Chapter 237

"Come on, Wendy, have a taste..."

(Ah, it seems they're not entirely satisfied.)

Rita thought to herself as she watched Freya use her fork to stuff hot dogs from her plate into the mouth of a little girl who was passing by and getting a drink.

"Waaaaah? Waaaah... Waaaah?!"

The little girl was a bit bewildered when a large hot dog was suddenly stuffed into her mouth.

Then, she bit down hard, breaking the hot dog in half, and thick white fish juice spurted out.

"Ah, it's His Excellency the Grand Bishop!"

Only then did Wendy notice that the person who gave her the hot dog was the dignified Acting Grand Bishop, and she quickly and nervously bowed.

Fish juices kept dripping from the hot dog on the fork and onto the ground.

281. Why am I so weak...?

The hot dog, named Fish-Flavored Hot Dog, is filled with fish sauce.

Freya burned herself on the fish sauce inside when she ate the hot dog with a knife and fork.

As for the taste, it's actually not bad. People who aren't used to it definitely won't like it. It gives you a strange feeling of wondering why a grilled hot dog is soaked in salted fish soup.

After asking Wendy to help carry the fish-flavored hot dogs, the group started strolling through the night market, where the Boro Market at night had a unique charm.

Freya deliberately stayed away from Welt and the others, enjoying this rare holiday with Rita.

"Sir... it wouldn't be right for us to act on our own."

"Don't worry, the mech unit and Electromagnetic Field Device will take all day to install anyway, so let's not worry about anything today and just relax and rest. You can also let the Valkyrie of the secret unit rest for a day."

Freya walked ahead, dressed casually today and wearing sunglasses... Few people recognized her on the streets of London.

Of course, the ice cream shop girl who recognized her earlier was an accident.

At night, Freya wore sunglasses on her head as an accessory, which increased the chances of being recognized, but at the moment she was secretly using the power of Feather of Dust.

Surrounded by black feathers, Freya subtly hinted to passersby that she was just a tourist.

"It's a rare holiday, don't you think?"

"... Yes, we really should relax a bit, but it seems the master has a problem with the hot dog from earlier."

"How could that be? I just admire the British palate."

Freya shrugged, looking completely innocent.

Rita pointed at her, both amused and exasperated, and said, "You were the adult who wanted to try it, but because you didn't like it, you gave it to Wendy... Wendy doesn't like fish."

"Huh? Wendy doesn't like fish?"

"Maybe she doesn't like it, but she really doesn't like British food." Rita felt she should defend the British cuisine that she came from.

However, Freya said, puzzled, "But I just saw Wendy's table order a fish head pie called Royal Cuisine."

"Fish head pie?"

"Hmm, the name on the menu is Stargazy_pie, which can be translated as Starry Sky Pie, but I know this dish is also called Hell's Chant. The main ingredients are pure flour, sardines, salt, pepper, chopped onions, eggs..."

Freya rattled off the main ingredients for that infamous British culinary disaster as if they were her own treasures, demonstrating her extensive knowledge of the dish...

"Wait, I remember when Wendy ordered this dish, it seemed like it was Anne who encouraged her... and before Anne encouraged Wendy, it seemed like she heard something from an adult."

"Yes, it's me!"

Facing Rita's questioning gaze, Freya gave her a thumbs-up and then pointed to herself.

"My lady..." Rita was at a loss for what expression to make when facing Freya.

Although I've always known that my church's Acting Grand Bishop play pranks to relieve stress, isn't it a bit too much to bully an 8-year-old girl?

Oh, by the way, their own Acting Grand Bishop is only a little over 2 years old.

"Okay, I'll apologize to Wendy later. Well, they finally made it to England, so they should definitely try some authentic British culinary disasters!"

Freya would never admit that her culinary team included a British chef.

That chef once let Freya taste the most authentic Stargazy pie in all of Britain.

Wendy and the others tasted the most authentic Stargazy pie, after all... the chef in charge of this British dish was that British chef, Freya secretly arranged for him to be in this place when she chose the open-air restaurant.

Unfortunately Welt was too knowledgeable and experienced, Freya only managed to trick a few naive children.

Xing took the blame for her. After dinner, Freya suggested going to the night market, but Bianca and the others insisted on taking Xing to their hotel room for a "friendly" chat first.

As Old Master Xing was being dragged away, his face was filled with stubbornness and the thrill of finally getting his revenge...

Seeing Freya's smug grin, Rita could only helplessly raise her hand, hoping her Acting Grand Bishop wouldn't play a prank on her.

(Although he always maintained the dignified demeanor of Acting Grand Bishop, he did indeed have a childlike side.)

Although this way of relieving stress involves building happiness on the suffering of others, the little girl who took the blame was very happy, and at the same time, it gave them a wrong understanding of British cuisine.

"British cuisine isn't just about culinary disasters... Really, Lord Freya, next time it's just the two of us traveling in England, I'll definitely let you taste authentic British food."

Rita decided to redeem British cuisine.

"Why wait until the next trip to England? I really want to taste Rita's cooking." Freya smiled, pinched Rita's chin, and teased her adjutant, making her blush.

The night market was bustling, and Freya and Rita quickly let go of their identities. Freya acted like a little girl, enjoying a life experience completely different from her usual routine, while Rita, as a local, or rather, as she considered herself a local, led Freya around as a tour guide.

At this moment, Freya was not some Acting Grand Bishop of Schicksal.

She doesn't need to worry about the lives of tens of thousands of Valkyrie, nor does she need to be responsible for all members of Schicksal.

Here, there is only a naive young lady and a maid who helps her relax.

When Rita saw Freya's fake smile while she was playing, she couldn't help but sigh deeply.

(Lord Freya, can't you even laugh from the bottom of your heart on an occasion like this?)

Although Freya suggested the London trip herself, Rita noticed that Freya was the only one in the group who wasn't truly relaxed. Even when she was being silly to Wendy or playing pranks on her little sister and her little sister's friends, she always had a happy smile on her face.

But... Freya's heart was never truly smiling.

"My lord, wait for me..."

Watching the curious young lady weave through the crowd and disappear from sight in the blink of an eye, Rita quickly chased after her, but instinctively turned her head back.

A glimpse of gold disappeared into the bustling crowd.

In the hotel room that had been booked in advance, Sophia and the others didn't even marvel at the luxury and grandeur of the presidential suite. Instead, they placed a dish of Stargazy pie blossoms, which they had prepared for each person, on the table and pressed them onto the bed.

Mei and Iserin, feeling betrayed, pounced on her with gritted teeth, while Wendy, feeling nauseous, tore and bit at Anzu like a cat with its fur standing on end...

The A-Lynn Sisters, still recovering, leaned on Seele. Anyone who didn't know better would think they had food poisoning. To be honest, the dish was simply awful, but some British people do like it.

Just like fermented Canned Food, most people think of it as shit or a biological weapon when they Canned Food it, but fermented Canned Food is indeed a food.

"By the way, where's Bianca?"

"She was just here a moment ago, but it seems she wants to wander around by herself."

Sophia had been somewhat silent, glanced at Annie, who was being beaten and tickled on the bed by a group of people, and then answered Aurora's question.

Sophia remained quite reserved around the Acting Grand Bishop's sister.

When the other person wanted to be friends with her, Sophia was even a little at a loss.

"Little Xing really loves to court death, but what happened just now was probably my sister's idea."

In fact, Aurora saw Little Xing take a small bite out of curiosity.

At that time, Xing took a bite and then turned her back to everyone, making a very exaggerated expression.

"Acting Grand Bishop, how could this be?"

"Of course it is! My second... my older sister is so cute and loves to bully people."

Aurora also carefully considered her words, since not many people knew that they were three sisters.

This annoyed Aurora, because her second sister had always used the name Kiana Apocalypse and always emphasized to the outside world that Kiana and Aurora were sisters.

Even though Welt and Tesla secretly spread the rumor that they were three sisters, the eldest sister was in the World Serpent Organization, and only two of them appeared in public. Therefore, the two-sister setting was more convincing than the three-sister setting.

Aurora was very worried that her second sister would leave without saying a word.

"So this is another side of the Acting Grand Bishop," Sophia remarked with a touch of wonder.

Aurora proudly puffed out her chest. "My sister is the gentlest person in the world. She's very good to me, even though she likes to tease people... but she'll work hard to make me happy."

Aurora really wanted to tell others how hard her second sister worked.

Although she didn't smile at first, the second sister was actually quite happy. However, after her eldest sister Kiana left, the smiles in her heart became fewer and fewer.

As the Schicksal grew stronger, the Second Sister faced even more pressure on her own.

Only when the three of them gather together in the space of consciousness at night can you see the second sister's genuine smile.

But lately, even those smiles have become less frequent.

"..."

Thinking about this, Aurora also lost some of her enthusiasm.

She thought that St. Freya Academy would help her second sister, and she wanted to make friends to increase her sister's help.

"Aurora, are you alright?"

Seeing Aurora suddenly fall silent, Sophia said with concern.

Aurora shook her head, distressed by her own lack of ambition. She could only use a little spatial power, and could only control a dozen Imaginary Hand.

His second sister alone could control over a thousand Imaginary Hand, and could summon as many as eight Imaginary Giant Claws at the same time.

The second sister can also combine forces such as ice, lightning, fire, decay, consciousness, and gravity with the Spear of the Subspace condensed from imaginary numbers, and can even freely transform the Spear of the Subspace into a strip shape for manipulation.

She's already finding it very difficult just to fix the Imaginary Power into a strangely shaped hand cannon.

Moreover, the cannon does not fire physical ammunition, but rather commands that pierce through space. This is a great burden for Aurora, who has only just begun to come into contact with the power of the Herrscher of the Void, and she needs to wait more than ten seconds between shots.

Despite being one of the three sisters, Aurora felt disgusted with herself because of her own incompetence, feeling as insignificant as Kiana.

"Why am I so weak..."

"????" ×N

Everyone who had been beaten up by Aurora in Combat Class was completely dumbfounded.

I don't quite understand why Aurora ranks first overall, top three in combat power, and fifth in scientific research, would say such a thing.

282. I didn't expect it to be so impressive.

Aurora her own powerlessness, but her words sounded like mockery to the others.

Moreover... it's even more hurtful than Old Master Xing's "everyone here is trash".

Students who rank highly in combat strength will naturally not rank highly in scientific research.

However, Aurora's adoptive mother was Tesla, and her childhood was also surrounded by many top scientists of Anti-Entropy. The retired elders treated Aurora like their own granddaughter and often made some strange little gadgets. Aurora herself was also very interested in mecha, and Ryoma even designed a small Titan for her.

Aurora received an education that was in no way inferior to the elite education her two older sisters received.

Unlike her two older sisters, who were forced into elite education, she pursued it out of genuine interest.

The reason we only got fifth place in scientific research was because there were too many geniuses in the 13th batch of freshmen, even though those geniuses were useless in combat.

The reason she ranks in the top three in combat power is simply because she has fought and lost against Mei, Sophia, and Bianca. Although she has the advantage in physical attributes, her combat experience and talent are indeed lower than these three, and she can only barely suppress Bianca.

The overall score is calculated based on the scores of Combat Class, but... although the maximum score for Combat Class and research courses is 300 points, the scores that can be obtained in Combat Class and research courses are more than 150 points each.

For example, Mei has the highest combat power, scored 192 points. Considering her ranking in the research course, which is over 100, her overall score isn't that bad.

With such outstanding achievements, Aurora was already seen as someone to be chased and admired by the freshmen of the 13th cohort.

When the person involved says, "I'm a total noob," it's like the Seventh Hokage declaring himself trash, leaving the other village's "Kage" with a huge grumble that they don't know where to begin.

"Aurora, Bianca will challenge you to a duel..."

Even the usually quiet Sophia couldn't help but complain at this moment.
