The Valkyrie Sisters Experience Ordinary Life / Leveraging the Earth
This world is complex, and having a certain level of strength is not a bad thing.
At least from now on, she will no longer be treated as a pawn that can be discarded at any time, as she was before.
Her very presence was enough to draw the attention of those powerful figures, preventing them from recklessly reaching out to her.
"It's time to go back!"
Yuxian stretched and led Mash and the children back home; things here were almost over.
Once all the Misaka Sister have been sent away, the Da Vinci Laboratory's mission will be officially complete, and it can close down.
Yuxian was waiting for Da Vinci to return to Chaldea to take over the work. She couldn't let Da Vinci be tied up here for too long. Finishing the project and returning to Chaldea was the priority.
Work hard, Da Vinci-chan.
Yuxian silently cheered her on in his heart.
Section 213, Chapter 40: The Valkyrie Sisters Experiencing Ordinary Life
With the Misaka Sister's situation mostly resolved, Yuxian had some free time again.
Actually, he's been quite free lately; it's Da Vinci who's been busy, not him.
However, Yuxian pretended to be very busy, going in and out of the research institute every day, as if he were using it as a base.
Compared to searching for Nightingale, Da Vinci is clearly more interesting.
Even when she was very busy, she would still make time to talk to Yu Xian and the Yuxian, unlike Nightingale, who was completely unwilling to pay attention to anyone or anything other than her patients when she was busy.
Whether Da Vinci would find it Yuxian or not, remains to be seen.
After the Misaka Sister traveled to various parts of the world in batches, Da Vinci's work finally came to an end, and the research institute gradually became less busy.
She and Butsutobi Shinobu were able to enjoy some rare free time without having to work.
Today, she was dragged out shopping by her children.
Yuxian looked at Da Vinci, who was playing with the children so well and was completely immersed in the game, and suddenly felt a headache coming on.
He simply couldn't treat Da Vinci da Vinci like a child; it felt very incongruous.
But seeing that Da Vinci seemed to be enjoying himself, Yuxian didn't say anything more.
As long as she's happy...
Summer vacation is coming to an end, and the new school season in Academy City is about to begin. There are far fewer people on the streets than usual.
Yuxian guessed that many students were probably rushing to finish their summer homework.
Thinking of this, Yuxian immediately asked, "Da Vinci-chan, will you continue to be a teacher in the new semester?"
Da Vinci replied, "Is Master in a hurry to return to Chaldea?"
"It's not in a rush, I just wanted to know your thoughts."
Yuxian respected Da Vinci's ideas, but compared to others, Da Vinci was Yuxian had to bring back to Chaldea; the place couldn't do without her.
"Let's talk about it in a few days then." Da Vinci did not make a decision immediately.
She said, "I take most of the courses at the schools part-time, so it's not a problem if I stop going. I can say goodbye to them when I'm about to leave."
Yuxian nodded, "That solves the problem."
Da Vinci's meaning was clear: one can leave whenever one wants, Yuxian immediately felt at ease.
"By the way, has the Master made any decisions regarding Nightingale?" Da Vinci asked.
Yuxian gets a headache whenever Nightingale is mentioned.
That was a difficult problem, a very difficult problem.
Nightingale, who worked at the hospital, had no intention of quitting and was actively busy at her post every day.
Yuxian had mentioned returning to Chaldea to her, but Nightingale's attitude was ambiguous, and she did not give a direct response.
Deep down, she probably didn't want to return to Chaldea, a place where she couldn't fulfill her purpose.
Yuxian could only respect her wishes, since Chaldea didn't seem to have any injured people.
"Let's talk to her again when we're ready to leave."
Yuxian had already mentally prepared himself for not being able to bring Nightingale back to Chaldea.
The Valkyrie sisters, on the other hand, re-established their contract with Yuxian early on. Although they didn't talk much, they were very eager to return to Chaldea.
They had nothing to do in Academy City, but they were also eager to find their eldest sister, Brunhilde.
Yuxian asked curiously, "So what are the Valkyrie sisters doing? I never see them all day."
He hadn't seen the three sisters for a long time, and they should be fine in Academy City.
Yuxian had no idea what they were doing and was a little curious.
Da Vinci smiled mysteriously; she naturally knew their whereabouts, as they lived together.
She didn't tell Yuxian the answer immediately, but instead kept him in suspense. "Master, guess."
"It would be a miracle if I could guess that," Yuxian thought to himself.
However, he still thought about it seriously for a moment, and said uncertainly, "Are they saying goodbye to the Misaka Sister?"
Da Vinci shook his head and rolled his eyes at Yuxian. The Misaka Sister have already been sent away. What's with all the "send away" nonsense? At least try to be more thoughtful when making wild guesses.
"Are they just staying home playing games?"
Mash couldn't help but chime in, "Only Master would enjoy staying home and playing games!"
Yuxian immediately retorted, "The Osakabehime also likes it."
Mash felt that her senior was hopeless and had started to follow in the footsteps of Osakabehime, who was a complete otaku!
"No," Da Vinci shook his head and continued to deny it.
"I really couldn't have guessed that."
Yuxian gave up on continuing this boring game and waited for Da Vinci to give the answer directly.
"Clang clang clang clang!"
Da Vinci turned around and pointed to a restaurant in front of him. "Look there!"
Yuxian looked in the direction she indicated, and what he saw immediately dazzled him.
"This... this... this is too outrageous!"
Could that pink-haired girl handing out flyers in the distance be... Hildr?
He couldn't help but rub his eyes, wondering if there was something wrong with his vision.
Da Vinci quickly asked, "How is it? How is it? Master, are you tempted?"
"I'm tempted... no, I'm not tempted at all, I even feel like laughing."
Yuxian immediately realized that this was very likely the work of Da Vinci.
He looked at Da Vinci with a skeptical eye, and said with certainty, "This was your idea, wasn't it?"
"It's just because they're idle all day, so we're giving them a chance to experience life!"
Da Vinci wore an expression that said, "I'm doing this for their own good," and spoke with a smug tone.
If you cut her open, it must be black inside.
Yuxian found it hard to believe that the Valkyrie sisters, who usually seemed so cold and aloof, would be working as waitresses here.
Most importantly, this is not your average waiter/waitress.
This is a maid cafe!!!
The maid outfit doesn't suit Valkyrie's style at all!
They are Valkyries who guide the souls of warriors to Valhalla, not the souls of gentlemen!
Da Vinci ignored what Yuxian was thinking and urged, "Let's go, let's go and visit them, bring them some business."
Yuxian hesitated, somewhat afraid to go over.
But seeing that everyone else had already gone over, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow.
He was worried that one day Brunhilde would find out about this and learn how her sisters had been treated, and might use her Noble Phantasm on them.
"Hildr- chan!" Da Vinci jumped up to greet her.
Hildr turned to look at them. Yuxian had no other choice at this point, so he could only smile and greet her, "Are you working here?"
"Yes." Hildr nodded calmly. "Da Vinci-chan said that we should experience the lives of ordinary people."
This life is indeed quite ordinary...
"Come on, come on, Hildr- chan, please lead us inside. We're here to patronize your business today!"
Da Vinci pulled Hildr along and headed into the coffee shop.
Yuxian shook his head helplessly and led everyone inside.
Chapter 41, Section 214 Gang Dong Di Qiu
The coffee shop was doing so-so; there weren't many customers, and it wasn't bustling with activity.
Upon entering, Yuxian found the environment quite quiet, which felt rather pleasant.
They found a spacious spot to sit down.
At this moment, Frigg walked over. She was also dressed in a maid outfit. Frigg, with her good figure, looked quite charming in the maid outfit.
Yuxian didn't dare to look too closely, only stealing a few glances at it, then a few more.
"It's really quite good," he thought to himself.
"What would you like to eat?" Frigg asked softly.
"Ice cream!"
"Cake!"
"Dessert!"
The children placed their orders one by one, Frigg carefully wrote them down one by one, showing her great dedication and responsibility to her work.
Finally, she looked at Yuxian and asked Yuxian what he wanted to eat.
Yuxian didn't have any special requests; he just wanted to relax and accompany everyone shopping today.
So he smiled and said, "Bring whatever you like, whatever you have to eat."
Frigg nodded and turned to prepare food for everyone.
The food was served quickly, Yuxian after they finished eating, they didn't linger there, so as not to interfere with the Valkyrie sisters' work.
As they were leaving, Astrid was at the cashier. Yuxian paid the bill and said goodbye.
This chance encounter revealed another side of the Valkyrie sisters to him, and also gave him a deeper understanding of Da Vinci's perverse sense of humor.
Yuxian became wary of her, lest she lead him into a trap at any moment.
Yuxian glanced at Da Vinci, who was playing with the children. This genius was not to be underestimated in some ways.
People continued to wander around the streets, without any particular purpose, simply to relax and clear their heads.
