Madeline couldn't help but be overjoyed and exclaimed, "Mr. Robb, you've become stronger again?"
"Just a little bit," Robb replied modestly.
Madeleine said, "It's all thanks to your efforts as well. You destroyed one of the opponent's Thors Roars, and the armor you gave me also saved my life. You've contributed greatly in this battle, and you're sure to be promoted when we return this time."
The nearby Black Earth Knights were sweating profusely, thinking to themselves, [Robb did make some contribution in this battle, but it was just a small skirmish. It's unlikely that he'll be promoted from Viscount to Count for such a small contribution. Wake up, Commander. Your excessive flattery won't lead to a good outcome. Girls should be modest.]
Robb himself was also feeling a bit overwhelmed, so he quickly changed the subject. Pointing to the destroyed enemy camp on the other side of the lake, he said, "Although Mondra is a despicable person, he has many allies. The Church of Light is helping him, and the Desert Kingdom is providing him with weapons. We may encounter some strange things on the road ahead, so we need to widen the scouts' vigilance range."
Hearing him change the subject, Barry and the Black Earth Knights also breathed a sigh of relief. They couldn't let their Commander keep praising Robb like this. It was too scary. Change the subject!
Barry quickly said, "I'll have the Wind Knights Scouts spread out more and expand their detection range."
The Black Earth Knights also said, "Right, right! Our Black Earth Knights are responsible for the left flank scouts, and you're responsible for the right flank."
This was a typical case of not having anything to say, and everyone wanted to change the subject.
But this kind of topic was really awkward, and after a few words, they couldn't continue. Several Black Earth Knights had a headache.
At this point, Kante found a topic. He looked at the bottom of the lake and said seriously, "Hey, guys, this armor made of Arcanite is really powerful. It can even withstand the Thors Roar. Shouldn't we think of a way to make more?"
"What can we do?" a Black Earth Knight asked.
"Of course, we should dive down and find some ore," Kante said. "Just now, Robb dove in and picked up seventy-two pieces of ore in no time. Even if we don't have his luck, it shouldn't be a problem for us to pick up one or two pieces each. We can make do with what we have and see what we can do."
"Hey, that's a good idea!" the Black Earth Knights said. "We're camping by the lake all night anyway, so we have enough time to go down and look for some ore."
One Black Earth Knight turned to Robb and asked, "Robb, where did you pick up the ore in the lake? Can you point it out to us so we can pick up some too?"
Robb couldn't help but laugh and cry. He thought to himself[ "I used my mining skills from the game to find this treasure. You guys don't have mining skills, even if I told you to hold your breath and dive to the bottom of the lake, how would you mine? Can you even do underwater mining?]
However, Robb didn't think too much about it. He pointed to the center of the lake and said, "I found it there."
"Okay then, let's go try our luck," Kante was the first to rush to the lake, naked and bare, and with a splash, he jumped into the water. Then a large group of Black Earth Knights and Wind Knights followed, laughing and jumping into the water.
Robb knew they were destined to come up empty-handed, but he didn't expose their foolishness. He secretly sneaked into the woods, picked up a branch, rubbed it into a fishing rod where no one could see, and then came out of the woods and sat by the lake fishing silently.
Madeline sat tenderly beside him, fishing together with him.
In fact, she was not good at speaking. You could tell from the fact that she always blindly flattered Robb every time she spoke. Perhaps she felt that way too, so she reduced her speaking.
This made Robb a little sad, "Madeline."
"Hmm?"
"You don't have to deliberately try to make me happy and avoid making me angry," Robb said, "Even if it means changing yourself. I think it's really unnecessary."
"Oh?"
"Living out your own brilliance, showing your own personality, will make you even more lovely."
"Really?" Madeline exclaimed happily, "Can I do that?"
"Of course you can," Robb said, "I also hope that you can be more yourself."
Because Madeline had been running away since she was a child, she didn't really live the life of a lady. Most of the time, she grew up with the queen, crawling and struggling in difficulties, surrounded by a large group of gloomy necromancers and smelly Black Earth Knights.
The Black Earth Knights taught them how to fight (the queen didn't learn much), while the necromancers taught them magic (Madeline didn't learn much).
The two different learning directions also resulted in completely different personalities.
The queen, who majored in magic, was good at politics, had a more stable personality, and was rarely happy. She was moody.
But Madeline, who majored in combat, had a more generous personality, was very happy and sad, cried and laughed a lot, and was restless.
In front of Robb, she always pretended to be a well-behaved girl, which was quite tiring for her.
Now that she heard Robb say this, her mood relaxed a lot.
She jumped up and said, "That's great. Actually, when I saw you fishing, I wanted to fish too. I was just afraid you would say it's not good for a girl to play this."
"What's wrong with a girl fishing?" Robb laughed, "Come on, let's fish together. I'll make you a fishing rod."
He sneaked into the woods, rubbed a fishing rod quickly, and handed it to Madeline.
"Oh? You made a fishing rod so quickly?" Madeleine was surprised.
"It's not that difficult," Robb said. "Just hang a line on a stick."
"Well, that's true," Madeleine laughed. "I want to go fishing now."
She dug up a worm and put it on the hook, then she swung the fishing rod hard. The fish hook flew far away and sank into the lake. After a few seconds, she saw the float shaking violently. "Ah, I just caught something!"
"Wow, that's impressive!" Robb was happy. Madeleine didn't use any fishing skills, just the real fishing method, but she was lightning-fast. "Pull it up and see."
Madeleine pulled hard, and there was a loud splash in the lake. Kante's head popped out, screaming, "Who hooked me with a fish hook and pulled it up so hard? It's dangerous!"
Robb: "..."
Madeleine: "..."
Kante screamed, "Ah, my skin was torn off a big piece, and there's so much blood! Priest, I need a priest."
A group of people by the lake burst into laughter, and the camp was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
Madeleine couldn't help but burst into laughter, showing her usual demeanor. She was stunningly beautiful, and Robb sat next to her, looking at her beautiful profile and thinking, [Madeleine is even more beautiful this way!]
