Abruptly, Noah’s brain came up with an explanation, and he no longer felt ashamed to bring up the topic. He looked around at the faces around him knowingly and asked, “You guys… have you seen the wedding announcement already?” Only then did those nonchalant facial expressions all around him morph into collective confusion, “What announcement?” Noah’s knowing smile cracked spectacularly. Levi didn’t have the heart to watch his baby struggling any longer, so he offered a timely rescue, “There should be an announcement up about the two of us getting married.” With that cue, everyone stopped what they were doing to open up the light screens of their communicators. Noah’s expression, which had been just a wee bit short of completely crumbling, finally fully fell apart. What’s this?? No one saw the announcement, yet everyone acted as if Levi and him acting lovey-dovey was perfectly normal?? ‘What the fuck?!? With your attention to detail, how di

Levi nearly crushed the armrest of his chair, “Teagan Peyton!!” He had already warned this vulgar mutt clearly, yet he still didn’t know what was good for him! Daring to smear his baby’s name! He had thought that Peyton’s father would properly discipline him after the trade agreement between their cities fell through, but, apparently, he overestimated city lord Teagan! Levi’s blue eyes turned stormy and dark. ‘You want to go against me till the end? Very good!’ To the right, one Astar Levi was fuming, while to the left, one Noah revealed a rather peculiar expression. ‘…So the guy came to cause trouble and made one of his bodyguards check in for him?’ Feeling Levi’s growing agitation, Noah gently nudged the other’s head on his shoulder with his own soft cheek, “This guy… isn’t he a bit… too incompetent?” Levi tilted his head to both express his inner confusion and to grant his precious darling easier access to his own cheek.

Cordia daddy’s face shriveled up so much it looked like a prune. Then he forced a smile on, that looked so ugly it would have been better to just cry instead, “That’s… that’s great… that you two…” Cordia daddy swallowed hard, “…get along so well …but since that’s the case… I think it would be better if the two of you slept separately until the wedding.” Noah’s eyebrows shot up. His dad seemed to have misunderstood the relationship between Levi and him? Ai, but that wasn’t the main issue here! (っ °Д °;)っ “Dad, without my soothing–“ Noah hurried to explain, but his objection was interrupted by Cordia daddy’s firm declaration, “You are not the only Soother in Concordia. If he needs soothing, then I’ll just hire another Soother for him.” Noah’s protest abruptly died in his throat, and he suddenly felt enlightened. Oh! So there was this solution too! Why didn’t he think of it before?! Blackie, ‘Gee, I, too, wonder why… (¬‿¬) Ai, it’s a

“No wonder Asan’s mother was so uncooperative,” Noah rubbed his chin deep in thought, sitting comfortably in his exclusive, premium-quality Levi-seat. “Even if she can avoid being implicated personally, those illegal drug trials will still be causing her a massive headache for quite a while. Also…” Noah’s amber eyes squinted, much like a cat enjoying a petting, which was exactly what his fluffy head was currently receiving from his human chair, “She must have entrusted this project to her son, and now that things went south, she is protecting him in her own way.” Pleased by how well-behaved his human was today, kitty Noah rewarded the other by leaning back into his warm and comfortable chest. “Even if one of them is clean, the other certainly can’t be. Someone with high enough authority had to grant those unknown communicators access to the lab, and the only two who could have done that were the two of them. What else can she do but remain tight-lipped and threaten us with l

Fynn nodded with a triumphant smile, “And that’s exactly why they have been just hoarding bullets instead of using them this entire time! They were putting off the full execution of their plans until Swiftrain sent you to the other side!” Noah, “…” ‘I appreciate your enthusiasm, and I don’t want to rain on your parade, but… As a bro that came from the other side, I can confirm that their plan was 100% effective…’ 〒▽〒 Blackie, “Too bad it didn’t occur to them that sending goes both ways, ah! If they can send people to the other side, the other side can send people over right back!” (☞ﾟ∀ﾟ)☞ Noah, “…” (◞‸ლ) ‘I appreciate your attempts of lifting the mood, but that just sounds really creepy… like… rise-of-the-undead level of creepy…’ Fynn’s declaration still echoed in the room, yet Noah remained silent, his expression unreadable. There was nothing wrong with Fynn feeling a sense of achievement and victory due to this big breakthr
