I'm on the Ark, and I start out as Gretchen.

Bianca, who was suddenly dazzled by the radiant smile, also gently curled the corners of her lips and returned a tender smile.

……

Finally, after applying medicine to the two infected children, sending them home and leaving them some money, Bianca left.

Of course, before leaving completely, she did warn the group of children she had scared away earlier. After all, if she didn't do that... there would definitely be a next time.

"..."

Bianca's feelings were quite complicated as she walked back.

However, before she could dwell on her thoughts for long, a message from Sakura suddenly disrupted all her ideas, causing her to pause in her tracks.

After realizing what had happened, Dai'e quickened her pace and headed towards the hotel.

————————————————————

Hotel Room——

"Oh dear~ Our knight lady is back. How is she? Just as we expected~"

Mebius, who had been studying in his room, started teasing Bianca when he saw her rushing back.

In fact, long before Bianca was summoned, she and Sakura had predicted the trajectory and decisions of the goose after its appearance.

In the end, both Snake and Sakura believed that Bianca would take some action, or even stay here to interfere long-term.

However, the silly goose, who had only been summoned not long before, did not believe the two people's predictions. She firmly believed that she was a "rational" transmigrator.

But in the end...

"Yes, I've decided to stay."

Bianca glanced helplessly at the sarcastic Mebius, then nodded honestly and replied.

After all, there's no point in denying it. We're all one person, and our hearts are connected... A little probing will reveal what the other person is thinking. Hiding it is pointless, so it's better to just answer honestly.

"Ugh, this is so boring~"

Seeing Bianca admit it so quickly, Mebius helplessly shrugged, his interest instantly waning.

"so……"

Bianca's gaze did not linger on Mebius, but instead shifted to Sakura sitting to the side.

"The information is absolutely true; the Blood Knight was indeed injured for unknown reasons. As for the reason, I haven't investigated it further for now."

Noticing Bianca's gaze, Sakura nodded slightly and then answered seriously.

"..."

After receiving a clear answer from Sakura, Bianca reached out and rubbed her temples, which suddenly felt a phantom ache.

For a moment, a sense of guilt and unease arose in Silly Goose's heart. She had just made a solemn promise to those two children, but who knew that the Blood Knight would run into trouble so soon afterward.

"Hehe~ Looks like two kids' wishes are going to be disappointed~" Mebius said with a smug look on Bianca's face, who was clearly in a daze.

"Alright, stop provoking me. I know what you're thinking." Bianca lowered her hand, composed herself, and looked at Mebius with a serious expression, saying:

"Prepare my armor and weapons, and I'll be going to fight in this match."

In fact, Bianca always knew that winning this Cavaliers' championship was the optimal solution for her, as it would bring her significant benefits.

Significant benefits and advantages.

She could even use this influence to intervene in or protect those in need. From that position, Dai'e didn't think she would do worse than the Blood Knight in the story; she would only do better.

However, unlike her other identities, Bianca wasn't indifferent; there were certain hurdles... she couldn't get over. She really didn't want to stand on that farcical stage, like a plaything for others to watch.

That's why she subconsciously avoided and ignored the idea of ​​directly participating in the knightly competition.

Others think differently from Bianca and don't care about matters concerning the knights, so... naturally they have different plans and actions.

This is a direct criticism of Snake...

“Equipment…that’s right, your armor doesn’t seem to be usable directly in the match. But such a short time is really frustrating~” Hearing Bianca’s words, Mebius wasn’t surprised at all, but just pretended to be troubled.

I won't go to her.

Bianca, who once again knew through telepathy that Mebius had wicked intentions, immediately flew into a rage and said in a resolute tone.

After saying that, he didn't intend to stay there any longer and turned to leave.

"I'll leave the equipment issue to you guys to figure out."

"..."

Hearing this, Möbius wasn't annoyed. He simply smiled and watched Bianca disappear from his sight before saying, "The little kitty's angry~"

Sakura, sitting to the side, watched the interaction between her two "selves," her expression strange and her feelings complicated, she just wanted to cover her face...

P.S.: Give it a push.

Chapter 9 My name is Maria, let's get to know each other.

"Ugh……"

After leaving the hotel again, Bianca stood downstairs and sighed softly, her expression a mixture of helplessness and something else.

In her view, the fact that she herself was in conflict due to differing beliefs was practically unique. It was so strange…

However, there's nothing that can be done about it. Because of their physical memories and different personalities, the goose often can't agree with Möbius's views and ideas.

"Never mind, let's go look around some more."

After a moment, Bianca composed herself, looked around at the familiar streets, and murmured to herself.

In Dai'e's opinion, now that she's out again and doesn't want to go back anytime soon, she might as well take this opportunity to wander around some more.

Since we've already decided to stay here, there's no harm in learning more about this place.

Furthermore, Bianca also needs to check on the current situation of the Cavaliers' competition, as well as the rules of the game.

Group: 543659389

Although she already knew many things through the game's storyline, things are different now... a lot of things have changed.

So since I've already decided to participate, I feel it's necessary for me to learn more about it.

……

However, before Bianca even reached the registration area or the arena, she already knew the detailed competition rules...

You ask how I knew? Well, it's because when I was walking down the street, I received a flyer about the Knights' Arena, and it contained very detailed information.

After carefully reviewing the flyer, Bianca compared it with her memory and found that the rules of the Knights Arena had not changed much.

This competition, like before, still consists of a points tournament, a qualifying tournament, and a special Cavaliers tournament.

Unlike some specially invited grand knightly orders or knightly orders that directly enter the final tournament, ordinary people who participate in the competition step by step need to stand out from the various events in order to participate in the final tournament.

However, even with sponsorship and support, it is extremely difficult for an ordinary knight to stand out from the crowd.

Moreover, during the match... as long as you pay enough, spectators can interfere with the game. For example, they can send supplies to their favorite knight, or use drones to disrupt knights they dislike...

Although these rules are not a big problem for Bianca, they don't even have the slightest impact on her in the face of absolute power.

But no matter how many times she watched it... she still couldn't like it, and could even say she hated it, because the competition lacked even the most basic fairness.

"call--"

After taking a deep breath, Bianca turned her gaze back to the event date with a complicated expression.

There's not much time left before the end of the qualifying rounds and the registration deadline... If she really wants to take action, she should register now.

"So you've actually gotten caught up in this dilemma..." Bianca quickly looked away and murmured softly.

As these words fell, the goose gradually dispelled the turmoil in its heart, and a determined look reappeared in its azure eyes.

Bianca wasn't one to overthink things, and now that she'd already spoken, and had already begun to waver and make a choice, she would stop hesitating...

There are some things that even she herself dislikes, but if they can achieve a good result or goal, she might as well do them. She does want to become a knight like Roland, but she is not pedantic.

Moreover, Bianca cares more about whether she can help other people in need than about her own preferences and emotions.

After regaining her senses, Bianca clenched her fists, stopped lingering, and continued walking towards the registration area for the Knights' Arena.

-------------------

Knights' Arena Registration Office —

"..."

After leaving the registration area, Bianca slightly raised her head to look at the sun in the sky, which was not scorching but still gentle, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

After calming herself down a bit, Dai'e left, planning to continue exploring the city and grab something to eat.

She hadn't eaten anything since she was summoned, and it was already three or four in the afternoon... She was starting to feel hungry.

It's worth noting that Bianca's daily routine is generally very healthy. After all, she always has someone around to remind and take care of her.

Then, as Bianca walked around looking for a suitable shop, she reached a street corner...

"boom--"

A golden figure suddenly darted out and collided head-on with Bianca, who was also somewhat distracted.

The two figures collided, but the silly goose's body didn't even sway. On the contrary, the other figure stumbled and fell backward.

"careful!"

Bianca, realizing what was happening, quickly stepped forward and caught the figure that was about to fall to the ground.

"Are you alright...?"

Before Bianca could finish her words of concern, her voice trailed off as she looked at the person she was supporting. Instead, a question mark slowly appeared above her head.

"Ah! I, I'm fine. Sorry, I bumped into you by accident. It's all my fault for being so reckless." After hearing Bianca's words, the girl who bumped into her quickly realized her mistake and hurriedly said.

"It's alright, just be more careful next time. It wouldn't be good if you accidentally got hurt." Hearing this, Bianca slowly released her hand from the girl's, then suppressed her "confused" expression and solemnly gave her some advice.

"Okay, thank you, I'll be careful."

The girl, who had regained her composure, nodded gently in response to Bianca's instructions and humbly agreed.

"Then I shall inform you here..."

"Goo~"
