Talulah, I'm still a child.

Moreover, although these two cities are very important to Ursus, the residents have suffered a lot of oppression from the garrison and nobles, and the Reunion Movement treats them more like human beings.

"Sister Froststar, Commissar Alina has given orders that we can proceed."

"Alright, tell all the commanders to begin the operation. Also, have them tie up those political commissars first. Honestly, they've all learned the wrong things from Alina."

At this point, Frostnova couldn't help but facepalm. She wondered if it was because of Alina's influence, but the political commissars of the Reunion Movement were all incredibly fierce. They were always at the forefront of battles, running incredibly fast and fighting with incredible ferocity.

In the past, it would have been fine, but this time the enemy is the Ursus Eighth Army. Although the enemy's combat power has been weakened considerably under the siege of the Reunion Movement, it is still an elite force of 30,000 men. The political commissar is a treasure of the Reunion Movement, and we cannot afford to lose him.

As the Reunification Movement gradually showed its strength, Ursus could no longer hide it. But no one expected that the Eighth Army would encounter such a situation: its elite troops were surrounded, and its supply lines and support were cut off by a sudden blizzard, turning it into a completely isolated force.

The artillery fire was deafening, even shaking the snow off the rooftops. The Third Army had no advantage in terms of timing, terrain, or manpower. The first round of artillery fire came too suddenly, and the already demoralized troops even saw some soldiers become afraid to fight under such bombardment.

But this unit was, after all, the strongest elite force of the Eighth Army Group, and it quickly reorganized its formation and adjusted its condition.

"All comrades of the Integration Movement! Follow me!"

"Warriors of Ursus! Charge!"

Talulah and the commander of the Eighth Army gave the order almost simultaneously. Just as the heavy snow stopped, the two armies clashed. A golden streak of light shot out from the Reunion Movement's ranks and crashed directly into the vanguard of the Eighth Army, sending more than a dozen people flying.

The handsome middle-aged Kuranta man, wielding a long spear and a knight's sword at his waist, charged through the enemy ranks like a golden pegasus. Patriot's spear followed, shattering the Ursus heavy armor warlock phalanx.

"It's Wendigo!"

"And there's a golden Pegasus!"

It's unclear whose voice caused a commotion in the Ursus army. They weren't afraid of either Derek, who burned everything, or the Yeti princess, but the golden Pegasus and the Wendigo were different. The former was a mortal enemy that the Ursus army could never forget, while the latter was a legend of Ursus.

Talulah snapped her fingers, and crossbow bolts and cannon fire exploded in the sky. The shieldbearers withstood the enemy's spells, while she melted away their armor with a wave of her hand.

"Something terrible has happened, Chief!"

"Have the political commissars rushed to the front lines again?"

"And the logistics department leaders and cooks are all out there with cleavers!"

This news made Talulah cover her face. How could these political commissars and logistics department heads be so reckless? And why did the cooks come too? She should talk to Alina later. The frontal battlefield is too risky. Although the cooks are trained, they can't be allowed to suffer too many losses.

It must be said that the Eighth Army was quite formidable. Even though the Reunion Movement seized the initiative and had all the advantages of timing, location, and popular support, they still couldn't take them down within the expected timeframe. The enemy commander was certainly no ordinary person, but the Reunion Movement also understood the principle of capturing the leader first. That golden pegasus from Kazimierz went into the enemy ranks alone, aiming directly at the enemy commander.

Alina punched the heavily armored, battle-hardened vanguard in front of her, sending him flying. She then charged straight towards the war sorcerers' formation. Chalk, a descendant of the Witch King, swung his cello and knocked out an enemy. He then picked up his bow and cast a spell to cover Alina. Chalk was a descendant of the Witch King and possessed considerable skill in magic.

The war sorcerers naturally noticed Alina and launched an attack on her immediately, but what they found absurd was that all of their dense spell attacks grazed past Alina. What kind of luck was that?

Far away in Kazimierz, Mei Xue twitched her fox ears, as if sensing something. She silently wished her sisters and everyone else safety, then let Viviana lead her around. Platinum followed beside her, since she couldn't just sit in her hotel room waiting for Mei Xue to return.

Moreover, the Business Federation said that all expenses during the mission would be reimbursed, making Bai Jin wish he could take Mei Xue to the city center to buy an apartment right now.

"Meixue, shall we go take a look over there?"

Viviana pointed to the knight's arena not far away, where some knights should be training now, preparing for the knight's arena competition in a few days.

"Hmm, is there anything fun?"

The little fox took a bite of the apple. He wasn't familiar with this place, but the bustling streets reminded him of the happy times he had in Lungmen. Kazimierz was no less lively than Lungmen in this respect, and even gave people a more lively feeling.

"You'll know once you go and see for yourself."

Today, Viviana was dressed casually and wearing a hood. Although it couldn't cover her big horns, she wasn't easily recognized. Besides, with Mei Xue by her side, the chances of her being discovered were greatly reduced. Passersby always noticed this cute little fox at first glance. People had been coming up to chat with her since earlier, and even a few little girls were willing to share lollipops with her.

Platinum completely shattered her previous aloof beauty image. After going shopping, she was no different from any other girl, wanting to buy everything that looked good and was fun. Moreover, she had already realized how powerful the little fox was; its tail was practically every woman's ideal shopping cart, capable of holding anything.

However, this one move alone was enough to make Bai Jin look at Mei Xue in a new light. This little fox may be a bit silly, but she is quite capable. She has never seen another Originium technique involving space, yet Mei Xue can use it with ease. This little fox must be a genius from some noble family in the Great Yan Dynasty.

What Bai Jin found most outrageous was Mei Xue's luck. Since leaving home, Mei Xue had picked up five wallets in a row. Later, the little fox thought it was too tiring to bend over and didn't pick them up, but money just floated into his hands. After buying things all night, Mei Xue's money not only didn't decrease but increased.

As the three walked and talked, Platinum would always glance at Viviana's protruding chest, then look down at her own, which was so large that you could see her toes. How could there be such a big difference between people?

"Hey Viviana, I need to talk to you about something."

Platinum quietly nudged Viviana's arm and whispered to her. After all, it wasn't appropriate to shout too loudly in the street. There were many people in Casimir named Viviana, but there was only one Elafian with that name.

"Could you tell me... how to make the fat grow where it should?"

Viviana couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle at the unspoken understanding between girls. She hadn't expected Miss Platinum to ask her such a question, especially on such a crowded street.

"I can't really answer that for you. After all, I've tried many methods before I finally found one that worked."

"What is it?"

"It's hard to say."

Viviana's gaze involuntarily drifted towards Mei Xue. A large part of the credit for her figure, which made Bai Jin and so many other girls envious, could be attributed to this little fox. After all, Mei Xue had helped out quite a bit back then, oh, and occasionally she had also spoken to her.

Platinum also noticed that Viviana's gaze was fixed on Mei Xue. Could it be that this little fox had some other idea?

"Ok?"

Mei Xue looked up at her two older sisters, not quite understanding why they were looking at her. Feeling a little embarrassed, she covered her face with her tail and took the opportunity to wipe her mouth to avoid being laughed at for her eating habits. She looked at the two of them with an innocent expression.

(I really want to rub it a couple of times)

This is what Viviana, Platinum, and even many passersby think at this moment: Mei Xue has his own cuteness, especially when he's shy. The more embarrassed he is, the more people want to tease him.

"It's nothing, let's go."

Viviana gently took Mei Xue's hand and led the little fox toward the arena, lest she linger there too long and be discovered. After all, she was a national figure in Kazimierz, and if she were discovered here, she would be surrounded.

The Great Knight Territory has many arenas, which are usually contracted out by the companies behind each knightly order for their own riders to train before the competition. Generally, these arenas are not to be seen by outsiders, but for publicity purposes, some companies do open them to the public, allowing reporters and spectators to watch their knights train in advance and build up some popularity.

However, those who do this are usually knights with some fame. Famous ones like Viviana would not allow outsiders to enter during training. But there are exceptions, such as the Blood Knight named Dikeopolis, who was the champion of the knightly arena with consecutive victories. Because of his status as an infected person, he has always been sought after by the infected in Kazimierz. In addition, he was born a commoner and was quite famous among ordinary people.

The arena where Mei Xue and the others were located was used for Blood Knights' training. Fortunately, it was evening, so there weren't too many reporters or spectators who had come to see them. Mei Xue casually found a place to sit down, while Platinum sat lazily to the side, and Viviana went to find the person in charge.

"Little friend, are you here to see the Blood Knight too?"

Just as Mei Xue was munching on an apple, a tall man sat down in the empty seat next to him. His dark skin and short white hair made Mei Xue's mind flash through a bunch of names. He had a feeling that the man was going to pull out a pair of black and white swords and say "Drowning in Ideals" or strike a cool but meaningless pose and say "Made in Heaven".

(Wait, who are Red A and Father Pucci?)

Mei Xue shook her head, dismissing these unimportant matters. Occasionally, names that she herself didn't understand would pop into the little fox's head.

"No, I just came here to play with my sisters."

Mei Xue wasn't particularly curious about the Knights' Tournament. Nearl had told him many things, such as that the Knights' Tournament wasn't as glamorous as it seemed, and that people often went bankrupt or suffered lifelong disabilities because of it. So the little fox didn't understand why Kazimierz would hold such a competition.

The uncle seemed very kind, which gave Mei Xue a good feeling. The little fox thought for a moment and took an apple out of its tail and handed it to him.

"Uncle, are you a knight too?"

"Yes, I'm a knight too, but not as famous as them. You can just call me Polis."

After realizing that the little fox didn't seem to recognize him, Boris smiled sincerely, took the apple, took a bite, and found it tasted delicious.

(Are you kidding me?)

Miss Platinum thought to herself, "Mei Xue doesn't know this person, but she knows him very well. He is currently the most popular competitive knight in all of Kazimierz, known as the Blood Knight. His fame surpasses that of Viviana. He is a hero of the infected in the Great Knights, and an idol in the hearts of countless children and infected."

However, after taking off his armor, he looked more like an ordinary middle-aged man.

"Are you from out of town?"

"Yes, Uncle, how did you know?"

"I'm just guessing. Besides, if a cute kid like you were a local, someone would definitely want to groom you into a child star."

It was a long-awaited chat. The Blood Knight had forgotten how long it had been since he had a conversation with someone like this. Many people in Kazimierz respected and admired him, but there were very few like Mei Xue who only treated him as a strange old man.

What is a child star?

"Younger celebrities tend to be more popular."

"Then forget it. The flight attendant said being a celebrity is very tiring, but Nearl said being a knight isn't easy either."

The little fox shook his head, complaining to him about the hardships of various training sessions and performances, and then took the opportunity to ask Mei Xue for the fox spirit.

Mei Xue looked rather cute hugging her tail. Seeing that he was chatting happily with the Blood Knight, Platinum decided not to disturb them. Anyway, the Blood Knight wouldn't hurt the little fox, and even if the other party really attacked, he could still run away with Mei Xue if he couldn't win.

"Sister Lin Guang?"

The Blood Knight was somewhat puzzled, but then a golden shadow appeared in his mind.

"The woman you're talking about, could it be Margaret Nearl?"

"Yes, Uncle, you know her too?"

"No, no, I don't know her. I've only heard of her. I never imagined she would be your sister."

"Hey~ I have a lot of older sisters, and they're all really amazing."

Mei Xue looked proud. Putting everything else aside, Talulah's combat power alone was enough to make him proud, not to mention Surtr and Skadi, who were of the same caliber.

After finishing her conversation with the person in charge and explaining her purpose, Viviana saw Mei Xue and the Blood Knight chatting and laughing as soon as she arrived at the audience seats. The two seats next to Mei Xue were occupied, so Viviana simply walked up to Mei Xue, hugged him, and sat down, gently patting the little fox's head.

"Lady Viviana, the Candle Knight, I never expected to meet you here."

"I'm sorry to have interrupted your training. I just brought him here to take a look."

Having both collaborated and been rivals in the past, it wasn't surprising that they knew each other. Viviana had always admired the Blood Knight's character. However, the Blood Knight never expected Viviana to treat Mei Xue so intimately. If those reporters were to take pictures of this, it would be quite a scandal.

"he is……"

"Him? The one I like."

Viviana smiled, looking very happy, and didn't seem to mind revealing her thoughts, even if it might cause her a lot of trouble tomorrow.

Ultimately, Mei Xue was already in her arms, so whether or not she became the Candle Knight wasn't that important to Viviana. She had only wanted to wait for him to come back to her. If it weren't for Platinum being there, she would have at least taken Mei Xue to get a marriage certificate.

Side Story: My Troublesome Daughters

If there's anything she regrets most in her life, it's probably not being able to kick her younger siblings aside after winning over Mei Xue and take Mei Xue to live a life of just the two of them.

Because these little guys are so annoying. They just keep bothering Mei Xue all day long, grabbing her tail or ears. They have to stick to Mei Xue's side even when eating and sleeping, as if they're afraid that Sui Ying in her dreams will eat them up. This makes it so that Mei Xue has to do everything secretly.

However, as time went by, Nian and Xi gradually found their true selves, slowly mastered their abilities, and grew quite a bit taller. At least they could no longer cling to Mei Xue's tail.

When they all grew up, Ling, without any politeness, used the excuse that "they should go down the mountain to gain experience and make a living, instead of staying at home and sponging off their parents" to kick all her good younger sisters off the mountain. As a result, only she, Mei Xue, and that peach grove remained on Qingqiu Mountain.

With no younger siblings to bother him, Ling indulged himself quite a bit throughout the year. Since he didn't need to work and had plenty of food and clothing with Mei Xue around, he lived a life that could basically be described as paradise.

During the day, you can fish, drink, and compose poetry, or stroll through the peach blossom grove. At night, you can drink and sing, enjoying the fleeting nature of life, and lean against the embrace of plum blossoms and snow, laughing as you watch the world go by. It's incredibly enjoyable!

Of course, there are always some little episodes that can't be written down, you know what I mean. Anyway, Mei Xue didn't have a single day off throughout the whole year, which led her to write the famous line, "From now on, I will never get out of bed." Well, it's definitely not because she was really sore and weak that she couldn't get out of bed.

However, even the best days eventually come to an end. Early in the morning, Ling groggily reached out and touched the spot next to him, only to find that he did not touch the familiar tail, nor did he feel the familiar satisfaction in his lower body. When Ling opened his eyes, he found that Mei Xue had already gotten up.
