You and Raiden Mei...

Kiana opened her eyes in surprise, wanting to see what was going on, but this time, what she saw was not the mysterious crystal, but...

"What's wrong?"

Ruan Mei tilted her head slightly, looking at Kiana with a puzzled expression, who was filled with surprise and disbelief.

It's Ruan Mei.

Ruan Mei had returned sometime earlier and was now sitting beside her.

"I, I..."

Kiana was still not calm. She propped herself up and looked around. She was still in Ruan Mei's laboratory.

There is nothing unusual here.

That darkness... that crystal...

Is that actually the system itself?

A new mystery shrouded her heart.

What did you see?

Sensing something amiss from her reaction, Ruan Mei looked at her thoughtfully; she had been back for a while.

Seeing that Kiana was asleep, he instinctively sat down next to her, but didn't see anything noteworthy happen.

"It feels like I had a dream."

Kiana tried to recall something but couldn't remember anything. All she remembered was darkness and a light within that darkness.

"I dreamt that I was standing in a very dark place, and there was a golden crystal there. When I grabbed it, it suddenly lit up, and then I woke up."

She rubbed her temples and told Ruan Mei what had just happened without hiding anything. She didn't know whether it was something that actually happened or a dream.

Do I dream?

Of course they dream.

But this was the first time I'd ever had such a strange dream.

"It doesn't sound like a dream."

Ruan Mei frowned slightly. This didn't sound like a simple dream; it sounded more like a premonition.

She took Kiana's hand and said, "Think back to the dream you just had."

Kiana nodded and recalled her strange dream from beginning to end.

It's just a detail about the crystal.

She couldn't remember at all.

After reading it, Ruan Mei fell silent. She had never seen the kind of thing that Kiana had dreamed of.

Do you have any other feelings?

Ruan Mei didn't think this was normal.

Chapter 148 You and Raiden Mei...

A strange feeling?

Oh, right!

Kiana, thinking about the system whose presence was becoming increasingly insignificant, quickly opened her panel and took a look.

That one glance was enough to spot something was wrong.

She gained an extra skill.

A 'Teleport' skill!

This skill appeared so suddenly that she wasn't prepared at all; she was still developing the 'Teleport' skill.

Why?

She stared in astonishment, her eyes widening.

"What did you find?"

Ruan Mei looked at her with concern.

"Teleport... complete?"

Kiana's voice was very soft, because she herself felt a sense of disbelief and deep doubt.

What's this?

She carefully read through the Teleport description and deliberately tried to sense the extra ability.

Absolutely true.

She had absolutely no idea how it worked.

But this skill is actually usable!

Using those whose fates are intertwined with hers as anchor points, she can Teleport to those individuals at any time through this anchoring.

"Is it finished?"

Ruan Mei's eyes also showed some surprise. According to their progress, it would take Kiana several months to complete the skill she wanted to develop.

Now it's unbelievable...

It was completed overnight?

What is the reason?

Kiana's strange dream?

Ruan Mei stood up and pulled her up as well, saying, "Let's go, I'll take you for a physical exam."

If you can't figure it out, then get tested, although there's a high chance they still won't find anything.

But it's always good to check.

Kiana also wanted to know what had happened, so she obediently followed behind Ruan Mei and went for a check-up with her.

The medical examination report showed no abnormalities.

It's the same as the report from a few days ago.

After reading the report, Ruan Mei closed her eyes and pondered for a moment, wondering whether she should put aside her research on Propagation and instead focus on exploring the mysteries surrounding Kiana.

"ARuan?"

"I'm fine."

Ruan Mei gently shook her head, turned off the projection in front of her, and turned to look at Kiana, whose eyes were filled with worry. She affectionately reached out to tidy up Kiana's stray hairs.

"It's a good thing overall."

Kiana quickly came to terms with it. She didn't know much about the system to begin with, so one more mystery wasn't a big deal.

Her primary goal right now is to become the Herrscher of Finality. Only after becoming a true Herrscher of Finality will she know what to do next.

"Yes."

Ruan Mei gently stroked her face, and her heart stirred as she looked into her jewel-like blue eyes.

Kiana will always be hers.

She will always be by her side, giving her plenty of time to study the Honkai and explore the mysteries surrounding Kiana.

She has no shortage of time.

"Now that this ability has been developed, you'll be leaving in a couple of days, right?"

She said.

Kiana nodded. "This Teleport ability allows you to use a person as an anchor point and Teleport to that person at any time."

"I plan to go to Jarilo -VI to see Jana, comfort her, and then go back to the Xianzhou to find Mei."

Once she binds both Jana and Yomi, she won't need to waste time on interstellar travel anymore, and she can appear by their side whenever they need her.

"That's indeed a good ability."

In this way, it doesn't matter how far or remote Kiana goes; if I have to leave, I don't need to specifically consider Kiana.

When Kiana is needed.

She can have Kiana come directly to her.

Very convenient.

Withdrawing her hand from her face, Ruan Mei said, "I also need to leave the space station for a while."

"Huh?"

Kiana looked surprised and followed behind Ruan Mei, asking, "Why are you leaving all of a sudden? What are you going to do? Do you need my help?"

"No need."

Ruan Mei did not tell Kiana what she was going to do, nor did she intend to have Kiana follow her around forever.

She didn't mind.

But Kiana, who has just gained the ability to Teleport, would probably rather go to Yomi and set her up as an anchor point.

"Well... okay."

Kiana was a little disappointed when she heard Ruan Mei say there was no need, but she could also understand that Ruan Mei had said that out of consideration for her.

It wasn't because Ruan Mei needed to hide what she was going to do from him.

... It shouldn't be.

She believes in ARuan!

As Kiana was thinking, she suddenly hugged Ruan Mei beside her and said in a coquettish tone, "ARuan is so good."

Unperturbed by the interruption of her unimportant thoughts, Ruan Mei wasn't annoyed. She simply asked to confirm, "Do you want to go and rest?"

"ARuan should go and rest."

Kiana hugged her tightly, nuzzling her face against her shoulder. "You haven't had a proper rest for many days. The experiments can't be finished. It's not too late to do them later after resting for a while."

Shall we go take a rest?

Ruan Mei, however, was able to persevere.

She just hasn't had a proper rest in a long time, and now she has Kiana by her side.

Thinking back to last time.

Ruan Mei listened to her suggestion. "Okay, I'll go with you to rest for a while."

"I knew ARuan wouldn't refuse!"

Kiana excitedly pulled her to the rest area.

She's been here so long, and she hasn't even had a proper chance to get to know Ruan Mei yet. She's been busy finding a feasible way to develop their skills.

Unexpectedly, the process had only just begun.

I knew it was over.

Want to kiss?

Kiana, who was pulling Ruan Mei along and wanted to find a different place, preferably one where she could hold Ruan Mei and get a good night's sleep, was slightly taken aback.

Kiss?

"Yes, do you want to kiss me?"

Ruan Mei looked at her face and asked.

For her, it was a way to relax, and it's normal for lovers to do this kind of thing.

Kiana was right.

They hadn't been close for a while, and she didn't mind taking this opportunity to relax.
