Arknights, but the sickly pretty girl starts

"Isn't that even worse?!"

"No, wait, wait a minute, the Lily I'm talking about is not a human being." Harold explained hurriedly. If he couldn't explain clearly, he was afraid that his reputation would be ruined.

"People have given birth to children for you, and you still call them inhuman. I misjudged you." Rosaline originally came here to find her irresponsible father. When she saw the suspected scumbag father in front of her who seemed unwilling to admit it, she immediately felt a sense of resistance.

"No... Lily is a beast of burden!" Harold said helplessly, "Lily is her nickname. What on earth are you thinking?"

"...Pack...Pack animal?" Rosalyn's worldview was shaken. "You mean, a pack animal is going to give birth today, so..."

"Right, right, right." Harold nodded quickly. "Look, I know a little bit about medicine. As long as I'm there, the success rate of the birth will be much higher."

"I see... So, uncle, you're actually a veterinarian."

"...It's a military doctor. Tsk, although military doctors are not that good either." Harold had just corrected himself, and immediately complained to himself. After all, military doctors might be more brutal than veterinarians. After all, on the battlefield, you have to survive before you can get infected, so many times they would use rougher and faster methods to treat wounds, such as using 502 to seal the wound, or stuffing a roll of gauze into the hole when the opponent's stomach is broken and the intestines are about to flow out.

Anyway, if we really want to compare the details, military doctors essentially just want you to survive without considering your prognosis - and, many times, if you consider such things, there is no such thing as prognosis.

So when you say that a military doctor is a veterinarian, he's actually not really that angry.

"Okay, got it. You should go check on Ms. Lily. I'm fine. I can handle it on my own." Rosalyn waved her hand. "I was planning to travel alone anyway. I'm just reverting to my original plan."

"You're such a considerate girl!" Harold was deeply moved. "Come, let's exchange contact information. If you encounter any difficulties, you can always contact me. Harold is happy to help you - and your father... handsome Kjerag, right? I'll also keep an eye out for you."

"Thank you very much, uncle." Rosalyn was a typical Ursusian, rarely fussing over anything. She immediately turned around and waved, mimicking the Black Knight's gesture, and said goodbye to Harold in a cool manner. "You guys continue chatting, I'm leaving first!"

"Oh, what a good child, who just lost his mother, yet can still be so optimistic and so strong..." Harold wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes silently. When they were in the car, Rosalyn told him that she still had her mother's belongings with her. She came all the way to Kjerag to find her biological father and to fulfill her mother's last wish. What a good child she is. If it weren't for the appearance of the man in the gray hat, Harold would definitely help her all the way to the end.

Oh...it's all the fault of the gray hat!

Harold turned his head sadly, and then saw a running figure at the end of the track - at first Harold thought he was dazzled and rubbed his eyes, but it turned out that his eyesight was very good. The guy running was actually the man in the gray hat - although he jumped off the train decently, he was indeed a talented person and immediately figured out the bug. Although he couldn't be on the train, no one said he couldn't run after the train?

Although it was a bit tiring, it was work after all, and the man in the gray hat was a man who took his work very seriously.

So he followed the train all the way and finally arrived at Yinxinhu Station at this time.

"...Ah, this plague god really is always around." Harold pressed his hat down and sighed silently. But he didn't run away. Instead, he waited for the gray hat to jump onto the platform. He held his knees in front of him and panted for a while. Then he straightened his back as if nothing had happened and coughed twice. "Exercise is very helpful."

"You're truly persistent... Aren't you worried that the Black Knight will throw you onto the tracks and tie you up?"

"If she really did that, Victoria wouldn't turn a blind eye. She actually has her own restrictions," the man in the gray hat replied. "Besides, she only asked me to get off the train and didn't restrict me from running after it. I didn't break any of her rules."

"Then you truly are a genius." Harold's tone was a bit sarcastic, but Gray Hat didn't mind; he was used to it. "Mr. Harold, don't you have any thoughts about the appearance of the Black Knight, the Shining Knight, and Noah Kyrielight? Their appearance during this time is definitely not accidental."

"Of course it's not a coincidence. I guess they're here just to attend the opening ceremony," Harold quipped. "You know, Miss Noa is the Honorary Saint of Kjerag. What's so strange about her attending the opening ceremony?"

"--If it's really that simple, that would be great." The man in the gray hat said in a low voice, "By the way, where is the girl next to you--Miss Ursus?"

"Why? You like this? I remember you have a wife and daughter in Victoria, right?" Both of them were Victorians with families. The man in the gray hat was silent for a while, as if he was offended by Harold's humor. However, he had a good temper, so good that he would not get angry even if he was forced to chase a train, and he could even regard it as exercise.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just curious about why that lady came here." The man in the gray hat waved his hand. "Believe me, I won't hurt her. Just tell me what you know."

"You and I are not from the same organization. Do I need to tell you my intelligence?" Harold curled his lips and complained, "Don't make things difficult for us."

"Is that so..." The gray hat didn't say anything. "Then you wouldn't mind if I investigate the details myself?"

"..." Harold looked at the man in the gray hat, his fearless face, and cursed him inwardly for bad luck in Kjerag. "Why are you holding on to an Ursus student? I don't think she has any connection with us."

"If that's the case, what are you worried about?" The man in the gray hat shook his head. "Mr. Harold, I won't make things difficult for you. We are colleagues after all. But please don't interfere with my investigation."

The two parted on bad terms, but Harold was more thoughtful. After the man in the gray hat left, he did not leave the station in a hurry. Instead, he asked a question to the tour guide next to him.

"Which direction did the white-haired Miss Kuranta go just now?"

-

"Take a look, take a look! Special Kjerag snowflake cheese, large beast of burden figurines, and exquisite portraits of saints!"

"We have all the specialties of Kjerag!"

"The latest beast of burden blind box is on sale! Quantity is limited, welcome to buy!"

"It's really lively. The last time I came here, I felt like there weren't so many shops." Noah complained in his heart, but for Theresa, this was a completely new experience. She looked around as if it was her first time here, with a strong curiosity about everything.

"Isn't it lively? I wish Kazdel was that lively too." Theresa said with a smile, "Miss Noa, you are still the honorary saint here, right? Won't we be recognized?"

"I've only been an Honorary Saint for a short time. I'm afraid no one has even remembered it. It's unlikely..."

Before she could finish her words, Theresa was suddenly bumped into by a little child. She looked down and saw the little girl, still with a runny nose, grabbing her clothes and pointing at her, saying, "It's the Saint! I've seen the Saint's portrait."

"...What! Saint Lady?!"

"It's the Honorary Saint, you idiot! The Honorary Saint is back!"

"Is this true? The Honored Saint has returned to Kjerag!? God bless Kjerag! Yelagund!"

No...something happened.

Noah's heart sank. Why was it exposed so quickly?

Theresa turned her head and looked at some portraits sold in a shop nearby. There were several of them showing Noah's face.

—Ms. Noah, you seem to have absolutely no idea how popular you are.

Chapter 6: Missed

"Um, everyone, maybe you've got the wrong person?" Theresa didn't panic. As a demon king, she was already accustomed to being watched. She waved her hand politely. "Shouldn't the Honorary Saint you're talking about be the one with black hair?"

"Oh, yes, although they look alike, the Lady Saint's hair is black—" At this time, some people also began to notice that Noya's hair was snow-white, which was different from the Honorary Lady Saint in the portrait. Although the Honorary Lady Saint was very famous, not many people had actually seen her. After all, the Honorary Lady Saint had not been active in Shelag for a long time, and there happened to be no one here who had actually seen the Honorary Lady Saint.

"Maybe the Saint dyed her hair? Isn't that very popular in the outside world?"

"Nonsense, what are you talking about? The Saint dyed her hair. Every strand of her hair has a meaning and can keep people safe. How can she dye her hair casually?"

"Hey, I remember that my neighbor's second uncle's grandson's lover had a chance encounter with the Saint Lady, and even had a necklace blessed by the Saint Lady. How about I ask her to come over and identify it?"

"Come on, I've heard the Saint Lady has blessed hundreds, if not thousands, of things, and one or two of them are only made last week. I don't believe you."

"So... are we really mistaken? It's really not the Saint Lady? She just looks very similar?"

The people came and went quickly. After Noah's repeated explanations, they finally believed that the tourists in front of them were not Noah Kyrielight, the Honorary Saint of Kjerag. In fact, this was also because Noah used her ability to mobilize everyone's emotions. Her Originium skills were extremely useful at this time.

After the fellow villagers dispersed, Noah and the others breathed a sigh of relief. However, the risk of continuing to go out on the street without makeup was still too great. Moreover, after such a commotion, the trouble they had caused would soon reach Enthiotis's desk. Just thinking about it made one realize how wicked Enthiotis's smile would be. Noah had no choice but to quietly remind Theresa who was operating the Noah mecha.

"Why don't you find a mask or something to cover your face first—"

"I didn't expect you to be so popular." Theresa was also laughing. Although she was the one who was troubled, she felt even more sympathetic to Noah when she thought that she was just taking the blame for the legitimate Honorary Saint. "And they like you very much, which is a good thing."

"Yes...it's a good thing, indeed." Noah hesitated for a moment, "But we only came here to ask Yela to teach me how to use my power. At most, we will attend the inauguration ceremony and then leave. Instead of letting them know that I'm back, it's better not to tell them. Otherwise, I'll have to think of a way to escape later-"

"That's the price of being popular, Miss Noya."

"You're so long-winded! We're a community with a shared destiny now!" Noah complained unhappily. "Besides, you're the one causing the trouble, aren't you?"

"Okay, okay, let's not blame each other. I'll just go buy a mask and wear it." Theresa compromised. After all, if her fellow villagers really blocked her door, she would be in trouble as a shield. Following Noah's suggestion, she bought a black mask at the stall to cover her face. With her white hair, she would most likely not be recognized.

Even on the street, she had to conceal her appearance. Noya had experienced the same treatment she'd received in Casimir Margaret. Luckily, no one here had actually seen Noya before, or else she probably wouldn't have been able to fool anyone. After leaving one street, Noya and the others soon arrived at Silver Heart Lake... and just then, Noya saw a familiar figure disappear in the distance.

—Hugh Ruth? Why is she here?

Although they were acquaintances, the relationship between Xu Lusi and himself was actually quite dull, and they were even hostile for a while. Therefore, Noah did not take the initiative to ask Theresa to greet her. He was just curious when he saw her hurriedly leaving. After all, this person was Latatos's sister, and a member of the three families in the Snow Region, even the second in command of the family. The matter that could make her go out in person... was probably not a small one.

And... she just saw a small black twintail behind Xu Lusi.

"So Moshi is back with Xu Lusi... That's right, Xu Lusi is more suitable for her than that rigid science student." Noah sighed in her heart. Moshi was originally Nosis's subordinate. She was undercover beside Xu Lusi and made Xu Lusi the powder keg that detonated the Snow Mountain coup. Generally speaking, she had already been backstabbed, so it is estimated that they can no longer be sisters... But it seems that although Xu Lusi's brain is not very good, she is very tolerant.

Thinking about it this way, she and Latatos were a perfect match. One was not very smart, but was innocent and kind, while the other was smart but had difficulty trusting others. These two people were a perfect match. Noah was also very happy to see that Moshi had a master worth serving.

"...Forget it, let's not disturb them. Let's go and find Enthyotis." Noah hesitated again and again, but still did not call Moxi and turned away.

-

"What's wrong, Moshi?" Xiu Lu Si saw Moshi suddenly stop and asked curiously, "What happened?"

"No... I just..." Moshi paused and looked in the direction where Noah and the others were. She always felt like she had missed something, but she didn't see anything. She could only shake her head and said, "I just felt like someone was looking at me."

"Oh..." Xu Ruth suddenly dragged out her words, holding the girl's face and looking at her carefully: "Our Moshi is so beautiful, it's not surprising that she has admirers! Next time if you really meet someone you like, you must bring her to me for screening. After all -"

Her tone suddenly lowered, "After all, Mo Xi is my good sister, and she can't be kidnapped by some brat!"

"Lord Xu Lu Si, you are too polite..." Mo Xi smiled. It was indeed reassuring to be around Lord Xu Lu Si, but she always remembered the girl who saved her that day. The girl understood Lord Nosis's plan with just a few words, and then helped her analyze the situation, and came to the conclusion that she didn't need to die for Enthyodis' plan.

At that time, she was determined to die and even betrayed Lady Xu Lusi, the only person who could take her in. She was so conflicted that she wished she could die in the Holy Hunt.

But maybe it was because of her words, or the sincerity in her words, Mo Xi chose to believe this girl. When the other party proposed to cooperate, no matter from which angle, she became Mo Xi's salvation.

She remembered how Nosis had used her as a pawn and deceived her.

It was because of the betrayal by her beloved that Moshi was completely at a loss at the time. At this time, Noah guided her on what to do, or in other words, became her new pillar. Therefore, although it was only a brief meeting, Moshi remembered this girl, this smart and kind girl.

...I don't know where Lord Noah is now...Is he still making the same decisions as before, knowing that there will be many hardships, but still making the same decisions?

It would be nice if we could meet again...

Mo Xi didn't know that she had already passed by Noah.

-

"Look, look, look! Special Kjerag snowflake cheese, large beast of burden figurines, exquisite portraits of saints!" the specialty vendors shouted, their voices echoing through the streets and alleys, competing with the vendors selling blind boxes nearby. "We have all the specialties of Kjerag!"

"The latest beast of burden blind box is on sale! The quantity is limited, welcome to buy!" The shouting here one after another even has a rhythm.

"clang--"

Between the clatter of camel bells, merchants banged their gongs, their knuckles brushing against the shelves of jewellery, tracing arcs over bronze jars steaming with the aroma of spices. "This frost-crystal Kjerag blue cheese, a lick of it will turn your tongue into a snowfield!"

"Sandalwood carved beast of burden, please return home and bring back a mountain of silver for your master!"

"Don't miss it if you pass by——"

"Buy this painting of the Saint's true face, drawn with star sand mixed with silver powder, and hang it above your bed. It guarantees sweet dreams every night!"

"Wow, what a bustling scene!" Rosalin had never seen anything like this before. In Ursus, such hawking was indeed rare, not to mention that these items seemed novel to her. "Let me see, what are they selling... What's this portrait of the Saint like? Miss Hatsuyuki doesn't look like this... Wait, this doesn't look like Miss Hatsuyuki either?"

"Hey, little girl, how can you say that? This portrait was personally reviewed by our Saint, guaranteed to be authentic!" The merchant was dissatisfied. Was this someone trying to ruin the party? "Besides, we have two Saints in Kjerag. This is Miss Enya, it's Miss Noya!"

"...Noah...this doesn't look like it!" Rosaline had seen Noah's appearance when she was in Rhodes Island, and she looked different from this black-haired girl.

"Hey, you little girl, are you messing up the place?!"

"No...ah, forget it. Boss, give me some snowflake cheese, is that the hottest specialty right now?" Rosalyn wanted to correct him, but it seemed pointless. After all, artistic creation wasn't something that seemed normal. "Maybe I actually ate it as a kid..."

"Hey, little sister, you are from Kjerag too?" The boss, who was originally a little dissatisfied, changed his expression when he heard this.

"Is that so?" Rosalyn is half Kjerag, so she is indeed a Kjerag.

"Well, why didn't you tell me earlier? Then don't buy that." The boss immediately waved his hand. "That's for foreign tourists. We don't need that! I'll give you some of this shredded cheese. It tastes good. Just eat this! Foreigners only buy the hardcover edition. We all eat these scraps."

“…Oh, are you trying to trick outsiders?”

"How can you say that? Look at this snowflake cheese, little sister! Look at the packaging. It's so beautiful and tasteful. Tourists buy local specialties, don't they just want something high-end and classy?" the boss said righteously. "I'm just making a little extra money from the packaging. I'm not selling inferior goods as good ones. The taste of the cheese is guaranteed!"

"That makes sense." Rosalyn thought about it carefully, and it seemed to make sense. Besides, she wasn't here to criticize the boss; that was the job of the market administration. So she spoke up. "Then give me some of this shredded cheese. By the way, boss, I have something to ask you."

He scooped up the shredded cheese and put it into an oil-paper bag. The crumbs fell onto the counter. He answered Rosalyn's questions while packing.

"What's the matter, little sister? I won't brag about anything else. I know everything about this place—"

"That's perfect...are there any men in Kjerag who are universally considered handsome?" Rosalin remembered her mother's assurance that her father was the most handsome man in all of Kjerag. While that was probably a bit of an artistic interpretation, she still trusted her mother's judgment. He should be a handsome man, right?

"Handsome man?" The boss touched his chin, wiping his milk-stained apron across the counter. He suddenly lowered his voice, "As for the universally recognized—" He gestured with his thumb in a certain direction, "Master Ensiodis of the Kalan Trading Company. During the tea parties of the three major families, young ladies and wives would squeeze in just to catch a glimpse of him."

"Pfft—" Rosaline choked on the cheese shreds and slammed her hand on the counter. "Enthyodis... uh, SilverGray?! You mean SilverGray?"

"Yes, that's the head of the Shivaash family." The boss nodded, looking like he understood. "If you want to talk about handsome men, this is definitely him."

"Impossible. Yes, absolutely impossible!" Rosalyn quickly shook her head, "Boss, change another one."

"...Then..." The boss seemed to want to find a handsome guy, but Rosalyn changed her mind and thought that asking here would probably not give her any answers. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. I just asked casually. Just treat it as a joke."

"I want to ask you something special about that mountain next to Silver Heart Lake." Rosalyn pointed in the direction of the mountain. "That one over there. What's the story behind it?"

"Oh! That's Mount Fogen!" The boss was quite knowledgeable about this area. After all, he was a businessman near a tourist attraction. He knew a lot about this kind of money-making business, if not everything. "It's a famous place for love in our area. Young couples love to go there."

"...young lovers..." Rosalyn's teeth began to ache.

"What kind of slogans are they using now? Ugh, something like 'Watch the sunrise together and we'll be together forever' or 'Love to Kjerag is as strong as ice'? Tsk, tsk, so corny," the merchant added. "A lot of tourists love going up there, hanging golden lockets as proof of their love... Oh, by the way! I heard Master Axtos really enjoys hunting in the mountains, and he's been disturbed by tourists several times, and he's really upset!"

"Okay... I got it. Thanks, boss. Here's the money for the cheese." Rosalyn nodded and put the money in her hand on the counter. Seeing that the deal was done, the boss's face was also full of smiles.

"Thank you for your patronage, little sister~"

Chapter 7: Miracle for You

As expected, after Noah and the others entered Kjerag, Enthiotis quickly got the news. There was nothing he could do, after all, Noah and the others had no intention of hiding it. The news that Noah was recognized on the street also appeared on his desk early on. However, the president was more concerned about the report next to it - about the actions of the Gray Hat.
