Does Bronya have any other choice?
Bronya said expressionlessly.
Although she somewhat acknowledged Kiana and was indeed utterly disappointed with Cocoilia.
But she naturally wouldn't reveal it.
Ah, indeed… But I can try to fight for it! To be a logistics staff!
Although it was completely impossible for her to be an ordinary person, Kiana felt she should be able to help speak up for a stable logistics position.
She also respected Bronya's wishes very much.
Then it's decided! I'm leaving first!
After confirming that Bronya had been successfully persuaded and appeased, Kiana planned to leave.
…
Foolish indeed.
Ah, I almost forgot, your Homu.
After stepping out, Kiana remembered the Homu she had held as a hostage, quickly turned around, and handed it to Bronya under Theresa's gaze, which was almost a pie chart of emotions.
She agreed.
Under Theresa's strange pie-chart-like gaze, Kiana changed the subject.
The situation is like this…
She briefly explained Bronya's situation to Mei and Theresa.
That works. This way, she will be monitored on the Hyperion, and even if the chip isn't removed, Cocoilia won't be able to control her.
Theresa was successfully sidetracked.
She nodded, agreeing with Kiana's suggestion.
Then, although it's a bit late to say, next… Welcome to St. Freya Academy!
As Theresa's words fell, the surrounding walls suddenly became transparent.
!
It was clear that they were moving towards an Academy.
Even from the high-altitude perspective, one could clearly see that the Academy was very large.
The surroundings are just projections; they're not transparent, and you won't fall. Don't be nervous.
Seeing Mei and Kiana seemingly scared, Theresa smiled happily, as if her prank had succeeded.
Hmph hmph hmph~! Don't think that taking her Homu means it's all forgotten!
Unfortunately… she couldn't prank the third person who took her Homu, Bronya, because the other party was from Anti-Entropy, and even she knew she had to understand everything before she could trust them.
I am the Headmaster of St. Freya Academy. From now on, you will be studying here, so remember to call me… Headmaster!
With her arms crossed over her chest, Theresa said triumphantly.
Although she had a little help from her grandfather, establishing such a large Academy filled her with satisfaction.
But it was still a pity…
Cecilia couldn't see it.
Theresa became a little melancholic again.
Okay, Aunt, no problem, Aunt.
Ah… Hello, Headmaster.
Even though no one called her 'Headmaster', the melancholic Theresa didn't mind.
"Once you complete your physical examination, you can officially enroll."
After all, they came out of the Honkai, so a physical examination was necessary to ensure there were no issues.
However, it was just a formality. Theresa didn't think there would be any Honkai sickness, especially with one a Herrscher and the other capable of sealing a Herrscher.
"Boss… since I'm cooperating so much, can I get my salary earlier?"
Ai-chan naturally appeared by Theresa's side.
"…"
Theresa finally left.
"Oh, speaking of Mei, they don't seem to have asked about our situation. Do you think… they know?"
Kiana had only recently woken up and had been working overtime to persuade Welt, so she wasn't very clear on the situation yet.
"Kiana… Bronya came to retrieve a Herrscher. They already knew."
Even Mei couldn't help but shake her head.
It wasn't hard for them to figure out Bronya's purpose. Really… she had spent a lot of time outside this morning because of this.
How did she end up being 'conquered' by Kiana? Sure enough…
Because she just liked this kind of Kiana!
"Hey, hey, hey! So, I messed things up for you? Sorry, Mei…"
Theresa and the others didn't even tell her!
Speaking of her headphones… she turned them in yesterday, so it's fine.
Kiana had originally wanted to keep them as a life-saving measure, but it seemed she would only be allowed to use them during missions.
"It's alright, Kiana. Anyway, we were going to tell them, and they don't seem to mind anyway."
With Mei now only showing a faint Honkai reaction, she truly no longer needed to be guarded against; she was as safe as could be.
The seal was very stable, with no signs of losing control.
"Also, I didn't mention your ability, Kiana, because I still think it's better to keep such an ability a secret…"
It was like their little secret, right?
Mei whispered, admitting she had a bit of selfishness; she didn't want Kiana's secret, which only she knew, to be known by others.
Perhaps it would happen later; Kiana's ability and her personality clearly couldn't be held back, but...
For now…
She still wanted to monopolize Kiana.
"Next, let's go see the Academy where we'll be living!"
Next was a very simple, rather perfunctory physical examination. After that, they disembarked from the Hyperion and arrived at the Academy…
Himeko's dorm, cleaning.
"I'm wondering… why do we have to live with Aunt Himeko? There's plenty of space; there can't be no extra dorms."
Kiana couldn't help but ask, sitting on the only clean sofa.
"Because we need to monitor you, and… call me big sister!"
Himeko, busy cleaning, clearly didn't have time to bother Kiana, which was why Kiana felt safe calling her 'auntie.'
"Who monitors so openly… And what's there to monitor with just the two of us? I can just watch Mei!"
She could monitor her 24 hours a day, at every angle, up close and personal!
"Indeed, but because Bronya is also coming, for now, I'm the only one Theresa can use."
Himeko also sighed; someone as ordinary as her actually became Theresa's ace.
"…"
Although she had known for a while, Kiana still felt like she had boarded a pirate ship.
Mainly… the Headmaster of a major Academy only had one person she could use.
"Oh, there's another one who can be used, but she's a student. After she graduates, she'll probably be able to take over my tasks."
Himeko couldn't help but think of Fu Hua.
It had to be said, Fu Hua was truly very reliable, with a sense of reliability that exceeded her age.
"…"
As expected, Himeko was likely referring to Fu Hua, who was currently Otto's major mole.
Mentioning Fu Hua, Kiana thought of that brat, the Herrscher of Sentience, who was a bit of a headache to conquer…
Hmm, she was thinking too far ahead.
She should think about the Herrscher of Wind, Wendy, the most embarrassing Herrscher rumored in the martial world, and also the strongest, whom she needed to conquer next.
