Armipotent

Zaneos woke up earlier in the morning, early before the sun was up. As a demon, he had learned a lot about humans, including simple habits such as washing his face and brushing his teeth. He knew that it did not really matter if he brushed his teeth or not as his teeth would not decay, even if he lost his teeth, they would regrow back. But the habit was just infectious, watching all the people do it every morning, he started to follow them.

After the morning, he started with his morning walk, wearing sports pants, a black plain shirt, and running shoes. The only thing that did not change was his straw cone hat. He still had it, always on his head whatever he did. Working, training, or even going shopping. The hat never left his head when he was outside, and it had become his signature over time. People on the street called him Officer Strawhat, and it was how people called him now, even his subordinate.

Zaneos started the walk, his morning routine where he would walk around in this TEIS district. TEIS District was the government's land dedicated to TEIS. This was where TEIS officers lived, not a permanent lodging, but TEIS gave their officers the house if they did not have a residence, free for the officers.

Even though Zaneos was given a free room at the public residence in the city, he did not take it. He did not want special treatment just because he was someone close to Tang Shaoyang. A fresh start was what he wanted, starting with just his capability and getting what he wanted through his hands. That was satisfying, and he enjoyed his peaceful time.

"I wonder what His Majesty is doing right now?" While he was satisfied with his life right now, the thought of adventuring outside kept coming back to him. The joy of the process of becoming stronger was something he missed from his current life.

With his current job and sphere of working, it was unlikely to grow stronger even more than he was at right now. His job was limited inside the capital where he trained the TEIS Officers or the newly recruited officers. Of course, TEIS was still sending their officers out to hunt the monster and zombie, but there were no zombies or monsters that were on the same level as him. There was nothing to gain from killing them, so he became the overseer if TEIS sent their officers out hunting to raise their levels.

Ding!

A few minutes into the walk, he received a notification from the System. He looked up, and it was a message from Zhang Mengyao. It was rare for her to send him a message as they worked in different divisions. The military and internal security rarely had any interaction unless it was an emergency case. Or else, both divisions only met at the quarter meeting, that was the only interaction.

The demon swordsman opened the message, telling him to welcome his friends, Rosalie and Zowen. He was surprised to see those two names in the message. Of course, there were other things in the message, but he was quite excited to see these two. He stopped his track, changing his direction to the palace.

Zaneos picked up his face, going out of the TEIS district and heading to the Palace. The broken building and road were no longer around. Everything had been rebuilt and repaired. The dwarf lived up to their name as the master craftsman.

TEIS District was quite far from the Palace, but it took him less than minutes of a quick walk to get there. The Palace was the three tall buildings that Tang Shaoyang captured. The people relocated to another area, this had been the center of the Tang Empire's administration and also The Emperor's residence.

The skyscraper in the middle was where The Emperor lived, everything related to the Emperor would be handled in that building. The right building was for the military, TEIS, Healing Division, and so on. The left building was for the infrastructure department, education division, economy, finance, tax, and so on.

The word "Tang" was hanging on the left building, and the word "Empire" was hanging on the right building. Meanwhile, there was a giant sculpture in the middle building, right above the building. The giant sculpture was a Dragon with its wing open, staring down at the people who wanted to enter the Palace. The Dragon's tail coiled around the building.

That was the work of the dwarf as they wanted to surprise Tang Shaoyang once he returned from the tower. It was indeed nice to look at compared to a few months ago which was a mess. The dwarf did their best to reconstruct and repair the capital.

Zaneos reached the gate where eight Tarriors stayed on guard. He lifted up his cone strawhat, and the Tarrior on guard smiled and opened the gate. "We already know it's you, Sir. You can enter."

Zaneos nodded and headed to the middle building. The portal to the tower was not moved, so he must go there if he wanted to meet with Rosalie and Zowen. The security guards and the attendant recognized him. No one stopped him as he went to the underground floor.

As the demon stepped out of the elevator, arriving at the portal floor. He saw a big crowd near the portal. It was the same as the message, a big group of dwarves, and he immediately found his friends. Rosalie and Zowen seemed to have an argument with the attendant that received them.

The Demon Swordsman hurried over before the misunderstanding got bigger, "What's wrong?"

The attendant in uniform turned toward the voice and was relieved to see Zaneos, "Good morning, Sir." She greeted him, bowing her head slightly.

"These two ladies want to use the Talent Room and also the Class Room, but I was ordered to guide them to meet you."

Rosalie and Zowen turned toward Zaneos. They had the pleasant surprise for a moment to see the Demon Swordsman in the flesh, but their expression quickly returned to somber, "We don't have time to waste. Lead us to the Class Room!"
