Although everyone already knew about the relationships between the two, this announcement still came out of the blue for Sylvia. [Sylvia: Wow, is this true?] [Vice president: @Sylvia, yes, it is. Are you surprised?] Sylvia nodded her head, but knowing that the other party couldn't see her reaction, she immediately typed. [Sylvia: Yes. Congratulations to you two. I wish you a happy married life.] [Vice president: Thanks, darling ♡⁠˖⁠꒰⁠ᵕ⁠༚⁠ᵕ⁠⑅⁠꒱ Tyron and I have decided to hold our wedding at the romantic island on the waterside of the city. The wedding date is on the first Saturday of next month. Make sure to bring Asher along with you.] [Sylvia: Of course, I will. More wishes and blessings to both of you, @Tyron and @Vice President.] [Tyron: Thank you.] Sylvia looked at the money packet that was sent to her and then tapped on receive. When she saw the number of zeros on the screen, her eyes went wide at Tyron's generosity. [Jose: !!!] [Jose: Protest! I call for a protest!] Jose was muted from the group, but that didn't stop him from continuing his harassment in Tyron's private inbox until he was eventually blocked by the latter. He then went to Miley's inbox only to be ruthlessly blocked by her in seconds.“This is an injustice!” He cried. How could Sylvia get a money packet while he, who had been begging for ages, gets nothing? This is definitely favoritism. No one can deny that. [Vice president: This place is finally peaceful after that noisy brat is gone. Make sure you all come to our wedding, everyone.] [Gael: Having been bros, how could we not attend the big boss's wedding? Don't worry, even if others didn't participate, I, Gael, will be there to witness that day.] [Kai: Me too. Congratulations, vice president and president.] [Ryker: Congratulations.] [Walker: Congratulations, boss.] Everyone received a money packet one by one. [Atlas: Up hail the boss!] [Walker: The boss is the best.] [Kai: Poor Jose. If he had been patient, he would have also received a money packet.] [Walker: Ha-ha-ha, I want to see how he would react once he knew that the boss gave us a money packet. He's surely going to cough up blood from regret.] [Vice president: Alright, go to bed, everyone. We have a mission to do tomorrow. Besides, we shouldn't delay our lovely Sylvia from getting her beautiful night's sleep.] [Atlas: Good night, everyone.][Walker: Good night.] [Milo: Oh, wait. What did I miss? What's going on here?] Like a lost sheep who just found its way home, Milo was clueless as to what was going on. [Vice president: Get lost.] Miley soon went offline. [Milo: Where are you all going? What just happened here? Why is the boss distributing money packets? Where's mine?] He had just gone to take a shower; how come he suddenly missed a lot of stuff? [Walker: Sorry, brother. It's too late.] Walker also went offline. Seeing their actions, Milo couldn't help but scroll upward to the old messages to find out what had happened. When he finally saw the big announcement, his mouth went wide in shock. ___ ‘Bang, swish, roar.’ The loud sounds rang constantly inside the room. Ian quickly took a step to the side, dodging the attack of the boar-like beast. The sword in his hand then moved with astonishing speed, slashing forward. “Roar!” The beast let out a final roar before its death and then dissipated into white particles. At the mechanical voice, Ian responds, “Exit.” Soon, the surrounding scenery began to distort and then revert to the original empty room. Ian wiped away the sweat on his forehead and then lay on the ground in tiredness. His entire body was screaming in pain from the soreness coursing through his body. This was the aftermath of training nonstop for several hours. However, Ian was already used to such pain and soon sat upright after some minutes. He looked at the time and saw that it was already late in the night. Just as he was about to close off the screen, the light brain suddenly vibrated. He glanced at the notification and saw that it was a message from Ryker. [Are you there, Ian? Miley and Tyron just announced their marriage date. It's on the first Saturday of next month. Will you be coming over?] Perhaps thinking that the other party might say no, he immediately added. [Sylvia will also be attending.] Ian indeed had a reaction when he saw the last message. But when he was about to type in his response, his hand paused in midair. Next month? The national competition will commence on the first of next month. There's no way he would be able to make it to Miley's wedding. Not only that, he wouldn't be able to meet Sylvia again. Ian's lifted hand dropped when he thought about this. He was grounded and couldn't leave the palace. The security around the palace was now tight, with hidden guards at every corner to monitor his moves.Ian didn't dare think that he would be able to escape under their watch. What can he do? He truly wants to see Sylvia. [Master.] Huji, in the contract space, called out. He saw that his master had been staring at the message on the screen for a while now. Since he wasn't a mind reader, he couldn't guess what he was thinking about, but he felt that it was about Sylvia. [Master, your mother has been worried about you. Locking yourself up and training without eating isn't right. If you continue like this, you might really break down. Moreover, if you really want to see Miss Sylvia, why not ask the king for permission? He won't reject your request.] “Huji.” [Huh.] “Do you really know what it feels like to love someone?” [Ehh???] The young dragon was confused by this question. How could he know how it feels to love someone when he has never met a female dragon? Besides, it's still a dragon youngling. A child! Why is his master asking him this question? “Since you don't know, then shut up. Stop rambling inside my head.” [Ah?] Ian stood up and walked out of the room.
