Transforming into Kanna on Terra

"Tsk, there were actually quite a few options, but why did you all have to pick the worst one?"

Seeing the group charging at her with fierce expressions, she spread her hands in resignation.

Dealing with these ordinary Originium slug patients, whose physical condition was average and who hadn't even developed Originium Arts, Kanna didn't even need to use her skills. Relying solely on her terrifying physique and elusive speed, she easily knocked them all to the ground.

"Nice moves. Want to learn assassination from me?" A strange and alluring woman was leaning by the doorway, looking bored.

First, thank the great Chen Yueyu for the reward.

Section 51, Chapter 47: The Wolf Hunter Hunts, the Young Dragon Follows

Kanna looked up. The first thing that would draw one's attention was the woman's chest.

She glanced down at the two characters on her chest and felt that this person must be her destined enemy.

Although she didn't know what this little cub was thinking, she could clearly sense that the cub's first impression of her wasn't good, so she decisively gave up on recruiting her.

"S.W.E.E.P. Administrator, Ascalon. Subsequent support will arrive in five minutes..." Ascalon finished speaking and turned to leave.

When Kanna walked to the doorway and looked out, the other party was long gone.

"Strange busty woman, Ascalon... Oh! I remember, the head of SWEEP. Like Logos, she's quite high-and-mighty." Kanna patted her dragon horns, recalling her memories of Ascalon.

Before long, a squad of Operators rushed towards Kanna's location. Seeing that Kanna was unharmed, they all breathed a sigh of relief. They then looked inside and discovered several people lying scattered on the ground.

"Are these all of them? Could any of the people who left have slipped through?" Although they trusted Kanna's strength, they were still worried if Kanna might have missed someone.

"Don't worry! I observed for quite a while and only made a move after catching all the slugs."

Sensing the Operators' lack of trust, Kanna quickly patted her chest and guaranteed that she hadn't missed a single bad person.

After they tied up the unconscious people and took them away, Kanna didn't go back to report the mission. It wouldn't make a difference whether she reported now or later. What if she went back and was assigned a new mission? She was just a cub and didn't want to start working overtime so early.

Even if Kal'tsit asked, she could say that she was worried about some of the people she let go earlier and secretly observed them for a while. As for why she ended up observing in the cafeteria or other places...

Well, isn't it normal for a child to not know the way?

As Kanna wandered around, she noticed a strange gray shadow following behind a few Lupo individuals. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was Red.

Speaking of which, although she and Red were neighbors, they had only met once before.

At that time, she could easily sense Red's presence, but now, if she didn't deliberately search, she might overlook her.

It seemed she had improved quite a bit during this time.

Kanna only knew that Red was very interested in Lupo tails, but she had never personally witnessed her "hunt." Driven by curiosity, she quietly followed.

After walking for a while, a Lupo girl separated from the others. She was walking towards the lounge area with a smile, completely unaware that a "wolf hunter" was lurking behind her.

Suddenly, she stopped and looked at the dessert shop next to her, a conflicted expression on her face, as if considering whether to go in and try a dessert.

Just then, she suddenly felt a chill... Then, her tail was grabbed, and the person actually started pulling her tail without her permission.

She let out a "Yelp!" and looked behind her with a flushed face, only to see a little girl.

This made her relax considerably. Although being tugged by the tail felt unpleasant, seeing a little girl was far better than turning around to see a greasy old man.

Seeing the girl turn around, Red pulled down her hood, preparing to flee the scene of the crime.

However, when she turned, she found a little dragon girl grinning and blocking her path.

"Whoa! What are you doing?"

Kanna hadn't expected the scene to be so intense. Was this something a cub like her should be seeing?

"Red, hunt, tail, reward, pets!"

Finding her escape route blocked, Red had no choice but to stop.

At this moment, the Lupo girl looked at Red doubtfully before a look of realization dawned on her face.

"You're that legendary person who stalks around Rhodes Island like a ghost, tugging at Lupo tails! I've heard from my seniors that Lupo must avoid walking alone on the ship, as they might be followed by a mysterious person and punished with tail-tugging... I didn't expect the mysterious person to be such a cute little girl! But touching someone without their permission is not good behavior!"

Kanna glanced over. The girl also had a Rhodes Island Operator insignia on her, but she was a trainee.

"Sorry, big sister. I apologize on her behalf. How about I treat you to some dessert?"

Kanna pulled the girl and Red towards the dessert shop. The reason? Naturally, she wasn't allowed to enter alone... But now that there were two of them, it wouldn't count as being alone.

"Huh...?" The Lupo girl was pulled inside, completely bewildered.

Upon entering, Kanna saw a waiter approaching and said generously, "Every single dessert, one of each. Send the bill to Kal'tsit!"

"Uh... we won't be able to finish all of this, will we?" the Lupo girl asked with a hint of doubt.

"Hm? Don't be shy. Order whatever you want to eat yourself. Kal'tsit is paying anyway." Kanna tilted her head, confused. What did she mean by "we"? She was just ordering for herself. After all, even with desserts, people have different preferences, and she wouldn't do something so presumptuous when meeting someone for the first time.

"???" The Lupo girl was completely taken aback. With one of each item, the three of them would probably stuff themselves to death in this dessert shop... And the bill would be sent to Doctor Kal'tsit... Oh my god, as a mere intern, she wouldn't dare let the head of Rhodes Island's medical department pay for her.

"Red?"

"Sweets, their strong smell makes it hard to hide!" Red seemed hesitant after sniffing the air in the shop.

"Hey, since we're here, why not eat something? You know, sweets are food that can make people happy."

"Red doesn't need it. Hunting and having my tail petted makes me happy." Mentioning her tail, Red's tail wagged with excitement.

"Then try it, just one bite?"

Thinking about handing the bill to Kal'tsit, she knew Kal'tsit wouldn't necessarily accept it if it were just her. But Red was Kal'tsit's "beloved dog," so with her there, Kanna's plan to get freebies could succeed. Thus, she kept coaxing Red.

Realizing she couldn't escape, Red obediently sat down and opened her mouth to accept Kanna's feeding.

The Lupo girl initially found the scene in front of her very happy, but gradually, the scene started to feel a little off...

Mainly, after eating a few pieces, Red declared she was full. Then, one dessert after another disappeared into the mouth of the child named Kanna.

According to her calculations, conservatively, the amount of sweets Kanna ate would take her a week to eat if she were to have three meals a day.

She had initially thought about paying the bill, but at the current prices, she probably couldn't afford it even if she sold herself to the dessert shop.

Forget it! Selling herself on one hand and facing the bill from her superior on the other, both outcomes were bad endings. The girl shrugged it off and slumped onto the sofa – giving up.

Section 52 Chapter 48: Standing High Allows One to See Far

Under the Lupo girl's vacant expression, Kanna ate all the delivered sweets without changing her expression. She even politely thanked the waitress, and then the few of them walked out the door.

"Red, I need to train, hunt."

After walking out the door, Red, uncharacteristically, said goodbye to Kanna.

"Mhm! See you next time!" Kanna, satisfied with her meal, waved goodbye to Red. Then, while the Lupo girl was still in a daze, she slipped away.

Wandering to the upper district, Kanna had originally planned to visit the greenhouse for a bit and take a nap. However, she bumped into Scout on the way.

He was leading Long Scorpion towards the outer area, and Kanna immediately called out to him.

"Hi! Uncle Scout, where are you going to play! Take me with you!"

Even though she knew he was heading to the watchtower for a shift change, Kanna deliberately asked.

Seeing Kanna's restless demeanor, Scout pointed towards the main gate. "Want to go out and play? You can, but you have to promise me a few things!"

"Okay, okay! Name your price!" Kanna's eyes lit up as soon as she heard she could go out.

"First, you must not leave the watchtower and must not leave my sight without permission. Second, if you get tired of playing and want to leave, you must return indoors under supervision and cannot linger outside. Third, you have to promise to follow orders."

After understanding her better, Scout knew that it was better to guide her than to restrict her. After all, with Kanna's strength, slipping out would be easy. The main gate wouldn't stop her, but she had never used such a method, which showed she was quite rule-abiding.

That's why he agreed when he saw Kanna wanted to go out and play.

"Okay!" She had intended to go to the top to see the scenery. Due to various issues on previous occasions, she hadn't had her fill.

After the last incident, apart from testing moves with a group of people outside, she hadn't had a chance to go to the upper watchtower. This time, Scout was taking her up, and she decided to behave and not cause any trouble.

After all, a child's occasional harmless prank could amuse adults, but constant mischief was annoying.

Following Scout obediently, they successfully handed over their shift with the operators on duty at the watchtower.

The person Kanna replaced was startled, as the title "Rhodes Island's Hungry Dragon" had already spread far and wide among the operators.

However, seeing that Scout brought her up, they relaxed. After all, if something were to happen, the higher-ups would take responsibility. If the captain brought her, the blame wouldn't fall on them, the lower-ranking soldiers.

Kanna sat at the top, looking at the surrounding scenery, and couldn't help but sigh. This kind of boundless view of vast wastelands and the beasts surviving on them was something she had only seen on television before. This was her first time observing it so closely with her own eyes.

"Want to play a game?" Scout handed Kanna a bottle of juice and sat down beside her.

"Wow! You're not taking your job seriously and playing games? I'm going to tell Kal'tsit."

"...You little brat, believe it or not, if you dare to report me, I'll go tell Outcast about the bad things you've been doing lately. Kal'tsit will only criticize me a couple of times, but you'll get spanked by Outcast."

He didn't expect this little imp to be so ungrateful. He came to find something fun for her to do so she wouldn't be too bored, and she threatened to report him.

"Hmph! Adults who only tattle!" Kanna took the juice and gulped it down. Seeing that the juice tasted good, she decided to overlook the adult's mistake and forgive Scout, not because she was afraid of Outcast.

"What game is it!"

After they tacitly resolved their bickering, Kanna looked at Scout. He wasn't holding anything, so she wondered how they would play.

"Heh heh! As snipers, our eyes are our strongest asset. The game is to find a nearby landmark, describe its general appearance and approximate location, and then the other person finds it. We have ten minutes, and whoever finds the landmark the other person described first wins."

After Scout finished explaining, Kanna couldn't help but smile. Her eyesight was extremely far-reaching; she could clearly see an anthill several kilometers away. Scout wanted to compete with her in eyesight; winning would be too easy.

"Okay, for the first round, I'll take the left, you take the right."

With that, Kanna got up from the ground and stood on her tiptoes, looking outside. Soon, she spotted two Originium slugs fighting on a small hill about three to four kilometers away from the landship. Although there were no obstructions, the slugs were only about the size of a normal person's head. Even with equipment, it would be difficult to find these two fighting slugs within such a large area. Moreover, the surrounding environment had strong landmarks, so she wasn't afraid of Scout cheating and giving a random location.

Soon, they exchanged positions and information. Scout's information for Kanna was a crooked tree with a red cloth hanging from it.

Initially, Kanna fell into her usual habit, thinking Scout would choose something very far away. She looked up for a long time but couldn't find it. As time was running out, she withdrew her gaze, ready to concede, when she suddenly realized the crooked tree was less than a hundred meters below the landship.

This infuriated her. Scout, that scoundrel, had tricked her, a child! He was practically inhuman, a demon.

No, Scout was Sarkaz, so he was a demon. That made sense.

On the other side, Scout was sweating profusely. The information the kid gave him was two Originium slugs fighting on a small hill. He searched a three-kilometer radius around the landship but couldn't find any trace of Originium slugs.

Could the kid be lying to him? Perhaps they were further away?

With this doubt, Scout looked further into the distance and finally spotted the two dueling Originium slugs before time ran out.

"Holy crap, is this a 'duel'?" Kanna didn't understand the Originium slugs' actions, only seeing two of them constantly colliding, which she instinctively thought was a duel. In reality, it was the sight of two Originium slugs mating.

He glanced at Kanna and decided not to tell her about it.

However, he was also quite shocked. From his perception, the distance was already about four kilometers. Kanna could clearly see the actions of the two Originium slugs from such a distance. It could be said that she was born to be a sniper.

After all, a sniper could train their technique and skills, but eyesight was fixed by physique. Those who could see farther and clearer without mechanical assistance were more suited to be snipers than those who couldn't.

Thinking about the rumors that many elite Operators had considered taking Kanna as an apprentice, he felt a little tempted himself.

Chapter 53 Chapter 49 A Divorced Mother Comes to Seek Refuge with Her Daughter and Subordinates

"Ahem, I say, Kanna..." scout cautiously crouched down, a fawning smile on his face.

"Not doing it!"

"I haven't said anything yet..."

"Looking at you, it's definitely not something good. Since it's not something good, I won't do anything," Kanna said after disdainfully sizing up scout.

scout immediately got anxious. "What do you mean it's not something good? I see you have talent and want to teach you to become a sniper. I'm not bragging, but if I put it out there that I'm looking for an apprentice, the people who sign up could form a line from Kazdel all the way to Remupton."

"There's a beautiful big-breasted sister below who wants to teach me assassination, and I didn't even agree to that. How about you two fight? Whoever wins, I'll go with them? But I think your chances of winning aren't high..."

scout slapped the roof so hard it rang upon hearing this. "Impossible. There are very few people on Rhodes Island who dare to say they are better than me in assassination and sniping. Give me her name, and I'll personally go spar with her."

"Really?"

"You bet it's real!"

"Hmm~ Let me think, that sister's name is Ascalon. She looks a bit fierce... Can you really beat her?"

"Isn't it just A? A what was it? Ascalon... Cough, cough, cough... Kanna-chan, the sun outside is a bit harsh. I'll go get some juice, do you want some?"
