In Zongman, he transformed into Fu Hua at the beginning

It's not that we must ban this kind of thing. In fact, the world is not black and white. Corrupt officials are certainly hateful, but those who are in high positions and can be selfless are more than ten times rarer than national protected animals. If you are a superior who cannot tolerate any grain of sand in your eyes and cannot tolerate any mistakes, then it can only be said that the reason you can keep sitting in your seat is either because you are lucky or you are living in a dream.

Just like Kotori's earlier shock, why would she climb to such a high position if not for personal gain? A saint? Climbing to a high position inevitably involves abusing power for personal gain, even without resorting to deceit or embezzlement. Take the most common example: a relative who cared deeply for you as a child constantly asks you to find a job for their child. Would you refuse once or twice, but ten or twenty times? That, too, counts as abusing power for personal gain.

Keeping a low profile and satisfying the greed of those below you within a reasonable range is one of the skills that people in high positions need to master.

Therefore, it is not that the title of Lady Yulandel cannot be borrowed by others, provided that... this person is worthy of borrowing this title. For example... the sisters Shiori and Kotori can use it, but these politicians cannot.

Rita thought about it, but she didn't explain it. Not only because she thought it would dirty the girl's ears, but also because... with Yulandel's integrity, she would never agree with this theory, even if this theory was a microcosm of countless realities.

"Okay, I'll be leaving first. It probably won't take long, and I'll be back tonight."

Rita adjusted her clothes again. "If you need anything, you can ask Origami. She's a native of Tiangong City. Even though she's been away for three years, she shouldn't be completely unfamiliar with the place."

"Aside from going to Shiori's house later, I don't have anything else to do. We just had a battle and achieved considerable success. I think it's best to let Origami rest a little. She fought so hard, I was even thinking about giving her a vacation. It's a perfect time for a long-awaited reunion."

Amber had no intention of causing trouble for Origami outside of work.

Hearing this, Rita curled her lips and said, "I respect your choice, but if you really want to give Origami a reward, perhaps you could give her something to do instead of a vacation, like training with her."

"No...it's called a reward...Although I think the training time is a reward, I also know that this recognition is for me."

Amber said helplessly.

After all, Yulandel has the talent to become stronger with hard work, and this talent is simply a bug if given enough time.

With such talent, training is a natural reward.

Seeing that the other party thought she was joking, Rita didn't say much. She could only sigh again that the girl had no self-awareness at all about how attractive she, the Valkyrie with the title of the strongest, was to other Valkyries.

According to Rita's understanding, that is far more terrifying than the fan circle. After all, the fan circle may collapse, but Yulandel's strength will not.

After saying goodbye to Rita, Amber had nothing to do, so she simply went back to the training room.

Although she was not interested in training, she had to attend every day for the sake of Yulandel's character.

Coincidentally, as soon as Amber arrived at the training room, she saw the girl they had just been discussing.

Tobiichi Origami.

Chapter 21 Origami Master's Attack.

"Are you still training? I remember you were approved to rest today."

Amber walked towards Origami, frowning slightly.

"I still have enough physical strength and energy to support me to continue training every day."

Origami's expression changed slightly when she saw Amber, but she remained essentially serious. "Besides, I believe being on standby at all times is a sign of high quality."

"It's also important to balance work and rest... although it's usually Rita who tells me that."

At this point, Amber laughed: "I never thought that one day I would advise others not to work too hard."

"Because of your talent, Lady Yulandel's training time is important and precious, as you can become stronger every moment."

Origami has her own understanding of training: "Ordinary people like us don't have the talent to become stronger through training, but this makes us work harder. Since those with greater talents are constantly working hard, we shouldn't stop."

"The mentality is correct, but don't ignore the objective facts."

Amber gave a more realistic answer: "I can train without any burden because of my special physique, but for you, if you imitate me, you will hurt yourself."

"...But I...I must become stronger."

Origami actually knew this truth, but she had to do something, and this thing required immense strength.

Thinking of the vague figure in the sea of ​​fire that year, the culprit who created the elves, Origami wanted to know her identity and kill her no matter what. However, considering that the other party could even create elves, her strength must be strong, at least she should have the power of an elf.

Elf-level power... She is still a long way from that level. Although wearing the Moonlight Armor made her feel much stronger, she still couldn't gain any advantage when sparring with Lieutenant Rita.

According to Lady Yulandel, Lieutenant Rita's strength is already comparable to that of the elves. As for who will win or lose, it is still uncertain and we will only know after the fight.

Amber also knew Origami's obsession with strength. In just over two years, she had risen from the bottom to the top elite team of the Undying Blade. Origami's hard work was certainly an important factor, but her talent was equally strong.

Although Origami calls himself an "ordinary person", it depends on who he is compared with. Compared with Yulandel, anyone's talent will seem not good enough.

In fact, Origami entered Tianming four years ago, spent a year laying the foundation, and then spent more than two years as an immortal blade. Her promotion speed in Tianming is simply a legendary figure. Many people say that she has the courage of Rita and is likely to become the next S-class Valkyrie like Rita's adjutant.

"Since that's the case, I can't continue to dissuade you."

Seeing Origami's serious expression, Amber showed an admiring look: "Preventing a warrior from becoming stronger may be self-serving kindness. Just focus on training. If you feel anything wrong with your body, I will help you recover."

"Recovery... Are you talking about the Black Abyss White Flower? But that..."

Origami naturally knew about Tianming, the weapon that belonged exclusively to the strongest Valkyrie.

However, that thing has rarely appeared in Yulandel's hands, and everyone thinks that Yulandel may not like that weapon very much.

"If you always think that getting hurt is okay, your combat instincts will dull, and your tolerance for erroneous attacks will increase."

Amber explained: "So I hardly ever use it, but if it is used to eliminate the side effects of training, then it is undoubtedly a good auxiliary tool."

"I see."

There is no doubt that the Black Abyss White Flower is powerful. Ordinary people may not understand why they would not use it for such an intangible shortcoming, but for Origami, there is no difficulty in understanding.

No, even if it wasn't Origami, any other Valkyrie wouldn't have any problem. After all, these were the words spoken by Yulandel. If she said so, she must have her reasons.

Because Yulandel rarely uses the Black Abyss White Flower and always appears in the training ground, the Valkyries all believe that their own strength is the most real thing, and they will only use external things when they have to.

"Since it's just the two of us today, let's spar with each other. Perhaps it can help you see your own shortcomings."

Amber invited.

"I can't ask for it!"

I have to say, Origami's long white hair and blue eyes, coupled with her previous appearance in moonlight, really made Amber have to imagine Kiana. Even if she tied her hair into twin ponytails, the similarity was almost 99%.

However, Amber has never seen what Kiana looks like in the three-dimensional world. Perhaps if she really sees her, there will be no hallucinations.

Two figures, one in yellow and one in white, kept crossing each other in the spacious training room. As time passed, the white-haired girl's body gradually became wet with sweat, and her breathing became a little heavy, while the other one still looked at ease, and it was completely impossible to tell that she had just had any exercise.

Because it was a sparring match, the fight didn't end so quickly. Every time Amber found a flaw, she would just tap it lightly, indicating that Origami had already "died" once.

Even so, Origami was sweating profusely, not just physically, but mentally as well.

She knew that her battles with Lieutenant Rita were extremely difficult, and the gap with Yulandel would definitely be even greater, but Origami had never expected the gap to be this big.

The sparring between the two now was different from before. Although they had sparred before, Rita had been fighting with all her strength. Under the dual pressure of physical fitness and magic power, it was natural that there was a huge gap. But now Origami could feel that the opponent had exerted the same strength as her.

But even in this situation, in just ten minutes, he had already "died" 400 times, which means that he died once in less than two seconds, but he didn't even touch the corner of the opponent's clothes.

"Why... is this happening? I should have an absolute advantage in terms of size."

Origami's eyes became slightly dazed, and he couldn't help but doubt his life.

Both sides have the same strength and speed, one has long arms and legs, the other has short arms and legs. Anyone should understand the advantage of longer arm span in close combat.

But why is the result such that we are powerless to fight back?

However, the other party's next words made her freeze in place.

"Because you are strong."

Amber said honestly.

“Very strong…?”

Origami thought the other party was trying to comfort her: "I didn't even have a single effective attack... am I really that strong?"

"Well... you misunderstood. It's because you are so strong that this happens."

Seeing Origami being hit so hard, Amber quickly explained, "Every move you make is powerful and precise. You've undoubtedly integrated the Valkyrie's physical skills into your muscle memory, and there's no lag in your use."

"That's impressive. It proves that you performed every move to standard specifications and maximized the advantages of each move, but... it's too rigid."

Amber was very familiar with Origami's problems, because this was exactly the same situation she was in before. Fighting with Origami was like seeing her past self.

"This is……"

Origami naturally knew that this was a very high evaluation. Following this line of thought, she understood why she lost so badly.

Because the other party is a senior who has gone further on this path, every move of mine is like an automatic puppet to the other party. When he sees this move, he knows what the next move is to be the optimal solution.

The optimal solution that I have been pursuing has become the best aid for the other party to make continuous predictions.

"But...if that's the case, I will never be able to defeat Lady Youlandel..."

This situation made Origami even more confused.

This situation can be broken by not using the Valkyrie's physical skills. However, not using them would not only go against her physical habits, but would also leave her with no moves to make. Would she have to fight purely by reaction?

"You are already stronger than Rita in combat skills. Continuing to train in this area may not lead to significant further improvement. What is more important is actual combat, physical fitness, and magical training."

Amber naturally wouldn't just ask questions without answers: "Next, try abandoning the optimal solution. While it's accurate, you're human, not a machine. Fighting mechanically can certainly unleash your full strength, but it won't allow you to defeat the strong with the weak."

"However, this kind of thing can't be solved in a day or two. It requires more combat experience. I will ask Rita for help in this regard."

"I see."

Origami naturally knew that the other party did not have that much time to spend on sparring with him, because this was no longer training, but teaching him. Whether from a rational point of view or from a personal point of view, he hoped that Yulandel would pay more attention to training than himself.

After all, Yulandel's strength is what the Valkyries are most happy to see.

"But before that, I'll leave it to Lord Yulandel today."

With a new plan to become stronger, Origami regained her enthusiasm.

"give it to me."

Amber smiled appreciatively.

Origami's eyes flickered slightly, and then she rushed towards the other party again.

Time passed quietly, and as night fell, and Origami lay on the ground, no longer able to muster any strength, Amber finally announced that today's training was over.

"Are you going out?"

The two walked out of the shower room and saw that Amber did not change into light clothes, but instead wore her usual outing clothes. Origami asked.

"Well, I originally wanted to train together while waiting for Rita to come back, but it looks like Rita will need some time."

There's naturally no need to hide this kind of thing, Amber said honestly.

Origami wasn't the talkative type, but since the person in front of her was Youlandel, she naturally paid more attention: "Are you going to buy something? Or go shopping?"

"Hmm? That's not the case... Oh, I do need to buy something."

Amber was about to say no, but she scratched the back of her head embarrassedly. "I'm going to visit a friend, and according to etiquette, I do need to bring some things with me. Usually, Rita is in charge of this. If it weren't for origami, I would have forgotten about it."

"Going to meet a friend? In Tiangong City?"

Origami tilted her head, obviously not expecting the girl to have friends here.

"It's the commander of Fraxinus, and her sister."

Amber explained: "We became friends by accident."

After saying this, Amber still felt a little uncomfortable.

If you think about it carefully, since she came to this world, it seems that no one has asked her so many questions in detail. Rita is someone who knows how to control the distance, and instead of asking questions, she is better at finding a reason to follow her and piece together the situation herself.

Black Amber knows herself so well that she knows almost everything as soon as she starts talking.

Others generally have an extraordinary love for her because of her title as the 'strongest Valkyrie', but this love actually brings a sense of distance.

Before Origami, the only person who made Amber feel close to him was probably Yakuya. Although Yui didn't feel that way either, she looked like she did because of her always calm expression and way of speaking.

If you think about it carefully, Origami seemed to have an unusually aggressive nature in the original work... Now, because the two of them had never met alone before, and Amber felt that she was not Shidao, she almost forgot about Origami's attribute.

However, he was not Shidou after all. Although Origami's brain circuits were different from those of normal people and his awareness of distance was extremely poor, he should not be aggressive towards him in any way.

"In that case, take me with you."

Just as Amber was thinking this, Origami suddenly invited her to join him.

"Ok?"

"Although the other party is a friend recognized by Lord Youlandel, he is also the commander of another force. If Lord Youlandel goes alone, it would be a loss of the dignity of the Mandate of Heaven."

Origami gave a reason, but compared to Rita's ability to find excuses, this reason was not very tenable.

"It's just a visit between friends. Although some serious matters will be discussed, they are more private in nature."

Amber said.

"Tsk..."
