In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

But Helatia was curious.

"Do you have any children?"

"...His name is Elfaniel."

"It's a beautiful name..."

Helatia blinked and looked thoughtful.

"girl?"

"It's a boy."

"I have some surprises again... It seems that since I met you, I always receive some wonderful surprises."

Helatia blinked, her eyes wandering.

"Come to think of it, I talked about this topic with other people last time... They also asked me what I would name my child if I had one in the future."

"So…what are you going to call your future child?"

"This is a very embarrassing topic."

Helatia smiled.

"But I did make a temporary provision... would you like to hear it?"

"..."

Maria didn't answer, but her calm eyes were her response.

Helatia did not hide it and gave her answer immediately.

"I plan to call my future child...Gladia."

"..."

Maria paused.

400

Chapter 400 Maria is missing!

Golletia...

After hearing the name, Maria had to admit that she was stunned for a while.

Especially after asking the other party, I learned that this name is rare even among the Agor people.

"At least, I haven't heard of anyone having a child with that name."

Helatia looked at Maria in front of her and felt a little curious.

She turned around and kept looking at Maria.

"Have you heard of that name?"

“…That was a long time ago.”

Maria gave her answer.

But this answer left Helatia somewhat puzzled.

A long time later?

Shouldn't it be a long time ago?

Slip of the tongue?

Helatia was a little confused.

But Maria didn't mean to explain anything.

After just continuing to dance with the other person for a while, he quietly went off the stage to rest.

And Helatia did not continue to look for a new dance partner to socialize, but just stayed by Maria's side.

I have to say, as a person...Maria's charm is almost endless.

Powerful enough to operate at depths of ten thousand meters, a beauty that seemed to have emerged from a classical oil painting, and knowledge that had yet to be fully revealed...

All of this actually revolves around Helatia's interests.

To the point that, now, she can't even think of anything else.

She just wanted to know more about Maria.

And it was during this time that the concert performance gradually reached its climax.

There was no host's announcement, and everyone started applauding as if they had been prepared for it. After the previous band finished their performance, they began to applaud.

The situation did not subside until another group of performers came on stage.

Maria noticed that the man named Ulpian was standing in the most prominent position in the team. There was no doubt that he was the protagonist of this concert.

He bowed, turned around, and faced his companions.

The music begins...

It started with the familiar percussion music, and the melody was exactly the same one Maria had heard during the day.

But the difference was that the other party really listened to Maria's advice. In just half a day, they arranged for other performers to join in and fill in the gaps between the syllables...

The melodious music is like a river, flowing slowly with some collisions, just like the slight differences in height that a river encounters while flowing. The sense of rhythm is weakened, but the continuity is greatly enhanced.

Almost everyone was immersed in it unconsciously, forgetting the beginning and unable to tell when it would end.

Many of the invitees showed surprised expressions.

Obviously, many people actually knew about this young musician, but they did not expect that this time, he could actually give them such a performance!

He deserves the title of genius!

Maria was also listening quietly.

only……

"Ok?"

Maria turned her head slightly and looked into the darkness.

"Ok?"

Helatia noticed Maria's strange behavior and blinked curiously. Then she dipped her hand in a little water and wrote on the table.

【What happened? 】

"..."

Maria did not answer. She just turned her head silently and looked at the darkness around her.

The familiar yet unfamiliar smell of the sea is slowly swaying...

And on the other side.

"What's wrong with me..."

The maid rubbed her brows, feeling a little dizzy.

She was supposed to be working backstage.

But I don’t know what’s going on.

She was in a trance and sneaked into the dinner party.

By the time she came to her senses, Maria had already looked over.

This frightened her so much that she turned around and prepared to run away.

But think about it...why did I run away after seeing Maria?

I haven't done anything bad...

"Is it because I haven't had enough rest recently that I have developed nervous breakdown?"

The girl mumbled, her face looking a little confused.

But at this moment, her supervisor's best friend also came over quickly. Seeing that the girl was still confused, she sighed helplessly.

"Slacking off again?"

"Well..."

The girl smiled awkwardly.

But fortunately, her companion was not surprised by this. She just blinked and then took her hand reluctantly.

"Hurry up, everyone's been working like crazy. You know how important this event is... You can't slack off!"

"Good~"

The girl agreed casually and lifted her hair slightly, which made the supervisor's best friend frown when she saw it.

"Your hair...was it always like this?"

"what happened?"

"...Well, never mind. It's nothing. It's probably just an illusion."

The supervisor shook his head, thinking that he was overthinking.

But just as the two of them were walking quickly towards the work area.

Maria quietly walked out from the corner and watched them go away.

"Hai Si..."

Maria frowned and whispered.

……

The banquet did not last long and was declared over.

Later, Helatia became busy due to work.

Maria was invited by Ulpian, and the two talked briefly about music before parting ways.

Soon, the time came for the departure of the fourth mantle exploration.

It is worth mentioning that this time Maria did not join the team as an additional external staff member.

Some unknown method Heratia used to transform Maria from a person with no identity in Agor into a literary expert!

He was specially hired and a large sum of money was prepared for Maria.

It is said that Ulpian also contributed some strength...

But these are just some unimportant things.

Another two weeks passed, and soon the fleet arrived at the ruins of the former civilization.

There was not much difference between here and when they left. The only difference was that the lights in the entire ruins of the former civilization, which had originally been flickering half-dead, were now brighter.

They flow and flicker, like bait to attract prey, becoming more and more alluring.

Maria stood in the aisle of the submarine...looking out the window silently.

Perhaps because this time the responsibility is so heavy, the configurations of the three ships have been upgraded more than double.

Everyone has their own exclusive space and bedroom, and there is even a lot of space used as an entertainment room and for other purposes.

At this moment, Maria was standing by the transparent glass corridor, silently watching the deep sea.

This is ten thousand meters deep in the ocean... a world where even light is not allowed to enter.

But even in such a terrible place, there is still life.

In a trance, the school of fish in the distance swayed.

But at the very end of the school, there was one fish whose color seemed slightly different...

Maria frowned.

But before she could take a closer look, the sound of footsteps behind her caught her attention.

Maria turned slightly to look back.
