Hello, Ms. Funina

Alechino also considered a lot before choosing diplomatic means to enter Fontaine.

First of all, the mess left by the assessment of [House of Hearth] more than a year ago and the news that she killed Kugavina in Fontaine a few months ago must have irritated the nerves of the Fontaine officials.

Alechino speculated that Fontaine would definitely deploy a large number of manpower on the border defense line in the near future.

As a land and sea country, Fontaine only has a few ports that can easily enter Fontaine. Once Fontaine strengthens the customs of the port, it will be very difficult for Alechino to sneak into Fontaine.

Moreover, sneaking into Fontaine is to throw oneself into the enemy's interior, surrounded by enemies, and isolated and helpless. It is normal.

Entering Fontaine through diplomatic means is not only legitimate, but also does not have to worry about the Fontaine officials' means in the open. Alechino only needs to consider whether the Fontaine officials will plot against her in secret.

Of course, more importantly, the supreme ruler of Fontaine is the God of Water, and she is the Ice Queen who represents the winter when she is sent to Fontaine as a diplomat. Using the gods as a shield, Alecino believes that the God of Water in Fontaine will not embarrass her.

After all, the gods are colleagues.

And maybe, Alecino will have the honor to meet the God of Water in Fontaine.

The full moon is high in the sky. After Alecino confirms that the children are asleep, she steps on the snow in the yard of the Hearth House alone.

"Fontaine... I didn't expect that I would have to go back in the end."

The black and red eyes suddenly became sharp in an instant.

"Is that general officer testing me? Using the place where I grew up as an experimental field..."

Alecino could not be sure what the mysterious old man was planning. It was obvious that Alecino was inexperienced in dealing with this old monster that had lived for hundreds of years.

As the night deepened, Alecino's thoughts did not stop.

The next day.

An unexpected guest visited the Hearth House.

This person surprised Alecino. She thought that the other person would stay in the Solstice Palace and would not go out.

After all, the first time they met, this person leaned against the beam of the Solstice Palace, with his eyes closed as if he was sleeping.

And Alecino also inquired about some information about this person later. The people only knew that there was an executive who never went out among the Fatui, but they didn't know what this executive looked like.

Therefore, Alecino's first impression of her was that she was a stay-at-home girl living in the Solstice Palace.

But now, this person actually walked out of the Solstice Palace and came to the Hearth House in the suburbs of Solstice Grad.

A sleigh stopped at the door of the Hearth House. The snow deer pulling the sleigh were very tall and looked very majestic. Their hair was very thick and shiny, which seemed to have a certain protective effect against snow and water.

The leg muscles of the snow deer were very developed, and the fat layer on the abdomen was also very thick.

They were creatures born in extremely cold places. In order to survive, they had already evolved to adapt to the cold-resistant means of snow.

The door of the sleigh opened, and a girl with dark ginger-colored hair stepped out. She wore a mesh veil on her face and a six-winged headdress on the back of her head. She closed her eyes.

The third Fatui executive officer - [Girl] Columbia!

Columbia closed her eyes, but still turned her head to look around the Hearth House like a normal person.

She spoke softly, her voice ethereal.

"Is this the Hearth House? The scenery looks great."

"Yes, [Girl] Sir. We have arrived at the Hearth House headquarters."

The Frost Servant who followed Columbia said respectfully.

"So... Arlechino is here too?"

"Yes, [Servant] Sir is here. I will report it immediately."

The Frost Servant said, and was about to go to the gate to pass on the message.

However, a cold voice suddenly sounded beside them.

"No, I haven't started working yet."

Arecino walked slowly from behind them. She was wearing a warm cloak, a white robe with a fiery red pattern in the middle, black trousers, and black high heels with dark red and gold.

Hearing the voice, the Fatui around Columbia all turned back to look at Arecino. They were wary, worried that this madman who did [mother-killing] to get to the top would also do something to their superiors.

Although they knew that their superiors were strong, they were still wary of Arecino and didn't let her get close to Columbia.

Arecino took in the performance of these Fatui soldiers. This disgust and vigilance towards her had reached the level she expected.

It seems that the plan was successful.

Then, Arecino focused her attention on the third executive officer, who had only met once.

This looked very kind,The girl who seemed to be ignorant of everything made Arlecino feel threatened.

Arlecino's eyes condensed. She was no match for this [girl].

At least not at the moment.

Columbia and [Captain] Capitano were completely different.

If Capitano gave Arlecino the feeling of a towering mountain, then Columbia was a deep lake.

Although Columbia did not reveal the heavy and suffocating oppression of Capitano, she still stimulated Arlecino's alarm nerves.

This [girl] who was not very prominent could easily kill him.

It seemed that he did not realize the horror of the [girl] when they met last time.

Arlecino was very wary of Columbia. She did not understand the [girl], nor did she know the purpose of the [girl] coming here.

"What do you want to talk to me about? [Girl] Sir."

Arlecino asked solemnly.

"Well... you don't need to be hostile to me. We won't be hostile." Columbia felt the hostility and vigilance in Arlecino's heart, and she comforted her softly.

"Miss Arlecino, I can feel your heart. It is surprised, confused, angry, and afraid. Oh, and murderous... Sorry, I don't want to pry into your heart, but I can't control this power."

Columbia apologized and explained.

"Like you, I am an abandoned cursed person. I came to you because both of us like children. I want to see them."

"But the previous [servant] doesn't like children, so I don't want to contact her, even if she visits many times."

Columbia added that she could detect the changes in Arlecino's emotions and could immediately give an explanation based on this change.

"...Please come in, the children will like you. However, these people need to stay outside."

Arlecino was silent for a while. She hated Columbia's ability, and she didn't even want to be polite to Columbia.

This ability to read minds makes her irritated.

However, Alechino will soon come up with a solution.
