Chapter 149: Sunglasses, gloves, and a black dress, remember, I'm a cool girl!

October 10, 4243 of the Heral Calendar, 1:30 PM.

Inside the Frost Bank of Frostfall City.

"Don't move around!"

In front of the vanity, Brenna held her right hand together in a knife-hand shape and lightly chopped down on the top of Yun Mu's head as she spoke.

"Ouch!" Yun Mu feigned a look of great pain.

"Too exaggerated, I didn't even use any force," Brenna said, looking at her expression.

"I, I bit my tongue, is that not allowed?" Yun Mu defended herself stubbornly.

"Yes, yes." Brenna helplessly pinned up Yun Mu's bangs and took out various tools needed for makeup from the vanity cabinet.

"Then to avoid biting your tongue again, you had better behave yourself," she said.

"Oh."

Responding softly, Yun Mu looked at herself in the mirror with some curiosity.

"I didn't expect that you, Brenna, would know how to apply makeup for others," she exclaimed with some surprise.

"There are many things you didn't expect." Brenna took out a makeup brush and began to apply it to Yun Mu's face.

"This actually isn't difficult; noble women of the Kingdom basically all know how to apply makeup. After all, when attending various events, there will always be times when one needs to touch up."

"Sniff, sniff."

The soft brush moved across her face, and for some reason, Yun Mu suddenly had an urge to sneeze.

But since Brenna had told her not to move around, she could only suppress this feeling and urged, "Can you hurry up?"

"Can't hurry," Brenna replied without hesitation.

"But I feel like I can't hold it in anymore..."

"What can't you hold in?"

Before Brenna could finish speaking, Yun Mu suddenly opened her mouth wide.

"Ah—"

"Wait, turn your head quickly!" Seeing her action, Brenna realized something and said hurriedly.

However, it was already too late.

Before her words were finished, Yun Mu let out the sneeze.

"Achoo!"

"Cough, cough."

A large amount of dust flew up from the vanity, and the scent of the cosmetics became increasingly pervasive.

Yun Mu only felt a sensation of goosebumps rising all over her body, and the hair on her body immediately stood on end.

"Meow!" She let out a sharp cat cry.

"So it was the influence of the Cat Path?" Brenna instantly understood the cause of the matter.

She pulled Yun Mu out of the room and then summoned the only female among the four current Shadow Guards.

"Ai Yi, help me clean up," she said, looking at Ai Yi who had appeared before her.

"Yes." Ai Yi nodded in agreement, her figure immediately turning into a shadow and appearing in the room.

Without using any tools, she just gave a casual wave, and the dust that had been scattered all over the floor disappeared completely.

Ai Yi gently raised her right hand, and accompanied by a squirming of Shadow, the piled-up dust soon appeared in her palm.

"This should do." With a thought, Ai Yi wrapped the dust back up with Shadow.

"Thank you for your hard work." At this moment, Brenna pushed open the door again and said.

"Princess." Ai Yi greeted her.

"Mm."

Brenna nodded, then looked at Yun Mu and said, "Let's try again. This time I will choose scents that aren't as irritating."

"Fine, whatever." Yun Mu agreed reluctantly.

She sat back down in front of the vanity mirror and looked quietly at her own reflection.

After admiring her own magnificent beauty in the mirror for a while, Yun Mu asked Brenna, "By the way, what do you plan to do about my eyes?"

They had been fussing here for a long time, not to make her look better, but for a disguise.

That's right, a disguise.

After all, Yun Mu was still being hunted, and the possibility of being recognized if she went out without makeup was very high.

But this world didn't have colored contact lenses, and her pair of heterochromatic pupils were still very conspicuous. Although the photo on her wanted poster was black and white.

But the people hunting her weren't idiots; they would definitely write down her features in text!

Such a conspicuous feature as heterochromatic eyes would be even more emphasized, bolded, and circled with a pen.

Plus, because everyone in this world could read the national language, as long as she went out with these heterochromatic eyes, she would definitely be recognized.

"This Princess has already thought of a countermeasure, so you can rest assured." Brenna took out another set of cosmetics and said.

"Sniff, sniff."

Yun Mu smelled the scent, and after feeling that there was indeed no problem this time, she asked, "What method?"

"You'll know in a moment," Brenna said, keeping her in suspense.

"Childish." Yun Mu thought silently, speechless.

"Ta-da, it's finished!"

About half an hour later, Brenna put away all the tools and said.

"Is this me?" Yun Mu looked at the person in the mirror and felt it was truly incredible.

Her originally soft facial lines had become much more resilient under Brenna's makeup.

Her originally slightly short eyebrows were elongated and curved downward, giving the impression that she was constantly frowning.

It was as if this person was very difficult to get along with, always exuding an aura that warned strangers to keep their distance.

"Try putting this on and see?" Brenna said, producing a pair of sunglasses from somewhere.

"This is the method you were talking about?" Looking at the sunglasses handed over by the other party, Yun Mu's mouth twitched slightly.

"Of course," Brenna replied righteously.

"Fine, this is indeed a method, in its own way."

Yun Mu took the sunglasses and put them on over her eyes.

"Very good." Brenna looked at Yun Mu in the mirror, feeling very satisfied.

"Look over here!" She trotted behind Yun Mu and said.

"Hm?"

Hearing her words, Yun Mu instinctively turned around to look behind her.

"Click!"

The sound of the shutter pressing down rang out, accompanied by a flash of white light, and Brenna lowered the camera in her hands.

"Why did you suddenly think of taking a picture?" Looking at the camera in Brenna's hands, Yun Mu asked with some confusion.

"Does taking a picture need a reason?" Hanging the camera at her waist, Brenna thought for a moment, then said: "Only after losing something do people learn to cherish it."

"I just feel that I should record these things."

"."

After a brief silence, Yun Mu smiled and said: "Then let's take another one."

"You come with me," she said.

Fifteen minutes later, in front of the street outside the Frost Bank.

Yun Mu and Brenna hailed a Steam Taxi.

"Driver, to Liuli Street."

Wearing the sunglasses, dressed in a full set of men's slim-fit formal wear with a Rift Crocodile Coat over it, and wearing black leather gloves and a men's watch on her hands, Yun Mu climbed into the car and said.

"Alrighty," the driver replied, then he glanced at Yun Mu with some curiosity and said:

"This young lady is dressed very handsomely."

"Ahem..." Yun Mu did not speak, but Brenna gave a light cough and said: "She is my personal bodyguard; her attire naturally needs to be appropriate."

"Bodyguard?" Hearing Brenna's words, the driver raised his eyebrows.

"That is truly remarkable," he exclaimed with great sincerity.

PS: Because the form the Lady of the Dark Night reveals to the world is female.

Therefore, in the Frost Kingdom, very few people discriminate against women.

Ah, of course, there is none against men either.

There should be no "punching" (social activism/gender conflict) plots in this book.
