Chapter 120

As for Little Xing, who acted like a big shot, she was still traumatized by Siegfried. As soon as she saw Siegfried walk to K422, she screamed and ran into Cocolia's arms.

Her disheveled appearance naturally drew ridicule from Liliya.

Then the two started punching and kicking each other.

When Liliya and Little Xing first arrived at the orphanage, they were both quiet and disliked each other. However, they soon became best friends, which was something Rosalia and Seele never expected.

They really fought very hard.

Little Xing was immediately beaten up by Liliya sitting on her butt. When she tried to fight back, Little Xing pushed Liliya away, flipped over and pinned Liliya down, grabbing Liliya's hair and tearing at her mouth with her claws, as if she wouldn't stop until she turned Lilia into a big-mouthed monster...

This is probably the extent to which children's fights go.

Seeing the two little ones fighting, K422 easily won them both over with a box of cookies.

Rosalia also pointed her finger and stared at her with pitiful eyes, clearly wanting a share of the delicious cookies.

"Kiana, I will investigate the Stigmata on Little Seele's body as soon as possible..."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

K422 replied.

Upon learning that K422 was heading to Asia, Siegfried was immediately excited. He couldn't believe that Otto could make him taste all the delicacies of Shenzhou.

Complex

129. It provided her with an excellent example.

To be honest, Siegfried's breakfast this time was really good. If Theresa came over to give her feedback, she would definitely be amazed.

After all... on average, it only happens once a year.

However, K422 grew up in an extremely privileged environment, Otto, clearly wanting to prevent a repeat of the situation with Cecilia, decided to raise K422 in a lavish manner.

Even though Siegfried did a decent job, K422 remained expressionless during his evaluation.

Her expression was already rather monotonous, and Siegfried's cooking wasn't particularly impressive either; it had the effect of clothes exploding, but it couldn't make you feel hot like you were on drugs.

K422's overly calm expression and comments naturally aroused Siegfried's antagonistic feelings towards Otto.

This is already a major showdown between a loving biological father and an adoptive father who only supports his child with money.

However, Otto was too rich.

His wealth completely suppressed the fatherly love that Siegfried wanted to express.

However, K422 has only been out of the incubation chamber for less than a year, making it impossible for it to sample all the delicacies of Shenzhou.

Siegfried once ran away from home and nearly went bankrupt in Shenzhou because of food, seemed to have seen the formula for victory.

After inspecting the Honkai battlefield in Russia, K422 decided to head to the Asian Branch ahead of schedule.

Regardless, she hoped to end the Saintess Parade as soon as possible.

Even with Tesla's team of advisors now at Schicksal Headquarters, and Welt Young serving as the Acting Grand Bishop's special advisor, Otto disappearance, and he is slowly losing the power to suppress ambitious individuals.

K422 returns to the orphanage to say goodbye to the children.

"Kiana, boohoo, I'm not sad. If you want to leave, then leave. I don't feel there's anything to be sad about. Boohoo... I won't cry."

At this moment, Little Xing pouted and answered.

At this moment, Little Seele hugged her tightly, looking like she would never let go. "Don't go, sister... Sister Kiana, Little Seele loves Sister Kiana the most... Please don't leave."

"... If I cry, will I get a cookie?" Rosalia, who was sucking her finger, suddenly asked a tricky question.

"Perhaps after this parting, we will never see each other again in this orphanage—because my sister Rosalia and I will be sent to school by our mother."

Liliya, who had been calm, suddenly broke into a mournful expression.

Even though she looks completely expressionless and emotionless, at this moment, she really wanted to cry.

Liliya would rather spend time with her mother and sister than go to school and make new friends.

"I'll come back next time, don't cry, don't cry anymore, you're all good kids." K422 naturally comforted one and then the other.

Being popular is a very distressing thing. K422 went to great lengths to wipe away the little girls' tears before she could leave Cocolia Orphanage with peace of mind.

At the same time, she also gave Cocolia instructions, telling her, as a multi-talented spy, to pay close attention to intelligence about the World Serpent and to focus on protecting Little Seele's safety.

As for the kitchen at Cocolia Orphanage that was burned down, K422 has already arranged for a construction team to come and rebuild it.

After saying goodbye to the lovely children at the Cocolia Orphanage, K422, along with Siegfried and Lewis's team, boarded Floating Battleship and headed to the Asian Branch.

Throughout this process, K422 never had the opportunity to treat Captain Lewis.

Although she wanted to heal Captain Lewis's body, she also had the idea of using the Power of White Flower to conduct experiments on Captain Lewis to stimulate the Stigmata.

Unfortunately, she missed the opportunity to speak with Captain Lewis.

Captain Lewis was still in a wheelchair. In the battle against the escaped Honkai Beast at the Schicksal Headquarters, she had taken all the impact with her body to protect her teammates, so much so that she now needed her teammates' help even to use the communicator.

With the Assault Team heading to the Far East and Laguna taking over as acting manager of the Far East Branch, only Lewis's Valkyrie squad remains of the Valkyrie squad that served as the K422 escort team.

Their Floating Battleship quickly entered the territory of Shenzhou after leaving the Russian region.

The managers of the Asian Branch and a group of Valkyrie from the Asian Branch were already at the airport to welcome her.

The Floating Battleship hovered in the air. After all, the only place in this world with an airport was the Schicksal Headquarters, which was built on the floating islands. Even if they arrived at the Asian Branch, they would not be able to find a place to dock.

K422, along with Siegfried and Lewis, chose to land on Escort Ship.

The Escort Ship carried by the Floating Battleship are not only for escorting the Floating Battleship, but also for transporting personnel to the ground.

After the Escort Ship landed at the airport, K422 was immediately hugged tightly by the older sister from the Asian Branch as soon as she stepped off the Escort Ship. After she had been inhaling the milky scent for a long time, the older sister finally let her go.

Speaking of the main body of the Asian Branch, Shenzhou, the managers and Valkyrie of the Asian Branch naturally speak fluent Chinese.

K422, who had been on the move for less than a year since leaving the incubation chamber, naturally had no exposure to the language, but she didn't know why she could understand Chinese.

And it didn't take long for her to master the language.

To be honest, K422 is very talented in languages, and even she herself is unaware of this talent, since it is indeed too ordinary compared to mental connection and awakening power.

But no one can say that such talent is useless, and when she first developed self-awareness, she was able to communicate with Otto and Amber in English.

Then I quickly learned German, English... and spent some time learning Japanese from the Far East under Theresa's guidance.

K422 has mastered at least three or four languages, which is naturally incomparable to her mother's level, and she can learn other languages gradually.

At this moment, her maid was providing simultaneous interpretation for her.

Before long, K422 had completely mastered the language.

Of course, K422 cannot read or write yet, but barrier-free communication is no longer a problem for her.

Siegfried, who had originally wanted to show off in front of K422, was about to translate the words of the Asian Branch manager when K422 stepped forward, shook the manager's hand, and said gently.

"It's a pleasure to meet you too, the manager of the Asian Branch."

"So Kiana can understand. I thought you didn't know the language of this country, since you needed a maid to translate."

The pretty older sister from the Asian Branch gave him a firm handshake.

"The language of this country is profound and complex. Even now, I still cannot use it fluently. Please forgive me if I say anything wrong. Also, I am looking forward to your introduction of the Sky City Hotel."

When talking about Shenzhou, one cannot help but mention its delicious food.

Every region has its own unique cuisine, and some regions have more than just one dish; they have even developed into several different culinary styles.

Even though he ate and drank well at the Schicksal Headquarters every day, K422 was still very interested in the cuisine of Shenzhou.

Some Valkyrie was naturally confused by Siegfried's attire and Lewis's state.

However, they still sent several extra cars specifically to pick her up from the airport.

K422 didn't forget to invite the Propaganda Department members to have dinner in Sky City; the Asian Branch manager clearly wanted to treat them.

Although the Propaganda Department's presence is not very noticeable, it cannot be denied that the Propaganda Department's people are indeed everywhere.

While she sat in her Escort Ship surveying the Honkai battlefields across Russia, members of the Propaganda Department hid in a corner to take pictures.

When she raised Dawn Glory and hurled it at the ground, the Propaganda Department personnel even hung below the Escort Ship, capturing her imposing presence from a low angle. K422 thought it was probably the Propaganda Department head who wanted to film her inappropriately exposed.

Of course, K422 was well-prepared. The light blue princess dress she wore today was a long dress, and she was also wearing lantern pants underneath, so there was absolutely no flaw in her appearance.

K422 brought the Propaganda Department staff with him in front of the Asian Branch members to prevent them from secretly following them.

Rather than letting them secretly follow us and film us, it would be better to let them film our entire visit to the Asian Branch openly and honestly.

The Propaganda Department of the Schicksal is different from those media outlets that only want to create big news. The Propaganda Department of the Schicksal only serves the Schicksal. No matter what kind of footage is captured, it will only release propaganda videos that are beneficial to the Schicksal Organization.

In Schicksal's database, the Propaganda Department is also a special unit.

It is a branch of the intelligence force.

The intelligence unit of Schicksal is naturally composed of Valkyrie are skilled in disguise and can infiltrate various places. However, these Valkyrie do not necessarily have combat abilities, and some have not even undergone Valkyrie modification surgery. It is precisely because of this that they are able to invade any place.

Some countries prohibit visitors from exhibiting signs of Honkai Energy.

Valkyrie enhanced with Honkai Energy are the targets of these nations that refuse to cooperate with Schicksal.

Of course, these countries also guard against the Anti-Entropy mecha forces, so they don't even allow equipment powered by Honkai Energy to enter the country.

K422's gaze lingered on several female staff members.

But she didn't stay long.

For the Valkyrie of the intelligence unit, they are extremely sensitive to line of sight; even ordinary people can detect gazes from hundreds of meters away.

As the Acting Grand Bishop, K422 naturally had command of the intelligence forces.

K422 had already given them instructions to gather information on the attitudes of the Asian Branch managers and the Valkyrie.

She was eager to know the Asian Branch's attitude now that Otto's deterrent power was waning.

It is not uncommon for local branches to have differing opinions from headquarters, or even choose independence due to ideological conflicts.

K422's decision to have the intelligence unit investigate the Asian Branch was also a precautionary measure.

Of course, she would never show such a thing to Siegfried, Theresa, and the others.

It could be said that Otto, who had meticulously planned against her, provided her with an excellent example.

In order not to entrust his safety to the mercy and charity of others, K422 did not hesitate to have the intelligence forces of the Schicksal Headquarters act on his behalf.

130. Even the most delicious food loses its appeal.

At this moment, K422 and his group boarded a private car and headed to a hotel in Sky City.

To curry favor with her, the Acting Grand Bishop, the managers of the Asian Branch specially booked several tables of Chinese cuisine at the hotel.

Although they had already eaten lunch on the Floating Battleship, K422 couldn't refuse the warm hospitality of the Asian Branch managers, so he led the Lewis team and a group of staff to take a seat.

But for some reason, Siegfried had an expression as if the whole world was against him.

"What's wrong, Mr. Siegfried?"

K422, who was sitting at the dining table waiting for the Chinese food to be served, asked.

She didn't mind getting along well with Siegfried.

However, Siegfried's actions sometimes puzzled her. It was just a meal invited by the manager of the Asian Branch, so why did he make such a distressed expression?

Don't you like Chinese food?

"No, it's nothing..."

Siegfried's response was still accompanied by an expression that said, "Who did I fuck? Who fucked me?"

Completely puzzled, K422 had no choice but to talk to Lewis's team and the staff.

Sky City is the largest industrial and commercial city in Southwest Shenzhou, and also the largest economic center city in Southwest China and the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

The managers of the Asian Branch highly praised the city and regretted that they were having a banquet at a hotel. They strongly recommended that Ms. K422, a Nordic lady, try hot pot.

As the Asian Branch manager vividly described what hot pot was, Siegfried's expression grew increasingly foul, like a rock in a latrine.

Unlike Siegfried's expression, the dishes on the table looked and smelled delicious.

Every dish made K422's mouth water. Although it was her first time using chopsticks, it didn't stop her from enjoying Chinese cuisine.
