Chapter 42 - Chapter 42: The Car Overturned

Knowing that the most urgent task was to answer the question correctly, Theresa chose to be patient for a moment. Then, she began discussing the content of the question with Kiana and the others.

"For option A, do any of you know her?"

"No."

Kiana, Mei, and Bronya replied in unison.

"...I don't know this person either, so it seems I can only rule her out for now."

Theresa was a little helpless about not having any impression of Avrora.

"Then, option B..."

"For this one?"

"No!"

This time, only Kiana and Bronya's voices were heard. Naturally, they turned around.

"Hey, Mei, do you know her?"

Mei gave no answer and looked thoughtful. Kiana was a little surprised by the curious expressions of the other two.

"...Well, I don't know her personally, so I guess..."

She scratched her chin with her index finger, and Mei's face was full of memories.

"She is a student of Senba Academy like me."

"When I was in school, I met her when I went to the library to borrow books."

"But, generally speaking, it's probably just a one-time encounter, and I know her name."

Subconsciously, she smoothed her drooping hair, and the soft strands brushed against her fingertips.

"That child always gives off a gloomy feeling, and there's something about her that feels... off."

Finally, Mei added a sentence.

"I heard rumors that her interpersonal relationships seem to be really bad."

Theresa was thoughtful after hearing this information. She gave off a gloomy vibe and had bad interpersonal relationships—she was the type prone to psychological disorders.

According to the question, this girl was a pseudo-Herscher. She was probably from Senba Academy.

"Keep option B."

Compared to option A, which provided no clue, option B was clearly the better choice. So, Theresa decisively chose to keep option B. However, she didn't pick it right away and continued to look at the next option.

"Option C, Yae Sakura?"

"This name... the answer to the previous question has appeared." She muttered the name carefully. "The leader of Yae Village..."

After confirming that she had no further impression, she selectively focused her attention on Kiana and the others. "Have you heard of Yae Village?"

"No!"

This time, all three answered together.

"Sure enough..."

Although a little disappointed, Theresa was not surprised. Yae Village, from the name, seemed like a remote village. The world is so vast—unless someone has direct contact with it, how would anyone know about such a village?

Since there was no clue, it seemed that it could only be ruled out.

The only option left was...

[D. Shigure Kira]

Seeing this option, Theresa's previously calm expression suddenly changed. It was an old acquaintance. Back then, she had a good relationship with the other person.

But now... how had she become a pseudo-Herscher with thick eyebrows and big eyes?!

Theresa looked incredulous.

According to the report from Schicksal Headquarters about the Second Eruption, all the members of the Snow Wolf Squad should have been buried in the ice fields with Cecilia.

Theresa had been deeply saddened by this at the time and hadn't drunk her beloved bitter melon juice for several days.

But now...

She's here, and she's become a pseudo-Herscher?!

Give me back my bitter melon juice!

"Aunt, you seem to know this person?"

Looking at the strange expression on Theresa's face, Kiana was full of curiosity.

"Know."

Theresa said two words simply and directly, not planning to say more with a dark expression.

"She has nothing to do with this question."

Theresa was very sure of this.

Although she didn't know how Shigure Kira who had thick eyebrows and big eyes had become a pseudo-Herscher, she was certain that even if she had become one, Shigure Kirara must be in Siberia, a remote place, and had nothing to do with Nagazora City.

"Then, the only answer we can choose is B?"

With A and B unclear and D being ruled out, Bronya tilted her head, and the Roman volume shook.

"Hmm."

Theresa nodded and confirmed the answer.

"Choose B."

[Correct]

As expected, Theresa was right.

The question was now answered.

"Protest! I will never be defeated!"

Theresa could no longer bear it, so she launched a resolute resistance against this evil question.

And the control responded.

A light screen popped up out of thin air.

Then, an image appeared on the light screen.

Theresa, who had been talking to the monitoring department, was sitting in the cabin in the picture. After a moment, she suddenly jumped out of the open cabin door with a cross twice as big as herself.

"Bang."

The already ridiculously heavy Oath of Judah hit the ground and instantly created a big pit, with cracks spreading outward in a spider-web pattern.

Theresa who wore a nun's uniform landed on the cross very easily.

Seeing this scene, Kiana and Mei were stunned, and Bronya, whose face was stiff, also subconsciously opened her mouth.

They looked at Theresa with strange expressions.

No-parachute version of high-altitude skydiving, while carrying a Divine Key that looked to weigh at least a ton...

Is this really not a human-shaped Godzilla?!

"..."

Theresa pouted.

They continued watching the video.

After landing, Theresa communicated with the monitoring department and came directly to the gate of the academy.

This academy was not unfamiliar to Mei; it was Senba Academy.

Carrying the Oath of Judah, Theresa walked into the academy boldly. She didn't worry about any accidents.

Soon, in some part of Senba Academy, Theresa met Yuno, the plant pseudo-Herscher, her target for this trip.

The two sides had a conversation.

Then, the fight started.

Theresa smashed the Oath of Judah on the ground with a backhand, creating a hole. She pulled out a long obsidian spear from the unfolded Judah and stared at Yuno with confidence.

As she had said,

As one of the three S-rank Valkyries in Schicksal, and the holder of the Key of Binding, Oath of Judah, she was a real Honkai killer.

First, Judah's chains would restrain the enemy's Honkai energy and deprive the enemy of freedom.

Then, the sharp obsidian spear would easily break through its defense and nail it to the ground.

Just like this process, Judah, with Theresa's strong body, easily suppressed Yuno, putting her at a disadvantage.

"Hehe, this is me!"

Off-screen, Theresa was very satisfied with her performance and was in a good mood.

What do you mean by overturning?

Isn't this a very smooth fight?

Next, I'll definitely kill the opponent easily and win this time.

It's just a slandering title, pure lie, lie!

The scene continues. Theresa on the screen looks confident, like she was sure of winning.

Then, she suddenly falls.

This sudden change made Theresa who was watching turn pale with disbelief.
