"It's all Byakuya's fault, we have to eat dinner out. What should we eat, hehehe~"
"Kiana, aren't you quite happy about this?"
At noon, due to Byakuya's apetite, he finished all the food that was planned for dinner.
So the three of them decided to eat out for dinner.
However, unlike the lively Kiana, Mei, who followed Byakuya like a classic Far Eastern devoted wife, was currently lost in thought, not saying a word.
As for what Mei was thinking at the moment…
(At noon, I heard Byakuya tell Kiana to call him Daddy. Uh, could this be some special kind of play? I think I heard about it somewhere before. Could it be that Byakuya likes that? Should I, should I also…)
Being on this Far Eastern island nation, no matter how much of a high-class young lady Mei used to be, the surrounding environment would always have some topics of that nature drifting into the girl's ears.
It could even be said that in terms of knowledge on this subject, this might be far more knowledgeable than the Paramecium.
At this moment, Mei was lost in some indescribable fantasy, her cheeks flushed, having already transformed into a steam maiden.
"Hmm? Mei, what's wrong?"
Seeing the girl silent for so long, walking with her head down as if deep in thought, Byakuya couldn't help but ask and took her hand.
Lest the girl bump into the utility pole in front of her.
"Eh? Ah? No, nothing! Nothing at all, really…"
"???" x2
Byakuya and Kiana tilted their heads, full of questions, and Mei, realizing her reaction was too strong, lowered her head even further, as if wanting to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
She seemed to hear the other Herrscher queen personality inside her core, scoffing disdainfully at her Gaffe.
Byakuya and Kiana exchanged glances, then seemed to realize something, showing an enlightened expression.
"Oh~ I get it, Mei, you're worried that those guys from yesterday will come looking for trouble again, right? It's fine, it's fine, as long as this Miss is here, no matter how many iron lumps come, I'll dismantle them all into scrap metal!"
"Yeah, I also think there's no need to worry too much for now. No matter what, they wouldn't dare to act openly, unless they don't mind their actions being exposed to the whole world."
Anti-Entropy, after all, was a righteous organization fighting against Honkai. Cocolia was just a foolish and malicious individual case within it and couldn't define the entire Anti-Entropy.
Although her authority as an executive was not low, she would never disregard the city and its civilians to let a Titan army directly attack Byakuya and the others in Changkong City.
Otherwise, countries around the world would definitely put pressure on Anti-Entropy, and Schicksal wouldn't let it go either. Therefore, Cocolia could at most send some assassins to see if they could take them down.
But in front of the current Byakuya and Kiana, this was basically nothing to worry about.
"Trust me, Mei, I already have a solution for this. We'll act tomorrow. For today, just get some good rest and adjust your state, okay?"
"Mm, mm! I trust you, Byakuya."
Seeing Byakuya consider so much for her, Mei nodded touched… At the same time, a greater sense of guilt arose in her heart. She actually had such thoughts about Byakuya, who was helping her so much.
She even thought of calling him Daddy!
It was truly inappropriate. Raiden Mei, Raiden Mei, how could you be so shameless?
Honestly, if she confessed, Byakuya would definitely be stunned, but… he would also definitely give a thumbs-up and say, "Call me whatever you want, call me father!"
"Hehe, Byakuya is still reliable! Although I still don't quite understand, when the time comes, Byakuya, whatever you tell me to do, I'll do it." Kiana said with a silly smile.
"Mm, Kiana, you're very useful."
"Really? Hehe, as expected of me!"
Hearing Byakuya say that, the Paramecium immediately put her hands on her hips proudly, her nose practically pointing to the sky.
This Kiana probably hasn't realized that her subconscious has completely taken Byakuya as her external brain.
However, with her way of thinking, even if she did realize, she probably wouldn't care. She would only think, "How great! It saves even the effort of thinking. I'll just save my brain for playing Plants vs. Zombies."
Byakuya was very happy to see her trust him so much, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to rub this ultimate, invincible, super cute white-haired furball again.
If one were to ask which character in Honkai Impact 3rd best fits the term "pet girl," it would undoubtedly be the early Paramecium, and Pardo the Cat Anchor in Elysian Realm.
As for igniting the flamescion and transforming into the Herrscher of Finality… Byakuya stated, "With me here, will I give her such an opportunity?"
You're overthinking it. My Kiana doesn't need to bear such a heavy mission. Isn't it better to live a happy life without worry?
(By now, Anti-Entropy and Schicksal should have already taken action. These two organizations are easy to guess. The former is likely an S-rank Valkyrie or a Judah Launcher. The latter… the cliché Titan army, right? Cocolia, you're going to go bankrupt.)
(However, there's also a World Serpent hidden in the dark. Hmm, I don't need to worry about that for now. At this stage, the World Serpent won't let itself appear in the public eye.)
After confirming it again in his mind, Byakuya finally relaxed completely. With just this level of difficulty, his plan's success rate was over ninety percent.
Moreover, his strength had greatly increased, and he had become a blind spot for Schicksal and Anti-Entropy. Who would have thought that an ordinary young man could surpass an S-rank Valkyrie in one night?
Even Otto wouldn't have thought of it.
............
"Kiana, although I'm treating, aren't you being a bit too impolite?"
Byakuya's eye twitched as he looked at the small mountain of hamburgers in front of him, thinking that this Paramecium probably ordered all the hamburgers in the store.
Byakuya gritted his teeth and decided to kick this Kiana off the top spot of the pet girl ranking. Although she was cute, the food expenses were truly unbearable.
Pardo is still the best, ah, Pardo, my Pardo, you died so tragically~ When I open the Previous Era instance, I will definitely bring you back to life!
"Hehe, don't mind those details. Aren't we fighting tomorrow? How can we not eat our fill today?"
"Eh~ Alright, alright, don't choke…"
"Wuwuwu! Help! Wuwuwu!"
"See, I just said that and this happens."
Looking at the choking Kiana, whose face had turned completely purple, Mei handed her a cola drink with a wry smile.
Actually, Byakuya preferred fries over hamburgers. However, just as he was about to enjoy the remaining leisure time today and conserve his energy for tomorrow's plan.
Byakuya's gaze was drawn to two turbines that suddenly entered his sight!
He saw a expressionless Bronya, secretly watching them from a distance outside the window.
"Yo, the last of the three main characters has appeared."
Bronya
