Before Aili and the others returned to Saint Freya, an aircraft had already arrived at the Academy.
Durandal and Rita stepped out of the aircraft.
Ignoring the envious gazes of the other Valkyries around them, the two walked directly towards Theresa's office.
Knock knock knock.
With the knocking, Theresa's voice came from inside the office, "Who is it? Don't you know this Academy's headmistress is very busy?"
"Theresa, Durandal and I have something to discuss with you," Rita said.
A noisy sound came from inside the office.
Soon, the door in front of them was carefully opened by Theresa.
"Why are you two here?" Theresa said after carefully looking at them both.
"Theresa, aren't you going to invite us in for a sit?" Rita said with a smile.
"Ah, come in, both of you," Theresa said, quickly stepping aside to let them enter.
"Do you two have a mission? Why are you suddenly both here? Did Kiana and the others cause trouble?" As soon as she sat down, Theresa began to guess the reason for their visit to Saint Freya.
"Do Durandal and I only come to see Theresa when there's something wrong?" Rita habitually walked to a cabinet nearby, wanting to take out some tea leaves from it.
"Wait! Rita, that cabinet..." Theresa reached out her hand, but before she could finish speaking, Rita had already pulled the cabinet open.
Looking at the contents of the cabinet, Rita silently closed it, then sighed, and then, from who knows where, took out a tea set and began to brew tea for them.
While brewing tea, Rita also said to Theresa, "Theresa, it's better to keep fewer snacks in the office, after all, if your students see them, your authority will be gone."
"No students will come to find me," Theresa turned her head away.
"Theresa... Aunt, Rita and I are here to find out how you train," Durandal said directly.
"Aunt?" Theresa looked beside her, but there was no one there.
Then Theresa pointed at herself and asked, "The Aunt you called... are you calling me?"
"Yes, Kiana calls you that, so I should call you that too," Durandal nodded.
"Wait, wait, what exactly is going on? I shouldn't have a niece that old. Isn't Kiana the only daughter of Siegfried?" Theresa quickly questioned.
"It seems Siegfried hasn't told you the whole story, Theresa," Rita placed the tea in front of them, then sat beside Durandal.
"Ah? Did Siegfried hide something?" Theresa asked, frowning.
"Did Siegfried have a child outside before he married Cecilia??" Theresa said, clenching her fist.
"No, the next time I see Siegfried! I must ask him personally!" Theresa said, slamming her hand on the table.
"Theresa, is Siegfried really not worthy of your trust?" Listening to Theresa's words, Rita's mouth twitched.
"Hmph, that playboy, who knows if he has a new lover outside," Theresa said directly.
"Aunt, regarding my identity," Durandal directly handed her terminal across the table to Theresa.
"You can check my identity information in the terminal."
"It also contains information about Kiana's identity."
"Please try not to get too emotional while reading."
After Durandal finished speaking, she picked up her teacup and sat there quietly.
However, while drinking tea, Durandal occasionally frowned.
"Durandal, the tea was prepared rather hastily this time," Rita said from the side.
"No, it has nothing to do with the tea; it's just that Stan isn't nearby," Durandal sighed.
"After all, the current Stan cannot be easily brought out from headquarters," Rita comforted her from the side.
Ever since Stan used that gem, his temper had become much more irritable.
However, no matter how much they checked, there were no results.
It could only be said that it was a side effect of the gem.
When Durandal was not around, Stan would always randomly destroy things, full of energy, not at all like a cat.
So, whenever Durandal was not home, she had to keep Stan locked up.
Stan could no longer run around wildly every day as before.
Theresa frowned as she looked at the data on the terminal.
Soon, all the data on it was read.
"Is the information on this true?" Theresa asked seriously.
"Of course, this is information Durandal obtained from the Lord Bishop," Rita nodded.
"So the authenticity of the data is unquestionable; Durandal is indeed your niece."
"But..." Theresa looked at the data, then at Durandal.
"But no matter how I think about it, I find it impossible for hair color to change due to treatment."
"Siegfried and Cecilia both have white hair, but Durandal clearly has blonde hair, and it's not dyed."
The authenticity of the data, coming from Otto, who is her grandfather, must be reliable.
In other words, Durandal is really her niece?
"What about Kiana?" Theresa looked at Durandal with a complex expression.
If the real Kiana is Durandal, then what about the current Kiana?
If she were to tell her now that her niece Kiana was fake, she wouldn't be able to abandon the current Kiana.
"Kiana is my sister," Durandal said.
"Ah?" Theresa's originally complex gaze immediately turned to surprise.
"My father has already acknowledged her, so the name Kiana is hers; I have a new name."
"You really don't mind?"
"Why should I mind? She is Kiana, Kiana Kaslana," Durandal said without a hint of doubt.
"Alright, it seems you had already acknowledged her before you came," Theresa sighed, but in Theresa's heart, she was now very happy.
Although the truth was known, things had not become serious; in fact, they were changing for the better.
"Yes, she is my sister."
"Besides saying this, do you have anything else to say?" Theresa also relaxed at this point.
"I just came to see my sister's living and training environment," Durandal nodded.
"Please, no matter what, she's my niece; I'll definitely take good care of her."
"Theresa, it would be better to say that after you can take care of yourself," Rita sighed.
"I will stay here for a while to help my sister train; she is still too weak," Durandal said, pulling out a transfer order.
It was the transfer order for her and Rita, which Durandal had personally obtained from Otto.
It was not only compensation for the experiment but also a vacation for the two of them.
Recently, there had been very few Honkai events happening in the world.
They generally did not require the presence of the two of them.
