His Excellency has arrived! Bow!

However, Frozen Milk had no chance to recover his relationship with Prota as they finally arrived in the town.

"Wow," Glimpse Water was impressed. So were the other two.

Against expectations the town looked like a modern normal town one would expect anywhere, the only difference was it was built on trees, seemingly floating in the air. Streets connected from tree to tree and people even rode bicycles to traverse.

"How is this possible?" even the indifferent face of the icy beauty was melted into disbelief.

This ladies and gentlemen, Frozen Milk secretly patted himself proudly on the chest, is the magic, the power of my writing abilities ahahaha.

When they stood underneath the unfolding air town, various citizens flocked to the streets to look down and watch them.

Suddenly, one of them screamed, used a rope to swing down and came crashing on the ground to kneel before Frozen Milk. Then he bowed and kowtowed several times,

"Your Excellency, you're back! We were waiting for you!"

Masses of tiny vicious sweat drops attacked Frozen Milk and claimed his body, his whole face was a swimming pool.

Damn, Frozen Milk silently screamed. How could he forget he made them call him 'His Excellency' and enjoyed their obedient and maso attitudes.

"Your Excellency! It's really His Excellency!" more people knelt before Frozen Milk with admiration in their eyes.

Frozen Milk wanted to disappear.

"Oh, of course you'd be even popular here," Prota nonchalantly let out but the glint in his eyes painfully conveyed his jealousy.

"Your Excellency has come to bless us again! Everyone come down!"

On command, all the citizens flocked down to greet him.

He felt like a true fraud. They wouldn't even greet their king this enthusiastically, no? He regretted coming here, surviving in a bloodthirsty jungle would've been dozen times better than this. Yes, only a dozen times.

Frozen Milk was reminded of his city lord like behaviour as if he did all the poor people here a favour when in truth he used his bullshit spewing mouth to coax people into believing him and giving up their freedom to serve him.

Oh and because he blackmailed them, knowing their secrets. After all, 10 000 words a day wasn't possible without describing each little cannon fodder's life and playing on the thin patience of his readers.

"Your Excellency, please say something!"

"Erm, very well. I've come back as I promised!" although I'd have preferred to stay far far away, "I've brought guests. Lend us a place to stay."

Holbe looked at Frozen Milk in disdain. Frozen Milk knew she knew.

What a scum, he could hear her mind! Oh, cold goddess, please don't label me as that! Those were my past actions! I've sinned but became a better person now, can't you see?

"Father! You're really amazing!" Glimpse Water held his thumbs up, "this is the power of an author?"

Frozen Milk could see the little gears in Glimpse Water's head moving towards becoming a low life again. Frozen Milk was a bad influence.

"Please! Please! Come with us!" Cannon Fodder#1, who Frozen Milk called Canno, brought them up to their town and showed them around.

All the character names were an ensemble or anagram of the word cannon fodder, it went something like this:

Cannon, anno, anon, nonfo, nonfod, nfo, nfod, fodder, of, fod, foderc, derc, derca, dercan, erc, erca, ercan, rannon etc.

"I've done you all wrong," Frozen Milk apologised in his heart. He still remembered how much fun he had calling them by their names and ordering them around.

Canno showed them to the house Frozen Milk previously resided in. It was a big, spacious house with conveniently four bedrooms.

"How long will His Excellency stay?" Canno admired Frozen Milk and one day aspired to become like him.

He knew what that look in Canno's eyes was and he felt even more guilty.

"For a while, we are here for some business," Frozen Milk and the others sat on the sofa while Canno served them tea.

"You don't have to do that," Frozen Milk quickly said.

"Your Excellency, it was my joy and pride serving you when you were here! When your Excellency was gone, there was this huge hole in my chest that no matter what couldn't be filled! Please, your Excellency, let me serve you again!"

Canno dropped to the floor and kowtowed.

Holbe threw even more judging glances at Frozen Milk along with Prota. Frozen Milk wanted to exterminate the fact he used to keep butlers, more like 'slaves' to serve him.

He looked at the dazzling pleading look on Canno's face. He had big eyes that just oozed admiration and determination and an innocent look. He reminded him of how Prota used to be.

Frozen Milk couldn't break his heart and gave in.

"Alright."

"Of course, you'd say that. Showing affection to everyone but the most important one."

Now, you're throwing snarky comments at me? Frozen Milk turned to Prota who looked straight away and sipped on his tea.

"That's good! Ain't it? A little servant's perfect, so we can focus our time on other things than house chores, right father?"

Glimpse Water really came after Frozen Milk. This rotten attitude, no matter how much character development was stuffed into them, it'd always be inevitable there.

"Yes! You're His Excellency's guests! I will do my utmost to serve you! Please call me for anything you need!"

"What's your name?" Holbe looked at Canno who immediately blushed and fumbled with his words.

"I-It's Canno, your goddess."

Frozen Milk spat the tea, so he was a lowly Excellency but she was a goddess? Ah of course, of course! Typical guys! His dick was more rational than the rest of his body.

"You like her?" Prota seized Canno up.

"I-I don't dare..." but Canno blushed again.

"That's perfect," Prota seemed content and even smiled a bit. Of course! You have one less contender! Isn't that what you think?

"Canno? You said Canno?" Glimpse Water tried to hold in his laughter, "Father, you're very cruel, pfft hahaha!"

Fuck! Frozen Milk had hoped Glimpse Water wouldn't understand the origin but of course, he did! Of course, like father like son!

"Your Excellency must've been exhausted, please rest. I will prepare a bath for all of you and then after your rest, dinner will await you."

"Mhm, thank you," Frozen Milk applauded his previous self, he really knew how to enjoy himself.

If that youngster was willing to serve him, why should he refuse? Canno was still a teen, only 17 years old but later he'd become a soldier.

Frozen Milk returned to his room. It was time to gather some info about the villain and start thinking of a plan. But then there was a knock on his door.

"Holbe?"

"Please don't call me this."

"Ah, sorry but what are you doing here?"

Holbe walked to his bed, "I will sleep with you, Frozen Milk."
