This Isn't Right! (Continued)

The same principle applies to the other people in the Stasis Pod; the "50,000-year wait" is mainly an added intimidation tactic, meaning it sounds very threatening.

As for Otto, although he was using AI to AFK, he could read memories, so he accumulated experience through cheating... but to be honest, it doesn't really count.

"On another note, if possible, try to hold your wedding with the doctors within four years," Reanna unusually suggested regarding Liu Bai's wedding.

"Four years? Is there any explanation for that?" Liu Bai asked, somewhat confused.

"Because in four years, Dr. Planck will be turning 100. You can't let Dr. Planck be 100 years old and still not have a partner, can you?"

Liu Bai was taken aback when he heard this.

Indeed, if it weren't for Reanna's reminder, Liu Bai would have almost forgotten that Planck is already ninety-six years old, and it would be a bit unreasonable if he didn't get married soon.

"Four years... that's enough. Four years is definitely enough to kill the Honkai and go home to get married."

Liu Bai did the math: the Previous Era's Herrscher hadn't been defeated in two years, so the current civilization's progress was more than enough.

"Now that you mention it, I can't help but start to worry. Is this what Ryoma was talking about, 'planting the flag'?"

"Do you think planting a flag is feudal superstition, or is it me, this ghost, who's feudal superstition?" Liu Bai rolled his eyes.

Reanna laughed upon hearing this, "Hehe... that makes sense. Please wait a moment, I'll make your bed."

While laughing, Reanna took out a new set of bedding and sheets from the closet and began to change them. "You shouldn't sleep on the floor. What kind of knight sleeps on the bed while his lord sleeps on the floor? You can sleep on the bed, and I'll sleep on the sofa. If you don't agree, I'll have to talk to the doctors."

"Is the second half of your sentence... a threat?"

"I just think the doctors would be very happy to welcome you, especially Nancy and Schrödinger."

Liu Bai was slightly annoyed upon hearing this. Well, what Reanna said was true. Nancy and Schrödinger were not Liu Bai's contractors, especially Nancy, who was practically openly stating that her positive image was inferior to Tesla's in some way.

To be honest, Nancy, who is also known as Edison, couldn't figure out where she was inferior to Tesla after thinking it over and over.

Even if we're talking about flaws, she's at most arrogant, while Tesla is genuinely bad-tempered and an alcoholic.

At most, Tesla, being a bit arrogant, will occasionally act coy...

As for Einstein, Nancy acknowledges it, after all, mature women and lolis are not on the same track.

"Alright, since that's the case, I'll accept it without hesitation."

Seeing that Liu Bai had agreed, Reanna's smile became even gentler, and she began to talk to Liu Bai about other things.

"To be honest, I originally planned to go back to live in the cabin next to the artificial lake. After all, although more than sixty years have passed, the cabin has not changed much thanks to the maintenance of the Valkyrie and Miss Rita."

The Valkyrie of all ages... Reanna's house has been voluntarily maintained over the years, and has been voluntarily hidden in the diaries that were once considered forbidden books by Schicksal.

It was passed down to Rita.

If Rita is Ragna's number one idol, then Reanna is definitely her number two idol.

Even though Reanna isn't physically present in Schicksal, she still exerts a subtle influence within the Schicksal.

"Then why did you end up living in the dorms?"

"Because it's too deserted there—I'm not the same person I was sixty years ago, and my Schicksal is not the Schicksal as it was sixty years ago."

Reanna went back with Rita, and as Reanna herself said, it was really too deserted there.

Then Reanna remembered why she lived by the lake—it was to hide from Otto and Fu Hua, those two heartless bastards.

The overall atmosphere was so bad that Reanna couldn't change it, so she simply went to a quiet place to hide away and avoid seeing it.

As for what happened next... well, there's not much to say. After meeting Einstein and others, Reanna immediately switched sides.

But now, the atmosphere in Schicksal is not as oppressive as it was back then, and the acquaintances he knew back then... well, let's not even talk about it, he's even a little emotionally overwhelmed.

The entire Schicksal was filled with the chatter of young girls all day long... especially since some of these chattering people were his old acquaintances.

Well, I've never seen anything this lively in my life. Why bother going back to the lakeside cabin?

Reanna decisively packed up her belongings, which were still in relatively good condition, and moved into the dormitory.

"Forget about those old, trivial matters. Would you like some late-night snacks, Alliance Leader? I have some ham, sausages, and other ingredients in my room; I can make something simple."

Valkyrie's room has its own kitchen.

"How about... some?"

The next day.

Cecilia's room.

Cecilia looked at her husband who was bringing out the dishes and her daughter Kiana who had come over to freeload, a strange expression on her face.

"Mom? What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Kiana was particularly sensitive about matters concerning her mother, so Kiana noticed Cecilia's slightly strange expression.

"Yeah, you seem a bit distracted today, honey." Siegfried asked with a curious expression after serving the food. "What's wrong?"

"Something happened..." Cecilia paused, as if organizing her thoughts, "When I came back last night, I saw the Alliance Leader go to Aunt Reanna's room."

Cecilia didn't know how to look at her daughter. This wouldn't do... her daughter had fallen behind by one place again.

The breakfast that was going so well suddenly fell silent.

Snap

The sound of Kiana's chopsticks hitting the ground broke the silence among everyone.

"This... this is a sneaky escape, isn't it?" Kiana looked depressed.

"Ahem, Granny Reanna is being a bit unfair, taking things from the children." Siegfried coughed twice. "Eat, eat! Let's not talk about these things at the dinner table."

If you don't talk about these things at the dinner table, when will you?

Cecilia rolled her eyes at Siegfried.

However, I can understand my husband's and daughter's reaction.

If it were someone else, like Rita before, her own daughter would definitely come to cause trouble, and Siegfried would also go to take her side.

But this time it's Sister Reanna!

If you're looking for trouble with Rita, fine, you're good at finding fault, so what are you complaining about?

But Reanna... is she just looking for trouble?

Kiana and Siegfried flew over, and Reanna dared to join in the attack, and the father and daughter couldn't fight back.

As for finding fault based on relationships... sorry, but if you think about it carefully, Kaslana and Schariac are the least qualified to find fault, okay?

"Come on, Kiana, eat more vegetables. Mom will buy some papayas for lunch, you and your sister can share them." Although Cecilia inwardly condemned Siegfried's cowardly behavior, if she really said it... she was a coward too.

If she hadn't been so cowardly, she would have gone up and stopped them last night!

"Does my sister still need papaya?" Kiana asked quietly.

Kiana no longer cares much about being a clone.

But the problem is, logically speaking, if you are a clone, why are you not as developed as your sister?

If it weren't for her pride, Kiana would have gone to Otto to ask for some after-sales service...

"How old are you? How old is your sister?" Cecilia tapped Kiana on the head.

Kiana is currently only ten years old, and if we start counting from when Otto raised her into a human form, she's at most twelve or thirteen.

"The problem is that Otto said my biological age is 19, and my sister is also 19, isn't she?"

"Cough... Don't listen to Otto's nonsense, she never tells the truth." Cecilia turned her head away.

Otto already has enough problems, so adding another small one won't hurt.

Kiana's lips twitched.

I have to say, my own mother's lying skills are far inferior to hers.

Well, her lying skills weren't that great either; now that I think about it, she probably never fooled Mei or Himeko even once.

—Even so, you can't treat your daughter like an idiot!

... However, thinking about her older sister's overly straightforward personality, Kiana deeply felt that if Bianka were by her side right now, she might actually believe it to be true.

Should I really go to Otto and ask for some after-sales service...?

Kiana's mind started working, but unfortunately, she wasn't thinking about the right things.

"Alright, alright, stop comparing yourself to your sister. Don't you have other friends?" Siegfried said at this moment.

His wife is a good girl, so he's the one who has to fool people.

"Dad, you mean Mei?"

Kiana looked at her father expressionlessly.

Still looking at Mei?

Even Mei's Mei are about the same size as her older sister's! And just look at Mei, her Mei are still developing... they'll be bigger than her mother's!

Are you sure?

"Ahem, besides Mei, isn't there Bronya too?"

"Dad, if you don't know how to comfort people, you don't have to," Kiana said with a resentful look.

Go and compare sizes with Bronya? Even if Bronya doesn't care, she doesn't even have the nerve to do that!

"Then... good luck on your own?" Siegfried thought for a moment and finally came to terms with reality.

These kinds of palace intrigue dramas are just too difficult for their older generation!

Especially since this palace drama also features the older generation and the very older generation of them!

This is ridiculous! One wrong move and someone could rip your head off!

... If all else fails, go and make animation with Uncle Joyce and Uncle Yang yourself.

Gangda Mu was, after all, his dream when he was young.

"To put it simply, Mom and Dad have seen it all, but Kiana, your situation... we really can't do anything about it."

Cecilia nodded in agreement.

It's too dangerous. Cecilia would rather go to the battlefield than get involved in these things.

"Okay, I'll do my best on my own then," Kiana sighed.

"If all else fails, move closer to your sister," Cecilia said tactfully.

In fact, Cecilia felt that Kiana might become the "free" item in a buy-one-get-one-free deal...

But Cecilia had no other thoughts besides feeling sentimental, since Kiana liked Liu Bai.

We can't lose, but we shouldn't even think about winning either. My eldest daughter might have a chance, but as for my younger daughter, forget it.

It's unclear whether Kiana understood Cecilia's true intentions. After wiping her chopsticks, she picked up her rice bowl and started eating as if nothing had happened.

The headquarters of the World Serpent, the former site of the Moth Chasers to Fire.

The World Serpent's executives were woken up early in the morning by Gray Serpent and Mei, and took a plane all the way back to World Serpent headquarters.

"Ah... I miss it so much, it feels like it's been ages since I've been back," Raven sighed, looking around at the scenery.

"It's not a feeling, you just haven't been back for a long time," Gray Serpent stated the fact in a calm tone.

In his eyes, before Raven met Liu Bai, he was a typical example of someone who was both busy and unlucky, with a bunch of things going on at the orphanage, the island, and the bar. How could Raven possibly have time to come back?

"Uh, really... By the way, why did we come back this time?" Natasha, having been exposed, quickly changed the subject.

"Wake up the Flame-Chasers of the previous civilization." Gray Serpent's concise answer made Raven's heart skip a beat.

"Is it related to the boss?"

"Would you believe me if I said it's okay?" Gray Serpent seemed to be joking, but his hoarse voice betrayed no hint of joking.

"..."

A sense of relief rose in the Raven's silence.

Thank goodness I didn't let my boss into the room yesterday.

Although afterwards I felt that my boss really didn't mean anything by it, given the current situation, if I let my boss go to jail, I'd be in deep trouble... I'm just a World Serpent—
