Chapter 988:

Madeline had decided to take an extended vacation!

After the fall of the Black Dragon, the entire world had entered a rare period of peace. Wars between countries had been set aside, and even the conflicts between humans and monsters had nearly come to an end.

The large clusters of monsters no longer existed. Only in the deep forests and remote areas did occasional monsters still linger. Humanity no longer had to dispatch large armies to exterminate these creatures. Instead, small units were dispatched to handle these pests over time.

The two great canyons, one being the Crystal Canyon and the other the Stone Canyon.

The Crystal Canyon, a military fortress, marked the border between the Kingdom of Gran and the Desert Kingdom. There wasnt much to change there. The Stone Canyon, on the other hand, had long been transformed into a tourist city by Robb. He had built numerous cultural attractions for tourists.

Initially, the growth of the city was not remarkable. But as the railway system improved, making transportation more convenient, the advantages of a tourist city began to show. More and more nobles took the train to Stone Canyon, staying for a few days, exploring the man-made attractions and entertainment facilities.

Economically, the city flourished due to tourism. The population surged, and tax revenues soared, quickly surpassing many traditional large cities.

At that moment, Madeline sat in the mansion of Stone Canyon, holding a thick ledger. After flipping through it briefly, she tossed it to a clerk behind her, remarking, I dont want to read this complicated ledger. Im not a civil servant!

The clerk quickly replied with a smile, Of course, everyone knows you are the most powerful commander in the Kingdom of Gran.

Madeline glared, If you three dont want to lose your heads, make sure these accounts are accurate.

The clerk wiped the sweat from his forehead, thinking that although Madeline seemed clueless about finances in front of the city officials, she was quite a formidable figure. The saying that women become savvy when managing household finances was not without merit.

As he pondered this, Robb Smith emerged from an inner room, greeting Madeline with a smile and a wave, Ah, Madeline, youre on vacation again?

Seeing him, Madelines face lit up like a blooming lily, Ah, youre back? When I arrived, the officials said you had gone on a world tour with Godfather. I tried calling Godfather but couldnt reach him. I was wondering where to find you. How did you get back so suddenly?

Robb coughed awkwardly, Checking accounts, dear?

Blushing, Madeline nodded, Yes, just checking for fun.

Robb had glared irritably at the clerk. The tax records of Stone Canyon shouldnt have been casually shown to anyone. Even if they were to be shown, they should only be presented to the officials sent by the queen for tax inspection. Why were they shown to a military officer?

Of course, the clerk understood this principle. He hurriedly leaned into Robbs ear and whispered, My Lord, while we shouldnt show these accounts to a commander, surely the mistress can view them. Ive done nothing wrong.

Well, the clerk had made a good point, leaving Robb momentarily speechless.

Madeline felt right at home in Stone Canyon, treating the place as if it were her own. She effortlessly assumed the role of the lady of the house, and pulled a servant aside, directing them to get to work.

The servant, sweating profusely, acknowledged that the mansion was typically neglected. Lord Robb Smith rarely visited, as he was often traveling the world with his teacher, Godfather. Only occasionally did he teleport back to take a glance. As a result, the servants had grown lazy, enjoying their salaries without putting in much effort. But now, with the mistress present, slacking off was no longer an option. It was time for a thorough cleaning.

The servants quickly got to work, cleaning the mansion from top to bottom. Everything was spotless, pristine, and pleasing to the eye.

Madeline then ventured to the back garden, chastising the gardener who, after a quick scolding, spruced up the plants and flowers. Soon, the garden bloomed in all its glory.

Indeed, a household truly needed a mistresss touch! Just relying on a lackadaisical male protagonist wouldnt make a home truly comfortable.

Watching Madeline hustle and bustle, a smile graced Robbs face.

At that moment, Baron Nuolun emerged from a guest room. He had been vacationing in Stone Canyon and, not wanting to stay in a public inn, had chosen to reside in Robbs mansion. He had quietly witnessed all that had transpired.

Robbs disguise as Robb Smith had been aided by Baron Nuolun, making the Baron one of the first to know of Robbs true identity. He was intimately familiar with the history of the Wind Knights and the intricate relationships between the Smith and Madelines families. Thus, Baron Nuolun was someone who truly understood Robbs current situation. He whispered, Godfather, perhaps its time to come clean. Look, when I revealed the truth about his lineage to Kante, he argued with me and stormed off. But after a while, didnt he obediently come back and call me father?

Robb shrugged, Hmm, you make a valid point. Being honest and forthright is the best way to show respect to her.

Baron Nuolun whispered, You can be forthright about many things, but the identity of being the last of the Smith family lineage is something that must never be revealed. If it comes to light, not only will the Dukes side have problems, but even the loyalty of the Wind Knights to you might waver. In my opinion, since you came into this world unattached, perhaps its best to firmly establish yourself as the heir of the Smith family. After all, being the heir of the Smith family isnt such a bad thing, right?

Robb pondered on this for a moment, then sighed lightly, Youre right. I can reveal that Godfather and Robb Smith are one and the same. But as for the Smith lineage

Turning to Madeline, Robb said, Madeline, theres something I need to discuss with you.

With a gentle pull, Madeline willingly followed him to the backyard, entering a quiet room.

Baron Nuolun sighed softly, holding his wand and stood guard outside the door, ensuring that no one approached to eavesdrop.

An indeterminate amount of time passed before the door was abruptly kicked open. Madeline rushed out, her expression a peculiar mix of emotions, most likely from the overwhelming revelations.

Baron Nuolun inquired, When are you two planning to have a child?

Eh? What? Madelines face turned beet red, So soon? We arent even married yet! Wouldnt the child be illegitimate?

She then ran in circles around the garden, once, twice, thirty times.

Suddenly, she stopped, a bright smile on her face. Ah! I get it now! If Mr. Robb is indeed Godfather, it means hes even more powerful than Id imagined! I dont need to foolishly wait for him to ascend to the position of Duke anymore. I dont have to worry about overshadowing him and hurting his ego. I can marry him right now! There are no more concerns, and if we can get married, then theres no fear in having a child!

She re-entered the room shed just left, where Robb awaited her.

Robb said, Eh? I pulled you in here just to discuss what I told you earlier. What did you think I was planning?

Madeline responded, Eh? When a man pulls a woman into a secluded room, youre saying it was just to discuss that trivial matter?

She continued, You dont have other intentions?

Robb replied, I am a decent man.

Madeline pouted, Then Ill have to be the indecent one.

In no time at all, she took the initiative.

Listening in, Baron Nuolun shook his head, Ah, she truly is a Duke. Such strong mental resilience! Such a shocking secret and she adjusted so quickly. The thinking of todays youth is truly unique. I really cant understand them.
