; he turned his gaze to the five girls in front of him.

Although they looked somewhat disheveled, the girls, who had been through a battle, had some dirt on them.

But Yuxian knew they were not injured.

If they still get hurt with Fou around, then Fou might as well be caught and made into soup...

"You're back! Go and get some rest!" Nigolan quickly went over to check on the group, then told them to go back and clean up so they could get some rest.

"Are you new here? Administrators? Fairies?" Upon seeing Yuxian and these unfamiliar faces, Aetheria approached him as if they were old friends and Yuxian.

Yuxian replied with a smile, "We're just staying here for a while."

"Are you Fou's friends?" Keter asked, her face showing a hint of shyness rather than the lively Aetheria.

"Hmm. Where did you meet Fou?" Yuxian nodded and asked.

"That little cat that keeps meowing 'Fou, Fou' is the one we met on the road," Aetheria interrupted Keter to answer. "As soon as it saw Keter, it clung to her and wouldn't leave no matter how we tried to shoo it away, so we had to take care of it while we were fighting."

Yuxian blinked, thinking to himself: Are you sure it's you taking care of it, and not it taking care of you?

He glanced at the somewhat shy Keter and thought to himself, "That Fou, I didn't realize she was a Chtholly scholar."

Yuxian didn't disturb them any further; the girls who had just returned needed to rest properly.

When it was time for dinner, everyone gathered together again, this time with the addition of Keter and her five friends, making it even more lively.

After being tossed and turned all afternoon, Fou was a little listless and lay motionless on Mash's shoulder.

It wasn't until Keter greeted it that it jumped onto Keter's shoulder, moved to a different spot, and then continued to lie there.

Yuxian thought to himself, "Perhaps he really is a bit cruel to Fou. Should I talk to the children and ask them to be a little more lenient with Fou?"

But I quickly dismissed that thought. How dare they give me attitude? They even want to take Mash for themselves? How dare they? Don't they know I have a bodyguard squad?

Keter and the others were telling everyone about the mission, including what they had seen and heard along the way.

These are very rare opportunities for children, who rarely have the chance to go out and learn about the outside world from their elders. It is a very happy thing for them.

"I'll take everyone out to play next time!" Yuxian suddenly said.

Wow! Really? Is it possible?

The children erupted in excitement, all turning to look at Nigolan.

In their minds, Nigolan was like their mother; they could only be accepted if they received her approval.

Nigolan was a little taken aback by Yuxian's words. She was about to object when she heard Yuxian continue, "Of course it's true, I guarantee it."

After Yuxian finished speaking, he nodded to Nigolan, indicating that she should not worry.

He said softly, "Don't worry, I know what to do. I'll handle the rest."

Nigolan's concerns were mainly about the military and the Orlando Trade Association, but these were not a problem for Yuxian at all.

Many things can be resolved with force, so they are not a problem for Yuxian.

If he were willing to swallow his pride and beg Ishtar, it wouldn't be impossible for the goddess to bring Venus down from the sky.

Chapter 5, Section 150: When you're in a bad mood, go fight a bear.

After Keter and the others returned, some time passed.
