Bianca Lacked Confidence / With Mei Here, It's Like Having the Strength of a Hundred People

But that's not enough...

The Honkai's advance has not stopped, and our enemies are far more than just the Honkai.

To protect this life I love, I must become stronger.

"In that case, let's work together."

Seeing that Gwen seemed somewhat pessimistic, You Lan Dai Er didn't let Gwen continue speaking, but instead raised his head and stretched out his hand.

"Yes, let's be together, forever..."

Chapter 447 Bianca's Lack of Confidence

"Um..."

Although You Lan Dai Er was the one who made the first move, listening to Gwen's words, You Lan Dai Er had a Gwen feeling that Gwyn seemed to have ulterior motives, and...

"Why do Gwen's hands feel so hot..."

You Lan Dai Er, sensing something amiss with her keen intuition, felt slightly uneasy, muttered to herself, and began trying to change the subject—

"Speaking of which, when I saw that scene just now, I thought Gwen was going to do something to Kiana..."

The female protagonist, wearing only a towel after taking a shower, faints or something like that; it seems to be a classic trope...

But as she talked, You Lan Dai Er felt an urge to cover her face—what a lame excuse...

"Ha...

So, does that mean I'm the villain who plots against the female lead, Bianca, you're the protagonist who descends from the heavens to save her?

Hearing this, Gwen smiled, holding You Lan Dai Er's hand without letting go, instead pulling her closer to him—

"However, even I, the villain, think that your type Bianca, is quite to my liking—"

Maybe the plot involves the female knight's demise?

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, You Lan Dai Er, completely unable to comprehend it, tilted his head—

"Even if the female knight defeats the villain in the end, shouldn't she be saying 'goo'?"

"Forehead..."

Faced with You Lan Dai Er's pure gaze, Gwen was at a loss for words.

Fortunately, the mature You Lan Dai Er would come to his rescue.

"Besides, Gwen, you're not exactly a villain, are you—"

A hearty smile spread across You Lan Dai Er's handsome face.

"You're perfectly suited for this role; you should be the main character."

"If life is like a play, then everyone is the protagonist of their own story."

Gwen smiled, then his expression turned serious—

"Then... Bianca, would you like to be the heroine in my story?"

"This..."

Even with You Lan Dai Er's slowness of perception, he wouldn't be unable to understand the problem in Gwen's words.

But precisely because of this, You Lan Dai Er felt he couldn't answer—

Somewhat awkwardly, You Lan Dai Er scratched his head, his gaze drifting slightly—

"As for the female lead..."

I don't think I'm a good fit, do I?

After all, I don't possess the qualities that movie heroines need, such as gentleness, virtue, and intelligence.

Don't even mention taking care of you; I need you and Rita to take care of me too.

If we're really talking about the female lead, Rita or Anna would be more suitable...

Rita is a domestic goddess, gentle and virtuous, understanding and very good at taking care of people.

Anna is also a very gentle person...

As she spoke, a strange emotion unconsciously welled up within You Lan Dai Er, causing her voice to grow softer and softer...

"But Bianca is excellent too."

Hearing the sound grow fainter, Gwen chuckled softly and shook his left hand, which he held in his palm.

"With an outgoing personality, a responsible attitude, a regular lifestyle, and strict self-discipline, why can't she be the leading lady?"

"Can..."

Upon hearing You Lan Dai Er's heart vanished instantly, but she still hesitated somewhat.

"Sweetie, have some confidence in yourself. Our Bianca is the best."

Seeing You Lan Dai Er looking so unconfident, Gwen chuckled and offered words of encouragement.

"Um..."

Bright sunlight streamed into the room from the window, making her golden hair shine even brighter.

After that day, Kiana's mood improved, and she stopped self-destructively harming her body, returning to her previous regular life.

However, compared to before, Kiana is now much more diligent. Her bad habits of slacking off in class and being lazy during breaks have been completely swept away, as if she were a different person.

However, Kiana started too late, and with the Herrscher consciousness within her body causing problems, her progress was much slower than Anna's and the others.

"Kiana, I still hope that you can at least complete the basic Valkyrie training course at Schicksal, make up for your fundamentals, and then go there for further training—"

The people there aren't very friendly towards Herrscher...

If you go now, you'll probably suffer a lot more.

Seeing Kiana running up to him with a somewhat sullen expression, Gwen breathed a sigh of relief and tried to persuade her.

After the Herrscher girls in the team had all mastered the basics of their respective powers, Gwen prepared to take them to the Elysian Realm.

That's the place where they can master their own power at the fastest speed.

Moreover, a trip to the Elysian Realm can lessen their unease about their Herrscher.

However, because Kiana's foundation was so poor, Gwen planned to keep her in Schicksal for a while longer before sending her to the Elysian Realm.

However, Kiana herself opposed this.

"I'm not afraid of hardship. I've already completed the basic training and studies, so I can continue to train there."

Kiana stood ramrod straight, her voice slowly revealing a resolute tone—

"Moreover, my identity has already determined that I will have to face countless criticisms and strange looks."

Even if I get there and everyone hates me, I'll just prepare in advance.

Moreover, Anna and Mei are with them this time.

"Kiana, this is what Gwen has arranged..."

Upon hearing this Gwen, who was talking to Mei, prepared to help Gwen persuade Kiana.

Although Kiana seems to have recovered during this period, everyone around her can see that Kiana seems to have a strange sense of urgency, as if someone is chasing her from behind. It makes people worry that Kiana's nerves will be stretched too tight until one day they snap.

However, before Mei could finish speaking, Gwen interrupted Mei—

"Alright, if you insist, then get ready and let's go together in three days."

Meeting Kiana's defiant gaze, Gwen sighed softly and unceremoniously ruffled Kiana's neatly styled bangs.

"Don't come back crying when you get hurt."

"I'm not a child anymore, why would I cry!"

Kiana slapped Gwen's hand away and muttered something, but she still smiled because Gwen had agreed to her request. Then, without giving Gwen a chance to nag, she ran off and disappeared in a flash.

"Kiana really is..."

Looking at Kiana's retreating figure, Mei couldn't help but sigh.

"Mei, stop bringing up Kiana. Aren't you the same?"

Hearing Mei's remark, Gwen chuckled and flicked his finger across the girl's pert nose.

"You're a second-generation member just like Kiana, but you insisted on going with Anna and the others."

"I want to stand shoulder to shoulder with you as soon as possible; I can't just follow the usual path."

Hearing Gwen's somewhat teasing words, Raiden Mei chuckled and looked directly at Gwen in response.

Chapter 448: With Mei around, it's like having the strength of a hundred people.

"Your other option is not exactly a step-by-step solution either."

Meeting the girl's stubborn gaze, Gwen sighed softly, then pulled her slender yet supple waist and sat her down on the sofa.

"If you can develop your innate Stigmata well, your strength will also experience a leap forward, and reaching the current S-rank strength will be a piece of cake."

Moreover, your Stigmata are different from others, as they are connected to the Conquest Gem implanted in your body.

As I mentioned before, Mei, you might be able to use the Stigmata to completely convert the power belonging to the Herrscher of Honkai within the Conquest Gem into your own.

"But that's too slow..."

Feeling the warmth emanating from the large hand around her waist through her thin clothes, Mei's pretty face flushed slightly, but she still insisted on her opinion—

"There have been instances before where three Herrscher appeared in a single day."

If I can't gain enough power quickly, am I supposed to just watch you face multiple Herrscher alone?

Although the day was generally peaceful, the successive Cold Wave and fires left a deep impression on Mei, and also stirred a sense of worry in the girl's uneasy heart.

If Gwyn were to face two or even three enemies who had taken over his body, like the Second Herrscher in the Second Honkai War, would Gwen still be able to handle them with ease? Would he encounter any danger?

Will this lead to...?

Faced with a terrifying possibility she didn't want to confront, Mei felt a strong sense of urgency. The strong-willed girl longed even more to master powerful abilities so that she could help Gwen in the future.

"I believe that if that day ever comes, Mei will already be able to help me..."

Meeting Mei's resolute gaze, Gwen could say nothing more, only pulling the girl closer to him—

He couldn't stop the girl from trying to help him.

"Moreover, Mei can help me in ways that go beyond just fighting the Honkai head-on—"

Beyond the front lines, Mei is still my pillar of support.

Gwyn rested his head on the girl's fragrant shoulder, inhaling the faint scent of herbs emanating from her soft hair, Gwen crept onto his lips.

"With Mei around, it's like having the strength of a hundred people..."

"Hmm..."

Feeling the warm breath exhaled by Gwen as he spoke, Mei felt a tremor in her heart. Her well-trained body seemed to have all its strength drained away at that moment, and she leaned weakly against Gwen's chest, her pretty face flushed as she mumbled something, but she did not resist Gwen's intimacy in the slightest.

"That's a cunning remark..."

"If I weren't cunning, this little heart thief wouldn't be able to steal Mei's heart..."

Gwen chuckled and tilted his head slightly to give that delicate, pretty face a gentle kiss.

"Who... whose heart was stolen by you..."

At this moment, the girl no longer displayed the domineering and powerful aura of the Electro Queen Senba Academy. Her words were tinged with a seductive charm, and she suddenly squeezed her legs together—

A mischievous hand had already slipped down, caressing the black silk fabric that gleamed in the sunlight.

"Not here, someone will see us..."

"Subconsciously, the girl, who had never experienced anything like this before, said nervously, her beautiful eyes fixed on the direction of the door, as if afraid that someone would push the door open and enter at any moment."
