Unspeakable bubbles

“Reiko, although you keep saying you can’t bear this power, you still can’t bear to let go of it, can you?”

The little girl's words made Reiko's face grow even paler. She stood there motionless, as if she had turned into a statue.

"Well"

Bubble was also a little unsure of what to do. Should she help Reiko remove the black feathers herself?

However, unless you make up your mind yourself, no one else can do this for you.

"Reiko, don't worry."

The little girl tried to comfort Reiko: "Take it slow, become stronger little by little!"

"..."

Reiko walked out of the bathroom in silence. Without saying a word, she cooked a bowl of noodles for herself and Bubble.

"Reiko, Bubble is going back tomorrow."

"..."

"Want to go play at Bubble's house? We'll come back after the January holiday."

"..."

"Reiko, the noodles you cooked are really good!"

"..."

Reiko Hatta buried her head in her noodles, not saying a word.

"Get some rest early, and relax by wandering around the college during your vacation."

The little girl decided to ask Petty to take good care of Reiko, as her mental state was really bad.

The next day, the girl got up early and knocked on Petty's dormitory door.

"Aha--"

Patty rubbed her eyes: "Good morning, um, it's still dark. Let me check the time..."

"It's only 5:30?!"

Patty looked at the little girl helplessly: "What's wrong? I remember the farewell party was already yesterday."

"Patty, we're leaving in an hour."

"Oh"

"Please keep an eye on Reiko while Bubble is away."

"Looking after Lianzi?"

Patty was a little confused: "What's wrong with her? Is she sick?"

"Physically well, but mentally very bad."

The little girl pleaded, "Could you take a walk with Reiko every day?"

"Reiko and I aren't really friends."

Petty scratched his head: "If we're going for a walk, Mizushima..."

"Mizushima won't do."

The little girl shook her head: "He's not as strong as Patty, so he probably can't give Reiko any inspiration."

"Uh, I, I'm actually not that strong."

Petty knew his own limitations and was completely unworthy of the word 'powerful' used by the super strong.

"If one day, Patty, you get stronger and stronger just by running, what will you do?" the little girl asked a strange question.

"Can running make you stronger?"

Without a second thought, Petty immediately said, "Let's just keep running."

"Isn't Petty scared?"

"What are you afraid of?"

"The power is too strong, and I can't control it."

"Well..."

Petty thought for a moment and asked, "How strong will I become in the end? Is there no limit?"

"Yes, probably at the level of a super strong person."

"Then I'm not afraid."

Petty stated directly, "My goal is to one day surpass the Ape Monster, and to achieve this goal, the strength of a super-strong individual is essential."

"If running could make me a super strong person, I'd be laughing in my sleep! What's there to be afraid of!"

Upon hearing this, the little girl smiled and said, "Yes! That's the spirit I need. I guess I'll have to leave Reiko in Patty's care after all!"

"...Okay, for Bubble's sake."

Patty shrugged: "Don't worry, I'll take that guy for a walk every day."

"We still need to chat."

"Huh?"

Please!

"Phew, I got it, I got it."

Petty said somewhat irritably, "Well, we're friends, after all."

...................................................................

Bubble is back!

The little girl waved to the group of people who came to greet her: "Everyone looks great."

"Haha, seeing the thriving territory every day makes me feel incredibly energetic!"

Krov said with a smile, "Commander-in-Chief, would you like to take a look at your new castle? Although it is not yet completed, its general shape is already visible."

"what?"

The little girl paused for a moment: "A new, new castle?"

“As you mentioned last time, Commander-in-Chief, you wanted to build a special castle in the ‘Black Forest’,” Krov reminded him.

"Ah! That's right, that's right, Krov, you..."

The little girl was really touched. She had just said it casually, but she never expected that Krov would actually be built soon!

"Ahem, Mr. Krov, that's a bit unfair of you to say it like that."

Carmen interjected, "Without the skeletal warriors working day and night, the King's new castle wouldn't even have a foundation yet, would it?"

"Oh, really?"

Croft scoffed, "The Viper's construction team could easily work in three shifts, 24/7. If the Skeleton Warriors hadn't been kicking people out at the beginning, the progress might have been even faster."

"Are you joking again? The Viper's construction team only has a few people. Can they compare to the efficiency of the Skeleton Warriors working together?" Carmen said with a forced smile.

"Lady Carmen, everyone has their own area of ​​expertise."

Croft emphasized, "The skeleton warriors have no construction experience, and without the on-site guidance of the Viper engineers, what could you possibly build?"

"Then I should thank you, right?"

"You're welcome. It's all for the sake of serving the Commander-in-Chief."

"..."

"......"

"Hahaha"

"Hahahahaha"

Carmen and Crove stared at each other for a moment, then simultaneously let out a chilling laugh.

"The two of them are laughing in a really strange way."

“Master, the two lords have been acting rather strangely lately,” Annie said calmly.

"Hmm, let's go, let's go, Bubble, let's go see the new castle!" The little girl happily walked towards the Black Forest.

"Master, the carriage."

Anne quickly replied, "It'll be ready soon, please wait a moment, Master."

Although it's possible for everyone to walk there, firstly, the Black Forest isn't close to here, and secondly...

'If word got out that the entire Yoghurst leadership walked to see the new castle, everyone would be laughing their heads off.'

Her master might not care, but as the head maid, Anne had to avoid these negative effects.

"Oh"

The little girl nodded: "By the way, Carmen, Krov, how's your 'political affairs team' going?"

"We have recruited quite a few capable people."

Carmen glanced at Croft: "However, we still need to work on our teamwork."

"Commander-in-Chief, everything is progressing smoothly. But as Lady Carmen said, everyone needs a period of adjustment," Krov said with a smile.

"It's good that things are going well. You've been away for so long, is there anything you need Bubble to help you with?"

"There is indeed a rather tricky matter."

Carmen interjected, "William Boyle, that stubborn fellow, perhaps needs Your Majesty's help to face reality."
