The Schicksal Saintess: The Inca Republic

Sophia, standing to the side, had her eyes half-closed; she felt she was about to fall asleep.

All I can say is that the Iron Mask's so-called simple explanations are particularly suitable for hypnosis.

The easy-to-understand explanation is that the Sea of Quantum is composed of countless World Bubble of varying sizes. Smaller World Bubble are easily influenced by other World Bubble and then gradually disappear into nothingness within the Sea of Quantum.

Then, the Iron Mask recounted that the Caledonius originated from a projection shared by a parallel world of similar nature.

The information existing in the Sea of Quantum is not only the main world, but also countless worlds parallel to the main world.

Of course, the idea of the "main world" is not necessarily correct. Perhaps for some wanderers, the world they live in is the parallel world, while the world in which the wanderers live is the true "main world."

Shakespeare came from a world where Honkai did not exist.

"Aaaaaaah!!! Why did I even bother thinking about all this confusing stuff?!"

On the other side, Bianca suddenly clutched her head and screamed.

Although her grades in research courses were not bad, she ultimately could not compare with the professionals in the research group.

At most, they've completed university-level self-study; they're not some kind of PhD or researcher.

Moreover, she immediately forgot all that knowledge back to her teacher during her previous months of assignments.

Ultimately, Bianca was too busy every day to have any time to memorize that knowledge over a long period of time.

Those who ultimately chose the combat training program focused their attention on on-site command, issuing orders, and daily training. Much of the knowledge they learned in school was quickly forgotten once it was no longer applicable.

Bianca and Sophia were both struggling with the Iron Mask's explanation.

They felt that the Iron Mask was deliberately causing trouble.

Rita was recounting the mission she received from the Schicksal Saintess, and also briefly mentioned the situation in the Sea of Quantum.

It doesn't sound that difficult to understand.

But the Iron Mask wanted to increase the difficulty of understanding this, making something that was originally simple more complicated.

Although no expression can be seen under the mask of the Iron Mask, she must be quite pleased right now, after all, a group of people are now falling asleep because of her 'simple' explanation.

Bianca, young and hot-blooded, is now trembling with anger.

Rita was also somewhat amused and exasperated. She felt that it might have been her mistake in deliberately testing them that led to the Iron Mask playing a 'prank' on them.

After the story of the Iron Mask was told, many people fell into thought, while many more fell silent, as if they were completely bewildered.

If Rita's previous words were like a book written in the heavens, then Iron Mask is saying now is a book written without words.

Shakespeare felt he was really dying.

"Alright, I'll stop here then... I can explain the Sea of Quantum in an even simpler way."

"No need!!!" ×N

The sailors on the Caledonius were not exactly cultured people. Of course, even Jimmy, who was cultured, found it very difficult to understand because they were from different fields.

"That Iron Mask is really cunning."

Bianca muttered a complaint under her breath, which quickly earned Sophia's agreement.

Rita could only laugh and cry again, but she could understand Bianca and Sophia's feelings.

Of course, after the Iron Mask's explanation over a period of time, Rita also learned some inside information, but unfortunately, it was similar to the information she had come across.

"Let's go back to the Caledonius first, I want to sleep for a while..."

It was already quite late, and after listening to a lecture that was practically like counting sheep, Shakespeare felt it wouldn't be surprising if he collapsed to the ground and fell fast asleep any second.

Meanwhile, on the other side of this world, it was barely dawn.

While fast asleep, Freya instinctively rolled over and hugged Shigure Kira tightly, who had given up struggling.

Shigure Kira stared blankly at the bedroom ceiling, lost in self-doubt.

362. Aren't you afraid that once you take this swimsuit magazine home, it'll turn into a mother-daughter conflict?!

Shigure Kira's night was not peaceful.

He even dreamt that he was being coiled by a thick python, and groaned in pain all night long.

Even after daybreak, she still couldn't shake off her nightmare.

Of course, Shigure Kira opened her eyes, she knew the source of her nightmare.

Knowing Theresa, she immediately understood that Freya had a bad sleeping posture, and it was said that everyone in the Kaslana family had this problem to some extent.

It seems that the Kaslana Family members subconsciously yearn to embrace their loved ones.

So, the reason why people hug the person next to them when they fall asleep is mostly because the person next to them is trustworthy or they have a good feeling about them.

If you want to know whether the Kaslana Family likes you or not, you can actually find out by sleeping with her.

However, the cost of making that judgment is quite severe; the Kaslana family has a lot of manpower.

Fortunately, the people who can sleep with the Kaslana family are not ordinary people.

As Shigure Kira was feeling sentimental, she suddenly felt the two slender arms around her neck tighten even more, making it ten times harder to breathe.

At this Shigure Kira felt as if she were in the deep sea, experiencing the squeezing pressure of the water from the outside in, and the roaring thirst of her blood...

However, the face of the cute girl next to him was very close, and she even unconsciously rubbed against him.

Even through her pajamas, Shigure Kira could feel the soft, smooth touch of the other person's face, but her consciousness grew increasingly hazy, and her face gradually turned bluish-purple. Instinctively, she raised her hand, wanting to call for help...

But at this moment, she felt like a drowning victim, only able to sense the azure sea receding further and further away from her, and that she would eventually fall into the pitch-black depths of the ocean.

Shigure Kira survived. Just as she felt herself about to die, Freya, who was fast asleep, released her arms from around her neck.

And not long after, Freya also woke up.

"... Little Freya, do you usually sleep alone?"

Shigure Kira said that she changed into her celebrity attire because she had to attend rehearsals today.

Freya nodded occasionally, half-asleep, as she answered.

"Rita is with me now... Rita is my adjutant."

While eating the breakfast prepared by Shigure Kira, Freya asked, "Sister Kira, did you make an appointment for me? I hope to meet the person in charge of this country as soon as possible..."

In fact, given Freya's multiple powers, it wouldn't be difficult for her to meet with the person in charge of this country.

She can use the power of the Herrscher of Consciousness to manipulate the consciousness of those around her, making everyone she manipulates ignore her existence. Then, she can use the power of the Herrscher of Thunder to control all electronic devices and enter any heavily guarded location.

Similar to the combined effect of the third and fifth Herrschers in a certain Academy City, Freya alone, with the power of multiple Herrscher, can commit a complete crime.

If she were to abuse her abilities, she could easily assassinate the rulers of various countries in the main world.

Even Freya herself knew that the power she possessed was too dangerous, and if she didn't restrain it, it would only lead to a worse situation.

Freya has always set boundaries for herself.

Asking Shigure Kira to make an appointment for her was also to contact the Speaker of the Inca Republic through legitimate channels, rather than having her manipulate everyone and all electronic devices she saw and walk directly into the Speaker's office.

"I understand, but Little Freya, we'll have to wait... This is indeed a bit difficult. I'm just a slightly popular idol, not some big shot."

Upon hearing what Shigure Kira said, Freya nodded slightly and once again restrained her actions.

Although the power of each Herrscher is terrifying, the power of the Herrscher of Consciousness is more suited to destroying human civilization.

Herrscher of Thunder and the Herrscher of Flames, who rely on destructive power to destroy human civilization, the Herrscher of Herrscher of Consciousness's Meme Attack are very targeted at humans.

Or rather, any human being capable of reading will be mentally attacked upon seeing the contaminated words, turning them into a 'zombie' manipulated by Freya.

"The only person I can ask for help right now is Sister Kira..."

Freya revealed to Shigure Kira yesterday that she had accidentally separated from her companions and now wanted to find someone to rely on, but couldn't find anyone to rely on.

This is one of the reasons why Shigure Kira.

Another reason is that Shigure Kira felt that since everyone was a girl, it wasn't a big deal if they slept in the same bed.

Hearing Freya plead in a coquettish tone, Shigure Kira blushed slightly, patted her firm chest, and said, "No problem, I'll leave it to you, Kira- neechan. I'll contact the Speaker as soon as possible."

Although Shigure Kira, as she herself said, was only a 'slightly' popular idol, she participated in numerous performances to comfort the people of the Inca Republic.

For the Inca Republic, which is constantly at war, Shigure Kira is very important.

Her singing can soothe the pain of the people.

Unfortunately, there has been war every year, but the war has never ended.

Now, the problem has become increasingly serious.

"... By the way, Sister Kira, is there anywhere around here that sells souvenirs? My adjutant's birthday is coming up soon, and I'm planning to buy a souvenir as a birthday present."

After Freya finished her breakfast of hot milk and bread, she felt more energetic and quickly thought about how many days she had been stranded in this world.

She thought the investigation would end quickly and even arranged a birthday dinner for Rita in real life, but she never expected that such an accident would happen so soon after she set off.

Upon hearing Freya's question, Shigure Kira and soon came up with several good shops.

"I remember there are a few really nice shops. The souvenirs they sell are exquisite. I'll go with you after I finish rehearsing."

"No need, Sister Kira, I can go by myself..."

"Do you have money?" Shigure Kira asked speechlessly.

Then Freya casually tossed out a large wad of cash.

"..."

Shigure Kira's gaze suddenly became blank, and she stared dumbfounded at the large wad of banknotes and asked.

"Little Freya!! Where did you come from? You're not going to do anything illegal, are you?!"

"Oh, it's nothing. Didn't I manipulate a group of people before? And then I made the thugs, unscrupulous businessmen, and corrupt officials among them hand over half of their wealth."

Freya would never say that after she freed these people from her control, she left them a backdoor, where those with grave sins would choose to turn themselves in due to subconscious suggestion.

They might even convert their own house into cash and donate it to the country's charities.

Incidentally, they robbed the rich to help the poor themselves.

"..."

Shigure Kira was naturally a little scared at this moment.

Freya sighed softly.

The power of the Herrscher of Consciousness is indeed terrifying. Just thinking about how the Herrscher of Consciousness can manipulate the thoughts and memories of countless people, Freya felt that if this power fell into the hands of bad people, it might very well lead to doujinshi-style plot developments.

Therefore, while other abilities can be limitless, the power of the Herrscher of Consciousness must have a limit.

Freya offered a brief explanation, Shigure Kira somewhat bewildered.

"Alright, in that case, I won't stop you."

"Of course, I'm not a child, I can take care of myself..."

Freya patted her growing chest to reassure Shigure Kira.

However, after hearing what Freya said, Shigure Kira subconsciously let out a sneer. Perhaps because she had also had such an experience, Shigure Kira knew that Freya definitely did not have the ability to take care of her.

This is commonly referred to as lacking the ability to take care of oneself.

Shigure Kira went to the opera house and rehearsed on stage.

Freya, who had parted ways with her that morning, looked in the direction of the parliament building of the Inca Republic. After a moment of hesitation, she finally gave up her plan to manipulate everyone and just barge in.

Firstly, doing so is tantamount to abandoning one's bottom line, and abandoning the bottom line time and time again will eventually lead to having no bottom line at all.

Freya had no desire to be manipulated by the power of the Herrscher of Consciousness.

Secondly, Freya didn't want to clash with the country's leader. After all, meeting him by manipulating everyone's consciousness could easily lead to misunderstandings...

The most crucial point is that the power of the Herrscher of Consciousness is too terrifying; Freya might end up being hunted down by them as a dangerous individual.

The only way to resolve the crisis that Shigure Kira spoke of is to join forces with the major powers of this world.

Ultimately, even with the assistance of the Second Divine Key: Thousand Worlds of Chariots, the difficulty of transferring from the real world to the Sea of Quantum World Bubble is very high, and the number of teleportation devices is naturally limited.
