Star Rail, Starting as Kiana

She worried that after the other person left, they would find a new lover and then abandon her.

"What, little one, are you saying you want me to warm your bed? Do you have feelings for me?"

It was Kafka again.

Meanwhile, seeing Kiana suddenly freeze and look at her blankly, Kafka thought Kiana hadn't heard her clearly and repeated herself.

Seeing Kiana still didn't react.

The smile on Kafka's lips widened.

She slowly stood up and approached Kiana, just like that time in Belobog.

Kafka's fingers gently pinched Kiana's chin, as if admiring a delicate piece of porcelain, her movements both gentle and undeniably firm.

Seeing Kafka's actions, Kiana suddenly thought of her companions on the Express, Stelle.

"I'm sorry, Stelle, next time we meet, we'll go our separate ways. You'll call me Dad, and I'll call you Stelle."

"Forget it, I won't mess around anymore. Let's put aside the matter of Silver Wolf for now. Don't guess, what do you think I brought you here for?"

"To be a bandit's wife?"

Kiana blurted out reflexively.

But speaking of which, if outsiders saw the two of them now.

Seeing Kafka's knee pressed against the chair between Kiana's legs, while her fingers still provocatively held Kiana's chin, they might genuinely think some villain was trying to provoke a respectable woman.

Silver Wolf, who was on the side and had just finished a game, heard their conversation and burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, bandit's wife, hahaha."

"Kafka, so this was your goal?"

"Kiana, this way, my promise is considered fulfilled."

"Remember to call me when the feast begins, I'll bring others."

But Silver Wolf's voice gradually grew softer and then disappeared.

The reason was simple: Kafka still maintained her smile, but her entire demeanor had turned somewhat grim.

Realizing she might have been a bit too boisterous.

Silver Wolf quickly whistled and popped two pieces of bubble gum into her mouth, then picked up her phone to play games again.

I'm screwed, did I catch something weird? This doesn't fit my character.

Silver Wolf thought to herself.

For some reason, every time she interacted with Kiana, she felt her emotions were a bit out of control.

If this continued, her image as a cosmic hacker would soon turn into that of a silly girl.

After all, among these acquaintances, if you didn't consider their abilities, just their physical fitness, she couldn't beat any of them!

"Actually, bringing you here is partly to leak some clues so that the Luofu can find me, and partly to stir up the Express crew's motivation, as not all personnel have appeared yet. This game cannot officially begin."

Kafka patiently explained their general plan to Kiana, without hiding anything.

For example, deliberately leaving some clues in the room.

And making the Express crew worry, then cutting off communication.

And then having four of the Cloud-Piercer Five find a way to meet.

"Um, your plan is good, but Jing Yuan is in trouble. Would Blade attack a little girl who looks only a teenager?"

Kafka:?

"Um, Jing Yuan is no longer here. The current General is Jing Yuan Yuan."

Seeing Kafka still looking confused, Kiana directly took out her phone and showed her a photo of Jing Yuan Yuan she had secretly taken at the Divination Department.

Looking at the photo on Kiana's phone.

Kafka couldn't connect the person in the photo with the Luofu General at all.

"Wait, can Blade still recognize Jing Yuan?"

"It's Jing Yuan Yuan."

Kafka gave Kiana, who interjected, an exasperated look and quickly tried to use her communication device to contact Blade, telling him that the current Jing Yuan's appearance had changed.

But as she picked up her phone, she remembered that Blade was currently imprisoned and had no access to communication devices. Silver Wolf had Blade's phone.

She couldn't exactly break him out of prison just to tell him this news and then leave him there.

In the end, Kafka decided not to change her plan. As for whether Blade would be unable to resist interfering with the plan because Jing Yuan had become Jing Yuan Yuan?

She could only hope that Blade would recognize him now.

Even if he didn't recognize him, it didn't matter. This Luofu General wasn't that important anyway. As long as that Dragon Lord appeared, it would be enough.

But Kafka couldn't help but ask.

"By the way, when will she be able to change back?"

"I don't know."

"Before that? I remember the records on Herta Space Station. It seems your ability has been triggered a few times. How long were those times?"

"The shortest was a few minutes, the longest was a week..."

Hearing that the longest was only a week, Kafka breathed a sigh of relief. A week was more than enough time. By then, everyone would likely have arrived, and there would be plenty of time to spare.

But Kiana hadn't finished speaking.

"But it seems my ability has been upgraded? Because on Belobog, that Sampo seemed to not change back until I left. I don't know if it's my problem or his."

Chapter 64: Elio, was this also in your script?

While resting and waiting for the script to proceed smoothly, Elio suddenly received a message from Kafka.

"Eh? It's Kafka. Did something happen?"

Elio then opened his phone to check Kafka's message, and a large question mark appeared above his head.

Kafka: Elio, is General Jing Yuan of the Luofu becoming Jing Yuan Yuan also in your script?

Kafka: [Image].jpg

Looking at the photo Kafka sent, Elio was stunned for a long time.

After a full half-hour, Elio only managed to reply with a question mark.

Elio:?

After Kafka and Elio finished their communication, Elio discovered that the two, who were previously like fire and water, were now lying together, each holding a phone and playing with great enthusiasm.

"Did you get it? Play it quickly. I'm telling you, this game is super fun, and the story is super sweet."

"Got it, got it. Stop rushing me, but..."

After receiving the game transferred by Kiana and completing the installation, Silver Wolf was just about to open it.

However, upon seeing the game's logo, Silver Wolf wore a speechless expression and stared directly at Kiana, who was beside her.

Seeing Kiana already starting the game, Silver Wolf, as a hardcore gamer, knew she shouldn't disturb her at this moment.

But she couldn't resist the urge to complain.

"Kiana, are you that narcissistic? The game's logo is your own photo?"

Kiana's actions paused. She watched her character in the game get defeated with her own eyes, but her fingers hovered in the air, not moving.

Kiana finally understood why Herta's expression had been so strange back then.

However, Kiana could only pretend to be nonchalant and said, "It's nothing. It's just that re-creating a character took too much time. Besides, if I use myself as the logo, who would compete with me for the trademark and copyright?"

"That makes sense."

Silver Wolf didn't probe further and entered the game, starting to play.

She watched the heartwarming opening scenes, the intimate interactions between the trio. Although the Bronya in the game looked nine parts similar to herself, Silver Wolf just assumed it was Herta's idea.

When she frantically pushed the story forward and saw Bronya turn evil, controlled by a chip in her brain, Silver Wolf blurted out a curse.

"My f*cking Herta, my f*cking Cocolia!"

In the distant Belobog, and in Herta's laboratory.

Cocolia and Herta both sneezed simultaneously.

"Achoo!" *2

"Silver Wolf, Kiana, do you want to go out?"

"No, we want to play the game." *2

Looking at the two who were so in sync, Kafka was momentarily unable to understand their relationship. Were they good friends or not? They had just seemed like they were about to fight to the death, but now they were so harmonious.

"Never mind. I'll leave some more clues and buy some things. Do you need anything?"

Silver Wolf: "Buy some snacks."

This time, Kiana didn't synchronize with Silver Wolf, as her inventory was not lacking in snacks.

Thinking that playing games couldn't be done without snacks and happy water, Kiana rummaged through her inventory and pulled out many snacks and pastries she had bought before, along with a case of happy water.

However, among these snacks, something strange was mixed in.

Silver Wolf looked at Kiana's ability and felt a bit envious.

Although the Ether Editing ability was very useful, seeing that Kiana's inventory could hold so many things was amazing.

As a heavy gamer and the world's top hacker.

Silver Wolf also wished she had a portable warehouse, so she could just take out whatever she wanted to eat while gaming, and after eating, she wouldn't have to clean up, just throw it back in.

Silver Wolf looked at the white-haired girl beside her and suddenly had a bold idea: to recruit Kiana to their side.

"Hmm?"

"It's for the Stellaron Hunters. You don't have to perform any missions, you can just be a logistics person, or even just have your name on the roster."

"Uh, this..."

Kiana didn't know why Silver Wolf suddenly said that, but after a moment's thought, it seemed like there was no harm in it.

But as Kiana hesitated, Silver Wolf pulled out a strange object from the pile of snacks.

"Huh? What's this? Wait, a mask? Did Kiana join the Masked Fools? That faction of pranksters? Since when?"

"Since when?"

Kiana didn't understand why Silver Wolf suddenly brought this up.

Although Aha had invited her in the interstice of the Paths, she hadn't responded. Why would Silver Wolf say that?

Kiana's gaze fell on the object in Silver Wolf's hand and she realized it was the mask left by that mysterious girl in the lower district of Belobog.

The mask and a note had been left together at the time, but she had forgotten about it after putting it into her inventory.

"Wait, you're saying this is a Masked Fool's mask? Not just an ordinary mask?"

"Of course. Besides those guys who will do anything to find amusement and often turn everything upside down wherever they go, no one would leave so much energy in a mask."

Silver Wolf noticed that Kiana seemed genuinely unaware, otherwise, why would she show such a surprised expression?

"Wait, you really don't know? Although I haven't seen masks from other Masked Fools, the power on this one is definitely not ordinary. I'd believe you if you said you were an Emissary of Joy. Are you sure you don't know?"

"Yeah, if you hadn't said anything, I would have thought it was just an ordinary mask."

"It's probably another prank from that particular Aeon. But if it's them, this is quite normal. After all, they're the kind of prankster who made Noblesse Worm an Emissary and then tried to get a Noblesse Worm into the Genius Club."

But Kiana was no longer listening.

Kiana's mind was racing. Jing Yuan had turned into Jing Yuan Yuan, and even Lan wanted her to stay as an Emissary. The events in the interstice of the Paths were nothing but Aha's trickery.

She had unknowingly become a member of Joy, only to have it forcibly suppressed by Aha.

And the purpose was likely just to watch the fun, to see if other Aeons would try to poach her.

A large part of Kiana's guess was correct. Aha was watching the actions of the three Aeons and hadn't stopped laughing.
