"Oh, really? I'm grateful for your compliment… And I like your styles too." Sia Vergil replied and added, glancing at Kuppo. "And you're completely the opposite of this old man."
And then she flung away his hands and said, "I'm sorry, but your hands are too warm and are making me feel strange as well." Sia said naively.
Bobby furrowed his brow and thought, 'Strange! What's going on here? And why's a grown-ass lady like her acting like a little girl? Is she playing with me?' And a series of questions popped up in his mind.'
"Stop over-analyzing it; I think you hit the jackpot instead…. I know why she's acting like that. She is practicing the Heavenly Heather Sleeping technique!" Cynthia's sweet voice echoed in his head.
"Heavenly Heather Sleeping technique?!" Bobby repeated with a big question mark.
"It's a legendary Angelic Grace Energy cultivation technique. It's in rank 2 of the most powerful cultivation techniques. Only female angels who had a special bloodline can only cultivate it. Which means she's a unique person among the angels and I can't believe all those geezers send her to this backwater exoplanet." Cynthia responded, explaining in excitement. "Alright, I'll come to the point about her current state. Her real consciousness is currently in silent slumber, cultivating that technique. And her current consciousness is like a bonus conscience that was born out of her main consciousness the very day she cultivated that technique. And judging by her current level of consciousness, she seemed to be around 4 years old, meaning she began cultivating the technique 4 years before." Then she remained silent once again.
Hearing that, Bobby heaved a sigh of relief.
"Alright, Agent Loki Bradworth, that's a token of you being the pioneer of a new noble family. And the capitals required for constructing your city and managing it for a year are all in it. You need to use it wisely. And, one more thing, there are only two months left for the Chief Selection Trial. So, use that time wisely, clear this trial, and fill in this seat, which has been left empty for centuries." Vice-Chancellor Kuppo said and then he continued, "And stop hitting on Miss Sia."
In his last statement, he sounded both authoritative and worried.
After hearing Cynthia's story about Sia's condition, Bobby completely understood him. And he thought, 'So, this guy seems to know her identity too.'
Vice-Chancellor Kuppo turned her attention and asked in his softest tone with a friendly smile plastered on his face: "Your highness, my grace, did you need anything from me?"
Bobby wondered in his head, 'Woah, this straight shooter also knows how to fawn over someone!'
"Uncle Kuppo, those nine are so bossy today and acted as though they were in charge of everything. They share nothing with me all this time. I have been holding everything inside all this time. If not for Sister Claire's insisting repeatedly on me to never make rash decisions and kill someone on my own. Then I would have snapped their little heads as I did to my dolls." Sia Vergil said innocently.
Bobby thought, 'Sister Claire, is she someone who came along with her here?'
"No, you dummy! It must be the real consciousness. Even though the real consciousness is slumbering. It'll react the moment this little subsidiary's consciousness has a sudden burst of emotions. So, better be careful too." Cynthia replied telepathically in his mind.
"The main consciousness even has the power to control this subsidiary consciousness?" Bobby asked telepathically in his mind.
"Hmm, you really pick up fast. Yes, the only time this childish consciousness has is during the time the main consciousness is only in a complete slumber state. For example, just like her current state." Cynthia responded briskly.
"Excellent decision, my grace! There is no need for your highness to dirty your hands on those unsatisfactory lives…. So, is that all?" Vice-Chancellor Kuppo sugar-coated his words and asked with an amiable smile.
"Oh, I like to shift my home to Agent Loki's Cantoon City and stay with him!" Sia Vergil said, finally revealing her reason for following them inside the office.
"No, that's absolutely not a good idea! Your Highness, Loki's a full-grown man and you're just a child!" Vice-Chancellor Kuppo blurted out, strongly against her demand.
"Sir Kuppo, it's okay. She's an adult woman, she can make her own decisions." Bobby said as it overjoyed him on hearing her sudden demand. He then turned and said with a smile, "Miss Sia, I'll be happy to have a beautiful lady in my city."
Vice-Chancellor Kuppo secretly said to Bobby telepathically, "Agent Loki, I'm saying this considering out of a good heart for your sake. I know you adore her. But she's not an ordinary person. Actually, I'm not a tad bit worried about her. It's you I'm more worried about…. If something bad happens, then I'll lose our next-to-be chief. For what… for a lady? So please understand and try to convince her to take back her decision."
He then looked at Sia and said, "Your Grace, I think Agent Kuppo didn't like that idea." And then he asked Bobby, "What did you say, Nobleman Loki Bradworth?"
"Nope, I never say that. Miss Sia, I like your idea very much. You're welcome to stay at my home." Bobby said briskly.
"Ugh! This brat. Don't know he's making the biggest mistake of his life." Kuppo fumed, displeasingly.
"Enough, Uncle Kuppo! It's already decided. There is no point in trying to convince me and Agent Loki…. Apparently, this isn't my idea, it's Sister Claire's!" Sia Vergil said, finally revealing the truth.
Hearing that name again made Bobby rethink in his head: 'Hmm, why is this Claire, insisted on this poor little girl with a matured bombshell body to insist on following me and living under the same roof with me?.... Whatever, I'll eventually find out the truth. But, hee-hee-hee, Claire, you're the one I really wish to make my woman, not this kid. So, when you're in control of this god-gifted body, I'm going to….' And he grinned goofily.
