"I will definitely be...the best!"

Shitana took a step back and stepped into the teleportation array. The moment she waved to Anser, her figure disappeared.

Anser stood in front of the teleportation array for about three or four seconds, then he exhaled lightly and turned to walk into the manor.

A black feather fell from the sky at the right time. Anser didn't look at it, but pinched the feather with two fingers, and a satisfied smile gradually appeared on his face.

"Are you all set? Very good."

The feathers that were casually thrown away disappeared like melting snow. At the same time, the iron-gray particles condensed into the figure of a petite scholar - sixty centimeters tall.

Ming Fuluo sat lightly on Ansher's shoulder, reading a book without raising her head: "Sent her away?"

"Well, you're still thinking about regretting before you leave." Anser smiled.

"Hmph... That's not her style. She's just looking for an excuse to rub you a few more times."

Ming Fuluo sneered and pushed her glasses: "Forget it, let's not talk about her. I have also prepared what you want, but to be honest..."

The woman paused for a moment, then turned to look at Anser and said seriously, "I don't think it's a good idea for you to leave Hydra Territory at this time."

"Changing one's appearance and planning to act in the West under the identity of 'Faust' is not a good choice either."

"Why?" Ansel asked with a smile.

The road back to the manor building was not short, and Ansel had plenty of ways to go back directly, but he enjoyed the feeling of walking with Ming Furo, chatting, exchanging opinions, discussing endlessly, and even confronting each other along the way.

"...Without the protection of Lord Flamel, the influence of fate has already increased to countless possibilities."

Ming Fuluo said seriously, "If you temporarily put aside your identity as Hydra... I can't imagine how much trouble He will use this opportunity to create for you."

"Well... the worst that can happen is that my identity will be exposed?"

"Expose your identity? Then let all the Grand Dukes know what you are secretly planning to do in the West Country? Let them all focus their attention here, making it even more difficult for you to move forward?"

Ming Fuluo pinched Anser's cheek and said expressionlessly: "If you want to make me angry, then you succeeded, Anser."

"You usually kick me in the face."

"...Humph, I won't let you get away with it again."

"I don't have that kind of fetish."

"No talent... Don't interrupt! What do you want?"

Miss Ming Fuluo, who is 60 cm tall, kicked Ansel's face angrily. This time, she was not wearing black or white stockings, but barefoot.

"Then do you think that it is the right choice for me to invade the Western Country openly?" Ansher asked back.

"What invasion? Just leave the matter to Shadow Marsh. You stay in Hydra Territory and work with me to expand your influence as much as possible in a short period of time."

Anser sighed, "You know what I want to do in the West Country, Luo."

"Find Ivora, the unstable factor. I must find him alive or dead." Ming Fuluo said without hesitation, "You don't need to tell me. I can guess it. It's not difficult."

"Look, since you already know everything." Anser spread his hands, "Why are you still trying to stop me?"

"because of you--"

Ming Fuluo's voice subconsciously rose, but her words suddenly stopped. After two or three seconds, she said in a slightly lower voice:

"Because you will be in danger... He will definitely take advantage of this opportunity. And what I can do... is really limited."

Ming Fuluo leaned on Anser's head, lowered her eyes and murmured weakly:

"It would be great if I could really become a deus ex machina."

It takes a long time to build the fantasy weapon and deploy its power. The reason why he was able to fight like that in the battle with the Emperor was purely because Effisand never took the Deus Ex Machina seriously from beginning to end.

And every appearance of the deus ex machina is a big burden for Ming Furo - in order to realize her fantasy armament, she abandons her physical body and falls into the abyss. She is no longer a transcendent being walking on the road to heaven.

Every time she transformed herself into a mechanical deity, every time she used the power of the Head of the Abyss to manipulate the endless elements, for Ming Furo, it meant falling deeper into the abyss.

And Ansel would not watch her sacrifice herself like this. Ming Furo was sure that this little devil, who had obviously become a lot better but was still stubborn enough to give people a headache in some aspects, would never allow herself to be transformed into a mechanical deity again until the moment of death.

Although in most of the time, Ming Furo can handle all problems - but in the same way, in most of the time, Ansher can also handle all problems himself.

Otherwise, why would Xitana leave Anser and look for an opportunity? Neither she nor Ming Fuluo had the ability to play a key role at any time in a truly high-intensity battle.

"So in the end." Anser half-closed his eyes, enjoying the warmth on his cheeks, "It's just because you're worried about me, right."

"Yes, I am worried about you. Are you satisfied?"

Miss Ming Fuluo answered unhappily, but her posture was still leaning against Ansel's head.

"Then your worry is unnecessary, Luo."

Gleipnir tapped the ground lightly, and a pitch-black chain blade appeared, flashing a dazzling edge in the sunlight.

"The head of strength, the head of wind, the head of the abyss... more or less, I have one third of the power."

The young Hydra held the hilt of the sword and lightly slashed it towards the sky.

In a square not far away, among a group of children playing, someone pointed to the sky and exclaimed:

"Cloud! The cloud has split into two pieces!"

"... Eh, no, it seems like there are more than two?"

Anser, who had transformed Gleipnir back into a walking stick, chuckled:

"Guess how strong I am now?"

Ming Fuluo looked up at the large cloud that was shredded by the "sword" and gently patted Anser's cheek: "You really know how to show off."

"anything else?"

"…What else? Now that you've said that, can I still stop you?"

The woman complained in a low voice: "I thought that after solving your problem, I could concentrate on my research... but I have to go to a place like the Western Country with you. What a hassle."

"Let me make it clear in advance." Anser raised his hand, "I didn't force you to follow me, Luo."

The tiny Miss Ming Fuluo bit Ansher's cheek with her tiny lips and said coldly, "Then take off your bracelet and get out of here."

The young nobleman looked embarrassed: "This is a bit..."

"Then shut up and take me with you." The scholar lady, who was small but still very strong, interrupted Anser.

"Yes, yes, dear A Luo."

"Don't be so frivolous!"

"Uh...my favorite Luo?"

"Don't lie!"

"Then add a one."

"…You'd better die, Anser."

Ansher laughed happily. Ming Furo, who was not happy at all, looked at his smiling face and kicked Ansher with her bare feet even more unhappily, but the corners of her mouth raised slightly in an imperceptible arc.

At the same time, another black feather slowly fell from the sky.

Anser, who caught the feather, showed a look of surprise at first, then the smile on his face became brighter and his laughter became more hearty.

"What's going on?" Ming Fuluo looked at the disappearing Hei Yu, "Your agents seem to be very busy?"

"Rhine has located Xi'er's teleportation point. But... it was the raven that sent the message instead of Rhine? This is really... hehe, interesting."

Ansher chuckled twice, not knowing what he was thinking of.

Just as he expected, Shitana actually had no destination at all, so her teleportation was purely random - of course, she teleported to a place with a teleportation point, not to some deep mountains or forests.

"Guess..." Anser blinked, "Where is she?"

"…Your expression."

Ming Fuluo rubbed her temples: "Do I need to guess? But if she was teleported to the West by chance, could it be..."

Without having to say the whole thing, Anser could understand the meaning just like her.

"Still worried?" Anser raised his eyebrows slightly. "Even if you are not confident in yourself, you must be confident in me, Luo."

"you really--"

Ming Furo opened her mouth, looked at Ansel's handsome and energetic face, and finally couldn't help laughing.

"It's really hard to say good things, but it doesn't matter."

She kissed Ansel's cheek and said softly:

"That's the kind of boy I like."

"Um...am I still a boy?"

"In my eyes, it always will be."

"This is really... a heart-warming confession." Anser smiled, "Okay, then we'll go pick up one more person and then we can get ready to go."

Ming Fuluo, who was in a good mood, was slightly stunned and asked suspiciously: "To pick someone up? Who?"

The young Hydra raised his lips:

"A nice girl with great ambition."

Chapter 7: The obedient and well-behaved country girl (K)

"The West Country...why is it in the West Country?"

Rhine paced back and forth on the desk, and his cute cat face looked a little annoyed at the moment.

Ms. Cat had considered the possibility that Shitana was randomly teleported to the Western Kingdom, but according to the current chaotic situation in the Western Kingdom, many teleportation points in the territories were only open for a certain direction, or even directly closed to response... She even asked someone to check, and the Western Kingdom currently has the fewest fully open teleportation points in the entire empire. Why could Shitana be randomly teleported there?

Since the possibility of being teleported to the West Country was very low, and in order to avoid causing Ansel's dislike for his own clever behavior, Rhine, after weighing the pros and cons, gave up on letting Marina become Ansel's accompanying secretary.

But in the end, this troublesome lone wolf lady still ran to the Western Country, which was very disadvantageous to it...

"Mr. Anser is unlikely to take the initiative to contact Xitana, but if he does..."

Rhine murmured in a low voice, and his beautiful emerald cat eyes showed a gloomy and cold light.

If they encounter it, the Shadow Swamp will come up and entangle them in an unclear way... The dead bird hiding in the shadow is just like it and will not miss any opportunity.

The situation in the West Country is so chaotic and turbulent that most members of Shadow Swamp are currently wandering around the West Country. Due to their different styles of doing things, if they want, they can help Shitana in a more direct way and deal with Shitana's traces - first come first served, this is the unwritten rule in the Garden and Shadow Swamp.

"Tsk, is it too late to recommend Marina now? In this emergency situation... Lord Anser may agree, and this is just the right time."

It grunted and jumped off the desk, passed through the door that opened automatically, and jumped casually onto the nearest table by the door.

"Bones, Layal, Graystone, Flowing Fire... the four of you must prepare and arrive at Miss Sitana's teleportation point within five hours and prepare to start your work."

"……what?"

A young woman not far away looked up at Rhine and said, "Didn't the original plan only require two people? Although I don't have any important tasks in Donggang... but it's not a good idea to transfer me at short notice, ma'am."

She pulled the corners of her mouth and actually showed a somewhat provocative smile: "Why did Miss Xitana need you to go to such great lengths to add two extra people when she was teleported to the Western Country? Do you want to prevent Shadow Swamp from taking advantage of the opportunity to steal the credit?"

"That's a pity, ma'am." The woman spread her hands. "There's no reason for me to bother fighting for your interests... You have to know that I am loyal to Lord Anser, not you."

The originally quiet and harmonious office suddenly became tense. Rhine's emerald cat's eyes slowly shrank, and the beastly savagery spread, along with a sense of threat that made people's hair stand on end.

But the young woman still looked fearless, just raised her chin and stared at Rhine.

The two persons in charge of the Garden and Shadow Swamp are both rare animals with extraordinary abilities. It is not because Anser has any special hobby of raising small animals, but because animals are most suitable for the Devourer Chief. At the same time... the Devourer Chief's ability to devour others and use them for his own benefit is in turn very suitable for the position of "spy chief".

Although the people in the garden had different ambitions, most of them still longed for that position, because it not only represented power and authority, but also the recognition of those they followed and represented supreme glory.

So... among these outstanding talents selected by Anser, how many would watch one of the extremely precious spots fall into the hands of others?

The young woman's response was very tough, even to the point of being hostile, but her reason was completely impeccable - there was no more convincing reason than "I am loyal to Lord Anser."

Temporarily changing the original plan and forcibly adding more manpower to the task of carrying out the aftermath work for Xitana... Isn't this destroying the important task entrusted by Lord Anser in order to pursue one's own interests?

Of course, even if loyalty is put aside, Rhine is not such a short-sighted stupid cat. In addition, due to his loyalty to Anser, it is absolutely impossible for him to do anything that would affect the arrangements in Donggang.

"I will take over your mission." Rhine said coldly, "Before you say such things, think about whether I am such a narrow-minded fool, Liuhuo."

The two people assigned to be responsible for the aftermath of Xitana were insignificant in the deployment of Donggang and had no impact on the overall plan. Under normal circumstances, no one would say anything about this kind of deployment, but at this time... the meaning was obviously different.

"Oh? So you agree that your personnel transfer this time is for your own benefit?"

Liuhuo pulled the corner of his mouth, appearing sharp.

But upon hearing these words, Rhine couldn't help but burst into laughter. The laughter was very pleasant to the ear with the mature female voice, but the condescending meaning was so obvious.
