Volume 5 Chapter 78 Signal tower

That tower already seemed quite high up when one was far away, but when one came closer, they would find that the steel tower was over twenty meters tall. One needed to look up to see the peak of the tower.

This iron tower took over a hundred square meters of land and with how high it was, it was quite noticeable.

When Xu Yi came close to the tower, he saw a bunch of magicians wearing the uniform of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce working on it. When he wanted to greet them, he heard a childish voice coming from the crowd.

“No! I want to go up! I want to go up!”

Xu Yi was stunned as he could immediately tell that it was Freya’s voice.

As expected, Akali’s helpless voice came from the crowd.

“Freya, it’s too high and it’s very dangerous. If you want to go up, I’m afraid that you’ll be scared.”

“I won’t be scared! With aunt Akali with me, there’s no danger at all!”

“But it’s too high up and it’s very windy up there, you’ll be cold.”

“No! Aunt Akali is a magician, you’ll protect me, right?”

Akali felt even more helpless.

“But I have work to do.”

Freya was silent for a bit before suddenly shouting, “Humph! Dad has work, mom has work, aunt Akali has work! You all won’t play with me! You all don’t want me!”

Freya’s voice had been filled with anger in the beginning, but then it turned to crying.

Xu Yi who had been planning on secretly listening to Freya and Akali on the side couldn’t stay there any longer, so he gave a cough and walked out.

“Freya, what are you doing here?”

Hearing Xu Yi’s voice, everyone’s eyes fell onto him.

Freya also stopped crying when she heard this and she came out from the slit in the crowd. When she saw Xu Yi, she immediately revealed a bright smile and jumped over to him.

“Dad!”

Xu Yi picked her up and seeing the tears that had been in the corner of her eyes, he felt a bit of guilt. He said in a soft voice, “Freya, why did you come here? Why aren’t you at home playing with your little brothers?”

“The little brothers can’t even speak, I don’t want to play with them.” Freya replied with pouted lips, “It’s not fun at home, so I had aunt Carol bring me out.”

Xu Yi turned to see Carol in the crowd before giving her a nod. He carried Freya over to Akali’s side.

Akali spread her hands with a helpless look, “Sir chairman, Freya insisted on going up the signal tower for a look, but I didn’t dare agree.”

Xu Yi revealed a smile before asking Freya, “Freya, why do you want to go up?”

“Because it’s very high.” Freya said in an honest voice, “I like high places. Dad, aunt Akalie isn’t willing to bring me up, how about you bring me up instead?”

Seeing Freya’s pleading look, Xu Yi couldn’t reject her and just gave a nod.

Freya cheered before waving her hand at Akali with a proud look on her little face.

Akali could only give a helpless bitter laugh.

“Alright, Freya, you play with aunt Carol on the side for a bit. I have to discuss something with aunt Akali, we can go up after I’m done.”

Freya agreed and slid down Xu Yi’s body to the ground. She went over to Carol and obediently stood there, looking at Xu Yi with an expectant look.

Seeing her appearance, Akali couldn’t help giving a laugh.

“Sir chairman, whenever I see Freya, I also want to have a child. If I can have one that is as cute as Freya, I would be too happy each day.”

Xu Yi laughed, “That is because you haven’t seen Freya when she gives you a headache. Oh, no, you’ve experienced it just now, so how was it? Do you still think she’s cute?”

“Of course.” Akali said with a smile, “Freya is such a cute child, I wouldn’t find it troubling even if she was spoiled. Then again, Freya is this good, I’ve never seen her cry for no reason before.”

“That is because Still and I taught her well.” Xu Yi gave a laugh and boasted without any hesitation, “But Akali, if you want to give birth to a child, you have to get married first.”

“Who says?” Akali rolled her eyes at Xu Yi, “Didn’t you see that her majesty gave birth without getting married? I want to learn from her!”

Xu Yi couldn’t help rolling his eyes.

Seveni getting pregnant before getting married, forgetting the other influence she had, she had been a source of enlightenment for the girls of the surrounding countries.

Yes, even her majesty could do this, why couldn’t they!
