The Invitation to Fu Hua

Sirin, who resides within Kiana, hates humanity. Given enough Honkai Energy, she will immediately begin a massacre.

Unfortunately, the most powerful force in the world right now is Schicksal, Schicksal, to put it bluntly, is Otto's most useful tool.

When the time comes, Otto will surely launch his plan, kidnap Kiana on the spot, inject her with a large amount of Honkai Energy, and then create a super-large Honkai.

That's how it is in the original story, and the system has made it even clearer that Otto will definitely do this in the future, and even the survival crisis has been confirmed.

It seems that Bronya and Yuno have been appeased and fooled by Lin Yu, but to be honest, what Lin Yu did was only to temporarily keep the two time bombs away from the ignition source.

Bronya and Yuno aren't inanimate objects; they're living, breathing people. It's hard to say whether they might come into contact with a new source of fire and explode in the future.

Although Fu Hua is not as unstable as these people, she is now a member of Otto's camp.

Before she realized that Otto was someone who would sacrifice everything for his own plans... well, to put it bluntly.

Before Otto blasted her head with the Flame-Chaser's Judgment, she wasn't even one of their own.

After much thought, among the group, Mei, the legitimate Herrscher with Herrscher powers, is actually the most stable.

She cannot perfectly wield the power of the Herrscher of Thunder, but the Herrscher of Thunder will not harm her; instead, it will help her defeat her enemies while she is asleep.

Lin Yu felt that as long as he, the murderer who had beaten the Herrscher of Thunder, wasn't by Herrscher of Thunder side when she awakened, she shouldn't go completely berserk... right?

This is such a hassle.

In order to survive, I have to play a persona that is completely different from my own personality.

But in order to play this role, I feel that some new problems will arise.

New problems? Perhaps this kind of daily role-playing will indeed lead to some new problems. But as the saying goes, risk is opportunity!

[Now, in front of everyone, you've successfully portrayed a sufficiently pitiful vengeful ghost. And if you continue like this, those maternal girls will only start to feel sorry for you because of the mask you wear.]

[If things continue like this, they'll eventually become your easy prey... Hehehe, thinking about that makes the future seem a little less bleak.]

Forget it, lying is already unethical enough, and feelings gained through deception are inherently false.

Instead of fantasizing about a future that doesn't even exist, I'd rather think about how I'll explain myself when everyone finds out about me.

Don't panic, these are minor issues. As long as you can suppress them for a lifetime, they won't be able to achieve the "Let's divide him up" achievement!

Forget it, suppressing someone for a lifetime? With such a huge Herrscher of Finality squatting here, it would be a miracle if I could suppress him.

Hey, you're great in every way, except you lack self-confidence.

Even if you look down on yourself, you can't look down on this system! With this system around, suppressing the Herrscher of Finality is a piece of cake!

Well said. Now send me the reward.

If I could suppress the Herrscher of Finality, I'd definitely be changing positions and having a wild time every day.

You know the rules; if you want it, you have to come and get it yourself.

So, given how things are, why should I think so much?

I should probably go to bed early, after all...

—St St. Freya Academy is still considered a military academy.

In military academy, I, as a new recruit, should probably behave myself a little.

The next day, St. Freya Academy

Inside the St. Freya Academy, Himeko introduced the students to several people who had suddenly St. Freya Academy.

As a very handsome man, Lin Yu was unsurprisingly surrounded by people as soon as class ended.

St. Freya Academy is an all-girls school. Even though a few male knights occasionally came here for a period of time for special reasons, none of them had Lin Yu's handsome face.

Incidentally, the uniform Lin Yu is currently wearing is a spare set of clothes left behind by the male knights. Until his and Kiana's personal uniforms are completed, he can only make do with the clothes left behind by others.

Now, Himeko has announced that Lin Yu is not an exchange student or auditor, but rather a student council member of the university, studying relevant courses on campus. Under these circumstances...

Lin Yu could even sense that a terrifying green light was beginning to flicker in the eyes of these girls.

"These women...!"

On the other side, Kiana looked at the Valkyrie who had surrounded Lin Yu and felt that her fists had won.

"Kiana, calm down."

Seeing the veins bulging on Kiana's fist, Yuno sighed helplessly.

"We've only just started school, and on our very first day, we're already having a conflict with our classmates over something like this... That's not a good thing."

"But, but— Mei, why are you just staring like that?!"

Seeing that Mei's gaze towards Lin Yu and the female students was surprisingly calm, Kiana asked in annoyance.

"Don't you find those women annoying?!"

"Huh? Really?"

Hearing Kiana's question, Mei, who had come to her senses, smiled and said...

"Isn't this great? So many people are welcoming Lin Yu; we, as his friends, should be happy."

"But...!"

"Besides, Kiana, wouldn't it be a good thing if Lin Yu formed bonds with them and opened his heart to them?"

Recalling Lin Yu's performance when he left yesterday, Mei said with a hint of heartache.

"Lin Yu's mental state is very unhealthy right now. If someone can open his heart and help him get out of that nightmare, that would be a good thing."

Why are you angry about such a good thing?

"But, but..."

Why can't that person be me?!

"Actually, Sister Kiana doesn't need to worry about this at all."

Bronya, having finished packing her belongings, gave Lin Yu, who still maintained a cold expression, a deep look before speaking to Kiana.

"According to Bronya's estimate, the probability that Lin Yu... brother will have a pleasant conversation with these people is no more than six in a thousand."

"After all... his mind is probably focused on fighting the Honkai."

Just as Bronya had predicted, Lin Yu stood up from his seat and addressed the crowd.

"Excuse me, everyone. I'm not interested in your topic."

"I just want to become stronger so I can fight against the Honkai and save more people."

Bronya spread her hands helplessly after hearing Lin Yu's words.

"You see, just like Bronya said."

"Brother Lin Yu, I have absolutely no desire for that."

"Senior... sigh, this idiot."

Looking at the noisy classroom and Himeko, who hadn't left yet, she felt that this farce was... quite novel.

The Honkai world may seem like a peaceful place, but in the eyes of the Valkyrie who are aware of the Honkai and even stand on the front lines of the fight against Honkai, the world is now experiencing frequent Honkai and is close to the end of the world.

In the apocalypse, many people will begin to abandon their past restraint and choose to enjoy life to the fullest—after all, in this state, no one knows what they will become tomorrow.

In Himeko's eyes, if Lin Yu had that kind of idea, he could have used his face to make a vow of love with one of these young girls today and then enter the bridal chamber.

However, it seems that this problem child has not shown any such thoughts, either because his mind is too chaotic or because his morals are too high.

I really don't know whether I should be reassured that he won't mess around, or worried that he actually won't mess around.

As the protagonist of this farce, Lin Yu chose to discourage everyone with this indifferent approach, mainly because of his public persona.

A vengeful ghost like him only thinks about fighting Honkai every day, how could he possibly think about dating a girl?

Under this premise, even if Lin Yu is handsome, once he turns cold, he exudes an aura that keeps strangers at bay.

If it weren't for the fact that the Cold-Faced Hunk had the ability to enhance the attractiveness of the title holder to the opposite sex, he estimated that the trainee Valkyrie around him would collectively drop their favorability towards him by three to five points.

I'm acting every time I wake up.

If it weren't for the advantage of being called Cold-Faced Hunk, I feel like I would have become an incurable case of late-stage facial paralysis sooner or later.

"Lin Yu, please wait a moment."

While the Valkyrie made way for him, Fu Hua walked up to Lin Yu and blocked his path.

"We didn't settle the score in yesterday's battle. To be honest, I'm very dissatisfied."

[Heh heh, not convinced? What a lame excuse.]

Hearing Fu Hua's excuse, you just think—this girl is such an idiot, her lying is so clumsy.

However, it is precisely because of this kind of person that she was fooled by Otto. And for you now...

[It's not necessarily a bad thing that an easily fooled old lady is actively seeking you out.]

After sending these messages, Lin Yu saw Fu Hua's character introduction template appear in front of him.

Name: Fu Hua

[Identity: One of the Thirteen Heroes of the Previous Era, the Crimson Heron Immortal of Shenzhou, A-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, and your classmate.]

Current favorability level: 15

[Note: She saw a reflection of her past self in you, so...]

I said, your system of only saying half of what you mean will get you killed in some situations.

[Some places are some places, and right now, the only person here who knows about this system is you, the host. Are you the kind of ruthless person who would harm this system?]

Playing the emotional card at times like this... is really unnecessary.

I think you could just pull out any super-powerful gadget and instantly kill me, right, Doraemon?

[Haha, since you're so self-aware, this conversation is going to fall apart, host.]

"What's wrong, Lin Yu?"

Looking at the silent Lin Yu, Fu Hua slightly pushed up his glasses and then provocatively addressed Lin Yu.

"Does that mean you've lost your confidence to fight me after yesterday's battle?"

[Oh, what a pointless provocation. This is like the prelude to a girl pursuing a boy she likes in a third-rate novel. In your eyes, the Crimson Heron Immortal has already—]

Her favorability rating is only 15, you just showed it to me.

Oh, I'm so sorry, I forgot.

"If you want to play again, of course I have no problem with it."

Ignoring the system's incessant chatter, Lin Yu walked up to Fu Hua and said indifferently.

"To be more precise, I was a little annoyed that I didn't deliver that final blow yesterday."

Kiana, who was watching the two confront each other from a distance, noticed that the Valkyrie beside them had now split into two factions.

Now, a subtle tension has begun to emerge between the "Lord Lin Yu is definitely very strong" faction and the "Sister Fu Hua is the best in the world" faction.

Looking at this group of Valkyrie, Kiana felt that something was wrong with the situation.

No, this is St. Freya Academy, right?

This is the place where Valkyrie are trained to fight against the Honkai, right?

In a school like this, are you really okay to act with a more relaxed attitude than I do?

Is there a slight difference between the Schicksal organization and the image I imagined?

Chapter 94. An Invitation to Fu Hua

Approximately three weeks later. St. Freya Academy. Dean's Office.

Inside her office, Theresa looked at the supply list sent from headquarters on the screen and casually clicked on one of the weapons.
