"Witness my long-range throw attack!" Amid the morning dew, outside the wall of Fox Street No. 6, a girl’s full of life voice added a touch of warmth to the winter morning. Running through the streets every morning, Lily, whose job it was to deliver newspapers and mail on time, showed up as usual. Her twin ponytails were jauntily swaying with her steps, enhancing the cute appearance of the girl. Reaching a familiar place, seeing a familiar figure crouched on the wall, joy filled the little girl’s heart at the sight of her playmate. A roll of newspaper habitually flew out from her hand, accurately hitting the target’s face, "Yay, bulls-eye."

"I think you have a severe misunderstanding," Pannis sighed and retrieved the newspaper roll that hit his face, slanted his eyes to look at the nonchalant girl beneath the fence and grumbled, "your ability to tell things apart is poor. My mailbox is over there, not here. Why do you keep throwing the newspaper here?"

"Because your face seems more attractive to the newspaper, Demon Uncle," Lily waved at Pannis brightly, "Welcome back, Uncle. See you tomorrow."

"Trying to run?" Pannis raised an eyebrow, smirking, "Witness my retaliatory throw."

"Naive," Lily twisted her waist mid-run, dodging the two flying dark shadows. She reached out and caught the specks mid-air, laughing victoriously, "To a professional in the postal industry, any flying objects pose no threat, they seem stationary."

"Really?" Pannis grinned, his white teeth glinting in the morning sun, "If I were you, next time before catching a thrown object, I’d make sure to see clearly what it is."

"What?" Lily gasped, looking down hurriedly. In her left hand grasped a fluffy and soft honey breadstick, its golden brown surface being the epitome of temptation. As for the right hand? It held a small soft ball that was inexplicably expanding.

"Boom," the expanding sphere suddenly burst, filling the air with a pungent scent of pepper.

"Damn Uncle," Lily, tears streaming down her face due to the sudden attack, ran away with the bread in her hand, leaving only her roar echoing in Pannis’s ears, "Bloody Demon Uncle, you wait for it, I’ll retaliate."

"Damn brat," Pannis pouted, swinging his foot atop the metal railings, "How boring peaceful days are."

"You’ve been picking on kids again, Pannis," a sudden voice echoed from Pannis’s back, nearly making Pannis, who was feeling guilty, fall from the railing, "Be careful if Big Sister sees you, she’ll scold you."

"Lina, don’t scare me." Pannis carefully looked around Lina, not finding any danger. He then patted his chest in relief, "Heading out so early? Just the second day since you arrived."

"I’m going to check the church," Lina brushed away her silver hair and cheerfully exclaimed, "and then, hehehe, the grand plan that was planned long before is going to begin, muahahaha."

"Alright, I understand," Pannis nodded, "In short, you’re preparing to go crazy, right?"

"Bam." As expected, Pannis was knocked off the railing by a silver magic book thrown at his face by Lina. The magic book seemed to be controlled as it returned to Lina’s hand after hitting the target. Lina disdainfully wiped the book, gave an arrogant hum, and left for the front gate with light footfalls: "I suppose I won’t be back till dinner time, I’ll bring Michelle and Ansha home."

"Got it," Pannis lying on the ground weakly stretched out his hand and gave an almost dying wave, "Take care."

It was already late February. A month ago, on the fourth day after resolving the incident at the City of Innocence, the four members of the adventure team didn’t rush back to the City of Knowledge but explored the sewers of the City of Innocence. After ensuring there were no other leads, the group destroyed the teleportation array along the way and returned to Delsaren step by step. Despite Vivian’s opinion that the array system being destroyed or not wouldn’t make much difference, as the teleportation array could only transport a limited number of people, hence posing no threat to Delsaren’s defense. After discussions, everyone agreed it would be better to destroy it and avoid any trouble. As a result, the underground teleportation network set up over seventy years by the Divine Servant, the cult, was majorly damaged. Their loss was substantial.

Upon returning to Delsaren and reporting the mission’s results to the local lord, the team finally let go of all the burdens and celebrated in the bustling city. Despite lacking the luxuries of the City of Innocence, Delsaren didn’t have the unique gloominess of the City of Innocence either. People felt much happier here than during the three days spent in the City of Innocence.

After parting ways with friends from various churches with whom they had fought alongside, the adventure team members made a detour to the research institute in the Crying Cave. Or rather, at Vivian’s insistence, it had been renamed Nellie’s Adventure Team Research Institute. Catherine’s original intention was to take Annie to see where her parents were laid to rest. She worried that Annie might disappear once her inner turmoil was resolved, but Catherine still decided to follow Annie’s own wishes. Even if Annie did fade away, for her, that may also be a kind of happiness. However, when they approached the room, Annie hid in the pendant and refused to come out by any means. In the end, they had no choice but to go back with regret. As for whether the three girls who had gotten used to Annie’s existence would feel secretly pleased, no one could tell.

Hence, they roamed around for nearly a month until the end of February, which was yesterday noon. The four of them finally returned to the City of Knowledge, exhausted. After completing their mission formalities at the Guild with their last bit of strength, they finally returned to their long-lost home. As soon as they stepped in, they received an unexpected surprise.

On the day they left the City of Innocence, Passion and Indulgence mysteriously pulled the four aside to tell them that they had prepared a surprise for them. However, after a month had passed, they gradually forgot about it until they returned home and found out what the surprise from Passion and Indulgence was.

Watching Lina leave in her pajamas, Pannis was seen chomping on a straw, his hair unkempt as he lazily walked back into the mansion. Upon entering the foyer and pushing open the heavy living room door, he was greeted by two youthful voices simultaneously saying: "Good morning, Master."

"Maids" was the instant thought, and just like that, the lethargy on Pannis’s face disappeared without a trace. His eyes curved into half-moons, his mouth widened, with saliva hanging from the corner of his upturned mouth. The grass stalk in his mouth fell to the ground with a slight ’pop’. Rubbing his hands together, he approached the two maids, "Hehehe, good morning, fresh beauties."

Yes, this was the surprise from Passion and Indulgence. Just as they had seen yesterday, it took everyone aback. When the front door was opened and they saw Pansy and Mimosa dressed in black and white lace maid costumes, standing in the foyer with smiles on their faces welcoming everyone, everyone’s first reaction was to take a few steps back, step outside the door, look up and confirm whether they had gotten the wrong house.

According to Pansy and Mimosa, after relaying the message left by Passion and Indulgence, those cunning thieves and assassins claimed to have conducted detailed investigations and cautious considerations and successfully introduced the most suitable job for the two maid sisters in the outside world, which was to work as maids, something they were very good at. Although Catherine was so angry with the message that she threatened to settle the score with the scammers, everyone could see that the emotionally attached Catherine didn’t actually hate the surprise. Therefore, the two maids settled down at No. 6 on Fox Street, bringing some vitality to the deserted mansion.

"Master Pannis." Seeing Pannis approaching with a lewd expression on his face, Pansy took a few steps back in fear and said in the softest possible voice, "You...you don’t do this."

"Yes, Master Pannis." Mimosa clung closely to her sister, expressing the same kind of fearful expression and said in the same soft voice," You’d better not come closer, or we will scream for help."

"Hahaha." Pannis leaned on his waist and laughed loudly, "Go ahead, scream. It’s so early now, everyone is still sleeping, no one will come to save you. Hahaha."

"So noisy." Before the voice came, Pannis had a strong sense of impending crisis and instinctively ducked his head. An ice arrow whizzed past, just scraping his hair, "Damn it, Pannis, you interrupted my train of thought, what the hell are you screaming about?"

The two maids stepped aside in sync, revealing the table behind them. Vivian was sitting there with reddish eyes glaring at Pannis. The table was scattered with a lot of papers filled with formulas and data. It was obvious that she was troubled by some difficult problems.

"Master Vivian." The two maids, as if nothing had happened before, calmly saluted Vivian, "Breakfast is ready. Are you ready to enjoy it?"

"Thanks a lot." Vivian nodded to the maid sisters, suddenly her eyes lit up, she said to Pannis, "Oh, by the way, I think Catherine is looking for you. She’s in her room now, can you call her down?"

"Me?" Pannis pointed to his nose in confusion, "Is that appropriate?"

"No problem, she’s already up." Vivian buried her head back into a pile of formulas on the table, "You just go ahead."

"Okay." Pannis scratched his head, turned around and climbed up the stairs.

"You...just go ahead." Vivian hid her face behind a pile of papers and smirked, "Hehehe, I bet you’ll never guess what Catherine is doing now."
