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

Maria could feel how fragile and brittle the woman in her arms was, and she could also feel the steel branches growing within her body.

She was silent for a long time, and finally hugged the other person back.

After a moment, the two separated.

Lady Sicily took off the last necklace from her neck.

"This was... perhaps something my mother gave me. I wanted to give it to this child, but she probably doesn't need it now."

Putting the necklace in Maria's hand, Lady Sicily was silent for a long time and didn't say another word.

She had already said everything she wanted to express, and there was no point in continuing to be pretentious.

She just nodded to Maria one last time, turned around, and walked down the stairs step by step...

A slightly cold wind blew, and Maria reached out her hand, stroking the stone tablet without a name engraved on it, silently watching the receding figure.

Not a word.

【Comment: You have changed too many things. 】

Maria took a quick glance and frowned slightly.

"Umbilical cord fragments?"

As she spoke, she looked at the little girl in a maid uniform squatting in the corner with a broom in her arms.

She has been completely trained by the puppet to be a maid...

It's quite strange to say. I don't know what the purpose of the doll is, but it makes the other party look like a young Maria, and sees her childhood self dressed like this.

Well... never mind, as long as the doll is happy.

Compared to these, there is something else that attracts her attention more.

"This kind of reward...how did you get it?"

Maria asked while stroking the umbilical cord that looked like dry bark.

Xiao Baohan was hiding in the corner nervously.

"That... is what I collected..."

"collect?"

"Well... when you traveled through time, I was also investigating everything in that area, and then I collected some supplies and transferred them to you..." Xiao Baohan said, still a little scared. "These... are actually the umbilical cords formed from the bodies of those Wolf Lords."

"Wolf Lord?"

Maria was a little confused.

She lowered her head and looked at the umbilical cord in her hand again. After thinking for a moment, she turned her head to look at the doll.

"Then this shouldn't be our umbilical cord... Can it be used?"

"Yes... Although it's not the same medium, the effect is the same."

The puppet simply stretched out its hand, and after a simple touch, it gave its own answer.

"Then I'll leave it to you, puppet."

Maria simply glanced at it briefly and ignored it. She handed the umbilical cord to the doll and left quietly.

His emotional stability is a bit scary.

Xiao Baohan, who was standing aside, stretched his neck in disbelief and looked around.

After confirming that Maria was really gone, she was also a little surprised...

"It's just a habit."

Glancing at the little Baochan who was looking around, the puppet immediately guessed what the other party was confused about.

"You think that a hunter would be very angry if something like this happened to him...right?"

"But she's more used to this kind of thing than you think..."

"Habit?" Xiao Baohan was still a little confused.

How can I get used to this kind of thing?

But the puppet continued speaking as if it were a matter of course.

"There's nothing I can't get used to. If there is, I just haven't experienced it enough."

"Hunter is much kinder than you think. Because of this, she has experienced countless irreparable pains... Especially in Yharnam, she has to encounter and experience many things that have happened again and again, and finally watch what has happened continue to happen."

"You saw her brutality and madness after the death of that baby..."

"But that's just part of her."

"She will always be that... kind, awkward hunter who never says it out loud..."

The puppet murmured, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of its mouth.

Xiao Baohan on the side looked at this side with a confused look.

After watching the doll laugh, he also muttered.

"She's quite pretty... this woman."

……

Going back to reality.

Maria was still in Xingxiong's room at this time.

The surrounding layout did not change at all, and the time outside the window simply changed from night to day.

"So, at least one night has passed?"

Maria thought about it, stood up and looked out the window.

The environment outside is the same as always, the noisy modern city makes people not know where to look.

Maria took a few glances and then calmly withdrew her gaze.

But then, she heard a strange rustling whisper again.

Ok?

Maria frowned suddenly, and after a moment, she turned her head decisively and looked towards the door.

If she heard correctly... the sound seemed to come from the door?

Is something out there?!

Maria was slightly alert and quietly came to the door...

……

"No, no...Texas, that's too blunt, you can't say that!"

At the door, the girl in black slapped her face with both hands, once again denying the idea she had just conceived.

After closing her eyes and readjusting her mentality, she suddenly opened her eyes!

"Ms. Maria, how are you these days?"

She stretched out her hand and once again extended an invitation to the door panel in front of her, which did not respond.

But after a moment, she squatted on the ground with her hands covering her face.

How can you be the same as an idiot!

I've clearly seen him these past few days, how can you use "recently"?

And I don't usually talk like this...

Why is it so weird!

Texas was a little numb.

She had been doing invitation deduction here for half an hour, but couldn't find a suitable entry point.

To be honest, she almost wanted to give up.

Really...really can't do it anymore.

She really doesn’t dare to invite Ms. Maria!!!

Even though she acted so tough when facing Lappland, she had to be a little tougher when talking to Maria...

She couldn't even think about such a thing!

Texas covered his face with his hands, squatted on the ground, and his tail was listless.

Meanwhile, Maria walked out of the room silently, looking at the girl in front of her with confusion.

"What are you...doing?"

"Alas?!"

Dexas raised his head in shock and suddenly looked at Maria beside him.

After a moment of panic in her eyes, she spoke decisively.

"nothing!"

"Ok?"

Maria frowned slightly.

Maria didn't even need to think too much to see the problem with this level of lie.

There was also a hint of seriousness between his brows.

But it was such a simple change of face that made Texas' face almost turn green.

She almost forced herself to squat down and spoke tremblingly.

"Ms. Maria... have you eaten?"

Texas played a classic opening move.

Maria was silent.

Maria's expression became very subtle!

"..."

"..."

Texas only realized what strange words he had said after he had finished speaking.

She wished she could squat on the ground and find a crack in the ground to bury herself.

But what she never expected was that Maria spoke very seriously.

"not yet……"

"..."
