Original God, I am the only designated Red King God Envoy of Xumi

Nashida went to the Jingshan Palace, and Amber returned to the office to summarize and record the recent events, and to deal with today's paperwork. This kept Amber busy until nearly midnight, after which she broke away and set out on her way home.

When they entered the bedroom, Nashida was already lying on the bed and asleep. Amber didn't intend to disturb her. After quickly washing up, she also lay back on the bed. Due to the fatigue accumulated during the day, Amber fell asleep surprisingly quickly this time. After falling asleep, the not unfamiliar feeling enveloped her again.

It was a dream, Amber was sure that she was pulled into a dream. She opened her eyes and looked around. What caught her eye were strange plants and strange houses. Amber recognized them. The plant was called Vipaia, and the spherical houses that looked low to humans were the favorite residences of the Lannaras.

Amber was a little confused for a moment. Who had dragged her into this dream and why? If Amber was not mistaken, this was the Huanalana in her dream, where the Lannaras usually lived.

When Amber was confused, a series of beeping sounds were heard. It was the footsteps of Lannaro. A Lannaro, who was very familiar to Amber, approached. When Amber discovered it, it also discovered Amber.

"It's Nala Amber! She's finally here!" Rangundi jumped up happily. He quickly walked over to Amber and held her hand. "The Grass King and the other Lanaros have been waiting for a long time. Nala Amber is almost late!"

"Late? Nashida? Waiting for me?" Amber was a little confused for a moment, but since it was Nashida's invitation, there should be no problem. So Amber obediently followed Langondi, thinking about what the possibilities would be.

She didn't remember any agreement with Nashida that could be related to the present, so it must have been Nashida's own decision, but why did she go to so much trouble?

Amber was thinking about this question on the road of less than a hundred meters. This continued until Langondi took Amber up a gentle slope. When she saw the pool surrounded by a big tree below, Amber understood everything.

There were many houses along the way, but Amber didn't see even a single Lannaroo in them. They all gathered around the pool, standing next to Nashida, standing on the lotus leaves, or standing on the shore. Some of the more naughty Lannaroos even climbed up the trees.

They each held a white flower in their hands, which meant "blessing" to Lannaro. As for the target of this blessing, it was naturally Nashida standing in the center, and Amber whom Nashida was waiting for.

The Nacida in the dream is also very different from the Nacida in reality. The Nacida in reality is very young and looks like a child, but her temperament is more special.

But the Nashida that appeared in the dream at this time looked completely like an adult. Her height was the same as Amber's, her elf-like pointed ears were narrower and longer, and her body was much more mature - just like the Great Tree King that Amber had dreamed of.

"I've been imagining what I'll look like when I grow up. After all... today is a special day." Nashida smiled softly. She tapped the water lightly with her bare feet and walked slowly forward, approaching Amber as if she were walking on the ground. "How does it feel?"

"Hmm...it's a very novel feeling." Amber couldn't help but smile. Under the gaze of the Lannaros, Amber slowly walked to the shore. "It's just a birthday, is it necessary to make such a big fuss?"

"Amber..." Nashida burst out laughing at Amber's words. Her laughter was as clear as a silver bell and a flowing spring. "Do you still think this is just a birthday celebration for you?"

"...What else?" Facing Nashida, who closed one eye and tilted her head slightly, looking a little playful, Amber hesitated in her words. If it wasn't a birthday, what else could it be?

Seeing this, Nashida said nothing. She just smiled and shook her head, took Amber's hand, and brought Amber to the small platform built by the roots of the big tree.

At the same time, the Lannaros came over, stood on the lotus leaves and formed a circle, gently waving the white flowers in their hands, and sang a soothing song in unison.

Nashida slowly leaned over and opened her clenched palms, revealing two rings in her palms. The rings were made of dense green branches and had a four-leaf mark on them. Nashida took Amber's right hand and pretended to put one of them on Amber's ring finger.

"——!" It was not until then that Amber realized what was going on. She stood there in a daze for a moment. When she came to her senses, the ring had already been put on her finger. Amber stretched her hand in front of her eyes, looking at it over and over again, and was a little dazed for a moment.

"I have thought about today for a long time and asked many people what a wedding is. Amber and I are already partners, but the only thing missing is this 'ceremony'." Nashida's words were soft, like a breeze on her face. She leaned towards Amber and slowly put her arms around her waist.

"In the end, I didn't want to invite many people to witness it, nor did I want to arrange a grand ceremony. I hoped that our ceremony could be smaller, preferably a 'secret' that belonged to just the two of us."

Nashida tapped the corner of her lips with her finger and whispered her thoughts. If there was one thing about Nashida that remained unchanged, it was her fascination with "secrets", and Amber knew this very well.

"Will Amber think it's too small? If Amber wants, we can have a more formal one some other time." Nashida asked Amber about her opinion. "Originally, I thought about having something more formal, but—"

"It's already huge." Amber's fingers gently pressed against Nashida's lips, stopping her from saying anything else. "Witnesses of this are the forest, the starry sky, the earth, and even your beloved Lannarro."

"More importantly, I have you and me." Amber smiled in response to the joy welling up in her heart. "That's enough, isn't it?"

Nashida stopped talking after hearing this. Her free hand gently hugged Amber's neck. Amber closed her eyes when she saw this. Frankly speaking, it felt very novel to kiss Nashida, who was the same height as her.

After the kiss ended, Nashida moved even closer to Amber. She held Amber's shoulders with one hand and passed the other hand through the bend of Amber's legs. This way of holding Amber startled her. "There's still a lot of time before I wake up from this dream. After hearing about my plan, Lanaro and the others volunteered to prepare a show for us. Why don't we go and see it together?"

"Ha..." Amber chuckled helplessly. She hugged Nashida's neck with both hands to keep her body stable. "—With pleasure."

Chapter 143: Letter and the Past

The Lannaros were very secretive when preparing for the show. Even Lannaro, who usually had the biggest mouth, didn't reveal a single word. Therefore, Nashida had no idea what kind of show she would see.

But both of them had some guesses in their minds, probably a stage play similar to a fairy tale, and what was finally presented before their eyes was indeed so. This stage play, performed entirely by Lanaro, was full of Lanaro's imagination. If they could accept these imaginations, it would be an interesting performance.

The closer people get to this time, the more likely they are to reminisce about the past. Amber has a bigger heart and is more engaged in enjoying the stage play. In contrast, Nashida's attention is not so focused, and most of it is on Amber.

She looked at Amber's profile intently, her brain uncontrollably recalling the past scenes. Amber was smiling at this time. The stage play was an adapted story of Amber rescuing Nashida from the Jingshan Palace. Nashida did not explain what happened to Lannaro, so the play adapted by Lannaro was completely contrary to the real situation.

But the play itself is still interesting, especially the Lannaros' speaking habits themselves have some comedic effects. In short, Amber does not take such things seriously, so it is very enjoyable to watch.

"Badnara has imprisoned the King of Grass! Who can save the King of Grass!" Lannaro, who plays the role of the guide in the play, waved his hands vigorously. He wore a tall hat. There seemed to be a rumor among Lannaros that the higher the hat, the wiser he was. This was arranged into the drama.

"I'll do it!" Lanna, who played Amber, came on stage. Perhaps it was to match the color of Amber's most attractive eyes, but Lanna, who played Amber, had amber skin. He wore a small model sword and a wreath woven from Vipāla and Kalpaṇa on his head.

The one wearing the wreath is the absolute protagonist - this is the consensus of the Lannaros. For them, a group of spirits of plants and dreams, flowers are the embodiment of all beauty, and the wreath woven with flowers is naturally the most precious symbol.

Seeing the protagonist based on herself appear on the stage, Amber felt even happier. She was curious about what would happen next when she felt her arm being pulled.

Amber looked over with a little confusion, and saw Nashida smiling gently. She was holding a wreath in her hands, which was woven from pure white Patisaran and had extraordinary meaning to the God of Grass.

The many Lannaros who were also sitting in the audience below all turned their eyes to the two of them, and even the performance on the stage stopped for them.

"...I really can't do anything about you." Amber shook her head helplessly. Nashida was acting out whatever she wanted today, just like now, the drama was halfway through when she suddenly took out a wreath.

But Amber still obediently lowered her head slightly, and Nashida gently put the wreath on Amber. The pure white flowers were placed on her inky hair. The two opposite colors complemented each other at this time.

The two looked at each other for a moment, unable to resist the urge to laugh. Nashida held Amber's left hand, clasping their fingers together. Seeing that the two were ready to continue watching the drama, the performance on the stage continued.

The Lannaros probably don't really understand the differences between various human emotions, so their plays have a logic as pure as childhood fantasies, like the prince saving the princess, and the two living happily together. After Lannaro, who played Amber, defeated Azar, the two people who should have met for the first time in the play went straight together.

In fact, the opposite is true. If Nashida were asked to answer, she would say that the opportunity for the change in their relationship was "companionship". It was actually not so ups and downs, nor dramatic. It was only like a long stream of water that gradually influenced them and eventually led to a natural ending.

The two of them don't care much about weddings like today's. Compared with these ceremonies, they care more about the feelings between each other. The original reason for concluding such a "contract" is just to hope that such companionship can continue forever. This is a kind of "expectation."

Just as the two of them had no major emotional ups and downs, this dream wedding also came to a smooth end. Under the witness of the forest, starry sky, earth and Lanaros, Amber and Nashida swore to each other, making up for the last missing thing.

……

"Yi, it's been a while since we last met. I wonder how you've been doing. When the unusual situation occurred in the Thousand Valleys Sand Land, I wanted to stop by and see you, but I didn't expect the urgency of the situation to be beyond my imagination. I had to prepare a report as soon as it was resolved, so I put it on hold."

"Who would have thought that this would be shelved for three or four months, and it seems that it will be shelved for a while longer."

In the central office of Chinanian City-State, during her free time at noon, Yi held an opened letter in her hand and read the words on it.

Nearly four months have passed since the abnormality occurred in Qianhe Desert. One month after the abnormality ended, the environmental improvement work was officially restarted. It had been suspended at first because of the abnormal activity of Warcraft. Now that the situation is under control, it is natural to continue.

Originally, the area to the north of Qianhe Desert was his biggest headache. Only the Tanit clan lived in Qianhe Desert, and it was different from Liezhu Desert. Liezhu Desert was close to the wind erosion area, so the supply line was very mature. Therefore, even if the windbreaks were planted farther and farther away, there was no need to worry about the supply not being able to keep up. But this was not the case in Qianhe Desert.

But there is no need to worry about this problem now. The mutation actually brought great benefits in the end. The rainforest created by Apep has completely improved the environment. There is no need to invest manpower in the Thousand Valleys Desert, which saves a lot of costs.

"If Jade were here, she'd probably ask what kind of busy schedule couldn't spare her aunt the time to go back and visit—ah, now that I think about it, time flies. Jade was just such a little girl at the beginning, and now she's a big, energetic girl. In another year, her coming-of-age ceremony will be here."

"Oops, I've let myself get carried away. I've been having some inconvenience with activities lately, so I'm tempted to reminisce about the past. Remember to give Abdul my regards and tell him to take care of his health. His generation of Sand People inevitably suffered some hidden scars in their youth. If they don't take care of it in their old age, they might not live to see the day when my children call him Granduncle."

"...Wait, child?" Yi repeatedly confirmed those words. When she first saw that Amber had difficulty moving, she thought she was injured, but now it seems... ?

But she didn't remember Amber saying she had a boyfriend? And wasn't Amber... a bitch?

"Are you scared? Actually, we two don't like to make a big fuss, and we've been quite busy lately, so we didn't inform many people. Anyway, I'm officially announcing this to you all: I'm getting married to Buyel, the god of Xumi."

"..." No words could describe Yi's surprise at this moment. Her pupils were trembling, and it took her a while to recover. As for the question of why female gods could give birth to offspring with female humans, Yi didn't care much about it.

In her opinion, the other party is a god, so it’s not surprising that he can do such a thing, right?

"Being pregnant is really not an easy job. I didn't feel anything at first, but now I feel that I have less energy than before. What used to take a day to finish now takes me three days. And if I don't sleep for at least ten hours a day, I just can't muster the energy."

"But my assistant has gradually mastered the skills, and with Nashida, my partner, helping out, it's become much easier than before."

"As for our love history... Xiaokui will probably be very interested, but if I were to write about it, even if I added two more pages, it wouldn't fit. Plus, my energy doesn't allow me to do so, so I'll give up. Besides, I'd be a little embarrassed to tell you all about this."

"...Huh." Yi looked at the words and took a deep breath. She temporarily put down the letter in her hand and looked out the window.

Outside the window is a statue of the Sand People. In the past, when people mentioned the Sand People, the first image that came to mind was often a strong man holding a sharp knife. These have changed now, and the statue will naturally not be shaped according to the original image. What is finally presented here is the image of working people holding shovels.

Across the statue is the expanded commercial street, with residential areas currently under construction on both sides. As for the area near the central office where Yi is located, there are warehouses, schools, hospitals and other facilities.

Amber is now thirty-two years old. Yi is two years older than Amber and is already thirty-four years old. Compared to the beginning, more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. Looking at the words in the letter in her hand, Yi felt some complicated emotions in her heart.

Should this feeling be described as relief? Yi didn't know; she had watched Amber reach this point, but if she counted on her fingers, calculating how many times Amber had shown herself to be more like an ordinary person, as in the letter, the final result would be no more than two hands.

After actually taking over Amber's job, Yi truly realized the burden Amber had originally shouldered. This rule of doing things that required looking ahead and behind but not being indecisive brought about tremendous pressure. Compared to the original Amber, the one Yi took over was even a stable consortium. She had thought many times about what kind of pressure Amber had been under at the time?

Perhaps that's why, after seeing the Sand People truly moving towards independence from the gods, Amber was so eager to withdraw. But now she's back to the same troublesome position as her original divine messenger, the Great Sage of the Ordovician Council. I wonder if people like her are destined to be unable to escape this.

Amber is a person who yearns for freedom. Yi is very clear about this. Although the leader style that Amber usually displays always makes people subconsciously ignore all this, Yi knows that Amber still has a yearning for freedom in her heart.

The so-called freedom means not being bound, doing whatever I want like the wind, not being forced, and just doing what I want. But when I think back on the past ten years of Amber's life, I rarely have such moments.

I don’t know if suppressing the pursuit and yearning for freedom for the sake of the desert and the future of Mount Sumeru can be considered a sacrifice.

As an old friend of Amber, Yi felt happy from the bottom of her heart when she saw that Amber could find some happiness that she wanted. She was silent for a moment, withdrew her gaze, and took some time to offer blessings to Amber in her heart.

"Let's get back to the present. The Adeptus Apostolicus has finally recovered from the turmoil. The last sage to fill the vacant position has been chosen, and Teyvat is becoming increasingly peaceful. I wonder if it's because of that blond traveler."

"Anyway, many friends from abroad have chosen to visit Xumi. This reminds me of the time when I was in the desert and was reported by the Steambird News."

"Huh..." After reading this, Yi Shaoluo couldn't help laughing. As Amber spoke, she remembered those days. During that time, for Amber, a living legend, many legendary adventurers and even other beings chose to visit the Chi Nian clan and Amber when they passed by. Although most of them were polite and did not disturb Amber, it would be a lie to say that they would not be affected.

"Xumeru City needs an event to liven up the atmosphere and pull it out of its past turmoil. Nashida and I discussed it and ultimately decided to hold the Ordinance Festival. It's scheduled for around Labor Day and will probably last three days."

"The six schools will each set up their own booths. This will also be an opportunity for them to promote their own schools. The six schools will also send six representatives to compete in a three-day competition, adding some excitement to the festival."

"I think this is an opportunity to promote the Ordinance to outsiders, and also to allow ordinary people in Xumi to access the knowledge of the various schools within the Ordinance. In the past, the Ordinance was like a tower built around a sea of ​​books, which wasn't ideal. Now, this approach kills two birds with one stone."

"I feel a little sorry to have written this. If you were all by my side, I would be able to listen to your opinions. The Order House is much larger than the Chi Nian Clan and has many more people, but it lacks the human touch."

"Thinking about it this way, the Chi Nian clan is still better."

"Oh, I accidentally started mumbling. In the past, the Azar faction had too much influence on the Ordos and even Xumi City, resulting in this academic city lacking in human touch. But now that I'm in power, things will naturally get better."

"Let's get back to the point. I hope to see some old friends from the desert by then—I'm not referring to you, since you're so busy. I'll bring the children back to see you later. I mean Dixia, Xiaokui, and Jade. If they're free, please come and see me."

"...Oh, I always feel like this statement makes me look like an old woman who's longing for her children to come home."

"But she's just an old woman, I don't mind that. I'll stop writing here. I wish you good health and hope that your life can continue to be so peaceful."

"Huh..." Yi took in the last word on the letter. When she read this, the corners of her mouth unconsciously rose.

She put the letter away, stood up from her chair, walked to the window, and looked towards the Ordination Hall.

"I wish you happiness too, Amber."

Chapter 144: Alice's Visit

"Is it really okay?" In the office of the Great Sage in the House of Commands, Nashida leaned on the desk, looking at the man who still insisted on sitting at the desk to handle his work.

Nashida's appearance had changed a lot at this time. In a nutshell, the image in her previous dream also appeared in reality. Nashida's explanation for this was that she felt it would be more convenient this way - and in fact it was indeed much more convenient.

"Alright...it's no problem to handle the minimum workload. Besides, isn't Lena still helping me?" Amber explained to Nashida, looking at the arrangements for the upcoming festival. "Besides, if you really felt sorry for me, you should have discussed it with me before making any plans. You kept silent like this...I was in a panic for a long time after I found out I was going to be a mother."

"This question..." Nashida turned her face away in a panic. She felt that she had done something wrong. Why did she do such a thing on impulse?

"I understand your desire to have a child, but you just went through a busy period not long ago. As a god of Xumi, you can't be so radical. It is absolutely not advisable to leave no room for error like this." Amber shook her head helplessly and started preaching. Nashida nodded repeatedly to Amber's preaching. At this time, she didn't have the courage to refute Amber.

"If something urgent happens suddenly and I don't have enough energy to deal with it..." Before Amber finished speaking, the sound of the office door being pushed open was heard.

"Amber, I'm here to see you! Oh, there are rumors everywhere in Xumi City that the King of Grass and his sage have given birth to offspring. You really made a big fuss." The visitor was a tall, mature woman in a fiery red outfit with elf-like features. She was so energetic despite her age. Needless to say, it was Alice.

Alice had said at the tea party that she would come to see Amber, and B had even come. As for Rhinedot and N, they were really busy, so they planned to prepare gifts for Amber's baby in advance.

"...It's not surprising that B would come, but you actually had the nerve to come." Seeing Alice's arrival, Amber was furious for a moment. "I just found out that you were the one who made that potion. Tell me! How did you trick Nashida?"

"Don't blame me—" Facing Amber's soft questioning, Alice raised her hands in surrender and closed the door with her foot. "It was me who suggested it in the beginning, which is true, but I didn't do anything to induce her, which means..."

"...In other words, I was the one who finally agreed." Nashida took over the conversation. She covered her face with her hands and turned away. The embarrassment was so thick that it almost turned into substance.

"...Alas." Amber finally didn't say anything else. What else could she say? After all, she was her wife, and she herself didn't have much intention of blaming her.

"I was just mentioning it then. I was planning to give it to you as a gift, but who knew..." Alice spread her hands and slowly walked to the desk. "Who knew the Grass King would just take it? And since I'd already made that suggestion, I naturally didn't have the nerve to ask for it back."

"If you say so, then so be it." Amber closed her eyes and rolled her eyes. At first glance, there seemed to be nothing wrong with Alice's words, as she was clearing herself of all charges. But as a member of the Witch Society, how could Amber not know Alice's temper?

Would she be embarrassed to go back? Amber would rather believe that B could control her curiosity! It was definitely Alice who saw it and thought it would be interesting, so she let Narcida go ahead with it.

"Hey, don't be so stern—" Alice quickly came to Amber's side, walked around her half a circle, and observed her body. "Well, the fetus is very healthy. If I were to estimate, the delivery date will be another five months and twelve days."

"There's a margin of error - probably one to three days."

"I didn't know you knew this." Amber put down the documents in her hand and turned the chair slightly to face Alice, while Nashida brought a new chair for Alice to sit on.

"You've lived long enough to understand a little bit about everything." Alice thanked Nashida, gathered her skirt, and sat down on a chair. "Then I'll give you some dietary recipes to help you stay healthy during pregnancy. Just choose one each morning and evening based on your condition."

Amber did not refuse this suggestion, and Nashida even took out her notes directly. She seemed to care more about this than Amber.

"...That's about it. Not long after J said goodbye to us and chose to return to her hometown to spend the rest of her life with her beloved, I spent a little effort to compile this. But she didn't use it in the end, and you did instead." Alice waved her fingers and explained the reason to herself.

Amber did not respond to Alice immediately. She nodded to Lena who was holding the tea set to express her gratitude. Lena nodded slightly in response and poured tea for the people present.

"Come to think of it, since you finally squeezed out some time, why don't you go spend some time with Kelly? You and your daughter haven't seen each other for a while, right?" Amber picked up the teacup and drank some to moisten her throat. She no longer had the habit of testing the temperature of the tea brewed by Lena.

"How could I forget Klee? I brought Klee with me this time. Oh, and Amber followed me after hearing I was coming to Xumi. She brought Klee to your house first. I guess she's playing with your two little girls right now."

Amber nodded when she heard that. She was not worried about Klee at all, as she was a sensible child.
