Haruki struggled to find any trace of Lanling until a maid sweeping the nearby garden mentioned that he had left the barracks long ago and was now staying at the side castle.
Without hesitation, he used his 'transmigrator' privileges to locate the side castle and gain entry. But just as he was about to walk in confidently, he spotted his target sitting under a beautiful patio adorned with elegant white furniture and light-colored flowers.
Lanling was absentmindedly staring at his teacup, leisurely leaning back in his chair.
He had changed out of his silver and blue uniform and was now dressed in a wine-red traditional Chinese robe with intricate silver engravings. His legs were crossed, revealing sturdy dark boots beneath the elegant attire.
