Someone in Honkai Impact 3rd Finds a Kiana - Chapter 2

Under Lin Nai's subtle gaze, the chopsticks in Kiana's hand seemed to have a mind of their own, twitching.

"Here."

"Ah, thanks... Huh?"

Kiana looked at the fork in her hand and blinked. Didn't she have a fork right here?!

Lin Nai: Who eats ramen with a fork? It's not instant noodles!

Lin Nai slowly ate his noodles.

Meanwhile, Kiana was devouring hers like a storm.

Mainly, the noodles were just too delicious, her taste buds were completely awakened!

Wuwuwu!

After roughing it for a while, she found a kind person!

Thinking this, Kiana felt like crying.

"So, shall we introduce ourselves?"

Lin Nai put down his chopsticks. He felt the person in front of him looked familiar, but he couldn't recall who it was.

"I'm Kiana Kaslana! And you?"

"Lin Nai."

"Um, Lin Nai, did you bring me back here?"

"What else? There's no one else here, is there?"

"Ah... Where are your parents?"

"Not in this world."

"I'm sorry..." Kiana opened her mouth and said apologetically.

Lin Nai shook his head. They were indeed not in this world. After all, even he wasn't exactly from this world.

Chapter 2: The Kaslana Big Eater!

"I see... So, you're looking for your father?"

Lin Nai, while cooking ramen, revealed a look of sudden realization.

Kiana, still furiously slurping ramen, nodded.

It would have been better if one ignored the pile of about six large bowls next to her.

Hmm...

Lin Nai felt like he had rescued a big eater.

By the way, are all Kaslana family members really able to eat so much?

Or is it just Kiana?

Since Kiana was full, Lin Nai took her to the hotel kitchen.

He cooked while Kiana ate.

Of course, he paid for the use of the kitchen!

Because he was undocumented, Lin Nai had many things to consider.

He didn't really care much about money.

He had already bribed the thugs and gangsters in this city.

So, he was quite wealthy.

"So, have you seen him? An old man with white hair and a severed arm... Hmm, he often likes to go to bars to see pretty older ladies!"

Kiana asked Lin Nai while stuffing her face with noodles.

"Ah... I haven't seen him."

Lin Nai thought carefully and finally shook his head.

The only white-haired person he had met since arriving in this world was Kiana in front of him.

"I see..." Although she had expected it, Kiana couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Her dad had gone off somewhere.

Lin Nai cooked ramen and glanced at Kiana, who was slumped over the table.

After their conversation, He finally remembered who she was.

Kiana Kaslana, also known as K423.

He hadn't played much of Honkai Impact 3rd. He heard there were too many sad moments, so he gave up.

But he had probably heard a little bit.

Alone...

He was alone now too.

Placing the cooked noodles in front of Kiana, Lin Nai, who was deep in thought, sat down in a chair.

Kiana said sheepishly, "Sorry, I can't actually eat this much..."

It was mainly because she had been living rough for a few days.

She was just too hungry.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have passed out in an alley and not woken up even in the rain...

"Mhm..."

Lin Nai replied absentmindedly, staring at his hand.

He was wondering if he should go somewhere else, look around.

If this really was Honkai, then he couldn't stay here forever.

There were too many blades.

So he had to find a way to find the blades and then break them himself.

If he couldn't break them, then that was that.

Besides, he also wanted to see more of the scenery elsewhere.

Although, he didn't know where he should go or what he should do right now.

"Lin Nai, Lin Nai!"

"Huh? Ah, what is it? Finished eating?"

"Ah... yes, no, no, no! That's not what I wanted to say!"

Kiana shook her head frantically, looking at Lin Nai in front of her. "Why did you suddenly zone out?"

"Thinking about something..."

"I see... Right, if you're alone, how do you pay for the hotel?"

"Robbery."

"Huh?"

Kiana froze on the spot, blinking her eyes, feeling her brain vibrate.

Kiana: Mom, I'm scared...

"To be precise, someone tried to rob me, and I robbed them back."

Lin Nai picked up Kiana's bowl and poured all the remaining noodles from the pot into it.

After all, at his age, being in a foreign land was very dangerous.

It was normal to be targeted.

"Of course, I, Lin, am not a demon. At most, I'd just make them spend the night on a lamppost in their underwear."

Lin Nai: I'm not a demon either. Those who mess with me... at most, I'll make them socially dead.

Kiana didn't understand, but Kiana was greatly shocked!

Kiana felt that even her dad wouldn't do something like that, or act like that.

Kiana sipped the soup, "I see... But you can't just use the hotel kitchen?"

"Who knows? Maybe because I'm undocumented," Lin Nai shrugged.

He was undocumented in this world.

"Undocumented?"

"Yeah, undocumented. No ID or passport. After all, I don't look like anyone from here."

"That's true..."

Kiana sized Lin Nai up. He really was different from most people she had met.

Lin Nai yawned, propping his face up with one hand. "Speaking of which, do you have anywhere to go?"

"No..."

Kiana shook her head.

She was looking for her father. Where could she go?

Oh...

If she really had to say where she could go, there was probably one place.

Like under a bridge.

Looking at the sunny, happy little girl in front of him, Lin Nai didn't have the heart to let her wander.

The other party was really just a child.

Lin Nai wanted to help in any way they could.

"How about this, I'll get you a room tonight so you can stay here."

"Eh! No, no!" Kiana shook her head repeatedly, refusing Lin Nai's kind offer.

Sensing Lin Nai's surprised gaze.

Kiana flashed a bright smile, "Lin Nai, you've already treated me to so much food, there's no need to spend so much more money."

Kiana was quite smart.

Especially when she was on the streets, her mind was still sharp.

It only took a little thought to realize that if borrowing a hotel kitchen cost money, then staying in a hotel would definitely cost even more.

After all, Kiana was also undocumented, and it was possible she might have to pay even more.

She had already accepted Lin Nai's kindness...

If this continued...

"It's fine," Lin Nai shook their head. "Honestly, I don't really care about money, at least not right now."

"Besides, letting you, such a small person, wander around alone... honestly, I'd feel a bit guilty."

"You're not that old... Ah, how about this!"

Kiana mumbled softly, her mind racing, and then said:

"I'll stay in your room, and tonight, let me sleep on the sofa, okay?"

"See, this way we save money, and I don't have to wander the streets!"
