Chapter 31 - I Call It Efficiency

On the quiet, mountainous street deep at night, the two under the streetlamp looked at each other after finishing their bout of gagging.

"Oh my, you turn around first~"

The white-haired girl holding the skirt looked shy.

"Okay."

Fuli didn't waste words, turned around, and went to the flashing vending machine on the roadside.

Seeing this, Kiana breathed a sigh of relief.

She sat on the cold curb in the early spring, and just as she was about to take off those hole-riddled thigh-high stockings, she saw the other party returning.

"You! What are you doing!"

"Got any coins in your pocket?"

"Please, do I look like I have any?" Kiana reached into her pants pocket, her fair little hand poking straight out from the bottom. "Besides, can't you use bills? This Miss wants to drink MAX Coffee!"

Fuli was expressionless. "It already ate one of my Fukuzawa Yukichi (10,000 yen bill)."

"Then use the Tokiwadai Secret Technique: 45-Degree Repair Method to make it spit it out!" Kiana turned and kicked her leg, handsomely teaching him this move. "Go, go, I have to change my skirt in a bit, no peeking!"

"One shouldn't be too confident in oneself."

"Bleh bleh bleh, none of your business!"

Sticking her tongue out at the boy's back, Kiana continued her great undertaking of changing clothes.

After taking off her stockings, just as she was about to take off her shorts, she saw Fuli rushing back again.

"You you you you you!"

The girl was truly red in the face this time, not just from shyness, but also anger.

"There's someone nearby!"

Fuli's tone was very serious. Kiana raised her eyebrows, her body honestly putting the stockings back on despite her words, and then followed his gaze to the night sky.

The stars were brilliant, the moon bright and stars sparse.

There was a red dot; it was a drone.

"Shoot it down?"

The girl got up and came to Fuli's side, whispering in his ear.

"You don't even have a gun, what are you going to shoot it down with?"

"Oh right! Then use that energy flying sword—"

"Trailing Shadow Sword."

"Then use the Trailing Shadow Sword to shoot it down?"

"It's not impossible, the problem is I don't know how much its owner has filmed."

The two had indeed moved after the battle, but they were only seven or eight kilometers away from the previous battlefield.

If the drone owner had filmed the previous battle, God knows what trouble it would cause.

"So that's what you're worried about."

Kiana understood.

"Listening to Miss Kiana's tone, it seems you have a solution for difficult problems?"

"Hehe, call me Qi-tian Dasheng (Great Sage Equal to Heaven / Pun on Kiana)!"

"Great Sage save me!"

"This henpecked ear, you'll definitely be whipped by your wife in the future!"

Kiana took out a pendant from under her collar and handed it over confidently.

"This is?"

Fuli reached out to take it; it still retained the girl's body warmth and a faint fragrance.

"Curio: Shooting Death!" (Pun on "photographer" / "photography makes you pass away")

The white-haired Tuna was triumphant.

Curios, mysterious objects harboring power from the Honkai side.

Unlike items that follow certain physical laws, the effects of curios are always unconstrained and untraceable.

Simply put, items listen to reason; curios do not.

As for their formation principles, one must thank the wonders of nature;

Two, don't ask. If you ask, it's Honkai · Omnipotent.

Fuli was interested. "So what use does this Shooting Death have?"

"After this thing is activated, as long as someone is filming in the dark during a battle, the combatants will involuntarily beat up that third party!"

Kiana tilted her head and thought, deciding it was better to demonstrate directly.

She folded the Four-Dimensional Skirt into the pocket of her intact upper garment, activated Shooting Death, picked up the bat, and lightly tapped Fuli. Then Fuli watched helplessly as the Galactic Baseball Bat abandoned him as the primary target and very purposefully dragged Kiana towards another direction.

"Keep up!"

Kiana turned her head and shouted, quickening her pace with the pull of the bat.

"Roger."

Fuli followed with Void Shunpo, leaving a fleeting green lotus in place.

The drone owner remained ignorant of this, controlling the drone to continuously track these two Honkai superhumans.

Until the two broke into an abandoned house, until a beautiful girl with blonde hair and golden eyes broke into the drone's camera range.

The drone owner blinked, thinking this girl looked a bit familiar.

Until the moonlight in front of her was covered by two figures, one tall and one not short, and looking at the beautiful girl facing them, she suddenly realized.

—Oh! This person is me!

BANG!

Fuli withdrew his fist, his other arm around the girl's waist, slowly laying her flat on the ground.

A move called Avada Kedavra Punch, originating from a martial arts wizard world bubble with a fierce art style, the habitual fist technique of Voldemort, a dominator among dark wizards.

This fist technique has deep potential, but with Fuli's strength, he couldn't unleash the complete form of the technique yet, only achieving an anesthetic (physical) effect.

The effect was outstanding. The little girl didn't even react; her eyes rolled back directly, and she fainted.

Kiana, who came in together, skillfully rummaged through the other's backpack.

She shook it hard three times, and a diary fell out.

"No way! Who keeps a diary these days?" (Meme reference: "Serious people don't write diaries")

Kiana-Kitty-Cat was shocked, and then the notebook was snatched away by Fuli.

"Don't read other people's diaries."

He said seriously, then took out a twenty-centimeter-long silver metal rod with various protrusions and a terrible shape from his bosom.

[Name: Memory Eraser]

[Rank: D]

[Category: Item]

[Effect: Official name Neuralyzer, designed for human memory cells.

Shaped like a silver-white metal rod, with three dials and a small screen on one side for setting the time of memory erasure, capable of setting years, weeks, hours, and minutes respectively.

After setting, the mechanism extending from the top will flash a white light, erasing the memories corresponding to the set time of people who look directly at the white light at close range.

After erasure, there will be a period of blankness in the brain. During this blank period, new memories can be implanted through dialogue to replace the original memories, or simple questions can be asked.

This item only works on humans or life forms with memory cells similar to humans. It will be completely ineffective if the target has an energy cycle in their body.]

[Note: Don't get led astray! Physical amnesia doesn't count as amnesia!]

Fuli briefly introduced the function of the Memory Eraser to Kiana. The girl looked at him like he was a ruthless person. "You are way worse than reading a diary! So telling me not to read it was just because you thought it was a waste of time?"

"I call it efficiency."

Fuli calmly leaned over, pried open the blonde girl's eyelids, and pressed the switch of the Memory Eraser with his other hand.

White light flashed, and the other party soon 'woke up'.

The girl stood straight, standing respectfully in front of Fuli. The only difference from before was that her eyes had lost their highlights.

"Name?"

"Susannah."

"Identity?"

"Schicksal Valkyrie Reserve."

"Purpose of coming to the Far East?"

"To visit the Far East Branch and decide whether to study at St. Freya Academy."

"Then why are you here?"

"The family's jewelry business is saturated, preparing to enter the international construction industry. Yae Village has a favorable geographical location, so I came to inspect it on the way."

"In the middle of the night?"

"Came in the afternoon, but forgot to ask the taxi driver to wait. By the time I realized, it was dark, and I was trapped here unable to go back."

"Pfft hahahahaha! What kind of unlucky airhead is this?"

Kiana, crouching aside, couldn't hold it back.

Fuli glanced at her sideways. "Go change your clothes!"

"That won't do!" Kiana said definitively. "What if you do something to this Susannah when this Miss isn't present? I have to keep an eye on you!"

Susannah had a great figure, slim waist, long legs, curves in all the right places, and most importantly, she was pretty. Now she looked like she had lifeless eyes and was ready to be done with as he pleased; a normal man would really struggle to hold back.
