Chapter 314
The old man observed the three women for three days and knew their abilities.
Of course, the old man originally intended to help the three girls when they encountered danger, but he did not expect that the three seemingly weak girls would be so strong.
Um...
The men who raided the place on the first night got their balls smashed.
The old man subconsciously looked at the maid who had been smiling gently. Of the three young girls, she was the oldest and seemed the most rational, but she was the most ruthless.
Normally, the act of smashing a man's testicles is something that only hot-blooded young girls would do.
"Well, leave it to us. I've dealt with large sea creatures before..." Bianca replied confidently.
Sophia nodded in agreement.
As the Alliance and the World Serpent Organization enter a period of rapid development, the strength of the Honkai Beast is also increasing day by day. The marine Honkai Beast, which had never approached the coast before, have now come to the near sea.
Bianca and Sophia, who frequently go on missions, both have experience in naval operations.
Of course, the most important thing is that the God-Slaying Armor used by Bianca and Sophia both have flight modules, so they are not affected by the environment.
Although Sophia didn't bring the God-Slaying Armor this time, Bianca brought a complete set; in fact, she brought two sets of armor and three weapons.
Although Bianca didn't know what the islanders meant by the sea monster Leviathan, she didn't think she couldn't deal with it.
According to one girl's opinion, the minimum standard for Sealed Rank is 0.5 watts, while Bianca's record includes defeating Judgment-class Honkai Beast.
Although this record was achieved by her and Sophia jointly defeating Judgment-class Honkai Beast, neither of them sustained serious injuries after the battle. In a sense, their combat strength was indeed comparable to that of a half -Herrscher...
The old man readily agreed, and then the group boarded the reed boat.
It wasn't until the reed boat reached a vast ocean that the three Valkyrie suddenly realized how insignificant their 'landing ground' was.
During their three days on the island, the three of them did more than just sit idly by. Bianca and Sophia measured the island's circumference on foot, while Rita even surveyed the island from a high vantage point on the rocky mountain.
The island is small, and the people there are ignorant.
In order to get the islanders to help them, they ultimately need to kill the sea monster Leviathan.
It's not that there aren't larger ships on the island, but according to the old man, none of those large ships can cross the sea.
Most importantly, the large ship that could be crossed required a large number of people, and the three Valkyrie were clearly ostracized by the islanders.
Only by defeating the sea monster Leviathan can the three women's predicament be resolved. Not only will the islanders help build a large ship, but they will also obtain ample fresh water and dry rations, and recruit sailors for long voyages.
But just as the old man was maneuvering the reed boat to the vicinity of Leviathan's lair, a mysterious submarine suddenly appeared, drenching the four people on the reed boat.
"??????" X4
For the four, the sudden appearance of the submarine seemed out of place in the story's atmosphere.
Although the atmosphere will be ruined when Bianca and the others are equipped with the God-Slaying Armor, judging from the current atmosphere, it should be an adventure story of an old sailor, a reed boat, and a sea monster.
In traditional revenge stories, the old sailor will die in the battle against the sea monster, and in order to avenge the old sailor, the young sailor will pilot the old sailor's reed boat to fight the sea monster.
Of course, art originates from life, but it transcends life.
The idea of piloting a reed boat to fight a sea monster was already impossible, and with the mysterious submarine surfacing, the old man's reed boat was on the verge of falling apart.
Beneath the vast sky, the sea monster that should have been a monstrous creature in the story was groaning in its death throes, looking both pitiful and delicious.
The submarine floating on the surface of the sea quickly dispatched ships to begin dismembering the sea monster's body.
Another small boat was moving towards the dilapidated reed boat.
Meanwhile, within the Inca Republic, Freya was unaware that her charming lieutenant and two adorable knights had embarked on an adventure.
If she knew, she definitely wouldn't be able to control her inner chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur).
They would also give the sea monster Leviathan the title of 'Sea King'.
Of course, she had no idea that they would board the mysterious submarine 'Caledonius'.
At this point, Freya had already deactivated her Herrscher of Consciousness powers.
After Freya released them from control, everyone went home and back to their mothers, while also imagining what had happened in the past day or two.
"..."
Shigure Kira looked at Freya, opened her mouth, but really didn't know where to begin.
Were you like that in your original world as well?
"In the original world, I had a large number of female servants, and most importantly, my adjutant was very capable. She alone was enough to solve all the problems," Freya said with a wry smile.
Only after parting ways with her charming adjutant did she realize how much she depended on him.
The people Freya manipulated were not completely brainwashed by her, but rather had the prerequisite of serving her added to their original memories, experiences, and backgrounds.
In other words, those who were manipulated by Freya served her from the bottom of their hearts.
It was through this comparison that Freya was able to appreciate Rita's importance.
Freya is a Saintess and also a researcher. Although her scientific research skills are far inferior to others, her ability to freely manipulate Honkai Energy gives her a significant advantage in related research, which often keeps her so busy that she forgets to eat and sleep...
Since Rita joined her, she served Freya almost day and night. Her shrewd and capable work attitude, warm and gentle words and deeds, and humble and devoted posture made Freya fall in love with her without realizing it.
Freya scratched her hair.
She felt that her sexual orientation might be "distorted"... well, "straightened"?
Considering that he was probably a man in his previous life... oh, in his Previous Civilization, it seems quite normal for him to fall in love with this perfect maid.
The alluring maid outfit, which seemed to reveal something with the slightest movement, the perfume emanating from her body that stirred the soul, and the seductive gaze emanating from her wine-red eyes beneath her thick bangs...
Freya felt that if she had the tools to commit the crime, she would probably have been taken down by this perfect maid long ago.
Indeed, Freya carefully recalled her life from childhood to adulthood... Oh, she was only six years old now, still a young girl... Clearly, Rita had planned to spoil her into a 'useless person' who couldn't take care of herself.
But upon closer reflection, given her high position as a Saintess and the assistant to the Grand Bishop's Aide, once the current Grand Bishop steps down, she will be the true Grand Bishop of Schicksal. Why should she do things herself? Wouldn't it be better to let others do them?
Freya didn't explain the problem to Shigure Kira, since she really couldn't take care of herself anyway.
"Shigure Kira..."
"Just call me Sister Kira. Little Freya is Cecilia's daughter, so there's no need to be so polite with family." Shigure Kira said in a light voice.
At first, she might have been unwilling to face the other person. The fact that the other person was Cecilia's daughter seemed to be a reminder of the lifestyle she had abandoned for the past twelve years.
She also admitted that she had indeed given up.
Having been stranded in this strange world for twelve years, Shigure Kira never thought of returning to her original world.
Of course, putting aside the issues of abandoning the original world and the Valkyrie identity for the time being, now that she has reached a consensus with Freya, Shigure Kira naturally places Freya in the position of a junior.
"Shigure Kira, I would like to ask when you can arrange for me to meet with the person in charge of the Inca Republic ... that is, the Speaker?" Freya replied earnestly.
She rarely mixes public and private matters, and only in rare cases will she use public office to settle personal scores.
After all, she was a conscientious and responsible Saintess and Grand Bishop's Aide.
"Little Freya ~ Meeting the Speaker requires an appointment, so come to my house first today."
"..."
Freya sighed softly.
She was eager to quickly contact the Speaker of the Inca Republic and establish a cooperative relationship with a local government agency, which would make investigating the Aether Anchor and reuniting with Bianca and the others much easier.
Moreover, Freya has already promised Shigure Kira to resolve the crisis in this world, making it even more necessary for her to communicate with the major powers in this world.
Shigure Kira clearly doesn't have that ability, but thanks to her idol status, she can still make reservations faster than the average person.
Freya did not refuse Shigure Kira's invitation and went home with Shigure Kira.
Although Shigure Kira used very ordinary ingredients, she made excellent dishes, allowing Freya to experience what delicious food truly meant after a long time.
"Not bad, not bad... It's no worse than what my chef and adjutant make."
Freya was quite fond of Shigure Kira's cooking and didn't hold back her praise.
Shigure Kira shrugged and said, "Actually, I'm not good at cooking. Just like how I'm tone-deaf but still became a time-traveling idol, it's the power of this gem that allows it to take over some of the user's bodily functions, enabling the user to perform actions they normally can't..."
"I am tone-deaf, but this gem will make my tone sound. I am clumsy, but this gem will make my limbs flexible and my coordination at its highest level."
"...Hehe, the power of this gem is indeed interesting."
Freya was surprised; she hadn't paid much attention to the gem before, but now she was focusing her attention on it.
At least she had enough time to study the gem before meeting with the Speaker.
In Freya's view, the power of this gem could prevent the situation where the 'brain' says I know it, but the 'hand' says I don't.
Tesla wanted to develop a combat-aid learning device. If the power of this gem could be utilized, the speed at which the Alliance's combat strength could be increased by another level.
357. Little Freya, are you on your period today?
After dinner, Freya whiled away the time in the living room.
Unfortunately, the Inca Republic was not technologically advanced and didn't even have a television.
Logically speaking, everything in this world is a projection of the Sea of Quantum, mixing people and things from almost every era together.
Freya actually spent a day exploring and discovered that the Republic's level of civilization was roughly equivalent to that of the 19th century.
Whether it was the opera house where Shigure Kira had previously been, or the old furniture and dim incandescent lights in her house, Freya felt as if she had stepped into the 'electric age' described by Jules Verne.
On her way to Shigure Kira's house, Freya also saw a double-decker tram, which gave her a firsthand experience of a romantic era.
Freya leaned back on the soft sofa, stretching and occasionally glancing at Shigure Kira as she cleaned the room.
Although she is a well-known celebrity and idol, she is very down-to-earth and, of course, not very wealthy, so her house is not very big.
The room was a bit messy, but that's what made it feel more lived-in.
Freya smiled and closed her eyes for a short rest.
The irritation that had been building up over the past few days because Rita wasn't around finally subsided at this moment.
"Little Freya, how's my cooking?"
Shigure Kira, who had just finished cleaning the room, asked with a smile.
Freya opened her eyes and looked at the room that Shigure Kira had cleaned; it was clearly Shigure Kira's own bedroom.
Given the size of Shigure Kira's house, even if there were extra guest rooms, there wouldn't be any extra bedding, so he would obviously have to sleep with Shigure Kira.
"Hmm, Sister Kira's cooking is really good... Shall I sleep in this room tonight?"
"I'm sorry, there aren't any extra beds or blankets, so you'll have to sleep with me." Shigure Kira put down the broom, clasped her hands together, and apologized to Freya.
Freya raised an eyebrow slightly, clearly not caring about the matter.
Even if she's someone who prioritizes her career, how could she be so infatuated with sleeping with her favorite idol?
There was no sense of 'wow', 'whoosh', or 'oh ho'.
Of course, Freya herself rarely sleeps alone, and in recent years, Rita has always been by her side.
This is also why she has been suffering from insomnia for several days and why she has become irritable.
Freya couldn't sleep or eat well, which made her somewhat regretful about participating in this exploration trip.
"Never mind, it's my own fault... it's not Rita's fault at all."
Freya sighed inwardly.
She also knew why she had become so useless and unable to take care of herself.
But Freya didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
As the Alliance's Schicksal Saintess and Grand Bishop's assistant, as well as the director of a research institute, she had no time to concern herself with mundane matters.
If you actually spend time on it, it's either a show or a waste of time.
Wasting time is equivalent to wasting someone else's life.
A decision made by the top leadership represents the lives of millions. Freya shook her head slightly, clearing her mind of distracting thoughts.
I don't know if it was because of my encounter with SU.
Ever since she learned about her past life, she has felt that many things are beyond her control.
Although the present self may be the work of the past life, the past self and the present self are not the same person at all. Did the past self set up any backup plans?
