[Extra premise: Magic Silver's temporal properties are discovered in advance]

"Latest report! An Alzheimer's patient in B-City, Painehurst has made a miraculous recovery after being exposed to a new metal! It is reported that the new metal has spatio-temporal properties ......"

Tang Bai sits on the sofa and watches the news. Six-year-old Tang Bai has big, bright amber eyes and light curly hair, making her look like a gentle lamb.

He turned the newcomer up to 6, just in time to drown out the bickering between Papa Tang and Grandpa Tang upstairs.

Ever since he was tested as an omega after differentiation, Grandpa and Dad have been fighting and Mum has cried many times.

Tang Bai tugged at his little white lace-trimmed dress and touched his hand to the little bear brooch, which his mother and Uncle Lai had taken him to buy yesterday.

Before the split he wanted to buy clothes like this, but his family preferred him to dress up in A-list clothes.

But yesterday, all of Tang Bai's neutral or A-list clothes were removed from the wardrobe and packed into boxes, along with the mechanical toys that her grandfather had made for Tang Bai.

An omega shouldn't have to use these.

That's what Grandpa said.

Grandpa also uninstalled the training games on Tang Bai's optical brain, Little Spaceship Adventures, Little Tang, Marvel Mecha Maker Around the World ......

Tang Bai stares down at the only games left on her light computer, her little face not showing much emotion, but the sweet smell of milk candy emanating from her body.

At this time, Tang Bai has just completed his differentiation and when he gets emotional, he emits pheromones, which are the milk candy smell that Tang Bai likes so much, but his family is not happy to smell them.

A message alert popped up, a picture of a milk candy posted by Uncle Lai, with the caption "The smell of milk candy makes you feel better, I bought a bag of milk candy for you".

Tang Bai liked the circle, trying to squeeze a smile out of his face, his dimples appearing in his milk fat.

" Tang Tang ......" Papa Tang came down from upstairs, seeing Tang Bai's dumbfounded face holding the light brain and smiling, a trace of intolerance flashed in his eyes, "Whatever you want, papa can buy it for you, it's okay if those mechanical toys grandpa made for you are taken away, papa can find someone to make the exact same one for you."

Tang Bai did not speak.

He would love to get back the mechanical toys that were taken away from him, not only because they were interesting, but also because they were made for him by his grandfather himself.

His grandfather was the best grandfather in the world, but now his grandfather doesn't want him to touch these things anymore.

He was so angry about it that he spent a whole day alone in the weapons research room without eating or drinking, and he shouldn't make him angry again as he got older.

But if he didn't want anything, Dad would be upset too.

The news continues: "Experts name this new metal Magic Silver ......"

Tang Bai looked up at the shiny silver metal on the screen and said in a milky voice, "Do you really want anything? I want this magic silver, it's so beautiful!"

At this time, even the stars in the sky, not to mention the magic silver, Papa Tang would have plucked them for Tang Bai. Buy, buy anything, as long as it makes our Tang Tang happy!

Tang Bai smiled brightly at this, showing off his snow-white teeth with one missing incisor. He got off the couch with his bare feet and ran to Papa Tang, clutching his thighs and saying excitedly, "I also want to make beautiful necklaces out of magic silver that I can hang around my neck, the bling-bling kind~! "

Papa Tang instantly switched into his silly dad state, "How about we use whatever that magic silver is for the chain body and pick a great big gem for the main stone?"

Father and son discuss the matching necklaces feverishly, with a look of relief in their eyes: they've finally got him right.

*

The Tang Family discussing Tang Bai's primary schooling while the "Sea of Azure" is around his neck.

The school originally chosen by the Tang Family for Tang Bai was the Central Primary School attached to the Federal Military Academy, but now that Tang Bai has split into an omega, it is clear that he can no longer attend this top junior college.

The point of contention now is whether they want Tang Bai to go to a dedicated omega junior college or a comprehensive junior college where both omega and beta can attend.

"Go to a special O-school. Tang Tang didn't study art, cooking or omega manners when he was a kid, he didn't have a good foundation, but it's not too late for him to learn. Grandpa Tang stopped mid-sentence.

"I've seen the timetable for Year 1 and even the maths classes are as simple as adding and subtracting within 20, not to mention mechanical engineering for beginners. What is Tang Tang doing in these classes? Papa Tang said coldly.

Mama Tang looked at her incompatible husband and father-in-law, but she tried her best to make things easier: "O-schools and comprehensive colleges are both good, it depends on what Tang Tang likes.

Tang Bai, who was unconsciously playing with his chain with his fingers, blinked as he looked at three concerned faces before he looked back and he said cautiously, "I want to take the entrance exam for the Central Primary School attached to the Federal Military Academy."

"Just a test, no admission, is that okay?"

The parents looked at each other and finally Grandpa Tang said, "Yes."

This may sound strange at first, but the parents of the Tang Family can understand, as Tang Bai's previous education has been an elite alpha education, and the school she wants to attend is an alpha academy.

It was a big regret for Tang Bai that she suddenly missed out on her dream academy and wanted to sit for the exams at the Federal Military Academy's Central Primary School in order to round off her training career.

Grandpa Tang replied and then got tired, and instead of continuing the conversation about whether he wanted to go to O-school or a comprehensive college, he got up and left.

Papa Tang sighed and looked at Tang Bai who was fondling the necklace with distress.

Little did anyone know that what really drove Tang Bai to this decision was a strange book in his head -

This omega is a marshal

Tang Bai accidentally triggered the temporal properties of Magic Silver a few days ago, and reading this novel was a little difficult for Tang Bai, who is still six years old.

He has the same name and background as one of the characters in the book and will later be matched with an alpha named Gu Tunan.

Tang Bai has met two of Uncle Lai's children, Gu Hongxuan and Gu Jingqi, but Gu Tunan was always missed for various reasons.

The last time Tang Bai was taken out shopping with Li Songyun by Mama Tang, he learned from Li Songyun that Gu Tunan was enrolling in the Federal Military Primary School.

If this had happened before, Tang Bai would have told his grandfather about the abnormalities in his mind, but after this diversion, Tang Bai has many little secrets of his own.

He didn't want to make his grandfather angry and didn't want to give up the weapon making he loved, so he did it secretly without his grandfather's knowledge.

Tang Bai set the necklace in place and he tilted his head slightly, a sweet smile on his angelic features.

Central Primary School attached to the Federal Military Academy.

Mama Tang held Tang Bai's hand as she stood outside the examination room. In addition to the written test, parents are required to accompany Tang Bai to the EYFS interview, and in a crowd of alpha or beta kids, Tang Bai, who smelled like a milk candy, stood out.

They are both children now, and alpha children will instinctively want to be close to this little omega who is like a walking milkshake.

"Mummy." Little Mo Zheng said bluntly, "I want to eat candy."

Mo's mother opened her handbag and showed it to Mo Zheng, "Do you want some gum?"

Similar scenes were seen among many alpha children and parents, while Tang Bai, who made the test-taking children cry, was playing a game.

Grandpa uninstalls the games on Tang Bai's photobrain to the point where he is left with only the amusement and dress-up mini-games, which are not enough for Tang Bai, so he registers a popular cosmic adventure game using Papa Tang's identity information, a game that requires teamwork in which Tang Bai is responsible for flying the spaceship.

" Tang Tang, stop playing, look who's here?" Tang Bai looked up and saw Li Songyun walking towards him with a small blue-eyed alpha.

Although this alpha child has a baby bump, he already has the air of an old cadre, and will be a class officer or student council president in school in the future.

"Hello, Uncle Lai," said polite little Tang Bai, who was already waving in greeting, but little Gu Tunan had a stern face.

"Xiao Nan, this is the Tang Tang brother that little dad told you about. Li Songyun enthusiastically introduced Tang Bai to Gu Tunan.

Gu Tunan nodded coolly to Tang Bai without saying a word.

Tang Bai: "?"

"It's not that Xiao Nan doesn't like you, he's in the middle of a tooth replacement and has lost all of his two front teeth, so he's not usually happy to talk." Li Songyun relentlessly exposes the shortcomings.

So that's it.

The game failed to beep and the ship crashed in the meteorite belt because Tang Bai was temporarily disconnected, but instead of teammates scolding Tang Bai, one teammate chatted with Tang Bai attentively: "What happened to you just now, big guy? Is there something wrong?"

Tang Bai withdrew her eyes and typed calmly, "I have to go for an interview, I'll see you tomorrow."

The team hurriedly said, "Is it a job interview? Go big man!"

Tang Bai thought about it and didn't tell the harsh truth that she was taking the EYFS.

The exams started soon afterwards and Tang Bai entered the examination room with her pass number and a bunch of little carrot heads, and when the papers were handed out, the room was filled with the sound of rustling pens.

The invigilator saw the young omega sitting by the window with one hand on his chin and the other hand spinning his pencil rapidly; he seemed distressed by the paper and was not happy after scanning the whole paper.

The school questions are already difficult, and some of the competition questions are even too difficult for college students to do, so they are still too difficult for this omega cutie, right?

I heard that the old man from Tang Family has spent a lot of time and effort on this child, but omega is omega and no amount of teaching is as good as alpha.

The invigilator's eyes moved away from Tang Bai and looked towards Gu Tunan with satisfaction.

Gu Tunan's handwriting is so neat and beautiful that even without seeing whether the answers are correct or not, the handwriting alone is pleasing to the eye, with a single stroke and a single stroke, as if it were printed.

Tang Bai made sure that there was not a single question on the paper that he could type, and then he boredly stopped turning his pencil and started filling in the answers on the fly from the first question, turning the paper over with a clatter when he was done.

Tang Bai, the first person in the room to turn the page, caught the invigilator's attention again. The invigilator couldn't help but walk over and try to remind this little cutie not to fill in the form blindly.

Tang Bai's muscles are not fully developed, his wrist is not strong enough and his handwriting is childish, but he writes down his answers so fast that he finishes all the fill-in-the-blank questions in almost a blink of an eye.

The invigilator's mind went blank for a moment as he stood beside Tang Bai trying to do the questions mentally, fill in the blanks first, correct, second, correct, third ......

Correct.

Correct.

All correct!

The tip of the pen drew a circle in the last answer area on side two, a small rounded full stop after the answer had been verified, followed by a twirl of the pen in Tang Bai's small hand as Tang Bai turned the page of the exam paper, so quickly that he did not leave the invigilator time to verify the large questions on side two.

As a teacher at the Central Primary School attached to the Federal Military Academy, he was well aware of the difficulty of each admission paper.

How is this possible?

How could an omega do all this?

"Teacher, I've finished writing, can I hand in my paper?" Tang Bai asked dutifully, raising her little hand.

Only twenty minutes had passed and the young candidates in the examination room were looking at Tang Bai, even Gu Tunan.

"...... You can't turn in your papers early half an hour before the start time." The invigilator said with a trance-like expression.

Tang Bai let out a cry as he took out his brand new sketchpad and leaned over the table to scribble on the snow-white paper.

He drew a mech.

It was the outline of a cute bunny mech, and he looked down at the prototype on the paper and slowly erased it with an eraser.

No one knows what's going on in his little head at this time, except that everyone has to admit that little Tang Bai looks adorable with his twinkling eyes and little grown-up look of despondency.

Tang Bai was the first one to walk out of the examination hall after the written test. He looked around the waiting group of parents and saw a silver-haired, green-eyed omega among them, Bai Zhi, aged 18, wearing a round monocle, with the characteristic youthful look in his eyes, but perhaps it was the lenses, but there was always a lingering gloom in his green eyes.

Tang Bai searched all the main characters from that book in reality, including Bai Zhi, the omega big brother who the book said would later become the first omega councilor.

How can an omega be an MP?

Tang Bai cocked his little head as he thought again of the book's protagonist, Xie Ruhang, the first ever omega marshal, and if he could find a Xie Ruhang in the slums who met the book's criteria, he could further explore the temporal properties of the magic silver.

What secrets does that book hold, a foretelling of the future, or a nonsensical fabrication of a story?

Tang Bai really wanted to know the answer to all this so badly that if he were twenty-six now, he could run to the Weapons Institute and study the magic silver with professional instrumentation and personnel, and if he were sixteen now, he could sneak out of school to find the things mentioned in the novel in reality and verify them one by one.

But he is only six years old now, not independent and busy with his EYFS exams.

"Tang Tang, are you tired of exams? Would you like to have some of the iced sugar and snow pear soup that mama made for you?" Mama Tang said softly as she brought the bowl of sweet soup to Tang Bai.

Tang Bai gulped down a large bowl, he let out a sigh of satisfaction and hugged Mama Tang's arm and rubbed his face around happily, "It's cold, it's so good~"

Li Songyun's heart melted as he watched, and he couldn't resist stroking Tang Bai's little head as Gu Tunan walked out of the examination hall.

Gu Tunan: "I'm not hungry."

Li Songyun: "......"

The interviews were held in groups of three students, grouped according to their written test scores. When the top three written test results were announced, the crowd gasped, "First place is an omega?" "His name is Tang Bai and he is the grandson of His Excellency Tang Rong. " "A perfect score?! How did this come out of the exam?!"

Tang Bai looked at Gu Tunan's score and came second, five points below him.

He revisited in his mind the famous scene in that book where the adult Gu Tunan taunts him about being a vase.

Tang Bai looked up at Gu Tunan, and the little blue-eyed boy looked at him unblinkingly, with curiosity and friendliness in his eyes, a far cry from the scornful eyes depicted in the book.

If that book can really tell the future, then it looks like that future can be changed.

That's funny~

Tang Bai's eyes curled up in a happy smile, full of anticipation like he had found a new toy, as he basked in the amazement of the crowd and listened to the teacher announce the first group to be interviewed.

Tang Bai, Gu Tunan and Bai Li were the first group to be accompanied by their parents into the meeting room for the interview, which tested their general qualities.

Mecha-assembly.

The parts for the basic mech assembly are placed in a basket and the teacher demonstrates how to assemble the simplest robotic arm from fifty pieces. If they can't remember the process from just watching it once, parents can watch a replay video for tips.

As the teacher patiently took each step apart and demonstrated it, little Bai Li shrugged, not sure if he was showing off or provoking, and said in a milky voice, "I already know this one."

He would have been more arrogant if he hadn't been missing an incisor, which caused him to speak out of turn.

Tang Bai continued to watch the instructor's explanation without listening. In fact, Tang Bai was able to put the arm together without watching the instructor's demonstration, but his good upbringing made him stay in his seat and watch the instructor's tutorial.

Bai Li's expression was not too happy when he saw Tang Bai not even looking at him.

After the demonstration, the children were asked to start assembling. Bai Li held his breath and started to put things together at speed.

He was then pulled away from Tang Bai and left unceremoniously behind.

Bai Li, who was furious, heard the teacher say, " Tang Bai, the youngest student, was out of my league ......"

No big deal, if I had to do it again ...... Well, I probably couldn't beat him either.

Bai Li sulked, he had thought that if the omega who smelt so good couldn't spell, then he could reluctantly give the other man some tips.

The teachers then tested the three children's memory skills, logical thinking, observation and so on.

It's a shame.

How is it that such a wonderful child is an omega?

Even if he is a beta, his future achievements are absolutely unlimited.

The final test was on verbal skills and the teachers asked Tang Bai, "What is a problem that has been bothering you recently?"

Tang Bai sits on a high chair, the height of which allows him to look at these adult alpha's eye to eye.

His back was straight but not overly tense, his hands rested naturally on the armrests of his chair, and his jaw was slightly lifted, Tang Bai looked not like a student being interviewed, but rather a young lord in high places.

"I've been wondering lately if an omega would be better off as an MP or a marshal." He said in a soft, sticky voice.

The adults froze for a moment and broke out into good-natured laughter, "This when I was a little alpha I had a similar thought about whether I would be better off in the council or the weapons institute."

"But in the end I became a glorified primary school teacher hahaha." Having had enough of laughing the teacher asked, "So did our little Tang Bai think of an answer to that question?"

Tang Bai children said, "I think it's best that an omega can do whatever he or she wants to do, whether it's a marshal, an MP or a people's teacher."

Bai Zhi raised her eyes for a moment to look at Tang Bai.

He jumped out of his chair after seeing the child child talk, taking first place in the composite test yet clapping his little hands together and saying without a moment's hesitation, "Let's go."

Mama Tang bends down and asks, "Don't you want to hang out more at this school?"

"There's nothing special here." I don't know if it was intentional or not, but Tang Bai looked back at Bai Zhi, "Maybe O-school is more interesting, Mum, let's report to O-school."

*

When Bai Zhi arrived at Tang Bai's class as a trainee teaching assistant, he saw Tang Bai surrounded by a pile of fragrant little omega's as the children watched Tang Bai fold the roses, which she did so quickly and well that her origami creations were the difference between a sellers' show and a buyers' show.

"Tang Tang, can you give me this when you're done? I'll give you one of Mummy's cupcakes in exchange!" "I want Tang Tang's roses too!" "Tang Tang, you're amazing! ......"

These omega kids looked at Tang Bai with adoration, so when Tang Bai gave Bai Zhi the paper roses, the heartbroken stares from the little omegas gave Bai Zhi an inexplicable feeling of guilt.

"Mr. Bai Zhi, this is for you." Tang Bai cupped his hands around the flower and said.

"Thank you." Bai Zhi puts the delicate little rose in his pocket. It is a beginner's maths class and Bai Zhi is responsible for maintaining discipline and distributing exam papers.

Unlike the child king in the classroom, Tang Bai looks out of place in the classroom, filling in all the answers long before the rest of the children are serious about answering their papers.

Tang Bai's chin is propped up in her hand and her amber eyes are vacant as the teacher goes over the most basic and light-skinned points, and it is only occasionally when a bird calls from outside the window that her pretty eyes suddenly turn up and look out into the daylight.

Bai Zhi, like Tang Bai, was also staring into the blue, vast, four-horned sky.

Bai Zhi was deeply troubled by a problem, and that problem was...

What should he do to have the right.

When he got home, Bai Zhi took the rose out of his pocket. It was a white rose with a faint black colour in the stamen, and it seemed to be some kind of writing. Bai Zhi unwrapped the rose and saw the small, childish writing

" Hon Bai Zhi, if you've been struggling with how to become an MP lately, perhaps I can give you a little premature advice, provided you can take me to a beta called Xie Ruhang in the slums."
