I'm in Teyvat, join the chat group.

Kiana still had some doubts.

"Let's wait until Theresa comes back before we talk about it."

Li Xiao did not answer her, but instead gestured for the others to sit down and wait for Theresa to return.

Kiana didn't stand on ceremony and immediately sat down, picked up the tea Li Xiao had brewed, and poured a cup for herself and Raiden Mei.

Bronya:? ? ?

And me? You just pour tea for Mei? Are you trying to isolate me?

Seeing this, Li Xiao picked up the teapot and poured Bronya a cup of tea.

At that moment, Kiana realized that she had unintentionally isolated Bronya.

"Uh, sorry, I didn't mean to."

Bronya glanced at her, then continued playing with her phone.

The atmosphere fell silent in this awkward silence.

until……

"boom!"

Theresa pushed the door open forcefully, making it slam against the wall with a loud bang that drew everyone's attention.

She stormed in, and as soon as she sat down, she grabbed the tea on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

"That cup of tea is the one I drank from."

Li Xiao looked at her phone and spoke slowly.

Theresa froze, her cheeks flushed, but in the end she chose to pretend she hadn't heard anything and pushed her teacup away.

Kiana asked curiously.

Why are you so angry?

"It's that wretched guy again! We can't find him no matter how hard we look!"

"I don't think you're actually looking for that person, are you?"

"What do you mean?"

Theresa glared at Li Xiao with an unfriendly expression.

Looking at Theresa's barely perceptible anger, Li Xiao thought to himself that she was putting on a very convincing act.

"You just want to slack off and avoid work, so you're just using this as an excuse to keep looking for people here, right?"

Oh no, you might have genuinely wanted to find someone at first, but that's definitely not the case now.

When her thoughts were exposed, Theresa's face turned awkward for a moment, but she quickly put on a serious expression again.

"You're talking nonsense! I love my job the most!"

"Then let it be that way."

Kiana then realized that her aunt also liked to slack off.

And yet you dare to lecture me?

But in the end, she only dared to think about it in her heart, after all, Theresa's teachings on love were still fresh in her mind.

Gentle Mei didn't want Theresa to feel too awkward, so she took the initiative to change the subject.

"Li Xiao, didn't you just tell us you'd found that person?"

"Oh? You really found it?!"

Theresa stood up instantly. Although her anger had indeed subsided considerably after these past few days, her main motivation now was to slack off.

But now that we've found him, it would be a waste of all these days of searching not to give him a good beating.

“That’s right, I’ve found a very suspicious person. I discovered that he can manipulate the wind to transmit information, which is similar to your description. It should be him.”

Where is that person?

Theresa had already started fidgeting with her fingers, itching to punch someone.

"He got away. I tried to catch him, but he just turned into a gust of wind and ran away."

"Give me a detailed description of what he looks like, and I'll have someone else look for him!"

As long as there is a specific appearance, with the intelligence network of Destiny, there is no one they cannot find!

"He was a bit short, carrying a harp, calling himself a bard, wearing green clothes and a green hat, and also liked to wear white silk."

"I got it."

Theresa wrote down these descriptions, knowing she would definitely teach them a lesson if she ever encountered them again.

Seeing Theresa's expression, Li Xiao suddenly felt like using a skill to summon Wendy over.

But after thinking about it, I decided against it. It's not the right time yet. Besides, it's one thing for Venti to take the blame in Teyvat, but if he were to take the blame in Honkai, it could easily lead to someone's death. It's better to find someone else to take the blame in the Honkai world.

"Now that things are settled here, shouldn't we get going?"

Theresa looked at him with some surprise.

"Do you want to join St. Freya too? Sure, but if your combat ability isn't up to par, you'll only be able to do logistics."

"I just want to go and take a look, and I'm pretty strong, I can at least tear a Herrscher apart with my bare hands."

"Huh? Really?"

Theresa looked at him with some suspicion. After all, even she, a former S-class Valkyrie of Schicksal, couldn't tear apart a Herrscher with her bare hands.

"This isn't important. Just tell me if you want me to go."

"If it's just a visit, then that's fine."

Now that the decision had been made, everyone set off immediately.

Of the group, only Raiden Mei had brought some clothes; the others had nothing to pack.

After arriving at an open area, an aircraft descended from the sky and landed steadily in front of everyone.

As the hatch opened, the first thing they saw was a red-haired beauty in combat gear, standing with her hands on her hips and smiling at them.

She spoke to Theresa as soon as she appeared.

"Hey! Theresa, have you had enough fun? Time to get back to work!"

Main Text: Chapter Seventy-Nine: Fu Hua's Memories

"Himeko!"

Theresa was somewhat displeased with her words.

"What do you mean 'playing'! I'm doing a serious job!"

"Okay, okay, you're the most diligent."

In front of outsiders, Himeko still gave her some face.

Then she took a closer look at the four people following Theresa.

"So, these little guys are the ones you were talking about who wanted to join our St. Freya?"

"That's right! Except for that boy, he was just there for a look around."

"A boy? That's a rare find."

Himeko scrutinized Li Xiao, marveling at him.

Li Xiao understood what she meant. In this era, men's resistance to Honkai energy was far lower than that of women, which meant that the main force fighting against Honkai was almost entirely women. That's why Himeko was so surprised to see him.

"Hello, my name is Li Xiao."

"Just call me Himeko. Let's go, let's go up first."

Himeko immediately called everyone to board the flying vehicle.

Once everyone was seated, the aircraft was started.

"Well, it'll be about an hour and a half to St. Freya. Let's all introduce ourselves. Li Xiao doesn't need to."

My name is Himeko Murata, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will likely become your teacher.

Kiana stood with her hands on her hips, looking confident.

"My name is Kiana! Remember this name, I'll definitely become very powerful in the future!"

Raiden Mei, on the other hand, is much more ladylike.

"Hello, Himeko-sensei, my name is Raiden Mei. Please take care of me from now on."

"Bronya."

As for Bronya, she seemed rather indifferent compared to the other two, only saying one name and then remaining silent.

Li Xiao watched this scene from the sidelines, feeling somewhat emotional.

With me here this time, those tragedies from before shouldn't happen again, right? Himeko won't have to teach Kiana her final lesson, will she?

......

Just as Himeko had said, the group arrived at St. Freya Academy a little over an hour later.

As soon as everyone disembarked from the aircraft, they found a person waiting for them, arms crossed and leaning against the wall.

Huh? Fu Zhuangshi? She joined St. Freya at this time? Li Xiao doesn't quite remember.

Upon seeing Fu Hua, Theresa introduced her to everyone:

"This is Fu Hua, also a student of our academy. Himeko and I have other things to do, so let her show you around the campus first."
