At that moment, She called her father Zachariah beside the nearby rockery.
As soon as Zachariah answered the phone, he could not resist saying to her, “Took you long enough to
call me, She. How are things there? Have you returned from Skystream City?”
She nodded. “We’ve been back for several days now, and we met a lot of important people there
too.”
Zachariah cleared his throat. “None of that’s important! Let’s just get straight to the point.” Zachariah
said. He then said to her, “How are you getting along with Severin? Please don’t tell me that you didn’t
make any progress even after you were there for so long.”
His question left She feeling a wave of joy, and she answered excitedly, “I’m calling you because !
wanted to talk to you about this. Severin finally epted me, and I’ll be his woman from now on. Even
Selene calls me Mommy She now!”
“Really?” it had been days since hest heard any updates from She, and Zachariah did not put his
hopes too high on her either. After all, Severin did not seem interested even though She was
beautiful enough and had already taken the initiative to win his heart. In Zachariah’s view, She
probably was not Severin’s type.
However, his dejection immediately turned into excitement after hearing what She told him. He stood
up excitedly from his suntanning session. “I couldn’t be happier to hear that, She! He’s a good man,
and he’s a cut above everyone else. I will have nothing to worry about for the rest of my life if you marry
him. He is also a very reliable and responsible person. You’ll have a good life, and he’ll treat you
exceptionally well too!”
However, She had a smug expression as she said to her father, “That was a given from the
beginning. Dad! Wasn’t I the one who fell in love with him and told you that he was a good man? You,
on the other hand, were initially reluctant to see me with him and even persuaded me not to go for him!
Look at him now. Aside from having the four war gods as his apprentices, even the governors of
Skystream Province and Skydra Province are on good terms with him! They treat him like a brother
now!”
“You’re kidding, right? Even the two governors are treating him like a brother after that trip? This is a bit
too much if you ask me!” Zachariah was startled at first, but he soon smiled and said, “You must be so
blinded by love that you’re exaggerating the interaction between him and those big shots.”
She immediately protested. “Me? Exaggerating? You wouldn’t know because you weren’t here! If you
saw everything for yourself, you would understand that nothing I said was an exaggeration. Severin is
already a second-grade high-rank alchemist. You know what that means, don’t you? The pills he
produces are now envied by level nine warrior kings!”
Zachariah gasped. “Oh, dear lord! His talent for alchemy is off the charts! How did he even break
through to second-grade high-rank alchemist so quickly? Tsk, tsk, tsk. He’s truly incredible. There’s no
telling what he can achieve in the future. The world is his oyster!”
Having said that, Zachariah could not help but ask curiously, “Ahem, how far along in the rtionship
are you? Did you assume he epted you just because the two of you held hands, or does Selene call
you’ Mommy She’ because the two of you have already… Umm…”

She was suddenly embarrassed. “Hush, don’t talk about that, Dad! We’ve already kissed, and he
was the one who took the initiative to kiss me. That should be enough to prove it, right?”
“Haha, I’m happy to hear that!” Zachariahughed out loud. After some more thought, he said, “Well, I
only have one daughter, so I think I’ll buy a flight ticket to South Link City within the week. I’ll just move
there and buy a vi in your ce. That way, I can see my daughter and son-inw whenever I want,
haha!”
She’s eyes lit up: when she heard that. “Hehe, sure! But what about your assets, Dad? Are you going
to sell them all? Don’t forget you’re the mayor!”
Zachariah said, “It’ll be fine. I have lots of free time now, and I’ve basically handed over thepany to
your uncle. I’m already getting older, and I think it’s about time I take some time off to rx.”
“I see. Anyway, that’s all for now, Dad. Let me know when you’re on the way here. I’ll fetch you at the
airport!” She ended the call feeling happier than when she started it.
