Chapter 330: An Unexpected Harvest
If Heidegger knew what his daughter was thinking, he would surely correct her with a sigh.
"No, Isabella, this has nothing to do with being a knight."
But sadly, Duke Heidegger was too busy lamenting how much his daughter had changed and pretending to be polite with Froer, not realizing what Isabella was actually doing.
Tina heard everything that Isabella said, and she was stunned.
After a long silence in the stands, the Elf Princess began to laugh.
This smile was even brighter and more radiant than when she was on the stage.
"What… Isabella…"
The Moon Elf said this and gently shook her head.
"What you said sounds like you’re afraid of losing to me and are making excuses already…"
As she said this, the Moon Elf stood up, seeming to be fully energized.
"I have never said that I would give up on Master Lolth! I will become the one who stands by Master Lolth the longest and closest!"
Amid the loud voices around them, Tina looked into Isabella’s eyes and said seriously and firmly.
"Then I will wait and see!"
Isabella also began to laugh.
In that moment when the two girls reached an understanding, a small stir arose on the stage.
A white, graceful figure, the second-to-last contestant in the beauty pageant, hurriedly rushed onto the stage before Maider could call her name and while the crowd was still unsettled!
Even though most of the attention was not on the stage at this moment, the lack of a name was very unfavorable for voting.
But it seemed like the other party wanted this effect, afraid that others would notice her.
The pinkish-white figure wore a light, extremely fancy, fluffy bubble skirt, and on her dark hair there was a cute, sheer headpiece, with beautiful straps on her wrists and ankles, and around her neck hung a kind necklace.
She even had a beautiful blush on her cheeks, like a shy girl, with red lips, white teeth, and star-like sparkling sequins under her eyes.
Anyone who looked at her would exclaim, "So cute!" as she stood on stage, gripping the edge of her skirt tightly, her fair skin showing a red hue from her quickening blood circulation.
"Hello everyone—"
Some clear voices were slightly shaky at that moment, not just because of nervousness or shyness.
And as many people turned their gazes towards her, she seemed even more uneasy.
"Goodbye everyone!"
Bowing quickly to everyone, the girl rushed off the stage from the other side.
From behind the stage, Maider’s voice was amplified through the speaker.
"Alright, dear audience, the contestant who just hurried on stage is… Oh no!"
A sudden cry of pain interrupted Maider’s introduction.
It also made the girl’s identity more mysterious.
Everything happened in just a few seconds, but it made everyone, who was originally focused on the competition between Tina and Isabella, feel a bit calmer.
Even Isabella and Tina looked curiously at the empty stage again.
"Who is that…?"
"They look so familiar, but I can’t remember!"
The two looked at each other, both showing puzzled expressions.
Like the other townspeople, they did not realize that the girl just now was the usually down-and-out boy swordsman "An"!
After all, An usually kept to herself, and most people really don’t have a clear impression of her appearance.
Now that he appeared in such a surprising outfit, it’s normal not to recognize him right away!
And not just the residents of Hillenbrand Town, but also the important figures standing on the edge were equally confused.
The Demon King and Doyle did not pay much attention to this small incident since most of the people in the main plane were strangers to them.
They wondered if this "mysterious girl," being pretty and cute, was yet another one of Lolth’s charming secrets.
Heidegger and Froer, however, were lost in thought.
Even though they were not residents of Hillenbrand Town, these two felt they had seen that fleeting girl before.
They did not stay puzzled for long and quickly realized why she seemed familiar.
"Duke Heidegger… don’t you think this person looks a lot like someone…?"
Froer spoke softly.
Duke Heidegger nodded.
"Her eyebrows, facial features, everything looks like it was carved from the same mold, and her hair color is pretty similar… it’s just…"
"The height has grown quite a lot, and the aura is not as ‘terrifying’ and ‘fierce’ as before."
Froer added.
At this point, Heidegger frowned.
"But that shouldn’t be, that guy’s entire family and legacy should have been wiped out five years ago… This is very recent; I cannot be mistaken… She herself said she is all alone."
"It could just be a coincidence; people from the Eastern Seven Kingdoms generally look alike, Duke Heidegger."
Froer looked at the other person and said softly.
Heidegger also glanced at Froer, putting away his previous forced smile and replacing it with a serious expression.
"Do you really believe in the idea of ‘coincidence,’ Ms. Froer?"
"I was just saying it casually…"
Froer said this and felt a little sentimental.
"I never expected that a visit to ‘see family’ would bring unexpected surprises; this is truly delightful!"
"Let’s pretend we don’t know about this matter; I really don’t want to bring trouble upon myself… ‘Yi’ will someday become someone at our level, and her way of doing things is like that… I don’t want to be involved with her at all."
"Right now, I just want to enjoy being a wealthy gentleman and watch my daughter find a good husband."
Heidegger, the Duke of North Land and a nightmare for countless people on the continent, actually showed a slightly troubled expression, as if he were wary of something.
Froer sighed deeply.
"Indeed… anyone who uses a ‘sword,’ whether it’s a western sword or an eastern sword, seems to have some kind of personality flaw… So you are right; let’s keep what we saw about this little girl today a secret."
It seemed that a certain understanding and agreement had been reached between the two strong individuals.
Next, it was time for the last contestant of the beauty contest to make her appearance.
Maider, who climbed up from the back, had a big swollen cheek on his left side, but it didn’t affect his enthusiasm.
Just before he announced it, the sky over Hillenbrand Town suddenly darkened.
It was as if it suddenly became a cloudy day.
The bright, sunny morning with clear autumn air seemed to turn into evening in an instant!
