To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

But if she is seriously injured, she will hide in a corner and lick her wounds alone, not wanting her friends to worry or be afraid for her.

Seeing this, Alicia's already bad mood worsened.

She was still feeling sorry for Kiana in the movie, and then in reality, Kiana and Mei were all lovey-dovey. The most important thing is that she hadn't even had a chance to join in!

“Rita, it seems your training needs to be intensified,” Durandal said quietly, glancing at the maid beside her.

Rita showed a clear problem in this battle—she wasn't strong enough.

They need to improve their combat skills and physical fitness as soon as possible.

Rita thought about it and didn't object. If it were Lady Durandal, then there would indeed be no problem.

She chuckled softly, "If Lady Durandal were willing to personally teach Rita..."

“Of course I will personally supervise you, my adjutant,” Durandal said calmly, glancing at Rita.

"Hehe, then I'll await your guidance."

"To be honest, my two daughters are a bit of a worry,"

Cecilia looked at Durandal and Kiana, and said helplessly, "Luckily, I still have Sirin..."

Turning my head, I saw that Xilin was already half-lying in the corner, leaning against the air, popping popcorn into her mouth one by one from who-knows-where.

His nonchalant attitude is certainly cool, but is this how you're supposed to use your Herrscher powers?

Noticing her mother's gaze, a piece of popcorn caught in her throat, and she coughed violently, taking a while to catch her breath.

Then, ignoring the strange looks from others, she hurriedly defended herself:

"Mom, that's not it, I just wanted to..."

“Shut up, Sirin, I’m not your mother,” Cecilia said quietly, her eyes unconsciously glancing elsewhere.

She felt a little ashamed.

"No, no, Mom, I just want to use my powers more in life and train myself more, just like Luo Mo said."

With a flick of her wrist, Sirin tossed a box of popcorn into the imaginary space of the black hole, where it vanished without a trace.

Then, she rushed over to Cecilia, hugged her arm, and said in a coquettish tone, "Look, I haven't leaked any Honkai energy lately. It's really just to train myself!"

He then demonstrated, and a bag of potato chips fell out of the hole.

Somewhat embarrassed, Celine bent down and threw it back, clearly not as proficient as she had claimed.

Then piles of snacks poured down, almost covering her completely. Celine was buried in them, with only her head sticking out.

Clearly, she had hidden a bit too many snacks...

Finally, the popcorn from the beginning fell down and hit her right on the head.

It didn't hurt, but it was very humiliating.

There were tears welling up in Xilin's eyes. It was working perfectly fine at home, but it went wrong so badly next to her mother.

She couldn't quite accept it.

Qianjie silently turned his gaze away. He felt that the Herrscher of the Void did not seem to pose any threat, at least not in reality.

Chapter 44 Mei... I can't go back

Luo Mo said he wouldn't take the blame, that his suggestion was fine, and that the problem was that Xilin was too incompetent!

Everyone found it amusing that Sirin was buried in a pile of snacks; now, even her golden, imposing eyes could no longer instill fear in others.

Xilin climbed out of the pile of snacks, and with a flick of her hand, the snacks and a whole bunch of sugary drinks disappeared into the space.

But the previous scene raises a question—if there were another final lesson, would the entire space inside be filled with Celine's treasured snacks?

If Himeko unleashes the Godfall Greatsword, will the opponent start crying after burning Sirin's snacks?

This is an interesting topic, and Luo Mo said he was very interested.

“Sirin…” Cecilia’s eyes were filled with complicated emotions. Her daughter’s Herrscher powers were being used like this? Instant noodles, potato chips, cola…?

It's great that she's not used to kill humans... but isn't it a bit much to use her for this purpose?

“I’m here!” Cecilia looked at Cecilia pitifully, refusing to let go of her arm.

"..." Cecilia looked at her for a while and asked, "Where did you get all those things? Didn't you spend all your money on in-game purchases?"

She didn't mean to be harsh, but where did Celine get the money? Did she just steal it?

Xilin pointed at Luo Mo.

Cecilia raised an eyebrow, somewhat curious. Could Luo Mo have tricked her silly daughter with something?

"Mr. Luo, did you buy this for Xilin?"

Luo Mo looked completely innocent. After a brief moment of thought, he remembered.

After learning that Kiana was paid for voice acting at the company, Sirin approached him, saying that lawyers also have human rights and need to comply with labor laws and be paid.

Seeing the outstretched little hand and Xilin's indignant expression as she defended her rights, Luo Mo decisively gave her the cash he had on him.

Seeing that Xilin kept repeating the same sentence over and over, Luo Mo was worried that she would resort to violence if she couldn't win the argument, so he decided to just give her cash. Actually... Xilin had also received a salary last time, but it was deposited into Cecilia's account.

"No, Mom, I did work, and you get paid for working! Isn't that common sense?" Celine said proudly.

Cecilia gave Sirin a strange look and nodded.

"I will work hard from now on!" Celine clenched her fist, her eyes filled with seriousness.

She can buy so much delicious food just by dubbing a few lines! She's so willing to do it.

Bella uses her money to buy in-game items, uses her own money to pay for her own food and drink, and lives in her mother's house—perfect, a well-thought-out plan!

The working queen is also very cute!

...

Underground, Mei and Kiana embraced tightly.

In the past, Kiana would always rush into Mei's arms, but this time, it was Mei who held Kiana tightly, afraid that the girl in front of her would suddenly disappear again and never be found again.

Kiana looked away; she had thought she was already very strong.

But upon seeing Mei, she instantly transformed back into the bewildered, homeless girl in Sky City, unconsciously wanting to rely on her and get closer.

But no, that won't work.

She still had to do dangerous things, and she didn't want to drag her friend into it anymore.

One thing the experimenter was right about: she had done a lot of things that hurt her partners, and she couldn't continue down that path.

Mei recounts the hardships and difficulties of searching for Kiana, and reassures Kiana that she and everyone else are waiting for her, and that no matter what difficulties they face, they can overcome them together.

But Kiana simply said, "I'm sorry... I can't go back."

Can she continue to laugh and joke without restraint and stand in front of them as if nothing happened?

"I'm sorry... I can't let you take that risk."

Mei looked at Kiana and felt for the first time that the girl in her arms was so unfamiliar.

Kiana looked away, remaining silent.

...

"Wow, this is amazing! Although the scene looks a bit sad, the concern between the two sides is still very obvious."

Paddy clapped as she watched this scene, then turned back to look at the calm scene and tilted her head, "...right?"

Mei sighed and stood silently to the side, glancing at the pitiful Kiana. Kiana clung to Mei like a little animal, rubbing against her.

One glance is enough to tell it was a scene of domestic violence.

Luo Mo watched the scene with great interest. If Xilin hadn't been there, he would have even gone to get her some popcorn.

"Kiana... rely on us sometimes," Mei relented, saying with a helpless yet indulgent tone.

"It's just a game, a game! I would never do that! Mei, you have to believe me."

Seeing that Mei had finally relented, Kiana beamed with joy.

She no longer cared about making it obvious; comforting Mei was more important now.

The other day, her mother kept subtly hinting at Mei's situation, and seeing this, Kiana finally told her the truth.

After all, Mom, you don't want me to bring home any random men, do you? Especially not the kind who rides a motorcycle with a stunt like a ghost, right?

Sirin didn't sleep well that night; screams kept coming from downstairs. Kiana was in a lot of pain, while Cecilia gradually adapted to the partial power restored by the Stigmata.

For the next few days, Kiana avoided Cecilia, rubbing her bottom from time to time, her eyes full of grievance.

However, she hasn't told Mei yet.

Judging from the video, hehe, Mei obviously likes herself too, right?

Kiana completely forgot that she had just explained to Mei that the game didn't count. This shows that people always try their best to acknowledge the advantages, while discarding the disadvantages like trash.

What about things that have both good and bad aspects? Just accept half of them!

“I believe you… fine,” Mei said nonchalantly, glancing sideways at Kiana, who was struggling below, and threatened, “If you continue like this, I’ll leave you for a while and let you know what it feels like.”

"Um...no, Mei, I won't do that..." Kiana initially pleaded, but seeing Mei's still indifferent expression...

She decided to be firm. She didn't believe Mei would run away anywhere, and said with a grin, "Besides, I'm the young lady of Destiny. Where can you run off to?"

After saying that, he hugged Mei, indicating that she couldn't escape his grasp.

"Hmph, I'll just go... to the World Serpent inside. What, can destiny affect the World Serpent?"

Seeing that Kiana didn't believe she could run away, Mei decided to use words to intimidate her.

Perfect timing! The World Serpent has appeared in the game, hasn't it? Although Anti-Entropy seems a bit weak, the World Serpent has always been going against Destiny.

"The Lady of Destiny?" Mei looked at Kiana, who was stammering and unable to speak, and found it amusing.

Of course, she was just saying that.

She didn't want to leave everyone and join an organization that seemed so evil.

"If it's the World Serpent, I believe they would be very welcoming of you," Kevin nodded and said calmly.
