Herrscher of Reason's Arknights

but····

Sodium chloride simply hung its hands at its sides, without even assuming a forward stance.

It's a basic tactic to incite hatred by killing the other person's family members upon seeing a symbol.

Having seen sodium chloride many times, I didn't have much of a reaction, but I did ask a question.

What color is it?

"?"

What the hell?

"I said, what color is she, the one you see?"

Sodium Chloride, who wasn't good at communicating, thought for a moment, then gestured with her finger above her head and nodded to Yelena beside her.

"····ha?"

The Sarkaz girl was taken aback.

Of course, it wasn't because of the way she spoke, but because of what she said.

Those who are sent by the world's will to work, like her, all know that they can see the prompts above the heads of the chosen ones of the plane.

This is exactly what is meant by the protagonist's halo.

They all play various villains in different dimensions. Some like to form gangs and harm one side, while others are simply power-type characters who specialize in persecuting the protagonist.

But their only commonality is that they use identifiers to identify people.

But this commonality is something only the "bad guys" know. How did her sister know it?

Could it be that...?

"The same to you?"

Sodium chloride didn't speak, but it simply nodded.

This is the contract, at least for outsiders like them.

Their respective leaders did not stipulate that they could not kill each other, after all, they were essentially a group of lawless and evil people.

However, they don't really have any real interests involved, so it's difficult for them to fight, since there's no reason for it to happen unless it's a deliberate sparring match.

"Oh, it seems there's been a misunderstanding."

Pianna lightly covered her lips, feigning fright, looking innocent and endearing. However, Sodium Chloride, who had nearly come to blows with this utterly disrespectful and dignified man, certainly knew Pianna…

No, to be precise, what kind of people are like her?

After all, she was one of Pianna's kind.

However, it must be said that compared to her belief in methodology, the Sarkaz socialite in front of her seems to be much better at acting.

After all, this aristocratic affectation had almost seeped into their very bones.

Clearly, the other party was also a believer in the power faction, their mechanical structure resembling that of a raging beast. But in the blink of an eye, they transformed back into a gentle and refined demeanor, as if nothing had happened.

Little Yelena didn't even notice the change in her.

He seems like a troublesome fellow.

·······················

No, this guy is a troublesome thing.

"So the colors have to be the same?"

He put the fries in his mouth; despite being dressed like an aristocrat, he didn't refuse this commoner's food at all.

Little Yelena was already asleep, and the empty clinic was left with only sodium chloride and this uninvited troublemaker.

"Yes, the colors match. You see, her color is gray?"

"uh-huh."

"What colors did you see before?"

"Purple."

"That's alright, you've got the wrong person anyway."

With his arms crossed, Sodium Chloride wasn't the type to enjoy talking to people. After informing the other person that they had the wrong person, he leaned back in his chair with his arms crossed, waiting for the guy in front of him to go back to where he came from.

What should have been a frustrating experience, like sodium chloride, made her feel a little annoyed after confirming that Chen wasn't the person she was looking for.

However, the Sarkaz girl revealed a somewhat charming smile.

At least to outsiders, the girl named Piana in front of them possessed all the qualities of every man's dream lover.

Beautiful, dignified, alluring and noble, full of mystery.

But for some reason, this smile always made sodium chloride feel a little...uncomfortable.

Those were eyes that were completely undisguised.

Doesn't this guy know how to cover himself up?!

And the doctor in the eyes of this Sarkaz nobleman.

Silver hair, golden eyes, aloof and arrogant, and although he's a bit flat-chested, that's not a problem.

A stunning beauty, or perhaps an ice queen.

It hardened; the hunting genes hardened.

Even the look of disdain flashing in those golden eyes was so... moving.

It should be understood that humans generally have a penchant for forcing good women into prostitution, and then persuading them to reform.

The more aloof someone is, the more satisfying it is to show that kind of expression.

Pianna doesn't like to hide her desires.

She values ​​her desires and can fully accept the fact that she is a beast of desire.

Compared to the ascetic beauty in front of him, they were simply incompatible.

But it's also very tempting.

"Hmm~ no."

"?"

I mean...

—You didn't make a mistake at all!

·············

P.S.: Ugh, so many things to do at home. It's so much more comfortable living alone. I can't even take a nap at noon.

I miss home when I'm away for a long time, but after more than a year, I found that I get tired of it after just one month at home, and within a few days, we go from being affectionate to disliking each other. [collapses]

Indeed, people can't stay at their parents' house for too long; sooner or later, conflicts will arise.

Recently, there's been a sudden increase in people joining the group, so it seems the promotion is quite effective.

I feel like this book is almost at my goal. I'm thinking about whether to ask an artist I know to do a commission, like a family portrait of Yelena and Sodium Chloride.

I think it's worth considering. If it's not too expensive, then forget it. Or maybe I could get a cover or something?

I think it's pretty good.

By the way, what did you think of this collaboration? After I finish the Exusiai manga, I'll consider rewriting the W manga. It has many problems, like its popularity and quality aren't proportional; it's well-written but nobody reads it, so there must be something wrong with it. [Heart emoji]

Chapter 58: Reflections on the Release

I just finished writing the outline for the new section, and now I'm starting to write my acknowledgments.

It's on the shelves tomorrow.

I'm a little nervous, after all, this is the first time it's been listed.

People are always like this; one moment they feel like they're invincible and this is going to be a sure thing, but the next moment they feel like they might not make it.

Overall, it's not bad. After all, the number of favorites increased by more than 500 at midnight on the first recommendation. Generally, more than 500 means that the book is passable, which is my motivation to continue writing.

It's said that Hedgehog Cat will offer a bounty for updates after it's released, but in a sense, this is my first time releasing a book, so I don't know how the bounty system actually works. Therefore, I need to ask other authors or Orange first to figure out how to handle the bounty system more safely, so as not to end up embarrassing myself.

However, there will be additional measures, and a reward is being considered. We should be able to come up with a solution in a few days.

After all, I still don't even understand how to view the enhancement chart in the author's backend [facepalm]

Of course, that's the first part. Let's talk about the second part, about this book.

Actually, this book was published once before, but because of the title and my misjudgment of the popularity of the original novel, I had to publish three or four more chapters before taking it back, revising it, and republishing it. I removed all the original content about the original novel and changed it to the way it is now.

This book originated from the idea of ​​an unemployed herald finding a new job, but unfortunately, the popularity of the original work didn't quite reach Hedgehog Cat, so I had to give up on it.

However, most of my previous concerns about this book disappeared after the first recommendation. After all, it was clear that the actual results exceeded my expectations. The number of favorites jumped from over a thousand to two thousand on the first day, which was truly amazing.

I've always considered myself to be one of the unlucky ones. Before signing any contracts, my grades are usually decent, but once I do, some unforeseen event always happens. Either I sign too late and don't get a single recommendation, or I discover my bank card and phone number don't match, and when I try to correct it, the bank is on holiday and it takes three days to process the card. It's like a nightmare.

Fortunately, good things come to those who wait, and this time there weren't any major problems, so it's still acceptable for my second book.

It seems like everything is getting better.jpg

Well, anyway, I hope you readers will support this release! [crying emoji]

It would be even better if we could keep following this thread! [hehe]

If possible, please remember to turn on auto-subscription! [Heart emoji]

Section 59, Chapter Fifty-Seven: [The Bystander Sees More Clearly]

Chen Huijie was not the target he was looking for.

However, the existence of the main character has already been confirmed.

Yelena... is not someone she needs to concern herself with.

There might even be someone specifically assigned to handle Yelena's problems.

After all, the protagonist symbol above her head wasn't fake; it was just that the color didn't match.

What was the point of all those so-called "investments" I made before?!

I thought this person was someone I could train, but I discovered that this thing is a one-time use item that cannot be recycled!

so troublesome.

So why should I get involved in this kind of thing?

Ultimately, she, sodium chloride, was just an ordinary villain, diligently completing her work in exchange for payment, and waiting for the right time to exchange for the opportunity to escape all of this.

Then, truly find your own peaceful life.

And being a villain isn't always bad, since it's a legitimate way to relieve stress.

The manic feeling was an uncontrollable negative emotion for her, much like the Honkai itself had the urge to devour everything.

Just as one cannot stop fingernails from growing, she cannot completely cut off such desires. She can only relieve these desires by constantly de-stressing in order to avoid driving herself completely insane.

After all, no one among the wicked is truly a normal person.

After all, a normal person would probably have died at the protagonist's hands long ago.

The life she pursues is completely contrary to the existence of Yelena. A child will attract countless eyes and even make it impossible for her to continue to pursue a peaceful life with a clear conscience.

But... I actually worried about her.

Things that are truly hard to understand.

No, that was just because of the investment; it was an effort I made to prevent my investment from going to waste.

But... what about now?

She was starting to dislike her manager.
