Chapter 436 -330 The sky is clear! The rain has stopped! I am ready to go!_1

“What does Sir Knight need from us?”

Once again in the Tactical Control Room, Ann asked in a low voice, Greiya shook her head, and everyone else looked puzzled.

“Don’t tell me, the Tribunal is planning to attack the aliens again…”

Sherry’s expression was very complex. On the one hand, the previous actions of the Tribunal had indeed left Sherry in doubt. But on the other hand, as a scientist, Sherry did indeed know that human survival is built on sacrifices. After all, as a biomedical specialist, she had personally ended the lives of hundreds, if not thousands, of lab rats. Without such capability, she wouldn’t have achieved what she has now.

However, Sherry was still conflicted. After all, sentient beings that can speak should be different from animals. Although the Tribunal seemed to regard them as one and the same, ethically speaking… Well, stop thinking. The more she thought, the more Sherry felt should would explode.

From her perspective, this issue was indeed… Well, in her world, this would require gathering all the anthropologists and biologists in the world to discuss, perhaps even sociologists …

“Click!”

Just as Sherry was lost in her thoughts, the cabin door opened and Duanmu Huai strode in looking lively and spirited. With his expression full of pride, the girls were somewhat bemused. After all, Duanmu Huai had always been very composed in their eyes, this was the first time they had seen him like this.

Duanmu Huai walked straight into the Tactical Control Room, made a circle in front of everyone, then turned around and walked another circle like a runway model.

“???”

Watching Duanmu Huai’s antics, everyone looked stupefied. In the end, it was Ann who first voiced her confusion.

“Sir Knight, what are you doing?”

“Have any of you noticed any differences in me compared to before?”

As Duanmu Huai spoke, he looked at them again. This time, upon Duanmu Huai’s prompting, the girls narrowed their eyes and carefully scrutinised Duanmu Huai. They carefully scanned Duanmu Huai from head to toe, glanced at each other, and shook their heads.

Much to everyone’s surprise, Lorena suddenly brightened upon seeing Duanmu Huai’s head.

“Ah, has Sir Knight grown hair?”

“………”

This was an unnecessary attempt at consolation.

Listening to Lorena’s concerned answer, Duanmu Huai was left speechless.

You women always complain that men don’t notice the slightest changes in you, yet now my Charm has increased by +1, and you can’t recognize it?

Nevermind, I’ll just call out directly.

“Ogis, you say.”

Duanmu Huai looked towards Ogis. After all, his own puppet had been with him for so long, she must have noticed her master’s changes.

Upon hearing Duanmu Huai’s inquiry, Ogis looked at him and paused for a moment.

“Master is as usual, nothing changed, as impressive as ever.”

“………”

Oh well, maybe being together so long makes it hard to notice a change. Just like when visiting relatives during the holidays, people would say “this child has grown so big” at a glance, but those who live with the child would completely fail to notice. Yes, this can be understood.

Let’s try someone who doesn’t see me too often.

“Sherry, what do you think?”

“Huh?”

Hearing Duanmu Huai’s question, Sherry was taken aback. She put aside her thoughts on what classification the Yamei people belonged to and hesitatingly stared at Duanmu Huai for a moment before speaking.

“…Has your skin gotten whiter?”

“…………”

That is really a woman’s perspective.

“Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah! I’ve figured it out!”

At this moment Ann seemed to have discovered something, and she excitedly raised her hand and pointed, and Duanmu Huai immediately looked at Ann.

“Oh? You’ve figured it out?”

“Yes!”

Ann nodded forcefully.

“I’ve noticed that Sir Knight used to seem very fierce and scary, but after looking at him for a while now I’ve found him quite good-looking. Remember… remember what’s that called? Miss Felin?”

As she spoke, Ann looked at Felin, who silently glanced at Duanmu Huai, then answered.

“Ugly and cute.”

“Yes, yes, yes, ugly and cute!”

“……………”

Duanmu Huai almost died right on the spot.

Adding Charm obviously isn’t like plastic surgery, where Duanmu Huai’s face would change with an increase in Charm. Though Ann’s explanation was a bit misleading, it wasn’t wrong either ─ it’s more about a change in temperament.

For instance, some people may not be particularly eye-catching, but their appeal comes from their unique presence. That’s how Charm works now.

In fact, Duanmu Huai had seen similar characters in the game before. One streamer had his character’s face looking as crater-filled as the moon, then piled on the Charm points. As a result, even NPCs praised his looks… He even made a series of live videos about it, and his audience would burst into laughter whenever they saw his moon-crater face.

And when the NPC princess seriously complimented this horse-adorned face with “Such a handsome and captivating knight like you…”, the audience would laugh even harder.

But despite all this, there were still benefits to it.

In plain terms, Duanmu Huai’s face used to be able to scare kids unconscious, now it just scares them enough to cry… Well, it’s an improvement nonetheless.

Meanwhile, Duanmu Huai was also setting his resolve.

This Divine Occupation task will be done in the future, no matter how hard it is! After all, it’s his only chance at saving his looks!

However, the trouble lay in… how did one trigger this special divine occupation task? Duanmu Huai had no clues.

Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.

If it were a professional task, Duanmu Huai would have lots of information and intelligence to use. But even though Divine Occupations belong to the same category as professions on the system interface, no player had ever had one in the game. Therefore, how to trigger the God of Destruction’s divine occupation boost was a problem for Duanmu Huai.

Regardless, it’s not too late to think about it later. For now, he could happily enjoy his increase in Charm.

Duanmu Huai, of course, did not tell anyone about his Charm +1. But he did find an excuse to bring the girls to Venus Island for an outdoor barbecue to celebrate.

Needless to say, with its clear mountains and waters, Venus Island was definitely a great place for a vacation. Honoka and Maryrose managed it well, and everyone had a great time.

For instance, right now…

“Hey!”

“Ah───!”

Lying on the beach, listening to the pleasant cheers of the girls, looking at the beautiful scenery, eating kebabs, and drinking beer, Duanmu Huai was quite complacent.

In front of him, four girls were jumping around, playing…beach volleyball.

Yes, beach volleyball.

Venus Island is rich in entertainment, diverse in options, but Duanmu Huai only had a few people with him and didn’t plan on running around everywhere. So they simply started playing on the beach. Ogis was building sandcastles, and after hearing from Maryrose, Ann pulled along Greiya, Lorena, and Audrey to play beach volleyball.

Of course, Duanmu Huai suspected Ann chose this primarily to avoid revealing that she can’t swim.

Right now, Maryrose was acting as their referee, while Honoka, not far away, was grilling food. Even Felin, who usually stays at home and never goes out, was now comfortably lying on a floating bed and enjoying life.

Ah… If only the world could always be this peaceful…

Thinking this, Duanmu Huai stretched lazily.

However, just as he was planning on having a good sleep, a rumbling sound came from afar.

“Hmm? What’s going on?”

Duanmu Huai frowned, opened his eyes, and saw a speedboat speeding towards them on the sea. At this moment, everyone else also noticed this scene and stopped what they were doing to look curiously in that direction.

“What’s going on?”

Duanmu Huai stood up, watching the approaching speedboat. If he remembered correctly, Venus Island and its surrounding waters were his private property, not to be entered without permission. What was happening? Were they after him?

“Hooooo!!!”

Just as Duanmu Huai was contemplating the situation, the speedboat rushed onto the beach. It slid across the sand, then made a swift turn, coming to a stop right in front of Duanmu Huai. Then, Duanmu Huai saw a silver-haired, twin-tailed girl sitting on it, wearing a school swimsuit with the word “Yue Hua” written boldly across her chest.

Then, the girl turned her head to look at Duanmu Huai. Expressionless as always, she uttered a few simple words:

“I’m back.”

Back? This place is not your home, where are you ‘back’ to?

At this time, Ann and the others came running over, curious about the girl.

“Sir Knight, who is she?”

Ann looked at the girl curiously and asked. They had already greeted Honoka and Maryrose, and learned about their stories from Lorena, so they weren’t strange to them. But nobody knew this girl. And the grand entrance she made added to the curiosity and confusion of the girls.

Facing Ann’s question, the girl raised her eyebrow slightly. Then, she looked at the crowd and said:

“My name is Yue Huasha. I am his wife.”

“……………”

After hearing the girl’s response, there was a moment of silence. Then…

“Hey, hey, hey, hey!!!”

And the next moment, a shriek echoed across Venus Island.
