Applying for the Job

"Aerial Split!"

Zhang Wei repeated each word clearly, a smug expression on his face.

He had practiced for a long time and could now perform it with masterful skill. Elysia and the others looked speechless. They had witnessed Zhang Wei's split skill before; it was certainly proficient.

But Zhang Wei, are you sure this is appropriate for a job posting?

"Ahem, this is the Valkyrie Academy, not a circus. Are you sure you're in the right place?" Despite feeling incredibly amused internally, the woman maintained a friendly demeanor and didn't immediately tell Zhang Wei to leave, showcasing her high level of composure.

"I'm not mistaken. Isn't the aerial split a basic skill for a Captain?" Zhang Wei feigned an expression of taking it for granted.

"Absolutely not!"

Before the woman could speak, Theresa, who was also present for the recruitment, turned red. She was already worried about finding talented individuals, and now her blood pressure was skyrocketing.

As an S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, she could be certain that Captains did not have such strange requirements. The Judas behind her began to stir. If Zhang Wei didn't explain himself properly, she wouldn't be polite and would immediately let Zhang Wei know the various ways Judas could be used.

"Everyone, please watch!"

Zhang Wei cleared his throat and then moved with light steps. To everyone's astonished gaze, Zhang Wei actually performed an aerial split, and his posture was even more standard than a split on the ground. He landed perfectly. Theresa's jaw nearly hit the floor. She thought he was joking, but she didn't expect him to actually be able to do it. Was he really here to be a Captain?

I feel like you could develop a career in the sports department. Captains don't need this skill. The Judas launcher silently retracted the S-rank Valkyrie Judas.

"Ahem, since you're here to apply for the Captain position, do you understand what a Captain does?" Theresa coughed lightly. The Far East Branch did indeed have warships, and St. Freya, which was closely related, would also send talent there in the future. The two were, in a sense, one.

"Of course, no one understands the Captain profession better than I do!" Zhang Wei said with full confidence. Having navigated the Sea of Quantum for so many years, riding the Hyperion through wind and waves, he naturally understood the duties of a Captain.

Theresa was a little surprised by Zhang Wei's confidence, so she gave the female examiner a look and signaled her to ask Zhang Wei some basic questions. If he passed, he would be qualified. As for becoming a Captain, it wasn't that easy; specific performance would be evaluated later.

"Very solid foundational knowledge. It seems you've read quite a few related books!" The female examiner said in surprise. The questions she asked were about the basic knowledge of warships. There were related books in the library, but the content was too complex and obscure, so very few people read them.

Zhang Wei's ability to answer fluently indicated his talent. Perhaps with a little systematic training, he could become a qualified Captain.

"Academy Head, what do you think?"

"Ah? Since you have no objections, then St. Freya welcomes you!" Theresa blinked, then immediately stood up. However, she didn't grow much taller. She came to Zhang Wei and looked up at him.

The title of Captain was easy to arrange. She could find someone from the Far East Branch to guide him. Once all the requirements were met, she could arrange it herself. As the Crown Prince of Schicksal, she had that qualification.

I really want to pat Theresa's little head!

Zhang Wei felt a tickle in his hands, but he controlled his restless hands with his strong willpower. Otherwise, he would be mistaken for a pervert and arrested.

"Academy Head, what about the salary..." Zhang Wei's lips curled up as he asked with feigned curiosity.

"We'll talk about it when you become a Captain!" Theresa's face instantly stiffened. Even with her conflict with Otto, she still had to ask her grandfather for money, otherwise, she wouldn't even be able to pay the staff's salaries.

"Alright!"

Zhang Wei suppressed his laughter and didn't expose Theresa's predicament.

Life at St. Freya should be very interesting. He could find opportunities to tease Theresa. She was so small; if he teased her a little, she might cry.

"My name is Welt Yang, and I'm here to apply for the history teacher position!" As the applicants one by one presented themselves, a steady voice rang out. The applicant had brown hair, brown eyes, and wore black-rimmed glasses.

Zhang Wei was speechless. Welt Yang, the leader of Anti-Entropy, was actually using his real name to openly come to his enemy's territory, and his appearance hadn't changed much either. He truly wasn't afraid of Otto saying something heartfelt and taking out the Herrscher core.

Didn't he see the light in Mobius's eyes almost uncontrollably shining?

This was the Herrscher of Reason, and moreover, a Herrscher who sided with humanity. What a valuable white mouse! She really wanted to put him on the experimental table and dissect and study him thoroughly.

But there was no rush for now; there would be plenty of opportunities later. Since he had come right to her doorstep, how could Mobius let him go? Such an excellent white mouse could be studied for a long time.

And Elysia was now looking at Welt with curiosity. The Herrschers of the current civilization were all influenced by her, but seeing them in person was still different. It was a pity he wasn't a cute beautiful girl, otherwise, she would definitely have had a good chat.

Welt, who was introducing himself, couldn't help but touch the location of his Herrscher core. Why did he feel a strange phantom pain, as if his heart was about to be gouged out at any moment?

Zhang Wei wouldn't stop him. Welt had a high probability of being backstabbed by Mobius. After all, a living Herrscher was an undeniable temptation for her. He could only offer his condolences to Yang Wokuo in advance.

This feels a bit familiar...

Theresa looked at Welt with a strange expression, feeling like she had seen this person somewhere a few years ago, but she couldn't recall. This was different from Zhang Wei's sense of familiarity. She was sure she had seen this brown-haired person a few years ago, and she had a deep impression of him.

However, she didn't think too much about it. Welt's knowledge reserve was truly rich. He could easily talk about some historical events that were rarely mentioned, as if he had truly experienced them. This made Theresa's eyes light up. St. Freya needed this kind of talent.

Perhaps only Otto would recognize his old friend at a glance. They had a life-and-death friendship, but Otto clearly wouldn't pay attention to every single person at St. Freya.

The recruitment went very smoothly. There were only a few male applicants, which was also normal, as men generally had lower Honkai Energy resistance than women. The first batch of faculty members for St. Freya was successfully recruited.

Theresa was also very happy. She could finally go back to lie in bed, drink bitter melon juice, read comics, and happily slack off, becoming a hands-off manager.
