"Have you finished reading it? This is probably the case."

After Carl read the first page of the comment section, Iger turned off the screen.

Although Carl was a little puzzled, he always felt that Iger must have something to hide from him. After all, there were still some content and comments that he hadn't had time to see clearly, but after all, these were not so important compared to the matter itself, so Karl didn't struggle anymore, but asked:

"That's what they're talking about?"

Yige nodded, then shook Carl's hand, solemnly:

"Carl, don't be angry."

"what……?"

Seeing Yige's serious eyes, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to think about it, Carl felt a little inexplicable while feeling warm in his heart.

"Why should I be angry?"

Carl tilted his head, looking puzzled.

"In the comments you just showed me, everyone just thought it was for fun. Most of the comments were not malicious, as long as they didn't cause trouble to Cromway... Marshal."

Because of Cromway's request, when Karl was at home, as a show of respect, although he still addressed him as you, he gradually got used to calling him by Cromway's first name.It's okay to call it that in a private place, but now, after all, facing outsiders, Karl still felt a little embarrassed, and paused before speaking.

"Sigh... With your temperament, I don't know whether to say yes or no."

Seeing that Karl was not as angry as he expected because of the exposure of his privacy, but instead seemed optimistic and calm, Yige sighed, but shook his head. For a moment, he didn't know whether to praise Karl's optimism or his friendliness Too naive and worried.

Although Karl is pure and kind by nature, he actually saw Ige's hesitation just now, and knew that the other party must have something to hide from him, but he also knew that even if Ige lied to him, it must be a white lie , so it didn't expose it, but made mistakes.

After all, Karl doesn't want the other party to feel worried or distressed because of his own affairs.

"Okay."

Seeing Yige folded his arms, his brows were tightly frowned, and his face showed the worry of an old father looking at his silly son, Carl was a little bit dumbfounded. He showed a bright smile to the other side, raised his chopsticks and picked up a piece of braised pork in the bowl. To the opponent's bowl.

"The braised pork in the cafeteria is delicious today. I don't think you ordered this dish. You should try it soon. It won't taste good when the food cools down."

When school was over in the evening, while waiting for the train to arrive, Karl who was standing at the station turned on his optical brain, and the virtual screen was projected in front of his eyes, emitting a faint blue light.Carl searched and found the hot search that Iger showed him during the day. After he raised his hand and opened it, he went straight to the comment area and turned it to the next few pages. What caught his eyes were indeed some unsightly words.

[Sure enough, I said before that Omega, especially omega like mermaids who have nothing but beauty except for their beauty, are sloppy, now it seems that I was right before, right? 】

[Hehe, two alphas are jealous of him in public, this omega is really not ashamed! 】

[It turns out that Marshal Cromway also has this kind of love brain, and he lost his fans and stepped on it. 】

[And I also heard that the empire originally planned to establish a trade relationship with the Kingdom of Baik this year, but now that the prince of their country has been beaten so fat by Marshal Kerenway, I don’t think it’s just a good relationship, it’s estimated that the two From now on, the countries will turn against each other, and even draw their swords against each other, right? 】

……

When he saw the last comment, Carl's fingers that were turning the page froze, and his fingertips turned slightly white due to the stagnation and force.

After all, he had already been reborn once, so although Karl still felt a little sad in his heart when facing these rumors, it was not to the point of being completely unacceptable. After all, he already knew that he was not a currency star coin, and it was impossible to Be liked by all.

But when he thought that he might have brought trouble and distress to Cromway this time, Carl felt a ripple of anxiety and guilt in his heart.

"came back."

"Um……"

Returning to the Marshal's Mansion, he heard a familiar deep voice, and the warm atmosphere of home rushed over his face. The depressed mood that was disturbed by the comments earlier became much lighter. Karl nodded, but his eyes stopped on an extra gift on the coffee table on the box.

"This is……?"

Looking at the extra gift boxes out of thin air, Karl was a little at a loss.

The gift box is packaged with embossed and dark patterns. It is expensive just by looking at the appearance, and there is a beautiful ribbon on it, which is Carl's favorite light blue. The whole gift box is exquisitely packaged and shiny. It is pleasing to the eyes and the eyes, and can feel the heart of the recipient.

After being dazed in place for a while, Karl turned his gaze to Cromway, who had already stood up from the sofa and walked to Karl's side. Frost cedar.

"...Is this for me?"

Carl still couldn't believe it. He looked up at the man's sharp jawline. Cromway nodded, and the faint aroma of wine wrapped Carl's body like a gentle wind.

"of course."

"……Thank you."

Karl quickly thanked him, but Cromway raised his eyebrows.

"Thank you before you take it apart and see what it is?"

"Then, I'll take it apart."

Under Cromway's gentle eyes, Carl took a breath, then stepped forward and gently pulled the light blue ribbon.As the ribbons were untied one by one, the gift box was gradually pushed aside, revealing the items inside——

There was a cake in the gift box. Although the cake was not big, the workmanship was extremely exquisite. The moment it was opened, the aroma of mousse filled Carl's entire nostrils.I saw that half of the cake was sprinkled with khaki floss on the surface to make the texture of the beach, half of the cake was made of blue jelly with gelatin powder to show the waves of the sea, and small boats and starfish were made with fondant shells, and—

A blue little mermaid with blond hair and golden eyes, with a shy and cute smile on her face.

"I……"

Looking at the cake in front of him, Carl was so moved that he couldn't speak, but before he could speak, Cromway, who was standing beside him, had already spoken.

"Your Highness, happy birthday."

This was Karl's first birthday alone in a foreign land. If he hadn't received his parents' blessing early in the morning, even Karl himself would have forgotten it because of his recent busy schedule.

Even though he just received the blessings from his family through the screen, Carl already felt extremely happy and warm in his heart. However, what he didn't expect was that Cromway knew that today was his birthday, and he even prepared a birthday for himself. It was beyond Karl's expectation to receive such an exquisite gift.

After a while, Carl finally found his voice. His voice was soft and a little hoarse, but it made it look even more seductive.

"...how did you know it's my birthday?"

Carl's eyebrows drooped, and his eyelashes were like a light golden butterfly, trembling slightly in the wind, which was very pitiful.

Seeing Carl's cute look of being slightly dazed by the sudden surprise, Cromway couldn't help but smile, and gentle ripples appeared in his usually cold and even gloomy eyes.

"We are legal partners entered in the marriage system, of course I know all your basic information."

"what……"

Hearing the man's words, Karl suddenly realized as if he had just woken up from a dream.

"So that's how it is..."

Carl murmured, but the emotion in his heart did not diminish.

After all, even so, the other party still needs to query in the system to obtain his birthday, which still proves that the other party is actually paying attention to him in secret.

Cromway slowly:

"Our Langman Empire has followed the tradition of the ancient earth. We have to eat cakes and give gifts on birthdays. Because I don't know what your Atlantis customs are like, so I customized them for you according to the traditions of the empire. A cake, I hope I didn't offend you by my pretensions."

"No no no... of course no offense."

Hearing Cromway's words, Karl shook his head again and again.

"...I like the gift you gave me very much, how could it be offensive?"

Carl said, with a sincere look in his light golden eyes.

"Thank you very much for your gift and your care during this period of time."

After finishing speaking, Karl bent slightly and bowed to the man.

After the two sat down in the restaurant, Karl seemed very curious about it because he had never eaten a birthday cake before, and his golden eyes showed deep curiosity.

"What is this made of? Cream?"

Seeing that Carl was curious about the cake in front of him like a child seeing a fresh toy, Cromway inserted the candles on the tray from Little A while explaining, but he was unexpectedly patient:

"It is true that some cakes are made of cream, but the one I bought is a mousse cake."

"What are you doing?"

Seeing that Cromway put colorful and small candles on the cake, Carl blinked his beautiful eyes with a puzzled expression on his face.

"Put a candle in."

Cromway was indifferent.

"Before eating the birthday cake, candles will be inserted. Later, I will ask Xiao A to turn off the lights in the room and light the candles at the same time. When you blow out the candles, make a silent wish in your heart, and the wish you made will come true in the coming year." .”

"Is it so miraculous?"

Hearing Cromway's introduction, Carl's eyes sparkled, and he seemed excited.

"Ah."

Cromway nodded. At the same time, he had inserted all the candles and turned off the lights in the restaurant through intelligent voice control.

In the pitch-black darkness, Carl only heard the slight sound of a lighter, and several clusters of firefly-like flames sprang out in front of his eyes. The flames swayed slightly, dyeing a small piece of warm orange, like an open flame in the dark, which made people feel warm.

"You can make a wish."

When the happy birthday song on the speakers was about to finish playing, Cromway's voice came from the darkness, Carl closed his eyes obediently, and at the same time clasped his hands together, silently in his heart——

I hope that in the coming year, my parents and family will be in good health, I can revive Atlantis as soon as possible, the galaxy can expel the Zerg as soon as possible, and the γ galaxy will be free from war, and...

Carl paused, stuck on the long ending of the birthday song, and quickly made his last wish.

I hope that Marshal Cromway will be safe and happy, and at best, let myself... be by his side all the time.
