Miss White Wolf's Terra Travel Journal

"…In terms of blood relationship, he is my brother."

Miss Hatsuyuki's answer was a bit strange. Why did she emphasize kinship? Well, it's not important.

She continued, "Are they siblings?"

"Brother and sister."

After Miss Hatsuyuki finished speaking, she took out the silver-gray photo again, held it up and placed it on the right side of her cheek: "Take a look, don't we look alike, eye and hair color?"

Miss White Wolf looked at the photo, then at Chuxue, and thought of her previous strange thoughts. Her face suddenly turned red and she nodded: "Yes, they are similar. I'm sorry, I misunderstood just now."

"Misunderstand?"

"I thought……"

Oh, shut up. What are you going to say? This is a very dangerous topic. Bah, bah, bah, you can’t talk about it.

Miss Bailang tried to change the subject in a panic, but when she raised her eyes accidentally, she saw Miss Chuxue coming towards her with a curious look on her face, and her inner tension became even more severe.

Her mind raced as she thought of something that might attract the other person's attention, so she blurted out, "By the way, you just said you wanted to introduce your brother to me?"

Chu Xue was embarrassed to bring up the matter directly, but when she saw Miss Olicia taking the initiative to speak, she was immediately delighted and nodded hastily: "Yes, yes, what do you think? I just had this idea suddenly. Brother is not bad, isn't he?"

It’s not bad, Miss White Wolf lowered her head and thought, from a normal person’s perspective, he must be good, even Xiaota has an impression of him…

When she thought of Xiaota, her mind reappeared on her nervous look. Xiaota seemed to be most afraid of men approaching her. She wondered what would happen if she teased him about this matter.

The thought of playing a prank only lasted for a moment, and her main focus was on how to answer Miss Hatsuyuki's current question.

Rejection is certain.

If there had not been that conversation before, she would have just spoken directly. Unfortunately, due to a misunderstanding, she cooperated with Miss Hatsuyuki to talk a lot about Enchiodis, which probably led to some wrong expectations on the other party.

In this case, it is best to explain it first to appear more normal and avoid the other party thinking that you are prejudiced against the Kjerag people.

In addition, this explanation needs to be strong enough to allow Miss Hatsuyuki to completely let go of her current thoughts and prevent unnecessary things from happening in the future.

She thought about how to explain it. It was very simple. She just needed to be honest and tell the truth about her situation. Throughout the history of Terra, only the ancient Yan Kingdom and Leitania had set up certain gender taboos. The material basis for this was due to population shortage. Today, people have long been accustomed to similar things.

Miss Bailang took a deep breath and was about to speak when she suddenly noticed that Miss Chuxue was staring at her with her big eyes.

She felt her cheeks quickly getting hot. Why was Miss Hatsuyuki staring at her like that? After all, it was very awkward to say that kind of thing under the close gaze of a girl.

In fact, Miss Hatsuyuki didn't have the habit of staring at others. It was because she couldn't bear to take her eyes away. She had always had little resistance to beautiful things, and Miss Olicia with a blushing face had a kind of addictive temptation.

Hatsuyuki was a very polite girl. She quickly realized that her gaze made Miss Olicia feel uncomfortable, so she immediately looked elsewhere without leaving a trace.

Bai Lang noticed that the other party's eyes had shifted away, so he seized the opportunity and said in a weak and somewhat hurried voice, "Yes, it's like this, I don't have the habit of liking boys."

"You don't have the habit of...liking boys...?"

Miss Hatsuyuki repeated it blankly, and suddenly understood the meaning.

She might not be clear about many things in the outside world, but she really understood this one thing. Since her brother had studied abroad at a national university and there were many Victorian merchants among the main partners of Kalan Trade, she had studied the customs and practices of that country in the past two years.

Anyone who tries to understand Victoria will not ignore the romance of that land. Humans seem to be born to like things that are a bit bizarre and decadent, and get a tacit and unique happiness from them.

Hatsuyuki also understood why Miss Olicia was so unnatural, why she blushed, and why she hesitated.

What happened to her brother seemed impossible, she thought, but strangely, she found that she did not feel the slightest bit of pity for her brother. The strong curiosity and excitement quickly went straight to her entire brain, making her feel a little breathless.

If Miss Hatsuyuki was the kind of girl who was completely focused on personal pleasure, she would most likely take the opportunity to try to satisfy her curiosity, but she was not, or rather, she was not just that, she had more considerations.

After her initial surprise, she immediately suppressed her strange feelings and began to think about serious practical issues.

She realized that she had unconsciously and semi-forced Miss Olicia to say something she might not want to say.

This is definitely a diplomatic taboo. What Miss Olicia needs most right now is comfort, just like when outsiders laughed at Shelagh's beliefs, Miss Olicia stood by her side without hesitation.

"It's normal, nothing at all." Chu Xue said calmly, with her right hand behind her back, tightly grasping the corner of her clothes, not knowing whether it was because of excitement or something else.

"Well……"

"My brother once studied abroad in Victoria. I'm used to seeing him and Nosis inseparable every day..."

and many more?

Brother and Nosis?

Miss Hatsuyuki was speaking completely casually, but her lips trembled slightly when she realized what she was saying. Why hadn't she thought of it before?

Chapter 2023: Corruption and Newness 04-06-12 00:02:

Miss White Wolf knew Nosis. The intelligence provided by the Marquis specifically talked about this important person. It was said that he had studied in many countries and made great contributions to the industrialization process of Kjerag.

If this person has a close relationship with Enthiotis, should I consider a response plan in advance?

She suddenly heard Chuxue ask nervously: "Ms. Olicia, you are more familiar with Victoria, right?"

"Well, it is."

"Then you know the kind of guy who doesn't like girls."

Miss White Wolf quickly understood what the other party meant and nodded, "Yes, there are probably quite a few people, because the famous Sun King has a special relationship with his male military advisor, who is the lord of Victoria's revival."

Miss Hatsuyuki's face began to turn pale: "Are you sure?"

"Of course, everyone in Victoria knows about it. The bards even adapted it into a ballad and sang it everywhere. Uh, Miss Hatsuyuki, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Chu Xue patted her chest, took a deep breath, and made up her mind that she must observe carefully to see if there is any problem between her brother and that Nosis.

What should I do if there is a problem? Well, it gives me a headache. I don’t want to think about it anymore.

Hatsuyuki tried hard to control her thoughts, but she kept thinking about her brother. Until she tried to look at Miss Olicia with her eyes, she found that there was soon only one person left in her eyes.

She didn't know what was going on, but after knowing that the other person liked girls, she felt a strange itchy feeling in her heart. She found that the other person seemed to be more beautiful, and exuded a comfortable fragrance, so she gently moved her position and sat a little closer.

"Ms. Olicia, you were so sure just now, is it because you have someone you like?"

"Well, I think so."

Seeing the other party nod, Chuxue felt a little regretful and a little depressed for no reason. She soon realized that her sadness was unreasonable.

What's there to be sad about? I'm not that kind of person.

Her mind was once again occupied by intense curiosity. She had lived in Kjerag since she was a child. After becoming a saint, she spent most of her time alone. She was exposed to too few new things, and the things in books were completely unable to comfort the boring life itself.

She knew that continuing to ask might be considered impolite, but she just couldn't control herself. She clenched and unclenched her hands, and the nervousness and the excitement that never subsided made her palms wet all the time.

"Oh, Miss Olicia, can I ask..." Her eyes flickered with uneasy light, "Why do you like girls?"

Before she got an answer, she blushed and explained eagerly: "I know, I know, my question is weird and hard to answer. I just want to hear your most direct feelings, just a little bit."

There is no doubt that Miss White Wolf was very afraid of this kind of question, but Miss Hatsuyuki showed her nervousness and shyness first, which made her less nervous and allowed her to think of an answer a little more.

She thought about it for a moment, then tentatively and cautiously said, "Maybe it's because girls are cuter and there's no pressure to get along with them?"

Hatsuyuki opened her eyes wide: "Is that all?"

"seems like it."

"Is there anything else, like, girls are prettier, more gentle or something like that."

"Well, maybe, maybe, yes."

Miss Bailang lowered her head and thought, while Chuxue did not speak, her eyes uncontrollably staring at each other without blinking.

That's absolutely right, Chuxue thought to herself, it's really cute, just shaking her ears or wrinkling her small nose, it makes people's hearts melt. Why do girls have to be so attractive?

She had seen beautiful girls from Shelagh before, but she always felt that they did not leave a real impression in her heart. Miss Olicia was completely different. She seemed to be fascinated by her.

Was it because he had never been in such close contact with other people? Or was it because Miss Olicia was a foreigner, a young and beautiful foreigner who exuded a fresh atmosphere?

Fresh breath! ?

Yes, everything about Miss Olivia is new.

Was she already rotten? She was obviously very young. She remembered what her brother had said: Kjerag's conservatives were like zombies in a dark cemetery, with a bright appearance, but they smelled of moss and rust.

Is she the kind of person who is decaying but desperately longing for fresh air?

Miss White Wolf made a move, which immediately attracted Chuxue's attention again.

She saw the other person raise his head, with a hint of confusion in his dark eyes. His slender white fingers scratched his hair and he said softly, "I can't give a specific answer. It seems to be a feeling. Anyway, the result is like this. I think it's better to accept it calmly. Do you want to hear the opinions of Victorian scholars?"

"Victorian scholar?"

“Yes, Victorian academics have done extensive research on similar issues.”

"I want to listen." Chu Xue changed her posture, put her tail in her arms, and kept her eyes fixed on Miss White Wolf.

"Their academic program begins with criticism, starting with the ancient Yan State. They believe that the rulers of the ancient Yan State used the 'human ethics and natural principles' proposed by the saints to stifle the emotions that ordinary people should have. On the surface, the purpose of the ancient Yan State was to create a so-called unchangeable order, but this order was not based on 'caring for the people' as the saints said, but was purely for the purpose of gaining political benefits."

"The second criticism is from the Leitanian school of psychology. They even call it pseudoscience. Two hundred years ago in Leitania, all 'abnormal' gender relations would be labeled as mental illness and must be treated and corrected by specialists."

"The third criticism is from Victoria herself. They believe that the ancient Victorians placed too much emphasis on male-male relationships. Some ancient scholars even advocated that all young men should hate women and walk enthusiastically with their male elders."

Miss Hatsuyuki covered her mouth and let out an exclamation that was almost admiration.

"Go on," she said with a blushing face, her bright eyes sparkling with a strange light.

"Victorian scholars believe that this advocacy has a long-lasting legacy and that the feelings between people should be natural and should not be deliberately induced by the outside world."

Chuxue's mind flashed back to her brother's image, and she couldn't help but ask, "You said before that the Sun King and his military advisor were also misled?"

"No, Victorian scholars admire the deeds of the Sun King. They believe that the king and the military advisor worked together to help a huge empire escape crisis and allow tens of millions of civilians to live in peace. The relationship between the king and the military advisor was undoubtedly formed naturally over a long period of time. It is pure and noble, far beyond the narrow vision of Yanguo's Taoist scholars."

Chapter 2023 Spirituality 04-07-12 00:03:

Bai Lang didn't know how much waves her words had caused in Miss Chuxue's heart.

It is no exaggeration to say that Miss Hatsuyuki has since firmly believed that she has figured out many of the unsolved mysteries that happened to her brother.

For example, why was the elder brother willing to trust Nosis so much and give the important task directly to him?

Why is it that when all three major families hate Nosis, only the elder brother goes against the crowd and protects him?

Why do so many wealthy girls in Victoria like their brothers, but their brothers ignore them?

Why, after returning from his studies, my brother always inadvertently expressed his admiration for Victorian culture.

Everything happens for a reason, she thought.

But the strange thing was that after hearing so much from Miss Olicia, her original worries about her brother's personal relationships actually faded.

She couldn't help thinking: It doesn't seem to be a problem. Isn't Kjerag marching forward under the leadership of his brother and Nosis? Isn't Nosis a qualified "military advisor"?

Was my previous worry and nervousness because I was too traditional, too decadent, and too focused on superficial things? Aren’t Kjerag’s future and the happiness of ordinary people more important?

The scene of her brother arguing with the Council of Elders and the sarcastic smile on the other party's lips emerged in her mind again. That was not a sneer, it was clearly a fight against all that was rotten and corrupt. Her brother was always the one who walked in the front.

Chu Xue felt that her mind suddenly became open and relieved.

Yes, what does it matter if my brother has a real relationship with Nosis? In fact, I don't need to be nervous, but I should send my blessings sincerely. If my brother likes to keep a low profile, then it would be reasonable to send blessings in private.

……

At this moment, SilverAsh, who was in the north of Kjerag, had an inexplicable urge to sneeze.

"What's wrong?" Nosis, who was standing in the snow to survey the terrain, adjusted the legs of his glasses.

"Nothing." Silver Gray faced the cold wind and tightened his coat. "How long do you think it will take to deal with it?"

"Two days at most. We can go back earlier than originally planned."

Silver Gray frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "I have a feeling that it is not appropriate to let Enya have direct contact with Miss Lovehild. She is not an ordinary person."

"I don't think so." Nosis opened the blueprint and carefully sketched on it with a pencil. "In the past two years, the Saint Lady has changed. In my opinion, you can just rest assured."

SilverAsh nodded silently. Nosis was right. Since the incident two years ago, Enya's performance had become more and more reassuring, but why did he always feel uneasy?

……

In the business room behind the board of directors, the two young girls continued their communication.

Perhaps the topic was too "stimulating" so that Chuxue was immersed in excitement and couldn't stop, while Miss Bailang habitually entered an objective research state and had not yet realized that she was discussing strange things with the sister of the chairman of Kalan Trading.

"Victorian scholars believe," she said seriously, "that the decadent aristocrats of later generations tainted that feeling. They only valued sensual enjoyment. Their real purpose was obviously animalistic physical desires, but they had to quote scriptures and use noble emotions to whitewash it. They were the dirtiest prostitutes, and they also caused others to misunderstand that feeling."

Chu Xue nodded in agreement and said, "I suddenly had an idea. Can that kind of emotion be completely spiritual, like the relationship between humans and gods? If we completely put aside physical contact, wouldn't it avoid a lot of problems?"

"Yes, you are talking about the view of spiritualism, which is a very important academic school. In fact, there are still a large number of scholars in Victoria who advocate pure spiritual connection, but it seems that not many people can achieve it."

"Why not more? I think it's good this way. It guarantees the feelings and avoids vulgarity."
