Sneaking into the Momang Palace is much easier than sneaking into the Melo Petersburg.

The guards of Melo Petersburg work in shifts, while the social animals of Mo Mang Palace work overtime. The guards of Melo Petersburg can go back to the dormitory to rest after work, while the social animals of Mo Mang Palace are too lazy to even go home.

As dawn approached, Seraphina released a little elemental power to greet Navelette, and then pushed open the door of Momang Palace.

The overtime workers were sprawled out on their workstations, trying to catch some sleep. The sound of Seraphina pushing the door did not alarm them at all.

Seraphina walked all the way to Villette's office and looked at the scene of hell.

Some of them lay directly on the table, some put a few chairs together and lay on them, some lay directly on the table. And that little Melusine Sedna, she lay on the ground.

Seraphina pulled Sedna's spare uniform off and placed it over her belly.

It's so pitiful. Don't catch a cold.

Sedna turned over while holding her clothes, uttering some meaningless syllables.

I always feel that these people sleep more deeply than the drugged Navilette.

Seraphina complained in her mind and pushed open the door to Villette's office.

The Water Dragon King was still processing documents with great energy: "Ms. Seraphina, please wait a moment."

After Violet lowered Seraphina's danger level in her mind, she was no longer so nervous.

"Then I'll do as I please." Seraphina had a sense of relaxation that Villette didn't have. Villette asked her to wait for a moment and she really started walking around here.

She found the tea set, sat on the sofa, poured herself a glass of water, and chatted casually: "Have you considered preparing some cushions?"

"There are mattresses and quilts in the next room, but from what I've observed, they don't want to use them." Navilette said in confusion.

"I see." Seraphina picked up a book of rules and regulations for Fontaine civil servants and started reading.

This was public information, so Villette didn't care.

Seraphina just flipped through it at first, and the more she flipped through it, the weirder her expression became. "I think I understand why they don't want to use those mats. Do you have to submit a written application to your superiors to get the mats?"

Navrette nodded modestly, "Indeed. When withdrawing office supplies, you need to attach a written explanation, and your superiors need to respond in writing regardless of whether they approve it or not."

Seraphina simply couldn't imagine that a social animal who worked overtime until the early morning didn't even want to go home and just wanted to spend one night at the company, and had to apply for a mat from the company.

"Why is it so troublesome?" Seraphina looked at the regulations. Almost every one of them required a written application.

What kind of perseverance does it take to be willing to be a civil servant in Mo Mang Palace!

If anyone says that Villette is Fontaine Elhaise again, she will throw this booklet in his face.

That Villette had no idea that family disgrace should not be made public, so while working, she explained to Seraphina the origins of these regulations.

Many years ago, when Nawilate first came to power, the office supplies in the Momang Palace could be taken away by simply registering. Soon, Nawilate discovered that the contents of a warehouse could be taken away in basically one or two days.

This incident seriously affected the finances of Mo Mang Palace. The relevant person in charge went to investigate and found that people had developed many strange uses for office supplies.

There are no cutlery for dinner today. Give me a ruler and a pen and I will use them as a knife and fork.

I don’t have a pillow for my nap today, so give me ten notebooks and I’ll stack them up to use as pillows.

A child was crying today, so I gave him three boxes of erasers and I gave them to him to use as building blocks.

Even the mats provided to employees who work overtime were cut into scraps of cloth and made into handicrafts to decorate their desks.

So Funina required a written application to withdraw office supplies.

At the beginning, the written application was very simple: xx employee of xx department needs to withdraw xx amount of xx due to xxxx reason, and then just stamp it with the department's seal.

The office staff will not approve outrageous reasons. If you get something with a reasonable reason and then do something outrageous, you will be held accountable.

But the old forces in Fontaine always like to do something fancy. They can't compete with Villette for power, so they can only do something formalistic. They set regulations on the paper, ink color, font, and so on of this application.

Villette didn't support it, but the civil servants at the time thought it was very stylish. These applications were essentially people looking for trouble, and they didn't affect their workload. Villette said it a few times and then stopped caring about it.

Thus, the lengthy written application became a tradition for Fontaine civil servants.

Seraphina: "......"

Sure enough, behind every outrageous regulation there is an even more outrageous story.

"You... forget it." Seraphina hesitated and finally swallowed her words.

She suspected that even after hundreds of years, Villette still hadn't figured this out.

The government's funding may seem large, but each amount is limited. There is only a certain amount allocated for office supplies, and if it exceeds the limit, it must be transferred from other places. It's okay once or twice, but if it happens too many times, people will be resentful.

The misuse of office supplies will not only cause financial burden, but also reduce office efficiency.

This incident didn't happen earlier or later, but happened when Villette just arrived. Isn't it obvious what happened?

This is a little move against that Villette!

By asking for a written application, Funina was helping Villette.

Those old forces who wanted to make small moves failed in their first plan and came up with another plan. They wanted to continue to increase the time cost of office work by using complicated written applications, stimulate the resentment of civil servants, and use this to squeeze out Navilette.

But Funina was a boastful god. At that time, the Momang Palace was full of her followers. Following her example, the subordinates also liked to write exaggerated and gorgeous written applications, which made a dispute disappear invisibly.

Later civil servants who came into contact with these things would only curse the traditions, not Navilette.

So after hundreds of years, Villette still hasn't figured out what's going on.

What a simple dragon, he doesn't play any tricks at all.

Seraphina sighed under Villette's confused look.

Villette finished the document in his hand and sat down opposite Seraphina: "Ms. Seraphina, you said before..."

"Here." Seraphina took out a large metal box and took out a few more boxes and piled them in the corner of Villette's office. "The quantity is not large, and the raw materials are difficult to find."

When I opened the box, I saw some transparent small objects, each half the size of a palm, neatly stacked inside, with a red button in the middle.

Seraphina took out three more shields and said, "I won't interfere with how you use them. You can decide for yourself. But these three must be sent to the Thorn Rose Society."

Seraphina was also worried about Fernina and Navia today.

Seraphina warned again, "Don't mention my name."

She still wanted to live in the human world, and this thing was too explosive for an archaeologist like her to create.

Navrette studied the shield given by Seraphina and said sincerely: "For Ms. Seraphina's contribution, we should grant you the honorary title of 'Duke'."

Seraphina: “…” Goodbye, Ying will be sarcastic to her!
