Chapter 351: Bai Mo's New Clothes/Elysia's Way of Declaring Sovereignty
"Hmm!"
Standing in front of a floor-length mirror, Elysia, wearing pink dinosaur pajamas, watched Eden put makeup on Bai Mo.
The floor around them was covered with clothes that Bai Mo had just changed out of, most of which were pink. It was obvious that this Miss Elf had brought some personal items again.
Yes, the three of them were in Eden's courtyard at this time. Elysia had strongly requested to go there after the three of them finished their meal.
As for the reason, Elysia wanted to take a serious photo of the few of them. After all, she had been in Bai Mo's body before, so how could she pass up such an opportunity?
It was also a coincidence that the clothes Eden designed for Bai Mo had just been finished that morning, so Elysia didn’t want to miss this chance. She didn’t even change her clothes and took Bai Mo and Griseo to Eden.
“Hmm…”
She had put on the makeup and clothes, but she still felt something was wrong. Elysia patted her head.
“Yes!”
After some deep thinking, Elysia finally realized what was wrong. So, under Bai Mo’s gaze, she stretched out her hands to smooth out the silver hair on both sides of her head, then used her original power to dye the hair pink on both sides.
It is commonly known as highlighting!
“Sure enough, Lau is more perfect like this!”
Lau with her own color is more perfect! (Referring to claiming sovereignty!)
And the two highlights she chose were very particular. After all, when Bai Mo is bored or nervous, she will always subconsciously play with her hair using her index finger, and the hair between her ears is where she often touches. Elysia had noticed this and dyed that part of her hair.
As for the meaning of doing this… hehe… she can only say that those who understand will understand~
Don’t try to guess what the beautiful girl is thinking!
Elysia took two steps back, then nodded with great satisfaction.
After all, the Bai Mo standing in front of the mirror at this moment is the Bai Mo who was “reborn” after she dressed up carefully!
Common name! The white rabbit of Miss Pink Elf’s!
Top, skirt.
A black skirt and pants, paired with a white shirt and a black ink-colored jacket, holding a folding fan, quite quiet, as if there is a charm of ancient Shenzhou in it.
Especially the silver hair that reaches her waist, moving with the wind like flowing water, and on one side of the hair, there is a feather hair ornament, the deep red color extremely bright, echoing the silver and white, and it is very suitable for embellishment.
These are the clothes Eden made for Bai Mo, which took a long time.
Of course, this is a daily dress, not a combat dress like those possess by the Thirteen Flamechasers of Fire Moth. Of course, if Bai Mo wants, she can wear this dress for battle.
Because when Eden made this dress, the material used was the best, and the wear and tear caused by battle was almost zero.
Moreover, even if the dress was worn out, Bai Mo could use the power of reason to reconstruct it, which is very convenient.
Bai Mo herself was very satisfied with the dress that Eden made for her. She even let the two of them put makeup on her. After all, if it were a normal situation, she would not tolerate her face being painted with the so-called cosmetics.
“Sister Aslaug, very beautiful.”
At this time, Griseo, holding a lollipop in her mouth, also spoke.
“Look! Even little Griseo thinks so. Don’t you think so, my good Eden~♪”
As she said that, Elysia smiled and walked toward Eden, who had just approached, and then naturally hugged her arm.
“Hehe… After all, it’s your vision, Ellie, and no matter what Lau wears, it’s very suitable.”
Eden spoke the truth directly. Yes, Elysia also gave a lot of suggestions when designing this dress.
Although Eden only used a small part of them, after all, Elysia’s heart is well known to everyone~ When making clothes, it’s inevitable to incorporate some personal touches.
“Hehe, it turns out that the clothes made by Sister Eden are still beautiful! They are also very comfortable to wear!”
Touching Griseo’s little head, Bai Mo hurriedly looked at herself in the mirror.
There’s definitely nothing wrong with the clothes, and the makeup on her face is also perfect. After all, it was Eden who did it!
How could the vision of a great artist be wrong?
Anyway, Bai Mo doesn’t understand this aspect. After thinking about it, she can only describe it as beautiful or a national quintessence.
As for the fact that a bad woman dyed the hair between her ears with personal touches, Bai Mo doesn’t mind.
After all, how does the saying go? Love her! Then you should pamper her! Give her the best!
“By the way, Lau, when are you going to St. Freya Academy?”
At this time, Elysia suddenly asked.
She had heard about this from Eden. After all, the two of them only know how to stick together all day long, and Bai Mo had never had time to mention this matter.
“As for this… maybe the day after tomorrow. I’ll just book a ticket and fly there. Anyway, I am familiar with the Far East.”
Well! Relax and relive the scenery along the way!
How tiring it is to fly the aircraft by yourself~ and you have to adjust the route and so on, but she doesn’t want to move at all.
“Why? Do you want to go too, Elysia?”
Scratching her head, Bai Mo asked in return.
In fact, if possible, she would like to go alone, but if Elysia wants to accompany her, she will not refuse.
“Yeah! After all, Lau will stay there for a long time, so if possible, I don’t want to be separated from Lau for too long!”
Indeed, Elysia said this very seriously, not because she wanted to see other cute girls or something.
After all, the two are in a sweet period now, and it is normal not to want to be separated for too long.
“Well, then, Ellie, you can go with me.”
Bai Mo agreed happily, after all, if the two really separated for a period of time, she would really feel a little uncomfortable for a while.
Well! It's just a withdrawal reaction! This bad woman is really poisonous!
“Hehe, I knew that Lau, you are the best~♪”
Seeing this, Elysia turned around, threw herself into Bai Mo’s arms, and then said with a smile.
Chapter 352: Communication with Siegfried
Planning to go to St. Freya Academy in three days, Bai Mo’s mood was a bit complicated.
Showing off was one thing, but she couldn’t avoid being lectured by Himeko and Theresa.
But these were nothing compared to the trouble of explaining Kiana and Sirin in her body.
After all, explaining was troublesome!
The fortunate thing now was that Kiana’s personality was still lively and cheerful. Without Otto's intervention, no one had destroyed or controlled her life, and even Himeko had skipped the last lesson due to the queen’s arrival.
Everyone at St. Freya Academy was still going about their daily lives, and there had been no major changes.
So, in summary, regarding Kiana's life experience, Bai Mo had decided to let Siegfried handle it. After all, if Siegfried were there, Kiana might feel a little better after learning the truth.
Anyone who learned such a truth would definitely feel sad and upset, but there was nothing they could do about it—after all, Kiana would have to face these things sooner or later.
Fortunately, Kiana still had Mei, Bronya, Theresa, and Himeko by her side. She had always been living her own life, not the memories instilled in her. Bai Mo believed that Kiana would be able to overcome it soon, and of course, she would comfort her.
Then there was the issue of Himeko. Bai Mo planned to ask Mobius if she could perform a Meta-morph surgery on Himeko. If it was just a stigmata, Himeko’s excessive use of Honkai energy would still harm her body in the future, so Bai Mo decided to address the problem fundamentally.
Moreover, in all of St. Freya Academy, as a teacher, Himeko had taught some extraordinary students: three Herrschers, a MANTIS from the previous era who had lived for more than 50,000 years, and Theresa, another MANTIS.
Oh, and Bai Mo, a Herrscher of Finality, must also be counted.
So, when I woke up, I was actually the enemy of the whole class?
Only Himeko was an ordinary Valkyrie? Is that fair? No, it’s not fair!
So, becoming a MANTIS was the most suitable choice. There were still many ICHOR in the Elysian Realm, and there would always be one that suited her, so Bai Mo wasn’t too worried.
After all this time, she had to go back to St. Freya Academy. There were too many things to deal with.
Holding a glass of Eden's special juice, Bai Mo sat on the sofa, sighed, and then took out her mobile phone. She found her father-in-law, Siegfried, in the address book.
She decided to give him a heads-up so that he wouldn’t be caught off guard when he saw Kiana. Otherwise, Bai Mo didn’t mind giving him another arm.
She believed Kiana would be very happy too!
..............
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "Mr. Siegfried, are you free the day after tomorrow?"
After sending the message, Bai Mo looked at her ID and twitched her mouth. It looks like Elysia had changed all the app IDs on her phone to this one.
[Siegfried]: "Miss Bai, is there something you need the day after tomorrow? Sorry, I’m on a business trip and can’t return to the Far East for now."
Siegfried replied quickly. After all, due to the special relationship between Bai Mo and Kiana, Siegfried was always concerned about Kiana. Sometimes, to get information about her, he would ask Bai Mo.
(In fact, Gray Serpent was in charge of this.)
A business trip? What kind of business trip could he possibly be on? He was probably eating and drinking in Anti-Entropy, causing trouble for Einstein and Tesla.
Bai Mo made a disgusted expression but then decided to tease Siegfried using his own words.
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "Oh? Really? It seems like Mr. Siegfried doesn’t want to see Kiana, right?"
[Siegfried]: "...Miss Bai, you should know that I’m not in a good condition to see Kiana right now."
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "Are you afraid that Sirin’s consciousness in Kiana will react when she sees you?"
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "I seem to have forgotten to tell you this: when Kiana and I separated last time in Singapore, I sealed Sirin’s consciousness with the power of the Herrscher of Sentience."
Me!!! Why didn’t you tell me such an important thing earlier?
On the other end of the phone, Siegfried nearly threw his phone after seeing Bai Mo's message.
If he had known this earlier, would he have needed to hide from Kiana like this?
[Siegfried]: "Miss Bai, does this mean you plan to meet Kiana in three days? In that case, your identity... Otto will also be aware of it."
After the initial impulse, Siegfried calmed down. After all, excluding the bomb factor of Sirin, there was still Otto.
So if he appeared rashly beside Kiana, it might cause some trouble in her life.
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "You don’t have to worry about that. I’ll go alone. Mr. Siegfried, you should stay in Anti-Entropy. When I meet Kiana, I’ll definitely say a few words to you!"
"Lau, why are you laughing so happily? Are you chatting with other girls? Let me see, let me see!"
The smile here referred to a smirk. After realizing that Bai Mo was doing something, Elysia hurriedly came up.
Bad Lau! Miss Elf is not annoying!
Helplessly, Bai Mo had to delete the chat history and then explained: "No, I’m just making arrangements to return to St. Freya Academy the day after tomorrow because there are many things to deal with. Also, Siegfried is Kiana’s father."
"Why? Ellie, are you afraid I’ll be taken away by someone else? Are you jealous?"
Bai Mo smiled evilly, trying to turn the tables as she poked Elysia’s little face.
"Yeah~ That’s right, after all, Lau is so cute. I have to watch her carefully to avoid her being taken advantage of by some boys during this time!"
Elysia admitted it very readily, adding some strange remarks.
Bai Mo got goosebumps all over her body; after all, boys and the like would never be her thing!
The truth was to be intimate with girls! Anyway, you see that Elysia doesn’t object to it, right?
Thinking of this, Bai Mo gave her a kiss.
"Okay, okay, Lau, you continue to be busy. I’ll help Eden dress up Griseo~"
Elysia smiled. Was this an unexpected gain?
Then she gave Bai Mo a return gift, jumped up from the sofa, and ran to Eden, clearly not wanting to delay Bai Mo’s work.
--------
Chapter 353: Plan to Save Private Kiana
[Siegfried]: "...but please don't do this."
The so-called nice words are just to deceive people. Siegfried would not be so foolish as to hand over his power of life and death.
If the other party secretly says a few bad things about this, Kiana will beat him up.
After all, in some senses, he is a very incompetent father.
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "In that case, please ask Mr. Siegfried to go to St. Freya Academy with me. After all, you don't want Kiana to miss you all the time, right?"
Fully immersing herself in the Far East, Bai Mo followed the local customs and said so.
[Siegfried]: "May I ask, what is the purpose of Miss Bai going to St. Freya's Academy and letting me meet Kiana?"
Siegfried was still very cautious. After all, he was far away in Anti-Entropy, and he didn’t know that the current Schicksal Headquarters had cooperated with the World Serpent, and Otto would no longer pay attention to Kiana. Otherwise, Bai Mo dared to guarantee that after receiving this news, Siegfried would definitely be the first person to meet Kiana.
To dispel Siegfried's doubts, Bai Mo directly explained the situation and stated that Otto would no longer pay any attention to Kiana in the future, so he could rest assured.
Of course, more specific negotiation matters were definitely not mentioned. To prove the truth of his words, Bai Mo immediately sent a telegram to Otto, requesting the cancellation of Siegfried's wanted order.
When Siegfried far away in Anti-Entropy saw that his wanted order had been canceled, he gradually began to believe Bai Mo’s statement.
Well... Although this matter is too magical and sudden, he believed that with Otto's personality, he would never do such a boring thing, so what Bai Mo said must be true.
After all, if Otto really wanted to cause trouble for Kiana, or wanted to capture him, it wouldn't be difficult, and there would be no need for such trouble.
[Siegfried]: "Then it's settled! Three days... No! Two days! I will definitely be in the Far East in two days!"
Unable to hide his joy, Siegfried immediately opened his mobile phone and booked the earliest flight to the Far East in two days.
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "Oh? Then you should be prepared, Mr. Siegfried. After all, I have a mission for you to go to St. Freya's Academy this time."
[Siegfried]: "What mission?"
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "This time, when I go to St. Freya, I will completely separate the consciousness of Sirin from Kiana's body, so that the two can live as different individuals. And you, Siegfried, should take this opportunity to explain her life experience to Kiana."
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "You should know that if she finds out the truth at this point, it will definitely be very painful. So, it is better to explain it to her now while we are all here. After all, Kiana is still very strong."
As long as Sirin's consciousness remains in Kiana's body, Kiana will sooner or later learn the truth from Sirin. It is like a time bomb, very unstable. What Bai Mo has to do is dismantle this time bomb, tell the truth, and completely eliminate this hidden danger.
Hmm... After all, these are all the messes left by Siegfried.
It seems that Siegfried truly believed that the real Kiana had died at that time. After all, falling from a height of several thousand meters, even a Valkyrie can't survive, let alone a child.
So, after this incident, Siegfried chose to take K-423 away and slowly recognized her over time, eventually allowing her to inherit the name "Kiana."
The idea of inheriting the name seems to have always been a tradition in their place, like a thought.
In short, Bai Mo knows only this much, and she didn’t deliberately search for information before crossing.
[Siegfried]: "...I understand. I will explain this to Kiana seriously."
Of course, no matter what he explains, Kiana will only be his child, and this will never change in Siegfried's mind.
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "Okay, Mr. Siegfried, just do this one thing well. As for the other Kiana... don't worry, the other Kiana won't care too much about these things. After all, Kiana is her sister, right?"
Well~ There are actually some mistakes in this sentence. After all, if you say you don't mind, it may be false. But after all, Durandal already has the name Bianka, which gives her everything, gives her a new life, and carries her past.
So, if you insist on letting Durandal inherit the name Kiana again, it would be disrespectful to her personally and to her life, even denial.
Durandal herself will not get used to it all of a sudden.
Besides, in the original plot, Durandal was very satisfied with Kiana. She believes that here, Durandal must be thinking the same thing.
It's just that Kiana is still the idiot who only thinks about eating and playing games all day long. So, if Durandal knows this after recovering her memory, she will definitely have to train and do some messy things.
Well! Three seconds of silence for the idiot Kiana, but you really don't need to say it, Bai Mo actually really wants to see this scene!
Got it! I'll find time to ask Dudu to see if she is willing to recover her lost memory and recognize a sister she has long wanted to recognize!
[Siegfried]: "Then... about the other Kiana, when can I meet her?"
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "This matter... I will go and talk to her in person if I have time. After all, Mr. Siegfried, you know that the other Kiana is now in a state of amnesia, so I still need to ask her opinion on this matter."
Touching her chin, Bai Mo thought about it again and again and said so.
Perhaps the next two days will be a good opportunity to go to the headquarters of Schicksal, ask Dudu for her opinion, and see if she can still take the Gem of Haste away.
Well! A sure-win business!
Anyway, Otto will definitely not mind!
---------
Chapter 354: Siegfried's Plan
[Siegfried]: "Thank you very much, Miss Bai."
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "It's okay, Mr. Siegfried. After all, I'm doing this for Kiana's sake."
Not just Kiana! There's also Cecilia!
As a happy father in this world, I think it's fine for you to give Kiana to me!
Although Bai Mo wanted to say this, she didn't dare to do so before Cecilia was truly resurrected. It would be bad if she were treated as a weird person.
[Siegfried]: "Kiana is lucky to have a friend like you, Miss Bai. As her father, I still need to express my gratitude to you."
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "Really? If I ask Mr. Siegfried for anything in the future, please don't refuse, okay?"
[Siegfried]: "Of course, as long as it doesn't touch my bottom line, I will do my best to help you, Miss Bai."
Okay! Screenshot and save!
When the time comes, I'll make a marriage certificate and slap it on Siegfried's face. If he dares to disagree, I'll take out this screenshot!
Bai Mo smiled evilly. She was very happy to get this unexpected surprise.
After discussing the meeting place and time with Siegfried for a while, she exited the chat interface and went to book a plane ticket.
After all, she still wanted to go to the Schicksal Headquarters with Elysia in the next two days.
If she's lucky, as long as Durandal agrees to recover her memory, she can also take her to St. Freya Academy. That way, the father and daughter can meet, and Kiana can have another sister. This would be a good thing for Kiana.
Of course, since Kiana has no memory before the age of eight, Bai Mo doesn't mind helping her recover it.
When the sisters recognize each other and the father and daughter reunite, the scene will be too beautiful to think about!
Lying flat on the sofa, Bai Mo held up her phone and smiled, but the next second, just as she was about to pay, a touch of pink suddenly appeared in her field of vision.
Elysia lowered her head and stared at her eyes with a smile.
"What's wrong, Lau? You seem so happy. Are you done with your work~♪"
"Almost. I'm booking a flight for tomorrow."
Sitting up straight, Bai Mo made some space and motioned for Elysia to sit down.
"Hey? Aren't we going to St. Freya Academy in three days?"
The faint scent of jasmine was refreshing. Elysia rested her head on Bai Mo's thigh and closed her eyes comfortably.
"No, I'm going to Schicksal, where I have something to do! Ellie, accompany me!"
Seeing that this bad woman took advantage of her again, Bai Mo rubbed her long pink hair unhappily.
"Well~ okay, after all, it was Lau's invitation~♪"
.......................................................
At the same time, on the other side, in a hotel in a small town in Europe, Siegfried did not lie before; he was indeed carrying out the mission. But now, the mission was complete, and he had already booked a flight to the Far East.
He was going to fly there after saying goodbye to Welt.
After all, this matter was of great importance, and Siegfried would never allow any mistakes, because the feeling of an old father wanting to see his daughter is something others can never understand.
Even, Siegfried had already prepared to be beaten up by Kiana when they met.
Pain and happiness—maybe this was his current mood.
Of course, he had to thank Bai Mo for all of this. After all, if it weren't for her, maybe Siegfried would still be living a life of hiding.
A Judgement of Shamash can be exchanged for arm at the same time, find the whereabouts of his other daughter, and perfectly solve the hidden dangers of his daughter in the future. This is simply a huge profit!
Not to mention anything else, just based on these three points, he could wake up with a smile in his dreams!
Walking into the living room, Siegfried sat on the sofa, made himself a cup of instant coffee, then dialed Welt's number.
Beep... beep... beep.
Soon, the call was connected, but the person who answered was not Welt, but Einstein.
Still with her messy blue shoulder-length hair, Einstein was biting a piece of chocolate and said vaguely, "Long time no see, Siegfried."
"Long time no see, Dr. Einstein."
With a long-lost smile on his face, Siegfried stretched out his hand to greet her.
"And where is Welt? I heard he should be back?"
After waiting for a long time without seeing Welt appear, Siegfried asked in confusion.
If you calculate the time, he hasn't met with several people for a long time, so Siegfried knows very little about the recent developments of Anti-Entropy.
"He and Tesla have something to do and went out first. But Siegfried, what are you going to do with your contact this time?"
Einstein didn't mean anything else; she just wanted to ask, after all, they were old acquaintances, so they wouldn't suspect anything.
Besides that, she also noticed that Siegfried have changed a lot now. At least his personality was much more cheerful than before.
"Nothing, I'm going to the Far East in the next two days, so I wanted to tell him first."
Without hiding anything, Siegfried told her his plan openly.
"Go to the Far East? You can make your own decision on this matter."
Einstein didn't understand. After all, it didn't matter whether he told Welt about this little thing or not. She knew what this man was thinking about—he just wanted to see his daughter from a distance, and he had done this before.
"No, I think you must have misunderstood me, Einstein."
Under Einstein's puzzled eyes, Siegfried shook his head.
"Misunderstanding? Do you want to contact her directly?"
Einstein understood something in an instant but did not say much. After all, she believed that since this man could say such a thing, it must have been a decision he made after careful consideration.
In addition, the people in the Kaslana family are stubborn. As an outsider, she can't persuade them about this kind of family affair.
"Yes, I went to Saint Freya this time for Kiana's matter. I think it's time for me to face it all."
-------
Chapter 355: Siegfried - Miss Bai is a very nice person.
In the Anti-Entropy headquarters, Einstein looked at Siegfried's serious face and tone, then nodded silently before speaking. "So, do you need our help?"
Given the current situation, Anti-Entropy and St. Freya Academy have formed an alliance. As an ally, Einstein can offer some convenience to Siegfried in this regard.
She believes that, for this request, Theresa will not only not refuse, but will actually be happy to assist.
However, it could become troublesome if Siegfried triggers the awakening of the Herrscher of the Void after meeting Kiana—it would certainly be a headache.
When considering any situation, it's always best to prepare for the worst. If a direct confrontation with the Herrscher of the Void becomes necessary, to be honest, Anti-Entropy has little combat power. It would have to rely on St. Freya.
With Theresa, combined with Oath of Judah, it would be possible to guarantee a level of safety. After all, since Welt inherited the core of the Herrscher of Reason, he can no longer fight at a high intensity. On the other hand, the young girl who just inherited the core of the Herrscher of Reason, Bronya, is very compatible with the gem, but her overall combat power is still somewhat low, and she will need time to master most of its power.
It’s also worth mentioning that Mei, who is the Herrscher of Thunder, is currently training with Bronya. Given Mei's personality, she would never allow her friend to bear the burden alone. Therefore, she has decided to grow stronger quickly, which is why she proposed this to Welt.
As for Kiana, Theresa, Himeko, and Fu Hua are leading the training, especially in theoretical knowledge. Kiana has to take exams nearly every two or three days, which causes her a great deal of distress and makes it hard for her to sleep at night.
"You don't really need help. I can still handle this matter," Siegfried smiled and scratched his head.
After all, if he couldn’t even handle something like soothing his daughter, his fatherhood would be in vain. He believed that if Cecilia were still here, he might have had to kneel on the washboard for an entire day. It was simply due to the information gap—the two of them didn’t seem to be on the same wavelength at all.
"Can I handle it myself? If I'm not mistaken, Siegfried, the Judgement of Shamash is no longer in your hands," Einstein crossed her arms and said dryly.
Are the people in Kaslana's family really this thick-skinned? Even if his ancestral weapon was lost, he can still say such things. If Siegfried’s Judgement of Shamash hadn’t been lost, Einstein would have believed it when he said this.
But now, please stop joking. If Siegfried hadn’t contacted her today, she might have forgotten about it.
Even now, the woman named [Aslaug] is still imprinted in her mind and won’t fade away easily.
If Theresa hadn’t suddenly sent a message a few days ago, saying that the World Serpent had abandoned the Project Stigma, Einstein probably wouldn't have had time to check this communication request now.
"Uh... How do you know about this? Have you met her, Einstein?"
When Einstein suddenly brought up the topic, Siegfried felt a bit panicked.
It was quite embarrassing to admit that he had "sent" it himself.
(Bai Mo: [Please]~)
"I have met her... You mean, the woman named Aslaug, right?"
On the other end of the communication, Einstein unhurriedly tore open the chocolate wrapper, took a piece, and put it in her mouth, speaking casually.
"Yes, it’s her. I gave her the Judgement of Shamash."
After thinking it over, Siegfried still didn’t dare to reveal the full truth. After all, he needed to maintain some dignity.
"But why bring this up suddenly? Do you know each other? I mean, is there a conflict?"
Well! If there is any conflict between the two sides, Siegfried decided he’d better speak well of Bai Mo. After all, he still owed her quite a few favors.
At least, he didn’t know how to repay them.
Miss Bai, I can only help you up to this point.
"There was a bit of a conflict before. She is very dangerous."
Einstein paused to think. Given the multiple Herrscher powers she possesses and the mystery surrounding her identity, Einstein felt uneasy, even though Project Stigma had been abandoned.
"Dangerous... But I think it’s okay. After all, it was Miss Aslaug who supported me in going to St. Freya Academy this time."
Recalling their first meeting, Siegfried couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. The situation had been rather intense at the time.
On the other side, after hearing Siegfried's words, Einstein remained silent for a few seconds, constantly wondering whether the other party had a new plan in mind.
What could their intentions be? What benefits might they gain?
Seeing Einstein fall silent, Siegfried began to feel uneasy. He could tell she was thinking about something bad. So, he hurriedly interrupted, "Ahem, although I don’t know what you think of her, Einstein, I can guarantee that Miss Aslaug has no intention of harming me or Kiana."
Siegfried patted his chest and reassured her with a serious voice, carrying an air of unquestionable certainty.
Because you’ve said that Miss Bai is very dangerous and that her behavior is unpredictable, Siegfried refused to believe that the other party intended harm. He knew she genuinely cared about Kiana.
He was certain of this and could see it clearly, which is why he trusted Bai Mo so much.
"So, you’re familiar with her?"
To be honest, Einstein was very curious about why Siegfried was making this guarantee.
After all, Siegfried was a capable and experienced warrior. He wouldn't make a mistake when it came to reading people. It was a skill honed over time, and Siegfried excelled at it.
"Familiar? Let’s just say that if she ever reveals her true identity, it will definitely surprise you."
The sudden resurrection of a "dead" person was quite incredible. Thinking about this, Siegfried smiled, then raised his left arm and continued, "Look, even my broken arm was healed by her—for Kiana."
-------
Chapter 356: The Return of Raiden Ryoma
That's right, it was for Kiana, so Siegfried felt that he was blessed by his daughter in this respect.
This arm can move freely without any side effects, just like the original one, and it also greatly facilitates Siegfried's daily life and battles.
Although it was a projection, Einstein could see it very clearly. After all, there was no other way to regenerate the broken arm to this extent except through the means of the Herrscher.
It was just that Siegfried's words from earlier piqued her interest. The woman named Aslaug appeared to have reshaped this arm for Siegfried, for Kiana.
So this means that the other party's true identity is actually known to Kiana, and they are very good friends.
Well, this is a point worth paying attention to. Maybe she can use this information to track them down, and perhaps find out the other party's true identity.
Although Siegfried also mentioned that the other party might take the initiative to reveal their identity, Einstein still didn't want to give up this opportunity. Nodding to herself, she decided to investigate the archives of St. Freya Academy after the call ended.
Anyway, Welt's teaching qualification at St. Freya had not been revoked, so she didn't need to waste it.
"Since that's the case, Siegfried, you decide this matter yourself. Anyway, if you need help, let's contact each other then."
Einstein shrugged and said calmly.
"Don't worry, Dr. Einstein, and remember to say hello to Welt for me."
Seeing that Einstein was no longer in the mood to continue chatting, Siegfried didn't say much more, waved his hand immediately, and hung up the phone with a smile.
Then he returned to the bedroom. Siegfried hurriedly packed up his things and prepared to go to the airport.
By the way, he also planned to buy some souvenirs at the airport as the first surprise for the reunion of father and daughter to give to Kiana.
Of course, there would also be a gift for Theresa—the Homu manga, a limited edition signed by Welt, as a thank-you gift for Theresa's care of Kiana.
Walking out of the hotel, Siegfried looked up at the blue sky, with a hint of expectation and a little sadness in his eyes.
"Cecilia... Next, I'm going to welcome our daughter back."
You will be very happy too. After all, after so many years, I finally have the opportunity to see her peacefully.
After saying that, Siegfried smiled and strode forward.
The target is the Far East! Let's go!
..................................
At the same time, on the other side, at the Anti-Entropy Headquarters.
After finishing the communication with Siegfried, Einstein wanted to investigate the archives of St. Freya Academy immediately. But just as she was about to get up and leave, a familiar person came down the corridor toward her.
A man who surprised her very much, but who shouldn't have appeared here.
"Raiden Ryoma..."
Einstein said softly.
Raiden Ryoma, the president of ME, the father of Raiden Mei, and one of the executors of Anti-Entropy, was framed by Cocolia in the early years and accused of defrauding about 3.4 billion US dollars in the name of financing the development of ultra-high-frequency electromagnetic field constraints. He was later imprisoned, and his reputation has plummeted since then.
Einstein also wanted to join Welt in vindicating him, but just as they were about to take action, the man was kidnapped by a group of mercenaries who came from nowhere and had been missing since then.
So what is going on? He had been missing for so long and didn't come earlier, but came at this time.
What is this? Did I discuss with Siegfried that there would also be a father-daughter meeting?
Einstein looked complicated and sat back on the sofa again, ready to listen to what Raiden Ryoma had to say.
"Long time no see, Dr. Einstein."
One doesn't know if it's because he didn't have a good time outside, but at this time, Raiden Ryoma looked much thinner, though his words were still powerful.
Looking at the familiar environment around him, Raiden Ryoma suddenly wanted to cry.
From the beginning of being jailed for no reason, he initially thought the jailbreakers wanted to take him somewhere to kill him out of revenge. After all, when he was in the business world, before going to prison, he had made many enemies, so this possibility couldn't be ruled out.
So when he was knocked unconscious and taken away, Raiden Ryoma was ready to be killed, but... something unexpected happened afterward...
Because the other party didn't kill him, but took care of him with food and drink along the way. So this was to kill him? No, this was obviously to save him!
Confused, after calming down, Raiden Ryoma still couldn't figure out who would want to save him, and he couldn't see the faces of the jailbreakers, since he had been covered with a black cloth at that time.
In this situation, anyone would want to ask what was going on. But when he was about to ask, he saw that the other party didn't give him a chance at all. They kicked him off the car, and he rolled into the grass on the side of the road and fainted.
When he woke up again, he had been taken back by a local resident...
No, until today, he finally had the opportunity to return here.
As for why he did not contact the people of Anti-Entropy, it was because he was afraid that the woman Cocolia might do something. After all, he had finally gotten out of prison, and it was better to be cautious and prudent. The only person he could trust was himself.
It was the beginning of a classic undercover police and gangster movie. He never expected he would encounter such a thing one day. After thinking about it, he still couldn't understand the motives of the jailbreakers. Fortunately, the ending was good, so he didn't waste too much energy guessing these things.
With a long sigh of relief, Raiden Ryoma walked to the coffee machine, made himself a cup, and then told Einstein about his experiences these past days in the shortest time.
"Anyway, welcome back."
After a long while, Einstein covered her forehead and said with a headache.
Of course, her headache was from all that Raiden Ryoma had experienced.
After all, it was really... too outrageous.
Raiden Ryoma shrugged his shoulders, his face also full of helplessness.
---------
Chapter 357: Ruthlessly Dismantling Machine~Bronya
"So, you plan to go to St. Freya's Academy and then meet Raiden Mei, right?"
"Uh... After all, Mei and I haven't seen each other for a long time. Don't worry, I’ll contact her secretly and won’t let the people from Schicksal find out."
The first thing Raiden Ryoma did after returning to Anti-Entropy was investigate Raiden Mei's information. As a result, he knew that his daughter was currently studying at St. Freya's Academy in the Far East.
However, he was troubled by the fact that his daughter had become a Herrscher. He could only say that it was all destined, but fortunately, Mei's condition was now stable, so he could rest a little easier.
"Sure enough..."
Einstein lowered her head and sighed softly.
She should have guessed it long ago...
"Sure enough?"
Einstein's mumbling was clearly heard by Raiden Ryoma, so he asked in confusion.
Sure enough, what? Or, at this point in time, have Anti-Entropy and Schicksal started a war again? Is the situation tense? Can I not go to the Far East?
However, when I came here, I didn’t see any movement in the War Preparation Department, and the Titans at the headquarters were still on standby...
"It's okay. If you want to see Raiden Mei, just go openly. The situation is different now. Anti-Entropy and St. Freya Academy are now allies."
Einstein seemed to sense Raiden Ryoma's doubts and explained.
"Besides, Sieg will also go to St. Freya Academy to see his daughter in two days. I will contact him in advance. You can just go with him."
After that, Einstein took a sip of coffee and glanced at the time.
At most, she would talk for five more minutes, then she would have to go to her own business.
After all, after investigating the archives of St. Freya Academy, she still had to continue her experiments with Schrödinger.
"This... It seems that a lot of things happened during my absence."
Hearing this, Raiden Ryoma shook his head and smiled bitterly. He had not expected Anti-Entropy to form an alliance with St. Freya Academy, and he was also quite surprised.
"By the way, do you have any information about the mercenaries who rescued you from prison?"
After thinking for a moment, Einstein decided to ask a question she was most curious about. After all, the answer to this question had been bothering her for a long time.
"Mercenaries? Those people are... Well, they do have the style of mercenaries."
Recalling the scene when he was kicked off the car, Raiden Ryoma couldn't stop twitching his mouth. It’s just that those people didn’t say much throughout the whole process, and he was still in a state of blindness the entire time. So, if Einstein asked him about the information of those people, Raiden Ryoma really couldn’t answer for the time being.
Since Einstein asked, it meant she hadn’t found any information about that group of people...
Are mercenaries so powerful now? The information about this group can’t even be found by Anti-Entropy's network.
While surprised, Raiden Ryoma also reflected on that unbearable memory.
"The mercenaries revealed very little information, but I seem to have heard them say... Raven? This seems to be the name of their captain. Other than that, I haven’t heard any useful information."
After a long while, Raiden Ryoma, who had come out of his memories, pondered.
"Raven... Okay, I will pay more attention to this matter and let you know when there’s news."
"In addition, if you want to know anything else, go to the data room. Your access rights haven’t been revoked."
Einstein had a feeling she had heard this codename somewhere, as if it was related to something called Charon List, which recorded most of the world’s famous mercenaries.
But she had too much to do right now, so investigating this matter might take some time.
"Thank you. Let me investigate this matter myself. After all, Dr. Einstein, you probably have more important things to do, right?"
"Well, in that case, I’ll leave first."
After saying that, Einstein waved her hand and turned to leave.
After Einstein left, Raiden Ryoma didn’t stay long either. He chose to head to the data room first to check on the recent movements of his colleague, a woman named Cocolia.
He wasn't a gentleman if he didn't take revenge. After meeting Mei, Raiden Ryoma decided to deal with the frame-up. Of course, it was also time for him to take back the ME Club.
..................................
On the other side, at St. Freya Academy.
Since returning from Coral Island, Kiana, Mei, and Bronya had all started their own training, and they had to rest very late every day.
After all, even though they were no longer under the pressure of the Project Stigma, they still needed to work hard to fight against Honkai and the Herrscher.
As usual, Mei and Bronya completed their training today and waited for Kiana at the door of the classroom.
It was about seven o'clock in the evening, and it was already dark outside.
Kiana was very competitive this time and walked out of the classroom five minutes earlier than yesterday, around 7:30.
"Mei! Bronya!"
Seeing the two familiar figures outside the door, Kiana’s previously depressed mood instantly lifted, and she soon smiled and ran toward them.
"How was it? Did Kiana listen to Teacher Himeko today?"
Seeing Kiana come out, Mei smiled and pulled out a box of rice balls from behind, handing them to her as she spoke.
"Well... Of course..."
Expertly tearing open the package and putting a rice ball in her mouth, Kiana was about to say that she had listened, but at that moment, Bronya answered for her first.
"Bronya thinks there’s a 20% chance that Kiana listened to Teacher Himeko."
Ruthlessly dismantling machine!
And if you looked closely, you could see a faint smirk on Bronya’s face at that moment.
Yes, after Bronya successfully merged the Herrscher Core, not only were her legs healed, but even her problematic emotional module was repaired.
"Haha... Bronya is right, Kiana is really a headache for me."
Just then, Himeko walked out of the classroom, shaking her head with a wry smile.
-----------
Chapter 358: Kiana: Have You Heard of the Immortal Phoenix?
"Teacher Himeko." ×2
Mei and Bronya waved and greeted Himeko when they saw her.
Kiana, still eating a rice ball with her mouth full, didn’t say anything.
Even so, she looked at Himeko and Bronya with a complaining expression.
Just sabotage! Can't you praise yourself? Maybe if you wait for dinner tonight, Mei can fry more chicken nuggets for her!
With a helpless sigh, Kiana had to give up the idea in her heart and quickly followed the others.
......................
"How was the training today? Are you feeling well?"
Walking back to the dormitory, Himeko asked Mei and Bronya with concern.
After all, the two of them had been putting a lot of effort into training the power of the Herrscher recently. Although there wouldn't be any major problems with Welt, Himeko still couldn't help but worry.
Or, as a teacher, it was already difficult for her to accept her students actively accepting the power of the Herrscher.
But the two girls were very determined to control this power no matter what, so Himeko had no choice but to give in and ask them to promise that if they felt uncomfortable while practicing the power of the Herrscher, they would stop.
The two had agreed to Himeko’s request, so they were able to train with Welt under her supervision.
"Well... there is a bit of muscle soreness, but it will be fine. After a hot bath and a good night’s sleep, I'll feel better by tomorrow morning."
It must be said that after repairing her emotional module, Bronya became more cheerful, and during this time, she had insisted on walking with her legs instead of flying at low altitude with her power.
"Bronya is right, so don't worry, Mr. Himeko."
Mei also smiled and agreed.
And she wasn’t lying. Practicing as a Herrscher was a very simple thing for the two of them.
Bronya, who had integrated the Herrscher of Reason's core, not only did not develop the typical Herrscher personality, but also had the assistance of 300,000 people’s thoughts. In particular, the first acting Herrscher, Welt Joyce, had turned this ideal into an inheritance and passed it to her.
Now, Bronya was far from fully controlling the power of Reason, but all she needed was time.
As for Mei, although she did not have the thoughts of 300,000 people to assist her, nor a senior to pave the way, she had another self. While this other self was the Herrscher personality and the embodiment of Honkai, her essence was still good, and she didn’t possess the pure desire to destroy the world or humanity.
And after spending so many days together, Mei had fully understood the meaning of the term “tsundere.”
It was just that her other self kept calling her a coward, which made her feel very distressed.
Therefore, for these reasons, their practice of the Herrscher power had not been difficult. In fact, it had gone quite smoothly, to the point that the former civilization would cry, envying this Herrscher who fought for humanity.
"And me! And me! I also trained well, and the class monitor praised me for making great progress at noon today!"
At this moment, Kiana suddenly ran up to the three of them and said proudly, hands on her hips.
Well! As long as you don’t mention academic performance!
After all, she didn’t dare boast in that regard because, when you add up the three courses, she would only get a full score of 100.
But the practical course was different. After all, people in the Kaslana family generally had good comprehension! (Serious bias in subjects!)
"Really? What reward does Kiana want?"
"Hehe... As for the reward... How about Mei making some more fried chicken tonight?"
Kiana smiled sheepishly while hugging Mei's shoulders, clearly acting like a spoiled child.
Well, actually, she was acting like a spoiled child.
Bronya shook her head, but Mei really liked it, so she nodded in agreement.
Kiana was so happy that she almost jumped up and kissed all three of them on the face.
"Bang!"
In fact, Kiana did have this impulse, but it was punished by Himeko’s hand knife.
"Ah, it hurts!"
"Be honest, Kiana. With Fu Hua’s ability to teach you, it would be strange if you didn’t make progress."
"Well... I know~"
Holding her forehead, Himeko still had a headache from Kiana's overly lively personality. While being lively is good, Kiana could be a handful at times.
But we have to admit that despite this, Kiana had made a lot of progress recently. At least she was more motivated than before, and she no longer slept or skipped classes.
Well, sometimes she still did, but generally speaking, that behavior was rare.
Birds that leave the ivory tower will always grow up one day, but Himeko always felt that even though the three had not left Saint Freya yet, they had grown a lot.
Perhaps this change had been happening for a long time, but now, the growth rate of the three had been magnified infinitely.
Maybe there was some sighing for a moment. Himeko looked at the three gently and didn’t speak for a long time.
The three didn’t notice the change in Himeko’s expression, but through what she said, they knew she was discussing Fu Hua.
But to be more precise, it was actually Kiana telling the two stories unilaterally, or rather, the truth.
Himeko also listened with interest. This wasn’t gossip!
"I just care about my students! Yes! As a teacher, it is necessary for me to know more about the students in my class, especially the monitor."
"You know! After training today, the monitor told me a big secret!"
Kiana’s blue eyes turned mischievously as she pointed a mysterious finger.
"A big secret? Could it be that the monitor remembered her past?"
Mei’s attention was immediately captured by this.
"Well... It’s not wrong to say that, because the monitor did tell me about her previous identity today."
"A MANTIS from the previous era?"
Bronya asked tentatively. After all, it was difficult for her to imagine what other identity Fu Hua could have.
"Come on, Bronya, everyone already knows this identity."
Kiana seized the opportunity to laugh at Bronya.
"If you're keeping it a secret, Kiana, Bronya doesn’t mind letting Project Bunny eat your fried chicken tonight!"
Bronya didn’t care about this and just smiled.
"Vile!"
It has to be said that Bronya’s trick worked well on Kiana, and she immediately calmed down.
"Okay, okay, but before I talk about this, I have another question to ask you." Kiana tried to lower her voice as much as possible to create a mysterious atmosphere. "That is, have you heard of the legend of the Immortal Phoenix?"
--------
Chapter 359: Fu Hua: It is I, the Immortal Phoenix, who has brought shame to Shenzhou
......................................
Eight hours ago, in the training ground of Saint Freya Academy.
"Inch Force! Yunlan!"
A punch was thrown out, and the wind of the fist moved automatically. The surrounding air seemed to condense and gather on Fu Hua's punch. Then, she used her body skills and appeared at Kiana's side in a flash.
"Not good!"
Kiana saw that she couldn't dodge in time, so she had to block her arms in front of her body to try to relieve the force. The long battle had made her physically exhausted.
If she took this punch, she might not be able to train next.
And seeing Kiana's embarrassment at this time, Fu Hua withdrew a little strength, but the power of this punch was still terrifying. The moment it touched Kiana's arm, she was knocked out and hit the mat behind the training ground, far away.
Fortunately, the pad was made of silicone, so Kiana was not seriously injured this time. She only had a swelling on her arm, which was numb for a while, and she couldn't use her strength.
"Ahem... class monitor, you are too strong."
Waving her hand to disperse the dust around her, Kiana stood up from the pad with a wry smile.
Half an hour! It had been a full half an hour, and she hadn't found any flaws in Fu Hua.
Although she had been in a similar situation when she fought Fu Hua a few days ago, this felt a bit too abnormal.
Is this the margin for living for 50,000 years as a MANTIS from the previous era?
To be honest, she was a little envious.
"Kiana, you did a good job. At least you lasted eight minutes longer than the previous times."
Taking out safflower oil from her pocket, Fu Hua said while rolling up Kiana's sleeves and applying medicine to the red and swollen area.
If nothing unexpected happens, this injury will only take half an hour to recover.
"Really? Then I have improved?!"
Hearing Fu Hua say this, Kiana was overjoyed for a moment and completely forgot about her previous humiliation.
That's because she didn't care about these things at all. After all, what she cared about was a promise Fu Hua made to her before the training.
That is, as long as she made some progress in this training or could get Fu Hua's approval, then Fu Hua would give her a chance to ask her a question, no matter what it was.
As long as Fu Hua knew it, she would answer it.
Why did Fu Hua make this promise to Kiana? It was because Kiana's curiosity was too strong. Since the other party knew that she had lived for 50,000 years, Kiana had been pestering her to find out something.
Or was it curiosity about the immortal species? Interest in MANTISes? Or did she want to know how the previous era humans lived?
Fu Hua was also very troubled by this, but she couldn't pretend to be ignorant all the time. So, she took this opportunity to give Kiana a chance to ask her questions.
But unfortunately, she still hadn't recalled her previous memories. What she had were only those fragments floating in her mind and recorded in Fenghuang Down.
She could only glimpse a little but couldn't understand all of them. Of course, those fragments were not memories from 50,000 years ago but memories from the time when she was a Immortal Phoenix.
Of course, the more important reason was that Otto and the World Serpent had reached a cooperative relationship, and her previous mission to monitor Kiana had been canceled.
So, this was the real reason Fu Hua could speak freely.
...Well, in fact, it wasn't that she could speak freely. At least Fu Hua was still hesitant about the fact that Bai Mo had died, and she didn't know whether she should tell everyone the truth.
Yes, due to Bai Mo's previous request, Otto did not take the initiative to tell Fu Hua that she was still alive.
"Ah..."
With a sigh, Fu Hua regained her focus, then adjusted her mindset and said to Kiana: "From a time perspective, it is true, so what do you want to ask, Kiana?"
"Then, class monitor, do you remember what happened 50,000 years ago?"
Kiana asked excitedly.
"I'm sorry, I've tried hard to recall this, but it's still in vain."
Fu Hua shook her head lightly, indicating that she was powerless, but then changed the subject and said, "But, I remember a lot of things that happened in the Shenzhou Continent in the past 4,000 years."
After Fu Hua said this, Kiana's dim eyes regained their brightness, and she hugged her arms and said quickly, "Shenzhou! This is good! This is good!"
"Then, class monitor, please tell me, among the many legends in Shenzhou, do the immortals they keep talking about really exist?!"
Kiana's tone was a little excited. After all, if the class monitor said so, then it was very likely that she had seen those immortals!
Thinking about the novels she had read before, those immortals could move mountains and fill the sea, fly with swords, and have those unfathomable immortal arts with just a wave of their hands, Kiana was very excited.
"Let me ask you first, what do you think of immortals, Kiana?"
Although Fu Hua wanted to tell Kiana that she was an immortal, based on her understanding of Kiana, she was very likely to have some misunderstandings about immortals, so there would be unnecessary trouble after revealing her identity.
So, based on this point, Fu Hua felt that she needed to ask clearly before answering the question to see if Kiana had been influenced by Shenzhou immortal novels.
"My impression of immortals? For example..."
Then, Kiana used her rich vocabulary, based on the immortals in the novels, and combined them with what she thought, to describe everything.
As a result, Fu Hua was speechless.
Sure enough, the idea that Kiana wasn't influenced by Shenzhou immortal novels was wrong from the beginning.
After all, there is no immortal in this world who can reverse time, live forever, or even explode stars and break through the heavens.
I'm sorry, it was her, the Immortal Jingwei, who brought shame to Shenzhou, so please forgive her for not being able to do such absurd things.
"Hey? Why are you shaking your head, class monitor? Don't tell me you haven't actually seen an immortal?" Kiana asked in confusion.
"No, I'm just... that's all. Anyway, what you just said, Kiana, at least in the 4,000 years that I have been protecting Shenzhou, there has never been such an immortal as you said."
Fu Hua told the truth and made it clear.
---------
Chapter 360 Kiana: I Want to Go to the World Serpent
"Sure enough, are the immortals in novels all made up by people?"
The words were full of disappointment, which is an emotion that people only express when their fantasies are erased, just like when children grow up and slowly stop believing that there are Ultraman in the world.
After all, it was said by Fu Hua, and Kiana couldn't believe it even if she didn't want to.
"I'm very happy that you think so, Kiana. So, do you want to see a real immortal?"
Verbal explanations are never as good as actual actions to prove it. Seeing Kiana's disappointment, Fu Hua also planned to make up for it in her own way.
Immortal Phoenix...
This title has been with her for a while. Although she has never been interested in this title, it is a symbol of the love the people of Shenzhou have for her, anyway.
Of course, there are also the two girls who have appeared many times in her memory, Nuwa and Fuxi. Although she can't remember too many things, Fu Hua can still clearly know that these two girls are definitely very important people in her life.
"A real immortal?!"
"That's right. Since you have read novels from Shenzhou, you should have also learned about the history of Shenzhou."
Fu Hua said lightly, while putting her hand on the end of her hair.
"The history of Shenzhou... I remember that teacher Welt talked about this in history class before. For example, when Schicksal went on an expedition to the east more than 500 years ago, an immortal appeared on the battlefield at that time."
In 1475, when Schicksal and the Ming Empire fought a decisive battle, the Immortal Phoenix was in charge of Shenzhou. With their own strength, they crushed all the expeditionary forces of Schicksal and defeated Kallen, the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal at that time.
Kiana fell into a brief memory, and to be honest, this might be the only piece of history she remembered from history class. It was this story that made her develop a strong interest in the immortals of Shenzhou, which led to Kiana's contact with the immortal novels of Shenzhou.
"So, class monitor, what you mean by asking this question is that you have a way for me to see this immortal?!"
How could this mean that the Immortal Phoenix is also her idol!
They can defeat the expeditionary army with one blow and can also defeat the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal!
Fu Hua did not answer much, but slowly untied the Fenghuang Down at the end of her hair under Kiana's surprised eyes.
"Fenghuang Down..."
With her long gray hair scattered, Fu Hua held Fenghuang Down in her hand and urged this power again after a long time.
Then a red light flashed, and several red feathers appeared out of thin air in the air.
Because there were many people and eyes on the training ground, Fu Hua finally decided to pull Kiana into the space created by Fenghuang Down to let her see the truth of the immortal.
"This...what is this?"
After a flash of red light, Kiana only felt her mind was in a trance, and then, in the blink of an eye, she found that she seemed to have come to a strange place.
The surroundings were all blank, just like the consciousness space in the novel.
Could it be that I could see the immortal from five hundred years ago in here?
With such doubts, Kiana raised her head and looked forward...
"Class...Class monitor, you."
It's just that...she didn't see the immortal, but there was a Fu Hua with white hair, red eyes, and wearing a cheongsam in front of her.
Could it be that?! The class monitor is actually the Immortal Jingwei from five hundred years ago?!
If you think about it this way, it does fit what the class monitor said before!
After all, it's not so easy to see an immortal, but if this immortal is herself, then wouldn't it be possible to see her casually!
Kiana thought about it, clapped her hands, and immediately understood the current situation.
"So, class monitor, you are the immortal who protected Shenzhou back then!"
After saying that, Kiana immediately ran to Fu Hua's side and looked directly at her.
Emmm...Except for some regrets in some places, the class monitor is also very good-looking!
Or is it that the food thousands of years ago was actually very bad, and the class monitor has never developed?
"People often call me an immortal, but I am just an ordinary person."
Fu Hua shook her head and said very calmly. It was obvious that she was immersed in her previous memories at the moment and did not notice Kiana's offensive eyes.
As soon as the voice fell, Fu Hua waved her hand again, and the white space where the two were before was instantly broken, reorganized, and finally turned into a brand new scene.
This place is located on the top of a mountain, surrounded by birds and cranes. Looking up, you can see the floating white clouds.
"This place is called Mount Taixu, where I lived a long time ago."
The two looked down at each other, and Fu Hua explained slowly.
"Can we go in and take a look?"
Kiana said excitedly at this time, very interested in Fu Hua... no, it should be said that she was very interested in the place where the Immortal Phoenix lived before.
"Not yet. My memory is still defective, so some details of Mount Taixu have not been fully evolved in this illusion, so it is useless even if we get close to it."
As she said, Fu Hua punched forward, and then the illusion spread like fog wherever the fist passed.
Perhaps if she could recover a little more memory, this illusion could be solidified.
"When do you plan to recover your memory, class monitor?"
Suddenly, Kiana asked, but this time, her tone was no longer as excited as before, as if she had suddenly become a different person.
In response, Fu Hua was stunned for a moment and then replied, "Maybe within two weeks, or even shorter."
Speaking of recovering memories, Fu Hua has been trying to recall in her own way recently, but the effect is not obvious, and it is time-consuming and laborious.
So in desperation, she also recalled what the girl named Mobius said to her when she was on Coral Island, "If you want to recover your memory, come to the World Serpent." And it seems that if she wants to regain her memory, this is the only way.
At the same time, now that Schicksal has cooperated with the World Serpent, this is indeed a good opportunity.
"Then you are going to go to the World Serpent, right? And the place called the Elysian Realm?"
For some reason, when Kiana mentioned the three words "World Serpent," her eyes were always a little erratic, and her hands clenched subconsciously.
"Yes, I will ask for leave from the school principal. What's wrong, Kiana? Do you have something to do?"
Fu Hua naturally saw that something was wrong with Kiana, so she asked subconsciously.
"Then...can you take me with you then, class monitor? I...I want to meet someone."
Or rather, to confirm one thing...
Chapter 361: Kiana's Decision
"Looking for someone?" Hearing this, Fu Hua looked at Kiana with some doubt. "Kiana, do you know anyone in World Serpent?"
No, that's not right. Logically speaking, Kiana hasn't been out these days, let alone in the past. The farthest she has been is New Zealand and Singapore. How could she have had the opportunity to contact people from World Serpent?
And as far as she knows, the World Serpent organization has only surfaced recently, so no matter from which point of view, Kiana has no reason to know anyone from World Serpent.
With these doubts, Fu Hua looked at Kiana deeply. After the latter met Fu Hua's gaze, her eyes also unconsciously glanced down.
It was as if she had something on her mind, completely different from the high spirits she had shown earlier.
Well, now she understood why Kiana had been chasing her and asking about the past recently. It turned out she had been waiting here, just to lead up to this sentence, so she could make her own request, right?
Obviously, she could have asked directly...
On the other side, Kiana, being looked at by Fu Hua, realized that now was not the time to be entangled, so she looked up and said, "class monitor, do you know someone called Aslaug?"
"Aslaug? So... she is the person you are looking for, Kiana?"
Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar name from Kiana's mouth, Fu Hua was obviously a little surprised.
After all, the two of them should not have had any communication, so why would Kiana care so much about this person?
She was puzzled.
"That's right. So, class monitor, do you know her?"
For some reason, Kiana's tone was a little anxious at this moment.
"It's not that I know her. After all, the first time I heard this name was on the wanted poster issued by the headquarters."
Shaking her head, Fu Hua dispelled the illusion and whispered to Kiana.
While Fu Hua was talking, Kiana was staring into her eyes, as if she wanted to see something clearly, but in the end, she still couldn't discern anything.
After all, Fu Hua really didn't know her.
Although Fu Hua wanted to tell Kiana that she had fought with Aslaug once, it would have been almost the same as not knowing her. And to be honest, there were too many doubts, and she couldn’t explain them, so Fu Hua just changed the subject.
"Is that so..."
Kiana's tone seemed a little disappointed.
At the same time, she felt a little regretful, regretting that she hadn't chosen to find her when she was on Coral Island, to ask her some questions and find an answer for herself.
After all, if so many people from World Serpent were there at that time, Aslaug would definitely have been there...
Could Aslaug be Bai Mo?
Kiana often thinks about this question. When Fu Hua was answering, Kiana was staring into Fu Hua's eyes, hoping to see something in them.
But it's also... After all, the class monitor had never really contacted her, so naturally, she couldn't sense anything else.
Sometimes, Kiana really wishes she could go back to the time when she was in New Zealand. If she hadn't been unconscious then, would she have known where Bai Mo was?
She wouldn't have to be in this situation now...
Going back to Shenzhou to visit relatives?
Kiana doesn't believe that, with Bai Mo's personality, she wouldn't resist taking pictures of herself, Mei, Bronya, Auntie, and Teacher Himeko after returning home, and then sending some specialties.
This kind of lame or white lie is only suitable for deceiving children, right?
At first, it was still believable, but after a long time, it was hard not to become suspicious.
The most important thing is that when Bronya used hacking technology to collect intelligence on New Zealand, the news was suddenly blocked, as if someone was deliberately preventing them from obtaining something.
She is not stupid, and neither are Mei and Bronya. It's just that everyone tacitly didn't say it out loud, wanting to keep a little hope in their hearts.
So, everyone chose to find something in their own way, instead of going to Fu Hua one by one to get an answer that might not satisfy them.
Of course, maybe one day, they will really ask something, but... that is definitely not today.
Finally, God does not let down those who work hard. Although the search process is long, they still have gained something.
After all, whether it's March 7th in Croca Town or Aslaug in The Deep, they can find that familiar figure in them.
But none of them have had the opportunity... None of them have mustered the courage to ask each other.
So, this time, Kiana doesn't want to wait anymore. She wants to use Fu Hua to go to World Serpent to retrieve her memory and, at the same time, find the answers for herself and everyone else.
"Qi..."
Seeing Kiana's mood shift, Fu Hua was about to speak to comfort her but was interrupted by Kiana's words.
"Captain, can you take me with you?"
Although Kiana was asking Fu Hua, her tone was full of determination.
"..."
Fu Hua had never seen Kiana like this before and was inevitably a little absent-minded for a moment, but she quickly recovered and said, "If Kiana wants to follow, after all, even if I don't take you, I'm afraid you will secretly follow me, Kiana."
"Thank you, captain."
...............................................
Back to the present.
After Kiana's exaggeration along the way (actually, she told some legends about the Immortal Phoenix), everyone also learned the truth that Fu Hua was the Immortal Phoenix.
To be honest, the one who reacted the most was Himeko. After all, 50,000 years might still seem like a long time to her, but the things that happened in the past four thousand years are real stories that happened in this era.
Her student is the famous Immortal Phoenix in Shenzhou. How proud would she be to tell others about it? Anyway, she doesn't care whether others believe it or not. Himeko wants to be proud of herself for a while.
Although this actually has nothing to do with her, it's okay to take advantage of it!
If Bai Mo were here, she would definitely not accept it. After all, if she wants to take advantage of someone, it should be her first!
After all, isn't the Herrscher of Finality more prestigious than the Immortal?!

Chapter 362: Elysia! Bad!
.................................
World Serpent, Golden Courtyard.
After dinner, Eden spread a blanket on the grass in the courtyard and placed a few bottles of wine on it.
The baked cookies were set aside as everyone relaxed, enjoying the coolness of the night and the breeze while lying comfortably, gazing at the starry sky.
"How about it, Lau? Do you want a glass~ It's delicious~"
With sapphire-like eyes shining like stars, Elysia smiled, swirled the wine in her glass, and then handed it to Bai Mo.
Before that, she and Eden had drunk no less than three bottles, but fortunately, both of them had good alcohol tolerance, so they were only a little tipsy at best.
Bai Mo, on the other hand, had been drinking juice to accompany Little Griseo, afraid of getting drunk. Naturally, Elysia wasn’t going to let Bai Mo continue like this; after all, there’s no such thing as not getting drunk~
And if she didn’t get drunk, how could she find an opportunity?
"Ellie, you should know that wine and the like really aren’t suitable for me..."
Seeing Elysia about to put the wine glass to her lips, with the bright red lip print on it, Bai Mo leaned back unconsciously.
Of course, she didn’t mind kissing Elysia, but she was really afraid that she’d end up lying there after just a sip.
How could she not know what this bad woman was thinking? Didn’t she just want to take advantage of her drunkenness and do this and that?
On the side, Eden seemed to understand something after seeing Elysia’s actions. She immediately smiled slightly and then took Little Griseo to her side.
It’s better for children to watch less of such scenes.
"..."
Well done! My good Eden!
Elysia understood, secretly giving Eden a thumbs-up in her heart.
"No~ Just drink a little, okay? Besides, this wine was brewed by Eden with [Purple Helen]!"
With Eden’s help, Elysia also pressed her chest against Bai Mo’s arm, then said coquettishly.
"I... Ellie, I really can’t do it. We have to catch a plane early tomorrow morning. What if I get drunk and can’t get up?"
Well, actually, when it comes to the wine brewed by Eden with [Purple Helen], Bai Mo really wants to taste it. After all, this wine is fragrant and has an indescribable sweetness, but... often behind beautiful things, there are great dangers hidden.
The same goes for this glass of wine brewed with [Purple Helen].
Behind it is Elysia, waiting to take advantage of her.
Bad woman! She has sinister intentions!
As for [Purple Helen], it’s a specialty of Mu Continent from the previous era. Before it became extinct, Eden had purchased a lot of it and stored it in the Elysian Realm. It was just taken out yesterday.
"Anyway, we are on the special plane of Schicksal, right? It will definitely not delay the time!" Elysia put on a pitiful look and said in an expectant tone, "And Lau really doesn’t want to drink a sip. This is the lifelong request of Miss Elf!"
"......" Then your life is too cheap! ! !
Looking at Elysia constantly blowing into the wine glass, trying to make her smell the wine, Bai Mo’s mouth twitched.
How about a small sip? Satisfy Ellie’s wish?
Thinking this, Bai Mo stole a glance at Elysia, only to see that this bad woman still looked pitiful, her mouth slightly pouting, very cute.
To be honest, although Bai Mo knew that Elysia was pretending, she still couldn’t bring herself to refuse.
Forget it, I’ll drink it. After all, if I don’t go to hell, who will?
Shaking her head, Bai Mo adopted an indifferent attitude toward life and death.
Just as Bai Mo made up her mind, Elysia seemed to be preparing something.
"Then drink a little... Hey? Ellie, what are you doing!"
"Bang!"
Just as Bai Mo was about to take the wine glass and take a sip, Elysia suddenly moved. She pushed Bai Mo onto the blanket with lightning speed and then pressed her whole body on him.
If softness didn’t work, she’d use hard tactics. This was originally Elysia’s plan, but she hadn’t expected Bai Mo to agree in the end, so after making this move, Elysia now regretted it very much.
"..."
Hey~ I seem to be a little too eager.
However, she could only make the best of it now, as there was no turning back!
She raised her head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, then put her face close to Bai Mo’s.
"Ellieshi... woooo... woooo!"
Bai Mo widened her eyes. She really didn’t expect that Elysia would let her drink in this way!
This really didn’t even give her a chance to say a word! ! !
A cool sensation filled her mouth, the mellow aroma of grapes spreading within, followed by a naughty little troublemaker.
With a certain stirring effect, the alcohol evaporated faster. Before Bai Mo swallowed it, she felt dizzy in her brain, her face flushing with heat.
That feeling was like a person who drank a sip of white wine and then rinsed their mouth with white wine. It was hard not to get drunk!
But do you think the matter ends here?
Wrong! That’s totally wrong!
Because Elysia realized that she had made a mistake. Why not be a little bolder?
With that idea in mind, she immediately took advantage of Bai Mo’s drunkenness and ran to Eden to get two more bottles.
Eden saw it was difficult to stop her but just reminded Elysia not to be too reckless.
In response, Elysia smiled and said that she knew her limits.
"Be grateful~♪"
Pressing Bai Mo’s wrists with both hands, Elysia sat on her thighs, licking her lips as she said.
Beside her, two empty bottles lay.
"Sister Eden... save me..."
Because of the alcohol’s effect, Bai Mo’s eyes were blurry at this point, and she tried to ask Eden for help.
But just as she saw the surrounding scene clearly, she found herself lying on a large bed, and the Sister Eden she had been thinking about had disappeared long ago.
---------
Chapter 363: Go to the Schicksal Headquarters
Bai Mo was still dizzy when she woke up the next morning. Her waist and legs were sore, and her knees were a little red.
She stretched and almost died from the discomfort.
Don’t ask. If you ask, you’ll be judged.
But she didn’t suffer any loss anyway. After all, the current appearance of Elysia was almost the same as hers, which was proof.
She casually used the Power of Creation on herself to treat the bad woman, then slowly put on the clothes Eden had made for her the day before.
The two of them tacitly avoided mentioning what had happened the night before. They acted as if nothing had happened and were still the same as usual.
After all, Bai Mo couldn’t really blame Elysia, could she? And if Elysia said, "Willfulness is a girl's privilege~" Bai Mo could only reply, "You’re right."
"Hmm... what time is it now, Lau?"
Elysia lazily lay on Bai Mo's back, looking like she hadn’t woken up yet.
"It’s 7:30. If the special plane is at 8:30, it’s fine if we go a little slower."
It was so funny. Anyway, the special plane sent to pick them up was from Schicksal. If they were still on time, it wouldn't even feel like a special plane~
Trusting in Schicksal's technology, the journey to the headquarters would be very fast, so Bai Mo figured she might as well wash up and have breakfast.
"Okay! Then Lau, come and dress me~"
"......"
Aren’t you being too lazy, woman? You don’t even want to put on your own clothes? You were so bold last night, but now you can’t manage it?
So weak!
"Okay~"
Seeing Bai Mo look at her with an expression that said "you’re hopeless, lazy to death," Elysia once again resorted to her coquettish method.
Holding the ball, Bai Mo’s arm swung back and forth.
"Okay, okay, but if you want to do this again next time, I suggest you change the words."
Helplessly, Bai Mo agreed after being tricked by Elysia and set her own condition.
"What words?!"
Elysia said excitedly. Wasn’t it just changing words?
As long as Bai Mo could dress her every day without her doing it herself, she could say anything!
A Pink Elf was afraid of such small difficulty? Wouldn’t it be a joke if she said it out loud?
Elysia looked like she had gained something.
"'Please! Another me!' How about it? Doesn’t it sound familiar? Come on, lift your legs."
As Bai Mo said, she lifted Elysia’s thighs and put the triangular fabric on her.
As for why she borrowed Seele’s words... well, although she might be suspected of stealing patents, she had shared a body with Elysia after all, and Origin and the Herrscher of Finality were twins anyway!
So all the conditions were very consistent! Nothing wrong with her saying this!
"Another me~ Sure, after all, this is your request, Lau~♪"
With a flower-like smile on her face, Elysia raised her arms to help Bai Mo put on her bra and took the opportunity to stick to her.
"Okay, okay, stop it."
"Gu..."
Bai Mo cruelly rejected Elysia's request to stick to her and quickly dressed Elysia before pushing her off the bed.
After all, this was still at Sister Eden's house, and it wouldn’t be good to be too bold! (Although it was already too bold~)
The next step was to use the Power of Wind to remove those strange smells and clean up the "crime scene." It was time to wash up and have breakfast.
............................................
"Good morning, Sister Eden~ and Little Griseo~"
As soon as the hot dumplings were brought out from the kitchen, Bai Mo saw that the two had already sat down at the dining table and were waiting.
Yes, Eden had slept with Little Griseo last night~
"Good morning, Lau."
"Good morning, Sister AsrLau."
Eden replied with a smile, and Griseo ran over to give Bai Mo a big hug before pulling her to her seat.
Seeing this, Elysia didn’t say anything but smiled at the two of them, as if she were happy.
After that, everyone finished breakfast quickly, and Eden and Griseo accompanied the two of them to the nearby airport before returning to the Golden Courtyard.
The special plane sent by Schicksal was technically called an airplane, but in essence, it was just an air transport ship, which Valkyries usually used when on missions. Its speed was similar to the aircraft made by Vervi, though some functions were far inferior.
Bai Mo still felt a little novelty about this, but Elysia looked calm. After all, she had ridden this kind of transport ship many times back in Fire moth.
.................................
"Beep beep!"
Suddenly, a message reminder sounded.
The sound came from Bai Mo’s pocket. It seems someone had sent her a message again.
"What's wrong, Lau?"
Since Bai Mo was lying on Elysia’s thigh at the time, she naturally felt the vibration when the message was prompted.
"Well... it was sent by Dudu."
Bai Mo took out her phone and swiped the screen. The first message in the short message was from Dudu.
[Golden Silly Goose]: "Are you almost there? If you are, please come to Airport No. 1. Rita and I are waiting for you."
"Pfft... Lau, are you sure Bianka won't hit you after seeing the ID you gave her?"
Elysia couldn’t help but smile after seeing Bai Mo’s note to Durandal. After all, what kind of ID was [Golden Silly Goose]?
"It’s okay, as long as it’s not seen by Silly Goose! Anyway, she can’t beat me even if we really fight."
Arrogance of Finality!
After that, Bai Mo started to reply to the message.
[Miss Elf's Rabbit]: "Expected arrival at the battlefield in half an hour! Please be prepared!"
Well, after all, it was a message to Durandal, so Bai Mo couldn’t resist making a joke. Even though Silly Goose who was a straight woman wouldn’t believe it.
[Golden Silly Goose]: "Miss Bai, please stop joking. Also, Rita has prepared some desserts for you two. I hope you like them."
It was convenient to have an external brain. As long as Durandal couldn’t handle it herself, Rita could take over the matter perfectly.
After seeing that the person who sent the message had been replaced, Bai Mo put away her little thoughts, immediately replied to Rita with "I know," and turned off the screen.
------
364
"Great! We're here at the Schicksal Headquarters!"
While waiting quietly for the transport ship to dock at the port, Bai Mo opened the hatch, picked up Elysia, and jumped off. This was her second time visiting the Schicksal headquarters as a guest!
Although she was a "guest" the last time she visited, there were still some differences. After all, she had gone there with the intention of demolishing the house last time.
She walked to the guardrail at the port and looked down, only seeing the endless blue sea. Looking up, she saw that if she flew just a little higher, she could easily touch the clouds.
"How about taking a picture~?"
Elysia suggested with a smile, following Bai Mo.
Taking group or landscape photos on the floating island is indeed a good idea. At least, it's very romantic, isn't it?
"It's my pleasure, Miss Pink Elf~♪"
Bai Mo didn't refuse. She turned around, made an elegant gesture, leaned over, held Elysia in her arms, and took out the camera with her other hand.
"The face is getting closer!"
Elysia, trying to put her face against Bai Mo's lips to give her a kiss, said playfully.
"Wow... we've already kissed!"
Bai Mo said with feigned disgust, but her body moved honestly.
......
Using the Power of Ideal fluid, Bai Mo fixed the camera in the air and switched it to automatic shooting. The two of them found a corner with good scenery and no one around, taking a few photos.
Of course, while taking photos, Elysia must have done some touching, not limited to kissing or sticking close to her. Bai Mo cooperated very well. After all, they had done more outrageous things than these, so why would they still be shy about such things?
Soon, the two of them selected a lot of suitable photos and uploaded them to the group album of the Golden Courtyard.
What? Why didn’t Bai Mo go to First Port to find Durandal and the others right away? That's because she told Rita in advance!
After being on the transport ship for so long, they should relax a little once they get off the ship. Bai Mo told Rita in advance and asked them to wait for half an hour.
"By the way, Lau, do you think we could also get Kevin to move the World Serpent headquarters to the sky?"
After taking so many photos, Elysia was obviously interested in floating islands. If she could watch the sunrise every day, wouldn't that be a very romantic thing?
"Ah? I guess Kevin can't do it, but if you ask Sister Vill-V, Ellie, maybe she’ll have a way."
Bai Mo glanced at Elysia, who was resting her head on her thighs, and said softly.
As the saying goes, everyone has their own expertise. Bai Mo felt that if Elysia asked Kevin to do this, it would be a bit too difficult.
What should Kevin do? Should he use icicles to prop up the entire World Serpent Headquarters into the sky?
The image was so beautiful that Bai Mo didn’t even dare to imagine it.
"It seems like a good idea! Then when we go back in a few days, let's ask Vill-V for help!"
"Okay, okay, but in that case, Ellie, you’ll need to bring more gifts for Sister Vill-V."
"Then give her a pink crystal rose! After all, a girl's heart is the most precious thing!"
Elysia flipped through the photos in the camera, each one holding the best memories of the two of them. She smiled and said while looking at them, and at the same time, she took the opportunity to lower her hand and press the shutter button, ready to capture the present moment between the two of them.
Bai Mo naturally noticed this little action of Elysia’s, so with a playful attitude, she also placed her finger on Elysia's face in advance, and at the moment the shutter was pressed, she gently pinched her face.
“Click!”
The shutter sound rang out, and the scene was frozen forever.
Elysia wasn’t angry at Bai Mo’s mischievous behavior. She just smiled wickedly and grabbed Bai Mo's little hand, which was trying to be taken back.
"Ellie, what are you doing?"
An ominous premonition came to Bai Mo’s mind. As she spoke, she wondered what this bad woman was going to do next.
Anyway, she wouldn't dare to do anything reckless in broad daylight. Thinking this, Bai Mo felt a little more confident.
"Bad kids will be punished! If you tease Miss Elf, you’ll also have to pay the price!"
Elysia shook her finger and said with a smirk.
Without Bai Mo noticing, her fingers were getting closer and closer to Elysia's mouth.
"Oh~ So you are very brave?"
Without realizing the danger at all, Bai Mo continued to speak arrogantly.
Everyone can talk big~ If you, Elysia, can mess around in this airport today, I have no problem with that!
At first, Elysia was slightly surprised, even a little startled. After all, if they were at home, Bai Mo would never dare to speak to her like this. Of course, there had been such moments before, but they were rare.
However, after thinking about it carefully, she understood why Bai Mo was like this.
Do you think Miss Pink Elf would be afraid to do anything rash in this airport?
Well, Elysia really didn’t dare to do anything inappropriate here, since she had a sense of shame.
However, if she used the flawless dome to cover the area, it might be possible to do some small moves...
"Lau, do you want to see it?"
With that thought, Elysia approached Bai Mo and secretly threw a pink ball of light into the distance.
As they waited for the ball of light to land, the area within a radius of more than fifty meters was completely covered by the pink dome.
"Let me see... Wait, Elysia, I'm warning you not to mess around... Ah!!! Elysia, you actually bit me!"
There was something wrong with this action, but by the time Bai Mo realized it, it was too late.
At this moment, Elysia was biting Bai Mo's index finger, and her hands were still kneading her face, as if in revenge.
Well, actually, she was just taking revenge!
"Isn’t this what you wanted to see, Lau?"
In response, Elysia smiled slightly and then put her face close to Bai Mo's neck.
"Me! You!"
Seeing this, Bai Mo wanted to struggle again, but Elysia opened her mouth and bit her neck the next second.
Then came the clavicle~
Commonly known as "growing strawberries."
................
Chapter 365 Durandal: What do you want to talk to me about?
"...Are you two done?"
At the First Airport, the resting place of the Immortal Blade Team, Rita spoke to Bai Mo and Elysia, who had just walked in.
As a qualified maid, Rita has strong insight.
She can clearly detect the inconsistencies in everyone. For example, right now, the little girl with silver hair has a slightly odd walking posture, and she keeps covering her neck from time to time, giving the impression that a child is trying to hide a tattoo from her parents—something she deliberately covers.
On the other hand, the girl with long pink hair, not to mention how beautiful her face is, even her arms, which have been holding the silver-haired girl, and the way she looks at her, reveals a subtle relationship between the two.
Well... since the two are in a relationship, then the silver-haired girl must be hiding what is called a "strawberry" mark—something only lovers do.
"Hmm? What's wrong, Rita?"
Feeling Rita's eyes on her, Durandal asked in confusion.
"It's okay, Master Durandal."
Rita smiled and replied elegantly.
Well... it’s too straightforward, though, it’s still a bit difficult.
The maid sighed silently in her heart and shook her head.
Let's get back to the point.
She is worthy of being Rita. Aside from the mishap, she is still very useful. She immediately analyzed the current situation on the field.
Of course, she won’t comment on the odd walking posture. After all, who can say for sure about these things?
In reality, Bai Mo's walking posture isn't caused by anything strange; it’s just that Elysia had sat on her legs for too long, causing them to go numb.
After all, she is Miss Pink Chubby! She is a little heavier!
"Ahem, anyway, sorry to have kept you waiting."
Seeing Rita’s disapproving look, Bai Mo coughed twice to change the subject.
Don't make me have a social death!!!
After all, there are at least a dozen "strawberries" planted on her collarbone and neck. If she’s seen, it will be a social death! And wicked woman Elysia didn’t let her use the power of creation to remove it, which is extremely hateful.
"Hey~"
Noticing the resentment emanating from Bai Mo, Elysia smiled and gently pinched her arm a few times, probably trying to calm her down.
"Don't do it again next time!"
Bai Mo couldn't do anything with Elysia, so she had to forgive her, whispering in her ear and blowing a breath as if in revenge.
What? You ask her why she is so bold again?
It’s because when Elysia pinched her arm just now, she accidentally pulled on her clothes, causing the collar to lose its support and exposing all the strawberries on her neck.
Looking at the "as expected" smile on Rita's face, Bai Mo knew she couldn’t hide it anymore, so she just let it show.
As long as I’m not embarrassed, others will be!
If you don’t believe it, look at Durandal, her face is so red you could boil a pot of water.
"Hi, long time no see~♪"
Elysia is such a typical example of social anxiety (social terrorist). Perhaps to adjust the atmosphere and prevent Bai Mo from feeling uncomfortable, she took the initiative to greet them.
"Hmm? This..."
Long time no see? Have you met each other before?
I really can’t recall any memory of the other party.
Rita decided to ask Elysia’s name from another angle and then think about it.
"Just call me Elysia. As the name suggests, I am a lovely girl!" Elysia said with a natural smile, without any exaggeration. "Hello, Miss Elysia, but if I guess correctly, this should be our first meeting."
Similarly, Rita couldn’t find anything inappropriate in Elysia’s words.
If another person had said that, she would have labeled them as narcissistic and shameless, but with Elysia, it didn’t feel out of place. It gave the impression of "It is true, it should be like this."
And it’s precisely because of this that Rita was sure she had never met Elysia.
After all, this kind of beautiful girl couldn’t have gone unnoticed.
"Alisa..." Unlike Rita, Durandal still had some impression of Elysia, having heard Otto talk about her. If she remembered correctly, this Elysia seems to be the so-called Herrscher of Origin, Herrscher of Human.
Thinking about this, Durandal looked at the two who were close together with a complicated expression.
Origin and Finality? She did not comment on this.
"Okay, okay, you have indeed seen Ellie, but last time, Ellie could only exist in my body for some reason, so it’s normal for you to feel unfamiliar."
"A hint: it was when we came to get the Jizo Mitama last time."
Seeing the puzzled looks of several people, Bai Mo quickly stood up to explain.
"I see, if Miss Bai said so, then Rita would understand."
Hearing this, Rita nodded. She had heard the name Elysia when the headquarters was attacked last time, but she hadn’t had much contact with her, so she didn’t have a strong impression.
Except for the man who was on fire.
"By the way, this is a little gift from me. I hope Miss Bai and Miss Elysia will accept it."
The time for self-introduction had passed. Rita took out the gift she had prepared earlier and handed it to Bai Mo.
"Is it a cookie? Thank you!"
Smelling the fragrance in the bag, Bai Mo immediately took one out and fed it to Elysia.
"It doesn’t matter. After all, this is also the duty of a maid. Besides, the two of you came from afar today for Lord Durandal, so Rita naturally can’t lose courtesy."
With a formal smile on her face, Rita said lightly.
"..."
Actually, the last sentence was the key point!
You’re too worthy of it! Dudu's number one fan!
"By the way, what do you want to talk to me about?"vSeeing the question return to herself, Durandal couldn't help but ask.
She didn’t get any information from Otto before, so she was still very curious.
----------
Chapter 366: Otto - A Bit Panicked
.........................................
One day ago, in the courtyard of Eden.
Because time was tight and he had to go to Schicksal to find Durandal tomorrow, Bai Mo quickly made a video call to Otto, intending to inform him of the situation and, by the way, prepare him. She wanted Otto to be ready to be poked with the Black Abyss White Flower once Durandal regained her memory.
The girl's murderous intent was evident!
"Hello, hello~ Is this Otto? Please answer if you hear me, please answer if you hear me."
As Bai Mo waited for the video to connect, she spoke lazily.
"Miss Aslaug, free to come to me today? Is there something important? Of course, if it's just a casual chat, I don't mind."
It must be said that after Otto returned from Coral Island, his demeanor had changed considerably.
He still looked like he deserved a beating though.
At the moment, he was leisurely sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, holding a game controller in his hand and staring at the screen.
Clearly, he had been playing Kallen Fantasy just before Bai Mo called, as he immediately hit the pause button.
"It's an important matter, concerning Durandal's memory. I want to retrieve it for her. I suppose you don’t have any objections, right?"
You definitely don't have any objections!
"Of course, my friend. But Miss Aslaug, did you do this for Siegfried?"
Not at all surprised by Bai Mo's actions, but still a little curious, Otto asked right away.
"There are several factors involved, but more importantly, I want to do this. After all, she will find out the truth sooner or later, right?"
"So, let's reunite father and daughter as soon as possible. And you should do some good deeds for yourself—maybe Kallen will beat you less after she’s resurrected."
Not wanting to waste more time talking with Otto, Bai Mo waved her hand in disdain.
"In that case, when do you want to come to Schicksal, Miss Aslaug?"
Once the topic shifted to Kallen, Otto became very sensitive. Bai Mo’s comment was reasonable, so he didn’t waste any more words and immediately asked about Bai Mo’s schedule.
"Tomorrow."
Bai Mo answered without hesitation.
"Okay, I’ll arrange for Durandal to meet you then."
Hurry up and put this matter on the agenda!
"That's even better. I have a kind reminder for you. Do you want to hear it?"
"Please speak, Miss Aslaug."
Otto’s expression became very serious.
"Prepare a few more soulium bodies, don't let Durandal kill you before you even see Kallen."
With a sly smile on her face, Bai Mo immediately hung up the call unilaterally.
"...Thanks for the reminder."
Otto was silent for a long time before he muttered these four words, but there was no one on the other end of the video.
It must be said, this was a very noteworthy point.
So, Otto didn’t care to continue Kallen Fantasy and immediately went to Amber's office to handle documents.
"Amber."
"What do you want, Overseer?"
Amber paused while stamping the documents.
"Go to the airport..."
.........................................
Back to the present.
"Indeed, we came to Schicksal this time because we have something important to discuss with you... Bianka."
Facing Durandal's inquiry, Bai Mo spoke truthfully. And in a sense, this was also Durandal's lifelong event.
"Discuss? What?"
Durandal really couldn’t understand what would be worth Bai Mo’s attention.
The power of the World Bubble? She doubted a Herrscher of Finality would be interested in this power.
Similarly, Rita standing beside them also looked on in confusion, hoping Bai Mo would get to the point.
"Of course, it's about your memory, Bianka-senpai. After all, if I remember correctly, you should have lost your memory when you were young."
Bai Mo said seriously, wrapping her fingers around the ends of her hair.
At the same time, she glanced at Rita intentionally or unintentionally. Rita simply smiled slightly and showed no big reaction on her face.
Boring~
Bai Mo had been curious about what kind of expression Rita would show when she talked about this matter.
After all, no matter what Sister Rita said, she was one of the only two people in the world who knew about Durandal's life experience in advance—besides Bai Mo.
"...Amnesia? That's right."
Durandal frowned upon hearing this. Following Bai Mo’s words, she seemed to return to the time when she was in the orphanage.
The only thing that concerned her was why Bai Mo knew such a private matter about her.
Logically, the person who should know about this would be Otto himself.
Did Otto tell her?
No, Otto didn’t seem like the type to share unnecessary things. If Otto had wanted to restore her memory, he would’ve acted much sooner.
There was no need for such a big fuss.
So there was only one truth: the other party might actually know something from before her memory loss.
But what her purpose was in bringing it up, Durandal had no idea yet.
But she was very intrigued by this nonetheless.
"If possible, can you tell me in detail?" After a long pause, Durandal spoke slowly.
"Of course, after all, we came here just to help Bianka-senpai regain your memory."
Seeing this, Bai Mo smiled.
"In that case, please move to the inner room."
At this point, Rita suddenly spoke.
She had prepared desserts and coffee long before and thought it would be better to change the location for the discussion.
Besides, she was very curious about how much Bai Mo, the former Valkyrie of Saint Freya Academy, knew about Durandal's past.
Since Bai Mo had come to Schicksal for this reason, it also implied that the Overseer had agreed to let Lord Durandal know her life story. As Durandal’s adjutant and friend, Rita felt it was very reasonable to go along with the situation a little.
What? Confidentiality agreement?
Please forgive her for not knowing this.
------------
367: Durandal: This person in the picture... Kiana is me?
"Is this a tea party between beautiful girls? The desserts and coffee taste great! I must praise you!"
Following Rita, they arrived at the dining table specially set up for guests.
It was filled with coffee and afternoon tea desserts such as macarons. Not shy about strangers, Elysia immediately tasted them and gave Rita her highest praise.
"Thank you, Miss Elysia."
Rita smiled and served cake and coffee to everyone present.
"Now, let's return to the topic and talk about your memory, Bianka-senpai."
Seeing that the time was right, Bai Mo said.
"I would like to hear more about it."
Durandal looked serious. She even wanted to know what her previous memories were like.
Bai Mo noticed Durandal's anxious expression and pondered before speaking. "Bianka-senpai, you should have heard of Cecilia, right?"
"The previous user of the Black Abyss White Flower, the former strongest S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, and also the Saint of the Schariac family. I admire her very much."
Faced with Bai Mo's sudden question, although Durandal was confused, she still answered truthfully.
Could Cecilia be related to her memory?
Durandal didn’t think so.
After all, according to Schicksal's records, this saint—who deserved the respect of all—had already perished with the Second Herrscher during the Second Eruption.
"......"
Good grief, you silly goose didn't mention that Cecilia was Siegfried’s wife!
"So, does this have anything to do with my lost memory?" Durandal asked again.
"It is related, and very much so. This also involves Siegfried," Bai Mo nodded solemnly.
"Siegfried..."
The man rumored to have touched all the Valkyries' butts in Schicksal? Cecilia's husband?
"Are you confused about why I suddenly mentioned these two names?" Bai Mo smiled.
"Yeah."
"Don't worry, you'll understand soon, Bianka-senpai." Bai Mo kept a secret for a while before adding, "Of course, before that, can I ask you a question?"
"You may," Durandal said, showing great patience.
"Bianka-senpai, you should know why Siegfried defected from Schicksal back then, right?"
"......"
At Bai Mo's question, Durandal couldn’t answer immediately. After all, there were many versions of this story circulating in Schicksal, so she wasn’t sure which one to say.
"There are many versions circulating in Schicksal, but if I had to guess, maybe the one about saving people is the truest."
Unexpectedly, it was Rita who spoke at this time.
"Yeah! My beautiful girl intuition tells me that's the answer!" Elysia raised her hand and spoke obediently.
"Save people?"
Durandal scratched her hair in confusion.
Was this topic a bit too far-fetched? Shouldn’t it be about my memory?
"Miss Rita guessed correctly. The real reason Siegfried defected from Schicksal was that he wanted to rescue his daughter, Kiana Kaslana, from Otto." After looking at Rita meaningfully, Bai Mo smiled and said.
"But what do these... have to do with me?"
Durandal really couldn’t help herself. After all, she couldn't possibly be Kiana Kaslana, could she?
Obviously, Kiana Kaslana was alive and well, studying at St. Freya Academy.
In response, Bai Mo smiled mysteriously, then brewed her emotions before saying. "Hojo... ahem, Bianka Durandal Ataegina! Because you are Kiana Kaslana!"
Well, in truth, she still couldn't grasp the essence of a certain Kami. In terms of actions or tone, they were worlds apart.
But despite that, her words were very impactful on Durandal.
"This is impossible!"
Durandal almost instinctively protested. How could such a shocking revelation happen to her?
Let’s not even mention the possibility. The Kiana who was studying at St. Freya Academy couldn’t be a fake, could she?
It was a normal reaction. Seeing this, Bai Mo didn't rush to explain, but continued telling Durandal the truth.
"The Second Eruption, the strongest S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, Cecilia Schariac—her real cause of death was not as rumored. She did not perish together with Sirin. The truth was the opposite: she died because Otto dropped a Honkai energy fission bomb into the center of the battlefield, which led to both her and the Second Herrscher, Sirin, perishing."
Just hearing this first sentence, Durandal frowned.
From her understanding of Otto, this was indeed something he could do. But, before getting the whole truth, she chose to continue listening.
"It was because of this that Siegfried became disillusioned with Schicksal and Otto. After learning the truth, he planned to take his daughter away from Schicksal, not wanting his child with Cecilia to be killed."
"But unfortunately, Otto had already taken action against Kiana by this time. He used her DNA, the Second Herrscher Sirin’s DNA, and the Herrscher of the Void Core to create a clone named K-423, which looked exactly like Kiana."
"So, no surprise at all, the clone was discovered by Siegfried, who was rushing to take Kiana away. He planned to take the clone and escape from Schicksal together."
"Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last long. Siegfried’s entire plan had actually been known by Otto long before, so the moment they left Schicksal, Otto sent a pursuit team to stop them. The end result was that, although Siegfried managed to escape, he lost Kiana and only managed to take K-423."
After saying this, Bai Mo shook her head and sighed, then looked back at Durandal.
The truth was often cruel, and the next part was even more so.
"As for the real Kiana, she was struck on the head by a flying machine and fell several thousand meters onto a snowy mountain. Fortunately, she didn’t die. Later, Valkyrie Ragnar brought her back to the headquarters for treatment. Otto was the attending physician and stimulated her potential. Unfortunately, although Kiana didn’t die, she lost all of her previous memories."
"And because of the stimulation, her hair changed from silver to golden curls."
Bai Mo didn’t continue speaking at this point.
After all, she had already clarified that Durandal was Kiana, so now it was just a bit of explanation and supplementary details.
----------
Chapter 368: Durandal: Please Restore My Memory for Me
"So, my real identity is actually the daughter of Ms. Cecilia and Mr. Siegfried, Kiana Kaslana, and what you just said is my experience before I lost my memory, right?"
Durandal covered her forehead, confirming over and over again.
Although this sounded a bit magical, for some reason, she always felt that it was so real, without any falsehood.
"Yes, this is the story. Whether you believe me or not, Bianka-senpai, these are the truths."
Five slender fingers tapped the table rhythmically, and Bai Mo held her chin with one hand, speaking very seriously.
Now, all she needed to do was wait and see if Durandal could accept this truth.
As soon as she showed any intent to accept it, Bai Mo would use the power of the Herrscher of Sentience to restore all the memories Durandal had lost in the past.
Of course, there was another way: to let Durandal enter the stigmata space belonging to the Kaslanas and let her find her memory on her own. Unfortunately, Durandal didn’t seem to have the qualification for that at the moment, so they would have to rely on external forces.
"Lord Durandal, no matter what choice you make, Rita will support you."
Looking at Durandal’s solemn face and furrowed brows, Rita couldn't help but speak up.
"Lovely girl, be brave and move forward! Explore your past. Maybe it will be a beautiful memory!"
Similarly, Elysia also encouraged her with a smile.
For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on Durandal, awaiting her decision.
Would she accept the memory and face her true self? Or would she continue to live as Bianka Durandal Ataegina?
After all, the memories she had lost represented her birth, and from there, it was her new life. If Durandal didn’t want to accept this memory, Bai Mo wouldn’t force her, but Siegfried might be upset for a while.
Would Kiana lose a sister? Probably.
But those were just guesses. Bai Mo still believed Durandal would face her past.
"I..."
After a long pause, Durandal raised her head and glanced at everyone with a complicated expression.
Should she accept this memory? Accept that she was once the proof of Kiana Kaslana’s life?
If she accepted it, what would the other Kiana Kaslana think? After all, no matter what, she was no longer "her."
The strongest Valkyrie, once filled with unlimited glory on the battlefield and even daring to face the Herrscher, was now in a dilemma when faced with this choice.
Seeing Durandal shake her head and nod in confusion, Bai Mo understood what she was worried about. As a Herrscher of Sentience, she was particularly sensitive to such emotions and thoughts.
"I think you should take a look at this."
Sometimes, it was best to lend a proper hand. Bai Mo said as she took out a photo from her inner pocket.
The photo showed Kiana, No, Durandal, and Siegfried in an amusement park. The father and daughter were holding hands and smiling, with a huge Homu doll next to them.
"This is..."
"Your photo with Siegfried. I copied it from him the last time I saw him."
(It was actually constructed from memory~)
"..."
Durandal took the photo from Bai Mo's hand. For some reason, the moment her fingers touched the photo, she felt a strange sensation she'd never experienced before.
It felt as if there were a voice in her heart telling her, "That's you, the former you, and your father."
"But I am no longer her after all..."
Durandal held the photo with both hands, lowered her head, and murmured to herself.
At this point, Durandal already believed that what Bai Mo had said was true. After all, the sensation in her heart couldn't be faked.
"Maybe you can't be considered 'her,' but 'she' is still you, right?"
"After all, whether it is Kiana Kaslana or Bianka Durandal Ataegina, they are the same individual." Bai Mo spoke gently.
"What about the other Kiana? What would she think?"
At this point, Durandal asked the question that concerned her most.
"Well... maybe if you wanted to recall your previous memories, Bianka-senpai, you might not ask this."
Things had developed to this point. Since Durandal could ask this question, it meant she had already accepted her true identity in her heart. Next, as long as her doubts were answered, this matter could be perfectly concluded.
"Why?"
"The reason is simple. When you first saw Kiana, Bianka-senpai, you told Siegfried that you wanted her to be your sister."
Of course, this reason might seem a bit far-fetched, but the innocent, childish words of a child perfectly expressed her affection for K-423 at that time.
Just like what Siegfried said in the original plot, the sister who inherited your name would never disappoint you.
Although Kiana had not grown up yet...
"Sister..." Durandal muttered those two words.
For some reason, her mood shifted subtly. Of course, this wasn’t an emotion of hatred. On the contrary, it was an impulse similar to the desire for family affection and joy.
Bai Mo, standing by, was overjoyed at Durandal’s reaction. Even Rita and Elysia sighed in relief.
"That's right, so don't worry about Kiana, Bianka-senpai. She is as strong as you used to be. And for Kiana, if she knew she had a sister, she would be so happy."
Well, the premise is that Durandal doesn't drag her to train all day long!
"She... also lost her memory?"
Durandal keenly noticed this.
After all, if she had wanted to recognize the other person as her sister when she was a child, then the other person shouldn’t have forgotten her.
So why did Bai Mo say she didn't know just now?
"That's right, Kiana once lost all her memories before the age of eight, but that's not a problem. I'll find a way to solve it."
I can do anything!
Bai Mo, the Herrscher of Sentience, said so!
"Then please help me find my previous memories."
After making up her mind, Durandal set aside her hesitation and confusion and said very seriously.
After all, this was her wish—to find her true memory and face her true self.
Everyone has the right to desire family affection, and she was no exception.
"No problem!"
Bai Mo smiled, then stood up and turned toward Durandal.
Next! It’s time to reverse all creation!
------
Chapter 369 Bai Mo: Hi, how do you feel~♪
So now, my marriage to Kiana can finally be settled!
I treated Siegfried's arm, resurrected Cecilia, solved Sirin's consciousness for Kiana, and helped Durandal recover her memory.
After counting all these things, your Kaslana family owes us a lot! (Although there are still two things left undone~)
Thinking of this, Bai Mo smiled with a bit of a mean person's success, but at the same time, her hands were not idle.
The power representing Sentience activated instantly, and Bai Mo gently placed her hand behind Durandal's head.
The next second, the girl closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Of course, falling asleep here only means sleep. The Power of Setience only plays a guiding role. The one who truly needs to work hard is Durandal herself.
Maybe recalling all of this in a dream would be a good idea, so Bai Mo chose to do this.
After all, it was the safest way~
"Don't worry, she just fell asleep, and she'll wake up soon."
Looking at Rita's worried eyes, Bai Mo sat back in her seat and explained.
"Thank you, Miss Aslaug."
As a friend of Durandal, Rita thanked Bai Mo.
She was not worried that Bai Mo would take the opportunity to harm Durandal. After all, even if Bai Mo wanted to attack them, she wouldn't need this little move. Additionally, since the World Serpent and Schicksal had formed an alliance and were now on the same path to fight against the collapse, the other party had no reason to do anything harmful that wouldn't benefit themselves. Rita saw this very clearly.
"Don't thank me. After all, she will know the truth sooner or later, right? And I believe that even if I don't tell her, Miss Rita, you will tell her in person one day."
In response, Bai Mo drank a cup of coffee slowly, then smiled at Rita.
"But if that happens, I'm afraid the Overseer will have a headache for a long time."
Rita did not answer this question, but shifted the topic to Otto.
As a friend, she really wanted Durandal to beat Otto to vent her anger, but as a Valkyrie of Schicksal... Sorry, the vice-captain of the Immortal Blade can't beat the captain.
This should be common sense. (Laughs)
"It's okay, your Overseer is tough, and his steel body is dead, so it's fine to let Durandal kill him a few times to vent her anger."
A woman who says one thing and means another...
Rita, are you really be worried about Otto?
In response, Bai Mo directly waved her hand and said nonchalantly.
"This..." As expected, Rita's expression showed a hint of hesitation, but she did not refute Bai Mo's words.
"Sister Rita, are you worried that killing Otto will be troublesome? Don't worry, I'll give her a little help! It will be easy!"
Seeing this, Bai Mo took advantage of the moment and smiled again. "Next, please look forward to the soulium radar tracker made by the genius Vill-V!" (Otto: You are such a kind man!)
After listening to Bai Mo's outrageous remarks, Rita stopped talking completely. She found a seat and sat down, quietly staying by Durandal's side, waiting for her to wake up.
"..."
Is she showing off?
But I am definitely not a single dog!
Elysia! Attack!
Leaning back, Bai Mo rested her head on Elysia's thigh.
Hmm~ It's still the familiar touch, soft with a hint of fragrance, it's really wonderful, wonderful.
"Lau did a great job just now! Praise you!"
Elysia lifted her hair and smiled as she looked down.
"No, no, give me some substantial rewards!"
Bai Mo said coquettishly.
"Then... a kiss?"
Elysia put her index finger on her cherry lips and said playfully.
As a result, just when she was about to lower her head, Bai Mo stopped her with one hand.
"Hmm? Lau is not satisfied with this reward?" Elysia's expression was a little surprised, but she quickly returned to normal, then leaned close to Bai Mo's ear, "Bad things, this can only be done after we go home~♪"
"......"
How can a bad woman like you insult my innocence like this! What do you mean bad things can only be done after we go home!
Do I look like a woman whose head is full of yellow garbage!
Bai Mo was filled with righteous indignation, pouting her lips and looking at Elysia shyly.
When Elysia said this just now, she keenly noticed that Rita's feet under the table had trembled, obviously frightened by such a bold statement.
For no reason, she was harmed by public opinion!
"Hmm? Is Lau shy~♪"
"No! I just wanted to plant a strawberry on your neck just now!"
"Oh, I didn't expect Lau to still care about this matter~♪" Elysia said, then pulled down her collar, "Okay~"
She didn't let Bai Mo plant strawberries for her before, but Elysia was a little willful. After all, if possible, she actually wanted to try this novel feeling.
"No~ We have to wait until we get home to do bad things! Ellie, I am also very troubled by your words~♪"
You want me to plant strawberries, so I plant them now? Wouldn't that make me look very embarrassed?
Looking at Elysia's expectant look with her eyes closed, Bai Mo immediately became naughty again.
Well, actually, there were people here, so she couldn't let go. After all, if the occasion allowed, who would refuse Elysia!
"It seems that you have also learned bad things, Lau!"
Elysia retaliated by poking Bai Mo's face with two slender fingers.
"Wow... it doesn't look like you learned it from me." Bai Mo replied vaguely.
"Lau, you are not obedient."
"Please! I'm very brave!"
Bai Mo struggled to sit up and looked at Elysia with a look that said you are kidding.
Of course, the real reason she sat up was because Durandal had woken up.
Just then, she noticed that the little Power of Sentience she had exerted on Durandal had dissipated.
Therefore, it was for this reason that Elysia stopped teasing Bai Mo. After all, business was more important now.
"Are you awake? The operation was successful. You are now a qualified girl!"
"You!"
After waking up, Durandal was still a little dazed.
After hearing Bai Mo's words, Durandal subconsciously wanted to say something, but she soon realized that she was a girl, so she looked at Bai Mo with a very resentful expression.
Likewise, Rita also looked over.
"Hahaha, it's just a joke, let's start over again." Bai Mo smiled indifferently, then waved her hand and said, "Hi, how do you feel~♪"
"Thank you, I remember everything."
-------
Chapter 370: Durandal Preparing to Go to St. Freya Academy
After waking up, Durandal found that many memories had returned to her mind—precious memories she had forgotten. Whether it was Siegfried, Cecilia, her nominal aunt, or her long-lost sister, who had inherited her name, all of them came back to her.
Durandal thought a lot after waking up—or rather, she had reacquainted herself with her past self in that dream.
She would not take up the name "Kiana" again, because now she was called Bianka Durandal Atagina, and she was beginning a new life. The past was only the past, and people had to look forward.
Of course, this didn't mean she would abandon everything about her former self, as Kiana was still a part of her. Now, she was just starting a new chapter in her life.
Siegfried was still her father, and Cecilia was still her mother, and that would never change.
Perhaps now her family had gained a new member—her sister, whom she had always longed to recognize as a child.
Regarding this, Durandal had accepted it in her heart.
In that dream, she had seen not only her own life but also all the memories of Siegfried wandering alone with Kiana after her memory loss.
Siegfried hadn’t initially given the name "Kiana" to the individual named K423. However, in the days that followed, their bond deepened, and through continuous recognition, she came to inherit the name.
Durandal understood this. After all, even after finding her true memories, she had to admit it was a miracle that she was still alive.
That fall from thousands of meters high… Even a Herrscher falling from such a height wouldn’t guarantee they would be unharmed, let alone a child like she had been at the time. It was only natural that Siegfried thought she had died then.
"Under the Power of Sentience, the brain will inevitably be a little tired, so… Bianka-senpai, you may want to take a break."
Noticing that Durandal had suddenly stopped speaking, Bai Mo spoke up.
"If you need it, Lady Durandal, Rita can go and tidy up the room for you."
"It's okay. I was just digesting that part of the memory. It's nothing serious."
Durandal shook her head, signaling that they needn’t worry.
However, Rita still placed her hand on Durandal’s temple and began massaging gently.
"It's good that you're okay, but Bianka-senpai, what are your plans for the future?"
Ignoring the previous conversation, Bai Mo asked the question she was most concerned about.
"Plans?"
Durandal tilted her head in confusion, not understanding what Bai Mo meant.
"Yes, Bianka. After recovering your memories, can you still stay with Otto like before?"
"This…"
Durandal hesitated. Bai Mo was right—after regaining her lost memories, it was no longer appropriate for her to stay with Otto.
Perhaps her duty as a Valkyrie could keep her in check, but if those external factors were removed, and she were to rely solely on her personal will, Durandal would want nothing more than to punch Otto in the face and then poke a few holes in him with the Black Abyss White Flower.
After all, the man responsible for Cecilia's death and for preventing their family from reuniting was Otto Apocalypse, the Archbishop of Schicksal.
"Does Miss Aslaug want Lord Durandal to escape from Schicksal?"
This was indeed a question worth considering. However, if it were up to her, Rita would be reluctant to part with Durandal.
"Hmm? I didn’t say that!"
Bai Mo waved her hand dismissively, then shared her thoughts. "But if you really don’t want to stay with Otto anymore, why don’t you consider St. Freya Academy?"
St. Freya Academy is also part of Schicksal! There’s no problem with it!
"Look, Bianka, if you go to St. Freya Academy, you don't have to give
up your identity as a Valkyrie and can still fight for humanity. Besides, your aunt and sister are there."
Bai Mo said, counting on her fingers as if she were a salesperson.
Durandal's heart stirred as she listened. She realized that St. Freya Academy would indeed be a great place to go.
"Siegfried is still waiting for you there. Before I came, I told him your true identity. We also plan to resolve Sirin’s consciousness in Kiana's body in two days and help her recover her memory."
Of course, the previous sentence was a lie. Before coming, Bai Mo wasn’t sure whether Durandal would accept the memory recovery, let alone take her to St. Freya Academy. She couldn’t give Siegfried any guarantees regarding that matter.
But now it was different. Perhaps this surprise could really work.
"So, why doesn't Bianka-senpai take this opportunity to reunite with them? Of course, if Miss Rita wants to go, she can ask Otto to arrange for an assistant teacher for you."
With that, Bai Mo had said everything she could to clear up the doubts and concerns in their minds.
Rita was excited, while Durandal fell into deep thought once again.
Although she had regained her memories, the idea of seeing Siegfried, Kiana, and Theresa all of a sudden still made her feel a little uneasy.
But this was also a good opportunity, and Durandal knew this well.
She lowered her head and began thinking deeply.
Seeing this, Bai Mo decided to play her trump card. After all, how could she let the silly goose slip away?
With this move, the silly goose would surely fail!
"Mrs. Cecilia will also go to St. Freya Academy in the future. I can guarantee that."
This move would surely work!
Bai Mo smiled calmly.
"I’ll go!"
Without hesitation, Durandal agreed on the spot after hearing Bai Mo mention Cecilia.
She really had no resistance to this idea.
And it had to be said that she had forgotten that her mother could be resurrected, otherwise, she would never have hesitated.
"Then let's make it a deal?"
"It’s a deal!"
Durandal’s eyes sparkled with desire.
"???"
However, compared to the two who knew the truth, Rita was left utterly confused.
What? Cecilia? Lord Durandal's mother? Going to St. Freya Academy?
How can a dead person go to St. Freya Academy?
What kind of strange place is this? Or is it some Far Eastern demon cave?
