I Am a Saintess in Schicksal Chapter 13

15. So I'm also a Second Generation of Bloodline (Revised)

K422's test results greatly pleased Otto.

This was exactly the Honkai killer he wanted to create.

The Schariac family possessed the ability to manipulate Honkai Energy, while the Kaslana family had extremely high Honkai Energy resistance. However, Cecilia and Siegfried's daughter only exhibited the Kaslana family's Honkai Energy resistance.

This led Otto to believe that possessing both the ability to manipulate Honkai Energy and extremely high Honkai Energy resistance was impossible.

Although Otto wasn't passionate about fighting the Honkai, someone had to.

At the very least, it couldn't interfere with his true objective.

The world wouldn't be short of organizations fighting the Honkai. After all, the frequent Honkai incidents every year constantly created tragedies, and the welfare associations under the Schicksal organization received a large number of widows and orphans annually.

It was also an important breeding ground for Valkyries for the Schicksal organization.

While Valkyries were nothing more than slightly more useful consumables to him, Valkyries with extremely strong combat capabilities against the Honkai did represent the image of the Schicksal organization.

And a Honkai killer was one of Otto's past plans.

An excellent warrior who simultaneously possessed the ability to manipulate Honkai Energy and extremely high Honkai Energy resistance would naturally free him from the frequent Honkai incidents each year.

"K422 is truly my lucky star..."

Ever since K422, an Experiment Subject who was about to be frozen, woke up, the good news had been non-stop.

Kiana, who was on the verge of collapse, now had someone to interact with besides him, and her mental state had clearly improved.

If the real Kiana were allowed to continue collapsing, Otto would have no choice but to continue his brainwashing experiments on the real Kiana.

His granddaughter Theresa, who had been upset with him because of Kiana's situation, had also eased up considerably due to the introduction of this fake.

Most importantly, by tracking Theresa's movements, he had discovered Siegfried Kaslana.

He never expected Kiana to now exhibit the ability to manipulate Honkai Energy.

It also showed him how to arrange the Sixth Divine Key: Black Abyss White Flower.

The previous owners of the Black Abyss White Flower were not solely members of the Schariac family.

However, anyone from the Schariac family who could possess the Black Abyss White Flower was definitely a Saintess of Schariac.

After the death of Cecilia, the previous owner of the Black Abyss White Flower, the Schariac family had submitted a new application, hoping that Maria Schariac would inherit the Black Abyss White Flower.

Even though the Schicksal organization was his domain, Otto would still give some face to the Schariac and Kaslana families. After all, he couldn't fall out with these two great families.

Not to mention that the Schicksal organization was supported and operated by three great families. Even though he had been chipping away at the power of the other two families for years, Otto had never considered expelling them from Schicksal.

He also didn't want to be seen as ungrateful, which would be detrimental to his rule.

Moreover, he always needed capable subordinates.

The Schariac and Kaslana families excelled in this regard.

Therefore, even though Siegfried Kaslana had defected from Schicksal, Otto only pursued Siegfried and even personally visited the Kaslana family to appease them.

As for the Kaslana family's request for Kiana Kaslana to return to the family, Otto naturally pretended not to hear it.

As Cecilia's cousin, Maria was chosen as the next Saintess at a young age due to her early activation of her bloodline power and was specially trained by the family.

Otto naturally understood the Schariac bloodline power better than the Schariac family.

After all, the Schariac family was originally his creation.

Now, he even had a reason to keep the Black Abyss White Flower at Schicksal headquarters.

After all the tests were completed, Otto specifically met his little lucky star.

"Our little princess, I have good news and bad news. Which would you like to hear first?"

Bishop Otto, whose mood was clearly very good, spoke in a tone that was meant to tease a little girl.

It had to be said, Bishop Otto was indeed good-looking.

Words like handsome, high-value, and suitable for cross-dressing could all describe him.

However.

She looked disgusted.

She really couldn't stand the certain "smelly dad" aura emanating from Bishop Otto.

Especially when the smell felt like socks that hadn't been washed in seven days.

"My apologies, my apologies. I was so happy about the test results that I forgot to change my perfume."

Bishop Otto chuckled helplessly.

"Let's hear the good news first."

Even though she didn't know what Bishop Otto was playing at, it didn't stop her from making a choice.

Bishop Otto stopped beating around the bush and said, "The good news is, of course, that you have successfully activated the Schariac family's bloodline power."

"The Schariac family's bloodline power?"

So, she was a Second Generation of Bloodline too.

Bishop Otto couldn't help but laugh, "Ahaha, speaking of which, you still don't know what kind of abilities the Schariac family possesses."

Her activation of the Schariac family's bloodline ability clearly made Bishop Otto very happy; otherwise, the smile wouldn't have been constantly plastered on his face.

"The Schariac family's bloodline power refers to the ability to manipulate Honkai Energy. Your mother, Cecilia Schariac, possessed such an ability."

Bishop Otto continued, "The owner of the Black Abyss White Flower is either the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal, or the Saintess of Schariac. Your mother was the previous Saintess of Schariac, and at the same time, she was the strongest Valkyrie of the Schicksal organization at that time."

"So that's how it is... this is indeed good news."

Thinking that she had awakened the ability to manipulate Honkai Energy, she was naturally very happy.

How could she refuse to improve her strength? The stronger she became, the higher her success rate of rescuing True Kiana would be.

"This isn't all good news. After activating the Schariac family's bloodline power, you have a chance to inherit the Black Abyss White Flower. This is the truly good news."

"Eh?"

Hearing Bishop Otto say this, she indeed became excited.

As soon as she heard that the previous owner of the Black Abyss White Flower was Cecilia, she had wanted to get her hands on it. Moreover, the Black Abyss White Flower was also reacting to her.

Didn't that mean it was destined for her?

"So, the Black Abyss White Flower is mine?"

Bishop Otto said cheerfully, "You can't say that. Listen to the bad news first. As I just said, the owner of the Black Abyss White Flower is either the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal or the Saintess of Schariac, and you don't meet either condition."

"Bishop, didn't I activate the Schariac family's bloodline power? How can I not meet either condition?"

"How could the Schariac family lack members who activate their bloodline power? Your mother was the previous Saintess of Schariac, and the next Saintess has already been chosen long ago."

Being told this, her status as a Second Generation of Bloodline immediately diminished.

She had thought that the Schariac family's bloodline power was unique to her.

Bishop Otto revealed a sly smile and said, "The bad news I wanted to mention is naturally that the Black Abyss White Flower might be inherited by the next Saintess of Schariac..."

K422's eyes fell upon that sly smile, like that of an old fox, and she immediately felt a headache coming on.

How could she not know that Bishop Otto was doing this on purpose?

A weapon that could be held by the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal, or the Saintess of Schariac, was naturally not an ordinary weapon.

From Bishop Otto's perspective, he certainly wouldn't want such a weapon to escape his control.

Therefore, compared to the Saintess of Schariac, Bishop Otto preferred it to be held by the strongest Valkyrie of the Schicksal organization.

But the damage caused by the Second Eruption was too great.

Many excellent S-rank Valkyrie candidates had sacrificed themselves during the Second Eruption.

It was impossible to even promote a new S-rank Valkyrie.

The only S-rank Valkyrie they had now already possessed the Eleventh Divine Key: Judas' Oath.

Otto had originally intended to stall for time, to see if any highly potential Valkyries would emerge among the trainees at headquarters.

And now, was there anyone more suitable than Experiment Subject K422, who had activated the Schariac family's bloodline power?

"Bishop, what should I do?"

Bishop Otto had made it so obvious; she had no choice but to play along.

To be honest, if it were any other weapon, she wouldn't have fought for it.

Even if the Schariac family got it, it wouldn't be a loss, as it was their family after all, and it would also make Bishop Otto very unhappy.

But she couldn't refuse the Black Abyss White Flower.

Even True Kiana would have the same opinion at this moment.

Although letting Bishop Otto succeed in his scheme made her very unhappy.

"Naturally, become the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal, just like your mother." At this moment, Bishop Otto looked like a weasel that had stolen a chicken, chuckling slyly.

She rolled her eyes internally.

Cecilia, strictly speaking, was a member of the Schariac family first, and then the strongest Valkyrie of the Schicksal organization.

Moreover, the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal ultimately perished together with the Second Herrscher. Who would want to be the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal?

"Yes, I will definitely become the strongest Valkyrie like my mother."

Although this was what she thought in her heart, she had to change her words when speaking.

"You said it yourself. Don't complain about the training being too hard later."

"I won't," she said confidently.

Becoming the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal would definitely not be easy. Even if she was a Second Generation of Bloodline, she couldn't immediately defeat Otto and step on Schicksal.

But the stronger she became, the more leeway she would have later, whether it was to save True Kiana or to defect from Schicksal.

Bishop Otto was clearly satisfied with her attitude and was about to smile and pat the little loli's head.

Bishop Otto's hand had barely reached out before she dodged it.

"Uh..."

The atmosphere immediately became awkward.

"Ahem, you not only need to become a powerful Valkyrie like your mother, but also selfless like her. You must understand that you carry not only the power of the bloodline, but also your mother's conviction to protect the people."

Bishop Otto quickly changed the subject to avoid the lingering awkwardness.

Honestly, if her impression of Schicksal wasn't formed by Bishop Otto, she might have actually mistaken Schicksal for some kind of Justice League.

After all, the textbooks Bishop Otto had prepared for her never spared any praise when describing Schicksal. They were full of effusive compliments, painting Schicksal as an entity that carried destiny, protected the people, loved peace, promoted virtue, and was incorruptible and upright.

She naturally appeared to accept this humbly.

In reality, she hadn't absorbed a single word, already thinking about how to discuss this with True Kiana that evening.

16. Ugh, dog head! (Revised)

In a space of darkness, the white-haired, blue-eyed little girl was raging impotently.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it!!"

To avoid being caught in the crossfire, K422 quietly pulled back.

"That bastard! That huge liar!!!"

True Kiana stomped her feet and bared her teeth, like a ruffled rabbit.

Having been bitten before, she was a little timid at this moment.

Despite True Kiana's bared-teeth appearance being silly and cute, once she bit down, it was impossible to break free without considerable effort.

The key was that this little rabbit was difficult to pacify once she went wild.
