Collapse, I became Duck's daughter at the start?

Seeing that Rosia not only didn't feel regret but looked very happy, "Rosia" really wanted to tap her head.

"Only one left."

Looking at the remaining apple candy, Rosia took a gentle bite.

"It's so sweet..."

"Do you want some?"

Rosia looked at her.

"I don't want to eat this stuff..."

"Rosia" wanted to refuse, but seeing the apple candy after Rosia took a bite, she finally nodded.

"Is it sweet?"

"It's sour!"

"Rosia? You're back?"

Seeing Rosia's figure, Bronya breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she knew nothing would happen, she was still a little worried.

"Rosia, did you find any good food?"

Kiana asked while playing a game.

"Mhm, there's lots of apple candy."

Rosia gently sat next to Bronya, happily watching her and Kiana play the game.

"Is it tasty?"

"It's really sweet."

ps: Daily request for votes, it'll be quick, it'll be quick, because candy is sweet ()

Chapter 27: Useless Divine Key

"Rosia, we're going on a mission. The class monitor will pick you up to play at her place later."

Bronya patted Rosia's little head and said.

"Okay, Mama Bronya, be safe."

Rosia nodded obediently.

Although Kiana and the others were still C-rank Valkyries, even St. Freya Academy occasionally assigned them some simple missions. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if they became B-rank Valkyries without any practical combat experience.

"They're really busy, quite a lot for a bunch of weaklings to want to do."

"Rosia" appeared beside her and said casually.

"Alright, Mama Bronya and the others are trying their best too."

Rosia said helplessly, facing "Rosia's" constant dislike towards them.

"Hmph."

"Rosia" snorted and turned her head away.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

"Rosia... classmate, Bronya asked me to pick you up."

Fu Hua's voice came from outside the door.

As the class monitor, she naturally knew every Valkyrie in the class. She also knew a bit about Rosia, a girl who could barely be considered her classmate.

At first, she thought it was someone Otto sent, but later Otto gave her a task to observe Rosia, which made Fu Hua a bit confused.

"Thank you for your trouble, Class Monitor."

Rosia opened the door, politely lowering her little head.

Looking at the little one in front of her, who only reached her chest, Fu Hua felt a strange emotion.

Especially when she saw the Stigmata on her chest.

"A natural Stigmata awakener, no wonder Otto is paying attention to her."

She hadn't been close to Rosia before, and with Bronya and the others surrounding Rosia so well, she hadn't had a chance to notice.

How rare is a natural Stigmata awakener?

It could be said that among all the active Valkyries in Schicksal, they could be counted on two hands.

"Is there anywhere Rosia wants to go?"

Fu Hua wasn't very used to taking care of children, but she had to initiate the conversation.

Many Valkyrie classmates in the class often discussed how cute and likable Rosia was.

When Fu Hua actually interacted with her, she found that she was even more well-behaved than she had imagined, and she naturally possessed an attractive aura.

"Can Sister Fu Hua take me to tour the academy building?"

Rosia asked with a slightly curious expression.

"Mm... sure."

Fu Hua stared at the child's naturally adorable expression, momentarily dazed, before nodding.

The academy building was usually where official Valkyries rested and stored their weapons. New students typically didn't go there.

However, it wasn't a restricted area, and as an A-rank Valkyrie, Fu Hua was certainly capable of taking someone there.

Somewhere in the Far East

Cocolia was busy arranging various matters in the Far East with her subordinates.

"Aren't your hands reaching a bit too far, Madam?"

At the end of the alley, a blonde youth wearing a dark green hat leaned against the wall and said softly.

"Who are you?"

Cocolia stopped her subordinate, who was about to make a move, her purple eyes narrowing slightly.

She had investigated all the forces in the Far East. Now she was wondering who was so audacious.

"Ha... It doesn't matter who I am, but please don't forget who you are, Madam."

The blonde youth turned around, took off his hat, and smiled.

Just as Cocolia had thoroughly investigated the forces in the Far East, Otto had also thoroughly investigated Cocolia's background.

He hadn't intended to bother with Cocolia initially, as she wasn't someone Otto cared about.

However, the plans she had been deploying in the Far East recently had surprised him.

Cocolia could cause trouble, but she couldn't mess up the entire Far East.

After all, his granddaughter cared a lot about St. Freya Academy.

It didn't matter if the Far East was gone, as long as his granddaughter wasn't too sad.

"Heh, I hope you mind your own business."

Cocolia sneered, unconcerned.

Anti-Entropy had already achieved a high level of proficiency in quantum technology a long time ago. She could instantly escape from danger and wasn't worried about surprise attacks at all.

"Is that so? Then please, do as you please. I hope you won't regret it."

Otto shook his head slightly. A cold glint flashed in his emerald eyes for a moment, but the next moment, it was replaced by a polite smile.

"Playing games."

Watching the disappearing figure of the youth, Cocolia guessed it was likely some scheme by the conservative faction of Anti-Entropy.

However, she no longer cared. With the current strength of her subordinates, those conservatives were no match for her. As long as the leader didn't appear, she would maintain the initiative.

"Seele, Bronya, Rosia..."

There was not a trace of hesitation in Cocolia's eyes.

"No one can stop us."

"Really..."

Otto found it somewhat amusing. Schicksal and Anti-Entropy had been developing peacefully all these years. He thought that even if Welt Yang's subordinates were arrogant, they would restrain themselves after being warned. But he didn't expect their attitude to be so defiant.

"Let her play. I'd like to see how much foundation Anti-Entropy has accumulated over the years."

It wasn't that Otto underestimated Anti-Entropy, but the accumulation of Anti-Entropy and Schicksal over the years was simply not on the same level.

If Otto casually revealed one of his trump cards, it would be enough for Anti-Entropy to handle. Solving Anti-Entropy completely would only be a matter of how much trouble it would cause.

However, in the Sirin Project, Anti-Entropy would play an important role, which was why Otto had been allowing their development.

But allowing them to develop didn't mean occasional warnings weren't necessary.

"Thank you, Sister Fu Hua. I had a lot of fun today."

In the evening, Rosia said happily as she looked at the grey-haired girl who had sent her back.

"It's okay. They might have been... a little too enthusiastic today..."

Fu Hua said helplessly.

It was a period of leisure, and most of the official Valkyries were resting. When Rosia arrived, the entire place was almost out of control.

She was passed around and hugged like a cute doll.

If Fu Hua hadn't intervened, Rosia's face would have been covered in lipstick by now.

In that case, it would have been difficult for her to explain to Bronya.

"It's okay, I like you all very much too. Bye-bye, Sister Fu Hua."

Rosia didn't pay attention to this, but said earnestly.

"Mm."

After Fu Hua left, Rosia looked at the "Rosia" who had been hiding.

"What use do you have for this thing?"

"Rosia" handed her the long black and red sword.

This weapon was very special; even in a form like "Rosia's," it could be touched.

"The Key of Erosion. It can erode data and consciousness, but it can also protect consciousness."

Rosia smiled slightly, her silvery-gray eyes twinkling.

The reason she had Fu Hua take her to the academy building was also to consider whether Theresa might have thrown this weapon into some corner.

"There's no use for this thing for us. After all, even if we die, we'll just become ghosts again. We have the reassembler anyway..."

"Rosia" said casually, leaning against the window.

"Yeah, it's no use, but..."

"Rosia" didn't notice Rosia behind her tilting her head, looking at her back and smiling cutely.

"Perhaps we'll need it."
