My Chat Group Is Really Too Strange Chapter 23

Not to mention, this guy had forcibly used Reinforcement Magic to resist gravity, on top of using the incredibly dangerous Killing Intent Fluctuation.

Yet he still hadn't passed out by the end and somehow managed to walk back.

If someone who knew what Mo Wang had done found out, they'd probably say, "Damn, how are you not dead yet?"

Still, even though he hadn't died there, Mo Wang had earned himself a week as a seriously ill patient.

For that entire week, he could only lie miserably in bed and couldn't go anywhere.

Thinking about how he wouldn't be able to go home and play Yugi for a week, and would have to endure the bland-as-hell food at St. Freya Hospital, Mo Wang fell into despair.

"Guess I should just sleep, brothers. Once I'm asleep, it won't hurt anymore." Mo Wang closed his eyes, no longer wanting to look at this hopeless world.

"Click~!"

However, the things people least wanted to happen always happened at the worst possible time.

Mo Wang had barely closed his eyes when he heard someone opening the door.

Kiana was sneaking in from outside on tiptoe.

"Kiana, who exactly are you hiding from? With your stealth skills, even Blind Monk could spot you."

Looking at that huge mass of white hair, Mo Wang really couldn't be bothered to mock her.

"What? You were awake after all." When Kiana saw Mo Wang looking at her, she immediately started complaining. "If you were awake, then don't close your eyes. You made me think you were asleep."

"Yeah, I was about to sleep, but some white-haired girl snuck in." Mo Wang immediately fired back at Kiana for having the nerve to accuse him first.

"W-Was it because of me? Sorry." Hearing that Mo Wang had been about to sleep but had been woken up by her, Kiana actually apologized first.

"What the hell?! You apologized first?"

Mo Wang stared at Kiana as if he had seen a ghost.

What was going on? That white-haired girl with the awful personality was actually taking the initiative to apologize?

Was this really K423? Or had Bishop thrown Amber over here?

"What?! What kind of look is that? Do you really think I'm someone who never apologizes?" Kiana strongly protested Mo Wang's complete lack of faith in her.

"Heh." In response to her protest, Mo Wang merely gave her a look and let her figure it out herself.

"Ahem, f-forget it. I'll let you off this time."

"Anyway, how are you feeling now? What exactly happened to you earlier?"

Kiana hurriedly changed the subject and asked Mo Wang about what had happened before.

"Nothing much. There were just some minor side effects after using Tenfold Kaioken."

"Tenfold Kaioken?" Kiana looked utterly strange as she listened to him.

"Yeah. Using that move directly caused severe muscle strain and brittle bones. Luckily, my little heart was tough enough that I didn't suddenly drop dead on the spot."

"You're still lying to me! Do you think I've never watched Dragon Ball?" Before Mo Wang could finish, Kiana smacked him on the arm, making him bare his teeth in pain again.

"Hey! Watch it, will you? I'm a patient right now! If you hurt me, I'll make you pay compensation!"

"Hmph! That's what you get for lying to me." Kiana turned her head away, making it clear that she had done nothing wrong and that it was all Mo Wang's fault for deceiving her.

"Tsk, you brat. I even saved you, you know. You don't know how to care about people at all." Seeing Kiana's attitude, Mo Wang started grumbling in her ear.

"Then tell me, what move did you actually use? I heard from the nurse that you were seriously injured."

Kiana turned back toward Mo Wang and looked at him solemnly. "You're not allowed to lie to me this time. If something really happened, you have to tell me the truth."

Mo Wang looked at Kiana in surprise. Honestly, this was the first time he had ever seen her with such a serious expression.

"So... you really want to know?" Mo Wang repeatedly confirmed.

"Mhm." Kiana nodded hard.

"Fine. The move I used is a legendary ultimate technique called the Heavenly Demon Dissolution Great Law. After using it, you can borrow the power of a Heavenly Demon to forcibly increase your strength."

"But unfortunately, every use causes enormous side effects to your body."

"And my body really couldn't withstand that powerful force, so I ended up like this."

Mo Wang spoke helplessly.

"Everything you said is true? You weren't lying to me?"

"Of course, of course. How could I dare lie to you?"

Mo Wang spoke to Kiana as though he were humoring a child.

But immediately afterward, Mo Wang felt drops of water falling onto his hand.

"What?"

Mo Wang's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Kiana before him.

Holy shit?! The white-haired dumpling was actually crying?

PS: It feels like I've been constantly drifting back and forth between falling asleep and waking up today. Was the New Year just too exhausting?

Chapter 34: Oh No! The Male Lead Was Forcefully Kissed by the White-Haired Girl

"Y-You're crying?"

When he saw Kiana's tears continuously streaming down her face, Mo Wang panicked.

Heaven knew, ever since he was little, the thing he feared most was girls crying.

"D-Don't cry! I'll tell you the truth. That Heavenly Demon Dissolution Great Law thing was fake. I made it all up to fool you. Can you stop crying first?"

But it would have been better if Mo Wang had said nothing. The moment he continued, Kiana cried even harder.

Mo Wang was at a loss.

Don't be fooled by how he normally spouted flirtatious nonsense nonstop.

In reality, his experience with girls was practically zero.

The versions of himself in other worlds were also mostly people without girlfriends.

They were either hardcore bros or hopelessly straight guys.

The only one with even a little experience dealing with girls was that guy from the chicken coop.

Every girl in there was someone he normally wouldn't even dare touch.

So now, faced with Kiana's tears, he truly had no idea what to say.

"You're still lying to me even now, aren't you?! Do you think it's fun to deceive me?!"

Kiana's tears directly soaked Mo Wang's blanket.

"I..." Mo Wang had just wanted to say something, but Kiana gave him no chance to speak.

"I heard it all earlier. Your entire body was fractured, and you had internal bleeding. They said that if your recovery ability hadn't been so strong, you would've died there!"

Kiana became more emotional the more she spoke.

"Th-That... didn't you say it yourself? It was only fractures and internal bleeding. That doesn't count as such a serious injury, does it?"

Mo Wang said dryly.

In fact, for people from other worlds, injuries like that would probably be enough to kill them ten times over.

But in the Honkai world, this really did count as a minor injury.

Not to mention that Mo Wang had all sorts of cheats activated. They said it would take a week, but in reality, he would probably be back on his feet in three days.

But Kiana didn't care about any of that right now.

"Why are all of you like this?! That bastard of a dad is the same! This time, he said one thing and then disappeared again! Do you know how many years I've spent looking for him?!"

"It's the same every time. He leaves behind one sentence, then vanishes. Would he die if I found him?!"

Kiana grew more and more agitated, even comparing Mo Wang to her own lousy father.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right. Sigfried really is a complete bastard."

Mo Wang's expression drifted.

If he remembered correctly, that legendary punching bag Sigfried should still be in Cocolia's custody right now, shouldn't he?

And wasn't he currently cellmates with Mei's father, Ryoma?

After thinking it over carefully, Mo Wang felt that Sigfried truly had it rough beyond words.

As the protagonist's background-character father, he didn't properly appear in the Yugi story until the end of the first part.

After being chased by Otto, he was captured by Cocolia. After Cocolia was done with him, it was World Serpent's turn.

By himself, he had offended all three major factions from the first part.

In the end, the writers had been merciful enough not to send him and Mei's father into the grave together.

Otherwise, all three heroines of Honkai Impact 3rd really would have been orphans.

Come to think of it, those two should be locked up in Canghai City right now, right? If I go save them now, I wonder if I'll still make it in time.

Mo Wang had already made up his mind.

Once his injuries healed, he would head to Canghai City and take a look.

Maybe he could even save Ryoma.

But plans were plans. For now, he first had to soothe Kiana.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, your deadbeat dad really went too far. Leaving home was one thing, but he didn't even leave you any living expenses."

"Look at you. You're the Little Princess of the Kaslana family, yet you have to work several jobs every day. What kind of father is that?" Mo Wang chimed in.

"And you have the nerve to say that!" Kiana glared at Mo Wang angrily.

"M-Me? What did I do?"

Mo Wang jolted, having no idea what he had said wrong again.

"You're usually so scared of dying, so why did you have to play the Hero this time?! What if... what if you died?!"

Kiana looked at Mo Wang with reddened eyes.

"Oh, that's what you mean."

Hearing Kiana's words, Mo Wang couldn't help letting out a breath.

"If I die, then I die. It's not really that scary."

"Besides, those kinds of losers aren't enough to kill me. To kill me, you'd at least need a Hero capable of killing a Demon King who can destroy a world."

"What do you mean, 'if I die, then I die'?! Do you know how worried I... we were about you?!" Kiana was furious.

"Hahaha! I didn't expect everyone to care about me that much."

"But doesn't that mean my efforts were worthwhile?"

Mo Wang shed his usual frivolous demeanor and smiled at Kiana.

"You..."

"You know, Kiana? A year ago, I didn't feel any sense of belonging in this world at all."

"Everything here felt familiar, yet strange."

"I thought this world had no hope. No matter how hard I tried, it would ultimately head toward that predetermined future."

"But everyone at St. Freya accepted someone like me, someone who didn't fit in at all."

"After coming to St. Freya and meeting everyone, I finally felt a sense of belonging in this world for the first time."

"I like this place, where I can slack off however I want. And I like you, and everyone else too."

"So even if it costs me this life, I'll never let those people who dare harm this place off easy!"

"This is the promise I, Mo Wang, make to all of you as a student of St. Freya and the Captain of the Hyperion."

Mo Wang looked at Kiana with complete sincerity.

Perhaps this was the first time since coming to this world that he had revealed his true feelings.

The panic he had felt upon arriving in this world, the despair over future crises, and the loneliness he felt in this world.

Those things had shaped Mo Wang into someone who only wanted to slack off, whose mouth was full of lies, and who seemed not to care about anything.
