Margaret nodded in response, but Maria rushed over, picked up Talina, and spun her around.
"Why don't you come to see me? I've been waiting for you at home for a long time!"
Maria was reluctant to let go of the person she had been thinking about day and night, but this was outside after all, and she didn't want to cause any bad influence, so she had to give up the idea of holding him.
"Is your hand okay?"
Looking at Maria's arm that could now move freely, Talina frowned and asked.
She remembered that the doctor had told her to rest. Although she was not heavy, she was still a burden. Maria's move was a bit too reckless.
"It's been healed for a long time! If you don't believe me, just look!"
Hearing Talina's reproach, Maria felt happy in her heart. She immediately rolled up her sleeves and stretched her white and tender arms in front of Talina.
As a Pegasus, her physical fitness is much better than that of the average Kuranta, otherwise she would not be able to withstand Zofia's devilish training.
The doctor's advice is only for ordinary people and is useless to her.
Talina pinched Maria's arm carefully a few times with doubt, and only after making sure that Maria did not feel any discomfort did she reluctantly believe what she said.
Despite this, Talina still naggingly said: "After all, it's a broken bone, it's always good to rest for a while..."
Listening to Talina's nagging, Maria did not feel annoyed as usual when listening to Sofia's nagging. Instead, she listened carefully and kept Talina's words in mind.
"By the way, why are you here? Doesn't Margaret still have a competition?"
After giving the instructions, Talina suddenly remembered the problem she had when she came out.
Shouldn't these two sisters be preparing for the competition right now? Why would they be hanging out on Rhodes Island?
"I got a bye, thanks to Maria. I saved myself a lot of energy and can now focus on preparing for the match."
Margaret began to explain.
Because Maria worked her way up from the bottom step by step, Margaret inherited her points and also gained corresponding privileges.
After all, she is the Knight of Glory, and the audience wants to see a battle between strong ones, not the bullying of weak ones, so the Chamber of Commerce naturally gave her the green light.
That’s right, the Chamber of Commerce gave the green light.
As money-loving admirers, they had already seen Margaret's potential. Even if she did not submit to the Chamber of Commerce, they could still take the opportunity to make a large sum of money.
They could also hype this up, letting Margaret's identity as an "infected person" ferment and bring about a sensational battle.
"Are you free? If so, how about coming with us? Maria said she wanted to visit the forge on Rhodes Island, and I couldn't persuade her, so I had to bring her here."
Looking at her sister who couldn't contain her excitement, Margaret simply fulfilled her wish and extended an invitation to Talina.
"Okay, there's something I want to know from you guys."
Talina, who originally intended to travel with the other party, nodded and agreed without much consideration.
Before leaving, Margaret glanced back at the bar behind her and hesitantly whispered, "Do you want to go over and tell them? After all, Rosemary is in there..."
Having spent some time in Rhodes Island, she already knew about the relationship between Talina and Rosemary, so she was a little hesitant.
After all, the child is sick and needs company. Wouldn't it be inappropriate to just call him away like that?
"It's okay, I found a friend for her, someone will be there for her."
Turning her head to look at Rosemary who was getting along well with Keobe in the house, Talina sincerely hoped that she could step out of her protective circle and get to know more people.
After all, humans are social animals. If you hold it in for too long, you will probably get into trouble.
After taking a final look, Talina turned around and left with Margaret.
Inside the house, Rosemary scratched at the window with her little paws, her pupils wide open as she watched Talina walk away.
At this moment, she felt extremely regretful. She regretted listening to that dog-headed military advisor. She wanted to play hard to get, but who would have thought that she would directly push the ambiguous Talina to the side of family affection.
Obviously...this is not what she wants!
Next to her was Ceope, who was enjoying her meal. She was so cheerful that she didn't care about Rosemary's little behavior at all, and just thought that she was thinking about Talina.
After all, she doesn't understand this kind of thing at all. To her, being liked is not as important as having a full meal.
"Kitten, eat cookies~"
.........
"You mean...you met opponents like Corruption and Withering?"
Listening to Talina's words, Margaret began to think seriously.
She knew that Talina had rescued Maria, and she also knew that their opponents were Corruption and Decay, who were secretly trained by the Chamber of Commerce to attack the enemy by surprise.
After they lost the preliminary round of the competition, the profit-seeking Business Association considered them a failure and put them on ice.
I didn't expect to see them on the field again.
Just in another way.
Is the potion made based on their blood?
Or does the Commercial Federation have the technology to mass-produce knights of this level?
Margaret personally infers that it is the former.
Even though Corruption and Decay lost in the preliminary round, it was just because they were unlucky and met Maria and Talina, which led to their regretful exit.
To be honest, the two brothers together have at least the strength of the top four.
Moreover, if the Chamber of Commerce really had this kind of technology, it would have fallen out with the Securities and Exchange Commission long ago. Why would it need to engage in a war of words in the National Assembly every day?
"Don't worry, it's most likely that Carol just happens to be able to withstand that strange power, so she was arranged to be your opponent."
"From what you've said, it seems he has no other tricks up his sleeve besides being a bit stronger and more physical. Just treat him like a normal opponent."
As she spoke, Margaret comforted Talina.
"By the way, isn't Miss Senomi still here? If she's here, nothing will go wrong. Don't worry, you're the champion of the Summer Grand Prix. Just treat it as a trip for fun. It won't make much difference anyway."
Margaret, who had been in the army for a period of time, suddenly thought of Senomi, who was also a knight.
Although the two of them didn't know much about each other, she believed in Senomi's character and the people behind her. If they could bring Talina in, they must be confident that they could take Talina out.
"Summer Grand Prix? What's that?"
Maria, who was struggling to figure out how to start a conversation with Talina, suddenly heard an unfamiliar word and quickly spoke out to make her presence felt.
"It's an event in Dosores. Just think of it as a small knight competition. It's pretty much the same thing anyway."
When Margaret brought up that memory, Talina couldn't help but quiet down.
I don’t know how Chen is doing now... Has she found her classmates, or has she gone to find Tallulah?
Hmm... I'll have to find a chance to ask later...
"That must be exciting!"
Maria, who had never left the Great Knight Territory, immediately opened up and pestered Talina to tell her interesting stories she had encountered outside.
Talina couldn't resist, so she just made up a few things to deal with Maria.
But Talina underestimated the poor child's knowledge. Even if it was a trivial matter that seemed very ordinary to Talina, Maria still listened with great interest.
"elder sister!"
After listening to what Talina said about Chernobog, Maria couldn't help but look at her elder sister with admiration.
The things that Margaret had downplayed were emphasized by Talina, which made Maria realize that her sister seemed to be hiding something from her.
"I'll tell you when I get back..."
Covering her head with a wry smile, Margaret turned to Talina for help.
"What has the Doctor been doing lately? Why doesn't he seem to have seen her?"
Talina received Margaret's signal for help and took the opportunity to provide cover.
"Ah! I know, I know!"
Without waiting for Margaret to answer, Maria raised her arm and jumped in front of Talina like a student answering a teacher's question.
"The doctor has been looking for information on those companies in the Great Knight Territory recently! He even found Uncle Manna!"
Volume 7: Chapter 28: Departure
Did you find someone to go to Mainna’s company?
Isn't that a subsidiary of the Chamber of Commerce?
I vaguely remember that Talina at Mainna's company was a little confused and didn't understand why Kal'tsit and the Doctor would go to the Chamber of Commerce.
In a way, she and Margaret represent the attitude of the CSRC. Why would they abandon their two natural allies and go to the Chamber of Commerce?
It's true that the Chamber of Commerce is rich, but their power is not as great as that of the Securities and Futures Commission...
I don't understand...
"I don't know why they went there, but I trust the doctor's decision. Rhodes Island's stance is very sensitive, and leaning towards either side will lead to unexpected consequences."
Margaret shook her head, not understanding why the doctor would make such a decision.
But in all her time on Rhodes Island, she had never seen the Doctor make a mistake, not even once.
Even though she had lost most of her memories, she was still able to make the best choice based on her instincts. Margaret was willing to believe it this time.
"Now that you say that..."
Rubbing her forehead, Talina replied helplessly: "Let's leave it at that for now..."
"Alright, alright! Don't be unhappy! Why do you always think so much?! It's okay as long as I'm here!"
Seeing that Talina was a little disappointed, Maria walked up and put her arm around her familiarly.
She seemed to be born with a kind of magic that could infect the people around her and make them gradually forget their worries. Talina had tried this countless times in the past few years.
It works just as well now.
After being disturbed by Maria's actions, Talina no longer bothered about these things.
Rhodes Island is Rhodes Island, and she is her. Although they have a good relationship, she is not close enough to tie up Rhodes Island without permission.
Moreover, she also believed that Rhodes Island would not sit idly by and allow herself and Margaret to be harmed, because...
This does not agree with the doctor's approach.
It is instinctive to seek benefits and avoid harm. She has never seen anyone who would take the initiative to cut off his own retreat.
When there is something to do, you are busy; when there is nothing to do, you are idle.
After a long journey, the two finally brought Maria to the forge in Rhodes Island.
When Maria saw something she liked, she forgot about Talina and Margaret for a moment and went forward by herself.
There weren't many people in the forge, only a few besides the God of Fire.
Talina didn't want to disturb them, so she simply stood outside with Margaret and chatted with her.
Both of them have broad knowledge, so they can talk about anything.
"You still need to be careful with the Chamber of Commerce. Even though they haven't made any moves yet, it's always a good idea to be on guard."
Looking at Maria who was asking for advice inside, Margaret reminded Talina.
As a champion who had reached the top of the knight competition, she knew those guys' methods too well, which were nothing more than recruiting and suppressing.
Talina is affiliated with the CSRC, so the former cannot be used on her, and basically the only option is suppression.
The Chamber of Commerce's common method of suppression is the Heroless Alliance hidden in the shadows. Margaret knows very well how dangerous it is, so she spoke out to remind them.
"Well, I know."
Nodding carefully, Talina took Margaret's words to heart.
She knew very well how powerful the Wuzhu League was. Zofia had been retaliated against a few years ago. If Mainna had not arrived in time, something would have happened long ago.
Should I make some preparations myself?
With her eyes rolling around, a great idea suddenly popped up in Talina's mind.
Hiding her own little thoughts secretly, Talina chatted with Margaret for a while, and after Maria had had her fill, the three of them left together.
Along the way, Maria was like a little alarm clock that never went out of power. She chattered with Talina and the others, and her excitement and happiness could be clearly felt by others.
For Maria, today was special. Not only did she come to a new place, but she was also accompanied by her sister and friends. If she had not promised Margaret to go back early, she would probably have stayed for a while longer.
