?51: Chapter 41 Susanna’s Diary (Part 1)_1 51: Chapter 41 Susanna’s Diary (Part 1)_1 (Today, I’m back to post just once a day.

But I’ll continue to relentlessly ask for bookmarks and recommendations.

Friends passing by, please support.

Your support is my greatest motivation.

PS: There are fewer bookmarks recently, which is quite frustrating)
July 1, 2915, the weather is sunny.

I was particularly unhappy this morning.

Today is the first day I reported to Nala Mountain Range Research Institute.

Little angel Annie seemed to know that she would be separated from her parents for a long time from today.

She had been crying since last night.

My heart was close to breaking when I heard her cry.

I initially was against both of us working here.

I thought at least one of us should stay back to look after our little angel.

But Bell successfully persuaded me; the remuneration they were offering was just too high.

A monthly pay of 1,500 gold coins, additionally a yearly subsidy of 2,000 gold coins, and no possibility of life-threatening danger.

Even Gold Rank mages couldn’t imagine these sorts of terms.

Just like Bell suggested, if we can complete our contractually obligated ten years here, we could amass more than 300,000 gold coins for Annie.

If you include the 30,000 gold coins secrecy compensation per person when we leave, it would exceed 350,000 gold coins in ten years.

With that money, we could provide a princess-like lifestyle for our little angel.

And furthermore, with that money, we wouldn’t need to venture out anymore.

We could stay by Annie’s side every day.

Thinking about it now, it seems worth it indeed.

But, it will be quite tough on my little Annie.

She’s only just over one year old and she has to leave her parents for ten whole years.

Sorry, my dear child.

It’s not that mommy and daddy do not love you.

Mom and Dad have to do this to provide you with a better future.

Won’t you please forgive your parents?

My only regret is that you can only take ten days off to visit family once every three years, and not leave the institute otherwise.

Won’t be able to see Annie’s smiling face for three whole years, oh my god, can I really hold up?

Dear Silver Moon Goddess Mia, please grant me courage and perseverance.

December 8, 2915, the weather is, unknown.

After slightly over five months, I’ve finally adjusted to life here.

I no longer wake up habitually in the middle of the night to check on Annie, I no longer prepare breakfast first thing in the morning for Bell, no longer plan to clean up the yard and groom the lawn, and no longer habitually take the blankets out for sun-drying.

As Bell stated, working here is not bad in any sense, except that we won’t get to see the sun all year round and won’t have the freedom to leave at any time.

Besides the house being a bit small and not getting to see our little angel, everything else is the best.

Everything is taken care of.

Whenever we are hungry, the dining room is open twenty-two hours a day with people ready to serve.

The raw materials and quality of the food are absolutely top-notch.

Whenever we’re tired, professional masseuses are ready to visit and alleviate our fatigue.

If our clothes and blankets are dirty, we just need to notify someone and we’ll see new ones by evening.

If we fall sick, top possesors and therapists in all of Naren are ready to serve at anytime.

If we’re in a low mood, there’s an expensive artificial garden for us to admire.

We don’t need to be distracted by anything of daily living, just be fully committed to work.

Life here is not too shabby.

But, little Annie, Mommy misses you, each and every single day.

May 17, 2916, the weather, unknown.

I’m not feeling too well; the experiment from the day before yesterday failed, which has put a lot of pressure on me.

All the members of our Array Studies Team were very downcast these past couple of days.

The experiment failing wasn’t due to our lack of effort.

The creation of a new type of Combined Nidification Array always takes countless failures.

Everyone knows this as we all are mages- so why are we being looked at so differently, as if everything is our fault?

This isn’t fair.

My Annie, your mommy is feeling wronged.

You must feel it too, right?

Will you comfort mommy?

Teehee, you definitely will.

You are mommy’s most precious treasure.

I really want to kiss your little face.

As long as I can kiss your little face, mommy isn’t afraid of any wrong accusations.

May 19, 2916, the weather is unknown.

I had a big fight with Bell today, he is currently sitting at another table reading a book.

Both of us are ignoring each other in hopes that the other will apologize first.

Hmph, who ever apologizes first during our fights?

Maybe Bell is right, I have been pretty sensitive these past few days.

The experiment failed but everyone actually understands our difficulties and sympathizes with us.

No one is blaming us.

It seems that our guilt is playing tricks on us and making us suspicious, feeling as if everyone is watching us differently.

Thinking about it carefully now, maybe that is the truth.

Living here for a while makes someone abnormal.

It will still be two more years before I get to see my precious baby, even though it’s only for ten days.

I’m thinking of giving him an opportunity to apologize for his somewhat reasonable words.

Well, it’s decided then.

November 24, 2916, the weather is supposedly overcast.

A friend came back from a holiday today and they brought a drawing their son made for them.

The drawing was awful, clearly, their son isn’t very bright, unlike our smart little Annie.

Yesterday, an experiment conducted by the potion studies team failed and five test animals died.

According to what a friend from the therapy team privately told me, the reason was apparently that the vitality of the animals was excessively strong and their heartbeat was too fast, causing the heart to explode.

How can such a thing happen, what kind of potion are they researching?
