Kiana, I'm Sorry, You've Been Wronged All This Time (cont.)
[It's here! It's here! Although it's not the scene this system was most looking forward to, it's enough as an appetizer!]
Look! The girl next door with childhood sweetheart vibes—
I think Bianca is not small in any way.
[And then there's the gentle little sister who, right after our encounter, can be both soft and assertive, and even has a personality-switching, bear-like charm—]
Well, Seele isn't exactly young, is she?
Okay, they're not young anymore, so what should you do with these two girls who are no longer young and have feelings for you?
Of course you're kidding me. Do you expect me to do all sorts of weird stuff in this kind of weird environment?
With your and their combined strength, it doesn't seem impossible.
Holy crap, you're really defying the heavens.
[Shut up! You're not qualified to talk about this system if you can only think of that first!]
"Seele, relax."
Upon realizing that the atmosphere at the scene was becoming increasingly tense, Lin Yu whispered to the girl in his arms.
"Don't be nervous, Bianca is one of us."
"I... I understand."
Despite saying those words, Seele still had no intention of letting go.
Looking at the girl clinging to Lin Yu like a koala, Durandal suppressed her inexplicable anger and said to Lin Yu in an annoyed tone.
"I thought you weren't doing well and I was worried about you."
"Looking back now... I was such an idiot for worrying about you."
[She's jealous, she's jealous, she's jealous—now, host, how do you plan to deal with this?]
Please, just shut up and watch the show—don't say a word, just watch what I do!
[Oh!]
The first thing I need to do is...
Sigh, don't give up on Seele, giving up won't solve the problem.
I'll just use my not-so-brilliant, but at least convincing, talking techniques to fool the little girl.
"Let's not talk about that now. You were able to enter the Quantum Sea, and judging from what you've said, you've been searching for me for a long time. You must know how to leave here."
"Lead the way first, and we can discuss other things after we leave this place."
"... I see."
After hearing Lin Yu say these words in a detached tone, Durandal could only suppress the resentment in her heart.
However, before leaving, she glanced at the girl in Lin Yu and asked Lin Yu in a seemingly calm manner.
"Aren't you going to introduce this child's identity?"
"Seele Vollerei, Bronya's adopted sister whom she has been searching for."
"Bronya's sister, doesn't that mean..."
After seeing Lin Yu blinking frantically at her, Durandal immediately chose to shut up.
At the same time, Seele sensed that the older sister who had just been radiating resentment towards her now looked at her with a gaze that no longer held any resentment, but instead held a hint of pity.
Hey, this older sister... why is she making that face?
Who knows, at least for now, we can catch our breath a little.
Black Seele, who was lying dormant within the Stigmata at this moment, felt that she absolutely could not act recklessly in the future.
Lin Yu is already so strong, but why does just any random acquaintance of his suddenly appear with such high individual strength?
Having entered and exited the Quantum Sea, the power of the Stigmata on his body was terrifyingly strong, and the intensity of his Honkai Energy was even stronger than that of the monster from before.
Damn it, are all the warriors of Schicksal humanoid monsters?
Anti-Entropy. Haiyuan City
Inside the Haiyuan City, Su, who was still pondering her next move, suddenly noticed a fluctuation appearing at the entrance to the Abyssal Eye.
As the fluctuations became increasingly intense, three figures suddenly entered the territory within Haiyuan City from the entrance of the Abyssal Eye.
At this moment, Seele, who was clinging to Lin Yu, looked around in disbelief and then exclaimed in great surprise.
"We're out already?"
"Cough cough."
At this moment, Seele was extremely surprised. After hearing the older sister next to her cough twice, she immediately understood what the other person meant.
Then, Seele, whose personality was still somewhat gentle, reluctantly let go of Lin Yu's arms and jumped down.
Welt, who had originally intended to greet Lin Yu, took a subtle step back after looking at the three young people present and sensing the atmosphere between them, and decisively chose to remain silent.
Sigh, these young people nowadays... I really don't know what to say about them.
However, this child...
"You are, Cocolia's daughter, Seele Vollerei?"
After recalling the information he had seen, Welt adjusted his non-prescription glasses and immediately stopped himself from saying what he was about to say.
"You, you are... you are Alliance Leader Welt?!"
Seele had seen Welt's photo in Cocolia's database, looked at Lin Yu and Welt with extreme nervousness.
Oh no, this is terrible.
Brother Lin Yu and this blonde older sister are Schicksal ones, while Alliance Leader Welt is a member of Anti-Entropy.
Now that they've met, doesn't that mean—
[Fool, nothing will happen.]
At this moment, Black Seele, who was observing the atmosphere around her, calmly said to Seele.
If you pay even a little attention, you'll notice that there's absolutely no hostile atmosphere between them.
No, it's not just that. The Alliance Leader you just mentioned even tried to greet that blond fat woman.
Golden-haired fat lady... that's very rude of you.
[Ha, so what if it was rude? First of all, she couldn't hear me anyway—don't you feel any hostility towards her right now?]
Of course not.
Without this older sister leading the way, Brother Lin Yu and I would still be drifting aimlessly in the Quantum Sea.
[You... you're actually serious?]
Upon noticing that Seele seemed distracted, Lin Yu immediately began blinking frantically at Sue and Welt, who were about to speak.
The two glanced at Seele, who was lost in thought, and then at Lin Yu, who was blinking. They immediately understood what Lin Yu was thinking.
Cocolia may not be a good person, but she is, after all, the mother of these children.
Mr. Lin Yu, you don't want these children to know about Cocolia's death, so you don't want us to talk about this topic.
"Mr. Lin Yu."
Looking at the boy in front of him, Welt, who had already made up his mind, extended his right hand to Lin Yu in a friendly manner.
"Siegfried has mentioned you many times. He once told me that he owes you a great debt of gratitude."
"It's not that bad. If Mr. Siegfried hadn't helped me, I might have died in Changkong City long ago."
After taking the initiative to shake the other person's hand, Lin Yu responded to Welt.
"But let's skip the small talk for today."
"We'll have plenty of time for casual conversation after we've finished our business. Right now, I'm curious about something..."
"How much time has passed since my fight with Kevin?"
"Twenty days."
Sure enough, the flow of time inside the World Bubble is different from the flow of time outside.
I only spent about a week inside the World Bubble, but it turned out I spent three weeks outside.
Luckily, I managed to escape in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.
At this moment, seeing Lin Yu and Welt start talking about serious matters, even though Seele really wanted to know what had happened to her foster mother who might have done bad things, she chose to keep quiet in this situation.
For Seele, her biggest worry was that Lin Yu, a member of Schicksal, and Welt, a member of Anti-Entropy, would fight.
But now, such a thing is impossible, so a small wish naturally arose in Seele's heart.
If Schicksal and Anti-Entropy can cooperate, then Mother Cocolia shouldn't be Brother Lin Yu's enemy anymore.
If that's the case, that would be wonderful.
Meanwhile, Durandal sensed something was amiss as she observed the atmosphere.
Lin Yu and Welt, the Alliance Leader of Anti-Entropy, were clearly meeting for the first time, but while they didn't exactly have a pleasant conversation, there was at least no hostility between them...
Well, judging from Welt's efforts to help Durandal rescue Lin Yu, Welt might really be a hero.
It's normal that Lin Yu didn't feel any resistance towards such a senior figure.
But—why is there no conflict between Su and Lin Yu?
I remember that twenty days ago, he and Lin Yu were not exactly enemies, but their relationship was certainly not good.
I always feel like I've been kept in the dark about many things.
Since we're out here, let's give Lin Yu some face and not disrupt his train of thought.
But once I return to Schicksal, I will make sure he explains everything to me clearly!
"Oh right, Alliance Leader Welt, you have some free time now, that's perfect."
Remembering something, Lin Yu suddenly turned to look at Durandal beside him and said to Durandal with utmost solemnity.
"Bianca, there's something I've wanted to tell you for a long time."
"What... what do you want to say?"
After looking around, Durandal suddenly asked, a little nervously.
"Are you sure you want to say this here?"
He suddenly wanted to say something?
No... no, definitely not.
At this moment, Durandal had proactively denied that possibility, shook her head with a wry smile, then immediately put away that fleeting wry smile and said to Lin Yu very decisively.
"Fine, go ahead and say what you want to say, I'm listening."
"Okay, then, I hope you can calm down and then meet someone."
"... Making it all so mystical."
At this moment, Durandal, who was already somewhat dissatisfied, suddenly took a step forward and pressed herself close to Lin Yu 'Lin Yu body, saying to him with great dissatisfaction.
"I am, after all, S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal. You treat me like a fragile little girl. That's going too far."
"... That's true, but I'm not that old, and you're even younger than me. In my and her eyes, you're undoubtedly a little girl."
"She?"
Seeing Durandal's puzzled look, Lin Yu took two steps back and activated the power of the Stigmata on his right hand.
As the Stigmata transformed into a lance, a figure suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.
"What... this is?!"
At this moment, Welt, who had met the other party several times, suddenly said with great surprise.
"Lady Cecilia?!"
"You... you're still alive?!"
