Chapter 3: Mobius's Acting and Utilization

After confirming that Maria had not left her workshop today, Mobius changed out of the somewhat thin clothes designed by Eden that she wore after becoming smaller and planned to go out.

Although the Serpent still liked this set of clothes, this time she was going to test it, and it was not convenient to walk outside with this dress. It looked a bit out of place and even strange.

Sakura had changed out of her clothes long before for the same reason—it was too conspicuous and prevented her from blending in for information gathering.

You know, the weather is not warm now, and normal people don't wear short sleeves and shorts...

The rate of turning heads can be said to be very high.

...

After leaving the hotel, Mobius wearing heavier clothes observed the brightly lit city at night while heading to her destination.

This was the first time she walked out of the room and saw the city with her own eyes since she came to Kawalerielki.

However, despite looking at it, Mobius was not very interested in this place.

In her opinion, this was just a ridiculous city that was seriously corrupted by capitalism.

No matter how bright and beautiful the surface was, it was still dirty inside...

Other people might not know the darkness of this city, but Mobius knew it very clearly—not only because she learned about it through the game but also because she witnessed it through Sakura's eyes.

After watching for a while, she retracted her gaze and concentrated on her journey. After all, she still remembered the purpose of her outing very clearly.

...

"..."

Upon seeing her destination, the workshop that Maria often visited, Mobius stopped and waited patiently. Snakes are always very patient with their prey.

"Heh~"

As time passed, after Mobius noticed movement in the workshop, she smirked slightly, and a hint of mischief flashed in her gradient eyes.

"..."

The next moment, Mobius quickly put away her smile and the playfulness in her eyes, replacing it with a face full of panic and anxiety. Then she stumbled forward, with an expression on her face... just like a helpless child separated from her parents, evoking pity.

"Huh?"

Maria, who had just left the workshop, turned her head and saw a little girl who looked very anxious, as if she were separated from her family. She was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, she stepped forward.

Although Maria is not a knight now, she is from a knight family and is kind-hearted. When she meets someone who needs help, she will still lend a hand.

"Little sister, what's wrong with you?"

Maria stepped forward and stretched out her hand to stop little Mobius, who looked anxious and about to cry, and then asked softly.

"...Big sister, I'm lost. I don't know how to get back..." Hearing this, Mobius slowly raised her head and said to the blonde girl who stopped her with an anxious expression.

Mobius was not surprised at all that Maria stopped her because this was originally in her plan...

It can even be said that this time, she relied on the kindness of Maria, an immature little girl.

"Is that so... Little sister, you must not be a local. Are you here to watch the knight competition? Do you remember the name of the hotel you stayed in?"

After listening to Mobius's words, Maria observed the little girl in front of her for a while before continuing.

Maria didn't need to look at it more to know that Mobius was not a local.

The people of Kazimierz are mainly Kuranta, and the little girl in front of her had no Kuranta characteristics at all, making it difficult to discern her origin or race.

"Well, I came here with my sister..."

Facing Maria's question, Mobius nodded gently, and while admitting it, she also reported the name of the hotel. Then she looked at the person in front of her with her beautiful gradient eyes expectantly, the meaning clear.

"There... I'll take you back."

Hearing this, Maria hesitated for a moment, then looked around and found that it was indeed late and there were no people nearby. She then stretched out her hand to Mobius.

"Well~ Then I'll trouble you, big sister."

Looking at the hand stretched out in front of her, Mobius held it calmly, but a hint of success flashed in her eyes.

"Let's go."

Maria, who held Mobius's hand, didn't think much of it and led the way based on her memory.

"Okay~"

...

[Ding, Bianka, unlocking, currently unlocking progress 1%.]

"..."

Hearing the voice that suddenly came to her mind, Mobius squinted her eyes gently.

After letting herself be led by Maria for such a long distance, she finally heard the voice she wanted to hear. However, she was still a little surprised by the result.

Because no matter how she looked at it, Mobius felt that Margaret was more compatible with Bianka than Maria.

However, the result was already in front of her... She didn't care much about this small matter. Moreover, in a sense, it was a good thing that Maria could unlock her.

After all, at this time... Margaret had already been expelled from Kazimierz. If she really had to rely on her to unlock Bianka, Mobius wouldn't know where to find her for a while.

...

"Okay, we're here. Do you remember which room it is? I'll take you up." Standing at the door of the hotel, Maria turned her head and looked at Mobius and said.

"No need for that, big sister~ I can go up by myself."

"Can you?"

After hearing what Mobius said, Maria asked with some worry.

"Well, don't worry, big sister. Goodbye~"

As if to reassure Maria, Mobius turned and walked towards the hotel after reaching the separate room.

After turning around, in a place where Maria couldn't see, she suddenly restrained the expression on her face and showed a meaningful smile.

"Goodbye, little sister."

Maria watched Mobius's figure until she disappeared, then turned and left, walking towards home.

However, Maria obviously didn't notice at this moment that a green light was attached to her clothes...
