However, Duckling seems a little unhappy because she has gained an older sister...

As for how to distinguish between the two Kiana, Ling Xi had considered asking Otto for a bottle of the hair dye that was used for the Dvalinn in the original work, after all...

According to rumors, the reason why Dvalinn is because every night when Dvalinn is asleep, Otto would sneak up to Dvalinn's bedside and use his hair dye to color Dvalinn's hair...

Ahem, okay, actually it should be that Otto modified some of the Dvalinn's genes, which is why she has always been blonde.

Of course, in the end Ling Xi didn't take any real action because...

Isn't she nice with her two white furs?

So, this time, without the Kiana going out of control, Ragna probably wouldn't have sacrificed himself, but then...

Himeko... ugh, will Himeko still go to the St. Freya Academy?

Alas, with the frantic flapping of its own wings, the history of this timeline has long since become unrecognizable...

However, based on his experience, as long as he doesn't prevent the birth of the Third Herrscher, the tree's correction mechanism shouldn't be triggered. After all, the history he's influencing so far is probably just a minor part of the story...

A month later, under Cecilia and Ling Xi's care, the Kiana gradually became more active, and its understanding of the world was basically complete. It even went to school with Kiana and Duckling during the day, although...

Well, how should I put it? Although the names of Dvalinn and Kiana have been swapped, their grades seem to be the same as before...

Besides going to school, the three of them will also receive preliminary Valkyrie training. Of course, given their age, they are just practicing for fun now, simply to give them a basic understanding!

For dinner, Ling Xi brought Sirin to her mother-in-law's house again for a meal. Since Shigure Kira and Cheng Lixue were both away on missions, and the Immortal had returned to Shenzhou to handle some matters, so...

There's no one at home to cook!

Fortunately, my mother-in-law was still home, so I decided to come and freeload a meal without hesitation. As for whether I felt embarrassed, sorry... I've been freeloading at my mother-in-law's house for seven years now, so coming here is just like coming home!

"Bianca, did you listen well in your studies today?"

While serving food to Kiana, Cecilia casually inquired about Kiana situation. After all, the girl had only been in school for less than a week and might not be used to the game yet, just like Kiana had been.

"Uh-huh!"

"I'm very obedient, and... I've made some new friends!" the Kiana said happily.

"Oh, a new friend?"

Cecilia feigned surprise and asked, "Then, do you remember your friend's name?"

"Uh-huh!"

After taking a Kiana of rice, Chongchong confidently declared, "I remembered her name... Rita!"

"Puff..."

Upon hearing this name, Ling Xi, who was drinking chicken soup, immediately spat it out. Fortunately, she turned around quickly enough and didn't spray the soup onto the table, otherwise she would have had to eat instant noodles tonight!

But we can't entirely blame Ling Xi, after all... Rita?

This is really turning into "Your Name"! Zhenqi's teammates have become Duckling, and Kiana's friends have become Rita. Goodness, is this... the inevitable result of historical revision?

Hmm... the Imaginary Tree, how terrifying!

"Give..."

Bebedragon solicitously handed Ling Xi a tissue...

"Thanks..."

Ling Xi casually took it and wiped the chicken soup from her lips...

"What's wrong, Ling Xi? Is there something you want to say?"

Cecilia looked at Ling Xi with a smile and said, "Rita... I remember she's the little girl you brought back from Manchester a little over a month ago, right? Has she also received Valkyrie training?"

"Um... I guess so."

Ling Xi wiped her mouth and said, "However, it seems that she trains with Ragna. She only goes to the school to train when Ragna is on a sortie mission!"

"Oh, Ling Xi, you seem to know her quite well?"

Seeing that Ling Xi knew so much about Rita, Cecilia immediately became interested and couldn't help but tease, "What? Aren't my two daughters enough?"

Ling Xi "..."

"Cough cough!"

Ling Xi coughed and said righteously, "Lady Cecilia, please proceed. Also... the reason I'm paying attention to that girl Rita is because I've discovered that her potential seems quite high; conservatively speaking, she could reach the level of Qiluo and the others, so..."

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "That girl Rita might become one of the S-rank Valkyrie in the future."

"Hmm... that's true..."

Cecilia didn't deny it. She had met Rita before; although she seemed weak on the surface, she was very strong inside, but...

I don't know why that girl likes things related to maids...

Chapter 667 Seele's Clues!

A year later, in 2008, Kiana, Bronya, and Bianca officially began Valkyrie training, and in the same year, Rita also officially began training at Ragna's recommendation!

Meanwhile, a Valkyrie named Himeko Murata from the original Ragna Storm was transferred to the Far East Branch, which is the St. Freya Academy founded by Theresa.

Regarding this matter, Ling Xi could only say, "Imaginary Tree, are you just trying to make it work?"

However, since two of the three starter families have already been placed at Schicksal Headquarters, so... if the Imaginary Tree really follows the plot, will St. Freya Academy still be a major area in the future?

Perhaps, after the three starter families are gone, St. Freya Academy will become the setting for this story.

In 2009, Ling Xi, as usual, studied Honkai with Otto. After all, Ling Xi couldn't have been idle all these years. Although the Doctor and the others had not yet awakened, it did not prevent her and Otto from studying some areas that Previous Era had never been exposed to.

Occasionally, they would invite Ein and Lobster to join them. After all, after nine years of peace, the hostile relationship between Schicksal and Anti-Entropy had basically disappeared. Now, their competition was mainly in the entertainment industry!

Schicksal is going to make a Kallen Heroes movie, Anti-Entropy will make a Red and Blue Strange Doctor!

Schicksal releases Kallen Fantasy Game, Anti-Entropy releases Mecha Legend!

"Ling Xi, do you think the methods of the Sky People can be considered a way to perpetuate civilization?"

Looking at the latest information about the Sky People, Otto also looked at Ling Xi thoughtfully.

"I don't know, but..."

Ling Xi stroked her chin slightly and said, "In my time, humans possessed this ability, but in the end, apart from Griseo carried out the Project Ark, no one chose to escape."

"That's true..."

Otto couldn't help but chuckle and said, "But that should be true. After all, according to our current information, those wandering guys still have some connection with the Honkai. It seems that... even though they fled their homeland, they still can't escape the Honkai."

"I guess so..."

Ling Xi wasn't interested in the methods of the Sky People, because he knew that humanity would definitely defeat the Honkai this time. After all, humanity already possessed half of the divine power, and they could simply seize the other half when the next Finality or God appeared.

Having learned from the previous experience, Ling Xi is quite confident in defeating the Honkai this time!

After all, with the thirteen Herrscher Core combined, plus Seele's ordinary divine power, how could the war not Finality?

Moreover, this time humans also possess half divine authority, so... the kind of thing that unlocked the Finality's power like before is absolutely impossible to happen again.

However, I still haven't received any information from Seele...

"Ding ding..."

At that moment, Ling Xi received an email on her phone from Cocolia.

Ever since Ling Xi decided to sponsor Kolylya Orphanage, Cocolia had been reporting on the orphanage's situation to her every month as requested, and Ling Xi had been keeping her promise, sending money on time every quarter, although...

It was entirely orchestrated by Ein himself, and the sponsorship was conducted in the name of his own laboratory!

Today happens to be July 1st, which is the day Cocolia reports on the orphanage's situation every month. The email contains details of the orphanage's project expenses, the members of the orphanage, and the children who join or are adopted each month.

Cocolia didn't lie to Ling Xi about this. After all, Ling Xi would occasionally take Seele or the "Big Three" to the orphanage to visit and bring the children some candy or cakes. Of course, the main purpose was to see if Seele or the Arlene sisters were there!

As usual, Ling Xi casually checked her emails. She wasn't interested in the other content; her main focus was always on the new children at the orphanage. Unfortunately, after nine years, she still hadn't seen the child she wanted to see, and today was probably no different...

"Um?"

Suddenly, Ling Xi's eyes widened because he saw a familiar name...

Seele Vollerei...

Finally, it's finally here!

Ling Xi was immediately excited. Three years later, then another three years, then another three years, a full nine years, Seele... finally appeared!

Wait, there are two more?

Rosaliya Olenyeva, Liliya Olenyeva, damn it, none of you came when you weren't here, but now that you're here, you all come in a group, huh!

But that's fine too, it's a good opportunity to pack up the orphanage and take it with us, so that these two girls can have the same level of nutrition Seele.

Afterwards, Ling Xi glanced at the list again. Hmm... Xing wasn't on it. Oh well, she didn't care anyway...

"What's wrong, Ling Xi?"

Otto naturally noticed the change in Ling Xi's emotions.

"It's nothing, I'm just going to pick someone up."

Ling Xi simply smiled at Otto and said, "Bishop Otto, let's discuss the research later. I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, Ling Xi didn't wait for Otto's response and turned to leave. Now... Ling Xi just wanted to go to the orphanage immediately and bring Seele back!

By the way, will Seele remember herself?

Seeing Ling Xi's eagerness, Otto was also a little curious, but... that was all. Anyway, as long as Ling Xi was willing to help him save Kallen, then Ling Xi could do whatever she wanted.

After parting ways with Otto, Ling Xi originally wanted to take Duckling with her. After all, if Seele didn't remember her, having Duckling around might make it easier to bring Seele back. After all...

If Seele really doesn't remember him, then she might not want to come back with him. And if that happens, he can't just forcibly take Seele back, can he?

But Duckling is still in school, and...

Although both Seele have long since transformed into their own shapes, it would be quite troublesome if the Duckling actually had some kind of chemical reaction with Seele, causing their wings to get tangled. So...

I'll meet Seele alone for the first time. If Seele doesn't want to come back with me, I can bring Duckling along, or even...

If necessary, I could send the two Kiana and the Duckling to an orphanage for a while, so they could get to know Seele better. Then I could pack them up and take them with me. Anyway...

Others can compromise on their own, even Geminis can compromise temporarily, but Seele...

I absolutely have to bring it back!

Ling Xi quickly summoned his warship and, without the slightest hesitation or delay, ordered all crew members to proceed at full speed to their target, Lake Baikal!

Seele little angel, I'm here...

Chapter 668 Hello, Seele, my name is Ling Xi!

"Seele Vollerei, 9 years old, Estonian, was sent to the orphanage on June 17th."

"Rosaliya Olenyeva, Liliya Olenyeva, 9 years old, a polar bear person, arrived at the orphanage on June 23!"

In the office of Kolylya Orphanage, Ling Xi looked through the information Cocolia had given her and got a general understanding of the three people's situation!

Seele lost her family at a young age and lived in another orphanage in her early years. However, the Honkai event last month caused the orphanage to disappear, so she was sent here!

The same goes for the Arlene sisters; they have never even met their parents, and all they remember is living in an orphanage since they were little!

"Cocolia, I plan to adopt the three of them."

After looking at me, Ling Xi directly stated his purpose. Although it seemed like a discussion, Cocolia actually had no right to refuse!

Out of consideration for others, this orphanage was only able to continue operating thanks to Ling Xi's financial support!

Logically speaking, Ling Xi is the executor of Anti-Entropy, while Cocolia is currently just a mid-level manager. Although she is not solely under Ling Xi's control, Ling Xi's orders are still valid.

Therefore, whether from a moral or logical standpoint, Cocolia had no right to refuse Ling Xi's words!

"I have no objection, but..."

Cocolia looked at Ling Xi seriously and said, "I hope you won't forcibly take them away. If they're willing, I'll definitely cooperate, but... if they're not willing..."

"Um?"

Ling Xi looked at Cocolia with great interest.
