The dark red blood scabs were washed away bit by bit, revealing the dark silver-white color of the armor, and Beth finally showed a satisfied smile.

Just at this moment, light footsteps came to the door.

Beth was startled: "Who?"

"Hey, why is there a woman's voice?"

When Beth heard this doubtful voice, she felt relieved. It was Alice, the little girl.

"Brother Knight, Brother Knight, why is there a woman's voice in your room?"

Beth was shocked again. She was startled just now and accidentally revealed her original voice.

But fortunately, she was just a little girl, and no one would care about what a child said. I could just coax her and it would be over.

"Is that Alice? Why is there a woman's voice here? Alice must have heard it wrongly."

Alice didn't doubt Beth either. She just wanted the knight brother to hug her. After all, the knight brother's arms were so warm and made people feel particularly safe.

"Brother Knight, I can't sleep. I'm scared. I want you to hold me while I sleep."

Beth sighed. It was very sensible of a child who had just experienced the breakup of her family to not express fear until now.

However, the armor in front of her was not dry yet, and the lining of the armor had been soaked with potion. Now Beth only had a cloak to wear outside.

"Alice, Brother Knight is still treating his wounds, how about you go and sleep with your mother first?"

"Mom and Dad kicked me out. They don't want me anymore. Wow..."

Don’t cry, what if you attract people here?

"Don't cry, I'll be out soon."

Beth quickly checked the entire building for any activity, and found that Youlun and his wife were currently making a little man.

What kind of parent is this? Looking for some psychological comfort after being nervous?

Or is love serious and children an accident?

Beth tied her hair up, put on a wet cloak, hurried out of the bathroom, unlocked the door and pushed it open.

Alice was staring at the ground, and the moment the door opened, she saw Beth's feet.

"Brother Knight, your feet are so tender, even tenderer than Alice's feet."

Beth picked up the food from the side and made way for Alice.

Alice stretched out her hands and said with tears in her eyes:

"Brother Knight, give me a hug."

Beth picked Alice up and sat on the bed, placing the little girl on her lap.

"Brother Knight, your hands are so soft."

By the time she broke through to become a Saint, the calluses on Beth's hands had all faded away.

The hands now were genuine girl's hands, of course they were soft.

"How about Alice sleeping here tonight?"

After saying that, Beth had already injected the power of the saint into the little girl's body.

Alice only felt herself surrounded by a warmth, and her body began to sink down without her noticing. Her head began to feel dizzy, and she leaned on Beth's chest.

"Brother Knight, I'm so sleepy, your body is so soft..."

Finally, she fell asleep and Beth breathed a sigh of relief. Logically, Alice should have her own room.

But Beth had already left the living room when John was arranging the subsequent rooms. Now she had no choice but to put Alice in her own room.

"Ah, I wonder if Bennett's kid will be so noisy."

After tucking Alice in, Beth returned to the bathroom.

She rubbed the lining of the armor vigorously, and the blood clots on it gradually fell off. Beth picked up the lining and began to shake the clothes violently.

I learned this from Bennett. Bennett would swing the bed sheet wildly with the rune in his hand, and the bed sheet would be dry in no time. He can do anything.

After hanging the lining up, Beth washed the cloak again, shook it vigorously, and hung the cloak and the lining together by the window.

She opened the window, picked up a piece of pajamas from the closet, put them on, and lay down next to Alice.

I don’t know if John did it on purpose, but the room had good lighting, and the moonlight quietly flowed into the room, just illuminating Alice’s face.

The little girl's lips were slightly open, opening and closing with her breathing, and her playful little nose twitched from time to time, as if she smelled something delicious.

Beth's eyes gradually showed tenderness. She liked children, otherwise she would not have stayed with children every day in the Viscount's territory.

Although those children are sometimes very noisy, they are always cute at some point. Once they become cute, the previous resentment disappears without a trace.

"When Bennett's baby is born, I will definitely come over to take care of it for a few days."

Beth thought silently that the child might look very similar to Bennett and might become a rogue in the future.

We need to educate them from a young age to avoid becoming the next Bennett.

Beth couldn't help but scratch Alice's little nose, and the little nose began to twitch again.

Alice seemed to have sensed Beth as well. She turned over and leaned her little body towards Beth.

Beth's eyes were gentle as she held the child in her arms. She sniffed Alice's hair, which had a faint smell of sweat, but it was not unpleasant.

This is a taste unique to children.

As if feeling a little comforted, Beth held Alice in her arms and gradually fell into a deep sleep.

Alice has Beth's saintly powers, so she's not worried about Alice suddenly waking up.

Besides, Beth's sleep pattern was always very regular, and she would wake up before dawn.

Of course, except for being with Bennett, after all, it is too physically demanding.

the next day.

"Alice, Alice?"

Beth woke up suddenly. She opened her eyes and saw the wind blowing up the clothes near the window. The sunlight shone on the carpet in the room, and the room was already bright.

It's bad. Her biological clock has changed after being tormented by Bennett these past few days.

Beth quickly got up, put on the armor lining, boots and gloves, draped her cloak over her shoulders, wrapped her face with cloth, and then opened the door.

Youlun's wife was going upstairs and happened to see Beth hurriedly opening the door.

"My Lord Knight."

The woman ran to Beth's side and cried:

"Sir Knight, Alice is missing. No matter how I called out, she didn't come out. John and Youlun have gone out to look for her. Maybe she went back home by herself last night? What if..."

"Alice was at my place last night."

A hoarse voice sounded, and the woman was stunned for a moment. She looked at Beth, her face showing sadness and confusion, with a hint of fear and a hint of joy.

"Can I…can I see Alice?"

Beth made way, and the woman walked quietly into the room, just in time to see Alice's sleeping face and the carefully tucked-in quilt.

No wonder Mr. Knight cares so much about Alice...

This is good, with the protection of a knight, even if it is a Knight of Change, Alice's safety can be guaranteed.

The woman covered her mouth, tears rolling down her cheeks. She turned back to look at Beth and said:

"Mr. Knight, Alice is still young and doesn't know much. If you like, I can do that... No, I just hope that Mr. Knight can protect her..."

"Stop, stop, stop, what are you thinking about?!"

Beth quickly shouted at the woman to stop, saying that she was probably crazy.

"Alice was too nervous. I used magic to soothe her and nothing happened."
