Arknights, but the sickly pretty girl starts

Russell lowered her eyes. How could she not be proud of Margaret who could draw out the sword of the martyr? How could she not be proud of Margaret who put down the sword of the martyr?

If drawing out the martyr's sword represents that she is the most determined knight, then putting down the martyr's sword represents that she is the most just knight.

"Master..." Lime appeared in front of Ms. Russell. Since that day, Lime almost never went out of the house, but now he seemed to have no confusion.

"Rhyme, you saw it," Ms. Russell said with a smile. "She gave the honor to Margaret. She chose Margaret."

"Ah."

"Then what's your decision?"

"If she chooses Margaret Linguang, then I will do the same," Lime responded. "I will obey your orders and inherit the Silver Spear Pegasus, for Casimir and... for her."

Chapter 202: Limit

"The Commerce Federation ultimately failed to guess our purpose," Ms. Russell said, gazing at Lime, who had donned the Silver Spear Pegasus Captain's armor. "Of course... they must have assumed you were here to take advantage of them, to consolidate the Supervisory Council's power."

Russell's expression was complicated. "Of course, I don't deny that. In fact, we definitely have this purpose. The Supervisory Committee has already supervised and overseen Plot Zero. The Business Federation will definitely pay the price for this."

But - the businessmen will definitely not understand how far we can go for Margaret Linguang.

"Don't fear hardship or darkness." This is the Linguang family's ancestral motto, but this sentence is engraved on the shields, spears, and swords of nearly thirty Silver Spear Pegasus Knights.

In that war, in that hopeless battle, in the middle of the dark swamp, Cyril Linguang vowed to save every besieged knight.

With no supplies, no communications, the army's artillery divisions and mobile units were hunting them down.

Only seven knights were persuaded by Lin Guang to join the rescue operation. Before setting out, each of them carved "Not afraid of hardship and darkness" on his shield.

——Seven knights set out, but forty-one returned.

But of the seven knights who set out, only I, Noah's grandfather, and Cyril returned.

——Russell recalled the fierce fight that day, and it was still vivid in his mind.

From then on, all forty-one people had this inscription engraved on their bodies, on their swords, armor, staffs, and shields.

In the end, three thousand enemies were killed, and forty-six knight shields with their respective family crests were all returned to Casimir's land, without any being left behind.

Dawn of the Golden Plains, this battle is familiar to every knight who has fought in the war. It is a required course.

"The Commercial Federation wants to harm the children of the Linguang family..." Russell's eyes were dignified. This kind old man had never shown such murderous intent. "Hehe, how are their military reserves?"

When Russell was narrating these things, he deliberately avoided a topic.

These knights were obviously here for Margaret, but...

There are also people who are dissatisfied with the current head of the Kirilet family, so she cannot mention Noah's name in this situation, even if she wants to protect Noah.

This was the price of being in a high position and having great power. She had to speak the right words, especially in front of this group of indignant knights.

She could only sigh inwardly, lamenting that she couldn't even protect her old friend's daughter.

However, perhaps when she asked about the whereabouts of her parents and she remained silent, she was no longer her elder.

After all, she had rejected all my offers of help since then...

There was only a fleeting glint of pity in Ms. Russell's eyes, and at that moment, a messenger hurried to her side and whispered something to her.

"……what?"

-

Boom——

Back on the field, Margaret, who had given up the power of the Martyr's Sword, clashed with the Blood Knight once again. The armor howled under the heavy burden. Even the armor made of the material of the Tenkai Dragon seemed unable to withstand the pressure of the two people's strength confrontation. However, Margaret had to admit that this set of armor had helped her block many attacks. When the two people's Originium skills collided, the explosion raised smoke and dust, and the first person to emerge from the smoke and dust was the Blood Knight - he was repelled.

The Blood Knight's palms felt numb as he retreated, and he had to switch his weapon to his non-dominant hand.

Originally, people thought that the Blood Knight had suffered a great loss, but after the smoke and dust cleared, they found that the Brilliant Knight was using her sword and spear to support the ground, which prevented her from flying out directly.

Compared to the Blood Knight, Margaret seemed to be in a worse condition, but the Blood Knight's offensive did not decrease. He continued to rush forward - launching the charge that a knight should have.

He wanted to defeat Margaret in one breath before she could catch her breath, but when the Blood Knight was about to touch Margaret, she had already raised her head, and the previous delay had disappeared. Now the Golden Pegasus began to transform again on the battlefield.

"Faced with an attack... you didn't dodge or counterattack, but instead resisted—are you trying to kill yourself?"

"Sometimes, you can't retreat even a single step. Once you do, you've lost." After Margaret recovered her breath, her aura intensified like wildfire. "Isn't that my little lesson?"

"Hmph, nothing more than that—" The close combat between the Blood Knight and the Shining Knight became more and more intense. Margaret's sword and spear were forced to retract and be used as a greatsword. The greatsword and the blood blade, light and blood, speed, strength, and Originium skills.

Risk everything to defeat the worthy knight before him.

In such a fierce battle, many words were replaced by the sound of weapons clashing, but two true knights could fully convey their will with swords.

This is a unique dialogue between two wills, two heroes, and two rebels.

The Blood Knight who cast the spell originally wanted to restrain Margaret's movements through blood resonance, but the next moment Margaret interrupted the resonance with her own Originium skills. Margaret, who was shining with brilliance, seemed to have entered an invincible time at this moment. Any attack was resolved by her, making it difficult for people to look away.

Moreover, her strength is getting stronger and stronger. Unlike ordinary people who become weaker as the battle goes on, the Golden Pegasus is a fighting race - their characteristic is that they become braver as the battle goes on.

With a resounding explosion, the Blood Knight was forced to his knees by the force of the sword and spear. The force even cracked the reinforced arena after being transmitted underground. It's easy to imagine how terrifying Margaret's power was at that moment.

But Margaret was stunned——

"No...your power."

“…” The Blood Knight did not speak, but stood up silently and swung the blood blade again, intending to regroup.

But from that moment on, Margaret felt something was wrong. The opponent's strength... and skills were all changing. It was as if he was enduring something, which was completely different from the beginning.

"Ugh..." A sudden sharp pain shot through his body. The Blood Knight, who had overused Originium techniques, had begun to show abnormalities in his body, causing his moves to become deformed. This was the pain that Ore Disease patients were familiar with...

I clearly took the medicine just before the game...

Did you use too much force?

No... Could it be...

The Blood Knight held himself up, even if he had physical problems, he would never bow to fate.

This pain was different from burns, cuts, frostbite, or any other pain he had experienced on the court. This pain came from deep within his body.

He's reached his limit.

Chapter 203: Incitement

No one knows the condition of his body better than him.

But he didn't intend to stop because of the change in his physical condition. He had to move forward and had to stop Margaret.

There is a saying that the setting sun is like blood... Now the Blood Knight feels that it is very appropriate.

Indeed, he was like the setting sun...

He could break down at any time and anywhere.

Margaret realized something. The only reason for the opponent's sudden drop in combat effectiveness could be the onset of Oripathy. For a late-stage patient like the Blood Knight, even if they took medication to suppress it before the match, there was still a chance of Oripathy flaring up during such a high-intensity battle.

The Blood Knight's Ore Disease has become so severe...

The outcome of the battle seemed to have been decided.

Noah took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled. This was her way of relieving tension. From the beginning, the emotions of the entire arena had gathered in her heart. The excitement, the cheers, the longings, all seemed so clear in her perception.

Don’t be nervous…absorb the emotions…didn’t the teacher teach you that?

Use emotions as your weapon to manipulate people's subconscious mind and guide the flow of emotions.

It makes people...more enthusiastic, like dropping a match into a gas tank. Then, the explosion will be deafening.

However, it was a very difficult thing for Noah to manipulate so many emotions for the first time. She held the music box in her arms, and the earthly sounds in the music box had entered Noah's mind, but the music box itself was still an excellent container. If it were not for the existence of this music box, Noah might have collapsed under the massive amount of emotions.

Like the Blood Knight on the field, she was also overloading her Originium skills. The shadow under her feet began to become unstable, and ripples began to appear. Nightmare's ability was to manipulate fear.

But Noah might have some mutations. Her ability is not so much to manipulate fear... as to manipulate emotions.

When human emotions flow outward, they're like a continuous stream of signals, constantly emitting them. Noya acts like a receiver, gathering these emotions and not only receiving them but also manipulating them through Originium techniques. Allowing these emotions to enter the body is also a form of mental torture for Noya. Imagine being in a confined space, bombarded with endless high-frequency noise from all directions.

These roars, whispers, curses, and anger came from the emotions of thousands of people in this stadium - even the entire Casimir.

Noah had been waiting for this opportunity, the chance to bring all his emotions together in one place.

When she asked Herhunzollon for this spell, the other party was also surprised by Noya's idea, which was to gather emotions in one place, intensify them, and let the emotions infect each other, and finally converge into one will.

Margaret wanted to awaken Casimir's will, wanted to make this will that belonged to Casimir shine again -

it is good.

Noah thought of a way, a way to achieve this goal.

In this case, then all the negative, timid, and emotions that try to hinder Margaret should be absorbed by herself.

As long as Margaret can really wake these people up... then I can raise this probability to 100% -

Kuro stared at Noah's seemingly calm face, but the sensitive her already knew that Noah was releasing an unprecedented Originium skill, an Originium skill that had never been seen or heard of before. It was an Originium skill that covered almost the entire arena. In this arena, those emotions were being ignited, from one person to another, like a burning torch. She could hardly imagine what Noah was doing now.

"...A Sonata of Awakening." Herhunzolen, sitting in the palace, rested his chin on his hand as he watched Noya's actions unfold on screen, a mocking smile on his face. "Trying to awaken a nation this way? By yourself? Foolish, insane, sheer folly. But if you can truly accomplish this feat..."

Herhunzollon suddenly thought of his own Leitania——

"Unique and extraordinary talent, empathy for others, and courage—you are truly worthy of being my disciple. Noah Kyrielight."

-

The clanging of armors clashed, and Monica, who was guarding outside the stadium, felt inexplicably restless inside. This was an experience she had never had before, as if her emotions were being affected by the cheers in the stadium. This inexplicable acceleration of her heartbeat... was really unexpected and weird.

But soon, she couldn't laugh anymore——

Because in front of her was a group of knights in white armor - Silver Spear Pigassos.

Casimir's greatest violence.

"...Wuzhou League, are there only a few of you?" Seven silver-spear Pegasus appeared in front of Monique.

"...It sounds like you think we're just appetizers?" Monique twitched the corner of her mouth. She knew that it was unlikely for her to confront Silver Spear Pegasus with a few worthless people, but she couldn't lose verbally, right?

"...You only brought seven of you?" But soon, she realized that the seven Silver Spear Pegasus didn't seem to have any other support behind them, and her face instantly turned pale. "Aren't you a little too confident?"

"...Don't get me wrong, we're just here to take a look." Then, four of the Silver Spear Pegasus took a step back. "Three of us will be enough."

"..." Monique's veins bulged. It had been a long time since she had seen such naked contempt. "You're really... polite."

"You're welcome. Maybe you can let us play a fourth person."

-

Within the arena, the infectious power of emotions has begun to spread, as if it were contagious - more and more people have been stirred up and are sinking into this almost tidal ocean of emotions.

"Margaret! Win it!"

"Blood Knight! Don't lose! I've bet a lot on you!"

"Shining Knight!! Shining Knight!"

"Don't pull me! Blood Knight! You are invincible!"

"...Is everyone a little too excited?" The Doctor, sitting in the audience, scratched his head unconsciously. Not only the others, but even Shining and Nightingale seemed to be getting a little restless. Amiya, the only one who seemed to have noticed something, looked around and tugged at the Doctor's sleeve.

"...It feels...very strange...Everyone's emotions are assimilating."

"What do you mean?"

"It's hard to describe, but... everyone's emotions are contagious." Amiya was also witnessing this scene for the first time. "The entire arena seems to have been stirred by emotion. And the person driving the emotions probably isn't the commentator... or Operator Lin Guang or Blood Knight. It's like someone is inciting them."

Chapter 204: Medical Knights (4k)

The audience's shouts are for themselves.

Even if the knights on the field can't hear her, as long as she remembers that someone supports her, she won't fall.

Light, as bright as the sun.

And the blood steps into the sunset.

The words had completely disappeared. The frenzy of the arena did not affect the two of them, and Noah did not want to affect the duel between the two knights.

Big Mouth Mob was at a loss for words—there was no need for any adjectives or explanations. The crowd was already going crazy over the battle between the two knights. His voice was even far less loud than the audience in the auditorium, which had no speakers, and would be completely drowned out.

"Shining Knight——"

"Ok?"
