It's Kiana Time!

[Hu Tao: Thanks for the invite, I'm at Mt. Wuwang]

[Xiangling: I see, that's fine, Xingqiu and Chongyun will do]

[Chongyun: Thanks for the invite, but I have a Pure Yang constitution, can't eat Jueyun Chili]

[Xiangling: Then forget it, but Xingqiu, you're fine, right?]

[Xingqiu: I...]

[Chongyun: Xingqiu is reading at Wanwen Bookstore, he's got plenty of free time.]

[Xingqiu: Chongyun, you!]

[Xiangling: Great, Xingqiu, I'll come find you right now.]

[Xingqiu: ...]

At that moment, Xingqiu, who was reading at Wanwen Bookstore, shot a fierce glare at Chongyun, who was eating a popsicle beside him. His eyes seemed to say: I treated you like a brother, and you sold me out.

Chongyun felt a bit embarrassed under that stare, so he chose to...

"I heard there's been an Evil Spirit haunting Guili Plains lately. As an exorcist, I must go and vanquish it." With that, he bolted off.

Xingqiu was left behind, like a prisoner awaiting judgment, bracing himself for Xiangling's arrival...

The video continued.

Mei looked at Fu Hua, who was meditating on the bed. "Class President, it's the last day! Aren't you going to finish your homework!?"

Fu Hua replied calmly, "I finished it on the first day of break."

Mei was stunned that Fu Hua had finished her homework so early. "You're way too disciplined, aren't you!?"

-------Separator----------

Mei sat at her desk, staring at the small pile of homework left. She thought, "Originally, Teacher Himeko assigned one set per day, so thirty sets total. Since Class President could finish thirty sets in one day, and I only have ten left, there's no reason I can't finish them!"

Mei slapped her own cheek hard to psych herself up. "It's eight in the morning now. One set per hour, I'll be done before dinner no problem."

"If you want to eat dinner, Bronya needs to finish two sets per hour," Bronya thought as she sat at her desk. It seemed there was only one way.

"Secret Technique: Project Bunny!"

A robot suddenly appeared behind Bronya—only its upper half, with a cannon mounted on one arm and a pen in the other hand. This was Project Bunny.

Bronya and Project Bunny started writing at the same time, two pens moving in tandem.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Kiana hadn't written a single stroke, and she was even more impressive.

"Back then, Class President finished thirty sets in a day. For me, Kiana, finishing them in half a day is no problem!" With that, Kiana's art style shifted dramatically. She pulled out three pens at once and struck a pose of invincibility. Kiana.

"Ora Ora Ora! It's Kiana time!"

At that moment, the three little ones' homework-cramming battle had just begun.

[Kiana: Why did my art style suddenly get so weird!]

[Mei: But that version of Kiana does feel kind of invincible.]

[Kiana: That's right, this young lady is just that invincible.]

[Murata Himeko: Oh? Then, invincible Kiana, can you tell your teacher if you've finished your homework?]

[Kiana: Uh, well...]

[Murata Himeko: If you haven't, I don't mind giving you some Bitter Gourd Juice, just like in the video.]

[Kiana: Himeko, I'll go do my homework right now!]

[Murata Himeko: It's Teacher Himeko, not Himeko.]

[Murata Himeko: And that goes for you too, Mei and Bronya.]

[Mei/Bronya: Yes, Teacher Himeko]

(Himeko from Honkai: Star Rail will be called Himeko from now on, and Himeko from Honkai Impact will be called Murata Himeko)

[Jean: Homework? Maybe I could assign some to Klee.]

[Klee: Grand Master Jean, Klee doesn't want to do homework??o·(????????????)?o·?]

[Elysia: Oh my, what an adorable little one. I just want to hold her in my arms and rub those chubby little cheeks!]

10 hours later...

"Nngh~" Mei stretched lazily. "Finally done! Time to go cook for them."

As soon as Mei stepped out, she ran into Bronya, who looked noticeably thinner from cramming homework.

Just as they were celebrating finishing their work, they suddenly heard snoring coming from Kiana's room. The two of them looked at Kiana's room in alarm.

"Bronya has a bad feeling about this."

"Could it be..."

Mei and Bronya seemed to have guessed what was going on. They pushed open the door to Kiana's room, and what greeted their eyes was Kiana lying on the sofa in a very ungraceful sleeping position.

The homework in her hand and the three pens on the floor seemed to tell a story of their own...

"Kiana, wake up!"

"Did you finish your homework? How can you fall asleep here!?"

Hearing Mei and Bronya calling her, Kiana jolted awake.

"Crap, I've been gaming so much my sleep schedule's flipped!"

Kiana glanced at the clock and saw it was already six in the evening.

"Only six hours left today!"

But she quickly calmed down. "One set of homework takes an hour, but I'm not done yet!"

"Watch my Ultimate Skill, Dual Wielding, triple attack!"

Kiana grabbed three pens in each hand and unleashed the Kaslana Family's (probably) legendary homework technique, "6x Extreme Problem Solving!"

"My study soul is burning! It's Kiana time!"

The scene shifted—same spot, same posture, but somehow the pen in her hand had been replaced by a phone.

Kiana said smugly, "See how awesome I am?"

[Theresa: Kiana! Is this how you do your homework!?]

[Kiana: Auntie, you've got it wrong! I always finish my homework.]

[Theresa: Then bring your homework to me!]

[Kiana: Well...]

[Theresa: What's wrong? Is there a problem?]

[Kiana: Auntie, today's isn't done yet...]

[Theresa: Then what about yesterday's?]

[Murata Himeko: Yesterday's is with me.]

[Theresa: Then Himeko, bring me Kiana's homework.]

Theresa looked at the homework Himeko handed her, and the more she saw, the angrier she got.

[Theresa: Kiana, I won't say anything about you just picking all C's, but explain to me why your answers only have the word "Answer" written!]

[Kiana: Uh, well, Teacher Himeko taught me that.]

[Theresa @ Murata Himeko: Himeko, did you teach her this?]

[Murata Himeko: I told them that even if they don't know the answer, they should at least write "Answer" to show the teacher they tried—that way they might get partial credit. But I didn't say to write it for everything!]

[Kiana: But I didn't know any of the answers...]

[Theresa: Enough! Kiana, do your homework properly! And if you fail this month's exams again, your allowance for next month is gone!]

[Kiana: Yes, Auntie... (*?????)]
