Chapter 92
Could it be that I really have some incurable disease, or that bastard bishop's words have come true?
She decisively wrote it down twice more in her mental notebook; that bastard bishop now owed her 173 half-dead debts.
The moment she inherits the position of Grand Bishop, she will definitely settle scores with that bastard bishop.
"Kiana, don't worry, I will definitely help you get better," Rita said earnestly.
K422 remains perplexed by this.
Besides her chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), does she have any other problems?
Really? How serious is it?
"Alright, Kiana, go to sleep." The maid was about to fall off the bed, so she urged her again. "By the way, Rita, be careful. Kiana has a habit of hugging people when she sleeps. Be careful, or you'll die."
"???"
Rita looked confused again.
"Kiana was a member of the Kaslana Family before she changed her surname. The Kaslana Family members all possess terrifying strength... but they are all not very good sleeping postures. Of course, compared to Lady Theresa, Kiana should be better. At most, she will rub against your chest. But you should still be careful. Kiana should be able to lift a Snow Off-road Vehicle with one hand right now."
"..."
A sense of regret inexplicably began to grow in Rita's heart.
Um, did I make this decision too soon? Am I here to die?
98. Is the word "occupy" confused with "occupy"?
Of course, no murders occurred that night.
It's not like that anime where one or two people die every episode before Death God finally stops.
Rita woke up feeling incredibly relieved. "This is probably the first time in my life I've ever slept with such trepidation."
"It can't be that exaggerated, can it?" K422 was speechless.
Compared to Theresa, who became her older sister, K422 felt that her sleeping posture was quite good.
Moreover, after she became Valkyrie, she slept alone more often.
But the reason she slept alone was not because the maids were afraid of dying, but simply because Otto had assigned them new jobs and then selected those she liked from the maid squad, placing them in the room next to hers.
This incident alone made K422 very unhappy with that bastard bishop.
It must be said that although Otto is indeed a scoundrel, he has a very strong ability to control and manipulate people's hearts.
Just as the story of the sun and the north wind describes, Otto adopted a more effective appeasement strategy than a forceful coercive approach.
My good mood that started the morning was immediately and completely ruined by Otto popped into my mind.
So this whole thing has to be blamed on that bastard bishop, he deserves another half-death experience.
K422 muttered to himself, but his gaze was quickly drawn to Rita.
Rita, stretching lazily, is still just a green peach, but you can vaguely see her future allure.
She was just yawning and stretching, and her tight-fitting pajamas didn't reveal any skin. She was only eleven or twelve years old and flat-chested, yet she inexplicably stirred people's hearts.
K422 feels that she will definitely become a bad woman who is good at flirting with men in the future.
"Kiana, why are you looking at me like that?"
"I'm thinking that to prevent you from going astray in the future, I should keep you by my side."
"???"
Rita looked bewildered.
Liv had gotten up early, had already changed into Maid Dress in her room and re-tied the shotgun she had taken off before going to bed to her leg. After the skirt fell down, no one would have guessed that such a big weapon was hidden in the seemingly virtuous Maid Dress.
"Sister Liv, wait for me."
Rita hurriedly crawled past her, got off the bed, and rushed back to her own room.
K422 wasn't in a hurry, since it was already used to being served.
After getting out of bed, she closed her eyes and let the maid change her clothes.
Of course, she didn't want to know what kind of dress she was wearing today.
Today's schedule was simple: a charity event. It was originally planned for the day after tomorrow or the day after that, but no one expected that an Emperor Honkai would emerge from the Honkai Beast, accelerating the Honkai Beast's advance.
Even more unexpectedly, the thousands of Honkai Beasts, led by a single Ice Emperor, were so easily defeated.
Of course, it's not that the Ice Emperor is weak, nor that thousands of Honkai Beast aren't terrifying.
Even if the A-rank Valkyrie are intact, the beast horde without the Emperor Honkai is still very difficult to deal with, let alone the emergence of the Emperor Honkai. Even if the original A-rank Valkyrie in the base are fine, they have no choice but to send out a distress call after discovering the Emperor Honkai.
At that time, the Valkyrie troops that were airdropped were basically Assault Team.
This time, however, the Assault Team didn't even get a chance to step in. K422 proved them wrong with her actions and, through a live stream, let everyone in the Schicksal know that she is Schicksal's future strongest Valkyrie.
Many people have even compared her to Theresa, the current S-rank Valkyrie.
The conclusion drawn is that the K422's firepower is likely stronger.
Theresa possesses Divine Key and has served as S-rank Valkyrie for a long time, making her extremely experienced in combat. K422, on the other hand, is too young and relies on overwhelming firepower in her fighting style, showing a lack of experience in human combat. Although she also Divine Key, she did not use it during the live stream. Therefore, the two should be evenly matched in a battle.
But!
K422 is only nine years old.
At the age of nine, she was already evenly matched with the only S-rank Valkyrie in Schicksal.
So what changes will occur in a few years?
No one could predict how far K422 would grow in a few years, but people in various branches began to believe the absurd propaganda previously Schicksal Headquarters.
What is the perfect inheritance of the Bloodline Power of the Kaslana Family and Schariac Family?
And what about being able to fight against A-rank Valkyrie right after completing Valkyrie modification surgery?
And what will be the strongest Valkyrie in the history of the Schicksal, without exception?
In short, it's as outrageous as it gets, the whole thing is just hype, she's practically portrayed as humanity's savior.
It's as if only she can defeat the Honkai, and that she was born specifically to defeat the Honkai...
A day ago, everyone scoffed at such propaganda; today, a day later...
"What?! Kiana's next stop isn't here? Hurry up and submit two more applications! Our African branch is a great place! It produces beautiful dark-skinned women!! Hmm? Don't all Valkyrie engage in yuri? Ah? Kiana only nine years old? I thought she was like Lady Theresa, so the honey trap didn't work!!"
This is a video accidentally filmed and uploaded by the African branch manager after he lost control of his emotions upon learning where the K422 train was scheduled to stop.
"Kiana's next stop is our Asian Branch. We should welcome her in the best way possible. Oh, you said Kiana likes to eat? That's easy. We can take Kiana to the best hotel in Sky City."
Knowing that K422's next stop was the Asian Branch, the managers here were all happy to book private rooms. In addition to authentic Chinese cuisine, they would definitely serve some Far Eastern dishes. However, considering that K422 is a Nordic princess and might not be used to these specialties, they would also prepare some famous Europe dishes.
It seems that the "Stargazy pie Party" is a famous dish from a certain Europe country, and it absolutely has to be served to make the other party feel the enthusiasm and hospitality of their Asian Branch!
The managers of the North American, South American, and Oceania Branch were naturally very disappointed, having witnessed K422's strength and desperately wanting to keep this Schicksal Saintess.
As for the Far East Branch, the Anti-Entropy members responsible for submitting the application breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Far East Branch not selected; it just wasn't their turn for the next station after that.
She patted the Schicksal logo on her uniform chest and reported the matter to her superior.
Since Theresa was still at the Schicksal Headquarters, Tesla, who was sitting in Theresa's office chair, naturally received a communication from his subordinates.
"Okay, I understand. I will inform Lady Theresa."
After finishing his conversation, Tesla ended the call and glanced at another secretary in the office.
Although the secretary wasn't a member of Anti-Entropy, after spending the last few days together, she had developed an interest in Anti-Entropy organization.
Tesla naturally wanted to finish work quickly so he could go home and spend time with his "good daughter".
Tesla wore glasses that made her look more mature, and her long red hair was tied into a neat single ponytail, making her look like a young mother who had just given birth.
She disguised her identity and conducted a remote interview with Theresa in this disguised image, and has now become the second-in-command of the Far East Branch.
With Theresa still at Schicksal Headquarters, Tesla and another secretary naturally have the authority to manage the entire Far East Branch.
"It's a pity that the Little Princess's next stop isn't our Far East Branch," Tesla replied with a regretful expression.
As she spoke, she contacted Theresa using her communicator.
Another secretary rolled her eyes, too lazy to even comment on the other person's tone.
"Lady Theresa, I am Tra, and I have something important to report to you."
"What's wrong, Tra? By the way... have you ever had the experience of reuniting with a relative's child that you haven't seen in a long time?"
Tesla paused slightly at Theresa's anxious question, but quickly narrowed his eyes.
"Lady Theresa could try bringing toys for the other party. I remember sending you a few trinkets before, saying they were gifts for Kiana. Lady Theresa could also give those trinkets to that relative's child whom you haven't seen in a long time."
"Tra, isn't this inappropriate? These gifts aren't for..."
Theresa was immediately conflicted.
To her, both are Kiana.
"Lady Theresa, our application was not approved. Kiana will not be coming to the Far East, at least not for the next two stops."
"Hey hey hey!!"
Theresa's face immediately darkened.
"Grandpa lied! He said Kiana's next stop was Asia!"
"Lady Theresa, the Far East originally belonged to Asia. It was only because the Asian Branch couldn't manage the Far East, and because you had the idea of independent struggle, that Bishop Otto supported you in establishing a branch in the Far East, wasn't that right?"
"...It seems there is such a thing." Faced with Tesla's speechless expression, Theresa gave an awkward but polite smile.
"I'm sorry, Tra, I might not be feeling well. It's a bit of a surprise for me, but it should be able to help my important friend resolve his inner conflict..."
Theresa's face clearly showed that she was preoccupied, which was why she seemed so restless.
Another secretary also reminded Theresa to take better care of her health.
"Tra, I have faith in your abilities. I'm entrusting the Far East Branch to you."
Theresa has great faith in the abilities of the people she has chosen.
Although I had never met the other person in the Far East Branch before, their resume showed that they had worked there for more than three years, suggesting they were the type who had always worked diligently and quietly.
Theresa felt completely at ease, naturally adjusted her mood, and prepared to see the relative's child.
"Siegfried, you should be relieved once I see the real Kiana."
Meanwhile, at the Far East Branch, Tesla, having ended the communication, took out Theresa's stamp from the drawer and silently stamped it on a document.
What is that?
"Oh, a site application for a new base."
"A site application for a new base? Is it Schicksal?"
"No, Anti-Entropy." After stamping the document, Tesla continued to handle matters related to the Far East Branch.
With the addition of members from Anti-Entropy, the previously clumsy and slow-reacting Far East Branch finally began to function properly. Tesla had no idea how poor Theresa's management skills were originally.
"... Okay, but using the construction team from Schicksal isn't a good idea."
"It's alright, they're all our own people."
"..." The other secretary silently stared at the ceiling after hearing this.
Is this really what they call infiltration? Are you sure you're not confusing it with the word "occupation"?
99. This is no way to court death!
Putting aside the situation at the Far East Branch, nothing major has happened at the Schicksal Headquarters either.
After breakfast, K422 naturally headed to Cocolia Orphanage.
Since they had chosen to invest in this orphanage, K422 naturally had to conduct an on-site inspection, as they couldn't make a decision based solely on the orphanage director's resume.
Given the investigative capabilities of the Schicksal's intelligence agency, it wouldn't be difficult for them to discover that the orphanage director Cocolia, had been wronged.
Moreover, the fact that she became a captain at such a young age shows that she has considerable talent.
Even her superiors felt it was a pity that such a person had left the army and instead started running an orphanage. Of course, it was precisely because of this that she earned the respect of many people.
