Auntie: How Can It Count as Scrounging When It's About the Headmistress?
Certainly
"My sister and I can share a room."
If she lets Yue Xia stay on the second floor while she lives on the third floor, wouldn't she be unable to detect and stop any nighttime attacks that might occur?
Under the Yue Xia: "..."
Theresa is already a mature Valkyrie, and she doesn't want to share a room with her sister!
How am I supposed to go out late at night to hang out with other people, play games, or binge-watch shows if you do this? This is a huge invasion of privacy!
Unfortunately, Kallen was incredibly stubborn about things, and no amount of persuasion could change her mind.
"Alright—"
After dealing with Happy Kallen's matter, they went to Auntie, who had been happily eating. Only after she finished her noodle soup did she realize that Mo Yi was staring at her.
"Your turn, you shameful headmaster—"
"I'm not a shameful dean!"
Derishya loudly corrected him, then slowly recounted why she had come here.
After encountering Kiana, Kallen, Yue Xia, and Lord Green Otto in Late Night Diner, Auntie naturally couldn't stand idly by and watch Kiana and the others, especially since they had already been targeted by her grandfather, Lord Green Otto. Once a powerful force like Schicksal gets going, it's simply not something a small group like Mo Yi's, fighting alone, can contend with.
Especially for Lord Green Otto, who has lived for five hundred years, the opponent's most prominent skill is all kinds of calculations.
Although Kiana and the others had declined Kiana's invitation, she was still worried and came to find her in person. After much difficulty, she finally located Mo Yi's house. (Auntie, who had gotten lost in Changkong City and gone hungry for a day, was taken in by Kiana, who was delivering takeout.)
Theresa wanted to continue persuading Kiana, Mei, and the others to join her St. Freya Academy, as she was confident she could protect them on her turf.
On the other hand, he was worried that Lord Green Otto had already taken action, so he brought the artifact Judas and came here in person to help Kiana and the others resist a possible attack from the Schicksal.
Mo Yi: "..."
Mo Yi wasn't surprised by the reason his aunt came up with; in fact, it was within his expectations. Although she was quite unreliable, she was essentially a kind person who valued relationships, even if she couldn't protect anything in the end.
However, Mo Yi was still very skeptical of the academy head's invitation, because in the original Honkai Impact 3rd storyline, Kiana was taken away from the St. Freya Academy.
During this time, an invasion by Anti-Entropy also occurred, and in the end, Mei had to unleash her power to successfully defeat Welt's clone.
It could be said that almost everyone at the St. Freya Academy is a spy for Schicksal. In fact, it is part of Schicksal itself, having been supported by Schicksal from its inception to its relocation.
You, Derishya, actually said you'd use the power of Schicksal to fight against Schicksal Headquarters. Are you sure you're not joking?
No matter how powerful St. Freya Academy is, it is only a part of the Far East branch of the Schicksal. How could it possibly stand against the Schicksal Headquarters under the absolute control of Lord Green Otto?
Sending Kiana and the others to the St. Freya Academy was, in Mo Yi's view, practically handing them over.
She was nominally protected by Theresa, but the protection was extremely weak. Every move she made was under the surveillance of Lord Green Otto. Once he felt that Kiana and her experimental subjects were ready, he could reach into the useless fence (Theresa's protection) and take away the selected subjects.
In comparison, it's better to stay in a public place like Changkong City. At least in the world Mo Yi lives in, organizations like Schicksal and Anti-Entropy don't have the same absolute power as in Honkai Impact 3rd. As far as Mo Yi knows, the Cultivator Association is the largest supernatural power organization on the surface.
In this environment, Mo Yi only needs to block the whiny monsters secretly sent by Lord Green Otto to deliver experience and equipment to the hero squad. Unlike going to the St. Freya Academy, where it's as if Lord Green Otto are lurking all around.
Of course, these were all Mo Yi's thoughts. Regarding this matter, Mo Yi still held the same decision as before. He was only offering suggestions to Kiana and the others, and the final decision was still up to them.
Clearly, Auntie had already tried to persuade them before Mo Yi returned. Unfortunately, it was all in vain; she couldn't convince any of the Valkyrie.
So, after being refused, Aunt Flo decided to stay at Mo Yi's house for the time being, to protect everyone. (Her travel expenses had already been spent halfway through the journey.)
"Is this your reason for staying?"
Mo Yi agreed in his heart, after all, the situation in Changkong City was still unknown, Koko Tenzang was still lurking in Changkong City, and it seemed that he still wanted to cause trouble.
Although the academy head is a disgrace, his combat strength is still considerable when paired with Judas. Mo Yi is ultimately just one person, and there will always be situations where he can't take care of everything. Having another combatant at home is always a good thing.
So Mo Yi was inclined to let her stay. Well, to put it another way, even if Auntie wanted to leave, Mo Yi would have to find a way to keep her here, at least until the matter of Koko Tenzang release her.
Hmph, you think you can just walk away after entering my Valkyrie Dormitory? Not a chance!
"It doesn't matter who you rent to, as long as you pay the rent."
When Auntie heard about the rent, her expression instantly froze.
PS: Chapter 188, Princess Arc 3: Upon seeing Mo Yi, Reisen felt a surge of excitement, a feeling reminiscent of her memories. This confirmed that it wasn't just a fantasy; she could finally see him in reality. Overjoyed, Reisen looked at Mo Yi's profile and, following her memory, called Mo Yi name. "I am—" Mo Yi looked at the bunny girl emerging from the bamboo forest and replied, "You must be Reisen. I've heard the Princess mention you." Actually, no— "I am—" Being with Mo Yi in person, especially standing beside him, Reisen's heart pounded. Unsure how to respond, she lowered her head shyly and said, "The Princess sent me to fetch you." "Thank you—" "Mm—" Reisen awkwardly led the way, wanting to say something to Mo Yi, whom she was so infatuated with despite it being their first meeting, but unsure what to say, she simply walked on with her head down. Various strange thoughts popped into my head, such as: if I don't say anything, will the other person misunderstand and think I'm the kind of person who's difficult to get along with? (It really is the Princess Arc, umm, it should be a very long chapter, so it's normal that there are other characters' scenes, lol)
Chapter 305: Auntie: How can the Dean's matter be considered freeloading?
The dean's expression was easy to read; his averted gaze and stiff demeanor made it clear to anyone that Mo Yi had hit a nerve.
Mo Yi stared at Auntie with great interest and smiled:
"You don't mean you don't want to pay rent, do you, the headmistress of the St. Freya Academy?"
"Uh (⊙o⊙)..."
When my period started, I had prepared enough money for the trip, but unfortunately, I used up a lot of it while getting lost. In addition, I saw a lot of interesting things and delicious snacks along the way, which consumed some of the money as well.
Finally, when passing by Homu Paradise in Changkong City, Theresa, a loyal fan of HOMU, gave HOMU the Final Ripple... travel fee.
That's why Theresa, who brought a large sum of money with her at the beginning, ended up sleeping on the streets in a miserable state. If Kiana hadn't taken her in, she might have caused all sorts of unimaginable big news.
As for Theresa being the headmistress of the St. Freya Academy, such a large academy, is it possible that she is still poor?
Unfortunately, St. Freya Academy wasn't originally intended to be a profit-making institution; rather, it was a place where Theresa protected those Honkai Messenger, and who knows how much money she was feeding them every day.
The money she earns from missions or other means is simply not enough to cover the expenses of the St. Freya Academy. It basically needs funding from the Schicksal Headquarters to stay afloat.
Mo Yi would say that St. Freya Academy is not safe at all if it cannot even control its own finances.
As for why Lord Green Otto would support Theresa in doing this, besides his affection for her, he also had some ulterior motives. Although in his eyes, Valkyrie were mass-produced products, and except for those particularly powerful models, they were all used as cannon fodder.
Theresa's St. Freya Academy still trained quite a few powerful Valkyrie, which could be considered a continuous supply of Valkyrie for Lord Green Otto.
For example, there's Wendy, who once single-handedly Ji Anya, Mei, and Bronya. Yes, the same Wendy who was eventually defeated by Titan Dad. She's an outstanding graduate of the St. Freya Academy. This shows that Theresa's St. Freya Academy is quite something.
It cannot be said that the dean was wrong. Both his original intention and the efforts he made during that time are commendable.
Before Theresa founded St. Freya Academy, the Valkyrie of Schicksal were treated even worse. After a period of arduous training and development, they were sent to the battlefield as cannon fodder, while those who survived became elite monsters.
It was seeing this situation that led the academy headmaster to establish an academy to train Valkyrie, hoping to enhance Valkyries abilities and reduce their casualty rate on the battlefield. At the very least, before they became official Valkyrie, they could enjoy the happy life that ordinary girls should have, even if it was just a temporary illusion.
Theresa didn't want to stop the practice of using Valkyrie as cannon fodder, but Theresa knew that she couldn't change the way Lord Green Otto and the Schicksal operated with her own thoughts and power.
For various reasons, Theresa's standard of living did not improve after becoming the head of the academy; in fact, it declined considerably. The money she usually used to buy comic books was obtained by deducting wages from employees she was on good terms with. If she wanted to undertake some major projects, such as introducing new teaching equipment, countless people would have their wages and bonuses deducted by her under various pretexts.
