I Am a Saintess at Schicksal Chapter 50

"I can see that. Some people really don't follow your orders."

"After all, some people think my ideals are too outdated and not beneficial to Anti-Entropy's development."

As the Alliance Leader, Welt didn't actually interfere with the organization's development. This was also related to Anti-Entropy's Executor system.

Just as Siegfried knew.

Anti-Entropy's Executors possessed considerable authority, and since each Executor acted independently, they generally didn't interfere with each other's methods.

Welt's role was supervision and control. He had to search the world for methods, recruit talent, and excavate ancient relics just to protect this world...

He was partly responsible for the ideological division within Anti-Entropy.

After all, besides the elders, many Executors who joined Anti-Entropy harbored deep resentment towards Bishop Otto. Most of them were scientists or soldiers who had been persecuted by Schicksal.

Sometimes, they wanted revenge on Bishop Otto more than they wanted to fight the Honkai.

The elders who formed Anti-Entropy in its early days were mostly researchers. Even Emma Planck, the nominal head of Schicksal's North American branch, was more like a scientist than a manager.

After all, she was originally a scientist belonging to Schicksal.

Almost no one had experience managing an organization, let alone the fact that the elders' abilities were better suited to working independently.

The Executor system gave them immense freedom, but it also became the root cause of internal ideological differences.

Welt couldn't claim to be absolutely right, so when the radical faction and the conservative faction clashed, he couldn't take sides with the conservatives.

This was also what Tesla and Einstein hoped for.

Fortunately, the conservatives were in the ascendant now.

Welt briefly explained the situation of Anti-Entropy to Siegfried.

"So that's how it is. However, the conservative faction's ideology is interesting: eliminate the Honkai without harming people themselves."

Siegfried found the radical faction's ideas similar to Bishop Otto's style of managing Schicksal.

In fact, Otto's way of managing Schicksal was very effective.

Even though many, including Siegfried, found it unpalatable, they couldn't deny that Otto came up with useful solutions.

It wasn't that no one objected to Otto's methods, but Otto's answer was simple: as long as they could come up with a better plan than the Valkyries and artificial Stigmata.

If they had a problem with it, they could take Honkai Energy weapons and fight the Honkai Beasts themselves.

Faced with Otto's "if you can do better, then do it" attitude, those who opposed him fell silent.

Whether advocating for human rights or morality, it was always the Valkyries of Schicksal who were active on the Honkai battlefield.

And Schicksal also had a complete set of compensation systems.

Many Valkyries who retired from the battlefield and could no longer fight were arranged by Schicksal to work in their welfare institutions, and they even received generous pensions.

"Then what should I do?"

"Naturally, provide experience fighting Honkai Beasts. Anti-Entropy is far inferior to Schicksal in this regard."

Welt said with a wry smile.

It wasn't that Anti-Entropy didn't want to fight on the Honkai battlefield.

But the main Honkai battlefields were where Schicksal's Valkyries were fighting the Honkai.

Once people from Anti-Entropy appeared, the Valkyries would finish off the Honkai Beasts and then turn to fight Anti-Entropy.

To this day, Anti-Entropy had only tested its mech units on small battlefields in small regions.

Furthermore, Anti-Entropy didn't have Schicksal's black technology.

Welt had been to Schicksal's headquarters before, and it was an eye-opener. He didn't expect that Schicksal's headquarters could create projections with substance and even perfectly replicate the power of Honkai Beasts.

That's why Schicksal's Valkyries had rich practical experience fighting Honkai Beasts.

"Oh, I understand that. When I ran away from home before, I even hit a Honkai Beast with a baseball bat."

"..."

Hearing Siegfried's answer, Welt felt an urge to cover his face.

He suddenly doubted whether recruiting Siegfried into Anti-Entropy was the right decision.

"I'm talking about the weaknesses of Honkai Beasts."

"...Don't Honkai Beasts just die when you hit them casually?"

"Mr. Siegfried, the Alliance Leader means providing the experience of ordinary Valkyries fighting Honkai Beasts. You fought alongside Schicksal's Valkyries to clear out Honkai Beasts, so you should have this knowledge. What we want isn't the Kaslana family's 'dumb strength'."

The man who spoke emphasized the words "dumb strength."

"Raiden Ryoma, our Kaslana family isn't just strong. We are warriors born to fight the Honkai."

"So, times have changed. You are now an Executor of Anti-Entropy and a member of the conservative faction. The conservative faction doesn't advocate using people to fight Honkai Beasts; we use mechs, mechs! Don't you remember the one you and Welt rode during the Second Eruption War?"

Raiden Ryoma said irritably.

He didn't know why, but he just found the man in front of him very annoying.

"Ryoma..."

"Alliance Leader, Mr. Siegfried is already one of us. How the Conservatives cooperate is up to the Conservatives to decide."

Raiden Ryoma didn't want to make things difficult for Welt.

After all, recruiting Siegfried was indeed a good thing for Anti-Entropy.

Although the reputation of the Second Eruption was entirely taken by the Schicksal organization, the Anti-Entropy organization knew the crucial role Siegfried played in that war.

The Anti-Entropy organization had tried to recruit Siegfried after the Second Eruption ended.

But they failed at the time.

"Mech, Alahato?!"

Siegfried suddenly became very excited.

During his childhood, he was inspired by the robot anime funded and produced by Anti-Entropy, which gave him the courage to run away from home.

During the Second Eruption, he and Welt only rode that humanoid weapon to the moon and then returned.

They didn't use that humanoid weapon to fight Honkai Beasts and Herrschers at all.

Of course, with the performance designed at the time, it would likely have been blown to pieces the moment it engaged Judgment-class Honkai Beasts and the Second Herrscher.

"Can that fight Honkai Beasts now?"

Siegfried was a little happy.

As a man, how could he dislike robots?

Especially giant humanoid robots with cockpits.

"...It's not impossible, but the output power isn't enough. Currently, Anti-Entropy's mechs are mainly standard Titan Mechs, and the Humo Mechs used in this operation."

The so-called Humo Mech was a Humo suicide robot that ran out of another transport ship when Welt and Siegfried were retreating.

Its appearance was the same as the Humo mascot costume Siegfried had taken off.

To be honest, it was quite effective.

Many Valkyries were intimidated by the appearance of the Humo suicide robots.

"Titan Mechs also have cockpits."

Only men could understand men's preferences.

Siegfried's eyes lit up, and he wished he could pilot a Titan Mech to fight Honkai Beasts right now.

Tesla and Einstein also offered their opinions at this time, hoping Siegfried would cooperate with their mech experiments. After the experiments, they would let Siegfried take a Titan Mech for a stroll around the base.

Siegfried naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Speaking of which, Siegfried, what do you plan to name the vessel for your Second Herrscher powers?"

"Hm? You mean that child? Isn't Kiana Kaslana okay?"

As soon as Siegfried finished speaking, the room fell silent for a moment.

Raiden Ryoma glared fiercely at Siegfried, and Tesla and Einstein couldn't help but sigh.

"Siegfried, are you really going to name that child Kiana? Then what about your own daughter?"

"..."

Siegfried was stunned for a moment.

After all, his own daughter didn't seem to be dead.

It was just that her whereabouts were still unknown. The clone he brought back from Schicksal headquarters was a clone, and the puppet princess pushed out by Otto was also a clone.

Although Theresa kept emphasizing that his daughter wasn't dead, Siegfried still hadn't seen his daughter.

He didn't know how to face the clone, nor had he ever thought about what the clone should be called.

"How about Sirin?"

Welt suggested.

This time, it was Siegfried's turn to raise an eyebrow.

"Even if it's a clone, it's still my daughter. When did it become your place to decide my daughter's name? It's just coming up with a new name, it's not like I can't do it..."

The reactions of Raiden Ryoma and Tesla and the others indeed made Siegfried feel that it was inappropriate to give the clone the name Kiana.

Regardless of whether his daughter was truly dead or not.

He shouldn't have named the clone Kiana.

"I think her name should be Mei," Raiden Ryoma felt it was time to show off his naming skills.

"Mei? Mei Kaslana? What kind of terrible name is that?"

Siegfried immediately rejected it.

Raiden Ryoma was angered by Siegfried's attitude and said unhappily.

"Are you planning to let her run around with the Kaslana surname? You definitely need to give her a completely different name, like Raiden Mei, Raiden Miyuki, or Raiden Chihwa."

The surname Kaslana was very rare, and Raiden Ryoma had no idea what it meant to openly run around with the Kaslana surname.

"But I just think it sounds bad!"

Siegfried also had an opinion. What was this, looking down on his naming ability? He hadn't even started suggesting new names yet.

"How about Frey Nicola?" Tesla chimed in, egging him on.

Einstein, her face devoid of expression, tilted her head and joined the naming convention. "I think she could be called Lise."

Siegfried immediately glared at them.

54. Should Rethink This

As it turned out, the small meeting Walter had called at the dinner table had turned into a naming convention.

Because there was no consensus on the naming issue, they still hadn't decided what to call the vessel for the Second Herrscher's power.

Siegfried, met with opposition from the group, finally stormed off.

Well, he just went to the restroom.

And coincidentally, he contemplated life in the restroom.

"...Seriously, is my naming really that bad?"

He had thought of over a dozen new names, only to be thoroughly despised by that bastard Raiden Ryoma and rejected by Tesla and Einstein.

However, what Raiden Ryoma said did have some merit.

He was currently a wanted man, and the surname Kaslana wasn't a common one. If this clone daughter bore the Kaslana surname, she would likely be discovered by the Schicksal organization very quickly.

But Siegfried felt extremely displeased at the thought of his clone daughter taking the surname of that bastard Raiden Ryoma. It felt as if his own daughter had been snatched away by the brat from the other family.

Of course, Siegfried was unaware that Raiden Ryoma only had one daughter.

And this daughter, after being kidnapped by a terrorist group three years ago, was still recuperating in a private institution under ME Company due to psychological trauma after her rescue.

Raiden Ryoma, however, wanted to find a playmate for his daughter, perhaps to help her regain her former cheerful personality.
