Intelligence E

The story continued----

After resolving all the threats, Ye Li restored communications and contacted the anxious Himeko.

"Communications are back? Ye Li? Are you all right?"

"Major Himeko, I'm mostly fine, but Kiana and the others are injured and need treatment..."

"What! All right, rest where you are. Support will arrive immediately!"

While everyone was resting, the unconscious Bronya woke up.

Looking at the devastated main control room, Bronya's face was full of self-blame.

Though no one had said anything yet, she had immediately deduced what had happened with her exceptional intelligence.

Thinking of this, Bronya murmured, "It seems it's time for Major Himeko to give Bronya a thorough physical examination..."

"Bronya... doesn't want to hold everyone back... in any way..."

In the real world, after seeing Bronya blame herself so deeply, most online viewers softened their attitudes somewhat.

Although some were still angry over Bronya's sudden betrayal, most people could see that she had acted against her will.

After a while, a series of hurried footsteps sounded from nearby.

Everyone looked in the direction of the footsteps and saw that Murata Himeko had personally led a group of Valkyries to provide support.

Although she had prepared herself mentally, Himeko's expression still turned grim when she saw the miserable sight of everyone in the main control room covered in injuries.

What hurt her even more was that Ye Li, who had kept insisting that he was fine, was actually the most severely injured of them all.

At that thought, a surge of anger rose uncontrollably within Himeko, followed by endless heartache.

She truly wanted to grab Ye Li by the collar and ask him what he thought his own life was worth!

You saved me and everyone else, yet you bore all the pain alone, even at the cost of your life!

However, just as Himeko strode angrily up to Ye Li, ready to question him...

That man slyly flashed a brilliant smile and said to her in a relaxed tone, "Himeko, now that you're here, I can rest easy... I'll leave the rest to you..."

After saying that, Ye Li coolly left the main control room with the support of one of the Valkyries who had come to help, leaving Murata Himeko standing there in silence.

After a long while, Murata Himeko revealed a bitter smile and shook her head.

"I'll let you off this time! But next time..."

At that point, Murata Himeko's gentle expression abruptly became resolute.

"I'll protect you at any cost!"

Ye Li was a real man.

To keep Himeko from worrying, Ye Li did not even mention his injuries.

He really... I'm crying my eyes out.

Sob, sob, Prison Ye! My Prison Ye!

After returning to St. Freya Academy, the injured Kiana and Mei received careful treatment from the medical team.

As Bronya had said before, she was also sent for a thorough examination, but unexpectedly, no problems were found.

The academy therefore concluded that Bronya's abnormal behavior might have been caused by the Moonlight Throne's engine energy interfering with her biochip, so they performed repair procedures.

Meanwhile, after reporting everything, Ye Li hurried back to Schicksal Headquarters above the Mediterranean Sea.

At the same time, the annual Valkyrie Exam was drawing near.

The atmosphere at St. Freya Academy grew tense as well.

After confirming that they had recovered from their injuries, Kiana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya threw themselves into increasingly intense daily training.

The real world----

When viewers reached this point, they finally let out the breath they had been holding.

According to the narration, the following plot should be a transitional arc about how Kiana and the others would handle the exam.

That also meant the upcoming plot would most likely not keep handing out emotional gut punches like before.

When viewers saw Kiana trying to skip class only to be caught by Principal Theresa, they once again went completely unhinged.

Theresa, my new wife! How could I live without you!

First, let me make this clear: I'm not into little girls, but Theresa is just too adorable, so I did something wrong while looking at her. But I still want to stress that I'm really not into little girls.

You two geniuses upstairs, I've already called the police. Every last one of you is going inside!

Neighbor, open up! The community's here to bring you warmth~

But seriously, according to the setting, shouldn't Theresa actually be an old lady in her forties?

What's wrong with being forty? Do you think age can stop my love for Theresa?

Amid the unhinged scrolling comments, the video steadily advanced the plot.

When Class Monitor Fu Hua solemnly declared, "Kiana's attack: A, reaction: A, intelligence: E," the viewers could no longer hold it in.

Even Bronya herself, watching the video in the real world, could not help laughing out loud.

"As expected of Kiana the idiot. That really suits her style~"

After mocking Kiana as usual (2/1), Bronya's expression turned serious again.

"Even the class monitor appeared in this video? As far as Bronya knows, given the class monitor's personality, she would never agree to take part in something like this..."

Thinking of this, Bronya became even more interested in the video called Honkai Impact 3rd.

In the video, after practical combat training, Kiana hurried straight to the classroom to listen to Himeko's lecture.

With Himeko's clear voice and the sound of Kiana snoring away.

People gained a more detailed understanding of the disasters brought by Honkai, and learned of the concept of Herrschers for the first time.

When they heard Himeko say that a Herrscher's destructive power was comparable to a nuclear bomb, people in the real world instinctively sucked in a breath.

An uncontrolled nuclear bomb—just thinking about it was terrifying.

The scene shifted abruptly to the principal's office.

Inside, Theresa was speaking with a Valkyrie dressed in a black-and-white lace Maid Outfit.

The video thoughtfully displayed subtitles to introduce her to the viewers.

Rita Rossweisse, one of Schicksal's three active S-rank Valkyries, and vice-captain of Blades of the Unbroken, Schicksal's strongest Valkyrie squad.

Through their conversation, people also learned the purpose of Rita's call.

In summary, as Schicksal Organization's branch in the Far East, St. Freya Academy had sent the report on the Moonlight Throne back to Schicksal Headquarters through Ye Li.

After reading the report, Schicksal's bishop Otto ordered Rita to verify both the report and the battleship, while also having her attend this year's Valkyrie Exam as an observer.

At the end of the call, Rita even complimented Theresa for being as adorable as a doll, embarrassing Theresa terribly.

After teasing Theresa, Rita ended the call, leaving Theresa alone in a state of utter confusion.
