Himeko's Third-Rate Romance Plot Definitely Won't Become Reality... Probably

That's what makes it so annoying.

However, it's best not to show this attitude in front of Lady Reanna.

... Speaking of which, what is the relationship between Lady Reanna and the Alliance Leader?

"Um... Lady Reanna, you and the Alliance Leader...?"

Ragna blurted it out on his own, but then regretted it a little.

"Me and the Alliance Leader?"

A smile flickered in Reanna's turquoise eyes.

"What do you think my relationship is with the Alliance Leader?"

"Ahem... I apologize for being so forward." Ragna somewhat awkwardly.

"Not at all, such a small question is hardly presumptuous."

Reanna smiled slightly.

"My relationship with the Alliance Leader... could it be described as a fusion of spirit and body?"

"Huh... ah?"

Wait, wait, wait, isn't this word a bit ominous?

Although Ragna is already twenty-six or twenty-seven, she is undoubtedly a complete novice when it comes to relationships—well, the whole team is.

"Why are you so surprised? Haven't you seen what it was like when the Alliance Leader possessed me?"

"Ah... that's true."

Ragna was unsure what expression to make.

What about the physical union of body and soul...?

"So, you and the Alliance Leader are soulmates... or something like that?"

To be honest, this is the first time Ragna has ever seen a physical fusion of body and soul.

"Haha... this statement really seems very easy to misunderstand."

Reanna couldn't help but laugh at the strange expression on Ragna's face.

"But if we're talking about soulmates, I'm not even in the running... well, though what those kids really seek is the fusion of flesh and flesh."

Reanna thought of the factions within her organization that had split over Liu Bai... It was truly absurd that the reason for the factional conflict within an organization was such a nonsensical one.

However, Reanna herself was happy to see this happen, after all, such a "harmonious" faction is a rare sight in human history.

"If I had to describe my relationship with the Alliance Leader... perhaps it would be simply one of following him?"

"Maybe?" Ragna, somewhat puzzled.

"After all, some things are hard to explain in a few words... If you really can't understand, you can just say that my relationship with the Alliance Leader is that of soulmates. I don't actually dislike that kind of statement."

"..." This kind of statement is really hard to accept.

"Alright, let's put this topic of young people behind us." Reanna looked at Ragna with a half-smile, as if she could see through Ragna thoughts. "Headquarters has developed a batch of equipment suitable for Valkyrie, which just arrived. Let the team members come and try it out."

"Yes, sir." Ragna saluted.

Chapter 211 Himeko's low-class romance storyline will definitely not become a reality... probably

"No matter how many times I wear it, I always feel a chill down there..."

Himeko, who was making breakfast in the kitchen, adjusted the hem of her cheongsam.

However, this cannot hide Himeko's exquisite and sexy long legs at all.

"Especially during the transition from spring to summer."

Himeko sighed and glanced at Liu Bai.

"I really don't understand why you like this kind of clothing."

Okay, to be honest, it's actually possible to understand it.

But you can't admit to something like that, okay?

"Then let's wear the maid outfit. Isn't that one a bit thicker?"

Liu Bai looked at the pleasing scene before him without paying any attention.

The Valkyrie was complaining of being cold inside the house; anyone who believes that is out of their mind.

"Isn't it colder underneath that set?"

Himeko was filled with resentment.

A cheongsam should at least have a longer hem, unlike the short skirt of a maid outfit...

"Why did I buy those shameless clothes back then?"

The maid outfit with nothing underneath... Even disregarding the issue of going commando, Himeko wouldn't dare wear it in front of others.

— Cosplay is indeed something that requires courage.

At most, she only dared to let Liu Bai see the outside; she still had to wear underwear underneath.

After all... well, it was a girl's slightly awkward reserve.

"Indeed, only 60 points."

Liu Bai echoed.

A maid outfit without a bra isn't very attractive.

Himeko is really not as good as Ragna and Rita when it comes to maid outfits... although this is not surprising at all.

"... Don't give me random scores, you bastard!"

Himeko said in an annoyed tone.

She was okay with cheongsams, but she really couldn't get used to the chilly feeling that short skirts gave her lower body.

She's still a very reserved young girl, okay?

... That's truly shameless.

Himeko, now 26, has gradually started to internally criticize herself.

Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the middle... it can't be said that nothing happened.

However, the problem is that almost everything that happens is related to Anti-Entropy.

Alright, what's the point of fighting? It's like fighting with your left hand against your right? Let's give up, everyone just sit down and divide the loot.

Liu Bai had only glanced at them from afar before, but now Xing and Seele, those two girls, have also begun to operate within Anti-Entropy as commanders of the mecha force.

And for various reasons... well, mainly because Liu Bai changed too many things.

Therefore, the Moonlight Throne was not sent to the Far East, and the three main characters are still leisurely enjoying their campus life and the upcoming final exams.

However, this also meant that the Hyperion didn't get to use the technology from the Moonlight Throne —but that's a minor issue.

"By the way, what do you think are the chances that Kiana will pass her final exams this year?"

While eating the breakfast she had made, Himeko chatted with Liu Bai about this rather troublesome problem.

"Hmm...5%?"

Liu Bai felt a headache coming on whenever he thought about Kiana's condition.

"Huh... where did this 5% come from?"

Although it's inappropriate for a teacher to say that, Himeko had absolutely no confidence in Kiana's learning attitude.

"Perhaps Mei agreed to help her cheat?" Liu Bai said with a smile.

Maybe it's a ghost.

Unless Kiana bewitches Mei and completely fools Mei, how can she expect Mei to help her cheat?

Just kidding.

Mei has already done more than enough by wasting her own time helping Kiana with her studies during finals.

"You might as well just say it's over."

Himeko was speechless upon hearing this possibility.

"As a teacher, you have to give your students some expectations," Liu Bai sighed.

"Yes, give a student who has known you for six years and taught you for four years and still thinks you are AI a little hope."

Himeko was genuinely gloating when she talked about it.

For four whole years, Kiana had no idea that she was actually communicating with a "living person".

"That girl was basically using me as a dumping ground."

Speaking of this, Liu Bai really couldn't refute it.

And because Kiana took out the trash... well, actually she whispered too much, Liu Bai is no longer able to step forward and remind her about this.

After all, Kiana's interpersonal relationships are just average, and her personality is a bit awkward. Although the quality of her friends is very high, she can only confide her complaints to Liu Bai, her AI.

From trivial things like the cafeteria food being unpalatable, Theresa secretly wearing shoe lifts during her period, wanting to see her dad, Mei smiling at me today; to major issues like why I'm bleeding down there and what to do when I'm bleeding...

Well, while it's hard to say her real age, Kiana's biological age is still very young.

So aside from more serious physiological questions, Liu Bai generally pretended not to hear them...

So there's a reason why Liu Bai jokingly said Kiana used him as a dumping ground.

"Hmm... Doesn't this mean that child is very dependent on you? That's a good thing." Himeko said casually. "That child just has a slow mind. After all these years, he should be used to it by now."

"Yes... I'm used to it."

Kiana during this period was truly exhausting, but of course, her vivacity was also enviable.

"Who do you think was more lively back then, me or Kiana?" Himeko suddenly thought of this question.

"You... right?"

This question startled Liu Bai for a moment, and he answered somewhat hesitantly.

"Although you're a bit less proactive, you were incredibly outgoing back in the day."

"... So familiar with me?" Himeko hadn't expected that she would have such an impression of Liu Bai from back then.

But thinking about it... it seems like I became familiar with Liu Bai in just one day.

But then again...

What does "slightly weaker in action" mean?

Himeko stated that she is the kind of person who would take a plane across state lines over the weekend just because of a news story about aliens.

"It means exactly what it says."

Liu Bai was too lazy to explain further.

Kiana from the original timeline traveled all the way from Europe to the Far East by herself, okay?

This level of action is off the charts...

"I actually feel that girl has become quite outgoing now." Himeko didn't dwell on such a small matter, and a half-smile appeared on her face. "Back then, she was a little wildcat who didn't trust anyone... She's really been completely 'tamed'."

Liu Bai declined to comment.

"Oh... right, don't you dare have any bad intentions towards that girl."

Himeko suddenly thought of something.

"No matter what, he's an idiot—okay, I shouldn't say that about my student, but you get the gist of it."

"Try to stop your mind from wandering around lately." Liu Bai was getting a little fed up with Himeko's increasingly erratic thinking.

"Because I think this setting is so classic—a naive girl discovers that the flat-chested teacher she's always confided in is actually a handsome guy," Himeko said matter-of-factly, lying on the sofa after eating and drinking her fill.

"... Huh?" Liu Bai's mind went blank for a moment.
