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

[This opening must contain a hidden mystery, because (I'm certain)]

[It's just the beginning of a fun game, what's the mystery? Could there be a knife involved?]

"Honestly, do you still have knives this time, boss?"

"Facts speak louder than words. We've been in two different worlds in the game, Kiana, how can you still not believe me?"

Luo Mo sat on the sofa and sighed deeply, closing his eyes and looking very comfortable.

He said in an inexplicably low voice,

"Kid, I'm very disappointed in you."

"...?" Kiana looked completely bewildered, her eyes filled with confusion.

What is this lousy boss saying?

"Boss, as you may be disappointed, have you misunderstood something? Or perhaps you should look at what you're saying?"

She crossed her arms and glanced sideways at Luo Mo, who was half-lying down beside her. Why did she feel inexplicably a generation younger?

Is the other person going to become her aunt's husband?

That can't be right, I've never heard of such a thing before.

"There must be trust between people. Even if you are an employee I promoted myself, you should be treated equally..."

Luo Mo spoke slowly and deliberately.

He opened his eyes, and his clear gaze only strengthened the belief that he was a good person. "Kiana, I hope you will succeed!"

"Thanks, but something still feels off,"

Kiana glanced at Luo Mo, but didn't find anything wrong with what he said, and finally muttered something.

"Idiot Kiana... got tricked by that bad boss again~"

"Hehe—that also shows they have a good relationship. Bronya, what would you like to eat for lunch?"

...

The objective is revealed right from the start: there's an underwater ruin between the three countries, containing a deity whose wishes can be made.

Gemini plans to fulfill their wish to return home by making a wish, but the three of them alone are definitely not enough.

So they thought of the country they were in now—the Knight Empire, the Kingdom of Hekhzal, which possessed the strongest military power.

And the way to participate is... the Hero Recruitment Fair?

...

"Why is the hero even hiring? What kind of nonsensical plot twist is this?"

Theresa paused for a moment, then gave a sarcastic comment.

...

Even after arriving at the job fair, there were still plenty of things to complain about.

The scene was pitch black, almost impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face; this was hardly how the atmosphere should have been created.

"My lord angel, please send some holy light," said the man who called himself the King of Heroes.

"Hey! How long has it been since you paid your electricity bill? My holy light isn't meant for you to use as a light bulb..." the person called an angel complained.

"My angel, holy light."

His voice turned cold, carrying a barely perceptible threat.

"Yes, Lord Hero King."

Angel cowered instantly, perhaps intimidated by the sudden, forceful craniotomy; she cowered very quickly.

After turning on the lights, a classic scene, modeled after a certain work, came into view.

The King of Heroes placed his hands on the table, resting his chin on them, his expression majestic.

The angels behind him stood upright, like faithful guardians.

...

"Pfft, Fu Hua, the class monitor? She can act like this too?"

Kiana's eyes widened, and she instinctively tried to stand up.

Fu Hua's behavior is becoming increasingly outrageous, leaving people dizzy and momentarily speechless, yet possessing a breathtaking beauty.

Although she found her own attire strange, could it be because the White Knight? Moonlight's armor had wings on the back, thus earning her the title of angel?

Isn't this a bit too ridiculous?

"Nonsense! This is the esteemed hero, Lord Wang!"

Luo Mo frowned and reprimanded him.

He had absolutely no intention of disrespecting the Crimson Kite Immortal, especially in this world.

Especially after discovering that his remarks had been inexplicably exposed online, and that there was clearly a mole within the company, he needed to be even more careful with his words and actions.

"Come on, it's just the few of us, no problem... Who told you to call Big Sister 'Silly Goose' last time? A lot of Valkyries have come to settle the score with you, haven't they? Hehe~~"

Kiana quickly realized that the other party was probably afraid of the previous incident, and she raised her chin and said...

"Besides, I'm an angel! What's wrong with saying something to her?"

"Look closely, is it really an angel protecting the Hero King inside? Clearly, the angel is the one who listens to the other side, isn't he?"

[What a weak angel! I feel so sorry for the little bug. She was scolded by the King of Heroes and made to do 400 extra push-ups, all under the guise of "it's for your own good."]

[A pathetic angel using wings as a light source. Seriously, is the Empire running out of electricity? The crime scene next door, plus the ship, never had any lighting problems.]

[As expected of a bug, the first thing she thought of after becoming an angel was that she could eat potato chips every day without gaining weight and stay up all night without getting sick... Ugh, why am I suddenly a little envious?]

However... I'm still curious about what the angel meant by "unlucky king".

...

"master?"

Li Xue glanced at the image on the screen, then at Fu Hua, whose fists were clenched tightly by the bedside, and gently pushed up her glasses with her other hand.

"No problem~"

"Master looks great with a different makeup look,"

Ritsuki tried to encourage her, saying, "It's very... oppressive, extremely powerful, and even the armor fits you perfectly."

Fu Hua paused, adjusting her glasses, and pursed her lips.

"Maybe... I should go to the company. I suddenly remembered that I haven't had time to finish some tasks."

"Hehe-- Master, no, it's alright,"

Li Xue felt a little embarrassed, realizing she had said the wrong thing, and tried to make amends, "Stay with me a little longer, there are still many things I don't quite understand."

"That's fine too."

Fu Hua's voice was calm and indifferent.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, but it was unclear who he was targeting.

...

The trial for the captain, the brave warrior, was none other than pulling out the legendary sword from the stone.

When the King of Heroes brought up his past, he seemed to feel a slight embarrassment.

She recounted how she traversed countless mountains and rivers, enduring spring, summer, autumn, and winter, to reach the secret realm and retrieve the sword from the stone in order to obtain the sacred texts of the kingdom.

The moment the sword was drawn, a shooting star fell from the sky.

—That is an angel!

"So you've already defeated the Demon King? My mission is complete?"

The bewildered angel was somewhat confused; she couldn't understand why the hero had defeated the Demon King without her help.

What is it used for?

"Hmm... I saw the Demon King's castle when I passed by, and I casually... exchanged a few blows with her."

She pushed up her glasses and continued speaking.

"Uh, okay,"

The angel was a little embarrassed, but she perked up, straightened her back, and tried to emphasize her role, "But I can also add a powerful blessing of good fortune to you!"

"And then?" the captain asked.

"Then I put the sword in the stone back, thinking that with the angels around, I didn't need the sword as proof."

"The King of Heroes replied."

...

"It feels really strange, doesn't it?"

Kiana unconsciously poked her cheek with her finger.

It's normal that Fu Hua was powerful enough to defeat the Demon King;

She has wings and is very lucky, which can enhance her luck, and this is quite true;

Fu Hua made her do push-ups without warning, which was incredibly apt.

"But I still feel strange, as if, it seems, I've heard this story somewhere before?"

"Kiana~, you really need to study history properly. The Sword in the Stone... that's the story of King Arthur." Mei sighed and rubbed her forehead.

For Kiana, the only thing that might remain unchanged is her performance.

Last time, it was said that she and her sister, Celine, tied for first place in the whole school because, for some reason, the test paper had an unusually small number of multiple-choice questions.

Kiana and Sirin happened to be in the same exam room, so after Kiana became certain she wouldn't know the answer to one question, she kept her eyes fixed on Sirin.

—If she doesn't know how, she can't cheat!

Sirin gritted her teeth and stared at her, their gazes almost igniting sparks. Sirin's original method of cheating with her spatial abilities was thus rendered useless.
