Good student Wendy tried hard to control the expression on her face that was about to Honkai.

"Just think of it as taking care of a patient," Himeko tried to say casually.

"..." Wendy really wanted to say that, judging from your vital signs alone, you are perfectly healthy.

Mr. Edison, please come back and take care of Himeko. Himeko! If you don't do something about it, Himeko will become a useless person!

"By the way, how long will it be before Mr. Edison returns from this business trip?"

"I don't know. Who knows how long those big shots will be on a business trip? They can make millions per minute."

Himeko rolled over and found a more comfortable position.

This teacher is beyond saving.

Wendy sighed, picked up her broom, and prepared to leave, but before she could even step out the door, Wendy communicator rang.

"A text message from Edison?"

"Huh?" Himeko perked up slightly upon hearing this and looked up. "What do you want?"

"Let me team up with Senior Welt to defeat another Herrscher. Ah, Senior Welt's communication arrived too. He said he's downstairs."

"Slay the Herrscher?" Himeko's eyes flashed with a sharp light. She sat up in bed and began to dress. "You're being sent? What kind of nonsense is this?"

"Two against one shouldn't be too dangerous, right?" Wendy smiled optimistically.

"Don't plant a flag behind you."

After getting dressed, Himeko Wendy's head.

"You said he's downstairs? Let's go ask him first."

Chapter 339 Welt: I'm going to throw a rat dropping into the pot now.

"Have you eaten, Senior Welt?"

Himeko and Wendy came downstairs and greeted Welt familiarly.

Okay, actually these two aren't that close, but they do have some kind of kinship.

For example, when she was in college, her godson was her teacher.

For example, her father's death was inextricably linked to this person.

"Um... Himeko."

Welt noticed that the person who arrived seemed a little stiff.

Although Welt felt regret over Murata Ryusuke's death, and felt no remorse, Welt still felt somewhat guilty in front of Ryusuke's daughter.

"Good morning... oh no, good afternoon."

"Senior, are you stiff?" Himeko looked Welt up and down.

How could he not be stiff? Besides thinking of Murata Ryusuke from more than ten years ago, Welt also thought of that little mess from this morning.

If that's the case, then this one could be considered a potential sister-in-law... Welt Himeko distanced himself from Himeko.

"?" Himeko looked at Welt with confusion.

Judging from Himeko's expression, Welt knew that none of the scientists at his Anti-Entropy team had informed the retired Valkyrie.

Hmm... that really suits the personality of those older women. Maybe they didn't even inform Himeko, let alone Planck.

How heartless!

Welt was a staunch supporter of the Liu Bai x Einstein movement.

So after Rita's incident this morning, apart from the other parties involved, those who shipped the couple were particularly unhappy.

I've been shipping this Lao Tzu for fifty or sixty years, and you, Rita, suddenly show up and steal it away? If we weren't all rational people and now that we're all on the same side, he probably would have already made his move.

Thinking of this, Welt immediately looked at Himeko in front of him.

Well... anyway, things are already a complete mess around my older brother, so if I throw another bad apple into the mix... I doubt either the Doctor or Brother Liu Bai would mind, right?

Well, Welt's assessment of Himeko's combat ability is that she's a "rotten apple".

That's all there is to it. In Welt's memory, this thing is just a copy of Tesla, yeah, a weakling.

You're a normal woman, and you've been by Liu Bai 'Liu Bai side for over ten years and still can't keep him in check. What else could you be but a weakling?

Welt thought that with his doctor's fighting ability, if he gave her more than ten years, she would probably have turned Liu Bai into a henpecked husband.

Don't underestimate Einstein's fighting spirit.

Welt hadn't considered that Himeko's problem was similar to Mei's and Otto's —they were too familiar with each other to make a move.

That's completely different from Tesla's weak combat capabilities.

"Senior Welt, what kind of look is that?"

Himeko inexplicably sensed a hint of contempt in the gaze of the person in front of her—you've gone too far!

"It's nothing." Welt looked Himeko over again.

Hmm, in the future, Anti-Entropy could create a category called "Red-haired Minion" or "Red-haired Loser".

"I have some really exciting news about Brother Liu Bai, do you want to hear it?"

"Do you think I should listen?" Himeko narrowed her eyes, sensing an inexplicable atmosphere.

"Rita, Liu Bai, a lone man and a lone woman, alright, Himeko, you can let your imagination run wild."

Welt, not wanting to waste time with Himeko, cut to the chase.

"--ha?"

"Ehhhhhhh?!"

Himeko and Wendy both exclaimed in disbelief.

"That girl Rita... come to think of it carefully, she really has grown into a vixen."

Himeko rested her chin on her hand, her expression unpredictable.

"Fox... fox... seductress?" Wendy blushed. "Has Brother Liu Bai been deceived by a bad woman?"

Wendy got along very well with the orphanage trio, so she used the same way they addressed Liu Bai.

"... She's not exactly a bad woman—maybe."

Himeko thought to herself, feeling quite conflicted.

Rita's conditions are indeed excellent; she can fight on the battlefield and cook in the kitchen, and she doesn't have any bad habits like smoking or drinking.

The only downside is that she can be a bit hypocritical at times? But in the adult world, that's called being shrewd, and this hypocrisy is directed at outsiders; to her family, she's a perfectly reliable maid.

Himeko thought for a moment and suddenly realized something—it seemed that she couldn't beat Rita in terms of resources?

After all, alcoholism and a middle-aged man's appearance are hardly virtues...

How did I go from being a top student to becoming this pathetic?

Himeko fell into deep thought.

It was definitely the captain and the others' fault!

Himeko completely absolved herself of any blame.

Ah... wait a minute.

Himeko suddenly thought of something.

"Are they destined for Schicksal?"

"Schicksal." Welt took two steps back slightly to prevent Himeko from suddenly going berserk.

"Captain Ragna and the others are here too?"

"Your entire squad is here," Welt thoughtfully added.

Himeko's face darkened.

These bastards... they actually cheated on me...

"Then... Seele and Sister Bronya are here too?"

Wendy also raised her hand and asked.

She realized that no one had informed her—what a fake sisterhood!

"Ah..." Welt glanced at the girl, "We have a mission... Although there's no rush right now, but then there's Schicksal ..."

Wendy is truly at odds with Schicksal, while Welt doesn't care whether she goes or not. After all, the action list was decided by Liu Bai and several other big shots, so her going won't take up much time.

Welt was worried that if this girl went to Schicksal, her "old illness" would relapse and she would go berserk again—after all, this girl really had a grudge against Schicksal.

Well, there are actually quite a few people who have a grudge against Schicksal, or rather, there are very few who don't. For example, his godson Yang has a serious grudge against Otto for killing his father. However, Yang is a person who has come to terms with things and understands the greater good. He has let bygones be bygones. Although he cannot publicly announce a reconciliation, he can still ignore Otto under the pretext of official business.

Moreover, Otto himself had no intention of shirking responsibility; on the contrary, he was prepared to take it all on. Therefore, the few people in Schicksal who had a grudge against Otto either considered Otto's attitude or Liu Bai's sake and did not have any intention of causing trouble.

However, Wendy might not be able to control her emotions, and Welt is quite worried about Wendy safety if she goes berserk.

—Yes, I'm worried about Wendy's safety.

With the lineup at Schicksal Headquarters, even a peak Sirin from over a decade ago would be instantly defeated if she charged in, let alone Wendy, who couldn't even defeat an entire Titan Legion...

It's not shameful to find fault; what's shameful is going in vertically and coming out horizontally.

"Schicksal ..." Wendy muttered to herself, deciding not to go back for the time being.

She was also afraid of losing control of herself—of losing control of herself and giving her three good older sisters a good beating—even though she might not be able to beat them.

"I have to go." Himeko's smile Honkai. "Rita aside, those bastards are stealing chickens and dogs behind my back. Those guys are really getting cocky!"

Chapter 340 Rita's bleak future, and the Herrscher of Domination

"So... this is our junior sister?"

Having just finished lunch, Su Mei and the other Taixu disciples gathered together, sizing up the black-haired woman in front of them.

"Yes... I am Cheng Lixue. I was fortunate enough to be chosen by my master and become his disciple."

Cheng Lixue felt a lot of pressure among the crowd, after all, everyone present was twenty times her age or more—not to mention that among these people was not only her senior sister, but also her junior nephew.

"Oh! So that means I'm not the youngest in our Tai Xu Sword Sect?"

Qin Suyi didn't think much of it and clapped her hands happily.

"That's not important." Su Mei shook her head. Lately, she'd been reflecting on whether she'd been too protective of this girl back then, to the point that even though the girl was practically a mother herself, she was still so carefree...

No, perhaps this girl just doesn't want to discuss this in depth—how astute Qin Suyi was when they discussed breaking up the Tai Xu Sword Sect back then.

"Xiao Ba looks quite like Master," Cheng Lingshuang said without looking up as she wiped her longsword with a handkerchief.

"... Fifth Senior Sister is too kind. How could I, a junior sister, compare myself to Master?"

The atmosphere made Cheng Lixue quite uncomfortable; the Fifth Senior Sister in front of her seemed ready to chop someone up at any moment.

"Alright, alright, forget about Second Senior Sister and Fifth Senior Sister. We're the youngest in the Tai Xu Sword Sect. Come on, let your senior sister take you on a fun trip around Schicksal."

With a smile on her face, Qin Suyi grabbed Cheng Lixue's hand and led her outside.

... But I am the Valkyrie of Schicksal, aren't I? Cheng Lixue silently complained in her heart, but when she turned around and looked at Su Mei who was nodding slightly, she immediately understood something.

"Alright, Fifth Brother, who are you trying to impress by wiping your sword?" Su Mei scolded Cheng Lingshuang. "Haven't you caused enough trouble today? Little Eight has just recovered from serious injuries, and you're giving him that attitude?"

Su Mei felt that Cheng Lingshuang behaving rather improperly today.

"... Huh?" Cheng Lingshuang raised an eyebrow, looking puzzled. "What do you mean by giving me a dirty look?"

"Xiao Ba is talking while you're wiping your sword, isn't that giving me attitude?"

"... I'm just thinking about how many holes I should poke in that vixen tonight."

Cheng Lingshuang said indifferently.

Giving her new junior sister a hard time? She's not that busy, is she?

To put it bluntly, there are only three things in this world that can stir her emotions: matters concerning her own sect, matters concerning her own grandmaster Liu Bai, and the newly appointed Rita —although Cheng Lixue is considered their junior sister, everyone knows that Cheng Lixue and they are from two different groups.

Cheng Lingshuang basically doesn't care about other things. As long as it doesn't happen on her face, she always doesn't care what anyone does.
