Find a Troubled Girl after leaving the Guild-Chapter 458 - 245: White Wolf’s Little Thoughts

"What’s up?" Li Ang walked over to the White Wolf.

She was holding Cormac the Mechanical Engineer’s notebook, standing coyly, as if too shy to speak and using the notebook to cover half her face.

Half of her elegant face was hidden, with layered, neatly-trimmed, soft white short hair and slightly drooping animal ears, while the long, curled white eyelashes made her gaze dreamy.

This unexpected side of her surprised Li Ang. It didn’t fit the image of a gang leader, ace racer, or even an assassin of an exiled tribe, but rather bore some resemblance to a literary young girl from school.

He felt his emotions betraying him for a moment.

Clearly, she was like a tomboy, so why did holding a book make her seem so cultured?

Hmm, it must be the skill of the Holy City hairstylist; her hair was cut so smoothly, much prettier than her previous messy white hair. That must be it.

"Master..."

The young girl’s originally hoarse voice spoke softly, making it sound like fruit on the tip of the heart. Combined with her insistence on maintaining the address, Li Ang had to take a few deep breaths to maintain composure.

"What do you want to say?"

Andasu seemed a bit startled by his slightly fluctuating tone, feeling he was upset, and bowed her head to apologize.

"No, no, I’m just... sigh, it’s not your problem, go on."

"After reading this notebook, I’ve gained some insight."

Li Ang nodded. It wasn’t surprising; she had self-educated in a place like the Flashing Field and obtained a real mechanical engineer’s notebook. Growth was expected.

"The ancient armor we found in the basement before, there are some components I want to dismantle and have a look."

She whispered cautiously and then added, "Its core is to become our flying airship’s power furnace. I won’t damage it, I promise."

"Alright, no need to be so reserved. For your development, it’s originally consumable," Li Ang said. "Even if the furnace has problems, replacements can be found. At worst, you can fix it."

Her requests were entirely reasonable.

"Mm." Andasu’s face showed a serene smile, her gaze divided by eyelashes didn’t directly fall on Li Ang, but seemed to secretly watch him from everywhere.

"But, I have one unreasonable request."

Li Ang was startled, worried she might suddenly push him down, and couldn’t help but glance around.

Andasu was stunned, quickly realizing what he was thinking. Her cheeks turned peach-colored, her big tail waving vigorously, and her long legs pressed tightly together.

"No, not that... But if the master wants, it can be anywhere."

"Not here, I mean, it shouldn’t be, never mind, what is it you want to say?"

"On the Flashing Field, I wanted to tell you, my emotions are no less than an elf, but it’s indeed presumptuous. In an environment like that, I think such matters are natural but neglected your feelings. I’m too bad. Someone like me, you can look down on as you wish, as long as I can have a corner beside you, even if it is—"

"Stop, stop, stop, stop!"

Seeing her say so much in one breath, Li Ang was a bit scared and overly stimulated. He quickly leaned in to check if Otto was still up in the tree.

Moreover, modestly lowering oneself might serve as spice, but overly looking down on oneself was pointless.

He gently gripped the shoulders of the slender White Wolf, intending to say something earnestly. But she closed her eyes, like a lamb awaiting slaughter.

"Open your eyes," Li Ang said, helplessly.

The young girl opened her eyes, and Li Ang looked directly into her elegant face, seriously saying, "I’m not questioning those things. Let’s stop this subject. I’m not looking down on you either."

He spoke carefully, trying to prevent her thoughts from straying.

"You are the helmsman I have in mind for the flying airship, and in our team battles, the frontline blade, sometimes even the crowd controller, all of which I acknowledge. You are the most dashing, the most beautiful when piloting the airship, so please don’t dwell on this slave stuff, okay?"

Andasu was stunned for a moment, her face slowly lighting up with some radiance,

"But, I don’t know how to establish my position in your heart."

She was still obsessing over some things with her peculiar logic.

"That requires time to prove, anyway I’m expressing my stance." Li Ang released her and stepped back two steps: "Alright, go on with the continuation of the initial topic."

"Okay, proving later." The young girl rubbed her legs against each other, tugging at the hem of her clothing, pursing her lips, seemingly thinking of something else, with implied meaning.

"I want to take a closer look at the ancient armor on this island."

The White Wolf gestured with her long, slender fingers: "If it’s truly the work of a magic guided technology pioneer, it should be comparable to the previous mechanical golem, to validate some issues."

Talking about the things she liked, Andasu forgot certain bad topics, her face full of brightness.

"For example, the structural adjustments in energy transmission at different scales, and energy guidance; clarifying these, I can try to manufacture a small mechanical golem in a miniature way using the materials selected before..."

She assumed Li Ang understood flying airship construction, thus also the mechanical engineer knowledge, but it was a misconception—Li Ang relied on a system cheat. So although he understood part of it, he couldn’t totally grasp what she was saying.

If he attempted to guide everyone in the group, many professional tiers would require consuming points, which was also a problem.

However, if she could begin to create small golems, it would be a good thing, greatly beneficial for both combat and production.

Mechanical golem, mechanical armor, robots, and metal humanoids can be considered the same kind of thing, just differing in applicability and context.
