Chapter 257

"Doctor Mei!" Rita was also angry. She said directly, "Wasn't it you who encouraged Wendy to run up to the rooftop? Don't you even dare to admit it?"

"Huh?" Mei was a little stunned. She said, completely confused, "I only gave her less than five hours of public execution."

"Nothing else has been done."

"If I had to say something encouraging," MEI thought for a moment and said, "I just said that if you want to become Valkyrie, you have to listen to your own 'inner voice,' do what you want to do, and not care about what others think."

"And a few more words."

Just give people some inspirational words.

Back in China, she watched a lot of these kinds of things!

After all, you can see tons of this kind of stuff even if you don't want to.

Moreover, although these kinds of things often contain useless empty talk and have no practical meaning, they are actually quite good for writing essays.

If you add just one or two sentences or a long paragraph, your essay will at least be above average, even if it doesn't get a high score.

So if we're talking about giving people inspirational quotes, there's a whole bunch of people waiting to be fed them those.

Besides, during an operation, you get a slap followed by a treat, a beating followed by a sweet treat, and even a five-hour public execution is met with some words of encouragement. MEI remember that Wendy's character was supposed to be 'vengeful'.

She didn't want Wendy to hold a grudge.

Even if you could remember, you couldn't remember it that badly.

"Really?" Rita felt a little strange.

Really not?

"Otherwise?" MEI retorted, "Do you think I'm being ridiculous, that I have to encourage her to go to the rooftop? What good do you think it would do me if she went to the rooftop?"

"Besides, I don't need to encourage her to do this because of those words."

"A public execution would take about five hours."

"This..." Rita thought about it and felt that it made sense; it seemed that MEI really had no reason to encourage Wendy to go to the rooftop.

"Then what was she going up there for?"

"She's probably having a fit of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)." MEI picked up her coffee cup and checked it carefully to see if it was broken. Only after seeing that there were no cracks did she feel relieved and said, "This Wendy seems pretty chuunibyou."

"And she's currently in the period when this 'chuunibyou' (middle school syndrome) hasn't ended yet."

"So I'm not surprised she did something like this," MEI said. "I'm not surprised at all."

She's just a little girl having a fit of teenage angst. You're only young if you're a little angsty, right? Back when I was a kid, I used to study Ultraman all the time.

Something like, "I want to become light, whoosh~"

So under these circumstances, Wendy might be acting out of her delusions of grandeur.

It's not surprising that MEI is not at all.

Moreover, I noticed from our first meeting that Wendy's chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) was quite severe.

"And that's exactly right," MEI said, taking a sip of coffee. "The fundamental manifestation of her power is the wind."

"Let her go up to the rooftop to feel the breeze and experience the power of nature."

"Oh, right."

Where is the Silly Goose?

Chapter 279 Catching a Silly Goose

Durandal, S-rank Valkyrie of the Schicksal S rank.

It has a rather interesting name.

"DOODOO"

This nickname came about because Otto mispronounced it. The word DOODOO can be directly translated as 'Dudu,' and the similar word DoDo also has another meaning.

That is, the 'Dodo Bird'.

The Dodo Bird is quite famous in the biological world, mainly because it was driven to extinction by humans.

But this is not about the story of the Dodo Bird.

It's actually a little-known fact about the Dodo Bird.

The scientific name for the Dodo Bird is 'Dodo'. DOODOO also means 'fool' or 'idiot' in English slang.

Therefore, even in this world, Durandal has a nickname that is not often brought up but is still mentioned by people.

'Silly Goose'!

MEI responded that the people's eyes are indeed discerning; there are only wrong names, not wrong nicknames.

Of course, this nickname is not usually used.

There wasn't much contact between MEI and Silly Goose.

Silly Goose wasn't in Changkong City, nor on the Hyperion. The Valkyrie squad she led was the most... a bit Schicksal.

It's not the best, but it's definitely not a very popular team.

The Blade of Unending.

A squad that specializes in killing its own people!

Of course, saying it's all about killing your own people is a bit of an exaggeration, because a traitor can't really be considered 'one of your own'. But this would be an organization that belongs to special operations or espionage.

They definitely won't be very popular.

Nobody likes being targeted by an organization like this.

Because they've got their eyes on me.

Nothing good is coming from here.

As for MEI herself, she felt that she had been targeted at least twice, or more than twice.

So...

"I'd like to meet up with Durandal for tea and snacks, and talk about life," MEI said. "What do you say? Is that not allowed?"

Whether you believe it or not is hard to say.

But Rita was clearly thinking, 'I don't believe you! You're a really bad guy.'

"Captain Durandal," Rita said with a slight smile, "She's probably been busy lately. But why did Doctor Mei suddenly decide to have tea and snacks with Captain Durandal and chat about life?"

"Because of the time I stood her up," MEI said. "Have you forgotten? It shouldn't have been more than a few days, right?"

"When we met in Disni, didn't I say I was going to take Durandal and the others around Changkong City?"

"So it was delayed because of the Hi-Fyūmaru incident?"

"I feel really bad about this."

So that's why~

"I plan," MEI said, "To invite your captain over for a meal and drinks to express my apology."

"You should know that people in China love to express their feelings through a meal."

"I know that," Rita said. "I'm familiar with this custom in China."

But Doctor Mei, are you really going to use it to express emotions?

Oh, so what you're expressing might not be an apology, but rather revenge?

Rita, for one, would never believe MEI's explanation. An apology? Impossible! With MEI's intelligence, how could she not guess Durandal's true purpose in coming to Changkong City?

Expressing apologies? Doctor, you're really quite wicked.

Of course, we can't say that now.

As the saying goes, "Leave a way out for others, so you might want to see them again in the future."

Especially now that we see each other all the time.

"However," Rita said with a slight smile, "Captain Durandal didn't seem to care about this at all. So it's perfectly fine."

I will help convey your apologies.

"If nothing else."

"Then you go ahead with your work."

After saying that Rita immediately slipped out of MEI's laboratory.

"Hmm..." MEI muttered to herself, holding her coffee cup, "It looks like it's going to be quite troublesome."

"Pseudo-A grade, what does 'pseudo-A' mean?"

Does it mean it doesn't reach Grade A, or it exceeds Grade A but is still placed at Grade A?

"A truly strange explanation."

"But this Durandal ..." MEI said, sipping her coffee, "I need to find a way to bring her over!"

"But this Mustard Herring Puffs..."

"We could try making it out in advance."

MEI's little kitchen has started working.

At this moment, Wendy...

"We're doomed!!!" Wendy covered her face and squatted in a pavilion at school.

"We're doomed... Everyone saw that, right?!"

"Everyone..."

What happened this morning really alarmed the whole school!

Even if Wendy already knows this, not everyone in the school that trains Valkyrie can become Valkyrie, and not everyone knows about Valkyrie.

They will eventually go down different paths from themselves.

But...

What I did this morning was so embarrassing!

As a result, the teacher had to suspend her from classes and arrange for a psychological counselor to help Wendy with her psychological problems.

But... Wendy doesn't have any psychological problems at all!

It's just that I'm a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur) and I want to become Valkyrie!

But this is something that can't be said out loud!

"Waaah!" Wendy said, covering her face. "I feel like I can't go back to the classroom."

"However... however... however, thinking about what the doctor said, it still makes a lot of sense."

"Wendy! Wendy! You're the one who's going to save the world!"

Sometimes it's not just me who's wrong, it's the whole world!

"Aaaaaah!" Wendy suddenly jumped up, clutching her chest, and said, "Ah! I feel... I feel like my heart is beating uncontrollably!"

"This whirlwind-like pulsation... could it be that my ability to control the wind is truly about to awaken?"

"The wind is howling~~~~~"

"Let's just forget about it..."

"Waaaah..." Wendy covered her face again and squatted down, muttering to herself, "It feels... it feels so cringeworthy..."

"Did all Valkyrie go through this process?"

Wendy was unaware of what was happening. She stood up and looked around at everything in a daze, as if she had lost her purpose.

Then she saw a familiar figure running out from a familiar place.

"That's..." Wendy muttered to herself, looking at the familiar figure and place, "Isn't that the maid teacher from school?"

"Why... why is she in the doctor's lab?"
