Just now, she thought that after Lin Yu approached Himeko with that kind of gaze, he had really been seduced by Himeko.

As it turns out—he would have been better off being seduced by Himeko.

Theresa doesn't support SSL, but whatever it is, it's better than Lin Yu thinking about rushing out to fight the Honkai every day.

Look at this guy, coming back and immediately asking his superior for equipment, looking all excited and ready to go kill Honkai Beast...

Theresa founded St. Freya Academy in the hope that the Valkyrie would no longer be treated as tools.

The problem is, what can she do about a male knight like Lin Yu who treats himself as a tool?

If you talk to him properly, Lin Yu is quick-witted and will definitely sincerely say, "The clan leader is right," and then humbly accept the advice without changing his mind.

Sigh, Lin Yu.

Can't this kid relax for a moment and think about things other than fighting the Honkai?

At that moment, Theresa even had a thought that she shouldn't have had.

If only this kid could focus on messing around with women.

"The equipment was delivered to the branch yesterday."

Seeing Lin Yu's excited eyes, Himeko didn't think too much about it.

"Considering that you are off today, we did not notify you yesterday."

"I will hand over these equipment to you separately when the practical training begins tomorrow."

After saying that, Himeko suddenly looked at Kiana, who was standing silently on the other side.

Kiana, why are you so quiet today?

"Weren't you complaining about the equipment not arriving just a few days ago? Why are you so quiet now?"

"Huh? I, I..."

Kiana, who was suddenly called out by Himeko, forced a smile and said something to Himeko under everyone's gaze.

"Himeko- sensei, I think Study Hard is also very important."

Wow, this little girl actually said something like that.

That's so reassuring—I would be incredibly foolish to even think that way.

Seeing Kiana's forced smile and obvious guilt, Himeko narrowed her eyes slightly and chose not to press her further.

Kiana's behavior suggests that something is on her mind, but it's normal to have some minor worries during puberty.

Sigh, if Lin Yu had some teenage troubles like Kiana, it would be much less of a worry for me.

This at least shows that his attention was drawn to something else.

Thinking about it carefully, it's really ironic. I'm worried that the other girls are too carefree and will die on the battlefield.

Lin Yu, on the other hand, is the opposite. I'm really worried that he's not relaxed enough and might charge too far ahead one day and die on the battlefield.

As for Kiana, after saying that, she took the opportunity to glance at Fu Hua and Lin Yu.

Then, Kiana, who was looking at the two of them, suddenly looked puzzled.

"What's wrong, Kiana?"

"Kiana, is there something you need?"

"Nothing's wrong!"

Seeing the two people's bewildered looks, Kiana suddenly recalled the bed sheet she had seen earlier that day.

When Kiana saw this bed sheet, her mind went completely blank.

But now, looking at the two of them with those inexplicable expressions, she realized she was overthinking things.

At this moment, there was absolutely no atmosphere between Lin Yu and Fu Hua.

She could sense Lin Yu's desire for equipment, and she could also sense that Fu Hua seemed to be worried about something, but at this moment, Kiana could not sense any ambiguity in the atmosphere between the two.

Even though they went out together, entered the hotel together, and returned to the dormitory together, they still gave everyone a 'very ordinary' feeling.

It's so annoying.

What's even more annoying is that I have no reason to ask them these questions.

Seeing the atmosphere on the scene become extremely strange, Theresa coughed twice and then suddenly spoke to everyone in a slightly serious tone.

"Alright, alright, that's enough of the small talk."

"Now eat your food properly, and then you all go and prepare for next week's exam."

"Bishop Otto has given me direct instructions this time: you are all required to participate in the mission to Shenzhou."

"But--"

At this moment, Theresa's tone suddenly became a bit heavy.

"I am the headmaster of the St. Freya Academy. I am the one who calls the shots here."

"If the final exam results come out and I find that some of you have failed—if you fail even this monthly test—then you shouldn't participate in this mission."

Theresa, completely unaware of Kiana's extraordinary efforts that day, looked directly at Kiana.

"Especially you, Kiana. If your grades don't meet the requirements, I'll personally tutor you."

Even though Kiana was quite distracted at the moment, she still sensed an aura from Theresa that she had never felt before.

Wow, Aunt Flo has such a powerful aura?

Was that mascot-like aura she usually exuded just a facade?!

"In fact, just as Branch Leader Theresa said, you have to pass an exam before you can participate in actual combat."

After walking to the dining table, Himeko glanced at everyone in the room and addressed them.

"The reason Bishop Otto arranged for you to stay in my home is, frankly, because he values your character."

"Each of you has reasons for wanting to quickly advance in rank and become a member of Schicksal, but often, being impatient can backfire."

After giving Lin Yu a deep look, Himeko's tone became even more serious.

"But you must also remember that as soldiers, you will be acting alongside your fellow Schicksal members."

"If you rush too far ahead, you will not only put yourself in danger, but you may also endanger your companions."

"This is a very basic principle, but I think some people still don't understand it, so I have to emphasize it to you again—do you understand?!"

At this moment, feeling the gazes of Himeko, Theresa, and others focused on him, Lin Yu said helplessly to Himeko.

"I understand, Major Himeko."

"I assure you, I won't do anything reckless during the mission. After all..."

"I am really afraid of dying, and please believe me on that point."

Oh no, this kid didn't listen to a single word in the end.

There's nothing we can do. Rita and Bianca can't change his mind, and neither can we.

If this kid continues with this mentality, he... might even enter the underworld before me.

Anti-Entropy Headquarters. Between Arks

Inside the Ark Chamber, Welt, who had been awake for several days, looked at the report before him and still couldn't quite believe that the data was the truth.

A few days ago, Welt, who had finally recovered his health, regained his consciousness at the Anti-Entropy Headquarters.

Then, seeing the shifty eyes and embarrassed expressions on the faces of his companions around him, Welt suddenly had a bad feeling.

Knowing full well that "the truth will eventually come out" and "delaying will only make things worse," the hot-tempered Tesla, ignoring everyone's attempts to stop him, immediately told Welt all the problems that had been happening within Anti-Entropy during this period.

As for Welt almost fainting after learning about these terrible things and even seeing the specific details of the related intelligence, that's another matter entirely.

Even after several days had passed, Welt still refused to accept the reality he now had to face.

Anti-Entropy, in terms of finances, Cocolia's betrayal of Raiden Ryoma has caused a huge rift between the headquarters and branches of the ME Company.

Furthermore, the Father that the Armored ME Company was developing was taken away by Cocolia, and the remaining equipment was directly stolen by Schicksal.

As for the financial staff on the Schicksal side, seizing this opportunity to exploit the Anti-Entropy assets to the extreme is a matter for later.

It's fair to say that if Raiden Ryoma hadn't returned to headquarters in time and used his business acumen and connections to turn the tide, Anti-Entropy's finances would be ten times worse than Welt had imagined.

Meanwhile, due to Cocolia's deliberate act of Honkai, Anti-Entropy's reputation has been completely ruined in various countries.

Even countries like Amei, which are essentially tied to Anti-Entropy, don't have a good attitude towards the current Anti-Entropy.

If Otto hadn't made that bizarre choice to keep his promise and not seize the opportunity to kick someone when they're down, Anti-Entropy would probably be completely split up by now.

"Cocolia ..."

At this moment, Welt, who uttered this name, surprisingly harbored murderous intent towards someone.

In the past, the people who could make Welt want to kill were either enemies like Otto or human enemies like Sirin who threatened humanity.

Now, Cocolia has betrayed her loyal subordinate Raiden Ryoma internally, and caused a massive Honkai in Changkong City, killing many people.

For Welt, Cocolia, through her actions over the past year, has successfully become Welt's enemy and an enemy of humanity.

In a sense, Cocolia indeed be considered a remarkable person.

After causing so many major problems, Cocolia's only loss to its own forces was those Titan Mech.

After calmly making her way out unscathed, she left a huge mess for the Anti-Entropy conservatives, forcing Welt and others to clean up the mess for her.

Welt had actually foreseen this situation when he allowed warlord forces to join Anti-Entropy in the past.

Welt, however, felt that the Anti-Entropy forces were too weak, and that allowing warlords to join the Anti-Entropy would ultimately be more beneficial than harmful.

But now, Welt has finally understood.

There's a saying in Shenzhou that goes, "Everyone has their own unique talents."

Some people can only live as ordinary people until they discover their true talents.

However, once he discovers what he is truly good at, he can make a name for himself in that field.

"However, if possible... I really don't want those guys who are good at internal strife to continue to roam free outside under the name of our Anti-Entropy."

After saying this helplessly, Welt casually opened the new intelligence he had just received.

"Nine Nether..."

"Otto actually wants to send Kiana and Mei to this place for a mission. What exactly does he want?"

The informant on Schicksal's side had already forwarded the mission report he had obtained to Welt.

Moreover, according to the intelligence analysis sent by the informants, Otto did not specifically encrypt this information, and it was information that anyone with a little interest could see.

As Otto's old rival... well, Welt thinks that's just flattering himself.

As an unlucky guy who had been outmaneuvered and outmaneuvered by Otto countless times, Welt immediately understood after learning that this information was semi-public – that damned Otto was up to his old tricks again.

Otto wasn't a fool; he definitely knew that Anti-Entropy had planted spies within Schicksal 'Schicksal.

So he simply used the spies of Anti-Entropy as 'megaphones' to tell Welt and the others that I would soon send the daughters of Raiden Ryoma and Siegfried to Shenzhou.

Moreover, Otto knew the personalities of the remaining high-ranking members and related allies of Anti-Entropy.

Especially Siegfried, who was also a victim, and Otto, who had watched Siegfried grow up, knew all too well what Siegfried would do after learning the news.

"Welt, why are you frowning again?"

Siegfried, who had walked in from the outside of the Ark, saw Welt's furrowed brows and suddenly spoke with an unfriendly expression.

"Is it Otto or Cocolia?"

"Otto ... but I suspect Cocolia will also be involved in this operation."

Welt, who had gestured for Siegfried to look at the intelligence, rubbed his temples wearily and said to Siegfried in a weak voice.

"Under normal circumstances, Mei and Kiana, as D-rank Valkyrie, are not qualified to participate in actual combat."

"But frankly speaking, Schicksal is ultimately Otto's sole domain. As long as he wants to do something, the rules he sets for himself will naturally not stop him."

"As for Cocolia... she has her eye on Mei, so once she knows Mei will take action, she will definitely do the same."

"This woman is cunning; she probably won't show up at the scene. However, she will definitely send her trusted subordinates over there to try and capture Mei."
