Since Theresa didn't know about her father or her experiences, Kiana chose to exaggerate and tell all the sufferings and hardships she had endured during this period.
Coupled with her aggrieved look and cute appearance, Theresa was immediately confused!
Kiana really didn't expect that she actually had relatives in St. Freya College.
Wouldn't she be considered a second-generation official?
"Before I find Siegfried, I want you to stay in school and focus on your studies. There's a practical test coming up. I'll let you take it in a few days, and then you'll submit the test paper to make up for it, so I can see your ability!" Theresa thought about it but couldn't figure out why Kiana came to this school.
It seems that all of this is part of the other party's plan?
Forget it, let's focus on the child's grades.
Although I don't know exactly what happened in Nagazora, one thing is certain: the Herrscher was indeed born and even caused the Eruption!
But it was also stopped.
Of course, it's not that preventing the Eruption from causing harm is a bad thing, but Theresa really can't think of what kind of magical means could be used to prevent the harm caused by the Eruption due to a Herrscher.
Theresa has lived for so long and has never seen such technology.
If it had been developed long ago, wouldn't the future Honkai have been easily solved?
So Theresa urgently needs to learn the full picture of the matter from the three people.
Being stared at by Theresa, Mei felt uncomfortable all over.
"Raiden Mei, right? Why do you want to join St. Freya Academy? You know, Senba Academy is still there. Although we issued the invitation first, you have no reason to leave Nagazora."
The eldest lady of the ME Society, with the old enemy of Schicksal, the Anti-Entropy Organization, behind her, is very suspicious. Theresa needs to be very alert when facing the girl in front of her.
"That..."
Mei was a little entangled, so she looked at Kiana and Bronya.
Bronya gave a positive look, and Kiana hesitated slightly but finally nodded.
She could feel that Theresa really cared about her eyes and attitude.
The same white hair, the same blue eyes—Kiana was the first one who didn't believe there was no blood relation.
So, just give trust!
"In fact, I am the Third Herrscher who caused the Honkai of Nagazora... I hope that I can be monitored at any time through St. Freya Academy and Schicksal to prevent similar tragedies from happening again..."
Although the Schicksal headquarters did send a message confirming that Mei is indeed the third Herrscher and has the power to control lightning, Theresa did not expect Mei to confess so frankly!
She thought there would be a wave of intrigue, a test of each other, and then she would be furious and suppress the Herrscher!
"In fact, it can be seen from history that the First Herrscher stood on the side of humans. Although the Second Herrscher hated humans, he still had the same self-awareness. Therefore, Bronya judged that the rational Herrscher should not be arbitrarily attacked. Although the power was too dangerous, if it were used to fight against the Honkai, it would definitely reduce the damage to the Valkyrie on the battlefield!"
"Bronya..."
Seeing Bronya stand up and speak for her, Mei felt she wasn't brave enough to move. She had only known each other for a short time, but she put such trust in her hands.
"Bronya... right? And Kiana said before that your sister is Bronie?"
"Eh? What's wrong?"
"It seems... is the rumor true? The real name of the internet celebrity, the legendary electronic artist Haxxor Bunny, is Bronie, and you are her... sister?"
Bronya immediately straightened her chest and looked very proud.
"That's right!"
"Come on, help me get an autograph from your sister..."
Then a hand-knife fell on Theresa's head.
"Principal Theresa, now is the time to talk about business. Please don't do something irrelevant."
"Okay, then Raiden Mei, do you know what it means for you to say this?"
The majesty of the adults is revealed here. After all, Theresa has lived for so long, and you can feel the presence of an elder from her temperament.
After hearing Theresa's question, Mei took a deep breath and said, "I know! But I am willing to believe, believe in Kiana, who is willing to believe in the academy president. Whether it's surveillance or training, I hope that one day my ability will be useful in the battlefield against Honkai."
What a good child.
She's brave enough to face these things.
Perhaps there were not many casualties in Nagazora, so Mei does not hate that power. It is precisely because the disaster was prevented in advance that Mei is more willing to believe that
Bronie can also prevent it in advance, and she can understand that power more at ease.
"It seems that I have to give you another assignment: write a report on everything you have experienced in Nagazora—what you have encountered, seen, and faced. I don't know why other residents of Nagazora are saying that Nagazora just experienced a very long typhoon. You must have seen a different picture, right?"
"Bronya will write the report."
Although she didn't know why Theresa didn't know about the cooperative relationship between Sister Bronie and Otto, Bronya didn't intend to pursue it.
Maybe the person named Apocalypse is not really related to Otto?
After all, Otto is also an old man who has lived for 500 years. If someone casually claims to be his relative, he will definitely be unhappy.
"Then Major Muruta Himeko will take you to the dormitory. And Bronya, don't forget, I want an autograph..."
"Sister Bronie has never signed anything like this before... But if Bronya wants it, it should be no problem."
"By the way! Bronya!"
Theresa suddenly called Bronya again.
"Excuse me, is there anything else?"
"Is your Sister Bronie... a member of Schicksal?"
She noticed that Bronie knew about the Honkai.
"Sister Bronie has technical cooperation with Archbishop Otto Apocalypse of Schicksal and has a very deep cooperation in the field of scientific research."
"Scientific research!?"
I didn't know about this!
Theresa suddenly felt as if she had been excluded by the people at the Schicksal headquarters.
...No, it should be said that she had actively excluded the Schicksal headquarters, and as a result, lost access to the information, which was, in a way, very normal.
If Bronya hadn't mentioned it, she might never have known about it!
"So, you entered St. Freya Academy..."
"It was for two careless idiots. Emotional ties are the key to awakening the humanity of the Herrscher. They also need to be supplemented with drug treatment. Sister Bronie is always worried about them, so she asked Bronya to take care of them."
"Then, if someone is deeply infected with Honkai energy and is at risk of becoming a dead soldier at any time..." Himeko suddenly interrupted the conversation, seemingly noticing that Bronie was ahead of Schicksal in scientific research. She wanted to ask.
"If they have already turned into dead soldiers, it's irreversible. However, if they are deeply infected, they can be treated, but at a cost. Compared to post-infection treatment, Sister Bronie advocates isolating the Honkai energy before infection."
"If it can be isolated, why does Schicksal sacrifice so many people? So the price is..."
"One thousand corpses infected with Honkai energy, or more patients deeply infected with it. Schicksal has such technology but has never made it public. However, Otto and Sister Bronie are working on making medicines with lower costs."
It can't be announced?
Himeko quickly figured it out.
If a thousand people must be sacrificed for one person's survival, the price is indeed outrageously high.
"I see. The technology isn't mature enough... Sure enough, the power of the stigmata is still needed to suppress the infection of Honkai..."
"Although it's almost like that, don't lose hope. Bronya's sister Bronie once said that once you give up, you lose everything. As long as you persist, there's hope."
"I was comforted by a little kid. I'm really more curious about what kind of person Bronie is. She's so good at making games and is also a world leader in scientific research. But I didn't even know someone like that existed!"
Bronie came to this world from the Sea of Quanta in 2008. She must know nothing about it.
"You'll naturally come into contact with her in the future. Sister Bronie is very powerful. Maybe Honkai can really be ended in her hands." Bronya proudly gave her evaluation of Bronie, almost showing off.
"Such a powerful person... No wonder she can create these works..."
It must be said that Theresa could feel that Bronya had been well-educated when she first saw her.
Of course, even Kiana's occasional cleverness was evident.
Bronie really loved them and did an impeccable job in educating them.
Confidence and faith shone in Bronya's eyes. Of course, she still might have a little confusion, but compared to most children at St. Freya Academy, she was already far ahead.
Although Bronya didn't look that old.
"Of course, Sister Bronie is the best! Even the Project Bunny was made by Sister Bronie!"
...
"Ah chuu – I really don't know how Kiana is doing..."
Staying in her office, Bronie conducted the final game test.
Senti had been exposed to the game for a while, but because the online mode wasn't open yet, he could only reluctantly play the story mode.
After playing through the prologue, Bronie suddenly took action.
"If you care, just go find her! Oh, I almost forgot, you have a mortal body, unlike me, who can come and go freely and do whatever I want!"
"Yes, yes, I know you're special. Maybe one day I'll feel a little tired of this life form, and I'll consider changing it. I can't just throw away my God-given body~"
Then Senti felt like Bronie was showing off her figure.
She had to say, she really had to say it.
Awesome!
Is it from long-term massage?
Or the result of frequent moisturizing?
Or has Bronie modified it herself a long time ago?
Seeing that her curiosity was piqued, Senti seriously doubted that Bronie could have grown to this point without using every possible means!
"So now you keep telling me that you miss Bronya?"
"St. Freya Academy is a closed school. It is rarely open to the public. And because it needs to conceal the existence of Honkai, St. Freya Academy will never let outsiders enter the school!"
"Are you the kind of person who follows the rules? I thought people like you wouldn't be bound by those rules. After all, if you set so many rules for yourself all day, life will become boring."
"First of all, I don't think it's boring. Secondly, humans are social animals. Overly outstanding performance can easily cause panic, which is not in line with my own goals.
....Finally, those rules can't stop me."
Speaking, Bronie took out a card pack from the drawer. The cards were stacked densely together. Bronie took out a pure white card with gold inlay from it.
"I prepared this several years ago, but I haven't used it. Since St. Freya Academy is supposed to be closed-off, it naturally needs a commercial street inside."
"So, you bought all the shops inside?"
"In your mind, I'm that kind of rich woman? I just asked Otto to open a backdoor for me and leave a shop for me. I didn't spend any money. Everything was taken by chance."
"Of course, it's like Eden... But it's true that you can't be as rich as giving away gems casually..."
But I will be soon.
That's right, Bronie made the game at almost zero cost. If she is willing to reveal her identity, gems and other things will naturally be sent to her.
But Bronie doesn't like dealing with politicians.
"But then again, you left a store for a while. How long ago was that?"
"How long? Let me think... During the Spring Festival of 2009? It was around that time. Schicksal Entertainment was holding its annual meeting. I mentioned it to Otto. Later, after the Aeon Island incident, Otto took care of it for me."
"Are you really not a prophet? Like Aponia, who makes mysterious but accurate predictions?"
"Please, if a person's life is bound by an illusory fate, that's too lame. Fate is created by one's own hands. I just happen to know what I should know! It's not based on prophecies or anything like that!"
