Bianca: Mobius, Why Haven't You Left Yet? / Bianca's Irritation

This feeling was something even her admired sister, Margaret Nearl, couldn't give her...

Seeing Maria Nearl's somewhat dejected expression, Bianca blinked gently and comforted her in a softer tone:

"Don't be impatient. One day you will find what you are good at, and at that time, you will have your own path and goals."

Bianca paused slightly, then gently patted Maria Nearl's shoulder before continuing, "Trust your heart; it will tell you the answer."

"Besides, Maria Nearl, don't you really enjoy going to the workshop? If you're interested in this kind of thing, you could give it a serious try."

"Maybe I'll have a master craftsman friend someday."

As she finished speaking, Bianca gave Maria Nearl a gentle and encouraging smile.

"Ah... I'm just a little interested in that area, it's nothing like the exaggerated things you're making it out to be Bianca!"

After hearing Bianca's words of comfort, Maria Nearl's mind went blank for a moment, and then all her chaotic thoughts and emotions vanished.

All that's left is the embarrassment of being praised by friends...

"Believe in yourself, Maria Nearl, and don't let external factors affect your confidence."

Noticing that Maria Nearl's bad mood had vanished, a quick smile flashed in Bianca's eyes before she continued:

"And I'm not afraid to tell you this, but actually, besides fighting, I'm really bad at many things, including life in general."

"Huh?"

After hearing Bianca's words, Maria Nearl was slightly taken aback and let out a soft gasp of surprise.

"So, there's no need to be so anxious. Just go with the flow and happily explore according to your heart."

"Um... thank you, Bianca."

As the two girls were talking to each other in the living room, a pair of eyes filled with both relief and helplessness were silently watching them.

The owner of those eyes was Zofia, the owner of the mansion, who had just gone to the dining room to prepare fruit.

After spending the last few days with Bianca, she found her increasingly pleasing and satisfactory friend. She was also happy that her child had such an excellent and positive friend.

However, Zofia also saw a downside to this situation: she noticed that once her child made some reliable friends of the same age, they stopped playing or confiding in her as much as she did as their aunt.

It gave her the feeling that her child had grown up and no longer needed her.

This has led to a slight sense of confusion for Zofia recently, even as she is happy for Maria Nearl.

"..."

After finishing her conversation with Maria Nearl, Bianca discreetly glanced in the direction where Zofia was hiding before quickly looking away.

Bianca had noticed Zofia's secret observation from the very beginning, but she didn't care and had no intention of exposing it.

Because she roughly knew what her young aunt was worried about, she could completely understand.

"What are your plans for the upcoming matches, Bianca?"

Zofia, who had finally cut up the fruit and brought it to the table, hesitated for a moment before asking the question that had been piquing her curiosity.

"Hmm... there's no particular plan, or rather, the plan is very simple. We'll leave the qualifying rounds as they are for now, and participate in more if we need more. As for the knockout rounds and the tournament, we'll just keep going."

When Zofia asked her, Bianca told her everything without hiding anything.

After all, thanks to Maria Nearl's influence, her relationship with Zofia has become much closer, and they've even changed how they address each other.

"You're really... honest."

Zofia, momentarily speechless at Bianca's answer, twitched at the corner of her mouth and then said helplessly.

"Bianca, your plan is really that simple?" Maria Nearl was eating fruit nearby, was slightly taken aback after hearing her friend's words.

"Honesty is a great virtue of a knight. Besides, I have enough confidence in my abilities."

P. S.: We had guests over today, so it's late. Only one update today, sigh.

Chapter 24 Bianca: Mobius, why haven't you left yet?

"Honesty is a great virtue of a knight. Besides, I have enough confidence in my abilities." In response to her "sister's" reaction, Bianca gave a gentle and confident smile.

However, she quickly seemed to remember something, her smile faded, and she touched her nose, saying:

"However, although I make it sound easy, things will definitely get more troublesome. After all, I have no intention of colluding with those capitalists who I find laughable."

The competition process that Bianca described earlier was a very simplified version. In fact, she was very aware that by refusing to be courted or sponsored, she would definitely face various forms of targeting.

Although these attacks wouldn't have much impact on her, just thinking about them was annoying. It felt like being stalked by flies in the dark; you could swat them away immediately, but it still felt disgusting.

"...?"

After hearing Bianca's words, Maria Nearl, who already knew the answer, didn't react much, but Zofia's head slowly showed a question mark, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Although their relationship had grown much closer during this time, she hadn't asked Bianca about many things, including her reasons for participating in the competition...

"Surprised?"

After noticing Zofia's gaze, Bianca said with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

"Hmm... it is quite unexpected. I think you should know what you'll face after making this choice, so can you tell me why?" Upon hearing this, Zofia was silent for a moment before nodding gently and looking at Bianca with a serious gaze.

Zofia was all too familiar with Bianca's choice, because she had made the same decision years ago, but her own ultimate fate was...

However, she also knew that Bianca was different from her and much stronger, which was why she was curious at this moment.

Seeing Zofia's seriousness, Bianca also became serious, her azure eyes filled with solemnity and a smile as she said:

"Of course I know the difference between having capital support and not having it, and I know the potential benefits involved. But there are always things that make people disregard gains and losses and strive to accomplish them."

At this point, Bianca paused slightly, a glint in her eyes, as other emotions quietly faded away, replaced by only determination and confidence.

"Moreover, in my eyes, the gap that capital can create with money is not a gap at all; with my strength, I can close it off."

To others, Bianca's words sounded somewhat arrogant.

But in fact, she was just telling the truth... With the equipment that Kazimierz currently has that can be bought with money, she could easily take them down with a single punch.

There is absolutely no difference in equipment... If you have to say something, it's that her Godslayer Armor has been downgraded to a defensive weapon.

As for the forces currently in Kazimierz, none of them can harm the Goose.

To put it bluntly, even if all the monsters and demons in Kazimierz were mixed together, they probably wouldn't be enough for her to use as a punching bag...

"..."

After hearing Bianca's words, who exuded confidence and radiance, Zofia fell into a deep silence.

How should I put it?

Zofia's current state is somewhat similar to Maria Nearl's back then; simply put, she's been dazzled by little Bianca...

Honestly, if anyone else had made such outrageous remarks in front of Zofia, she probably would have already snapped back.

However, she is now facing Bianca, who has already demonstrated formidable strength before her...

Even Zofia herself had to admit that the seemingly young child in front of her was very strong, even stronger than her own child, Margaret Nearl Nearl.

After all, even Margaret Nearl back then couldn't shatter a knight's armor with a single punch, send him flying, and then chase a group of knights around the arena... and knock them all down.

If Margaret Nearl had possessed that kind of strength back then, she probably wouldn't have been expelled later...

Thinking of this, a complex emotion flashed in Zofia's eyes, and she sighed with emotion.

"..."

Maria Nearl, who was sitting to the side, secretly glanced at her "dull" aunt before looking away, putting aside her worries, and continued eating fruit, while also slipping one to Bianca.

As for why he wasn't worried anymore, it was because the little pony realized that his aunt's condition was exactly the same as his own before, so what was there to worry about?

It was just a minor shock to Bianca.

"..."

Seeing Zofia deep in thought, Bianca wisely refrained from disturbing her and quietly joined Maria Nearl in eating fruit.

However, after this incident, Silly Goose started to ponder. She wondered if demonstrating more of her abilities would reduce the number of annoying flies.

The silly goose is distressed. jpg

Finally, after chatting with the two of them for a while longer, Bianca politely declined Zofia's invitation to dinner and returned to her hotel.

It wasn't that Dumb Goose didn't want to eat with Zofia and the others, but rather that Mobius was secretly urging her to go back.

To be honest, Bianca didn't want to go back at all, especially not to see that annoying, sharp-tongued guy, even if that guy was herself.

However, having already figured out what was going on through their telepathic connection, the silly goose decided to go back for Sakura's sake.

"I'm back."

Back at the hotel, Bianca nodded to Sakura, who was sitting on the sofa.

"Welcome back, Bianca. You had a tough match today." Hearing this, Sakura nodded gently and then smiled sweetly.

"This kind of competition isn't strenuous at all. In fact, Sakura, you can completely stop and rest now. Take a stroll around the city and see for yourself; even the daytime here is nice."

After hearing Sakura's words, Bianca's eyes revealed a hint of helplessness.

"Yes, I will."

Sakura didn't object to Bianca's suggestion.

Ultimately, who enjoys going out at night with a knife to earn some "extra money"? Besides, after today's competition... they're not short of money at all now.

Upon hearing this, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Bianca's azure eyes. She then looked at the person who had remained silent and said:

"So... Mobius, when are you leaving?"

P. S.: I have to go back to school tomorrow morning, so this is only one update today. I will resume regular updates starting from the first of next month.

Honestly, I don't understand. There's not much to do. Why do we have to go to school for several days in a row? It's so annoying. We have graduation photos to take tomorrow, and I can already imagine standing under the sun for an hour... I need to urge them to hurry up.

Chapter 25 Bianca's Irritability

"So... Mobius, when are you leaving?"

"Oh dear~ how heartbreaking, Bianca, you just got back and you're already in such a hurry to send me away." After hearing Bianca's words, Mobius put down the documents in his hand, covered his face, and "sadly" cried.

"... Stop pretending, I'll give you plenty of funds. Leave the Great Knight's Territory immediately." Seeing Mobius's expression, Bianca's lips twitched involuntarily, and she said irritably.

Others might be swayed by Mobius's appearance, but Silly Goose would never be. She knows perfectly well how much malice someone might have in their heart.

"Hey, after Bianca found a new love interest after being away for a few days, she's already so indifferent to us?"

When faced with Bianca's irritable attitude, Mobius's expression remained unchanged; he still covered his face and complained in that pitiful manner.

"?"

Upon hearing these words from the unrepentant Mobius, Bianca felt her vision go black.

"Okay, Bianca, calm down."

Upon noticing Bianca's state, Sakura, who was sitting nearby, immediately reached out and took her arm to prevent her from hitting herself.

The fact that they're fighting each other is a minor issue; the real problem is that, given their combined strength, even if they were to control their power and actually fight, this building would be destroyed...

"Sakura, you're taking sides..."

Bianca, who had been pulled back, turned her head to look at Sakura beside her and began to complain.

Although Dai'e knows Sakura's reasons for taking sides, and can roughly understand them, that doesn't mean she won't complain or "accuse" her.

"Bianca, you know Dr. Mobius's personality. There's no need to argue with her. She's just stubborn." Faced with Bianca's control, Sakura awkwardly looked away and explained softly.

Honestly, if she could, Sakura wouldn't want to take sides, and she wouldn't even want to be caught in the middle between the two...

But there was nothing she could do; the two were simply incompatible, and in order to somewhat reconcile their differences, she could only helplessly find herself caught in the middle.

However, this situation won't last much longer. After all, one of them is already leaving...

"All right..."

After hearing Sakura's words, Bianca's azure eyes still showed a hint of displeasure, but she ultimately said nothing more.
