Chapter 127

Shen Gonglin bared his teeth, trying to scare Wendy. These words made Wendy realize something. She looked around at her surroundings. This shouldn't be Heaven; Heaven wouldn't have coal mines. Had she not died? Why was Shen Gonglin here? Had he saved her? And the feeling in her body... it was somewhat like when she couldn't sleep at night when she was healthy... but it also seemed different. This was much stronger. How strange.

"How about it? Try to move around. Your legs might feel a little weak. I've been there, so I know what that feeling is like."

Durandal reached out and helped Wendy out of the experimental chamber. The girl staggered and couldn't walk on her own. Her Gem of Desire had restored her ability to walk, but she still couldn't stand up now, probably because of the side effects of Shen Gonglin's vampirism. Durandal was very experienced in this matter; no one understood this feeling better than her.

"Thank you... Eh, you are... the strongest Valkyrie, Durandal?"

Although still completely confused, Wendy subconsciously thanked the girl beside her. Leaning against the bed, her eyes brimming with surprise, she could feel her body rapidly recovering, though she couldn't stand. She could stand up and walk freely again, and the feeling of constantly battling the Gem of Desire had disappeared. She couldn't wait to share her joy with others, but when she focused her attention on the girl beside her, she realized who it was. Although she had never seen her in person, she remembered Durandal's appearance clearly. Durandal, the pinnacle of all Valkyrie, the strongest Valkyrie —how could she be here?

"Yes, it's Durandal. If you want an autographed photo, it's 100 yuan per photo. If you pay extra, I can pose her in a specific way. Just let me know in private when you ask me to tell you what pose you want. I'll pay you back as well. I'm her manager... Alright, please also settle the medical bills for the injury on your leg. 1,000 yuan will do."

He knelt down and applied several bandages to Wendy's leg. When he removed the Gem of Desire earlier, he had caused a wound on her calf. It took Shen Gonglin several bandages to completely cover the wound. He looked at his masterpiece with great satisfaction. He could make Bronya's image out of bandages. It wouldn't be unreasonable for him to charge her a thousand dollars. Also, Durandal seemed to be very popular among the Valkyrie. Shen Gonglin had a good business sense. He thought this matter had potential.

"When did you become my manager? I don't remember ever becoming an idol. And why is it only 100 yen? It should at least be... And why do you charge others 1000 yen for a few band-aids? How desperate for money are you? My bank card is still with you, isn't it? Oh, speaking of which, Shen Gonglin, you should return my bank card..."

She felt as if she was about to turn into a complaining machine. When she was next to Jingu Rin, Youlandel felt that her style of painting was about to change. Apart from biting people, does this guy only have money left in his head? Can he sell a signed photo of himself for a hundred yuan? And after hearing what he said, he planned to keep a penny without giving it to himself. Really, money is so important to him... It is indeed very important. This time traveling alone, Youlandel finally experienced the role of money. When talking about this, Youlandel remembered her bank card.

Rita had given her bank card to Shen Gonglin. It was her own business to give it to Shen Gonglin, but shouldn't she at least return her share? Durandal doesn't even dare to go shopping now, and she can't go to the gym. As the strongest Valkyrie, Durandal feels like she has no dignity at all.

Can you believe that he even borrowed money from his subordinates to buy a jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe)?

"Oh right, now that Wendy's been rescued, shouldn't we go and meet up with Mei?"

Shen Gonglin suddenly remembered this matter. Wendy's matter has been resolved, and now all that's left is to reunite and return to St. Freya. She wondered how Bronya was doing and needed to hurry back to check on her.

"Shen Gonglin, my bank card..."

Durandal continued, saying that the bank card really needed to be returned, otherwise she would have to borrow money from Shen Gonglin to buy Rin a pancake. It was fine once or twice, but if Alvit probably have a problem with it.

"Durandal, let's go quickly. I'll take care of Wendy ... No, you can help her. I can't carry her... Hey, here's the wheelchair. Perfect. Wendy, get in, get in."

Shen Gonglin continued to change the subject, which made the girl who had just woken up roll her eyes. It was as if she was heavy. It was clearly Shen Gonglin's own body that was weak. The girl sat in the wheelchair and touched the thing that had been with her for so long with some emotion. "Thank you for helping me for so long, but from now on, I will never need it again."

"No, Shen Gonglin, you've taken my bank card..."

Durandal wanted to say something, but Shen Gonglin had already pushed the wheelchair away. He displayed his A+ level driving skills to the fullest, and almost instantly he and Wendy disappeared from sight. Only Wendy's girlish screams could be faintly heard. What's wrong with this guy? Why won't he let me finish speaking? I asked for the bank card so I could buy him something. It's so strange. Could there be something wrong with my bank card?

"Shen Gonglin, don't run around... The exit isn't that way, I told you not to run around... Honestly... I should have tied you with a rope!"

Without time to think further, Durandal sighed. If she didn't catch up soon, who knew if this guy would get lost? No, he definitely would. Sometimes Shen Gonglin very reliable, but most of the time he was like an idiot. There was no other way but to follow him.

Chapter 495 Encountering a Maid

In another corner of ME Company, Theresa led the Valkyrie Fifth Squad, rushing down the corridor. Kiana carried the unconscious Bronya on her back, while Himeko supported Mei as they followed behind Theresa. They were heading to meet up with Shen Gonglin. Although he had suggested splitting into two groups and letting them retreat first, given his terrible sense of direction and unreliable nature, Theresa and the others decided to come in and find Shen Gonglin anyway. After all, a family should be together, and it would be too dangerous for Shen Gonglin to be alone here.

"Theresa, which direction is the lab where Wendy is being held? I have serious doubts about whether Shen Gonglin can really find Wendy."

Carrying Bronya didn't affect Kiana's speed at all, probably because she trained by carrying Shen Gonglin all day. Bronya's weight was about the same as Shen Gonglin's, and Kiana felt no pressure carrying her. What worried him was Shen Gonglin's current situation. He was really not at ease letting her act alone. Don't be fooled by his S-rank status. In Kiana's heart, he was like a house cat that would definitely die if let out.

"It's not like you're the only one worried... Don't worry, we'll be fine once we get there. Kiana, you don't need to worry too much either. Don't overthink things when you're on a mission. Learn from Himeko; a veteran Valkyrie should be as focused as she is."

Comforting her niece, Theresa, despite her loli-like appearance, was surprisingly reliable during missions. She pointed to Himeko's side, saying that Kiana was still a silly little deer who had only recently become Valkyrie. Once she matured, she would be able to stand on her own.

"... You mean, like her?"

Kiana hesitated and pointed at Himeko. At that moment, the crimson Valkyrie's muttering voice drifted over. All that could be heard was a hissing sound as Himeko breathed heavily, seemingly lost in thought. From Theresa's distance, she could only catch glimpses of something like "hero saves the damsel in distress, repays a debt of gratitude," and "big sister's wall slam." Although she couldn't make out what it was, Theresa was a little scared looking at Himeko's expression as she was being supported by Mei. What was wrong with this reliable Valkyrie?

Why is even she acting so strangely?

"...Never mind, Theresa, don't take Himeko as your role model. There are many other people you can learn from, like Durandal ...No, she's too serious. If you become so rigid and preachy, Kiana, I'll cry. As for Rita ...Although she's undoubtedly Valkyrie, she seems a bit abnormal in other ways... Ugh, so annoying. Anyway, Kiana, you absolutely have to learn from her."

For a moment, Kiana couldn't really find a good role model. Theresa, who was walking at the front, was scratching her head in frustration. Just then, the sound of high heels rang out, and an elegant figure walked out from around the corner.

"Good evening, Lady Theresa. What a coincidence to meet you here... Also, I think I heard you say my name just now. Do you have some kind of problem with me?"

The maid Theresa had just been talking about appeared before everyone's eyes. Although she was holding a scythe instead of a broom, Rita still possessed the elegance expected of a maid. She bowed slightly to Theresa, but her eyes, hidden by her rose-colored hair, gleamed with a sinister light. What pervert! She hadn't been perverted towards Theresa in a long time. Now, the maid's mind was entirely on Shen Gonglin. Even the charm on her phone had become Shen Gonglin. Theresa was a thing of the past. Why was she spreading rumors about her? What if Shen Gonglin heard it and actually believed it?

Rita, what are you doing here?

Theresa looked at Rita with great surprise at her appearing where she shouldn't have. She had thought that Rita would come, but when she actually saw her, Theresa still couldn't believe it. Wasn't this maid supposed to be following her grandfather's orders? This mission was to be carried out entirely by the Far East Branch, so how come she actually came?

"I just happened to be here on vacation, and then I saw the Anti-Entropy Headquarters come in to investigate as a Valkyrie... Durandal is here too."

Rita said this, and Theresa's lips twitched. Who would believe such a thing? They're even vacationing at the Anti-Entropy headquarters? So it's only natural that Cocolia and the others are spending the New Year on the Schicksal Floating Island? There seemed to be a lot of misunderstandings in Rita's words, but another name she mentioned made Theresa pay attention: Durandal. She's here too?

"Durandal really came? Is she traveling with you?"

If Durandal really came, it would indeed be good news for Theresa and the others. Although she didn't want to admit it, Theresa felt much more at ease after hearing her name. That woman's combat power was definitely top-notch. Wait a minute, if Durandal really came, then she, Rita, Durandal, and Shen Gonglin... all the S-ranks of Schicksal would be gathered together! This would be even more lively than the New Year. This kind of combat power is already at the continental level. A mere Anti-Entropy Headquarters is really not enough for them to mess with.

"No, Durandal went to steal some food, and she asked me to guard the door for her."

Whether it was Theresa's imagination or not, she sensed a deep resentment in Rita's voice. The maid was indeed resentful; it was a truly heartbreaking feeling. She had arrived at the same time as her, yet she was being bullied by someone of higher rank. It was hard to imagine that Durandal would do something like this, abusing her power for personal gain, but she had actually done it. Rita felt like she was coming home from work, ready to be intimate with her husband, only to be confronted by his mistress at the door, and she had to stand guard for them. This feeling of being bullied was something Rita, the pure-hearted warrior, simply couldn't accept.

So she came in; she didn't want to just stay outside and watch the door, she had to get involved too.

"Stealing food? Guarding the door? What does this mean?"

Rita couldn't understand a word Theresa said, but the innocent pseudo-loli couldn't understand either. The others behind her did sense something was wrong—stealing food... This has nothing to do with Shen Gonglin.

"To put it simply, Durandal went to find Shen Gonglin, and I came in to help, but unfortunately I encountered some minor trouble before I even found them."

The maid glanced back and heard a faint rumbling sound coming from there. They were catching up. What a nuisance.

Chapter 496

Trouble? What kind of trouble?

Theresa and the others were full of questions, but before she could even ask, a violent explosion came from the other side of the passage. The walls were crushed, and solid steel was torn apart as if it were made of paper. A gigantic robot, many times larger than a normal mech, rushed out with overwhelming force. Was this the trouble Rita was talking about?

"You call this a minor inconvenience?"

Theresa stared in disbelief at the massive mech charging towards them with overwhelming force. Theresa had never seen anything like it before, let alone Kiana and the others. It was simply unbelievable that Anti-Entropy possessed such a weapon. This was something that no human could possibly destroy.

"Yes, after all, I don't have any hands free to deal with it. Without the Valkyrie combat mech, even I'm a bit helpless."

Rita placed her hands on her lower abdomen, even leaning her scythe against the wall. To call her Valkyrie with explosive combat power would be more like calling her a harmless maid on a picnic searching for her lost master. Even in this situation, the faint smile on Rita's face did not change in the slightest, as if nothing in the world could affect her elegance.

Why are you so calm and elegant at a time like this? Was she really being chased by this thing?

There was no time to consider such questions. Theresa and the others were on high alert, and the giant mech had already rushed in front of them. It seemed that they had to deal with this guy before going to find Shen Gonglin. Really, this was the Anti-Entropy Headquarters, with one surprise after another coming out.

What's that sound? It's so noisy!

Pushing the wheelchair around, Shen Gonglin was probably already lost if Durandal hadn't caught up in time. She successfully made Durandal forget about the bank card issue earlier. Shen Gonglin pushed Wendy beside Durandal, searching for a way out. Just then, they faintly heard the sound of metal colliding and breaking. Shen Gonglin and Durandal had excellent hearing and they both caught the sound. What was going on? Was someone fighting over there?

If it's a battle, then it can only be Theresa and the others. What's going on? Weren't they already sent out? Did something hold them up? Shen Gonglin couldn't help but worry. This noise didn't sound like a minor disturbance.

"What, do you want to go take a look?"

Durandal came only to rescue Shen Gonglin... no, just for a vacation. She didn't care about anything else. Didn't you see that when the Gem of Desire was taken, she didn't choose to take it back but stayed by Shen Gonglin's side? In Durandal's heart, even the Herrscher Gem was less important than Shen Gonglin, let alone this commotion from who-knows-where. Right now, she wanted to take Shen Gonglin back and send her back to St. Freya, but if Shen Gonglin wanted to go, she was fine with that too.

"Well, let's go check it out. Maybe Theresa and Kiana are in trouble. We can help them if we go."

Shen Gonglin nodded, and upon hearing this, Durandal's expression remained unchanged, but her eyes widened slightly at Shen Gonglin. Oh, so that's why. Shen Gonglin is really kind.

"Are you sure you can help? You're almost at your limit right now, and you just lost so much blood. Are you sure you're going to help or make things worse?"

Durandal noticed Shen Gonglin's condition. Although he tried to keep his spirits up, the fatigue in his eyes couldn't be hidden from her. Shen Gonglin was already mentally exhausted during the battle for Bronya's brain, and with the constant fighting, using the power of the Time Spirit, and giving Wendy a blood transfusion, he was indeed at his limit. Shen Gonglin was actually quite surprised that Durandal Rin could fight so hard.

"Isn't it you who's here? If it weren't for you, would I have acted so recklessly? Durandal, whatever happens from now on, I'm counting on you."

She looked up and smiled at Durandal. It was indeed because of this that Shen Gonglin was recklessly expending her stamina. Even if she couldn't hold on and collapsed, Durandal would catch her. This woman was incredibly powerful. Back in the academy, if she hadn't absorbed Durandal's blood, rendering her unable to fight, even Emperor-class Honkai Beast wouldn't have been a match for her. To be honest, even Shen Gonglin herself didn't know if she was her opponent. At least, without using Angel Mode, Shen Gonglin didn't really have the confidence to fight her.

But she could pin her down on the bed and leave her powerless to resist; that was a certainty. So, in the end, she was the stronger one. Shen Gonglin had a very high competitive spirit.

"Seriously, do I owe you something...? I traveled all the way here to save you, took economy class and squeezed onto the bus, and now I have to fight for you... Tsk, Shen Gonglin, do you really think I owe you anything?"

Even Durandal herself was confused. She muttered resentfully, while Wendy, sitting in her wheelchair, listened intently to the conversation between Shen Gonglin and the strongest Valkyrie. He was truly amazing; not only had he saved her, but he also knew Durandal. Judging from their conversation, they were quite familiar with each other, and this feeling... Durandal must really like Shen Gonglin. However, Shen Gonglin seemed to have good relationships with many girls— Sister Bronya, Mei, and Kiana... Occasionally, while being studied, she would overhear the researchers say that Shen Gonglin had slept with several people from Anti-Entropy... This must be a rumor, or she must have misheard. Shen Gonglin didn't seem like the type to do that kind of thing.

"Whether you owe me or not, you know it yourself. You cheated me back at headquarters, so consider this compensation... At worst, I'll treat you to dinner when I get back."

Unsure of what Wendy was thinking, Shen Gonglin casually chatted with Durandal to pass the time. Come to think of it, Durandal had indeed been quite good to her. Although Durandal had tricked her at headquarters by causing the transport pod to fall and nearly scaring her to death from her fear of heights, which was indeed despicable, this could be considered retribution. This time, she really needed to thank Durandal properly. She would treat her to dinner when they got back, and of course, she would pay.

"You said it yourself... Come on up, let's get this done quickly and then go home."

Her interest was clearly rising. Durandal grabbed Shen Gonglin and put him in the wheelchair as well. Wendy and Shen Gonglin squeezed into the small wheelchair. Durandal took a deep breath and pushed the wheelchair, hurry up and finish the fight!

Chapter 497 The Strongest Strength

"Hey, Ms. Theresa, do you like my new gift? It's a bit of a shame I can't meet you in person, but it's wonderful to have my best toy to entertain you. Why do you look a little disheveled?"

Cocolia's voice came from an unknown broadcast. She had already obtained the Gem of Desire and left the ME Company building. The huge mech she left behind was her last trump card. Although it was a bit of a pity to abandon it now, it was only a prototype after all. It was important to obtain important data in actual combat, and she was happy to cause some trouble for these Valkyrie.

"Cocolia, no wonder everyone says you're Vixen. You think you can get in our way with this? You're sorely mistaken. I can take this piece of junk apart in one go!"

Holding a golden spear in her small hand, Theresa planted her cross in the ground and retrieved the weapon from it to fight the giant robot in front of her. She felt annoyed as soon as she heard Cocolia's voice. Did she think her plan had succeeded? All she got was the Gem of Desire. Who would want that kind of broken stone? Theresa certainly didn't want it at all.

[This isn't some junk, please call it MSR.7 Father. Please play with my new creation for a while, and hopefully you can help me collect enough data. Thank you.]

Cocolia's voice stopped abruptly, indicating that the woman had completely retreated. Theresa remained silent. Although she had considered capturing the woman here, it now seemed unrealistic. She should focus on dealing with the situation at hand. Fortunately, Rita and Himeko were here; otherwise, she alone wouldn't have been able to protect the three little ones.

The headmistress's gaze shifted slightly. The maid over there strolled leisurely, like an elegant maid preparing afternoon tea in a courtyard. With a dark purple scythe in her hand, she effortlessly deflected the attack. Meanwhile, Himeko was using her extensive combat experience to distract the Father Mech. Kiana had to protect the unconscious Bronya and Mei, hiding behind her. This mecha was indeed quite troublesome, but given a little time, dismantling it wouldn't be difficult.

Just as Theresa was deep in thought, the sound of tires driving over the ground suddenly came. Even in the midst of the fierce battle, Theresa and Rita noticed the passage over there. Who was that sound...?

"My God! Anti-Entropy actually has something like this? I've discovered that Anti-Entropy really understands people's hearts. This is undoubtedly the romance of men, the biggest and strongest romance of men that I've ever seen. Giant robots and all that, Anti-Entropy understands it so well. Anti-Entropy is forever a god!"

The Valkyrie present were all too familiar with that voice. Everyone's attention turned to the source of the sound. There, sitting in her Shen Gonglin, was looking at the Father with a dazzling light in her eyes. Mecha was a man's romance, and this giant mecha was undoubtedly dancing around in Shen Gonglin's good spot. No, she had to have this. She really wanted this.

Shen Gonglin? What's he doing here, and sitting next to him... is Wendy?

Cocolia said she had already removed the Gem of Desire, so why is Wendy still alive and well? Is it because of Shen Gonglin? As expected, this girl is someone you can rely on.

The sudden appearance of Shen Gonglin on the battlefield attracted everyone's attention, and the Heavenly Father also targeted him. The mecha's huge arm swung directly at Shen Gonglin. Seeing the Heavenly Father's attack, Theresa subconsciously ran towards Shen Gonglin. Although she had short legs, Theresa's mobility in battle was not to be underestimated. However, someone was faster than her.

A loud clang of steel clashing rang out as Durandal, standing behind Shen Gonglin's wheelchair, made her move. She swung her black knight's lance and slapped away the Father's massive mechanical hand. At this moment, the most powerful Valkyrie's prowess was on full display. Upon seeing her, Theresa, Rita, Himeko, and Kiana all stopped in their tracks. This woman had actually blocked the mecha's attack in an instant. Was she really human?

Or is this the true strength that the strongest Valkyrie should possess? Durandal, truly worthy of being called Schicksal's strongest Valkyrie.

"Go home and eat as soon as you're done fighting," the thought swirled in Durandal's mind. The girl took a deep breath, her black high heels slamming into the floor as she leaped high into the air. The black knight's lance flashed through the air, a single strike ending it all!

"Wait, Durandal, please don't damage this mecha! I've got my eye on it, it would be great to take it back and modify it."

Durandal's attack was poised to strike, but at that moment, Shen Gonglin's voice rang out. His words almost made Durandal twist her back. What nonsense was this guy spouting? It was like a brat who saw a small animal and wanted to take it home to raise. Could this thing be taken home and raised? What a reckless little rascal... Oh well, I'll just indulge him this once.

She had intended to reason with Shen Gonglin, but when Durandal turned around and saw his starry eyes, the strongest Valkyrie turned her head away in annoyance. Fine, fine, it doesn't matter anyway. Headquarters must want to study this latest Anti-Entropy technology, right? I'm doing this for the sake of Schicksal as a whole, not for Shen Gonglin!

She switched tactics in mid-air, Durandal launched an attack targeting the Father's control center. Her figure in black military uniform moved across the battlefield like a light butterfly. To her, this level of activity was hardly a battle; if anything, taking a stroll would be a more accurate description.

Like a beam of light that charged straight ahead, Durandal charged unimpeded before the Father. Like a majestic female knight, she faced the massive mech alone. Nothing could stop her now. After this battle, she could go home for dinner, right? Shen Gonglin had promised to treat her to a meal. She couldn't waste time on something as trivial as fighting. It was more important to think about what to eat. Shen Gonglin seemed to like jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes). Should she ask him to take her to eat some street food?

Sometimes I see my teammates from the Immortal Blade team eating spicy hot pot during breaks from missions. Should I go eat with them?

Chapter 498 Not on the Same Channel

Even with such thoughts swirling in her mind, Durandal's battle remained unaffected. Spicy hot pot was out of the question; Shen Gonglin simply couldn't handle spice. Making him eat it with her would only result in her personally sending him to the hospital. She'd rather think of something else.

Confident in her own strength, Durandal temporarily set aside the important question of what to eat upon returning. The girl raised her lance and launched a final charge against the enemy before her. The Father's attacks were utterly ineffective against her; both missile bombardments and the physical interference of the giant mechanical arm were completely blocked by Durandal's lance. Presumably, such a battle wouldn't yield any data, but Durandal didn't care. In her eyes, the only goal now was to dismantle this... no, to completely disable this mech!

A meteor streaked across the sky Durandal's lance pierced the thick steel plate of the mech. Despite its length, the lance was like a toothpick against the Father's massive size, unable to penetrate his armor. Durandal, with her extensive battlefield experience, knew this, but the battle was over.

Scorching flames erupted from the knight's lance, and the violent explosion directly destroyed the mech's operational system, eliminating any possibility of it going berserk. Under Durandal's relentless attacks, the Father was completely defeated. If it weren't for Shen Gonglin's desire... if Durandal hadn't thought this thing was worth taking back to Schicksal Headquarters for research, Durandal could have dealt with it in less than a minute, ten seconds would have sufficed.

"Wow... that's amazing! You defeated that giant robot with just one hit. You're really incredible..."

Kiana stared in disbelief at Durandal, who had just finished her battle. Although this girl always boasted about becoming the strongest Valkyrie, Kiana couldn't help but widen her eyes when she saw the strongest person in the world. Could there really be someone this strong? She was even more powerful than her own stinky old man! Although Durandal had been at the academy for a while, Kiana had never really interacted with her. After Durandal seemed aloof and difficult to get along with. It was only after witnessing her battle that Kiana realized the gap between herself and Durandal. Her goal of becoming the strongest Valkyrie seemed a little difficult to achieve.

"Miss Kiana, don't feel discouraged. This is Durandal. The reason I am S-rank is because my overall combat power surpasses that of ordinary Valkyrie, while the reason Durandal is S-rank is... because among Valkyrie, there is only S-rank."

Rita stood beside Kiana and whispered these words. Both she and Durandal could have scored 100 on the same test paper, but Durandal scored 100 because it was the highest score on the entire paper. No one knew Rita's strength better than Durandal. The strongest Valkyrie... perhaps only Shen Gonglin had ever tasted defeat.

After all, only he could suppress Durandal, and more than once. As expected of Shen Gonglin, Rita nodded. Without a doubt, he was the best in the world. Rita would praise him for life.

"Who, who feels defeated? I'm not defeated at all! One day, I'll become even better than her! As for you, do you think she's invincible? If that's the case, shouldn't you obediently step back and stay out of this mess?"

Kiana said, her voice trembling with fear, "So what if Durandal is strong? Becoming the strongest Valkyrie is Kiana's goal. Sooner or later, I will become even stronger than her. Kiana is full of confidence in this. Her earlier hesitation and doubt were like fleeting clouds. Kiana will not admit defeat."

"Miss Kiana, as a woman, combat ability isn't everything. I only said that Durandal's abilities as a Valkyrie are impeccable, but in other aspects... Heh, this isn't the Amazonian era anymore. Just because you're the strongest doesn't guarantee you the best spoils."

The maid looked at Kiana with some surprise. This little girl was no simpleton. She had thought that her words would make Kiana back down a bit, but it seemed to have the opposite effect. Kiana seemed even more enthusiastic. But that didn't matter. As an S-rank Valkyrie, Rita also had her own confidence. Not only was Valkyrie, but she was also the number one maid in the world. The number one in the world with the number one in the world, that was the way of the world!

What nonsense is this woman spouting? I can't understand a word she's saying. What does "Amazonian era" even mean? I have absolutely no idea.

Kiana couldn't understand what Rita was saying, but Kiana still forced herself to pretend that she understood perfectly. The girl puffed out her chest and nodded, "Yes, Rita makes a lot of sense."

"Yes, that's right. Just like the custom among cannibalistic tribes in the Indians, they usually roast and eat food after they catch it. I feel a deep disgust for such a custom... I abhor it. Yes, that's right."

Kiana spoke these words with a serious expression, while Rita slowly tilted her head. For the first time, the maid questioned her own communication skills. Was it her problem? Why couldn't she understand what Kiana was trying to say? Was she implying something? Could it be that she knew that Kiana had a dream about licking Shen Gonglin's entire body?
