Sigfried's eyes snapped open, and his expression turned extremely grim...
"It's fine. I already sealed Sirin's consciousness. As long as we control the rate at which Kiana grows stronger, Sirin's consciousness will have a hard time awakening. But..."
Ling Feng thought for a moment before saying, "I think Theresa will probably leave Schicksal soon and go to the Far East Branch to establish her own faction. So if you discover that Sirin's consciousness inside Kiana is beginning to awaken, you can send Kiana to Theresa. Theresa will definitely take good care of her niece."
"It seems you know quite a lot."
Sigfried silently watched Ling Feng. Theresa had told him that she planned to leave headquarters, but she apparently had not told anyone else. He had not expected Ling Feng to know as well.
"Well, I may know a lot, but I'm just a passerby, or perhaps a traveler. Anyway..."
Ling Feng touched his mask and smiled faintly. "Once the matter with Gaia is over, I'll return with Ein. If you run into any difficulties in the future, you can come to Anti-Entropy and find us."
"Hmph."
Sigfried smiled faintly and walked forward. At the same time, he turned back to glance at Ling Feng and said with a smile, "Thanks, kid."
"You're welcome... Father... in-law..."
Ling Feng said those last two words very quietly. At the same time, his feelings were complicated. Kiana, True Kiana... am I really doing the right thing?

The next day, news of Sigfried's defection spread throughout headquarters. He had also taken the Kaslana family's Divine Key, Tengu's Judgment.
Otto did not seem surprised by this at all. He calmly sat in his office
