    "Your highness, the warp array is ready. Demigod Baylor and his should be arriving," the aide informed Colleen that she would be at the royal warp array to receive their guest demigod Baylor and his wife.


    "Backster, I don''t know what is going on between my granddaughter and you, I want you kids to resolve it among yourself. I will not interfere, as long as it does not affect your work.


    Remember, not one royal court minister is allowed to leave unless they pass the screening of your item card ''Heart''s Mirror''," saying that Colleen hung up on Backster and flickered to the royal warp array formation to wee the demigod Baylor and his wife to the southern region.


    As Colleen flickered to the warp array, she saw the vague figure of a man and a woman solidify on the warp array, demigod Baylor and his Wife were here.


    Arriving at the southern royal pce demigod Baylor and his wife were surprised to see Colleen Heatsend personally receive them. Even though Colleen had just broken through to the demigod realm her status and authority were far greater than demigod Baylor who had stepped into the demigod realm years ago. So the couple was astonished to see the Queen of the south herself receive them at the royal warp array.


    "Wee to the south," masking her anger and resentment towards Sansa, Colleen as host was the first to greet the couple.


    "Thank you, your highness," Covering their surprise the couple thanked Colleen. As the demigods, Baylor and his wife did not need to follow royal etiquette and rather kept the greetings casual.


    "If you don''t mind me asking, what brings such a young couple as yourself here? Don''t tell me you are on your honeymoon here, I love the southern region but it is not a romantic getaway I would choose," Colleen did not bother with small talk, spoke her mind then tried to cover it with rhetorical conversation.


    The couple was puzzled by Colleen''s question but Sansa chose to answer her knowing her man was a man of little words, "No we are not here for our honeymoon, we are here to adopt our friend''s orphan son as our own."


    "Too bad you guys are not here for your honeymoon but adaptation is good too. You guys must have been close for you to adopt your friend''s orphan son," Hearing the purpose of the Baylor couple''s visit Colleen was taken aback but relieved that it had nothing to do with her starting an internal investigation into the royal court or Cole.


    "We were childhood friends but due to some unfortunate circumstance, she had to move here with her husband. We haven''t been in touch with each other for two decades now but recently we received news that she and her husband died in a dungeon raid leaving behind their orphan child. So we decided to step up and take care of her only child as best friends. This is the least we could do considering she was such a good friend to both of us, God bless her soul," Sansa passionately spoke, exining the situation to Colleen in detail.


    ''Oh, she is good,'' Hearing Sansa''s story, Colleen remembered that the mother of the kid who invented the silver milk powder was Sansa and demigod Baylor''s friend. If she recalls correctly Sansa had sent nearly 3 dozen card emperors to kill the boy. Colleen was finding it hard to believe that the woman who wanted to kill the boy so badly would want to adopt him, what was she nning? Was she nning to get close to the boy and use her origin card on him and make him her puppet?


    Whatever she was up to, clearly she was not adopting the boy out of the goodness of her heart nor for her best friend. ording to Clown Mask, she was the mastermind behind the boy''s parents'' death. Seeing how devious and conniving Sansa was firsthand, Colleen barely managed to keep her act together and not tip off the enemy as it was hard for her to control her urge to punch Sansa to death, "Wow, you are good."


    "Excuse me?"


    "I mean you are a good friend," Colleen lied, barely managing to cover her tracks.


    "Your highness, we are doing just what anybody else in our ce would do," Sansa said, trying to be humble but it did note off as such.


    "You''re being humble," Colleen said barely managing to keep her face straight, and asked, "By chance does your friend happen to live in the blossom district''s third-rate city, Sky blossom city?"


    "Yes," demigod Baylor answered before Sansa could. Though he was not interested in the small talk he gained interest in it hearing Colleen mention the city Ellen used to live in.


    "The kid you two are nning to adopt, by chance does he happen to be named Dalton Wyatt? His mother, Ellen Wyatt seems to be rted to the central capital''s Duskborn family," Colleen slowly steered the conversation to make it clear to Sansa and demigod Baylor that the kid they were interested in was under the radar of the southern royal family.


    Listening to Colleen mention the boy''s name, both Sansa and demigod Baylor barely maintained their calm but not for the same reason as the other.


    Demigod Baylor was excited because he would not have to waste time finding the boy.


    While Sansa was excited because she thought her husband was about to learn the news of his nemesis''s orphan''s death. This will save them some time and they could return to the central capital with less drama.


    "Yes, your highness, that''s him. We are here to adopt him," Demigod Baylor answered excitedly.


    "If it''s him, this is going to be difficult," Colleen wrecked her brain to think of reasons to stop demigod Baylor from adopting the kid. Her reason for doing so could not be more apparent. Right now the boy was a gooseying a golden egg for the southern royal family, how could they hand him over to someone else just because they asked?


    "..." Hearing Colleen tell demigod Baylor that it was going to be difficult for them to adopt the boy, Sansa almost wet herself out of the suspense of the big reveal.
