Let's start over, Your Majesty.

Chapter 155 Farewell
"Um"

While Yumilia was still asleep, she felt someone stroking her face.

He gently opened his eyes, and Caesar's blurry figure slowly overlapped in front of him.

"Caesar. Hmm. So early, what's up?"

She rubbed her eyes and noticed that only a faint glimmer of dawn was visible outside the window.

"Yumeria, I have something to tell you."

"Do you want to sleep with Yumilia? Okay."

She was still half asleep when she pulled Caesar by the shoulder, trying to drag him into the bed as well.

"Yumeria." Caesar was a little helpless, but he still managed to pull her to sleep next to Yumilia, his head pressed against her soft chest, his nose surrounded by her warm fragrance.

Yumilia hugged him contentedly, enjoying the warmth of the morning.

But after a short while, Caesar patted her back and said softly, "Yumelia, I need to leave for a while."

"Okay, be careful, and remember to come home early for dinner tonight," Yumilia said, her eyes still closed, as if she hadn't woken up yet.

"I'll probably be away for about a week."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Yumilia immediately snapped out of her daze, opened her sapphire-like eyes, and looked at him in surprise.

"A week? That's so sudden! What is Caesar going to do?"

“Remember Professor Muirner whom I told you about before? She’s going on a field expedition and has given me a spot. It’s a week-long expedition, and we’re leaving tonight. I’ve already taken leave from school,” Caesar said.

"Oh, I see. It's good to be able to go on a field trip with a knowledgeable professor, but... but a week, isn't that a bit too long?" Yumilia's eyes revealed a look of worry.

A week, that's seven days, and for the next seven days, Caesar won't be seen.
Even the longest separation in the past was only one day.

Caesar put his arm around her, patted her back, and said reassuringly, "Don't worry, I'm going out with the Dean, there won't be any danger. Besides, this is a very important learning opportunity, I can't give it up, can I?"

"That's true."

Yumilia pouted slightly.
“But, he’ll be gone for a whole week. Yumilia will be so lonely if she doesn’t see Caesar for a week.”

She lowered her head in frustration.

"Besides, Ita said yesterday that she was going on a long trip, and since neither of you are here, I'll be all alone."

"I'll bring back beautiful flower specimens, and I'll make it up to you when I get back, okay?"

Caesar gently kissed her pouty cheek.
“Alright then,” Yumilia said, cupping his face in her small hands.

"It'll be a week since we last saw each other, so Yumilia should have a good look at you."

"Yes, yes," Caesar said helplessly, pulling Yumilia closer into his arms with a little more force, burying his head in her small chest.

Before the conflict began, he was still temporarily indulging in the comforting warmth of his cozy bed.

Back in the room, just as I was about to pack my things, Ita knocked on the door and came in.

“Caesar, I’m about to leave,” she said as she walked over.

Ita had already mentioned last night that she would be going on a long trip today, supposedly to handle work matters, but Caesar knew what she was going to do. He simply nodded slightly and said, "Okay, take care on your journey."

Ita was silent for a moment, then stepped forward, came to him, reached under his waist, hugged him, and pressed her face against Caesar's chest.

"We've been together these past few days, and suddenly we have to part ways again. I'm suddenly a little reluctant to leave," Ita murmured softly.

“You’re a mature head of the family now, why are you still acting like a child?” Caesar put one arm around her and stroked her head with the other.

"The head of the family has such a tiring job, at least let me be able to act cute in front of Caesar and Yumilia a little more," Ita whispered against his chest.

Caesar smiled helplessly. This unknown side of Frederick the Dragon was perhaps only known to his family.

Stroking Ita's face, he whispered:

"Sweetie, work hard, I'll wait for you to come back."

"Um"

Ita looked up and smiled sweetly at him.
"Caesar, after I get back this time, let's find a chance to go out and have some fun together? Just the two of us, is that alright?"

“Of course,” Caesar patted her head, “wherever you want to go, I will go with you.”

After seeing Ita off, he began packing his things and finally left the mansion with Yumilia seeing him off.

His first stop was the academy, where he took Muyue away.

However, if the Academy's Holy Sword of Courage were to disappear from the Holy Sword Tower for a whole week, it would certainly arouse suspicion. He could only make a replica first and temporarily place it there to deal with the situation after Twilight Moon left.

Anyway, not many people dare to come to the Tower of Holy Sword now, and even if they do, they can't climb up. No one will find out that it's not the real Holy Sword.

Twilight Moon, who was brought out by Caesar, was very happy and excited because she would be spending the next week with her master.

Caesar used the excuse of accompanying Muirna to investigate to tell Yumilia that Muirna would also be going to the Morgans region soon to deal with the harm caused by the contained object, so even if she went to the Institute of Ecology to inquire, she would get a corresponding answer.

Although I considered other excuses, I felt none of them would be as acceptable to her as this one.

He didn't want Yumilia to worry about him anymore.

The reason he gave for leave to the school was similar. He used his relationship with Muirna, since the school did know that this student was cooperating with Muirna on research and had obtained access passes to the Institute of Ecology. As long as the seal was forged, such student leave requests would not be reported to the school's higher-ups. They would just be approved by the grade office if there were no problems. Naturally, the school would not know whether the Institute of Ecology actually had some research project that required his participation.

In addition, all aspects of the operation have been completed, and Payton and Greenworth are carrying out their operations according to their plans.

Now it is necessary for him, as "His Majesty the Emperor's favorite," to be present.

Although he said he would send people to help, in reality, the only person he could actually mobilize was himself.

Haha, every time it's the emperor personally leading the expedition.

Thinking of this, Caesar couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Just then, the train whistle sounded, and the train, billowing white steam, stopped in front of the platform.

The journey from the capital to the Morgans region takes two days and one night, and including the travel time to and from there and the time to make plans, it takes less than a week.

If all goes well.

Now, alone with his furry swordsman, he embarks on a journey to Morgans, which gives him a feeling of an old-fashioned, boyish adventure story.
