Chapter 162

It acts like a catalyst.

This forced Elysia and several other girls to leave their comfort zones.

Be more proactive.

But isn't this also a kind of stimulation for Kiana herself?

The warmth of Elysia still lingered on her lips.

Kiana could sense it.

She's already taken such a proactive step, so why should I hesitate?

"I don't want to be perfunctory with you, nor with every girl I like, or who likes me..."

Kiana looked at Jana earnestly.

Right here, at the edge of the solar system, in the cosmos.

"To put it another way, whether I like her or not is secondary. If a girl likes me, confesses to me, and is also quite attractive, I won't refuse her!"

"Even if you can accept that I have so many wives and often have affairs, as long as you're willing to stay by my side, I won't mind..."

"This is me, Kiana!"

"..."

She didn't actually mean to keep the girls in suspense.

Everyone seemed to be in tacit agreement, maintaining a delicate balance.

She was indeed happy to be able to relax.

Delay it if you can.

But what if the situation changes?

She could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb.

"I like every single one of you girls, there are many now, and there will be many more in the future."

"I hope you can all stay by my side... because I'm incredibly greedy."

"..."

"..." Jana fell silent for a moment.

She stared blankly at Kiana, her mind a jumbled mess.

It was unusually quiet.

Yes!

Kiana didn't want to become a herbivorous, centrally-loving person like the harem protagonists in the Japanese manga and light novels she had read.

She wouldn't let the girls who liked her fight over her, creating a chaotic scene, while she pretended to be miserable and had a headache, only to benefit from their adoration.

To be honest!

She might be a carnivorous creature.

She takes relationships very seriously, but when it's time to eat, she'll never pretend to be reserved; she might even be more proactive than you.

All of these are possible!

Kiana would never deceive a girl's feelings.

She was very clear about this and understood that she wouldn't give up an entire forest for the sake of one tree.

Jana's overly aggressive actions just now served as a constant reminder to Kiana.

Not all girls can accept her philandering, and naturally not all girls will be willing to compromise themselves and stay by her side, as she wishes.

They are human beings, real beings with flesh and blood.

Not characters from games, anime, or manga/light novels...

They!

They also have their own joys and sorrows.

That's why.

Kiana was even more unwilling to hide it from them.

Instead, I honestly confessed, telling them, "This is me, this is who I am."

If you're willing to accept it, then we'll come together.

If you don't want to accept it, that's okay too. We can still be friends!

There is no situation where a failed confession means you can't even remain friends.

There's no need for that; there's no psychological burden involved.

"I..." Jana was still being held by Kiana's shoulders. She didn't struggle and was so docile that she even looked a little weak. She gently bit her lower lip.

"If I say!"

"I want you... just me. Is that okay?"

"..."

She looked up pitifully.

"I will try my best to become the kind of person Kiana likes."

"I will not lose to them."

"Anything they can do, I can do too. Anything they can give you, I can do as well."

"I will learn."

"..."

"I am Honkai Beast, your Companion Honkai Beast."

"Whatever kind of me you like, it's fine! I can change."

PS1: Fourth update delivered! More tomorrow, keep it up!

159. Jana: I want to come too!

"So!"

Jana's voice was somewhat shrill.

But then, realizing that this might not be appropriate, she softened, stammering and looking earnestly at Kiana, "Just look at me... okay?"

It's obvious.

Miss Jana wanted to struggle a little longer.

But the more she acted this way, the less swayed Kiana became.

Even if she hadn't rejected him without a word, she wouldn't have changed her mind.

Right now.

It's obvious you can hear it...

She was actually starting to back down.

Some concessions have already been made.

Because this is Kiana's will.

She just wanted to try again.

But that doesn't mean it's unacceptable!

Just consider me despicable!

Jana.

Kiana sighed.

She said resolutely and earnestly, "If you insist on doing this, then I will have no choice but to give you up."

"Because Elysia and the others wouldn't mind these things... If they don't mind, I'll be happier. Maybe right now, the only one who really minds is you..."

"I can't abandon them for you."

"..."

She spoke half-truthfully.

"After all, even though you are my Companion Honkai Beast, we are meant to be together."

"But the Origin, that is, Elysia ... and Eden, Mobius, Vilvi, Aponia ... even Cang Xuan, Danzhu, each and every one of them is already by my side..."

"..."

"They were connected to me before you were."

"You're the one who came later!"

"..."

Jana didn't understand the order of arrival.

She didn't want to understand either.

But she could sense what Kiana was thinking.

Yes.

Since she was willing to change anything, alter anything, and learn anything for Kiana.

If it really was Kiana who asked her... she would agree.

Just as expected!

I still feel a little resentful.

What's causing your frustration?

It seemed impossible to make sense of it all at once.

Jana pursed her lips and clenched her little fists, seemingly angry, but quickly let go of them.

A sullen reply.

"I see..."

After saying that.

She pouted her little lips cutely again.

I'm so angry!

So annoying!

Okay, okay, don't be angry~

Kiana breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face.

She released Jana, then reached up with her right hand and gently stroked Jana's face. Seeing Jana tilting her face slightly, as if she wanted to touch her cheek more, she couldn't help but smile.

"I don't consider myself the kind of girl who gets bored easily... so whether it's you or them, I'll like them all~"

"We still have a lot of time ahead of us, and the road ahead is long."

"..."

"We have plenty of time to spend with each other."

So... cheer up, okay?

"..."

"Mmm..." Jana raised her little hand and gently cupped Kiana's hand that was stroking her left cheek, as if she could truly feel Kiana's warmth, as obedient as a little kitten.

"I'm no worse than them!"

If it's Kiana's wish, she will grant it.

If it were Kiana, wanting so many wives, she might hate it, but she wouldn't say much.
