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

"Theresa, the magic trick from last time was only halfway done, and now the second half is already out?" Or, "Theresa, look, you don't need to worry about not inheriting your destiny anymore, the other person is the real professional?"

Well, he actually knew it was just a joke.

Karen herself still favored her granddaughter, whom she had known for many years, and she didn't have much interest in that position, so why torture herself?

Now that the Honkai is finished, he can just continue collecting crystals. Archbishop? For someone with a sense of justice, isn't that just a job?

The Valkyries are all so terrifying, and he's attracted so much hatred...

Fu Hua remained silent, scrutinizing the stargazer for a moment. The other person's posture and temperament were quite similar to those of an ancient Chinese strategist. This was Fu Hua's first thought upon seeing the other person.

"In that case, I'll go with you to the villa to take a look."

Fu Hua nodded, without showing much emotion.

Luo Mo readily agreed. With Fu Hua present, it would be much easier to communicate with the Golden Court.

As I said before, Mama Fu's strength gives people peace of mind!

Fu Hua inexplicably felt a wave of malice wash over her, and it seemed to be coming from nearby? Fu Hua glanced at Luo Mo; although she had no concrete evidence, she was already certain it was him.

I miss the days when I was a detective. Back then, there wasn't so much to do. You could just frame someone and then look for clues later.

...Just kidding, I don't miss it at all. Fu Hua sighed. Cang Xuan Dan Zhu's awakening is only missing the help of a Herrscher of Knowledge, otherwise it will take several years.

Normally, a few years would pass in the blink of an eye, but for immortals with memories spanning thousands of years, it would be even more so.

But when did it start that even a few years felt like too long?

Perhaps it was after meeting Luo Mo that he emptied out the Paradise of the Past in just two months.

Several months later, the game progressed to a point where it didn't exist in reality, and began to truly predict the future.

Even for immortals who have lived for a long time, this is a situation they have never seen before.

Chapter 101 The Silent Battle at the Dining Table 4/5

The group quickly arrived at the villa's gate, only to overhear a few casual conversations coming from inside.

"Oh, Grandma—I would never govern a country with idols, don't think of me like that!"

"The Huang Empire has already lost, so why is everyone rushing to steal Rita? I just don't understand~" That was the voice of the silly goose.

"Lady Durandal~ Just so you know, Rita's in high demand, so cherish her!"

A voice, teasing yet alluring, drifted over; it was a voice that Guan Xing knew all too well.

"Theresa~, when will Lomo and the others arrive? Rita's cooking is really good."

"Almost there, Grandma~ She's on her way~ She also said she wants to add two more pairs of chopsticks. As for the chopsticks, Fu Hua should be coming too, right?"

"Oh? The other one, Li Xue, did your body recover so quickly?"

...

"Rita...?"

The stargazer's eyes were filled with excitement, but they quickly calmed down.

A bitter feeling flashed through her heart; in that world, Rita was the one she worried about most.

"But, not my Rita..."

"It's alright. I have a backup plan. The other party has a long life ahead of them. If nothing goes wrong, we'll meet again someday."

Then, Luo Mo knocked on the door three times to indicate that he had arrived, and then pushed the door open.

Inside, Theresa, Himeko, Kallen, Rita, and Durandal were sitting around a dining table.

The dishes on the table were plentiful, each one a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate, showcasing the chef's excellent skills. The atmosphere at the table was cheerful and lively.

Unsurprisingly, Kallen, seated in the main seat, saw Fu Hua and Guan Xing entering directly.

She glanced at her granddaughter and Yuexia beside her, confirming that she wasn't seeing things. Otherwise, how could another person resembling Theresa suddenly appear?

She tilted her head in confusion, her gaze also fixed on the boy beside her.

"Luo Mo, who is this?"

This person didn't appear in the game this time, and even if they appeared in the same way as Yuexia, I didn't recognize them at all.

At this moment, the others looked over, all somewhat surprised, their gazes shifting back and forth between Theresa, Moonlight, and Stargazer.

For a moment, there was complete silence; the dining table fell into complete stillness.

Admittedly, their temperaments are completely different, which makes them quite easy to distinguish.

But in terms of appearance alone, even Karen couldn't say that there was any obvious difference between them.

"This is the Stargazer, who will appear in the next phase of this event's storyline,"

Luo Mo explained simply, "She arrived here early for some strange reason... Hmm, she's a very nice person?"

"...Isn't that a bit too abstract, Luo Mo—"

Karen shifted her position, resting her elbow on the table and propping her chin up with the back of her right hand, asking with a hint of sarcasm, "Alright, I believe you. The other person should be someone you know well; they're your friend."

"Hehe—Your Excellency, her story will be revealed later,"

"Knife?"

Suddenly, Karen smiled and asked, having learned quite a few new words from the dense barrage of comments.

There was no way around it; there was just too much information about Honkai Impact in this game, and even she couldn't bear to miss a section—what if she missed some crucial information?

But as time went on, she became engrossed in the game's storyline.

No wonder the new generation of Valkyries likes anime and games; from this perspective, they certainly have their charm, Kallen thought.

"This—that makes me a little embarrassed,"

Luo Mo's lips twitched; he hadn't expected Karen to ask him that question so directly.

While others can still engage in unbridled false advertising, Karen is now his boss, or at least a business partner.

"Okay, judging from your expression, I know your answer~"

Karen picked up her glass, took a sip of water, and said this.

"That would be an honor,"

He didn't want to answer directly; neither using a knife nor not using one was a good option.

Knowing someone's psychology in advance can make them want to take precautions—wouldn't that reduce the amount of crystals they have?

"Hmm, from what you're saying, are you implying that my...story isn't very good?"

Guan Xing gently waved his feather fan, a smile on his face, and asked...

Even when she heard that her future seemed bleak, she remained unmoved.

so what?

"However, I think that meeting this guy, Mr. Assassin, has been wonderful enough. As for the future, let's leave it to the future."

"This gentleman, um, Master Stargazer, may I ask a question? What if you were to separate in the future? Or be ostracized by the world? What would you do then?"

Rita's eyes flickered; she felt that the stargazer before her was very different from Lady Theresa, whom she had met.

However, she still liked his appearance very much.

Perhaps I really do have a fondness for young girls like this, but unfortunately, Lady Durandal is growing up too fast, and I haven't been able to fully experience this process yet.

Alas, this is truly one of the greatest regrets of my life.

I can only reminisce by looking at the old recordings of Durandal's growth diary!

"Just live in the moment, and besides,"

Stargazer glanced at Rita. If it were her, she would be willing to answer any question, no matter how many doubts she had. She answered calmly.

"Being hunted down by an entire nation is no big deal. Since the world cannot tolerate me, then I will control all the people in the world."

"...Stargazing is indeed extraordinary. Come and sit down, it's just lunch today, no need to be so tense."

Karen sighed, glancing at the radiant and animated Stargazer, then at Theresa, who was engrossed in drinking bitter melon juice.

As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.

Compared to her stargazing at this moment, Theresa seemed utterly useless; it was truly disheartening.

What should we do? I need help online. Is it possible to change the bishop's position?

Theresa, eyes closed, happily drank the delicious bitter melon juice, completely unaware that her image had already been severely damaged in her grandmother's eyes.

Of course, Karen was only thinking about it.

Then, Theresa finished her drink, her eyes revealing wisdom. She understood this situation; she understood it very well, having already experienced it once before.

"So, will this person also be my sister?"

She asked confidently, her tone full of pride, though she knew absolutely nothing about it, but she figured she was about to have another annoying little sister~

This time, she won't embarrass herself again!

She already had experience guiding her younger sister in life, and had even gone through the knowledge she didn't know before.

"...I'm sorry, Mr. Assassin, I cannot do that. I cannot comply."

Guan Xing stared at Theresa for a long time, but couldn't see any potential in her to be her older sister.

Moreover, the image in her mind gradually overlapped with that of Theresa from her own world; the other woman looked almost identical. The more she thought about it, the worse it got, and the more humiliating it became.

Why did she suddenly become the other person's sister?

She won't agree to that!

In this kind of situation... she has to think twice before the other person asks to become her sister.

Is she declaring her status as the empress? But that doesn't make sense... She had already subtly inquired about it on the way, and the only person she had close contact with was Yuexia, who was standing next to her.

Even if they secretly touched each other under the moon without the other person's knowledge, she shouldn't be the main wife.

Without making a public announcement, how is this any different from a cat stealing fish?

She was a little confused, not understanding the other person's trick. Was the other person... taunting her?
