"Kirly, she's in trouble, but what does that have to do with me?" said Networm, raising an eyebrow. Her reaction made Hela, who had come on purpose, look helpless, and although the Grave Girl didn't know what happened between Kiri and the mercenary, she could still easily identify that the two, or the networm, disliked each other very much. This is also something that can't be helped, after all, there are always thousands of reasons between people to dislike another person, and this is even easier when it comes to witches, if nothing else, the existence of witches alone will be disgusted by ordinary people. No one likes something that looks like them on the outside, but is a different creature on the inside.

Fortunately, although Hela didn't have much contact with ordinary people, she was keenly aware that the reason why the networm disliked Kiri was not a complete rejection of hard-to-change traits such as race or magic, but something more subtle. In simpler terms, the mercenary's feelings for Qili are one of jealousy. There were so many possible reasons for this jealousy, and given the Networm's attitude towards the other witches, including herself, Hela ruled out a lot of possibilities, leaving only one that she found rather incomprehensible, the man who called himself the tarantula.

It's an interesting thing, and if it weren't for the current situation, Hela would still be very curious. You know, in the process of growing up with witches, they will gradually realize that they are not a member of the human race, and they will not have a human gender concept. Especially for human males, at least witches can still feel close to human females in appearance, but for human males, in their eyes, they are not much different from animals such as cows and sheep. In such a situation, how could Kiri do something that would make the networm feel jealous? But then again, that's Kiri, even among witches who are known for their madness, she is one of the rare reckless people, and maybe this particular way of doing things will really make her have a relationship with human males...

Hela shook her head, suppressing these thoughts for now, now was not the time to think about them. The Grave Girl looked at the woman in front of her, judging from the appearance, the net worm has not changed yet, but in about half a month, various reactions of pregnancy will appear on the latter's body. And thinking of the fetus in the womb of the mercenary, Hela instinctively felt ashamed and uneasy, if she could, she really didn't want to disturb the life of the networm, if the current situation was not like this, she would even take the initiative to arrange for the ship to leave this place from the networm and tarantula. But there is no way, she has no other people to turn to when it comes to dealing with Qili, and this kind of thing is difficult to use whether it is Saihe, the mountain monster, or the information dealer.

Clenching her fists, Hela tried to speak in her usual tone, "Miss Networm, please think about it, if my guess is true, and it is most likely true, then you are not helping Qili, are you?" As far as I know, you and the tarantula are both from the blue lion, and Peg will ask for your help, indicating that you must have dealt with them when you were a blue lion. In that case, Kuira's death will also be yours. If that person is resurrected through Kiri's body, I don't think you can stay out of it, right?"

The mercenary stared at the witch in front of her, she didn't like this person, probably instinctively, Hela's feeling for the webworm reminded her of the upturned grave, the damp soil mixed with broken roots and white worms. But on the other hand, she also had to admit that Hela's attitude had been very friendly so far, even a little too friendly, and with the experience of the networm to people, she had not found any traces of hypocrisy in this friendliness. This is a person who can't be annoying as soon as he opens his mouth, and the networm defines Hela like this.

As for the fact that the witch came here to ask her for help, in fact, to be honest, even if the victim is not Qili, the networm does not want to help. She's not that sluggish, on the contrary, as a mercenary walking alone, the webworm is unusually sensitive to many things. So she already had a general understanding of her physical condition, and judging from Lothar's reaction to herself, she also realized that the Count of Montenegro didn't know which way, most likely from a witch, learned about her pregnancy.

In all fairness, the networm doesn't think that the child in her womb will have a good future, this is a matter of course, if she or Lothar die here, the child will probably have a hard time growing up. And even if they solve everything in Heartless Bay intact and return to the blue lion safely, the gap in identity is destined to not be so good. The mercenary knew very well that it was only a matter of time before Lothar was restored to the status of lord, and when all the affairs of the Grey Lion were settled, it might be a few years later, with the power and prestige of the Count of Montenegro, as long as someone knew that he was still alive, it would be a matter of course to restore his reputation. At that point, she and her children will be in a rather awkward position.

This is not to say that Lothar will abandon them, or even on the contrary, the networm can fully imagine Lothar insisting on becoming a countess despite everyone's opinions. As a mercenary, she knew too much how much energy those nobles had expended in order to prove how reasonable their innate power was. A woman from a non-aristocratic background, especially a woman from a lowly and vulgar profession like a mercenary, will undoubtedly cast a shadow on the purity of the Montenegrin bloodline and the legitimacy of the rule. It sounds romantic for a nobleman to marry a commoner, but in reality it is a disaster for both. What the nobleman needs to bear is the responsibility of the entire territory, and he must let himself have enough prestige and appeal, otherwise sooner or later it will lead to a tragic end. This could be the breached castle of the lord after a famine and the heads of all the blood relatives of the lord on the wooden poles, or it could be the accusations of some true or false prophet and the fall of other noble forces after a plague. The result of opening up and down is often intolerable.

Of course, this will not happen to Lothar, who has the credit for quelling the plague of the nezumi, and has strong allies like the Grey Mage and Marcus, but what about his next generation? Will he and Lothar's children still have the power and good fortune of his father? However, this does not mean that she does not want the child in her womb to be born, she is a mother, and Lothar's character is destined not to be an incompetent father. So, apart from the things that can't be changed, any trouble that threatens her and her children and their fathers has only one solution for the webworm, isn't it?

"Tell me about your plans, I hope to settle this before he returns. ”
