Chapter 357

(You're the same way, Kiana.)

Kiki suddenly asked curiously, "By the way, class monitor, why haven't we seen the Second Herrscher lately?"

Fu Hua was both amused and exasperated, and pointed into the distance.

(Your older sister has the ability to easily put five million people to sleep. Compared to her power, the remnant personality of the Second Herrscher is utterly powerless to fight her. She can stabilize the runaway Honkai Energy within you while you're asleep, and she can extract the two Herrscher Core from your body without causing you any pain. How easy do you think it would be for her to suppress Sirin's personality?)

"..."

Kiki felt that Fu Hua's words made a lot of sense, and couldn't help but feel sullen.

She had been agonizing over these issues for over a month, since in a sense, she was tied to the other party's side.

Just as Fu Hua couldn't suppress her opponent, Kiki didn't think she could win against Freya either. The difference in strength between the two was too great, making it impossible to sense any chance of victory.

In the Sirin resurrection incident before Freya arrived, Bishop Otto implanted the Gem of Serenity into Sirin's body in order to revive the Second Herrscher within her. After the Second Herrscher Sirin's personality awakened, she also took the Conqueror Gem from Mei's body.

However, with Himeko's help, Kiki got rid of Sirin's personality, but the Honkai Energy in her body gradually went out of control, and the Herrscher Core buried in her body did not integrate well, which eventually led Kiki to feel that she was about to die.

It was for this reason that Kiki felt her life was being wasted when Freya forcibly kept her by her side.

She wanted to make this imperfect world a better place before she left it.

Kiki never expected that the thing she was worried about would be solved so easily by the other party.

Now, Kiki is truly lost and confused.

Her biggest fear was that her consciousness would be taken over by the Second Herrscher, but the Second Herrscher's personality has now been completely suppressed, Herrscher Core, which was threatening her life, has also been extracted, which can be considered to have completely solved all the problems.

Now that she had no more worries, Kiki was also confused about what she should do.

Should he strive to make this imperfect world a better place? Or should he search for his father, Siegfried? Or perhaps he should go to Mei, apologize to her, and confess that he wants to stay by her side?

(Don't overthink it. Freya isn't entirely wrong, and your desire to change the world isn't wrong either. However, like Freya, I don't want you to make a meaningless sacrifice. No, I want you to live a good life, Kiana.)

"Squad leader..."

Seeing Fu Hua answer earnestly, Kiki was so moved that she let the tears she had been holding back flow.

Her previous reckless thoughts were indeed related to her physical condition. After knowing that she might not live much longer, Kiki wanted to make the rest of her life shine, even if it was called self-indulgence. She wanted to leave some traces in this world that belonged only to her.

(Don't get too cocky. Be careful. The outside world is in chaos now. The people on this southern island are probably all her captives. Otherwise, these two posing strangely on the beach would have attracted attention long ago.)

Fu Hua pursed her lips and said.

Kiki's gaze followed Fu Hua's gaze as it turned towards the Raven and the Jackal. The Raven and the Jackal were outstanding in both physique and appearance. How could they not attract attention when they were posing in such a mesmerizing way for so long?

Kiki nodded in agreement, which meant she agreed with Fu Hua's statement that perhaps everyone on this southern island had been controlled by Freya.

In fact, Freya did control everyone on the island.

After all, she didn't want to find her own fun, or for the time she spent playing hide-and-seek with Schicksal and the World Serpent to end so quickly.

With a pure and lovely young girl like her, and Jackal and Raven with their curvaceous figures, it would be impossible for them not to attract attention on the beach.

Freya was too lazy to define the scope of the hints, so she simply controlled everyone on the island. After all, the hotel staff and guests on the island only numbered seventy or eighty people in total.

Three days later, a day later than Freya had predicted, Mei finally boarded a speedboat from the nearest city and arrived at this small southern island.

Although Freya reimbursed Mei for her airfare, travel expenses, and all other costs, Mei wasn't traveling to this southern island alone; she also brought Dr. Tesla and Dr. Einstein from the Anti-Entropy organization with her, which explains why she was a day late.

Dr. Tesla and Dr. Einstein were not invited guests, so they had to get passports. Well, these two were smuggled in by the airship that achieved Anti-Entropy, so they couldn't ride the same speedboat as the passengers.

In the end, Mei two friends had to pay for a speedboat themselves to take them to the island.

"Kiana!!"

As soon as Mei stepped onto the island, she saw a girl with a wry smile not far away. She shouted and then rushed over without hesitation, knocking the girl to the ground.

The scene was so beautiful, like countless lilies in full bloom, that Freya instinctively started taking pictures.

(Group: 488749799)

406. So, how did you finally resolve it?

Lily, that is a plant.

Lilies come in many colors when they bloom, but white is the most common. They symbolize elegance, purity, success, and a long and happy marriage.

Its flowers are white, symbolizing a pure and beautiful heart, and also giving people a particularly elegant visual impression.

It also carries the meaning of blessing, so it often appears at weddings to express deep blessings to the newlyweds.

Freya felt that it was appropriate to say "May you have a long and happy marriage" now.

"Mei!?" Kiki didn't expect to be tackled like that. But when she felt the strength of Mei's embrace, her expression became more forlorn.

"Just like Freya said... I should go find you first..."

Kiki never imagined how much harm her departure would cause to those who cherished her.

Of course, this is a common problem in the Kaslana Family.

Even Freya herself, though an outsider with a clearer perspective, found herself caught in the same predicament when it came to her own situation.

At this moment, Mei from the parallel world was only focused on the joy of regaining what she had lost, completely ignoring the bystanders standing to the side.

With a delighted expression, Freya snapped several photos and then greeted Mei's companions with a warm and approachable smile, "Sister Tesla, Sister Einstein, welcome."

Tesla asked curiously, "So you're the Herrscher from a parallel world?"

"That's right, I am Herrscher from a parallel world, what you call an otherworldly Herrscher. You can call me Freya, but I have two names, one is Kiana Apocalypse, and the other is Freya Schariac ... After saying all this, you should have a pretty good idea of who I am. Of course, if you still don't know who I am, then the number K422 should be easy to understand..." Freya replied.

Freya clearly had no intention of hiding her identity. She had waited for Mei on this small southern island for three whole days, already guessing that the Anti-Entropy organization would arrange for someone to accompany her, and given Tesla's personality, she was likely one of those people.

She was not surprised at all when Tesla and Einstein arrived together.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that she herself hinted at having Mei contact the higher-ups of the Anti-Entropy organization.

Mental abilities are just that useful.

Of course, Freya's sudden revelation of her identity did catch Tesla and Einstein completely off guard.

"Uh, ah? Haa!!"

Tesla's surprised shout caused Einstein, who was also initially surprised, to suddenly calm down.

Einstein calmly met Freya's gaze, seemingly trying to discern her true thoughts from Freya eyes.

Einstein quickly abandoned the idea.

She felt as if she were gazing into a tranquil lake, and ultimately, everything about her was reflected in the water.

Although Einstein knew beforehand that the other party possessed psychic abilities, the actual feeling he experienced made Einstein suddenly realize how insignificant he was.

Like ants crawling on the ground, unaware of the vastness of the universe.

"I'm sorry, Sister Einstein, that was a mental rebound."

Freya suddenly smiled at Einstein and said.

Seeing Einstein's bewildered expression, she continued, "It seems you're carrying some kind of device that counteracts mental abilities, but it's backfiring... like trying to put out a fire with a little water, only to have it burn even brighter."

After Freya finished explaining, Einstein understood why he had been infected.

Although she herself does not possess any mental abilities, she carries a safety device that counters mental abilities.

Einstein's original intention was only to protect herself. She did not expect that this countermeasure would trigger Freya's subconscious counterattack, and her consciousness would be completely and forever lost in Freya's mental world.

This is similar to sneezing when your nose comes into contact with dust; it's an instinctive reaction.

Fortunately, Freya reacted quickly, but even so, it still gave Einstein a bad experience.

"To be honest, for a moment just now, I felt like I had been banished into the universe..."

Although Einstein proposed the theory of relativity, it doesn't mean she liked the feeling of being exiled.

Freya shrugged and replied, "I'm so sorry wwwww, but I didn't mean to."

Both Einstein and Tesla were stunned.

This was the first time either of them had heard such an insincere apology, and they felt as if the other person was treating them like idiots.

On the other side, Kiki and Mei, having finished crying, finally got up from the ground.

The two women were blushing, clearly noticing that someone was nearby. Fortunately, the passengers on the speedboat had already been under Freya's mental manipulation the moment they landed on the island, so they didn't witness Kiki and Mei's reunion.

However, Freya had already taken several photos, was not going to let go of this opportunity to tease Kiki.

Freya approached slowly with a pleased... no, a lewd old man's smile on her face. Kiki instinctively pulled Mei back several steps.

"Sister Freya, what are you doing?!"

"Ah, my lovely Kiki ~"

Freya subconsciously mimicked the tone of a certain scoundrel of a bishop, and continued speaking with a cheerful expression.

"Of course, I'm going to have some fun with you... cough cough... I'm going to teach you a lesson~"

Seeing Freya's 'evil' smile, Einstein and Tesla, who were standing nearby, were once again puzzled.

You should know that this Herrscher from another world is the culprit behind the chaos outside.

At least ten million people worldwide are now affected by this, and cell towers in many areas have been damaged, leaving many countries cut off from the outside world.

However, it is impossible for any country to deal with 10 million people for the sake of security. Although only 10 million people are affected, this number is not so conspicuous to those large countries with hundreds of millions of people after being distributed among various countries.

However, it did have a significant impact; if they were to kill them outright, it would mean killing at least several million people for several major powers.

Such a massacre could never be carried out in reality. Moreover, these ten million people are only the current number affected. Every minute and every second, someone will be infected by the Mind Plague.

Of course, the influence of those being manipulated on various countries is relatively minor. Currently, the major powers have only suffered some economic losses. The organizations that are truly affected are the ones fighting against the Honkai.

Among them, the three major organizations, namely the Schicksal, the World Serpent Organization, and the Anti-Entropy Organization, bear the brunt.

Neither Einstein nor Tesla could have imagined that the culprit behind such enormous chaos would be a 'little girl' with such a personality.

"Oh, right, Sister Tesla, let Mr. Welt come directly here. There's no point in keeping him outside the island... that place is also within my reach."

Freya didn't turn around, but spoke to Tesla behind her.

She didn't really care how Tesla and Einstein in this world viewed her. Just as she had repeatedly emphasized before, this world was ultimately not the world she had always lived in. Even if the characters corresponding to her acquaintances in parallel worlds were just strangers with the same appearance.

However, her initial resolve was somewhat shaken by a persistent, stubborn, and headstrong girl.

Even without using her Herrscher of Consciousness abilities, Freya could read the weariness in the other person's heart from their face.

In that instant, Freya saw a pitiful girl in a parallel world where she, this alien being, did not exist, and who became Kiana's substitute in her place.

Just as the girl herself felt about her fate, her destiny was full of misery—like a coffee table covered with tragedies.

In the original world, Freya was also destined to become Kiana's substitute, but in the end, her fate was obviously reversed.

In the end, she was completely separated from Kiana. Even though they were both called Kiana, she was still Kiana Apocalypse.

The original Schicksal Saintess, Acting Grand Bishop, and Strongest Valkyrie of the Schicksal, as well as the current senior researcher of the Alliance, the Schicksal Saintess and Grand Bishop's Aide, and the Alliance's strongest combat force.

Aurora also defied her own fate. She should have followed the same path as Kiki, but now she is the most carefree and happiest of the three sisters.

This is Freya's wish, and it is also Kiana's hope.

Freya and Kiana did not want their youngest sister to bear too much responsibility, even though this youngest sister was on the front line of the fight against Honkai, becoming the youngest senior researcher in history and serving as the assistant to the director of the First Research Institute.

Of course, Freya is actually the youngest senior researcher in history.

However, no one has certified her as a senior researcher, and most importantly, she hasn't bothered to get certified.

Just like that really scoundrel of a Grand Bishop, although he was a researcher, he didn't have the title or credentials of a senior researcher.

It is precisely because Kiki corresponds to Aurora in the original world that Freya loves her new sister even more when comparing their living conditions and experiences. However, this does not contradict her desire to manipulate her.

After Freya pointed out that Welt hadn't gone to the island but was hiding somewhere at sea, Tesla and Einstein seemed to realize that their little tricks were useless. They had no choice but to contact Welt and urge him to come to the island as soon as possible.

A small speedboat was sailing far out at sea from the southern island. Welt, who had just received messages from Tesla and Einstein, was in a daze.

After learning that Mei had obtained a plane ticket and a travel agency invitation, Mei, under the guidance of a hint, contacted the higher-ups of the Anti-Entropy organization. Then, Tesla and Einstein quickly discovered the code left by Freya, which led to this operation.

Welt was positioned as an ambush outside the island. Tesla and Einstein had specifically instructed him before the operation not to trust any messages they sent after arriving on the island.

After all, this time the enemy is a Herrscher can manipulate electronic signals and mind.

Tesla and Einstein couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't become prisoners controlled by the other side after arriving on the island, so they specifically emphasized to Welt that all messages they sent after arriving on the island should be ignored.

"..."

Now, Welt has indeed received a message that is completely contrary to what the two men emphasized before they came to the island.
