Chapter 110

True Kiana chuckled. "Why use your index finger and thumb to gesture for a better and bigger house? Shouldn't you be waving your arms out like you're holding a watermelon?"

K422 naturally had no idea what True Kiana was thinking.

Otherwise, I would definitely tell this silly and crybaby girl what Cosmos in Fingertips is.

And Theresa, who had been sobbing, finally stopped crying.

It's clear that she and Cecilia have a really good relationship.

"Alright, Miss Theresa, if you keep crying, your face will be all stained..."

K422 walked up with a smile and took out a handkerchief to wipe Theresa's face, which was covered in tears.

"Waaah, Cecilia, I miss you... Waaah."

As she wiped her face, Theresa seemed to burst into tears again.

"Theresa, there's no time for you to be discouraged now. If you want to protect True Kiana, we still have to rely on you... That bastard Otto wouldn't just give you candy without poisoning you."

K422 patted Theresa's head and smiled wryly.

Based on her understanding of Otto, and given the nature of that bastard bishop Otto... returning True Kiana's original home to them might not necessarily be a good thing.

They even thoughtfully sent Cecilia's birthday gift for True Kiana here.

Who knows what trap they might be secretly setting for her?

"Yes, I understand."

Theresa wiped away her tears and immediately cheered herself up.

"True Kiana..."

"Go ahead, Xiao Er, I want to be alone..."

"Alright then, but I'll arrange for someone to keep you company tomorrow. By the way, do you have any requirements for the girl who's going to keep you company?"

K422 asked.

After all, there are so many rooms in the underground shelter, each room can fit several pretty young ladies. Since Otto abandoned this secret force to her, how this secret force is used is naturally up to her.

Big breasts, slim waists, or long legs... It has to be said that the Valkyrie of the secret forces are all very beautiful. K422 seriously suspects that Otto took appearance into consideration when selecting them... Those who weren't good-looking were thrown into the subordinate units of the secret forces.

It's most comfortable to sleep with a busty Valkyrie, especially since they come with their own soft and innocent pillow.

"No demands!" True Kiana raised an eyebrow. For some reason, she really wanted to call her younger sister a beast at that moment.

So what exactly do these two characters mean?

K422 distributed some of the Valkyrie from the secret force to the surrounding houses, and then took Theresa back to headquarters on Escort Ship.

The two are currently receiving a lot of attention, and K422 doesn't want to involve True Kiana.

After K422 and Theresa left, True Kiana's gaze swept over the two Valkyrie from the secret service standing at the door. She knew that more Valkyrie from the secret service were stationed in the surrounding houses.

The houses were also renovated to prevent their actions from being too conspicuous. Of course, True Kiana thought she should remind K422 that not eating, drinking, or going out would only make them more conspicuous.

Fortunately, the entire residential area had been taken over by Otto, and there were many ways to remain inconspicuous. True Kiana wasn't worried that her clever younger sister wouldn't understand.

Her gaze fell on her mother's gift.

The white birthday dress was called Winter Princess. She gently stroked the dress made of fine silk, her gaze gradually turning from soft to cold. She returned to her room with the dress, which she couldn't yet wear. True Kiana could no longer suppress the voice in her heart.

"Otto!!!!!"

The flickering black candlelight in my heart reignited.

Then, her consciousness sank into her own Stigmata Space.

In the blazing wilderness, True Kiana's gaze fell upon the figure wielding Flame Greatsword.

"Great Ancestor... I have arrived."

"She's a nice little sister."

The man who saw the sisterly affection through True Kiana's eyes smiled nostalgically.

"Yes, Great Ancestor, that was my proud sister."

As she said this, the same Flame Greatsword appeared in True Kiana's hand.

Please enlighten me!

"Okay, come on."

The two swords clashed, and flames raged across the desolate wilderness.

118. Like a candle flickering in the wind.

The man smiled as he watched the young girl dragging forward, her hands gripping Flame Greatsword.

He casually raised his Flame Greatsword to block the young girl's attack from below.

The two swords clashed, and flames exploded.

The Flame Greatsword that the young girl was gripping tightly in both hands was deflected.

But the effective attacks did not discourage the young girl.

She spun her flaming Flame Greatsword using the force of the recoil, her petite body being propelled backward by the inertia. The man nodded, watching as the young girl drew a circle on the ground with her Flame Greatsword before slashing down with even greater force.

The man initially advised young girls against using the Flame Greatsword.

However, the young girl came up with a unique idea: how to use a greatsword with her petite body.

What truly pleased him was the young girl's fighting style.

The man remained motionless as the Flame Greatsword was swung more violently towards him, turning into a wisp of flame just before it struck him. At the same time, he lunged at the young girl behind him, holding two oddly shaped pistols upside down.

Bang! Bang!

Before the young girl could turn around, she fired at the two pistols pointed behind her.

Two Flame Bullet were fired at the man's back.

The man smiled and casually swung his sword behind him. The flames on the Flame Greatsword erupted like a volcanic eruption, engulfing the two Flame Bullets and also swallowing the young girl's figure.

The erupting flames surged and rolled into the distance, like waves of fire.

"Okay, this is the first time today."

The young girl's figure reappeared on the wasteland not far away, and the man nodded.

"Great Ancestor, the damage just now..."

"Do you expect the enemy to abide by the agreement not to use their full strength?"

"No, I want to know how that move was done. I also use Greatsword Mode, but the Greatsword Mode's output can't unleash flames like that..."

Before she finished speaking, the two pistols in the young girl's hands merged into a uniquely shaped hand cannon.

However, just as she was about to pull the trigger, the man hurled his Flame Greatsword. The young girl, her body pierced through, screamed in agony as she was consumed by the flames unleashed by the Flame Greatsword.

Everything then returned to normal.

"This is the second time today, with ninety-eight more to go..."

"Great Ancestor..." The young girl's face was pale.

"Your trickery was too poor. You're not suited to using tricks. The moment you locked your gaze on my vital points, you already revealed your intention to attack."

After speaking, the man remained standing in place, waiting for the young girl to launch her attack.

Real-world experience is always the best and fastest way to learn.

He easily dealt with the young girl who charged forward again, wielding Flame Greatsword in both hands.

Height, weight, and strength are weaknesses of young girls, yet men use their superhuman strength to overcome them without a care.

In the instant the two swords clashed, the young girl was violently cleaved in two.

It must be said that the young girl is very talented.

The Fire of Hatred also caused a mutation in her original talent.

Stigmata are the legacy left by the previous generation of humanity in their fight against the Honkai.

At the end of the previous civilization's era, human technology had evolved to the point where they could transcribe knowledge into gene fragments and pass it down using genetic material.

Modern humans all carry varying degrees of Stigmata gene fragments in their bodies. When these gene fragments reach a certain level of integrity in an individual, that individual will reveal Stigmata.

The Stigmata contain a wealth of technology, knowledge, and power far exceeding modern science, and will manifest itself directly in the host in the form of abilities that modern science cannot explain.

The Kaslana Family's Stigmata record the essence of the previous civilization's generations.

As a test-tube baby created by him and Mei using their DNA, the Stigmata will automatically select the most suitable power for the host.

Normally, the Kaslana Family's Stigmata are called Wings of Protection.

In addition to its extremely high Honkai Energy resistance, it also possesses unparalleled monstrous strength and the Ice power of the Emperor-class Honkai Beast Pvanty.

The man looked at his representative and successor.

The mutated Stigmata has formed a talent most suitable for young girls.

It's a pity he didn't understand the Stigmata system, otherwise he could have better understood the talent possessed by the young girl.

But the other party's talent undoubtedly stems from hatred.

"The more injured and in pain one feels, the greater one's hatred becomes, and along with that hatred, one's combat ability also increases..."

When the young girl died for the ninetieth time, the man had to take her Flame Greatsword seriously as she wielded it with both hands.

The flames from the clash of the two swords seemed to burn the sky to ashes.

The man gripped his sword and took a slight step back. At this moment, the young girl, whose combat abilities were surging wildly, was wreathed in black flames.

Even the Flame Greatsword in his hand transformed into a Blackflame Greatsword. Faintly, the Blackflame Greatsword emitted a mournful cry, its blade covered in cracks, and even the Herrscher Core inside was filled with fear.

The black flames swirling around the greatsword can automatically absorb the surrounding Honkai Energy, and the more Honkai Energy it absorbs, the more terrifying the greatsword's power becomes.

The man once simulated a Honkai Beast, but in its Black Flame state, the greatsword only cleaved through the Honkai Beast's outer skin. The black flames then penetrated the Honkai Beast's body, and all the Honkai Energy within the Honkai Beast was converted into fuel for the black flames, ultimately burning it to ashes.

Honkai Energy can be converted into heat energy, which can thus form flames. However, the black flames clearly possess power far exceeding the conversion rate. Such power cannot be achieved through conversion alone; it is evident that Honkai Energy being used as fuel...

"Come on, successor... today's final ten games."

The successor's outstanding performance, ironically, left the man with some regret.

Why was I born in this era?

With his unwavering will, mutated talent, and exceptional combat skills, he was capable of becoming the most outstanding Fusion Warrior. If he had been born in the previous civilization, he would certainly have become one of his most valued subordinates.

The final ten games of the day ended quickly, and the young girl's body slowly disappeared from this world.

For a girl who is too young, she can only endure a hundred deaths a day. He wanted to use all his skills to nurture this successor, but unfortunately, he was limited by the girl's young mind.

"It's just a pity that because of her sister, the flame in her heart could never grow stronger..."

The man existing in this Stigmata Space naturally knew the Fire of Hatred in the young girl's heart, which was occasionally reduced to a flickering candle by the foul-mouthed and arrogant younger sister of the young girl.

A talent altered by hatred will naturally cease to exist once that hatred disappears.

"..."

The man's thoughtful gaze seemed to pierce through the Stigmata Space.

Perhaps a small accident could cause that black flame to burn forever.

True Kiana opened her eyes and found herself in a pitch-black space.

The exhaustion from a hundred deaths seemed to be somewhat relieved in this space.

She couldn't help but yawn.

"True Kiana, good evening~" K422 greeted as she approached.

"Good evening, Xiao Er, Xiao San... is here."

K423, who had just appeared on the other side, pouted when she saw the two of them, and a wave of grievance washed over her, causing her to burst into tears.

Then it shot over like a rocket.
