Unspeakable bubbles

"Many noble ladies never leave their own territory in their entire lives."

"The world is so big, everyone should go out and see more of it."

The little girl said earnestly, "Otherwise, you'll miss out on a lot of fun things."

"Hmm, speaking of which, Miss Eileen, going to study in Charman is quite a long journey for you, isn't it?"

"In this respect, you are much luckier than many noble ladies."

When the topic suddenly shifted to her, Eileen nodded quickly.

“Yes, I’m so lucky! To have such an excellent classmate like you, Miss Becky, plus the Charman family’s meticulous care, I…”

"No need for formalities."

Becky interrupted her: "Miss Eileen, I'll get straight to the point."

"What do you need to talk to Bubble about? You can say it to each other now."

"No, no, the Viscount and I haven't spoken at all before today, so why would I need to talk to her?"

Seeing Eileen's firm denial, Becky immediately asked, "Then why do you keep staring at the bubbles!"

"I do not have……"

Bubble suddenly stopped, and her ears twitched.

“Your Excellency, you, you may be mistaken. Although sometimes I may appear to be looking at you, I am actually looking at something else.”

Eileen was about to explain when the little girl said, "Some small animals are coming."

"Huh?"

"It was hungry, restless, and had a... weird feeling."

"Ladies, please step back behind me."

Kidd consciously stepped to the front, gripping the hilt of his sword warily.

“Knight Kidd, where is your family heirloom sword?” Joan stepped forward and asked, glancing at the sword at Kidd’s waist.

Kidd glanced at Bubble nonchalantly: "The Viscount doesn't seem to like my sword very much, so I changed it today."

"Oh."

Joan didn't say anything more, but she felt a little strange.

Although Bubble is a viscount, according to Kidd, this Charman knight is a little too concerned about the little girl.

The two waited for a while, and the surroundings were calm, with no wild beasts suddenly appearing.

“Your Excellency, I think you might…”

"coming."

The little girl pointed forward, and with a rustling sound, a strange creature with a rat's head and a human body parted the bushes.

Its eyes were fierce, and when it saw Bubbles and the others, it couldn't stop drooling.

"Demi-human?"

Looking at this ugly fellow, Kidd roared, "You lowly wretch, get out of my sight!"

Section 362, Chapter 361: Differences Between Men and Women

Most demi-humans would have been terrified and run away in a panic upon hearing the knight's angry rebuke, but this rat-headed man didn't care at all.

It let out a threatening howl and charged swiftly toward Kidd.

Without further ado, Kidd flashed his sword, and the rat-headed man's head flew off.

"ah!"

Upon seeing such a bloody scene, Eileen screamed and crouched down, clutching her head.

Becky's face was pale, but she forced herself not to lose her composure.

Bubble, though the youngest of the three, was the most nonchalant.

"Hmph, demi-humans are indeed a bunch of brainless beasts, they can't even understand human language."

Kidd glanced at the corpse on the ground, his tone full of disgust.

"Is this what a demi-human is? This is the first time I've ever seen one."

Joan shook her head: "I thought they were humans with the characteristics of wild beasts, but I didn't expect them to be the opposite."

"No, the demi-humans Bubble knows are all very smart!"

The little girl pointed to the mouse head on the ground and said, "Bubble thinks there's something wrong with it."

"He's just a demi-human. Let's hurry and get somewhere else!"

Becky's gaze was unfocused; she seemed to want to see the rat-headed man on the ground, yet she was also afraid, looking quite conflicted.

“What you’re saying is true, Miss…”

Kidd, who was speaking, suddenly stopped. To his surprise, another demi-human with a forked tongue appeared in front of them.

"..."

"Let me do it this time, your methods are too violent."

Qiong stepped forward and sent the aggressive demi-human running towards them flying with a single palm strike.

In mid-air, the demi-human opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood full of ice shards.

After landing, it struggled on the ground for a few moments, then quickly became still.

"These two demi-humans are very strange. They both seem irrational and are not wearing clothes."

Joan guessed, "Could they be slaves who escaped from their master's house? I remember that demi-humans were quite popular in Saien."

"They don't look like runaway slaves."

After carefully examining the corpses on the ground, Kidd pointed to their hands: "Not a single callus. These aren't hands that do manual labor."

"There's something fishy about this."

"Let's hurry back, these demi-humans are too scary," Eileen said weakly, squatting on the ground.

“Bubble thinks we should find out more,” the little girl said enthusiastically.

"Huh?"

Eileen's face immediately showed fear, and she hurriedly turned to Becky for help, "Miss Becky, please persuade the Viscount, it's just too..."

"I believe Knight Kidd will protect us!"

Becky interrupted her, the young noblewoman's eyes now filled with eager anticipation.

"I agree with Bubble. We can't give up halfway through this rare adventure!"

"How...how could this be..."

Eileen said with a mournful face, "Can I go back first?"

"Suit yourself," Becky said casually, without even glancing at her.

"..."

After hesitating for a while, Eileen gave up the idea of ​​running back alone.

'Who knows if another terrifying demi-human will appear on the way back? It's safer to go with them.'

Thinking this, Eileen stood up shakily.

"Your legs are shaking so badly, let Bubble help you."

"Thank you, thank you so much!"

Unexpectedly, Eileen received help from the little girl, and her eyes were filled with gratitude.

Despite Becky's statement, Kidd still looked hesitant.

He hesitated before speaking, "Miss, everyone's safety is paramount. Why don't we go back first and make thorough preparations..."

"A mere few demi-humans? Don't you have any confidence, Knight Kid?" Becky said somewhat angrily.

Just moments ago, she had confidently assured Eileen that Kidd would protect them, but now Kidd's words have undoubtedly made her lose face.

"I understand."

Since his young mistress had said so, Kidd could only nod helplessly.

The group continued onward, encountering one after another highly aggressive and incommunicable demi-humans along the way.

Thanks to this, Kidd was able to follow the clues and quickly find the source of the anomaly.

“They crawled out of this hole; I guess there must be a hidden world underground.”

Kidd pondered for a moment: "Perhaps we can find a relic today."

"remains!"

Becky's eyes sparkled: "If there really are ruins... then this is going to be a real adventure!"

"Hurry down and take a look..."

"Absolutely not."

Kidd said resolutely, "This time, we absolutely cannot go along with your wishes, Miss! I can handle the demi-humans, but there might be some dangers underground that I cannot handle."

"But, but if I give up halfway, I will definitely regret it for the rest of my life," Becky said anxiously.

"If something were to happen to you down there, I would regret it for the rest of my life."

This time, no matter what Becky said, Kidd wouldn't budge.

"Becky, do you really want to go down and take a look?" the little girl suddenly asked Becky.

"Of course I want to. This is my first big adventure in life, and I don't want to slink back like this."

"kindness."
