GR 51-75

Chapter 51: Killing

"Well... Mother Aponia is very gentle and kind to me. But she might be a little scary when she's angry?"

As she spoke, a pair of dark, dull scarlet eyes appeared in Griseo's mind...

However, even in Griseo's memory, Aponia was rarely seen angry, not only because she had a good temper but also because she would often avoid Griseo.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as when the little girl wants to do something unhealthy, like not sleeping or eating well... there is a chance she will see Aponia's red eyes.

Leos, who was standing by, touched his chin after hearing this and asked thoughtfully, "So that's the case, then it seems your family is pretty good, little Griseo. But why didn't anyone come to see you? Didn't they know you were here?"

This was a question he had been curious about for some time. The little girl told them in detail about several of her family members, such as Aunt Mobius, the soft sister Sakura, and Kosma.

However, when talking about Kosma, both Leos and the others had somewhat strange expressions.

If the two Yetis only knew the reason why Griseo was barefoot before, they had a strange impression of Kosma.

Then, after listening to the little loli's description just now, they all felt that this person was a bit...

Of course, apart from this, Leos and the others could also feel from Griseo's words that these people were good to her. But because of this, they had such doubts...

"Well, maybe they don't know I'm back, and they are still very busy."

Faced with Leos's question, Griseo thought about it for a while and gave an answer.

After Griseo's answer, the atmosphere between the few people suddenly began to solidify, but Lois quickly reacted.

Then he leaned over, hooked the little girl's shoulders, smiled, and said, "Little Griseo, don't think too much. If no one comes to find you, just follow us! We will take good care of you!"

"......?"

Griseo, who was just calmly narrating the story, slowly had a big question mark on her head after being hugged by someone.

"I didn't think too much..."

However, after the little girl explained in a low voice, a gentle and soothing touch fell on her head, and then Lois's voice came into her ears.

"Okay, it's good that you don't think too much. After this mission is over, Leos and I will secretly take you two little guys out for a snack."

"Yeah."

——————————————

Accompanied by the cold wind and snowflakes, Sakura successfully found her target, one of the enemy's large forces this time.

Because it was daytime, she didn't get too close for the time being, but chose to observe secretly from a distance.

Sakura glanced around, and from the analysis of various traces, she deduced that this part of the enemy was at least several hundred, and their equipment was relatively sophisticated.

However, these were no problem for Sakura, and had no effect.

The only thing was that this was the first time she dealt with so many people... She didn't look like an assassin at all.

"Huh--"

After getting ready, Sakura dodged and attacked the enemy. This was destined to be a brutal killing...

However, she would not be soft-hearted, because they were enemies, and because of their different standing.

If Sakura let them go today, what should she do if they attracted more enemies or even hurt the people she cared about?

What's more, if she gave them a chance, Sakura didn't think they would let go of the infected people of Reunion...

——————————————

"..."

On the other side, after feeling what Sakura was doing at the moment, Griseo, who was eating lunch, suddenly felt a little unappetizing.

At this moment, a trace of complexity flashed across her wide-open violet eyes...

"What's wrong? Little Griseo doesn't think it tastes good? But it's true, there's not much oil in it."

Watching Griseo stop and her sudden loss of appetite, Lois couldn't help but gently reach out her hand, rub her soft hair, and ask.

"It's not... It's not because of lunch. I just suddenly lost my appetite..." As she said that, Griseo lowered her head and looked at the bowl in her hand. After thinking for a while, she continued, "But Griseo is a good child and won't waste food."

"... That's not the case. If little Griseo really can't eat it, you can give it to me or Leos."

Hearing this, Lois couldn't help but sigh in her heart again. Griseo is well-behaved and sensible, and she looks very cute. She is simply an angel!

"No, I can finish it."

After her voice fell, although Griseo still had no appetite, in order not to worry others, she picked up the spoon again and ate in small bites in front of the two Yetis.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Lois showed a helpless smile, rubbed Griseo's little head again, and said, "Okay, don't force yourself."

"Yeah."

...

In theory, if there is nothing to do at noon, it can be said to be a perfect rest time.

But, if there is something...

"Ah~"

The cute blue-haired little loli who walked out couldn't help but yawn for the second time this afternoon, and her big violet eyes were full of mist.

Although Griseo couldn't intervene too much in this exclusive mission, it was still possible to secretly remind Yelena.

She wouldn't let these Yetis directly face so many enemies, but at least they could guard against the scout team coming from another direction.

There was no need to even take action, they just need to delay for a while, and Sakura could come over.

As Griseo stepped out of the warehouse again, as expected, many eyes were cast on her again...

But this time, the little girl was not affected by this. She gently blinked her big eyes with mist, ignoring all these messy things.

Then, Griseo took small steps and went straight to her target this time, Yelena.

Chapter 52 Situation

Finally, with a little reminder from Griseo, Yelena quickly understood the current situation and then found a few Yetis to start deploying the plan.

Then, in order to protect these infected people and guard against the enemy's reconnaissance team, FrostNova ordered a large number of infected people in the mine to squeeze into the building and not stay outside.

As soon as this order was issued, the huge mine area soon became empty... It looked a bit deserted.

But there was no other way. These newly rescued infected people were more or less injured and weak.

If they stayed outside, they would not only be easily exposed and hurt but also be a bit of a drag.

"..."

Looking at the empty mine and the few busy Yetis, Griseo's eyes flickered.

But to be honest, the little loli felt pretty good now. After all, the people who liked to stare at her had temporarily disappeared... and there was no turbid color.

————————————————

One of the official temporary camps——

“…”

A pink figure stood silently in front of the camp, looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground, her eyes under the mask filled with complex emotions.

Then, as before, she reached out and took out a dozen forget-me-nots, letting them drift to the ground with the cold wind and snowflakes.

After doing all this, Sakura put away the complexity in her eyes and left quickly. Time waits for no one, and there is another side waiting for her to solve.

However, through the killing just now, she began to want to get the [Seven Thunders of Retribution] as soon as possible, because she was afraid that if she continued to kill without restraint, it might affect her.

And the [Seven Thunders of Retribution], the Divine Key, can protect Sakura in this regard in a sense, and even reduce the time of carnage.

Of course, it is not the Divine Key itself that is special. What plays a role in protecting Sakura is the Discipline, which is issued by Aponia specifically to protect and restrict her.

Sakura can now be sure that her body has the Disciplines. As for the basis, it is because she has no memory of "Sakura" killing people.

However, she doesn't know whether this part of the murder memory is sealed on the [Seven Thunders of Retribution] given by the system. But she thinks it is still very likely.

Of course, if it is not sealed on it, the impact on Sakura is not very big. It is just equivalent to losing part of the murder memory.

——————————————————

As time passed, the team, braving the cold wind and snow, had arrived at the outskirts of the woods in a mighty manner.

Then they sent people to investigate and confirmed that there was no ambush inside. Patriot turned his head and said to the people behind him: "Be careful... guard, we... are about to... enter the woods..."

"Yes!"

After hearing Patriot's words, the Shieldguards behind him responded in a deep voice.

Hearing this, the scarlet light in Patriot's eyes flashed, and then he led the team into the woods without hesitation.

In fact, The Driver had tried to tell Patriot long before that it would be no problem to enter the woods in this direction if he moved faster.

At most, he would encounter the enemy's advance troops.

However, Patriot did not directly adopt this piece of information, not because of arrogance, but simply because of distrust. He did not want to entrust the lives of many comrades and infected people to something created by a child.

Moreover, in order to pick up his daughter and a large number of newly rescued infected people, Patriot also brought most of the Shieldguards with him on this operation.

These Shieldguards have always been his old comrades who have accompanied him in battles. Although these people, including Patriot, are not afraid of dying in battle, because of this, he does not want to have such negligence. If his comrades died in battle because he believed in other people's information, then in Patriot's view, this is a shame and an insult to his comrades.

Griseo naturally knew about this matter through her sister, the Driver, but apart from feeling a little helpless, she didn't care too much.

Even from the beginning, she didn't count these people as part of her combat power.

Of course, this was not because of Griseo's contempt for others, but simply because there was no need. Since Sakura could handle it alone, there was no need for others to intervene.

Also, the little Lolita had decided on the candidate for the "guardian," and that was Sakura.

As for why she didn't choose Snake, the reason was very simple: because it was troublesome.

In this case, no matter how you look at it, it is most appropriate to choose Sakura, who is performing a special mission, to be the guardian.

After all, if Snake comes out, he can't attack the enemy... Just empty words have no deterrent power at all.

The bargaining chips during "negotiation" and "exchange" are still very important.

"Woo..."

Thinking, Griseo gently raised her head, staring blankly at the sky, letting large flakes of snow fall on her forehead.

Then, until the snow was getting heavier, the little girl withdrew her sight and walked away with a small layer of white frost on her head.

Although she was not afraid of the cold, she also felt that the cool snow was fun. However, it was snowing so heavily and the wind was blowing... If she continued to stay outside, she would look a little silly.

So with this time, Griseo thought it would be better to go back to Alyona to sleep, or continue to tell stories.

After all, she is just a child now, a child who doesn't care about things and can't intervene, right? It's better to leave complicated things to adults.

...

Back at the door of the warehouse, Griseo pulled down her red hood, shook her small body gently, and shook off all the snowflakes on her body before pushing the door open and walking into the warehouse.

After entering, she discovered the "abnormality" in the warehouse at this moment.

At some point, several infected had been set up in the warehouse with a relatively large space, and many old, young, women and children were crowded inside.

When Griseo came in, everyone's eyes were focused on her.

Although she was surprised for a moment, the little girl's expression did not change after she reacted. She just silently looked for Alyona and the Yetis.

"Here..."

Chapter 53 Yeti Hunting

"Here..."

After hearing the familiar voice, Griseo turned her head to look at a corner, and then saw the figures of Alyona and the other two Yetis.

"..."

Without any hesitation, Griseo walked over.

"Where did you go, little Griseo? It's snowing so heavily outside," Lois said helplessly as the little girl approached.

Griseo did not hide her itinerary and explained in a low voice, "I just went to find Sister Yelena..."

"Oh, that's it."

Lois nodded first and then, after glancing at the other infected people in the warehouse, gently leaned into the little girl's ear and asked, "So, did you notice any danger and then notify the eldest sister?"

Obviously, Lois and Leos, the two Yetis staying in the warehouse, had also received the notification from the eldest sister.

"Well... but the problem is not big." Griseo nodded gently and admitted it.

"That's good. Okay, don't say so much. Although you are not afraid of the cold, let's warm up by the fire." Lois stood up with a smile and pulled the little girl to sit next to Alyona.

"Yeah." Griseo did not resist at all and sat down next to her partner obediently. Then she quietly enjoyed the warmth from the fire in front of her.

However, Lois, who stood up, did not sit down in a hurry. Instead, she walked around the warehouse to patrol. She and Leos needed to ensure that nothing was missing in the warehouse.

In fact, if there was no place to accommodate people, Yelena would never arrange for these infected people to stay in a warehouse. Even now, the people arranged in the warehouse were only some weak old and weak women and children, and no strong infected people. After all, there were a lot of supplies and even many weapons here. If someone robbed it, conflicts and troubles could arise, especially now that the Yeti Squadron was short of manpower.

"..."

Looking at Lois's back, Griseo was stunned for a moment, and then a flash of understanding appeared in her big violet eyes.

In fact, the little girl had thought about this possibility before... It was precisely because of this that she almost always chose to stay in the warehouse with the other three people to prevent this possibility.

This is also one of the reasons why Griseo was surprised when she saw so many people just now.

But she quickly thought it might be because there was not enough space... So Yelena was forced to arrange it this way.

After all, at a glance, they were all old, weak, women, and children, and the reason was obvious.

"Ah~"

However, before Griseo could continue to think, the third yawn at noon today interrupted her directly, causing her beautiful big eyes to be filled with crystal mist again.

"Are you sleepy? Then come to my arms and sleep for a while..."

After seeing Griseo yawn, Alyona, who was sitting next to her, blinked her light green eyes and smiled.

Then she opened her warm arms to the little girl.

Hearing this, Griseo did not rush to get close to her but tilted her head slightly and asked softly, "What about Alyona?"

"It's okay, I dozed off just when you went out, and now I'm very energetic." Alyona patted her slender legs, and the meaning was self-evident.

"Okay then..."

Although she agreed, Griseo did not nestle in her arms directly as Alyona hoped. Instead, she gently leaned on her shoulder, just like last night.

"Good afternoon..."

Looking at Griseo, who closed her eyes not long after, Alyona's eyes flickered and she smiled. Then she hesitated for a moment, stretched out her hand, and gently stroked the little girl's sky-blue hair.

——————————————————————

Because she was reminded in advance by Griseo, Yelena, who was well-prepared, waited quietly and explored carefully.

Soon, some clues were found around the mine, which directly confirmed the matter of the scout team mentioned by the little girl.

After realizing that the other party was not very large in number, FrostNova was now planning to take the Yetis to kill them...

After all, once the reconnaissance team was released, they might soon bring a large number of enemies to besiege.

So, in order to delay time and slow down the enemy's actions, FrostNova would never allow this team to go back alive.

Since the decision had been made, Yelena acted swiftly. After contacting several Yetis in private and forming a small team, they left the mine quietly and chased the prey that had already scouted the intelligence and left.

As for why they didn't start the attack when this team was scouting, the reason is very simple: because the enemy dispersed after approaching the mine. The Yeti Squadron didn't have enough manpower.

If one of them alerted the enemy and accidentally missed one or two, it would be over, and this operation would become meaningless.

So, FrostNova chose this method, following the traces from a distance, waiting for these people to regroup, and then killing them in one fell swoop.

...

Griseo noticed Yelena's departure, as Tyrant and Lady were still outside.

However, the little girl didn't intend to stop her... because there was no reasonable reason.

If it were usual, Griseo might have stopped Yelena long ago, or acted before her... But this time, there were annoying task restrictions so she couldn't do it.

However, the little girl was not very worried, because she felt that Sakura was coming here soon.

So although "Griseo" couldn't protect Yelena, if Sakura could, it wouldn't make much difference.

However, because of this incident, Sakura's original random processing order became fixed, pointing directly to the advance team.

"Hmm..."

Thinking, Griseo hummed softly and then subconsciously rubbed Alyona's shoulder gently.

Chapter 54 [Forget-me-not] is my nickname

The wind howled with the snow, and the surrounding trees fell backwards indistinctly. Sakura continued to move towards the target quickly without any pause or relaxation.

...

However, when Sakura arrived, she saw the two sides fighting and Yelena, who was about to use her Ice Originium Arts to counterattack. The cold air had already gathered in her hands...

However, it was obvious that Sakura did not intend to give the white rabbit this opportunity to use it.

The extremely fast slash was swung out, and several sharp slashes passed through, leaving ice-blue traces in the air.

In just a moment, all the people in the scout team had their heads moved without reacting.

“What…”

This time, Sakura did not hold back as before, so before several headless corpses fell, a scarlet blood fountain burst out in front of everyone’s eyes.

"What!"

"Damn!"

As the blood gushed out and stung the eyes of several snow monsters present, they quickly reacted and looked at the culprit wearing a mask not far away.

Even Yelena frowned slightly, looking serious as if facing a great enemy, and asked, "Who are you?"

As for why Yelena had such a big reaction, it was because... it was too fast.

The pink-haired Cautus wearing a mask and dressed coolly in front of her just made a move too fast, so fast that not only the Yetis, but also she couldn't see it clearly.

"Me? You don't need to know now."

Obviously, Sakura didn't want to waste too much time here with FrostNova because there were still a large number of enemies waiting for her to deal with.

If she continued to linger here, maybe Patriot would collide with those enemies and cause some unnecessary losses.

So, after putting down two [Forget-me-not] as before, Sakura planned to turn around and leave.

However, as if she remembered something, she whispered, "If you really want to call me, [Forget-me-not] is my nickname."

Afterwards, Sakura really didn't look at Yelena and the others' reactions anymore. She dodged and left here quickly, running towards the next target.

Looking at the figure that disappeared in a few breaths, Yelena frowned even deeper. She subconsciously repeated softly, "Forget-me-not?"

"Big sister, this... are we going back directly next?"

Looking at her dazed big sister, a snow monster who had reacted asked.

"Well... Let's go back. Although it wasn't us who did it, the scout team was still solved." Hearing this, Yelena came back to her senses and nodded gently.

However, before leaving, she still took a step forward, cut a piece of cloth from the body, and wrapped up the two pink [Forget-me-nots] that Sakura had just left on the ground.

——————————————————————

In the mine warehouse——

At the same time, Griseo, who had been leaning on Alyona's shoulder, slowly sat up and rubbed her eyes.

"What's wrong?"

Looking at the cute Griseo who suddenly sat up and was still sleepy, Alyona softened her voice and asked softly.

"Well... nothing, just a little uncomfortable."

Hearing this, Griseo also explained to Alyona in a low voice.

The little loli suddenly stood up, not because she was happy to know the situation on Sakura's side, but because she was simply a little uncomfortable.

Of course, this discomfort does not mean that she is not used to leaning on Alyona's shoulder. But it means... until now, she has been glanced secretly from time to time.

Although Griseo is not afraid and does not care...

However, this time the distance is too close, and these sights are also mixed with various colors. It makes her feel a little uncomfortable, and she's about to be forced to be dyed.

"Are you really okay?"

For some reason, Alyona always felt that Griseo seemed a little irritated at the moment, but when she looked closely, she couldn't see anything from the expressionless face of the little girl.

"Well...it's okay."

After responding softly, Griseo gently hugged her partner and gently placed her little head on her shoulder. After a while, she continued sullenly:

"Well, Alyona, can you lend me the color again?"

"...Well, you can use it."

Feeling the warmth beside her ears, Alyona's brain was blank for a moment, and then after reacting, she simply answered.

In her opinion, it was just a color...If Griseo wanted to use it, she didn't even need to tell her again, just take it away.

And now, Alyona actually more or less finally understood the concept of "color" in Griseo's mouth.

Although she didn't fully understand it, she came to a general conclusion through observation and combining the little girl's previous words.

In Alyona's opinion, this "color" should refer to the different characteristics of each person, which others cannot see.

However, Griseo seems to be special. Not only can she see it, but she seems to be affected by it. Just like before and now.

Alyona also noticed that the little Lolita took the initiative to get rid of the influence of other "colors" twice...

"Huh..."

After thinking it through, a trace of helplessness flashed in Alyona's light green eyes.

And soon, Griseo was stained with the color of her partner again, but this time she did not intend to paint, but just sat there quietly, wanting the color to stay longer this time.

If the color fades away and still has such a big impact on her, she plans to go out and play.

Anyway, she is not afraid of the cold, just think of it as going out to patrol the mine.

————————————————————

Next, Sakura continued to move in the woods covered with silver frost according to the information given by Griseo. Even the heavy snow at this moment could not affect her speed.

However, this time, she was obviously more vigilant than before, because she was afraid that an inner guard would come out from the enemies on this side.

Sakura was not really afraid of the Emperor's Blades, and it was no exaggeration to say that she could easily kill them, but the characteristics of Ursus' Emperor's Blades were really troublesome... They were also a living bomb with a wide range.

As long as their protective suit was destroyed, then... it would trigger an annihilation, which was powerful enough to raze a manor to the ground.

In this case, either Sakura just repelled the enemy as the system task said, or she could only lead the people away...

Otherwise, if Yelena and Patriot were affected, she would regret it.

But she can only say that this mission was too restrictive. If Griseo could intervene, she would not even need to use force, and could directly seal the people into the painting.

That would really be safe and pollution-free.

Chapter 55: Who are you...?

However, just as Sakura was moving forward cautiously, the information from Griseo stunned her and slowed her down considerably.

The little loli had just informed her that the enemy force the Tyrant had been watching gave up their new round of probing and started to move forward.

Patriot were getting closer to Sakura. It wouldn't take long for the two to collide.

If possible, Sakura didn't want the two sides to collide at all. She just wanted to quietly and silently eliminate the enemy, earn her reward, and protect her friends.

You know, Patriot are still difficult to deal with, in various senses.

It was still unknown whether there were any Emperor's Blades among this wave of enemies. Based on common sense, Sakura thought it was unlikely. After all, why would the Emperor's Blades bother with this small matter?

But the system had arranged this task, so there was some doubt. Of course, it is possible she was overthinking.

"Alas..."

After a light sigh, Sakura exerted force on her feet and increased her speed again...

"Stop... there are... enemies... ahead!"

Patriot, who was at the front of the team, suddenly stopped, looked at the hazy figures in the distance, and issued an order in his hoarse voice. The team also stopped with his order, and everyone prepared for battle. The shield guards behind him stepped forward and stood with Patriot, at the front of the team in a defensive state.

When Patriot discovered the other side, the other side naturally discovered the situation here and also entered a defensive state...

For a while, both sides quietly observed the identity of the other.

However, this harmony did not last too long.

Suddenly, a pink figure attacked the official team without any scruples and continued to harvest lives. Almost a group of people fell...

The team was completely confused by Sakura's disturbance. Some tried to fight back with weapons, while others used the Arts. In the end, it was chaos, and no one could hit the attacking killer.

However, there were two reasons why Sakura dared to be so reckless. First, through her observation, she confirmed there were no enemies of the standard of the inner guards in the team. Second, if she waited any longer, Patriot would rush up. To help Reunion reduce losses, she chose to strike first.

After noticing the situation on the opposite side, the red light in Patriot's eyes flashed. He did not choose to act rashly but kept his troops still while analyzing the situation in front of him.

In his opinion, these teams were likely sent by the government side to deal with the mine incident and suppress the infected.

The figure killing people in the team and harvesting heads quickly was unfamiliar to Patriot, but this did not prevent him from feeling a little fear in his heart.

After all, although there was a distance, he could still see Sakura's agile figure and feel the sharp killing intent.

After Sakura quickly killed nearly half the people and their leader, the team completely collapsed. Many timid people already had thoughts of retreating, and some had even begun to act on them.

However, Sakura was faster than them...

Once again, the gushing scarlet dyed the pure white silver frost, and large patches of blood flowers bloomed.

Patriot, who witnessed everything not far away, did not stop it but watched and guarded against Sakura to prevent her from rushing over here and hurting his people.

However, after dealing with all the enemies, Sakura did not even glance at Patriot. She just stood there quietly, looking at the corpses on the ground with complicated eyes.

"Huh..."

After exhaling lightly, Sakura calmed down and put the ordinary long sword in her hand into the system space.

Then she grasped a beautiful sword with a lavender glow in the air, and it suddenly appeared in her hand.

[Seven Thunders of Retribution·Rumble] is the current name of the Seven Thunders of Retribution in the form of a sword. Of course, this form also has an over-limit state, called [Seven Thunders of Purification·Narukami].

However, since it wasn't necessary, Ying did not intend to show the over-limit state.

Now, she took out this Divine Key to see if it contained the memory of "Sakura"'s Killings.

"Shua——"

As the sword slowly came out of its sheath, many memories of murder suddenly appeared in front of Sakura's eyes. Looking at these memories, she felt a lot of pressure in her heart for a while.

Then, after the pressure in her heart reached a certain level, she stopped drawing the sword and put it back into its sheath.

"Shua——"

After Sakura completed this action, all the memories of murder she just did, including the memory fragments she had just seen, disappeared instantly and were sealed in [Seven Thunders of Retribution].

After losing these memories, Sakura felt a great sense of relief and completely rid herself of the influence of killing so many people this time.

"..."

After testing the new weapon, Sakura turned her head slowly and looked at Patriot who had been watching her.

However, this situation did not last too long. She quickly retracted her gaze, put down [Forget-me-not] again, and planned to leave directly.

For now, Sakura did not want to contact Patriot and others. Even if she planned to appear as a "guardian" later, it would be after returning to the Reunion Movement Basecamp.

For now, both sides should do what they need to do. Staying here would only delay her time... It was completely meaningless.

"Who... are you?"

Looking at Sakura, who was about to turn around and leave, Patriot finally spoke.

"..."

Faced with the sudden inquiry, Sakura did not answer his question. She exerted her strength and disappeared from the eyes of Patriot and others in a breath, accompanied by the wind and snow.

Sakura's speed was too fast, so fast that Patriot did not even have the opportunity to stop her.

"Go check... whether there are still people... alive there, and then collect... their weapons and equipment." After watching the pink figure disappear for a while, Patriot issued a new order.

After collecting everything, Patriot continued to lead the team and rushed to the mine as quickly as possible.

——————————————————

In the mine warehouse——

After realizing that Sakura had completed the task and tested the weapon, Griseo gently blinked her big eyes, with a touch of joy in her eyes.

This joy even made the little loli, who had just faded from Alyona's color, not so uncomfortable.

"What's wrong?"

After noticing Griseo's joy, Alyona on the side had a hint of doubt in her eyes and asked softly.

After hearing Alyona's question, Griseo did not hesitate to whisper in her ear, "We will leave here soon. The people who are coming to pick us up are on their way."

"Hey..."

Hearing this, Alyona was stunned.

She did not expect that the thing making the little loli happy was this kind of news...

At the same time, Alyona felt a little nervous about going to a new place. A new place meant complete strangers.

"It's okay, I will accompany you."

Seeing her stunned little friend, Griseo's big violet eyes showed a trace of helplessness. She reached out, touched her little head, and comforted her softly.

"...Yeah!"

Feeling the warm touch on her head, the tension in Alyona's heart disappeared. After a moment, she nodded heavily to the little loli.

————————————————————

It didn't take too long for Patriot to lead the team to the mine. Once they arrived, they quickly began to pack up their things, taking away everything that was useful.

Both Patriot and Yelena knew this was not a place suitable for chatting. Every moment of staying here posed great risks.

So, if there was anything they needed to discuss, they planned to do it back at the camp.

It didn't take much time. After confirming everything was packed, they were ready.

The group brought supplies and protected the infected people they had rescued, leaving the huge mine and the nightmare it represented for many.

Chapter 56: Arrival and Chat

"..."

At this moment, both Griseo and Alyona were held in Mr. Wolf's arms, quietly following the large group.

Because there were more people to bring back this time, the overall team was not moving very fast, so the little girl was somewhat bored.

"......!"

But after a while, Griseo's boredom disappeared instantly, because she remembered a very scary thing, something she had almost forgotten.

That is, she hadn't told Alina and Talulah about sneaking away this time except for leaving a "note"...

If she goes back, she should be taught a lesson, right? She will definitely be taught a lesson!

After spending a night in the mine and meeting a little friend, Griseo almost forgot about it. After thinking it over... she began to feel a little guilty.

After all, the little girl herself knew that even if she left a note, Alina and the others would still be worried!

It's bad. Thinking about it, Griseo suddenly felt that she had committed a serious crime... As expected, she should go back and admit her mistake.

"?"

Alyona turned her head and looked at Griseo, who suddenly looked guilty, with a big question mark appearing above her head.

As they spent more time together, she realized she couldn't keep up with the little girl's thinking at all...

...

Because the team was moving too slowly, Sakura's speed was also very slow this time, and she fell far behind the team.

If she got too close, she would be noticed by Patriot, which could lead to unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts.

After all, Sakura's reason for following was very simple... just to be a "guardian".

If there was a misunderstanding, it would be difficult to resolve peacefully without communication.

————————————————

At the Reunion Movement camp——

"Considering the time, Patriot should be back soon. Are you ready, Alina?"

As if remembering something, Talulah looked up at her best friend beside her and asked curiously.

"Of course, many positions have been vacated and filled... If it's still not enough by then, we'll make other arrangements." Hearing this, Alina nodded gently.

"That's good. Let this new batch of infected people rest for a few days, and then we'll move to another location."

The Reunion Movement had been stationed in this location for a long time, and it was time to change to a new location. Continuing to stay here would likely attract attention... and lead to big trouble.

Therefore, Talulah had discussed a detailed migration plan with Patriot and Yelena earlier.

Originally, the plan was to rescue the infected people in the mine, rest for a few days, and then migrate.

However, due to the actions of a certain little girl, they had been able to rescue the people ahead of schedule... So now, the migration plan could be moved up slightly.

"By the way, if Patriot are coming back, it means the little one will be back too. Alina, have you thought about how to handle her?" After discussing business matters, Talulah suddenly smiled and whispered to her best friend.

"Sigh, I haven't figured it out yet. Actually, I can almost guess why little Griseo sneaked out. Because of this, I'm not sure what to say..."

When Griseo was mentioned, Alina's eyes quickly filled with worry, her expression becoming quite helpless.

"Besides, I think I underestimated her abilities. Should I loosen my grip on her?"

"Indeed, I think that little one is beyond what we'd expect from an ordinary child. That's evident in many ways."

As she said this, Talulah recalled the painting from the night before, then remembered the doodles on her face. She couldn't help but feel a mix of exasperation and amusement.

After thinking for a moment, Alina finally expressed her thoughts with a sigh: "Well, let's wait for little Griseo to come back tonight, and then we'll talk to her."

"But we still need to protect the areas that need protection. Even if she's very capable, she's still a child... If she's inadvertently manipulated by someone with ulterior motives, it could be troublesome."

Hearing this, Talulah nodded in agreement. She fully supported her best friend's perspective.

Not to mention being manipulated by outsiders, even if it's by some infected individuals with malicious intent, it could cause significant problems and unrest, possibly leading to direct conflict.

——————————————————

As the team approached the camp of Reunion, Griseo's tension grew heavier. She felt just like when she awaited Yelena's arrival before...

And even now, the little loli vividly remembered the chilly touch on her head from the night before, aptly named the frosty head.

……

It wasn't long before the team arrived near the Reunion Movement camp, the sky completely dark... The campfire could be seen from afar.

Shortly after, Talulah and Alina arrived with a group of people to greet them.

Talulah welcomed them and delivered an impassioned speech, but none of this mattered to Griseo, who was spotted and whisked away by Alina.

Because Griseo was concerned about Alina, she entrusted Mr. Wolf to her friend before departing with the deer.

Alina didn't remark on this and was even somewhat pleased that the little one had made a new friend.

Soon, the large and small figures returned to the tent, this time entering Talulah's tent.

To conserve space for the new infected arrivals, Alina had relocated to live with Talulah...

"Little Griseo, I think we need to have a good chat," Alina said softly after pouring a cup of hot water for the cute little loli sitting on the chair.

"Hmm..."

Upon hearing Alina's words, a trace of nervousness flickered in Griseo's large violet eyes, prompting her to sit up instinctively.

She appeared as if a pitiable soul about to be scolded obediently.

"Puff..."

Seeing Griseo so on edge for the first time, Alina couldn't help but chuckle, covering her mouth, then pinched her little face and added:

"Why are you so nervous, little one? I'm not going to scold you."

"Hmm..."

Hearing this, Griseo tilted her head slightly and gazed at her in puzzlement after Alina pinched her cheek.

Chapter 57: "Pink-haired Cautus"

"If you keep looking at me like this, sigh... Remember to tell me what you are going to do next time."

Looking at the little Lolita with doubtful eyes, Alina couldn't help pinching her little face again and said unhappily.

"Yeah, I know."

Hearing this, Griseo nodded her head gently and agreed.

Through the strength shown in this incident, plus the subsequent visit of the "guardian" later, the little Lolita was sure that Alina and the others would be more relaxed in their care for her, so she nodded so simply.

"That's good, really. You suddenly ran away for such a long time, which made me worried to death."

Looking at Griseo's well-behaved appearance, Alina couldn't bear to say anything else. After touching the little Lolita's head again, her voice softened.

"Well... I won't be like this next time. Sister Alina, don't you blame me?" Griseo gently rubbed Alina's palm and asked in a low voice.

After listening to Griseo's question, Alina said helplessly, "What's the big deal? In the end, it's because I didn't take good care of you. I left you alone in the tent yesterday."

"Next time, sister, I will pay attention to this aspect. By the way, I think you need to adjust your work and rest." When she said this, Alina put away the helplessness in her eyes, and her expression became a little "serious."

"Well, I will go to bed early tonight." In terms of work and rest, Griseo agreed with what Alina said.

Because she really needs to adjust her work and rest now. Although it has almost no effect on her body, after staying up all night for two consecutive days, her work and rest are indeed a bit disordered.

Even if Aponia was here, Griseo might have been "kindly asked" to sleep already.

————————————————————

While the big and small were chatting in the tent, the outside of the tent was also much more lively and busy than before.

Because there were so many infected people suddenly, there were not only some problems with accommodation, but also some people had to squeeze in.

There were also many more meals than usual, which required more people and longer time to prepare.

However, after being busy for half a day... although many people still didn't have dinner, at least they were all settled.

So far, these newly rescued infected people have not disobeyed management, and many people have even been successfully motivated by Talulah's speeches and ideas.

However, it appears to seem that there is no unrest right now, but it does not mean that there is no unrest. People can pretend... Talulah has already deeply realized this.

However, this kind of thing is no longer a big deal. She is no longer the leader who constantly makes excuses for people and completely believes in people's kindness.

In addition, during the time when the Yeti Squadron and Griseo went out to perform the mission, Talulah directly established two teams in Reunion.

The two teams are the Patrol team and the Judgement team. And the personnel in the team were all carefully selected by her in Reunion. As for what these two teams are used for, you can probably guess it from the names...

The patrol team is used to monitor the infected people in Reunion and find those who violate the rules, while the trial team is of course used to punish those who violate the rules.

After Talulah's decision came out, it can be said that she quickly got the support of Patriot, or even that it should be so in his opinion.

Patriot had disagreements with Talulah in this regard before. In the end, no one convinced the other, and the Draco still insisted on her own naive ideas.

Until now, although he doesn't know why, after seeing Talulah, the leader of the Reunion, grow up, Patriot was still a little relieved.

Then, with the help of these two teams, the overall atmosphere of Reunion has improved a lot in just one day...

However, so far, because of the short time, the rules within Reunion are not perfect and even have many loopholes, but because of this, it takes more time to slowly supplement and improve them.

……

After being busy for a long time, the Yetis finally had some free time and gathered around the campfire, smiling and eating their dinner.

"Finally, we are almost done with the work. We are so exhausted these two days!"

"Yes, yes, it's only been one or two days, but I feel like we haven't been together for a long time."

"Indeed, I feel the same way."

While everyone else was talking about it, Lois seemed to be thinking about something, and then asked the other companions in a low voice:

"What happened to elder sister today? I feel like she hasn't been in a good mood since noon."

"You are talking about this, it's a long story... We went out to deal with the enemy at noon today. When we first met the enemy troops, we suddenly encountered a very powerful Cautus wearing a mask."

Here, the Yeti who followed the task at noon paused, and then lowered the voice before continuing, "The blue flower that elder sister has been holding today is what the Cautus left in the scene."

"Right, talk about it in detail."

The words of the Yeti just ignited all other people's interests, and then they looked at him with gossip.

However, before he opened his mouth again, Andre first asked, "Did you see what that Cautus did?"

"...she killed hundreds of people cleanly in a short time."

"Is it true!"

"I know you... know... I told me."

At this moment, the Yetis who had been discussing fiercely before noticed that... their Dad, elder sister and Talulah stood behind them.

"This is a long story. Please sit down. You probably haven't had dinner yet."

"Yes, yes. I'll serve you some rice."

"How much does little Griseo want?"

After reacting, the Yetis, who had been quiet for a few seconds, became active again.

Then after everyone sat down, the topic returned to "Pink-haired Cautus."

However, listening to the Yetis' description of Sakura, although the expression on Griseo's little face did not change, her eyes became more and more strange, and she even wanted to cover her face.

Especially for the name "Pink-haired Cautus"...

Little Lolita felt that Sakura would definitely be angry if she heard it.

Chapter 58 It's Time to Talk

"What's wrong with little Griseo?"

Alina looked at the little girl beside her with increasingly subtle eyes and asked with some confusion.

"..."

However, Griseo did not answer Alina's question, but put down the small bowl in her hand and shook her head gently.

"?"

Although she was a little curious, after seeing Griseo shaking her head, Alina did not say anything else, but rubbed her little head again.

At this moment, Yelena, who was beside her, also took out two blue flowers wrapped in cloth amid the discussion of others.

"I have seen this flower... It is indeed... left by that Cautus."

The moment he saw the flower, Patriot recognized it directly. When he went to collect weapons and equipment, he saw the flower on the ground.

However, he thought it was a mark left by Cautus that he had killed someone, and he was not sure whether it was poisonous, so he did not touch it.

"I've never seen this kind of flower before. It shouldn't be from Ursus, right?"

"It looks pretty, but it shouldn't grow on frozen soil. How can there be any flowers in this cold weather?"

"Indeed, it doesn't look like it's local."

"..."

While the others were discussing the flower, Griseo blinked her big violet eyes and slowly turned her head away.

Obviously, she had never expected that her dear sister Yelena would pick up the forget-me-not that Sakura had put down.

When she became Sakura, she didn't think there was anything wrong with doing these things with Sakura's mind, but once she changed her perspective... she always had a subtle sense of déjà vu.

Even now, this sense of déjà vu was transmitted to Sakura through telepathy...

"?"

Although she had been listening to everyone's discussion quietly, half of Alina's attention was on Griseo, so she quickly discovered that something was wrong with her.

In addition, seeing that Griseo slowly turned her head and looked away, with an expression that she couldn't bear to look directly at someone, Alina always felt that this little girl seemed to know something...

Griseo, who originally wanted to pretend that she knew nothing, flashed a trace of helplessness in her beautiful big eyes after she noticed that someone beside her had been watching her.

Then she slowly turned her head and looked at the flower in Yelena's hand, and whispered: "It's forget-me-not..."

"Hmm? Little Griseo, what did you say just now?"

"Yes, what did you say just now? It was too noisy just now and I didn't hear it clearly."

"I seem to have heard it vaguely, what is forget-me-not? Isn't this the name that Cautus told my elder sister?"

Although Griseo's voice was not loud, many people didn't hear it clearly, but whether they heard it clearly or not, everyone still noticed her and cast their eyes over.

"That flower is called forget-me-not..."

Griseo, knowing that her voice was relatively low just now, raised her voice again and repeated it.

"Hmm? How did you know, little Gray?"

"Have you seen this flower? Does it have any special meaning?"

This time, everyone present heard it, and several anxious snow monsters also asked out loud, and then waited for Griseo to continue.

"I have seen it... Forget-me-not is another name for Sister Sakura."

Looking at everyone's reactions, Griseo was stunned for a moment before explaining slowly.

"Wait!"

This time, before others could react, Lois spoke first.

"This Sister Sakura you are talking about, isn't it the one you talked to us about during the day?" Lois twitched her mouth, and then stared at Griseo helplessly, waiting for her answer.

"Hmm."

Hearing this, Griseo nodded her little head and admitted it with a well-behaved face.

"...Let me take it slowly."

Griseo's short word directly made Lois cover her face with her hands, as her brain processed the information.

"So, little Griseo, is this Cautus here to see you?" Leos, who had also heard the story during the day, asked at this moment.

"I don't know... I haven't seen Sister Sakura for a long time." After hearing Leos' question, Griseo shook her head and explained.

"What are you talking about? Tell us now."

"Okay, Leos, you know the gossip and you don't tell us!"

"So, that pink-haired Cautus is here to find little Griseo? No, why did she kill so many people?"

Looking at his friends who were making a fuss, Leos rubbed his forehead helplessly, and then said loudly: "Okay, be quiet first, let me sort it out."

"The Cautus... Miss Sakura is someone little Griseo knows, or a family member. Then the enemy discovered that we occupied the mine before, and sent people to suppress it."

"But Sakura didn't come directly to find the little girl, but secretly killed all the enemies... and then left?"

"..."

Hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought.

"Ah..."

At this moment, unlike everyone else's serious and thoughtful expressions, after saying it, Griseo was completely relaxed, covering her mouth and yawning slowly.

Before she knew it, it was time for her to sleep again, and she was feeling sleepy.

However, in order to stop these people from thinking too much, Griseo rubbed her eyes and resisted the sleepiness, and whispered: "Don't worry, Sister Sakura is a very good person and won't hurt you."

"Since... she came for... this... child, then... I think... she shouldn't... leave, of course... it can't be ruled out... as a coincidence." After listening to Griseo's words, Patriot also expressed his own views on this matter.

After all, from Griseo's words, it can be heard that the relationship between the two is not bad...

If she really came to find someone, then Patriot doesn't believe that Cautus would abandon this little girl and choose to leave directly.

"Then there is no way. Since the little girl's sister didn't choose to show up directly, there must be a reason. Now we can only wait and see."

As she said, Talulah reached out and rubbed her forehead, with a helpless expression.

"Okay, Alina, take the little girl to rest first, it's getting late."

"Yeah."

Hearing this, Alina nodded gently, then took the hand of Griseo beside her, and said softly: "Little Griseo, go back with your sister, you promised to rest early before."

"Okay."

After Griseo agreed, Alina gestured to the others, and then pulled the little girl away.

The others continued to discuss other things...

——————————————————

While walking towards the tent, Griseo suddenly looked up at Alina who was holding her hand, and asked in a low voice: "Sister Alina... Can I sleep with Alyona at night?"

"Yeah? You mean the friend you know... If you want, you can, didn't I just set up a small bed for you before."

After hearing the unfamiliar name from the little girl, Alina was stunned at first, and then reacted. Hearing this, Griseo nodded her head first, and then began to call Mr. Wolf in her heart. After all, Mr. Wolf has been protecting Alyona until now.

…

After a while, Mr. Wolf, holding Alyona, appeared beside the two of them, so fast that they hadn't even reached the tent yet.

"So fast, it seems that little Griseo, you have planned this long ago~" Alina looked at the huge Mr. Wolf and the girl in his arms, smiled, and joked helplessly.

After teasing the little girl, Alina set her sights on Alyona and introduced with a smile: "Hello, my name is Alina, nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you, Miss Alina, my name is Alyona." Alyona returned the greeting obediently after letting Mr. Wolf put her down.

"Call me Sister Okay, it's still quite cold outside, let's go back quickly." After saying that, Alina stretched out her other free hand to Alyona, the meaning was self-evident.

"..."

Alyona was stunned for a moment by the hand that was stretched out in front of her. A trace of vigilance flashed in her light green eyes, and she did not hold it immediately.

However, this situation did not last long, because Griseo, who was standing on the side, quietly nodded to her companion.

After seeing the little girl's affirmation, Alyona no longer hesitated and gently held Alina's hand.

Alina did not say anything when she saw this scene, but just smiled gently, and then continued to walk forward with the two children in one hand.

And the two little girls also followed her pace very obediently.

……

After a while, Alina returned to the tent with the two children.

After settling the people down, she seemed to remember something, turned her head and said softly to Griseo and Alyona: "Sister remembered something and wanted to go out."

"But I'll be back soon. If you two are sleepy, go to sleep first."

"Okay, got it."

Hearing this, the two little girls nodded obediently and agreed.

Although the two little ones in front of her behaved very well, Alina couldn't help but give a few more instructions. Then she turned and left the tent.

————————————————————

After leaving the tent, Alina felt the pervasive coldness, and her body trembled subconsciously. Then she wrapped her clothes tightly and exhaled a breath of hot air.

What she had just forgotten was just a small matter, which didn't waste too much time.

However, Alina was not a person who liked to procrastinate. Since she remembered it, she still planned to do it.

"Shua——"

However, before she walked far, Alina stopped...

Because, at this moment, a delicate sword with a scabbard was across her chest, blocking her steps.

"It's time to chat."

Chapter 59 Warming the Bed?

After watching Alina leave, Griseo slowly climbed onto the bed and got into the cold quilt.

After all, for her, this little bit of coldness was nothing... There was no problem in warming the bed first.

But it was different for Alyona. If she went in, she would need to warm up for a long time before her body and the quilt could get warm.

"Well... I'll warm you up first, Alyona, come up later," Griseo said, slipping her furry little head out from under the heavy quilt.

"...Okay~"

After hearing Griseo's words, Alyona was slightly stunned, but then she nodded gently and showed her a bright smile.

To be honest, every time the little loli's words and actions were so unexpected to Alyona, it could even be said that she was caught off guard and found it difficult to resist. However, she didn't hate this feeling because she could feel the affection and sincerity...

"Well, Mr. Wolf."

Suddenly, Griseo seemed to remember something and called out to her loyal partner softly.

"?"

Looking at Mr. Wolf, who suddenly appeared beside the bed, Alyona's eyes flashed with a trace of doubt. She then looked at Griseo with an inquiring expression.

"I suddenly remembered that, Alyona, you don't seem to have pajamas yet. I'll ask Mr. Wolf to get you a set."

Griseo, who was lying on the bed with only her small head exposed, blinked her big violet eyes and explained to her little friend.

"Ah, this..."

Obviously, Alyona couldn't follow the little loli's thinking again. She racked her brains but didn't expect that the reason why Mr. Wolf was summoned again was to get her pajamas.

Just when Alyona was still in a state of surprise, Mr. Wolf had already taken out suitable pajamas and handed them to her elegantly.

Looking at the pajamas in front of her, which were obviously made of excellent material, Alyona hesitated, but after meeting Griseo's beautiful eyes full of expectation, she still reached out and took them.

"...Thank you."

"Well, as long as you like it."

As she said that, Griseo slowly retracted her cute little head into the quilt, and finally did not forget to say in a buzzing voice: "It's warm inside, Griseo won't peek."

"Okay~"

Looking at the blue-haired little cutie slowly retracting, Alyona's heart softened, and her voice subconsciously softened.

For other people, she has always been vigilant and cold-faced... But for some reason, she just can't harden her heart to Griseo.

In fact, even though the little loli is her savior, Alyona should not relax her vigilance so much...

This is the conclusion she has drawn from the bloody lesson of living in this cruel snowfield for so long. However, there seemed to be a strange magic in Griseo that attracted Alyona, making her want to get close, touch, relax, and even trust.

"..."

Thinking about it, Alyona quickly changed into her pajamas without caring. Then, feeling the coldness at the moment, she walked towards the bed.

The reason why she moved so quickly was because she didn't want Griseo to stay in the quilt and get bored.

However, the fact was completely opposite to what Alyona thought. At this moment, Griseo, who was completely bored in the quilt, was having the time of her life observing things through Sakura's eyes.

To be honest, if she hadn't been contacted suddenly... The little loli wouldn't have even noticed that Sakura had rushed into the camp of the Reunion Movement and stopped Alyona.

——————————————————————

"It's not good for you to break in so rashly."

After being stopped, Alina subconsciously looked to her side, and the first thing she saw was the mask on Sakura's face, followed by the conspicuous long "rabbit ears."

"It's just that I need to talk to you about something. I'm not very interested in your place," responded Sakura calmly, retracting her sword.

"Then... Miss Sakura wants to take little Griseo away?"

After watching the sword in front of her being retracted, Alina's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity. After a moment of hesitation, she asked Sakura in a low voice.

However, Sakura did not directly answer Alina's question, but just whispered: "Call a few people here first."

"...Then I'll go over and call them, but Miss Sakura, you..."

"I'll wait for you here."

"Okay."

Hearing this, Alina said nothing more, took a deep look at Sakura, and then trotted towards the campfire.

After all, this Cautus said that, she had nothing to worry about.

What's more, Alina felt that if Sakura really had any evil intentions, it would be easier to stop them by calling everyone together, especially Patriot.

Although she had not seen the terrifying strength of Patriot with her own eyes, she had heard rumors about it.

Moreover, there has always been a saying in Ursus that "three Wendigos can conquer a small city," so you can imagine how powerful Patriot, a pure-blooded Sarkaz Wendigo, is.

However, at this moment, Alyona had no idea that she had underestimated Sakura even though she had overestimated her as much as possible.

"..."

Looking at Alyona's departing back, a trace of helplessness flashed in Sakura's blue eyes under the mask. As Griseo was used to getting along with the Elafia, she almost couldn't hold it back her words.

But fortunately, she didn't collapse her facade in the end. As expected, she still needs to adapt more, especially in front of acquaintances.

...

After running all the way to the campfire, Alyona successfully attracted the attention of a group of people. Whether it was Tallulah or the Yetis, they all looked at her, who was a little out of breath.

"What's wrong? Why are you so anxious?"

As she spoke, Tallulah stood up and walked towards Alyona, gently supporting her.

"Huh - there are some very important things. Please come over, Tallulah, Yelena, and Patriot. As for what it is, let's talk while we walk."

After taking a deep breath, Alyona looked up at Patriot and said.

"..."

Hearing this, Tallulah did not ask anything else, but nodded gently to Yelena and the others.

Then, Yelena and her father looked at each other and stood up.

Then, a group of people left under the leadership of Alina. Only a group of Yetis who looked at each other and were a little confused were left.

...

"What happened? Can you tell us now?" After walking a distance beside Alina, Talulah asked her doubts again.

Hearing this, Alina smiled bitterly, and then explained softly:

"... Little Griseo's sister Sakura came to see me, and she is in the tent."

Chapter 60 Sakura's Chips

"...Little Griseo's sister Sakura came over here, right over there in the tent."

After Alina finished speaking, the other three people present were stunned.

"What? That Cautus came over here directly?"

After reacting, Talulah asked in shock.

Although Patriot and Yelena did not speak, they all turned their eyes to Alina, waiting for her answer.

"Yes, I just remembered that there are some things I haven't finished, so after settling the little guy, I will leave first and go to do it."

At this point, Alina paused, and then continued: "But I was stopped not far from the tent. And before we talked for a few words, Miss Sakura asked me to call you all over."

"Ah... What a presumptuous guest, then let's go and meet her. Let's see what we want to talk about."

After a moment of silence, Talulah's eyes flashed, and she rubbed her forehead helplessly.

At this time, Patriot, who had been silent all the time, opened his mouth and warned the three people beside him: "Her... strength... is not... weak. If... she starts... fighting later, you all... be... careful."

Patriot did not forget that the sharp sword slash today, even at such a long distance, could scratch him a little painfully.

"Yeah."

Hearing this, the three nodded and wrote down Patriot's words. ……

Sakura, who stood there quietly waiting, had adjusted her mentality at this moment and was fully prepared to face the next few familiar faces.

She was even prepared for a possible fight... Although she wanted to talk peacefully, who could be sure that there would be no conflict?

Take Patriot, for example. Sakura felt that he might give her, the "intruder," a warning. Of course, the premise of this warning should be that no innocent people would be harmed.

Otherwise, if the battle breaks out, the aftermath alone can kill many infected people in the Reunion camp.

……

Four familiar figures appeared in Sakura's eyes soon after, but she did not speak in a hurry, but just stared at the people in front of her quietly.

While Sakura was staring at the four people, the four people also looked at and examined her at the same time.

"It's so late, I don't know what this lady's intention is to break into our camp." After observing Sakura for a while, Talulah spoke tentatively.

"I don't mean to offend you. I came here to talk to you about Griseo. So, let's find a quiet place..." Sakura explained softly after hearing what Talulah said.

Although she was prepared for a conflict, she still hoped to have a peaceful chat if possible. Because there was really no need to have conflict here.

After all, in a sense, they are all family members...so no matter which side suffers, it is a loss for Sakura.

"...What is your relationship with Griseo?"

Talulah thought for a while and asked an important question without rushing to agree to Sakura.

"With Griseo? I'm her sister."

Sakura did not hesitate to answer Talulah's question and quickly gave an answer.

"..."

After hearing this answer, the people on the opposite side frowned slightly and stopped talking...the atmosphere began to gradually solidify.

"In that case, let's move to another place."

Finally, when the atmosphere was about to reach a critical point, Talullah spoke again, with a decent smile on her face.

"After all, my tent is not suitable for chatting now. There are children sleeping, right?"

"Then go to my place. My place is still empty."

At this time, Yelena slowly retracted her eyes that had been staring at Sakura and spoke coldly to continue Talullah's words.

"Well, it's up to you."

Looking at the completely unfamiliar side of the four familiar people in front of her, the expression on Sakura's face under the mask became subtle. It was really a very novel experience for her.

After Sakura agreed, Talullah and the others no longer hesitated and took her away from here and walked toward Yelena's tent.

——————————————————

In the tent——

Griseo, lying in the warm quilt, had a flash of novelty in her eyes...

To be honest, this was the first time she saw Tarua and the others like this.

Sure enough, it's better to be a well-behaved child... cute and lovable.

No, being a child is still a bit bad... too regular of a schedule, easy to get sleepy at a certain time, and adults don't listen to what they say seriously.

"Ah~"

Griseo, who had just thought of this, yawned again, and some sleepiness appeared in her eyes.

"If you're sleepy, go to bed... it's getting late. Besides, you haven't taken a nap at noon." Alyona, who was looking at Griseo yawning, couldn't help but remind her softly.

"Hmm? Hmm, hug..."

Hearing this, Griseo, who was already a little confused by sleepiness, was stunned for a moment before reacting.

After she realized what was happening, the little girl blinked her misty violet eyes and hugged Alyona, who was sleeping beside her.

"......!"

Alyona was suddenly hugged by Griseo, and her whole body suddenly froze, and she dared not move at all.

You know, even if the two of them slept in the same bed and under the same quilt, Alyona subconsciously kept a distance from Griseo since she got into bed.

But now, this distance disappeared in an instant...the two of them were completely stuck together.

"Um...Good night Alyona."

Griseo gently rubbed Alyona's shoulder again, slowly closed her eyes, and whispered good night.

She was really sleepy now, and she didn't even have the energy to eat melon...She planned to ask Sakura about the situation in the evening tomorrow.

"Well, good night."

After watching the little girl close her eyes, Alyona's eyes flashed with helplessness, and her body, which had been in a stiff state since just now, gradually relaxed, although she still didn't dare to move.

Then, as time passed, the little white bear slowly closed his light green eyes, feeling the warmth of the little girl beside her and fell asleep.

——————————————————

However, compared to the end and comfort of Griseo, Sakura's side has just begun...

At this moment in FrostNova's tent-

Several people sat around the table with serious expressions. No one spoke first, waiting for Sakura, waiting for her to find a topic.

At the same time, there were many ears outside the tent, trying to eavesdrop on the situation inside the tent.

As for who these ears belong to...of course, it's the Yeti Squadron.

Just when FrostNova and her friends took Sakura back to the tent, they were seen by a Yeti by chance...and then soon a group of Yetis ran over curiously for various reasons to eavesdrop.

However, the people in the tent were not ordinary people. They had already noticed the noise made by the Yetis.

But Sakura didn't care much, so she didn't plan to drive them away.

And since she didn't speak, Talulah and the others naturally didn't speak either. Since they didn't care, they naturally had no reason to drive them away.

What's more, if they were divided by closeness, they would trust and care more about the Yeti Squadron, after all, they were their own family.

"..."

Sitting at the table, Sakura looked up at the four people in front of her, then stretched out her hand and took off her mask in front of everyone.

Then, a young and delicate face was exposed to the eyes of Talulah and the others. There was light in Sakura's blue eyes. She raised her head slightly to meet Talulah's gaze, and then she said softly:

"Don't be so nervous. I came here just to talk to you."

"So, Miss Sakura doesn't plan to take Griseo away?" Alina asked softly, hearing the hidden meaning of Sakura's words, with a hint of imperceptible anxiety in her voice.

"Well, I won't take the child away." Hearing this, Sakura shook her head gently and answered without hesitation.

If she was the real Sakura, and there were Fire Moth or something similar in this world, she would consider taking Griseo away.

But now, forget it. Both of them are me. Where can I go if I take myself away? I may even have to live in the open air...

"In that case, what do you want to talk about, Miss Sakura?"

Looking at the straightforward Sakura, Talulah did not choose to beat around the bush and directly threw the question out.

Sakura paused for a moment and said after organizing her words:

"Well... let's just say these are some things to pay attention to about Griseo. That child is really special, both in character and ability."

After hearing what Sakura said, everyone present, including the Yetis who were eavesdropping outside, instantly became alert.

Because they were already curious about this magical and mysterious child, Griseo. Even Patriot wanted to find out the origin of the little girl.

However, the alert Talulah did not rush to ask about the specialness of Griseo, but asked another question that she had been concerned about since just now.

"Griseo is indeed a very magical child and has helped us a lot. But I still have a question. Since you are her family, why don't you choose to take her back?"

After Talulah asked this question, the eyes of several people present turned to Sakura again, quietly waiting for her answer.

Because this question is not only what Talulah cares about, but they all care about it.

After all, the little guy's life seemed pretty good before, and she was so well-behaved and strong, so generally speaking, she should be taken back.

"There are two reasons why I don't take her back. First, Griseo really likes you, so I respect her choice. And I can see that you all take good care of her."

After saying the first point, Sakura took a breath and continued after a while:

"Second, we have some problems now... Many people can't be contacted. And I think you should have guessed my identity, that I am a killer, and I don't want to bring that child with me to witness bloodshed."

After listening to Sakura's explanation, everyone present understood.

However, although she understood, Alina still had some concerns, so this time she couldn't help but ask.

"So that's how it is... So, Sakura is entrusting the little guy to us temporarily? But in fact, you should know that the nature of our organization is not suitable for entrusting."

After hearing Alina's concerns, Sakura nodded gently, and then replied calmly: "Well, I know this. But, Griseo is not an ordinary child, right? She is much stronger than you think."

But then, as if she remembered something, Sakura continued to add.

"As long as you don't use Griseo to do something bad, but just seek her help and communicate with her normally... then it doesn't matter."

"Of course, it's not entrusted to you for nothing. In exchange, I can help you kill people."

"..."

Sakura's last sentence can be said to have silenced everyone, including Talulah, who didn't know how to respond for a while. Even the red light in Patriot's eyes flickered slightly, and people don't know what he was thinking.

Looking at the expressions of the four people in front of her, Sakura frowned slightly, feeling that she was slightly despised, and then said seriously:

"I don't mean to joke with you, I am very strong. I will do what I said above. Even if you ask me to assassinate the emperor of Ursus, I can do it."

To be honest, Sakura didn't mean to joke. If it was really necessary, she would really cut off the new emperor of Ursus...

For her, it was just a little troublesome, but the problem was not big. At most, after finishing the matter, she would temporarily call back the identity of "Sakura" and hide for a while.

"Do you... know what you... are talking about? The... emperor of Ursus is... protected by many... Emperor's Blades!"

After listening to Sakura's words, Patriot finally lost his patience. A terrifying aura burst out from him. His blood-red eyes stared at Sakura and said in a serious voice.

For other people, if they are not equally strong, they will definitely be suppressed and feel timid or even fearful when facing such strong pressure from Patriot.

However, Sakura is different. She is much stronger than Patriot. This momentum and breath are useless to her, just like tickling.

"..."

So, when facing the pressure from Patriot's breath, Sakura didn't even blink and looked back calmly.

Chapter 61: How to Dig into Rhodes Island

After meeting the scarlet eyes of Patriot, Sakura's expression did not change, and she said softly: "No need to test, this oppressive aura has no effect on me."

"...You are indeed very... strong, this... is beyond doubt."

Although the expression of the Cautus girl in front of him did not change, and she looked relatively gentle, Patriot felt a strong sense of oppression, which was a warning from his body.

The people around and those who were eavesdropping outside, after hearing what Patriot said, all had a flash of surprise in their eyes, and some were even shocked.

After all, everyone here knows who Patriot is and how powerful he is. Those who can be called strong by him are naturally strong.

"But... even if you are... strong, how... can you kill... the new emperor... under the protection of... the inner guards..."

Although Patriot acknowledged the strength of the girl in front of him, he still did not think that she could kill the emperor of Ursus. As a former Ursus soldier, he knew the military strength of Ursus too well, and he had also experienced the terrifying strength of the inner guards.

Patriot's experience and cognition made him not believe what Sakura said at this moment.

"Whether Mr. Patriot believes it or not, I will put this condition here. If you need it, you can come to me," Sakura said seriously after blinking her blue eyes.

Looking at the serious Patriot in front of her, Sakura didn't want to argue with him anymore, there was really no need.

Because Ying found that Patriot's cognition and worldview were already fixed. Unless she performed one on the spot now, it would not shake his mind at all.

In this case, there is no need to argue... Whether they believe it or not, she just needs to make the conditions.

"Hmph..."

Hearing this, Patriot snorted coldly and stopped talking.

In a sense, he is now like what Sakura said, and he is not convinced in his heart. But he also knows that now is not the time to argue.

"We will accept Miss Sakura's condition. We will also take good care of the little girl, Griseo. So, can you tell us about her situation now?"

Looking at the two people with a wrong atmosphere, Talulah's eyes flashed with helplessness, and she smoothed things over.

For Talulah, whether or not Sakura had this condition, she originally planned to keep Griseo to take care of her. So she didn't care much about this matter...

What's more, the little loli also helped her and Alina a lot.

Listening to Talulah's words, Sakura nodded gently, and finally couldn't help but remind her:

"Well, no matter what others say or believe, I hope that Miss Talulah, as the leader, can make good use of this opportunity."

Now, Sakura has said everything she can say as an "outsider."

If Talulah still doesn't remember this condition when something happens, she can only let Griseo remind her indirectly.

"Okay."

Hearing this, Talulah didn't know what to say and nodded gently.

After seeing Tallulah nod, Sakura's eyes flashed with satisfaction, and then she said: "Then the next thing is, about the child Griseo."

"I guess you should have seen her abilities more or less during the time you lived with that child?"

"Yes, I have. Little Griseo even drew pictures for both of us..."

This time it was no longer Talulah who spoke, but Alina beside her.

"You have already drawn pictures... Did anything unusual happen here?" Hearing this, Sakura was stunned at first, then slowly frowned, and then hurriedly asked.

Looking at Sakura's frowned delicate eyebrows, Talulah was slightly stunned, and then replied: "No, Griseo's paintings are very helpful to us. Is there any problem?"

After all, she is also a beneficiary of Griseo's paintings. It can be said that her current transformation is entirely due to the little loli.

"Then I can only say that you are really lucky. The paintings you received are all positive... No, it may be wrong... it must be because you are too weak."

Sakura suddenly reacted while speaking, but when she said the last half of the sentence, she swallowed it and did not say it directly.

Because she was afraid of the people in front of her hitting her.

"According to you, sometimes Griseo's paintings may not be positive?" Hearing this, Alina also grasped the key meaning of Sakura's words just now and asked hurriedly.

After listening to Alina's question, Sakura shook her head gently, and then explained:

"No... not entirely right, rather than saying that it may not be positive. It is better to say that Griseo's paintings are all negative from the beginning."

After Sakura's voice fell, Yelena and the Patriot, including the Yeti outside, who had not seen Griseo's paintings, began to be a little confused.

However, Talulah and Alina, who knew the magic of little Lolita's paintings, couldn't help but shrink their pupils after listening, and a trace of surprise flashed on their faces.

"This is exactly why I want to talk to you. I hope you can remember some of the precautions I will tell you next."

At this point, Sakura's beautiful blue eyes also showed a trace of seriousness.

After hearing Sakura's words, everyone else also became very alert again. After all, what is going to be said next is about Griseo's ability.

You know, this is also one of the things that everyone has been curious about.

Sakura looked at the girls in front of her who were serious and even a little nervous, and began to explain.

"You should have all had the experience of being imitated by Griseo. In fact, it was not that she deliberately imitated you, but because she spent too much time with you, she was forced to be stained with your color."

"But don't worry, generally speaking, this situation will not last too long. Wait for a while or let her be alone for a while, and she will automatically fade the color and return to her original appearance."

Sakura stopped temporarily at this point. She planned to give these people some time to digest it.

"I have a question. Will the child be stained by everyone's color?"

During the short time when Sakura paused, Alina, who had been thinking with her head down, slowly raised her head and asked her question.

"Yes."

Hearing this, Sakura nodded first, and then continued to add as if she remembered something: "So, you need to pay attention to one thing, that is, don't let Griseo come into contact with bad people. Otherwise, she is likely to become terrible."

"Okay, we know."

After listening to Sakura's instructions, Talula nodded, indicating that she understood.

"Then, after being stained with your colors, Griseo usually paints, but... the paintings she draws are not ordinary works."

"The paintings she draws under the influence of different people have different effects... but without exception, they will have an impact on people, and most of them will evoke the deepest fear in the hearts of viewers."

"Even, very few paintings will manifest real objects. You should have seen Griseo's companions."

After saying this, Ying stopped completely. She had probably made it clear. As for any other details, she planned to wait for the people in front of her to ask.

After listening to Ying's words, the girls present all looked thoughtful, and then nodded, indicating that they remembered everything.

"Ask any other questions."

"Well, there is indeed another one, that is..."

...

After another round of inquiries and discussions, this chat was finally over.

After the chat, Sakura left her contact information and left the Reunion camp without hesitation, without even giving Talulah and the others a chance to see her off.

As for the so-called contact information, Sakura lied that she had given Griseo a thing and asked them to contact her by finding the little loli.

Also, Sakura did not really leave, but she removed her transformation after leaving the camp and disappeared directly.

In fact, there were many things about Griseo tonight, which Sakura did not reveal to Talulah and the others.

Because many things were a bit beyond their scope, just like Patriot before, there was no benefit in telling them whether others believed it or not.

Even if it was accidentally leaked, it would make people feel apprehensive and let those with ulterior motives take advantage of it...

What's more, the purpose of this trip was just to let these Reunion cadres know "Griseo" through another identity. After this goal was achieved, there was naturally no need to say anything more.

---

Different from Sakura's relaxed mood after solving the problem, Talulah and others, including the Yetis eavesdropping outside, were feeling a bit complicated at the moment.

And at the same time, they all began to guess in their hearts where Sakura and Griseo came from or the organization.

After all, Sakura and Griseo's strength and uniqueness were there, and it was impossible for them to come from an ordinary place.

"You... all... come in, don't... continue to eavesdrop... outside." Patriot glanced at the door with his scarlet eyes and said loudly.

And the Yetis hiding outside did not hesitate after hearing the call of their big daddy, and they pushed open the door curtains one after another and walked into the tent.

"Hehe... what a coincidence, Big Daddy, Elder Sister."

"Yes, yes, it's really a coincidence."

"Okay, stop kidding, we've been discovered a long time ago."

After all the eavesdroppers entered the tent, the Patriot spoke again: "Don't spread... what you just heard... out. Since... you promised... that... Cautus, you must... pay attention."

"Got it, we will all pay attention."

"Don't worry, Big Daddy!"

"Yeah."

Hearing this, the Yetis all nodded and agreed.

Although they are usually not very tuned, they are still very reliable at critical moments.

What's more, the Yetis also like Griseo, this cute, powerful, and sensible little guy. So in order to protect the little loli, it's no problem to keep a secret.

...

It's a brand new day again, and the thin sunlight shines on the cold snowfield of Ursus as usual.

"Hmm..."

When it was time to get up, the blue-haired little girl lying on the bed moved subconsciously, then slowly opened her big violet eyes with a little confusion, and looked around in a daze.

When she noticed that the little white bear hugged her tightly, she woke up a lot and stopped all her movements.

"..."

Griseo squinted her big eyes, and after a silent yawn, she finally woke up completely.

After waking up completely, she subconsciously cast her eyes on the other bed in the tent, but she didn't see anyone...

Griseo realized that Talulah and the others had already gotten up and left, so she turned her eyes away and looked at Alyona who was hugging her tightly and sleeping soundly.

Maybe it was because she hadn't slept well for a long time... The little white bear didn't seem to be waking up at all.

But Griseo didn't care about it, and let her partner hug her to sleep. After all, it was not bad for her... and even if she got up, she had nothing to do.

Just taking this opportunity, she began to check the final results of last night.

"..."

To be honest, after some investigation, Griseo was quite satisfied, after all, the desired effect had been achieved.

However, this matter was not over for her in a sense...

Based on Griseo's understanding of Tallulah and the others, she estimated that she would come to her later to ask some more questions and try to find out something.

After all, Tallulah and the others did not take any advantage in terms of information on Sakura's side, and most of them knew nothing at all.

"......!"

Because she could not move around, Griseo's little brain could be said to be constantly thinking about it. As she was thinking, she remembered one thing, a very important thing.

That is, if she remembered correctly, the American... W and her group of mercenaries should come to meet with the Reunion Movement this month.

And, among this group of mercenaries... there seemed to be Mudrock!

It can be said that Griseo became excited all of a sudden, and secretly began to think about how to dig into Rhodes Island's corners in advance, not only Mudrock but also the others, and the little loli also wanted them to stay.

However, Griseo also knew that this matter was not so easy. Because, she remembered that Mudrock left Reunion because of ideological differences in the game.

However, the little loli had no impression of the specific reason for the ideological differences...

It seems that she needs to observe carefully after someone comes later.

Chapter 62 Painting and Food

"Uh... huh?"

Just as Griseo was thinking about it, Alyona rubbed her eyes and slowly woke up.

She turned her head in confusion, looking at the little girl beside her with a puzzled expression.

"Good morning... Alyona."

After noticing that Alyona had woken up, Griseo quickly retracted her thoughts and greeted her calmly.

"Morning...!"

Hearing this, Alyona subconsciously replied and noticed her current position.

However, although she was startled again, her reaction was not as intense as before. Her ears turned slightly red, and she slowly loosened her hands holding Griseo.

"Well, let's get up and have dinner together later."

Looking at Alyona's cute appearance, Griseo reached out and gently touched her head like a sister.

Little did she know that she looked very cute.

However, since both of them were lying down this time, the little girl didn't need to stand on tiptoe to touch her head like before.

"Okay."

After noticing the touch on her head, Alyona not only didn't resist but even lowered her head slightly to facilitate Griseo's movements.

"It's warm in the quilt, Alyona, lie down for a while..."

After retracting her hand, Griseo whispered in her partner's ear.

Then she gently lifted a corner of the quilt, carefully left the warm quilt, and stood on the bed in thin clothes.

Without even Griseo's call, the huge Mr. Wolf appeared beside her, holding the white little dress in his hand.

"Thank you, Mr. Wolf."

After taking the clothes from Mr. Wolf, Griseo thanked him softly. Then she planned to change clothes.

Noticing the little girl's intention to change clothes, Mr. Wolf disappeared directly and returned to the world of painting.

Alyona, who was lying on the bed, also blushed and hid her head in the quilt.

Griseo didn't pay much attention to their actions and quickly changed into the clean clothes in her hand. Then she took small steps and carefully moved to the bed, intending to go down.

But just when the little girl was about to get down, Mr. Wolf appeared again and supported his beloved princess, allowing her to land steadily on the ground.

This time, Mr. Wolf didn't rush to disappear. He first took out a white painter's hat, put it on his princess, and then carefully put away the clothes that had just been changed on the bed.

"Well, since these clothes are back, then Mr. Knight should come back too."

Griseo, who was wearing a white skirt and barefoot, took out a paintbrush, gently turned around in place, and said to Mr. Wolf in front of her with a smile in her eyes.

Then, the azure color burst out, and the huge Mr. Wolf with red and gold edges soon turned into the azure knight who protected the princess again.

"..."

Noticing the noise outside, Alyona, who thought that Griseo had changed her clothes, quietly showed her red face.

When she opened her eyes, she was slightly stunned by the colorful colors and the source of the colors beside her. A hint of surprise flashed in her light green eyes.

Because they had not known each other for long, this was the first time Alyona saw Griseo in a white dress. Coupled with the pure white painter's hat, it perfectly set off her innocence and purity.

"Well... welcome back, Mr. Knight."

Looking at the blue knight who had returned, Griseo's eyes flashed a smile, and then she said softly with an idea.

"..."

And Mr. Knight also returned the greeting gracefully for his princess. Then he took the changed clothes and disappeared.

"Alyona...?"

After her Mr. Knight disappeared, Griseo turned her eyes back to Alyona, who was now showing a blushing face and looking a little distracted.

"I'll get up right now!"

Noticing Griseo's gaze, Alyona was startled, came to her senses, and sat up suddenly, almost breaking her wound.

"꒪꒫꒪)!"

When the little girl faced her partner's sudden big move, she was stunned.

After reacting, she said calmly: "Well, be careful... You are still injured, and it will be bad if you catch a cold."

"Got it..."

Alyona nodded after hearing Griseo's instructions. But she did not choose to lie down again, instead starting to change and dress at a very fast speed.

"꒪꒫꒪)?"

Looking at Alyona, who listened but didn't completely follow directions, Griseo did not know what to say for a while.

During the short time she hesitated, Alyona had changed her clothes at a very fast speed, left the warm bed, and sat aside to change her shoes.

"Well... it seems that Alyona is the bad child that Mother Aponia mentioned. She doesn't care about her body at all."

As she said that, a trace of helplessness flashed in Griseo's big violet eyes, and then she walked towards her companion.

"Well?"

At this moment, Alyona, who had already put on her shoes and was ready, tilted her head and showed a trace of confusion after hearing Griseo's words.

Obviously, she hadn't reacted yet and didn't know what the little girl was talking about.

"..."

This time, Griseo didn't speak again. She just walked to Alyona's side with an expressionless face, took someone's cold little hand, and silently covered it with her own hand.

"?"

And this time, Alyona was completely confused and didn't understand what was going on at all.

However, feeling the warmth and softness on her hands, she didn't dare to move at all.

Fortunately, the little white bear didn't move around. Otherwise, Griseo might have to try a method she had thought of before but had not put into practice.

For example, imitating or getting stained with the color of Aponia in "Griseo's" memory, and then educating the child who didn't take care of their body.

After Alyona's body warmed up, Griseo took her to wash up and left the tent.

After all, the two of them had been in the tent for a long time and were hungry. It was time to go out and find something to eat.

————————————————————

By the campfire in the campsite—

"It's almost time, should we wake up Griseo and the others?"

Alina, who was eating her simple breakfast, seemed to have remembered something, temporarily stopped her actions, turned her head, and looked at the person next to her and asked.

After Alina stopped talking, Talulah paused while eating, and then said with a helpless look in her eyes:

"Don't worry, there's no need to talk about the other child, but Griseo hasn't had a good rest these days. Let her sleep a little longer."

"Well... that's true. Let the two little ones sleep a little longer." After thinking for a while, Alina nodded gently, agreeing with her best friend's words.

...

...

"Good morning, little one, how did you rest last night, Alyona?"

"Good morning, little Griseo, Alyona, come and have breakfast together, you must be hungry."

Both Talulah and Alina smiled and responded gently to the little girl's greeting.

"Well, I rested well, and the quilt was warm..."

As a good child, Griseo would naturally answer truthfully and well when facing other people's questions.

"Me too, I rested well."

However, Alyona was different. Although she answered the question normally, her tone did not contain any emotion, and her hoarse voice made her seem even more indifferent.

Moreover, her smart and shy expression in the tent disappeared the moment she left the tent... Only endless indifference and alienation remained.

"It's okay to rest well, you two come and have dinner, don't stand stupidly in such cold weather."

As she said that, Alina showed a gentle smile to the two little ones. "Yes, come here." Hearing this, Talulah nodded, then stood up and gently pulled the two little ones to the fire.

Both Alina and Talulah saw that Alyona was indifferent and distant to them and even wary.

But neither of them cared much, or in their eyes, this was normal. After all, in this cannibalistic snowfield, it would be really strange if you didn't have a little disguise and vigilance.

To exaggerate a little, if you didn't have the strength, didn't have a little disguise, and didn't have a little vigilance, you might have been eaten by this land without mercy.

Then, when Griseo sat aside and ate quietly with a small bowl, Talulah and the others looked at her from time to time, looking like they wanted to say something but stopped.

Even after a night, there were some things they were still curious about, and now the only one who could answer their doubts was Griseo, a child.

However, up to now, neither of them has figured out how to start the conversation. Besides, Alyona was sitting next to them.

However, Griseo, who had been watched all the time, finally couldn't help but said in front of the two people: "By the way, there is one thing I haven't given to Talulah..."

From the beginning, the little girl noticed Talulah's gaze and intention, and waited for them to ask. But who knew that after waiting for this time, the meal was finished and there was no question.

As a result, Griseo herself couldn't hold back and spoke first.

However, what she wanted to tell Talulah was not about Sakura, but another thing that she almost forgot.

"What is it?"

After hearing Griseo's words, Talulah, who had been hesitating, temporarily dispelled her worries and asked curiously.

Alina, who was sitting next to her, also had a glimmer of curiosity in her eyes and also perked up and listened quietly.

"That's the second painting I drew that night." Griseo blinked her big violet eyes.

"Which day... Oh, that night!"

Talulah didn't react at first, but after she did, she not only remembered what happened that night but also remembered what Sakura said last night, and then asked curiously:

"So, why did you draw so many paintings that night?"

"Because I saw a snake and then sealed it in the painting." Griseo's expression became serious.

"...?!"

"What did you say?! Wait, the snake you mentioned is the same thing as what I thought?"

After listening to Griseo's words this time, Talulah's pupils shrank slightly, and she was no longer calm and peaceful as before.

At this moment, even Alina, who was sitting next to her, covered her mouth, and her face could not hide her surprise.

"Um..."

Looking at the excited Talulah in front of her, Griseo did not explain again.

After nodding her head gently, she silently took out the painting in the space, handed it to the person next to her, and then said softly:

"It's in this painting. I'm giving it to you, Talulah."

"Wait... let me sort out the current situation."

After hearing this, Talulah took a look at the painting in her hand, and couldn't help rubbing her forehead gently, and began to digest the large amount of information she had just received.

Not only her, but Alina, whose surprise had not yet subsided, had begun to try to understand the whole thing.

And Griseo was not in a hurry. She retracted her gaze and looked at Alyona, who was sitting on her right and biting on the hard bread.

"Hmm? Do you want to eat? Here."

After noticing Griseo's gaze, Alyona stopped eating, tilted her head slightly, and then handed the food in her hand over.

The little white bear thought that the little girl next to her was not full and wanted the food in her hand.

If it were anyone else, Alyona would never give up the food that could sustain life, but if it was Griseo, there would be no problem at all.

It's not because she knows that the little girl will not really eat her food, but because Alyona feels that Griseo is very good to her and will protect her, so she is willing to give up the food.

After all, in her opinion, it's just a matter of being hungry, and she has long been accustomed to it.

"..."

Looking at the food suddenly handed to her, Griseo was slightly stunned, and the whole person was a little confused.

After reacting, she quickly shook her little head and refused: "I'm full, and Alyona, don't give up your food casually."

Chapter 63 Ursus Will Kill Him

"I'm full, and... Alyona, don't give up your food casually."

After saying this, Griseo gently pushed back Alyona's hand and the food she had stretched out in front of her.

"I won't give it to anyone else, um... I'll only give it to you, Griseo."

Hearing this, Alyona's expressionless face suddenly broke into a smile since she left the tent, and then she said to Griseo seriously.

"Hmm?"

Listening to Alyona's words, Griseo tilted her head slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, and the silly hair on her head shook.

Obviously, a little loli didn't understand at all how this topic suddenly came to her. However, Griseo did not dwell on this too much. She shook her head gently, threw away her messy thoughts, and then spoke again:

"I can't either. Alyona must learn to love and protect herself."

Looking at the cute blue-haired little Lolita in front of her, Alyona was slightly stunned, and a complex expression appeared in her light green eyes, but it soon disappeared.

"Well, I know."

Then, Alyona nodded gently and agreed, but at this moment, the smile on her face was even brighter.

Although the little white bear agreed very straightforwardly now, as for what he would do later... maybe only he knew.

"Well, eat quickly..."

After hearing that his partner agreed, Griseo did not say anything more, but just urged quietly.

"Okay~"

...

While Griseo and the others were communicating in a friendly manner, Talulah and the others also sorted out the information just revealed by the little Lolita.

"Do you understand, Sisters Talulah and Alina?"

Griseo turned her head and looked at Talulah and Alina, who had a strange expression at the moment.

"I understand... But how did you do it?"

After stroking the painting in her arms, Talulah asked Griseo softly.

Others didn't understand, but Talulah was different. She really understood the nature of the Black Snake too well.

That's why her expression was so strange at the moment...

However, even if Griseo said that the Deathless Black Snake had been sealed inside, Talulah didn't think that the painting was a "complete" Black Snake.

In her opinion, the snake sealed in the painting should only be one of the many...

Of course, even if it was just this, Talulah could be said to be very happy.

Although she didn't think she would agree with the Black Snake's theory now, it was still very good to have one less hidden danger on her body. After all, no one could say that nothing would happen.

"Well... because the painting I drew for you that night, in addition to affecting you, also affected the snake on your body." After listening to Talulah's question, Griseo organized her words a little before explaining.

"..."

The little girl's explanation instantly made Talulah and Alina, who were listening carefully, fall into silence.

How to say it? Before Griseo explained, both of them thought that the little guy must have put in a lot of effort... at least it was troublesome.

Who knew that now, when they heard it, they suddenly found that the reason why the Black Snake was hit was so outrageous, and even a little funny, their expressions became even weirder.

"That day, I drew a total of three... paintings?"

Griseo, who was about to say something, suddenly thought of something when he mentioned the number of paintings. A trace of guilt flashed in her big violet eyes, and her tone became a little uncertain.

Because, if you count the one drawn on Talulah's face in the middle of the night, the little girl drew four paintings in one go that day.

"What's wrong?"

Talulah noticed the uncertainty in Griseo's tone and looked over subconsciously. Then, after noticing the guilty look in her big eyes, she asked curiously.

"Nothing... That night, after you fell asleep, the snake emerged, and then I painted it with its color and sealed it up."

Faced with Talulah's question, Griseo quickly hid the guilty look in her eyes, shook her little head, and changed the subject.

Hearing this, Talulah did not dwell on the previous question, but smiled and said gratefully:

"So that's how it is. Thank you, little guy. You really helped a lot."

"Well... You're welcome."

As she spoke, Griseo shook her head again, and the cute hair on her head shook gently again.

Although this matter was indeed a big deal for Talulah, it was really not a big problem for Griseo... It was just a matter of staying up all night.

As for staying up late to draw, she had always done it before... so it was not a big problem.

Of course, most of the time she did it secretly behind Aponia's back, otherwise she would have to face the 'love' education from the nun.

What's more, in a sense, the matter of the Black Snake was not completely over in Griseo's opinion. Only Talulah and the people who had been implanted with snake scales before were over and liberated.

As for why she said that, it was because she was not completely sure whether the existence of the nature of the Black Snake... would revive.

Although that night, Griseo used the painting to indirectly affect all the fragments of the Black Snake and sealed them all in the painting in one fell swoop, but even so, she was not sure.

Even the little loli could kill the Black Snake sealed in the painting by tearing up the painting, but this was only the consciousness of the Black Snake.

In this land, as long as there are people who believe in the Black Snake and identify with and recognize his ideas and concepts, no one can say with certainty that he will not appear again.

However, there is one thing that Griseo is very sure of, that is... whether to continue to seal or tear up the painting, at least he will not come out to cause trouble again in the short term.

With the development during this period of time, she believes that Talulah will become a good leader, will grow up, and then change the country.

"So, how does Talulah want to deal with this painting?" Griseo raised her head slightly and looked at Talulah and asked.

After the little loli asked this question, Alina slowly moved her eyes to her best friend, waiting for her answer.

"How to deal with it? Isn't it locked in?"

Talulah was suddenly asked this question, and the whole person was stunned for a moment, and then asked in confusion.

Obviously, at this moment, Talulah didn't know that she could tear up the painting to get rid of the sealed things inside, because a little loli completely forgot to say it...

"Well, Talulah can tear up or burn the painting directly, and then the sealed things inside the painting will be destroyed along with it."

Hearing this, Griseo blinked her big violet eyes gently, and then explained in a calm tone.

"He is really special... Although all of His consciousness is sealed inside, no one can guarantee that He will not come back. Unless..."

When Griseo said this, Talulah's eyes first flashed a flash of surprise, and then took over the conversation and said: "Unless, let Ursus change and let people awaken."

"At that time, Ursus will kill Him, and the awakened people will also throw away the ignorant rulers fiercely."

At this point, Talulah's tone became powerful, and her eyes were filled with unparalleled firmness and sharpness.

The strength and determination, awareness and thoughts at this moment are all the result of Talulah's growth through blood and sacrifice in the dream of the painting...

This time, she will not repeat the same mistakes. She will firmly lead everyone to keep going and change this "corrupted" country.

"..."

Listening to Talulah's words and feeling her determination and will, Griseo did not say anything, but just quietly watched the draco who seemed to be shining at this moment.

Alyona, who was standing aside, also raised the corners of her lips at some point, bloomed a gentle smile, and a trace of relief flashed in her eyes.

As for Alyona, she was still eating quietly at this moment... Although she heard everyone's conversation, she did not speak from beginning to end, and did not want to speak.

Although she had suffered hardships and was despised and unfair because of her identity as an infected person, what Talulah said and the goal of Reunion were still too far away for her as a child.

Alyona did not think so much, she just wanted and planned to follow the actions of Griseo she had already identified. Just like the "deal" or agreement they had ar the beginning.

"So, how will Talulah deal with it?"

After waiting for a while, seeing that Talulah had calmed down, Griseo asked again in a low voice.

The little girl has been curious about how Talulah will deal with the Black Snake for a long time. She wants to know whether the Draco will temporarily let the Black Snake go and put the painting away.

Or tear it up and let the Black Snake consciousness sealed in the painting dissipate directly.

However, these two methods are not much different for Griseo.

After all, even if Talulah did not destroy the painting, the consciousness of the Black Snake in the painting would never come out unless the little girl took the initiative to let it go.

"Destroy it, there is no use keeping this rotten painting, right?"

As she said, Talulah picked up the painting on her lap, and after examining it, a blazing flame burst out of her hand and devoured the painting.

After hearing Talulah's answer, there was no change on Griseo's face. She said calmly without any surprise: "Well, as long as Talulah is happy."

Then, under the gaze of the four people... this beautiful and decayed painting gradually burned under the licking of the flames.

Just as it burned to the eyes of the Black Snake in the painting, a cold voice suddenly exploded in the ears of several people.

"I was tricked..."

"But, even if it is like this, it doesn't matter. The Deathless Snake can't be killed. As long as there are still people who agree with my ideals, I will come back one day!"

Then, the Black Snake's voice fell...

The painting in Talulah's hand just burned out, turned into ashes, and was blown away by the cold wind.

"..."

After Griseo heard the sudden harsh words of the Black Snake, there was still no expression on her face, but a strange flash in her eyes.

To be honest, the little loli really didn't expect... the Black Snake could still make a harsh statement at the last moment.

Should I say that he is worthy of it?

Talulah looked at the ashes in her hand, and only after they disappeared without a trace in the cold wind did she retract her gaze.

Then she stood up solemnly, gently hugged Griseo who was sitting beside her, and then said softly:

"...Really, thank you so much."

Facing Talulah's hug, Griseo did not dodge at all, just let her hug her.

Then the little Lolita felt the "hot" color of the dragon girl a little, and then said seriously: "Then... Talulah must do what she said."

"Of course, believe me, I will do it!"

"Yes."

...

Finally, when the people around the bonfire were about to disperse, Talulah and Alina were about to go to work, and then they realized that they seemed to have forgotten something...

Before, because of the Black Snake incident, neither of them forgot to ask Griseo about her sister Sakura. At this moment, the two little guys have left here and returned...

"It's bad... We seem to have forgotten to ask about Miss Sakura." A trace of helplessness flashed across Alina's face, and then she looked at Talulah and said.

"It's okay, the little guy won't run away, you can ask again at noon." Hearing this, Talulah shook her head gently and said to her best friend with a smile.

It can be seen that the Draco is in a very good mood at the moment, and the tail behind her is also shaking slightly.

"Hehe~ That's right, let's go." Alina looked at Talulah who was in a good mood and couldn't help laughing.

"Yeah."

...

"..."

"Did you forget something?"

Alyona tilted her head slightly, looking at Griseo who suddenly stopped thinking about something, and said softly.

Hearing this, Griseo gently nodded her head and explained in a low voice: "Well... but it's not very important. Let's go back quickly. It's still quite cold outside."

Like the two people at the campfire, the little Lolita also remembered Sakura's matter after a while...

But because this matter is not a big deal, it's just that small, so although both sides remembered it, they are very tacitly and no one is looking for each other now.

"Okay."

After looking at Griseo a few more times and confirming that she is indeed fine, Alyona nodded. Then she let the little Lolita hold her hand and continued to walk forward.

Chapter 64: The Departure of Mobius

After breakfast in the morning, Griseo took Alyona back to the tent. After all, it was still very cold outside, and a large number of infected people had just joined, making the personnel a bit disorganized.

Initially, Alyona wanted to try to get along with the children in the Reunion movement camp, but due to various reasons, she had not made this attempt until now.

However, She was not very anxious about this matter. After all, the camp was about to move and was quite busy. This kind of thing could be put aside until the migration was stable.

So in this case, Alyona had never contacted the children in Reunion since she came to the camp, and she had been with Griseo the whole time.

Griseo did not oppose this at all. In fact, she did not mind having someone like Kosma by her side. On the contrary, she liked it a little.

However, no matter how close they were, there was always a time to separate, such as now...

After staying in the tent with Alyona for a few hours, Griseo remembered something. After explaining the reason to her friends and leaving Mr. Knight to protect her, she left the tent.

This thing that the little loli suddenly remembered was still relatively important in a sense.

And this thing was that it was getting late for the arrangement of Mobius, and it was time to arrange people out.

No matter how powerful Mobius was and how comprehensive her previous knowledge accumulation was, she had to understand and learn all kinds of knowledge in this world from scratch. After all, she was not from the same world.

All of this takes time, but for Griseo, the matter of curing Oripathy was imminent.

The Reunion Movement was a pure infected organization... The little loli dared to say that she should be the only non-infected person in this large camp.

Even taking a step back, not to mention benefiting all the infected, just the few that Griseo cared about, in her opinion, they all needed to be treated quickly.

Of course, the little loli didn't plan to rush out now and release her aunt Mobius directly on this cold snowfield. That would be too unkind and unfriendly to the Snake.

So, Griseo now planned to go to Talulah and ask her for some "start-up funds."

However, given the current situation of Reunion, the money asked was enough for Mobius to eat after leaving the snowfield...

As for the rest of the funds, it depended on Mobius herself.

After all, the little loli pocket right now is cleaner than her face. What? She has no pockets? That's fine, anyway, she was penniless.

With an idea, Griseo naturally took action. But it was obvious that Talulah was really busy today because after asking many people, she finally found a busy draco.

Looking at the busy Talulah, Griseo was not in a hurry to go forward but just stood aside and watched from a distance.

Although she was anxious about "releasing" Mobius, she was not in a hurry for a while...

So, the little girl was still very calm and well-behaved.

However, this wait made Griseo wait until almost noon... Almost on the eve of lunch, Talulah was completely freed from all kinds of messy things.

"I'm done for the time being. Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time, little one."

After finishing her work, Talulah put away the seriousness on her face, slowly walked to Griseo's side, and smiled at her.

The draco had noticed long before that she had been standing not far away secretly observing.

Even in the middle of work, Talulah took the time to ask what was going on but was rejected by Griseo and then pushed back to work.

"Well, I didn't wait that long."

Griseo shook her little head, and the blue hair on her head also shook.

Hearing this, Talulah leaned over, pinched the little girl's face with a helpless expression, and said:

"You, so what's the matter with you coming to see me, little guy? And where are your friends?"

"Well... Talulah, I need some start-up funds, not too much. Alyona is still in the tent, I left her a brush and drawing paper, and asked Mr. Knight to leave some too."

Faced with Talulah's inquiry, Griseo gently raised her head and answered with seriousness in her eyes.

For her purpose, the little girl was straightforward. After all, in her opinion, there was no need to hide or beat around the bush.

If she tried to do this, coupled with her identity as a child, Griseo felt that she would most likely not be able to get the "start-up funds"...

So, to prevent her from having no money to eat, she thought it would be better to be honest as a child.

After listening to what Griseo said, a big question mark slowly appeared on Talulah's head. After a short pause, the Draco looked at the little Lolita in front of her seriously and asked: "Little Griseo, what do you want money for?"

To be honest, Talulah was still very puzzled about Griseo asking for money. Because in terms of her current life, no matter how she looked at it, she didn't find any place for the little Lolita to spend money. After all, in this snowy field with scarce supplies, sometimes you may not be able to spend money...

"Well... Can I not tell, Tarurua?"

This time, Griseo hesitated. After thinking for a while, she tilted her head and asked softly. Because it is really difficult to explain in this regard, what can the little Lolita say? She can't shake Aunt Mobius out...

Looking at the cute little Lolita with her head tilted in front of her, the helplessness on Talulah's face was about to overflow.

"Really, I can't do anything with you. Forget about not telling me, how much do you need?"

"...I don't know."

Hearing this, Griseo gently blinked her big violet eyes and then answered simply.

"..."

As expected, Griseo once again successfully choked Talulah with just three short words, and she couldn't help but cover her face.

"...Forget it, let's go back first, after all, we don't have anything with us. It's almost time for lunch, so let's pick up your friends by the way."

After a little pause, Talulah moved her hand down from her face and said with a bit of a smile.

"Yeah."

After listening to Talulah's words, Griseo gently nodded her little head and agreed. She looked like a well-behaved girl who was ready to let you arrange it.

In this regard, the little loli really knew nothing and had no idea at all... And it's not just Griseo, even if she turned into other characters, she also had no idea in this regard. After all, it was a completely unfamiliar currency and a completely unfamiliar measurement. No matter who she was now, she didn't understand it.

"Let's go, little one."

Looking at the well-behaved Griseo in front of her, Talulah put away the helplessness on her face, put on a gentle smile, and stretched out her hand.

"Okay."

Facing the hand that Talulah stretched out to her, Griseo didn't hesitate and gently held it with her own hand.

...

After that, the two of them, one big and one small, returned to the tent together and started to talk to each other.

Finally, after Griseo told her the approximate use and Talulah estimated it, she roughly understood how much money the little guy needed.

At the same time, she was even more curious about the use of the little loli's money. However, curious as she was, the draco didn't intend to ask further questions. After all, everyone has some little secrets of their own.

After that, before lunchtime came, Griseo found an excuse and left the tent again. Because of the previous incident and Sakura, Talulah was quite relieved about the little Lolita, so she did not stop her but just told her to be safe and come back early.

The reason why Griseo left was, of course, to "release" the snake. As for why she chose this time at noon, it was naturally because it was almost time for lunch, and the infected people in the camp were relatively relaxed.

In this case, it is easier to sneak out without being seen...

Although it is okay to be seen, for Griseo, less trouble is better than more trouble.

With an idea, the little Lolita acted quickly.

She took her own light steps, avoided the guards, and quietly slipped out of the camp.

After leaving a distance, Griseo stopped.

After looking around to confirm that there was no one, a green light flew out of her body and landed on the side, turning into a big snake wearing a white coat and green curly hair.

After coming out, Mobius digested her memories and what happened before, then chuckled and said:

"I haven't seen Griseo for a few days. I didn't expect that we would meet again, but now we have to say goodbye again."

After hearing what Mobius said, Griseo blinked obediently and then whispered: "Aunt Mobius, long time no see?"

"..."

Mobius, who was originally in a good mood, froze her smiling face after hearing Griseo's greeting...

After reacting, she wanted to shoot Elysia, the guy who taught the child bad things.

"Huh..."

After taking a deep breath, Mobius tried to calm himself down and quietly remembered Elysia in his heart.

Seeing Mobius like this, although there was still no change on Griseo's little face, a smile flashed quickly in her big violet eyes.

"You, little Griseo~ take care of yourself and go back early. I should go too... As expected, a barren and cold place like this is not suitable for me."

After seeing Griseo like this, Mobius couldn't help but stretch out her slender hand, gently pinched her smooth little face, and then squinted her eyes and said,

"Well, Aunt Mobius, be careful... Here."

Hearing this, Griseo also put away the playful heart, took out the money that Talulah had given her before, and handed it to Mobius in front of her.

"Don't worry, the people here can't hurt me at all. What's more, Serpents won't die."

Mobius took the small stack of money handed over by Griseo, took a look at it, and then put it away. Then, she gently rubbed Griseo's little head.

"Well, I believe Aunt Mobius."

After listening to Mobius' words, Griseo nodded obediently, with trust in her big eyes.

"Okay, that's all. You go back and have lunch."

After the voice fell, Mobius also retracted her hand.

At this moment, the ground was covered with black mud with a little green, and the next moment, Mobius suddenly dived into the black mud and disappeared in front of Griseo.

"... Goodbye, Auntie Mobius."

For the situation in front of her, Griseo's eyes did not flash any panic, but said goodbye seriously.

Then, she raised her steps again and left here without any pause.

After Griseo returned to the camp, she went back to the tent again, took her friends with her, and ran to the campfire to have lunch together.

At noon today, Talulah and Alina did not forget to ask about Sakura, who had always been curious about them.

Griseo answered all the questions they asked, but whether they believed it or not, and how much they believed it had nothing to do with the little loli. However, Griseo herself felt that not many people believed what she said about Sakura's strength.

Because this kind of thing has exceeded their cognition, and they generally won't believe it before seeing it with their own eyes.

Especially for people like Patriot and Yelena who are very stubborn, if you want to gain their recognition and support, you have to show corresponding strength.

Chapter 65 Interlude

In the next few days, except for some minor incidents, Griseo lived a very peaceful life.

Every day, she stayed with Alyona, painted, and played with the Yetis. Through telepathy, she learned about the situation with the snakes from time to time.

As for why it was so peaceful, it was because the location of the camp was to be moved. Although there were many things to do inside the camp, there were no long-distance missions for the time being.

For things inside the camp, Griseo herself could not help much; at most, she asked her partners to help.

However, there was a small incident that caused quite a stir, but the result was pretty good in the eyes of the little girl.

As for what the incident was, when most of the camp personnel moved, Patriot invited Griseo—no, it should be said that he invited her partners—to have a competition.

Long before, Patriot knew the strength of the little girl's partner through various statements and information provided by others, but he had never found an opportunity or a venue to test it.

One reason was that he and Sakura didn't fight at that time. Once they did, unless they ran far away, innocent people would be affected.

If he chose to control his power, Patriot couldn't get the result he wanted, so he didn't fight.

So, with most of the people in the camp having moved away first, Patriot had the opportunity for such a test.

And the impact of this spar did not surprise Patriot. The small area of the test site was destroyed, and even the farther places were affected.

However, the result this time, in a sense, really overturned Patriot's understanding of Griseo and the unknown organization behind her.

Because Patriot lost.

After he slowly exerted all his strength as the battle time lengthened, he was still defeated by the azure knight, and he could feel that the knight fighting with him still had a lot of strength left.

Later, what completely silenced Patriot was that Griseo gently waved the brush, and the azure color emerged, almost instantly repairing the damage on the knight that he had caused...

Finally, Griseo used her strength in this battle to gain the recognition of Patriot.

At the same time, it also made Patriot and others understand that the strength of the little girl and the Pink haired Cautus were more than just talk.

...

After this little incident, Griseo followed Patriot and went directly to the new Reunion movement camp, returning to a peaceful life.

However, although life was peaceful, the little girl had not forgotten about W's group of mercenaries, and she was quietly waiting for their arrival.

Although Griseo was a little reluctant to contact W, if she really contacted her to unlock the Herrscher of Sentience... the little girl would have to bite the bullet when she arrived.

——————————————————————

It was another morning, and the thin sunlight through the clouds added a touch of warmth to the cold snowfield.

Griseo woke up naturally that morning. After waiting for Alyona for a while, the two of them washed up together before leaving the tent and going to have breakfast as usual.

To be honest, if Griseo was still in a daze before leaving the tent, then after leaving the tent and facing the cold wind blowing in her face... she was very awake.

Then the two of them didn't walk for long before they came to the campfire, skillfully finding the location of Talulah and the others, and then sat with them.

"Good morning, little Griseo, Alyona."

"Morning~"

"You two got up really early~"

...

"Good morning, everyone..."

Facing the greetings of a group of people, Griseo gently blinked her big violet eyes and then responded.

Alyona, who was sitting next to her, was even more brief, without any extra words. After nodding to the person who greeted her, she whispered, "Good morning, everyone..."

However, they had become familiar with each other in the past few days.

Both Talulah and the Yetis had long been accustomed to Alyona's cold personality and didn't care at all.

Because they found that this little ursus rescued by Griseo is also a good child. In fact, she is a very good seedling...

That's right, Alyona had awakened her originium arts when she escaped from the mine before.

It's just that she had been well protected by Griseo later, so she had never used it again.

After knowing this, whether it was Talulah, Yelena, or the Yetis, they all wanted to train Alyona. However, because she was still young at 14, her body was relatively weak, and her injuries had not recovered, no one had taken action yet.

Of course, it was only the training of force that was blocked by various factors.

There was another person who had already set his sights on Alyona before... and was planning to take action now.

...

After the group finished breakfast, Talulah stopped smiling at some point and then looked at Griseo with a serious expression, organizing her words in her mind.

There was another very important thing that she hadn't told the two little ones yet.

If it was just Alyona, Talulah would still think it was nothing, but with Griseo it was different. She felt that it was still necessary to give her a good warning to avoid any problems later.

"Hmm?"

Perhaps because Talulah's eyes were too serious, Griseo soon felt it, and then tilted her head slightly and looked back in confusion.

"Ahem..."

Talulah was caught off guard by Griseo's innocent gaze. She couldn't help but cough twice to cover up her embarrassment before she spoke:

"I have something to tell you two, especially you, little one, keep it in mind."

"What is it?"

Griseo blinked her big eyes, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, and then she was ready to listen seriously.

Alyona was almost the same. She also looked up at Talulah, quietly waiting for her answer.

And the group around them seemed to have guessed what was going on, and they all quieted down, watching the scene in front of them.

"What you need to pay attention to is..."

Chapter 66 Precautions and Guests

"What you need to pay attention to is not to run around today. If possible, you should stay in the tent or stay with Alina."

Looking at the two cute children in front of her, Talulah's tone softened, and then she whispered.

"Well... Talulah, can you tell me why?"

Although she had listened to Talulah's precautions, Griseo was still a little confused. At the same time, she had a guess in her heart, but this guess still needed to be confirmed.

"This... because a large number of guests will come to the camp today, and if possible, not only today, but also on ordinary days, you should try not to contact them."

After listening to Griseo's words, Talulah was slightly stunned, and after struggling for a while, she told the story.

Although the people who came today were invited by her, if nothing unexpected happened, they would join Reunion next.

However, this did not prevent Talulah from wanting Griseo to avoid contacting them, especially after knowing the characteristics of the little girl. Before she knew about it, she could still ignore it because of the strength of Griseo's partner. But after knowing it, she planned to start guarding against it.

Not only Talulah, but others also had almost the same idea.

After all, including Talulah, no one close to Griseo wanted to see a little girl forced to be tainted with bad influences and become bad.

Of course, this is not to discriminate against today's guests and future colleagues, but mainly because their various reputations are too prominent. As a result, Talulah and others have to pay attention to it.

Otherwise, it would be bad if their little cutie was negatively influenced by carelessness.

"Okay... got it."

Hearing this, Griseo was slightly stunned. After understanding Talulah's intention, she gently nodded her head and agreed.

Talulah's answer this time almost confirmed the little girl's guess that had just emerged in her mind... W and the Sarkaz mercenaries were coming.

However, although Griseo understood Talulah's good intentions, she still had to find an opportunity to contact them secretly.

Not even mentioning W, she had to try it just for Mudrock...

To be honest, every time at this moment, Griseo would suddenly realize that she didn't seem to be a good child. Because from entering the Reunion Movement to now, she found that she seemed to have done a lot of things behind everyone's back.

Good, bad, what can be said, what can't be said... There are already quite a few.

But there are many things that Griseo can't not do or give up... For example, if she doesn't care about it this time and lets the Sarkaz girl go, she doesn't know when she will meet her again.

Maybe they will be enemies next time... The little girl feels terrible when she thinks about it.

So she has set her sights on Rhodes Island!

"Alyona, you are older than the little one and you are her elder sister. Please help me keep an eye on her and don't let her run around."

Although Griseo agreed obediently, for some reason, Talulah still felt a little uneasy, so she turned her head and looked at Alyona beside her and said.

In fact, before Alyona said her age, no one thought she was actually 14 years old...

Because this girl is too thin, severe malnutrition not only makes her skinny but also makes her body completely undeveloped, and she doesn't look like a 14-year-old at all.

"Well... I will."

Hearing this, Alyona did not rush to agree but first looked at the cute little girl next to her with her light green eyes before agreeing.

In other matters, Little Ursus is a firm supporter of Griseo, but in this matter, she will still slightly lean towards Talulah and the others.

After all, Alyona is also one of those who know Griseo's characteristics and has also seen how uncomfortable she is when she is affected. So the little white bear naturally didn't want her caring partner to be tainted by dirty things because of contact with messy people.

"꒪꒫꒪)?"

When she heard her own Alyona's agreement, a trace of panic and doubt flashed in Griseo's big violet eyes, and a big question mark slowly appeared on her little head.

It was as if she couldn't believe the sudden "betrayal" of her partner.

"..."

After Alyona noticed Griseo's gaze towards her, a trace of guilt flashed in her light green eyes. But even so, this time she did not soften under the gaze of the little girl...

"Heh~ Okay, little Griseo, stop staring at Alyona."

Looking at Griseo's cute look, Alina on the side finally couldn't help but chuckle, and then said gently:

"You two little guys follow me today, I can also take you to meet new friends and learn knowledge together. How about it?"

"..."

Alina's sudden words made the two little guys stunned, especially Alyona who was mentioned by name.

"I can do anything..."

After understanding the meaning of Alyona's words, Alyona said directly without hesitation. After saying that, she did not forget to turn her head to look at Griseo on the side, waiting for her answer.

Alyona is not opposed to learning and making friends, but she is far from being positive or proactive.

"Well, I don't have a problem either." Hearing this, Griseo thought about it for a while and agreed. However, the reason why Griseo agreed was not because she really wanted to attend classes and make new friends, but because she wanted Alyona to learn and make friends. Because the little girl knew her too well. If she said she wouldn't go, then the little white bear wouldn't go either.

"Okay, then it's settled. Don't run away later."

After hearing the answers of the two little guys, Alyona smiled gently and said happily.

"Well..."

...

Not too long after, after everyone chatted around the campfire for a while, breakfast was finally over, and everyone had to get busy again. Talulah went to make plans for receiving guests and arranging accommodation, while Griseo and Alyona kept their promises and followed Alima honestly.

Chapter 67 The Arrival of the Mercenaries

Just like that, Griseo and Alyona stayed with Alina all morning, even remaining in the tent as lunchtime approached. They weren't worried about lunch since someone would bring it to them.

"Hmm..."

Although Griseo knew that everyone was doing this for her own good, she really wanted to go out and take a look. Now, the little girl regretted making such a big fuss and revealing so much.

However, Griseo was not completely unaware of the outside situation. She knew that the Sarkaz mercenaries had arrived and that Talulah was now negotiating with them.

As for how the little girl knew, it was because she had sent out her servants. Although she couldn't see it herself, she could learn about the situation outside through her companions.

Even so, Griseo was still very bored...

She wanted to paint, but she also knew that once she entered the painting state, she would be completely immersed in her own world and unaware of the outside world.

At other times, this wouldn't be a problem, but now that she had a new partner, the little girl didn't want to ignore Alyona because she was immersed in painting.

So, in this case, Griseo decided to finish lunch quickly at noon and take a short nap.

As for the matter of looking for the Sarkaz girl, it would have to be postponed for the time being.

After all, many people were keeping a close eye on Griseo now, practically guarding her. So even if she wanted to go, she would have to wait until later to find an opportunity.

...

After a while, lunch was delivered, and Griseo did finish the meal quickly as she planned. Then she lay on the bed before Alyona and prepared to take a nap. The little girl's good sleep schedule made her feel sleepy quickly, and her big violet eyes soon filled with mist...

On the other side—

"Tell me, where are they?"

At this moment, a man in black with a heavy gas mask on his face and several tubes inserted behind him looked at the thin infected person lying on the ground in front of him and asked in a deep voice.

His voice was filled with undisguised arrogance and a trace of very well-disguised contempt and disdain.

"I... huh... I don't know!"

The infected person lying on the ground was panting nervously and painfully and answered loudly.

"Really? Keep going... until you find out where they are."

After hearing this answer, the strange man in black turned around and gave an order without even glancing at the infected person lying on the ground.

"Ah! Don't... save... ahhhh!"

...

After a while, after getting the information they wanted, one of them came to the man in black and reported in an unusually respectful tone:

"Sir, the whereabouts of the target have been found out. What should we do next?"

"Get rid of the garbage, and then we'll chase after him."

The man, known as one of the Emperor's Blades, listened to the report, and a red light flashed in his mask. He waved his hand carelessly and then ordered.

"Yes, sir."

——————————————————

"If this is the condition you offered, Talulah, then we agree. Happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation."

After constant negotiations, both Talulah and the Sarkaz mercenaries were satisfied with the current results.

This large number of Sarkaz mercenaries joined the integration movement and settled near the camp. However, the Sarkaz mercenaries usually act in small teams, so they are relatively scattered, but generally not too far away.

Beside the campfire—

While roasting the fire, Talulah looked at the place where the mercenaries were stationed and sighed:

“Now, Reunion has a lot more manpower.”

“Indeed, there are a lot more, but you still have to be careful,” Yelena said, looking up at Talulah coldly.

“Yes, big sister is right. After all, they are Sarkaz mercenaries.”

“I remember that there are very few teams with a bad reputation, and we really need to pay more attention to them.”

“Yes, especially we have to keep an eye on little Griseo… But without the little guy to eat with us, it feels like something is missing.”

“Yes, it’s boring without the little guy."

After Yelena spoke, the Yetis also expressed their opinions one after another. Many even missed Griseo who was “forced” to stay in the tent.

"Well, we really need to be careful. There are indeed some mercenaries with bad personalities among these mercenaries."

After listening to the Yetis' words, Talulah nodded gently.

Just then, a person rushed to the campfire in a panic, or more precisely, rushed to Talulah and others.

"No... It's bad. A large number of people are approaching the camp. They look very well-equipped... They look like they mean trouble."

After stopping, the person looked up at Talulah and Yelena and said anxiously.

"What!"

After hearing this, Talulah and Yelena stood up almost instantly, their expressions becoming serious.

"Quick, let everyone be alert!" Yelena ordered the Yetis beside her after standing up.

Talulah also looked at the infected person who came to report and said, "Lead the way, I'll go and see."

"Yes!"

Almost instantly, everyone took action according to their duties, and Talulah and Yelena, led by the reporter, quickly rushed towards the direction of the enemy.

At this moment, Talulah and Yelena both hoped that there would not be any difficult enemies among the invaders. They also hoped that Patriot who went out could come back quickly...

Otherwise, with a large number of enemies and elite troops, the personnel of this integration movement might suffer significant losses.

...

While Talulah and Yelena rushed over, the enemy was already very close. After seeing the person in the lead, wearing a heavy gas mask, both Talulah and Yelena became extremely solemn.

Because they recognized that it was the very difficult opponent, "Emperor's Blade."

Chapter 68: Chaos and Awakening

At this moment, the periphery of the Reunion Movement camp was in chaos, with many people fighting each other, and the center of this chaos was the silver-haired Draco who was fighting with the Royal Guard.

However, Talulah was no longer the same as before. Now she had improved her fighting skills and strength, so she had the upper hand in this battle.

What made Talulah feel uncomfortable was that the Emperor's Blade fighting with her was still telling the infected people around her about her identity as the Duke's daughter.

Although the Draco herself no longer cared about this identity, the Blade's publicity still shook the determination of many infected people.

At this moment, Talulah no longer wanted to continue fighting with the Emperor's Blade in front of her, so the sword in her hand became sharper, and the flames around her body became hotter. At the same time, Yelena also secretly organized a retreat.

After all, there were still many children and injured people in the camp, and this time, in addition to the Royal Guard, there were also a large number of troops in the attack.

However, it was obvious that the enemy had been prepared for a long time, and it was too late to do this now...

Because at some point, an Emperor's Blade with troops appeared behind the Reunion Movement camp and blocked everyone's retreat from behind.

After blocking the retreat, another Emperor's Blade was not idle either, crossing the camp with a scimitar in hand, aiming directly at Talulah.

————————————————————

"Hu... Little Griseo, Alyona! Wake up!"

The door of the tent was suddenly opened, and Alina rushed in anxiously, shouting at the two little ones who were still sleeping on the bed.

Alina, who had just been attracted by the commotion outside, went out to investigate the situation. After understanding what was going on, her head buzzed and she rushed back directly from outside.

"Hmm..."

After hearing Alina's voice, Griseo's eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her big eyes with confusion and turned her head to look at the little Elafia standing in the tent.

Obviously, the little loli didn't know what had happened. She was suddenly called up and was still in a daze. Alyona's state was similar to hers. She was still confused and had no idea what had happened.

"What's wrong? Sister Alina..."

Griseo sat up, rubbed her big eyes, and looked at Alina in confusion.

"..."

Hearing this, Alyona also turned her head and looked at Alina, waiting for her answer.

"You two should get up quickly. The camp was attacked. There are quite a few people coming! And there are also tricky enemies!"

Looking at the two confused little ones, Alina frowned slightly, walked to the bed, and explained in a somewhat anxious tone.

"꒪꒫꒪)!"

Alina's words instantly made both Griseo and Alyona completely awake, and they were no longer sleepy. Even the discomfort of being suddenly woken up subsided a lot.

However, compared with Alyona, Griseo's reaction was even greater. She quickly got out of the bed and stood on it.

Next, there was no need for the little loli to call. The huge azure knight and the azure attendant appeared at the bedside at the same time, waiting for her command.

"Mr. Attendant, please stay to protect Sister Alina and the others, and then... Mr. Knight, take me to find Talulah."

After saying that, Griseo took a few steps forward and stood by the bed.

"..."

And Mr. Knight also picked up his little princess skillfully and moved quickly outside. Only the big and small creatures in the tent were left looking at each other.

……

After leaving the tent, it was almost unnecessary for Griseo to identify the direction of the main battlefield, because it was too obvious.

However, at the same time, the little girl also noticed that there were enemies coming from the rear, so before rushing over, she released her tyrant uncle and asked him to deal with the enemies in the rear.

"……"

Griseo, who was sitting quietly on the knight's arm, finally couldn't help rubbing her big eyes that were a little sore again. To be honest, the little girl really didn't think that during her nap, such a big situation would occur in the camp...

If Griseo had known earlier, she would not have taken a nap at noon!

She could have directly annihilated the enemy outside in advance... There was no need for so much trouble.

————————————————————

After the rear road was completely blocked, Yelena could only temporarily give up the preparation for evacuation, and pulled herself out of the battle to help Talulah who was fighting 1 vs 2.

But it was obvious that the fighting power of the two Blades could not be matched by Yelena alone, so even if she came to help, the two were still suppressed by the inner guards and even suffered some minor injuries.

But at this moment, neither Talulah nor Yelena had any intention of retreating, and they still took on the attacks of the two Blades.

Although on the surface, the situation now seems to be a stalemate... In fact, whether it is the battle of the leader on Talulah's side or the battle of ordinary infected people, Reunion is at an absolute disadvantage.

In addition, due to the identity of Talulah promoted by one of the Emperor's Blade before, many infected people were seriously shaken for a while, and even desperate.

So when Griseo arrived, what she saw was a chaotic confrontation, and the injured Talulah and Yelena.

"!"

Just when the little loli was surprised, a scimitar with a cold light appeared behind Talulah at some point and slashed towards her quickly.

"Mr. Knight!"

Accompanied by Griseo's angry call, the blue knight holding his princess appeared behind Talulah at almost the speed of a flash, holding the Draco's shoulder with his big hand, blocking the attack for her.

"Ding——"

The Blade's attack was blocked, and the sharp scimitar quickly passed through Mr. Knight's back, bringing a string of sparks... But upon closer inspection, Mr. Knight was not seriously injured, and only a small white mark was left on his body.

"What... what is this?"

Looking at the knight and the little loli who suddenly appeared, the two Emperor's Blade slowed down their movements a little, silently looking at the half-knight who had suddenly appeared.

Not only the two Royal Guards, but also the others who had never seen Mr. Knight, were secretly looking at him at this moment, and also remembered this cute little guy Griseo.

Chapter 69: Anger and Seal

While the Emperor's Blades and others were looking at Griseo, she was also looking at the Emperor's Blades and the invading enemies...

To be honest, the little girl had never thought that the camp would be attacked suddenly this time, and the leaders were actually the Emperor's Blades, and there were two of them.

Now, Griseo felt a little troubled... but it was just trouble.

At this moment, the little girl's eyes swept across Talulah and Yelena. After seeing the dazzling red, she slowly lowered her eyes, covering the boundless anger and coldness that emerged in her eyes.

"End this unfunny play... Mr. Knight."

As Griseo's indifferent murmur fell, the azure color burst out, and the already huge knight became even bigger and more burly under the rendering of the color, and the blade of the giant sword in his hand became sharper.

The sudden change of the azure knight made everyone present look at him subconsciously. The two Blades seemed to have suddenly sensed some danger, and their nerves were tense and alert.

However, the Azure Knight did not attack and hurt people as they imagined, but gracefully put the barefoot little loli in his arms on the ground, and then...

The air wave rolled, and the huge knight disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he was in front of an Emperor's Blade, with a huge palm clenched, and punched out.

The Emperor's Blade was unable to dodge and was hit directly, and then the whole person flew backwards.

As for why the Azure Knight did not use a big sword, but used fists, and even controlled his strength... Of course, it was because of Griseo's secret order.

The reason is simple. Because of the characteristics of the Emperor's Blades, which is akin to human bombs, Griseo cannot directly kill the two guys who hurt her partners.

The lives of the two enemies are not worthy of being buried with many of her friends and the entirety of Reunion.

After the knight punched away an Emperor's Blade, he quickly turned his eyes to the remaining one, and then rushed over quickly. Since then, the azure knight has directly held the two Blades by himself, leaving them with no energy to worry about other things.

Afterwards, in the surprised eyes of everyone including Talulah, Griseo quickly set up the easel, took out the brush and other painting tools, and even took out the huge cross-specific weapon [Elysian Astra].

Then, the little loli mixed the colors on the palette and directly entered the painting state in this chaotic scene. The models this time were the two Emperor's Blade who were fighting with her own knight.

"Quick... kill that girl!"

One of the Emperor's Blades who was suppressed by the azure knight took the time to shout at the soldiers who were fighting.

The power of the knight monster in front of them made the two Blades feel threatened, but they also saw that this monster had a great relationship with Griseo.

Since there was no way to kill the knight in front of them directly, they planned to kill the little girl who looked weak over there. After hearing the orders from the Emperor's Blades, many soldiers began to turn their spearheads, aiming directly at the blue-haired little loli who was immersed in the painting world in the middle of the battlefield.

A large number of Originium Arts attacked, flashing with light and attacking Griseo.

Seeing this scene, whether it was Talulah, Griseo or the Yetis, they all subconsciously left the current battle to block the attacks from all over the sky.

But there were too many and too fast. No matter how they blocked it, there were still many fish that slipped through the net and attacked the little loli...

As for the upcoming attack, the actions of her companions, and the complicated eyes of other members of the Reunion Movement, Griseo seemed to know nothing, without any dodge or defense.

However, just when many people thought that Griseo would be injured or even die... a bloody figure with silent rage, accompanied by annihilation black flames, blocked the princess.

The next moment, the blazing black flames erupted, rising out of thin air and annihilating all the attacks from all over the sky.

Then, the cruel Tyrant summoned a giant sword and began to judge, personally executing the many criminals who dared to hurt the princess.

At this time, Talulah and Yelena also reacted, took this opportunity to organize the infected in the melee, and began to fight back.

Because of the tyrant, the original disadvantage of Reunion was directly swept away, and the emotions of the infected were also driven, and they fought back frantically.

After noticing that the number of people they brought was decreasing, and there was another scarlet monster wreaking havoc in the field, the two Emperor's Blades looked at each other.

Then they found the right opportunity, one of them quickly drew his sword to attract the Azure Knight, and then the other slashed several people in front of him and rushed towards Griseo who was still painting.

"Little Griseo, be careful!"

After seeing this scene, Talulah's peripheral vision subconsciously wanted to return to defense.

But because the distance had been pulled away, and the speed of this Blade was surprisingly fast, even if the Originium Arts was used, it was not able to stop him for a while.

"Be careful!"

Yelena on the other side was in a similar situation. Her Originium Arts burst out, and the black ice attacked the sneaking Emperor's Blade...

But it was completely blocked by the Blade's Originium Arts, and it only slowed him down for a moment.

Soon, the sharp scimitar in the Blade's hand, which was shining with cold light, was getting closer and closer to Griseo...

However, at this moment, some people also noticed the abnormality.

Whether it was the Azure Knight who was fighting with another Emperor's Blade or the Scarlet Tyrant who was slaughtering the army, they had no intention of returning to defend their little princess.

It was as if they didn't see that Griseo was about to be threatened... Even the blue-haired little loli herself didn't change her expression and eyes, and she still calmly put down the brush.

And just when Griseo's last stroke fell, colorful colors instantly burst out from the painting, floating beside the little loli to block the close attack for her.

While blocking the attack of the Blade, these colors seemed to have life. In full view of the crowd, they quickly attached to and wrapped the Emperor's Blade who came to attack, pulling him into the painting.

The Emperor's Blade who was still under the attack of the knight on the other side paused when he saw this scene. His whole body was shouting for him to escape, and he took actual action.

However, it didn't work. The colorful colors quickly caught up with him and slowly dragged him back to the painting belonging to the "Emperor's Blade."

"Done."

All those who saw this horrifying scene in front of them were stunned and quieted down. At the same time, the chill slowly climbed up their backs and shivered.

Chapter 70: End

"..."

All those who saw this horrifying scene were stunned and quieted down, and at the same time, a chill slowly climbed up their backs, causing them to shudder.

However, Griseo never cared about the opinions and reactions of others and didn't even give them a second glance. The little loli silently put away the easel and special weapons, then looked at Talulah and the others expressionlessly.

In front of everyone, she quickly turned around and left the chaotic scene, walking towards the tent where she had slept before.

When they saw that Griseo was about to leave, almost everyone subconsciously made way, leaving a large space around her. Some even looked at her petite back with fear...

Of course, while there were those who were afraid, there were also a few who looked at Griseo with excitement, curiosity, and exploration.

As for why Griseo chose to leave so quickly, the reason was very simple. She had promised Talulah and the others not to run around, and having made such a scene, she thought it best to retreat. Besides, surrounded by so many people, all she saw was a mixture of colors, which made her uncomfortable. She didn't want to stay in the crowd any longer.

As for the chaotic battlefield outside, Griseo felt that it was more than enough to leave it to Talulah and Mr. Knight.

After watching Griseo leave safely, Talulah and Yelena were relieved. They then retracted their gazes and began to encircle and suppress the last enemy.

————————————————————

In the camp—

Before Griseo could return to the tent, she met Alina and many children and wounded who were outside. The servants were also busy helping at this moment.

"Little Griseo is not injured, right?"

Seeing the little girl who looked no different from when she went out, Alina approached and asked with a somewhat anxious expression. Alyona, who was sitting on the side, also quickly stood up and walked to Griseo's side, her light green eyes scanning Griseo's petite body to check her condition.

"Um... No, and there was nothing going on over there, so I came back," Griseo said, looking up at Alina and then gently shaking her head.

"It's good that you're fine. Little Griseo helped a lot again this time." After hearing Griseo's words, Alina slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

But before Alina could fully relax, she noticed that Griseo seemed a little off.

Just as she was about to ask something, Griseo took the first step...

"..."

Griseo took a step and threw herself into Alina's arms, holding her motionlessly, then closed her big eyes with a complicated expression.

"Sister is here... Don't worry, it's okay~"

Although Alina didn't know what had happened just now, it didn't stop her from gently comforting the "frightened" cute child in her arms.

At this moment, Griseo listened to Alina's gentle words and felt the warm color on her body. The influence she had received before began to slowly fade away.

Alyona, who was standing aside, knew Griseo's current situation through her own observation. After all, she had seen her friend in this state before when they were in the mine before.

So, understanding the situation, Alyona gently pulled the corner of Alina's clothes and then whispered to her, "It should be that there are too many people outside, and Griseo was affected by them..."

"...Okay, I know."

After listening to Alyona's whispered explanation, Alina was stunned for a moment, then reacted and nodded gently.

She then carefully hugged the little one in her arms and walked towards the tent not far behind her. Although Alina was curious about how Alyona knew this, she knew it was not the time to ask.

The most urgent thing was to move Griseo to a place where there was no one so that the little one could stay alone for a while.

…

After taking Griseo back to the tent, Alina continued to comfort her softly.

Finally, after getting the little loli's consent and giving her a good warning, Alina left her alone in the quiet tent and went out to continue taking care of the wounded.

In fact, Alina and the children and wounded she was taking care of should have evacuated the camp earlier. However, they were initially blocked by the enemy who suddenly surrounded them from behind, forcing them to retreat to the camp.

When they planned to break through and evacuate for the second time, they saw that all the enemies in the back were eliminated by the scarlet tyrant before they could get there...

After that, everyone saw the powerful tyrant running to the front for support, and coupled with the one-sided situation in front, they finally gave up the evacuation temporarily. After all, there were many children, the elderly, the weak, and the disabled in this team. If it was not necessary, no one wanted to retreat so eagerly.

————————————————

Finally, with the help of the Azure Knight and the Scarlet Tyrant, Talulah quickly dealt with and suppressed all the enemies.

However, when the Tyrant was about to deal with the last few enemies, he was stopped by Talulah.

The reason why the Draco did this was simple: she planned to leave a few people alive to "friendly" ask for information.

After all, this time they were attacked directly in the newly moved camp, which really caught them off guard.

This was also something Talulah had never encountered in the trial of the painting. Although she knew that Griseo was there, the situation was not exactly the same.

However, this also sounded an alarm for her, making her more cautious. At the same time, it made her more eager for power and determined to become stronger quickly. No normal person likes to hide behind others all the time, and Talulah was no exception, especially since she was now one of the leaders of the Reunion Movement.

In this situation, she couldn't and was unwilling to just hide behind the child Griseo and be protected...

Chapter 71: Current Situation and Shadow

This time, except for some casualties, Reunion did not suffer much loss with the help of Griseo. The mercenary group was almost unscathed.

The only problem was that a few infected people in Reunion became shaken after hearing the words of the inner guard and began to question Talulah. However, this kind of thing is not a big problem for the transformed Talulah. She will naturally have a way to deal with it.

Now she will not let these infected people who want to leave, leave as easily as before, and she won't stupidly send them food. Since the choice was made before, if they want to give up now, they will naturally have to pay a price.

Talulah has planned to relocate the location of the garrison and has ordered the personnel of Reunion to rest. After resting, she plans to lead everyone to take action. Because the enemy has come here, it is no longer safe. If they continue to stay here, they will only be harassed by the enemy.

In addition, two Emperor's Blades went missing here. Given the importance and special nature of the Blades, it is possible that the higher-ups will send other Emperor's Blades to investigate.

With the current situation of the Reunion movement, it will still be very difficult to encounter the internal guards again. Even if Griseo takes action when caught off guard, it is not certain that there will be no casualties.

So for safety, Talulah is urgently organizing people to relocate. However, they must discuss the migration plan and the stationing location with someone. At this moment, Talulah is discussing the next arrangements with Patriot, Yelena, and others who have already rushed back.

————————————————————————

"Hmm..."

Griseo, who was alone in the tent, calmed down completely after sitting for a while.

Therefore, at the same time, a trace of depression flashed in her beautiful violet eyes.

This was the second time that Griseo had faced that situation. To be honest, if she hadn't run fast just now, she might have been stained with someone else's color.

Sure enough, she was not suitable to stay in the crowd at all now, and she accidentally became someone else's color.

"..."

Suddenly, Griseo seemed to have thought of something and slowly stood up from the bed.

Then, with a thought, a painting of a knight fighting a "monster" appeared in her little hand. This painting was the one the little girl had just painted on the battlefield to seal the Two Emperor's Blades, and it was simply and crudely named "Emperor's Blades".

The scene was too chaotic just now, and Griseo was somewhat affected, so she left in a hurry.

As a result, she forgot to hand over the painting to Talulah.

As for why she had to hand over the painting to Talulah, it was naturally because the little girl had no use for it herself. All she could do was keep it or destroy it directly.

So instead of keeping it with herself, Griseo felt that it would be more useful to hand it over to Talulah.

At that time, whether it is directly destroyed to increase infamy or deter the enemy, or used as a bargaining chip, it is a very good choice; at least it will be more useful than leaving it in the little girl's own hands.

However, Griseo is now in a dilemma about how to hand over the painting in her hand to Talulah. To be honest, the little girl actually wants to go out and take a look, but she doesn't want to go through the situation just now.

After all, if she is not careful and gets stained with some bad colors, it will definitely cause trouble for Talulah, Yelena, and others.

...

Finally, after a lot of hesitation, Griseo chose to leave the tent and deliver the painting herself, and by the way, go and see what is happening outside. Well... it is definitely not because she wants to see the mercenary group, absolutely not.

"꒪꒫꒪)?"

However, when Griseo lifted the curtain of the tent and saw the person standing at the door looking at her with worried light green eyes, a question mark slowly appeared on her little head.

Obviously, the little girl didn't expect or notice that there would be someone standing outside the tent waiting for her.

"Are you feeling better?"

Looking at the blue-haired little girl coming out of the tent, Alyona asked softly.

"It's all right now. Has Alyona been guarding the door?" Hearing this, Griseo shook her head gently.

"No... I just got here." When she said this, Alyona turned her head slightly to avoid the sight, and at the same time, a trace of unnoticeable guilt flashed in her light green eyes.

And this moment of guilt was also very keenly noticed by Griseo, but she didn't intend to expose it, and asked with a normal expression:

"Well... I'm going out for a while. Does Alyona want to go with me?"

"Weren't you feeling uncomfortable just now... Do you have to go out now?" After listening to Griseo's words, Alyona frowned slightly and said in her hoarse voice.

"Well, I just remembered something important. I have to go find Talulah now." Seeing Alyona's disapproval on her face, Griseo explained in a low voice.

Then, as if she remembered something, the little girl added: "If Alyona is worried, you can go with me. I will protect you."

After that, Griseo stared at the little white bear in front of her with her beautiful eyes, waiting for her answer.

"...Okay."

Alyona, who wanted to say something else, swallowed her words after meeting the little girl's eyes, and then agreed.

Then, Griseo happily pulled Alyona and carried her out of the tent to find Talulah and observe the current situation of the camp.

……

Hedley, who was sitting by the campfire near his tent, looked at the two comrades beside him and asked:

"Did you figure out what race that little girl was?"

As a battle-hardened Sarkaz mercenary, Hedley thought he had seen a lot, but after meeting up with Reunion today, what he saw was somewhat beyond his expectations.

He had never seen the Originium arts of Griseo in his life. The summoned creatures were not only powerful, but could even pull people into a painting...

"No, there is no racial feature on that child. Moreover, her shadow..."

After hearing Hedley's words, the female mercenary with black hair and a pair of sharp horns sitting beside him ended her contemplation and spoke. But when she said the latter part, she paused for a while, as if she was organizing her words.

Chapter 72: Creepy and Curious

"No, there is no racial feature on that child. And, her shadow..."

After hearing Hedley's words, Ines, who had been sitting beside him with a thoughtful expression, spoke.

But when she said the latter part, she paused for a moment, as if she was organizing her words.

"Her shadow gave me a very scary and complicated feeling, which was simply creepy. And, I didn't see through her at all."

After speaking, the black-haired girl, Ines, narrowed her golden eyes, with a long-lost expression that was a little complicated.

"It actually gave you this kind of feeling. It seems that this child is more dangerous than she shows." Hearing this, Hedley gently raised his eyebrows and said with a somewhat unexpected expression.

He originally thought that what Griseo showed was already powerful enough, but he didn't expect that she would give his comrade Ines such a feeling.

In this case, Hedley couldn't help but slightly raise his estimate of the little girl.

You know, Ines's Originium Arts is very special. She can observe other people's shadows and see into their hearts...

This time, not only did she not see anything, but she was scared.

"So, what do you think, W?"

Hedley turned his eyes to the other side, where the silver-haired, red-horned mercenary girl was walking in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

Hearing Hedley's words, W slowly turned her face and said indifferently: "Oh, you are talking about that kid, Talulah and the others seem to take her very seriously."

"Also, although there is some distance, the child does not seem to be infected... a small non-infected person, mixed in with a group of infected people, it is really interesting~"

Speaking of the latter, the indifference on W's face disappeared, replaced by the excitement in her golden eyes and the playful smile on the corner of her mouth.

"..."

Seeing W like this, Ines knew what her comrade wanted to do without even thinking about it.

Although she knew that the possibility of stopping her was not great... But as a friend, she felt that she still needed to remind her and go through the procedure.

"W... You said saw thar the child is so valued, so don't go close to her, otherwise, you might just get kicked out."

"Tsk, I won't do anything."

After listening to Ines's reminder, W lightly clicked her tongue, and then put away the playful smile on her face.

However, although the smile was put away, the excitement and curiosity in her eyes did not subside at all.

"Listen to Ines, pay attention. The summoned creature of that child is not weak."

Looking at W like this, Hedley spread his hands helplessly, and then warned.

However, knowing W's character, he didn't say much, and after saying these two sentences, he stopped talking.

————————————————————

"..."

Griseo, who was walking with Alyona at the moment, began to regret a little.

Although the little girl's expression did not change, and even her eyes did not change, she subconsciously tightened her grip on her friend's hand.

As for why she regretted it...

The reason is very simple, because the power she showed before directly caused her to be highly noticed when she left the tent this time.

It was even more terrifying than before. If people used to look at Griseo just out of curiosity and wonder, they would lose interest soon after looking at her.

Now, it was naked attention. Wherever the little girl went, people looked at her in all kinds of ways...

Although most of them were not malicious, and the distance was not very close, this time Griseo did feel a little uncomfortable.

The little girl thought that she would not care about other people's eyes and behaviors because of the memory of "Griseo"...

But now she found out that she was wrong. It's not that she didn't care, but she didn't care to a certain extent.

"Huh?"

After feeling that the little hand holding her was a little stronger, Alyona was slightly stunned, and then quickly reacted and adjusted her position to block many gazes from Griseo.

"Do you feel uncomfortable? If so, let's go back. If the matter is important, I will help you find Talulah." After saying that, Alyona turned around and looked at Griseo with some concern.

"I'm fine, I'm just a little uncomfortable. It's okay, Alyona is by my side."

Looking at her friend's worried eyes, Griseo's eyes flickered slightly, and then she shook her head gently.

"..."

Hearing this, although Alyona didn't speak, her helpless eyes seemed to say that she really couldn't do anything to help.

"Well...Mr. Knight."

Looking at the helpless look of her companion, a smile flashed in Griseo's beautiful violet eyes. Then she called softly.

Since she was already feeling uncomfortable, the little girl naturally did not intend to waste time. Instead of walking slowly, she might as well directly call her own Knight.

Afterwards, the azure knight appeared, first bowed gracefully, then lightly picked up her little princess and her companion, and then continued to rush towards the target tower.

Because of the sudden appearance of the Knight, the eyes around Griseo were highly focused on her, which could be said to be reduced by half in an instant, and the remaining attention was almost completely blocked by the azure knight.

"Hmm..."

In response to this, Griseo didn't know what to say for a while.

If she had known that this group of people would be like this when they saw her own Knight, she would have summoned him directly when she left the tent.

...

Just when W was sitting by the bonfire and feeling a little bored, the sound of discussion at another bonfire not far away reached her ears intermittently.

She couldn't help but slightly narrow her golden eyes.

At the same time, the discussion over there was still going on...

“Just now, I saw that little girl and that knight over there, they seemed to be looking for something…”

And the two people beside her knew that W was getting excited and was going to make trouble when they saw her like this.

However, Ines and Hedley knew that W still had some sense in this regard, so they didn't say anything else.

Chapter 73: Contaminated by Griseo's Smile

Griseo, who was wandering in the camp and looking for Talulah in the arms of her own knight, suddenly seemed to notice something and turned her head slightly to the right.

At this moment, the azure knight seemed to understand the needs of his princess and stopped moving temporarily, just holding the two little guys in his arms quietly.

"..."

When Griseo turned her head to look, she met a pair of golden eyes full of excitement and inquiry.

After seeing who the owner of these eyes was, the little loli's heart was directly shocked, and she secretly thought it was not good.

Although Griseo had thought about taking the initiative to contact W before, it was just a thought. At least in the short term, she did not want to take action on this matter. But now it is obvious that the little girl has not made any move yet, as if she has been targeted by someone first...

Griseo, who knows W's personality well, can clearly and affirmatively say that she is interested in her after seeing the emotions in her eyes. If nothing unexpected happens, there will be no shortage of pranks and contacts in the future.

For a moment, the little girl didn't even know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing... If possible, she would even prefer to replace W with Mudrock, the pretty girl Sarkaz.

Of course, Griseo also knew that this was not realistic, so she just thought about it.

"Heh..."

W, who was not far away, saw the azure knight stop and the child in his arms looked at her. There was a light in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth slowly raised, showing a bad smirk to Griseo.

If it were an ordinary child, they would be suddenly shocked or even scared when they suddenly saw W's smile.

However, Griseo is not an ordinary child, and she can even be called special. But...

"..."

Griseo, who had been expressionless and without any emotion in her eyes, looked at W for a while and suddenly changed her aura after seeing her evil smirk and the mixed colors behind it.

The original innocent and pure aura of the little loli was swept away, replaced by a kind of madness and joy. And this seemingly contrasting temperament appeared on her body but unexpectedly did not violate the rules at all.

Then, Griseo stretched out her hand and gently stroked her delicate lips, and slowly raised the corners of her lips, giving W an almost identical evil smirk.

"..."

Perhaps because the contrast between the before and after was too strong, W was stunned when she saw Griseo's smile.

However, she quickly reacted, and her beautiful golden eyes were more interested and excited.

However, just when W was about to do something, she suddenly stopped her action. Although her eyes remained unchanged, she restrained the smile on her face. The pair of violet eyes full of madness at the moment of Griseo were suddenly covered by a pair of small hands covered with thin calluses.

This sudden situation directly blocked the little loli and W from looking at each other, or more accurately, blocked the little loli from continuing to look at the color on W.

At the same time——

Just after discussing the next plan with Patriot, Talulah, who left the tent, saw the azure knight and the two little guys in the knight's arms not far away...

Then the draco looked in the direction of Griseo, and when she saw the mercenary W, her mouth twitched.

Then when she noticed the smirk on her little guy's face, it can be said that her brain buzzed directly, and after reacting, she quickly ran towards Griseo.

"Why did you come out?"

After rushing to Griseo's side in one breath, Talulah carefully blocked her in front of her, blocking the eyes of others, and asked helplessly.

"..."

After hearing what Talulah said, Griseo, whose eyes were covered by Alyona's hands, just shook the hair on her head and did not answer her question.

Because the little loli has not yet escaped from W's influence, she needs to calm down.

And she is also afraid that once she opens her mouth, she will say the same mocking words as W...

"Hmm? Is it uncomfortable?"

Looking at Griseo who did not move and did not answer her question, Talulah frowned slightly, with a worried tone.

You know, although there is some distance, the draco just saw the smirk on Griseo's face clearly.

"It should be nothing, she's just stained with someone else's color." Looking at Talulah who frowned in front of her, Alyona slowly let go of her little hand and explained to her.

"..."

Hearing this, Talulah did not say anything else, but turned her head to look at W who was still standing not far away. After noticing the draco's gaze, W did not show any fear or avoidance, but spread her hands with a somewhat annoying expression.

Then she felt bored, and without stopping to wave, she turned around and left..

Seeing W like this, Talulah did not understand for a moment what she was doing...

"?"

At this moment, Yelena also noticed the situation here, and while walking towards this side, she did not forget to use her eyes to ask what happened.

"The little guy suddenly ran out, and then accidentally got stained with someone else's color. Let's go, let's find a place where no one is to let her slow down."

Facing Yelena's puzzled eyes, Talulah showed a helpless expression, and then explained.

After speaking, the Draco looked at the azure knight, and the meaning was self-evident.

"..."

After the knight nodded, a group of people moved towards the tent where they had just discussed the matter.

——————————————————

In the tent——

Although she was dyed with the color of W this time, because the contact time was not long, Griseo quickly withdrew from the color and returned to normal.

After she returned to normal, the others, including Patriot who had returned, all turned their eyes to her.

However, Talulah and Yelena just wanted to ask what happened to Griseo. And Patriot wanted to know about the two Emperor's Blades before.

Griseo, who was suddenly stared at by three people, had a trace of guilt in her big eyes, and then hurriedly explained: "Well... I remembered an important thing, so I came to find Talulah."

After all, the little loli still remembered that she ran away secretly... and she also remembered that she promised Talulah not to run around today.

Chapter 74: W's Discovery

"Hmm? You're looking for me, what's the matter?"

Although Talulah noticed the guilty look on her little girl's face, she didn't say anything. Instead, she reached out and rubbed her soft blue hair.

"Hmm..."

After not hearing the reproach she imagined, Griseo's eyes shone slightly. After blinking gently, she said, "That's it, the painting I drew before."

"It's useless to keep it, so I plan to give it to Talulah."

After the little Lolita finished speaking, she took out the "Emperor's Blades" from the space and handed it to Talulah.

At this moment, the eyes of the four people present subconsciously focused on the painting in Griseo's hand and observed it.

"Hmm... little guy, are they still alive?"

Looking at the painting handed to her, Talulah asked with a hint of curiosity in her eyes after reaching out to take it.

"I didn't hurt them, I just invited them into the world of the painting. If Talulah needs it, I can also let them out." After hearing Talulah's question, Griseo shook her little head gently, and then explained with a serious look.

After the little loli's voice fell, before Talulah had any reaction, Patriot on the side had red light flashing in his eyes, and it was unknown what he thought of. After all, just now his purpose or doubts have been solved.

However, even Patriot couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Griseo's ability is powerful.

Especially this ability to seal people in the painting, in addition to having some preparation time, it is simply a weapon to deal with human pollution bombs such as the Emperor's Blades. Even Patriot had to admit that if he didn't know Griseo's ability in advance, he might also be sealed in the painting like these two Royal Guards in a careless way.

"So, this painting is the same as the last one? You can let the person out, or you can tear up the painting directly." While speaking, Talulah did not forget to look at Griseo, asking for confirmation of her answer.

Although she had experienced it many times and had some experience, the little girl's specialness was there, and Talulah could not be completely sure that the painting in her hand was the same as the last one. So to be on the safe side, she asked again.

"Well, if you destroy the painting, everything inside will be destroyed. If you need to let the person out, you need to come to me." Hearing this, Griseo nodded her little head again.

"Thank you very much, little Griseo. You helped a lot this time." Looking at the well-behaved little girl in front of her, Talulah couldn't help but rub her little head again.

At the same time, Yelena and Patriot, who were standing aside, realized the value of the painting "Emperor's Blades" after listening to Griseo's explanation.

After all, you have to know that the Emperor's Blades is not easy to replenish. Two Emperor's Blades can be said to be good bargaining chips, and they are even light and portable.

Suddenly, Yelena seemed to remember something, and a smile appeared on her cold and serious face, and then she said softly to Griseo and Alyona:

"We will take action again and leave here. This time, little Griseo, you just follow the snow monsters."

"Okay..."

Griseo did not hesitate to what Yelena said, and agreed directly. The little loli had already guessed that Reunio would migrate again, and it could even be said that migration was inevitable. So she was not surprised at all.

However, this time, Griseo planned to help a little.

She planned to summon all the partners and let them scout the surrounding situation to ensure the safety of the team. It's to avoid the sudden attack like this noon today.

Afterwards, after telling her thoughts to Talulah and obtaining her consent, Griseo left here and went back to find her sister Alina.

——————————————————————

Mercenary encampment——

"Looks like you're in a good mood. You didn't bully that kid and make her cry, did you?" Ines, who was sitting next to the campfire, raised her eyes slightly and looked at W who was walking back, and asked with a suspicious look in her eyes.

As for why she asked this, it was of course because both W's current expression and her shadow told Ines that her comrade was in a very happy mood.

"Although I really want to do this, it's a pity." W, who sat down next to the campfire, showed a regretful expression and said "depressed."

"..."

Hearing this, Ines glanced at W lightly and said nothing more. If she didn't know W too well, and if she hadn't observed her shadow in advance, she would believe... No wonder!

If Ines believed W's lies so easily, then she wouldn't be Ines.

"Did you find anything?"

Hearing this, Hedley, who was sitting next to her, also spoke at this moment, and he looked at W curiously.

"I did find some interesting things, but... I still need to confirm it~" After hearing what Hedley said, W did not answer directly, but chose to keep it a secret.

Although W had only had a short-distance contact with Griseo just now. But... just this short time, coupled with the sudden change of the little loli, she had many guesses.

You know, she may not be so sure about other things, but with the smile that Griseo gave her before, she can almost be 100% sure that it was "her" smile.

And at that time, W was very keen to notice the change in the temperament of the little loli. Just this point can almost rule out the fact that the child simply imitated this.

In this case, there is only one possibility left...

However, all of this is just W's analysis and guess through this contact, and it still needs further confirmation.

However, you have to know that what W doesn't lack the most right now is time. It's not easy to find such an interesting thing, so she will definitely not let it go so easily.

"As long as you are happy, it's fine as long as you don't overdo it." Seeing W like this, Hedley knew he couldn't ask any more questions. So he just shook his head helplessly, and then reminded him again.

Chapter 75: Sarkaz Girl

It didn't take long for the members of Reunion to prepare and gather everything they needed. Then, they started the migration.

The migration location this time was quite far away, and it would take several days to travel. Staying too close to the previous location would make them easy to find. To avoid this trouble, Talulah and the others chose a relatively distant location as their new base.

After the team started to move, Gray summoned all of her friends and dispersed them in various directions to protect the safety of the migration team.

Of course, not all of them; the little loli still left with her own knight.

After all, with such thick snow on the ground, Gray might sink into it, so it was more convenient to let the knight hold her... and she could also bring her own friends with her.

Griseo did not forget the agreement with Yelena. Even though she was held by her own knight, she followed Lois and the other snow monsters very obediently and did not run around.

...

However, coincidentally, Griseo was not too far away from the mercenary group during the team's march.

This led to the little loli always feeling that there were eyes staring at her, and every time she turned around, she would meet W's annoying expression and eyes...

However, Griseo could not do anything about W, and to prevent herself from looking at her and getting affected by her demeanor, the little loli finally nestled in the knight's arms, closed her big violet eyes, and avoided looking at anyone.

——————————————————

During the migration, no matter how anxious or rushed they were, they still had to stop to eat and rest. At night, they would temporarily set up camp.

After all, the Ursus Snowfield at night is very dangerous, not to mention that everyone is human... There are even many infected people whose physical conditions are much worse than ordinary people.

After night fell——

"Ah~"

Sitting by the campfire, Griseo squinted her beautiful big eyes with mist and yawned again.

This was the nth time she had yawned, and now she was drowsy.

Even now, the little loli was so sleepy that she ignored all the glances and whispers around her.

You know, the temporary camp was different; everyone's tents were very close, and the campfires were almost gathered in one place. In this case, many people peeked at Griseo from time to time.

But in this case, the drowsy little loli was not affected at all.

Today, too many things had happened, and Griseo had also expended some energy. After all this, she became sleepy much earlier than usual.

As for why the little girl didn't go to bed even though she was sleepy, the reason was very simple—that is, she hadn't had dinner yet and was a little hungry.

"If you're very sleepy, you can go to bed first. I'll bring dinner to the tent later..." Alyona whispered into Griseo's ear, seeing her sleepy.

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, the dazed Griseo was stunned at first, then gently shook her head after waking up a little.

"Too much trouble, let's wait a while..."

After saying this, the little girl rubbed Alyona's shoulder with sleepy eyes and then leaned on it.

"..."

Looking at the little cutie on her shoulder, Alyona's light green eyes flashed a trace of helplessness. Realizing that Griseo wasn't affected by others tonight because she was very sleepy, she said nothing.

Otherwise, if she was affected, not only Alyona, but also Talulah and the others would have stuffed the little girl back into the tent. How could they let her sit in a place with so many people...

Just then, people started moving around the campfire not far away, making everyone look over subconsciously. Even the sleepy and confused Griseo looked up and took a look.

What caught her eye was a Sarkaz wearing heavy protective gear. However, the little girl, whose head was a bit unclear at the moment, did not think much about it and quickly retracted her gaze.

"……꒪-꒪)!"

However, just when Griseo had withdrawn her gaze and was about to continue dozing off, she suddenly became alert and opened her beautiful eyes wide, dispelling her sleepiness.

The reason was simple—she realized who she had just seen...

It's Miss Sarkaz!

Before transmigration, Griseo hadn't used the initial splash art for too long, and she was so dazed just now that she didn't react immediately when she saw the heavy protective gear.

To be honest, this was the first time the little girl saw the person she had been thinking about all day. However, there was no other way. After all, Griseo couldn't actively look for her in the mercenary group, and Mudrock wasn't like W...

"Hmm? Is it a bit cold?"

Seeing Griseo suddenly wake up, Alyona asked with a puzzled expression.

"I'm not cold... I just suddenly thought of something and woke up," Griseo's eyes flickered when she heard her friend's question, and then she answered softly.

Hearing this, Alyona nodded gently, then patted the stone under her and said: "It's good that you're not cold. If you are cold, you can sit over here. I'm closer to the fire."

"Yeah."

"But now that Griseo is awake, don't you need to go back to the tent?" Then Alyona spoke again as if she remembered something.

"It doesn't matter... Alyona is here."

What Griseo feared most was facing the crowd alone, which really made her uncomfortable. But with Alyona by her side, it wouldn't be a big problem. After all, the little girl could just dive into the little ursus' arms and feel safe.

You know, Griseo still liked the refreshing light green color of Alyona.

"..."

Hearing this, Alyona smiled, and then after hesitating for a moment, she reached out and gently touched Griseo's little head.

"Hmm..."

Feeling the touch on her head, Griseo squinted her big eyes gently, and the hair on her head swayed with her good mood at the moment.

However, there was one thing that confused the little girl quite a bit—she had no idea how to approach the Sarkaz girl...
