Little Knowledge scratched his head.

In her eyes, Yaqing was a very gentle person who never blamed her, no matter what trouble she caused.

"Kiana, why are you so afraid of Yaqing?"

Kiana's eyes widened.

"Of course I'm not afraid of Xiao Huo. My uncle definitely won't blame me. Today I ate all of his treasured snacks. How could I not be afraid?"

Kiana added another sentence.

"Don't say I'm scared. Take my eldest sister, Durandal, for example, you know? If she really causes trouble and Uncle finds out, even she'll be afraid."

Kiana was still shaken.

Mother is dearest, uncle is the greatest.

Their father couldn't bear to hit them, and their mother couldn't bring herself to do it. During their rebellious phase, it was only thanks to their uncle's harsh discipline that the three sisters were able to experience a complete childhood.

Little Knowledge also squatted down, hiding under the desk, and curiously chatted with Kiana about their childhood, since she had never seen Yaqing make a move.

While Kiana was vividly describing the scene to Little Knowledge, Immer had already returned to the Aponia Sanatorium.

"Huh? Immer's off work so early today?"

Pardo, who was comforting the child, looked surprised and puzzled when she saw Immer return. Usually, Immer would not get off work until five or six o'clock, so why was she back before two o'clock today?

"Um!"

Pardo assumed the worst, but seeing the barely suppressed joy on Immer's face, she felt her own thoughts were a bit far-fetched.

How could anyone be happy after being fired?

Immer was in a hurry to return to the third floor of the sanatorium.

Even though joining the Far East Branch of Schicksal would provide dormitory accommodation, Immer still chose to live in the sanatorium because the sanatorium needed someone to look after the children at night.

Sometimes it's him, Nata, Kalpas, and sometimes it's him, Nata, Aponia, Pardo. They generally don't choose to spend the night in sanatoriums.

First, Kalpas Ke Aponia was worried; second, she was afraid that Pardo's personality would be bullied by those naughty kids; and third, Pardo herself was afraid of the dark and had trouble sleeping in certain beds.

Immer bumped into Kalpas without warning, falling on his backside. Kalpas's tight muscles made him feel as if he had hit a wall.

"Immer, you look so flustered, like a new recruit. Stand up."

Kalpas snorted coldly.

Immer quickly got up from the ground and ran back to his room.

"Sorry, Brother Jie, I have something urgent to attend to right now."

He remains unsolved for Kalpas, but asking him about it would be inconsistent with his character.

Immer returned to his room, closed the door, and eagerly turned on his computer. He rubbed his hands together like a fly, and began revising the ending. It took him about two hours to finish.

He didn't know why Yaqing added a female character at the end, nor did he know why the Doctor was a female character.

But there was one thing Immer knew: he had never seen this female character before, otherwise her height would have left a deep impression on him. Yet, she seemed somewhat familiar.

Immer was completely baffled.

When the film was revised to perfectly match Yaqing's vision, Immer was thrilled to see Yaqing's reply.

This can be considered as the fan receiving recognition from their idol.

My heart was pounding with excitement.

Just as Immer was about to publish it, his raised finger, about to land on the mouse, stopped.

Immer felt it wasn't serious enough, so she took another shower and posted the announcement without even drying her hair.

Since it's not published in the company's name, it's impossible for it to immediately dominate the homepage recommendations and be like a treasure waiting to be discovered.

To grab attention, Immer used a photo of Theresa as the cover, making a lasting impression.

Because his eyes were too wise.

"Pfft."

Gazing at the perfect composition, Immer couldn't help but laugh, as if he could see the scene behind him and the comments from his fans.

It was definitely not because he was amused by Theresa's gaze.

"Pfft."

As a secretary, Vita's main job was to pour tea and run errands for the headmaster, but she did the opposite, spending her days teasing Theresa.

Just like today, Theresa is diligently working on the documents.

Vita sat on the sofa, browsing the fan creation section of the official website.

Even Vita couldn't help but be moved when she saw this incredibly intelligent cover.

Upon hearing Vita's laughter, Theresa's eyes widened in shock.

She had originally planned to find someone to help her with her work, letting her secretary review documents so she could go read comics. Little did she expect to be tricked by Yaqing. This was hardly the naive and ignorant college graduate she expected; she had clearly found herself a father figure.

Theresa looked at Vita, who was sipping red tea and watching videos, with envy in her eyes.

Theresa realized that she had been completely controlled by [Tucker] her whole life.

Rita, Vita, Boundless Tower.

"Vita!"

Theresa shouted in dissatisfaction.

I know you're happy, but don't be happy yet. Do you know that there's someone else struggling to grade documents right now?

Theresa really wanted to complain.

Why is it that Otto and Yaqing can delegate documents to Amber and Rita, while she can't? They're both secretaries, so why is it that Otto and Yaqing can hand over documents to Amber and Rita, while she can't?

I'm shivering and freezing!

This is bullying honest people.

Theresa couldn't take it anymore; she was about to explode.

"Vita, go and make me a cup of bitter melon juice right now!"

Theresa's words were incredibly harsh.

"Yes, Headmaster."

Vita winked and left the office.

Theresa felt like she had punched cotton, and she was so angry that she trembled all over.

However, Theresa was wrong about one thing: Otto did hand over most of the documents to Amber, but he always reviewed the important ones himself.

Yaqing, on the other hand, gave most of the documents to Rita, but the important documents were... given to Salome.

"I want to see what Vita was laughing about!"

Theresa pulled out her phone from under her nun's dress and started browsing the Collapse Official Website for fan-made content.

That's what she said, but in reality, Theresa just wanted to slack off, and she did it in a perfectly legitimate way.

"It's nothing."

Theresa has been skating all along, and the fan art section on the official website is still the same as always, either dancing or skirting the edge, without any originality.

Until Theresa swiped to a picture.

His fingers stopped moving, and his expression froze.

"?"

She really didn't want to admit that the person with the intelligent look in his eyes was herself, but judging from the characteristics of his clothing, it was very likely that it was her.

"I...?!"

Theresa stood up abruptly from her chair, staring at her phone screen in disbelief.

She also knew why Vita hadn't been able to hold back her laughter earlier.

"Not good!"

Theresa instantly understood why Vita had left so decisively; it wasn't to make him bitter melon juice at all, but rather...

Theresa rushed out of the office, and sure enough, Vita and Himeko were chatting, their eyes filled with barely suppressed laughter as they looked at Theresa.

"Ah!!!"

Theresa's scream, breaking her composure, once again pierced the quiet St. Freya Academy.

At this moment, Yaqing was in a very pleasant mood, could not imagine the consequences, nor did he know that he would not dare to return to the courtyard today. He only cared about the momentary pleasure.

"I could almost hear Theresa breaking down."

Yaqing closed her eyes, as if savoring the moment.

Salome tilted her head. She hadn't heard anything. There were only her and Yaqing in the huge office. Could it be that there was something wrong with her ears?

Chapter 451 After Otto abdicates, the world is about to be destroyed.

Theresa, holding Himeko and Vita, looked like a family of three.

Theresa, I still have class.

Himeko said helplessly.

Theresa's eyes were like those of someone guarding against a thief, as if she was afraid Himeko would gossip about it.

"No! I'll find someone to cover your class today. You're not allowed to leave the office today!"

Theresa puffed out her little mouth.

Himeko touched her forehead, speechless and choked with emotion.

Vita watched the scene with an amused expression.

"I absolutely have to see what this fan fiction actually says!!"

Theresa jumped onto the chair, her delicate legs, encased in white stockings, swaying in the air as she stared fiercely at the cover of the fanfiction, at the Dumb Theresa with her "wise" eyes.

The story begins in a fallen city, ravaged by war, resembling ruins, devoid of any life, with only burning flames and billowing smoke.

"In a certain year of the Honkai, the former Bishop of Schicksal Otto of Schicksal announced his abdication, and since then, the world has been plunged into a devastating catastrophe."

A crow, a symbol of death, perched on the ruins, its dark blue pupils fixed on a certain spot, suddenly turning blood red.

How can people fleeing everywhere save this world from the brink of collapse?

A bolt from the blue.

This was a complete shock to Theresa.

In the main storyline, who else could be the successor chosen by Otto after his abdication besides her? It couldn't possibly be Durandal, could it?

In other words, the world was plunged into a devastating catastrophe as soon as she came to power.

"Theresa, this is just a derivative work."

Himeko noticed Theresa's low spirits and said something.

"Yes!"

Theresa's eyes lit up.

This is just fan-made content, not official storyline.

Not to mention that the so-called plot is all fictional and does not represent reality at all.

So, what is she feeling down about?

Unlike the headmaster's office, in the dormitory area of the St. Freya Academy, Sirin once again openly skipped class and started live streaming from her dormitory.

The number of viewers in the Queen of Void's live stream surged at one point.

Since the release of the Honkai series, Sirin's popularity has skyrocketed, especially after her departure from the last movie. In addition, she is currently busy with her projects and hasn't done any live streams for a long time.
