"Her name is Gretel, and mine is Mobius —ah, just to clarify, I am Gretel's guardian, and I'm only in this body shape for now because of some issues."

Mobius could tell what Bronya was thinking just by looking at the look in Bronya eyes, and he explained in a gentle voice.

Mobius was clearly not angry; after all, it's perfectly normal for a child to have such thoughts when seeing someone close to their own age— Mobius was always exceptionally tolerant of children.

If Eden or Elysia showed that expression, Mobius would not hesitate to tear them apart on the spot.

"Understood, Sister Mobius." Seele nodded repeatedly, while imagining a series of tragic reasons why the other party had become this size.

This child... has such a sweet tongue, and seems as well-behaved as Gretel.

... It's just that her development seems a bit fast.

Mobius's expression toward Seele grew increasingly amiable.

If she had candy on hand, she would have definitely stuffed a handful into the child's mouth.

Bronya, however, was much colder.

Isn't she just a legal loli like Dr. Einstein?

This is simply trampling on the rules... However, because the other party's tone was kind, Bronya nodded slightly to indicate that she understood.

Mobius didn't take Bronya's coldness to heart. Firstly, she really wouldn't argue with a child. Secondly, with a face like Prometheus's, she would feel uncomfortable if she had a lot of expressions—although she glanced at Raiden Mei and thought that the other was indeed more pleasing to the eye than Mei.

"Gretel, you stay and play with these older sisters for now. Auntie will go and see other places." She was now even more curious about this civilization's anti- Honkai organization, but it wouldn't be appropriate to take Gretel to visit some of the more dangerous places.

"Mmm." Gretel nodded shyly.

It's not that Mobius is irresponsible, but it's a friendly map, and with adults and Prometheus watching around, what could possibly go wrong?

Mobius gave Cocolia a slight smile.

Cocolia replied without hesitation, "Don't worry, I'll take care of things here."

She's capable of doing this kind of work well.

However... my two daughters are both seventeen years old, they just haven't grown much taller, but this little girl looks only twelve or thirteen years old, right?

... Never mind, if it doesn't feel out of place, we should be able to play together.

After receiving Cocolia's promise, Mobius left with peace of mind. Once Mobius was out of sight, Cocolia turned to her two daughters and said, "You two, don't teach that little girl any strange things."

"Okay, Mom." Seele nodded obediently, while Bronya continued to stare at Prometheus.

Both of them seemed to want to say something, but neither of them actually said anything.

"Um... Mom, Sister Bronya, how about we go somewhere else?"

Seele asked cautiously.

She felt she couldn't just hang out at the airport, could she?

In a sense, airports are also a type of risky place—even if the probability is not high.

"Okay, let's go to the park then. I'll have Dr. Mei contact Ms. Mobius."

Cocolia looked around and saw that the fight had basically ended. After all, the senior figures on the other side had come with goodwill. Although they were prepared to fight, they couldn't just start trouble because they were prepared, could they?

For example, her own big boss, Edison, returned with his men looking completely bewildered. Clearly, what happened today was entirely different from what she had imagined.

This is really a good thing...

Cocolia breathed a sigh of relief, but then again, that bishop has also been approached?

"Hello, miss, my Aponia." Aponia walked up to Otto and gave him a polite bow.

"Otto Apocalypse, what's the matter?" Although Otto was very annoyed by the nun's imposing figure, she didn't seem to have any ill intentions. Moreover, rationally speaking, Otto didn't think that someone with such a commanding presence would bother him for no reason.

To put it bluntly, with that kind of figure, wouldn't it be more satisfying for her to bully Kallen, who is also dressed as a nun, next to her?

However, even though the other party did not have any obvious malicious intent, Otto still felt a sense of danger.

This guy is dangerous in himself.

Then, Otto sensed a similarity between himself and the other person—a schemer.

No wonder, was he the one in charge of plotting in the Previous Era... but he was even wearing a nun's habit.

Otto chuckled inwardly, but then remembered that he himself wasn't much better as an archbishop, so he calmed down.

However, Otto misunderstood this point. Although Aponia possessed the qualities of a schemer, the relatively enlightened atmosphere of the Previous Era and the heartfelt conversation between Liu Bai and Aponia meant that Aponia had no opportunity to manipulate people's hearts.

"Nothing's wrong, there's just a problem."

Aponia asked softly.

"Miss Otto, do you have a belief for which you would give everything?"

Otto had been prepared to handle the matter either formally or perfunctorily depending on the situation, became serious immediately upon hearing the question.

"Wait a minute, Miss Aponia, could you repeat your question?" Otto wondered if he was hallucinating.

Upon hearing this, Aponia did not show any strange expression, but calmly repeated her previous question, "Miss Otto, do you have a faith for which you would give everything?"

"Yes, of course!"

At this moment, Otto realized another similarity between himself and the other person.

"Let me reintroduce myself. I am Archbishop of Schicksal Otto Apocalypse —Miss Aponia, may I have a moment to learn about the sublimity of my Lord?"

"This is exactly what I wanted, Your Majesty the Archbishop."

Chapter 480 Spreading Filth!

"Please make yourselves at home, don't be shy, and please let us know what you'd like to drink."

In Rita's room, Rita greeted him very politely.

"Give me a glass of milk." Mei pulled up a chair and sat down without any hesitation.

Her relationship with Rita... is actually a bit complicated.

She's even a bit like Kiana; they both had past grievances but put them aside.

However, unlike Kiana, who has an older sister like Bianka mediating between them, there is absolutely no lubricant between the two of them.

Of course, if I had to name a character, it would be Liu Bai.

However, the problem is that Rita had previously stolen Liu Bai's food.

So now Mei is being a bit too harsh on Rita.

In addition, Mei felt that if she couldn't get rid of her sister status, she might have to call Rita her sister-in-law in the future.

It's a good thing that the horoscope hasn't really come down yet, otherwise Mei feels that she will definitely be taken advantage of by someone like Rita.

So Mei very polite to everyone else, but there's absolutely no need for her to be polite to Rita.

"Okay, a glass of milk, is there anything else you need?"

Rita looked at Bianka, Elysia, and Eden.

"Black tea will do." Bianka knew all too well how good her best friend was at making black tea.

"Then Aili and I will each have a cup of black tea, thank you."

Eden softly echoed this, making the decision for Elysia at the same time.

She didn't mean anything by it; she just didn't want Elysia to talk. Who knows where that girl would steer the conversation once she started talking.

But then again, this conversation sounds like ordering food at a restaurant.

Upon seeing the elegant maid outfit the other person was wearing, Eden couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

While Rita was preparing drinks, Elysia, who had nothing to do, looked around and finally set her sights on Mei.

Of all the people present, besides Rita, the one she was most interested in was naturally Mei, who looked exactly like Mei from Girls' Generation.

"Mei- chan, have you and Liu Bai kissed?"

"Eh?"

Mei, who had been idly observing Elysia and Eden, was startled by Elysia's antics.

Mei was even a little glad that Rita was still preparing, otherwise if Elysia had said something like that after the milk was brought over, she definitely wouldn't have been able to hold onto the milk.

... Of course, this is just a hypothetical situation. In reality, if Rita were in front of Aili would not be interested in Mei.

"I... I really wish I had it, but I don't."

Mei hesitated for a moment, then decided not to pretend.

There are only these people around me now, what's there to pretend about?

"So far, only that bastard maid and my brother have done it."

"Only... wait, brother?" Elysia gave a strange look. "Does your current civilization allow marriage between close relatives?"

"Huh? Close relatives? What close relatives?" Mei was also taken aback by Elysia's question. "How do I look alike to my brother? Besides, you can tell from our names that we are not related by blood. We are just... adopted siblings."

Mei was too embarrassed to say that, in her opinion, the so-called "brother" title was more like a flirtatious term like "good brother."

"Um... they really don't look alike."

Elysia looked Mei over and then nodded.

"But what does this have to do with the name?"

"Um..." Mei a little troubled. "My name is Raiden Mei, right?"

"Yes."

"My brother's name is Liu Bai, right?"

"Yes."

"One of us has the surname Lei Dian (Thunder) and the other Liu (Willow). Doesn't that have anything to do with our names?"

"Ah... surname?"

Elysia looked at Eden with a puzzled expression. Eden also paused for a moment, then coughed lightly and said, "Hmm... maybe it's a unique culture of our current civilization."

I don't understand, I don't understand at all.

Even though Eden, as a high-achieving student, is different from Elysia, who relies solely on her experience and talent, he still cannot quickly understand this kind of cultural issue.

Elysia scratched her head, pretending to understand. "So that means Miss Bianka's last name is Bianka, Durandal Kaslana is her first name? And Miss Rita's last name is Rita, and her given name is Losweiser?"

"Um... Western and Eastern naming conventions are not the same thing."

"My surname Kaslana, Durandal is a commemorative name I added to my name, which can also be used as a title," Bianka explained honestly.

"Oh... now the last name is at the end and the first name is at the beginning..."

Elysia made the expression typical of someone who is illiterate.

"Forget it, let's ask Danzhu about these things later," Eden said wisely.

She could also tell that these people weren't really good at explaining these things, since it was common sense for them.

If Mei and Bianka were to actually ask why the Previous Era didn't have names, Eden could only answer that it simply didn't...

Everyone is quite sensible in this regard, so let's not make things difficult for each other.

Here, drinks for you all.

Rita returned with the plate at that moment.

After the drinks were served and the group thanked him, Eden got down to business.

"Miss Rita, would you mind telling me about Liu Bai?"

"Huh? That's quite a broad question." Rita thought for a moment and realized she really didn't know where to begin.

"I know, I know!" Elysia suddenly perked up again. "Eden wants to ask Rita how you feel in bed, right?"

"Only you want to ask this question."

Eden pushed Elysia away, somewhat speechless.

Why would she ask such a question when she has nothing better to do? Elysia was just dreaming about it, so she asked it anyway, since dreams can't be compared to reality.

But Rita's experience was a real-life one, Eden felt that it was better to experience it firsthand than to ask... Perhaps that's why Elysia was so curious about Rita's thoughts.
