Unspeakable bubbles

“Hirano Mana! Don’t forget, you too…”

"What do you mean 'what do you mean'? If I had ulterior motives, would I have betrayed you, the traitor?"

"We've known each other for a while now, so I wouldn't want to do this if possible."

"But, what can I do? I'm utterly loyal to the Earl!"

"Qiong, think it over carefully. I'll come see you again tomorrow."

"If you still..."

"roll"

"Hirano Mana, I was so blind! Get out of here!"

Section 584, Chapter 583: I knew all along.

"Hey, good morning, Joan."

"Good morning, Your Excellency..."

Joan stood nervously in front of Bubble, wondering whether she should say her resignation first.

"Joan, are you happy with your job now?"

"..."

"It's alright."

"To be honest!" the little girl said with a smile.

"Well, actually, I'm not that happy either."

Joan scratched her head: "I've never done this before. Although I've tried my best, I just can't seem to get any results."

"I don't feel a sense of accomplishment. I always feel like I'm just going through the motions."

"Haha, Joan, is there anything you're good at and enjoy doing?"

"Both good at it and enjoy it..."

"Then the only option is to open a martial arts school."

"Martial arts school?"

"kindness!"

Qiong nodded: "The Heavenly Maiden Sect encourages its disciples to venture out into the world, and many of the senior sisters have opened martial arts schools in the Federation."

"When things were difficult at the beginning, the sect provided support. After the martial arts school gained a foothold, it also gave the sect corresponding rewards every month."

“I am well-liked in the Heavenly Maiden Sect. When many of my senior sisters go out to open martial arts schools, they will ask me to help them.”

"After a while, I became quite experienced."

"As a disciple of the sect, it is naturally a very fulfilling and joyful thing to be able to contribute to the growth and development of the Heavenly Maiden Sect."

"So, therefore..."

"So, Joan, do you want to open a martial arts school?"

"Well, for the time being... I don't want to go back to the Federation. After thinking it over, I think I'll open a martial arts school in the territory."

Joan lowered her head: "I'm sorry, Your Excellency. I have failed to live up to your expectations and have not done a good job as sheriff."

"It's okay, it's okay. The most important thing is to be happy."

The little girl then asked, "Have you decided where you want to open the martial arts school?"

"Not yet."

Qiong said shyly, "Well, I have a general idea, but I haven't thought about the rest in detail yet."

"Yes, I'll have Croft look after you, don't worry."

“Your Excellency, Earl…”

Joan was immediately moved; she knew, of course, the weight of those words.

Crove is the real power behind the Yog territory. With his slight favor, the martial arts school's reputation will at least be secure.

This saved such a huge amount of money!

Moreover, how could Krov not do his best in something that the Earl had personally instructed him to do?

Joan was both surprised and delighted, her face full of gratitude: "With the Earl's help, the Heavenly Maiden Sect's first martial arts school in Sein, no, in a foreign country, can be opened!"

"Master will be very happy, thank you. I... I didn't really help much..."

"Don't say that, have you forgotten?"

“It was you and Zhenming who brought Bubble from the Federation to Sien, and you took care of me the whole way.”

"Please don't say that we weren't helpful or anything. Bubble has always felt that it was so great to have you guys there back then."

"..."

"Oh, by the way, it seems that your Heavenly Maiden Sect only accepts women?"

"Yes"

"Is it the same if you open a martial arts school, only accepting female students?"

"That's the rule, there's nothing we can do about it," Joan said, somewhat frustrated.

The Heavenly Maiden Sect had no foundation in Sain to begin with, and its martial arts school initially only recruited women...

Just thinking about it gave Joan a headache.

Crove can prepare the facade for himself, and he can also help mediate the relationship between the legitimate and criminal worlds. It's not like the apprentice has to trouble someone else to find him, is it?

"The Heavenly Maiden Sect isn't well-known in the territory, Qiong, how do you plan to recruit people?"

"First, we need to find a way to make the martial arts school famous. Once the school has a reputation, we won't have to worry about finding students."

If you want your martial arts school to become famous, the simplest and most direct way is to challenge other schools!

Many senior female disciples do this; with the sect backing them up, they don't have to worry about the aftermath.

Can……

'Sean doesn't run martial arts schools, so I have nowhere to challenge any schools I want to challenge.'

Just as Qiong was feeling troubled, the little girl spoke up: "Qiong, when the martial arts school opens, Bubble will come and cheer you on."

“My Lord Earl, you should come in person!” Joan exclaimed, her eyes wide.

"Yes!" The little girl nodded with a smile.

"..."

"Your Excellency, there is something..."

Joan stammered, "I... I hesitated for a long time, but I still... I still want to be honest with you."

"What is it?"

Joan swallowed hard. Bubble had been so good to her; she couldn't keep it a secret any longer!

"When I first started following you, it was actually because I had a mission."

“Every month, I will report the situation in Yogtis to the Federation!”

"..."

After saying that, Qiong nervously observed the little girl's expression.

"Oh"

"Which one?" The little girl said "Oh" and then didn't react much.

"...Your Excellency?"

“Bubble already knew,” the little girl said, surprising Joan.

"Hey!"

"Qianbian is a professional."

With just one sentence, Joan understood everything.

"Bubble was a little angry at first, but I forgive you."

The little girl waved her hand: "Let bygones be bygones."

"Monk, how have you been lately?"

"Lady Carmen!"

Monk was pleasantly surprised and welcomed Carmen into his rented house: "What brings you here today?"

"Let me check your progress and see if you've been slacking off."

"Lady Carmen, you've arranged for someone to teach me to read and write, and to teach me martial arts. If I don't work hard and instead slack off... I'd be a terrible person!"

"Haha, they all say you're smart and studious, but seeing is believing, I want to come and see for myself."

Carmen patted Monk on the shoulder: "Let me see your name first."

"Yes!"

"Yes, and also, please read this passage."

Carmen took out a book and began to test Monk.

"That's right. He was completely illiterate before, but after some intensive study, he's no longer illiterate."

'His body has become stronger; he's no longer that thin and weak person.'

'Monk, you finally seized your opportunity.'

“My lord…” Monk looked at Carmen nervously.
