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

But the difficulty is just finding people, which is something she excels at. What's so difficult about that!

"What do you want in return?"

"Hehe, it's simple... I want to be friends with Mei-nee."

Pado scratched her head, stretched lazily, and said with a somewhat innocent smile,

"It's a bit embarrassing to admit, but things have been a bit chaotic in Paradise lately, and it's dangerous to run around. And of all times, I lost the can of food."

"Whether you find one or two, it's all the same. I'll guide you, and you keep me safe. How about it, Mei-nee?"

With those bright, sparkling eyes, she extended an invitation, and Mei couldn't bear to refuse.

..

"Um... Mei-nee, are you allergic to cat fur?"

"no, what happened?"

"Oh, that's good. It's just that my tail has started shedding again recently."

During a lull in the battle, Pado asked Mei with concern, then relaxed.

...

"They look so innocent and harmless, unlike Alicia and Mebius, who both want to harm Mei—"

Kiana nodded in agreement.

She had met this companion before and approved of him completely. He was a good partner for sunbathing with her and had no ill intentions towards Mei.

This is a true hero.

"Uh—I don't think Alicia intended to harm me..."

Mei patted Kiana's head and said helplessly.

Kiana seems to be keeping a closer eye on me, I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing, Kiana's nervous look... I really enjoy watching her.

All I can say is that she's been much more obedient lately, and she's also become more clingy.

"Yes, yes, Mei, you can't judge a book by its cover. She, she, she might be the final boss. People online say that pink is black inside, maybe she is."

Kiana retorted stubbornly, her lips curling into a wide, almost arrogant smile.

His eyes flickered, as if trying to make her words more convincing.

"...Kiana has been quite free lately, so focus on your training."

"Kiana, how about a match with Bronya? Let's see how much you've improved since the mission started."

Bronya waved her hand, extending an invitation; she was also curious about her own progress.

"Hey, hey, hey—didn't you just get that external object? That's cheating, right? But since you brought it up, I don't mind seeing how well you've learned it."

"The undefeated legend, Bronya, it even rhymes."

Kiana smiled and patted the other person on the shoulder.

"In the game, with Bronya herself... that doesn't count! But it's good that you agreed. Then let's give it a try."

Bronya's cheeks flushed slightly, from anger; the other person was just as good at making her angry.

Soon, she'll show her that Bronya isn't someone to be trifled with!

"But... I'm a little envious of her ears~ Are all fusion warriors like that? They don't look like hair accessories, so cute~"

Kiana said with some envy, she really wanted to have cat ears as an accessory, but unfortunately, most of them didn't look natural when worn and had a sense of incongruity.

This might be part of the reason why I have a good impression of Pado.

...

In the Golden Courtyard

“Alicia’s mouth is really unreliable. How many people did you say those words to? How come there’s a version of it here with Pado?”

Mebius said with some disdain, "Let's not even talk about it with a megaphone... how come Pado knows about it now too?"

That person is really something!

"I already said it wasn't me. How could I do such a thing to my dear Möbius?"

She vehemently argued that Möbius had misunderstood her, and that she always kept her mouth shut... However, that matter was rather interesting, and obviously, it couldn't be admitted, at least not now!

"You like horns?"

"Nothing!"

Alicia said firmly, "It's completely unfounded and absolutely impossible!"

"..."

Kosmo opened his mouth as if he had something to say, but in the end he swallowed it back.

"Kosmo... what's wrong? Is your mouth uncomfortable?"

Gretchen raised her head, tilted it, and asked.

"...(If I tell her, Alicia will touch my horn again. She's almost forgotten about it, and she doesn't seem to want anyone to know. Let's just forget about it.)"

"Mei-nee isn't allergic to cat fur, that's great! But, after coming here so many times, it's obvious that no one else is allergic. Wait, wait, I don't shed fur anymore!"

Pado smiled, pondering to herself.

At least we didn't lose this customer. Thinking about it, we need to be careful when purchasing goods. Very good, I'll write this down.

...

Having overcome numerous obstacles and crossed several doors, Mei continued to approach deeper into the area, following the path pointed out by Pado.

"I can feel it... the canned food is right there!"

Paddo's eyes lit up as she looked behind a door. She had a unique way of communicating with the canned food; her instinctive connection allowed her to almost instantly locate it.

Now, she could clearly sense that the other person was behind the door.

Absolutely correct!

"it is good…!"

Mei nodded slightly, raised her sword, and leaped off the dragon's back. Lightning surged, accompanied by a hissing sound in the air.

One cut, two cuts!

Slay all the monsters in front of you and clear the area.

Then, after stepping through the door with Paddo, she indeed saw a raven and a fat, orange-yellow cat.

The other person was following the cat, running around aimlessly.

"Do you even know the way? I feel like we've already been here before... Okay, okay, stop it, it makes it sound like I'm bullying you,"

"No, let's look for it slowly..."

"……Meow!"

The raven was in a real bind. Her guide was unexpectedly unreliable; he'd brought her here, but now she couldn't find her way back.

But... what's with that completely dark place in front of us?

She was thinking when she turned her head and her pupils widened in surprise. "Ya...Ya? What are you doing here?"

"I was about to ask you that, senior. You've been missing for so long, and all you did was... tease the cat?"

Mei was both annoyed and amused, and she even emphasized the pronunciation of the words "senpai" (senior).

Seeing the other person's somewhat disheveled figure, why was he staying here to tease the cat?

"Please spare me, teasing the cat? You're more likely to be teased by the cat. If it weren't for it, why would I be stuck here unable to leave?"

Raven smiled wryly, but... in any case, we should be able to get out now.

Well, I hope I never see that cat again, and at least I never trust its every move again.

"Canned food, okay, stop licking... Oh dear, is this the friend Mei-nee is looking for?"

"I never expected to be with canned food like this; it's truly killing two birds with one stone. No, it's fate, fate's arrangement!"

Nearby, Guantou had already leaped into Pado's arms, clearly showing how familiar the two were.

She greeted the raven warmly, after all, they were friends...

Haha, it wouldn't be bad to patronize the business more often when you have time.

"You are... the owner of Paradise Shop?"

Raven narrowed his eyes slightly. He was familiar with the name Phyllis; after all, it was inevitable that everyone would encounter it.

"Yes, the last of the thirteen, the weakest in both status and strength, is none other than Padofilis of the Empty Dream—the real deal!"

Not caring much about her lack of skill, Pado readily admitted it.

She didn't want to be tested by visitors; what if... someone with Jie's personality got into a fight? That would be so unfair.

It's not surprising that she's not good at fighting.

These words left the raven speechless.

Regardless, the other party is Ying Jie, and she, a mere World Serpent cadre, cannot be allowed to slander him.

Then, she also demonstrated her strength as a hero... She swiftly led the two back to the main body of Paradise from the side path, a stark contrast to a certain Boom Crow who got lost.

...

in the villa,

"Last seat? The opponent's strength... uh, it seems I haven't fought with them before, but they seem very agile, it's hard to even touch the hem of their clothes."

Kiana blinked, but didn't have any other opinion about the last place. After all, even the dangerous Mebius and her own class monitor didn't have high positions. This ranking could tell you something, but it didn't represent everything.

"As for Pado... what she's better at is probably... good luck."

Fu Hua hesitated for a moment before speaking.

She glanced at Kiana and, to be honest, felt that Kiana's luck was also very strong, even stronger than her own.

Sigh, it's a pity that Shi Bao seems to have inherited this trait... Wait, isn't "inherited" a bit awkward?
