I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

Well... that's normal. After all, not everyone has the experience of suddenly arriving in another world. At first, Sirin and the other children who had been imprisoned were completely dumbfounded.

Ji Lin slightly curled the corners of his mouth and nodded, saying:

"I see... Indeed, most people don't have the experience of being transported to another world like in comics and novels~"

Hearing Ji Lin's words, Theresa nodded in agreement. Although she was now in another world, she had only ever dreamed of such things before, like in the world of Houmu...

Thinking about all this, Theresa wanted to ask Ji Lin if there was a world like Houmu, but she was too embarrassed to tell Ji Lin. After all, she was already in her fifties (I couldn't tell, W.), and it wouldn't be appropriate to talk to Ji Lin about these things!

.................................

Led by Ji Lin and Yuhaka, Theresa also saw the children who had been imprisoned in the experimental prison in the Babylonian laboratory.

Most of the children are doing quite well now. The thin clothes they wore in the hospital rooms have been replaced with otherworldly-style clothing, and their previously thin bodies have improved a bit, at least they don't look too thin anymore.

Seeing the children working in the shops and shops along the street, Theresa looked at Ji Lin with some confusion and said:

Are those children helping out at those shops?

Ji Lin nodded and said to Theresa:

"Yes, when the children first arrived, they were quite weak, and the residents of the neighborhood basically helped take care of them. After the children recovered, the residents came to help in the homes of the neighborhood residents."

Upon hearing Ji Lin's words, Theresa nodded with an "I understand" expression. If that was the case, Theresa understood why the children were helping out in the shops on the street. Moreover, Theresa could see the children's smiles and felt that they were not being forced or unhappy.

On the contrary, the children seemed to be having a very happy time.

"What about the children's parents? Don't they want to go back to their original homes?"

With this question in mind, Theresa asked Ji Lin beside her. Ji Lin told Theresa about the situation of those children in the Honkai world. After hearing that those children had lost their parents in their original world and were taken to the Babylon Laboratory by Destiny under the pretense of adopting orphans and used as experimental subjects, Theresa felt a very sad and painful feeling in her heart.

Theresa never imagined that there was such a place in the Babylon Laboratory. She also wondered if her grandfather Otto had known about it all along but had not done anything about it.

Theresa looked up at the sky of this other world and couldn't help but think:

Grandpa, do you really know about these things...?

....................................

Sitting on a bench in the street, Theresa pondered what Ji Lin had told her about the children and Sirin. Sirin had been brought to the Babylon Laboratory to conduct Honkai energy adaptation experiments because of the reason that the laboratory had taken in orphans...

According to Ji Lin, all the friends Sirin met at the Babylon Laboratory were killed because of the experiments conducted there. No wonder those children hated Schicksal so much. Moreover, that child was the Second Herrscher, which made Theresa worry about the child, after all, she had said something about destroying Schicksal.

As Theresa sat on the bench, pondering these matters, something cool suddenly touched her smooth cheek. Theresa let out a cute squeal and jumped off the bench. When she came to her senses, she saw Ji Lin holding two glass bottles containing some kind of liquid, greeting her and saying:

What are you thinking about so intently?

Hearing Ji Lin's words, Theresa wiped the cold water droplets from her cheeks and said:

"It's Ji Lin..."

After Theresa took the drink from Ji Lin, she said to Ji Lin:

"I was just thinking about Sirin..."

Upon hearing Theresa's words, Ji Lin understood why Theresa had a somewhat troubled expression. It was probably because Theresa was the granddaughter of the Bishop of Destiny that she looked so troubled.

Ji Lin, sitting next to Theresa, was removing the cork from the glass bottle in his hand when he said to Theresa:

"No wonder Theresa has such a headache... But, Theresa..."

Ji Lin turned to look at Theresa and said:

"What kind of organization is [Destiny]?"

Upon hearing Ji Lin's question, Theresa paused for a moment, then thought for a moment and said to Ji Lin:

"Hmm... to put it simply, it's probably an organization that specializes in eliminating special disasters caused by Honkai..."

In the following time, Ji Lin heard Theresa talk to him a lot about the Destiny organization. After listening to Theresa, Ji Lin roughly understood what kind of organization Destiny was. It was probably like the world police.

However, after hearing Theresa mention information about the Honkai Apostles, or Herrschers, Ji Lin thought of Sirin.

Chapter 374 [Sirin, Getting Ready to Steal a Meal]

"That is to say..."

Ji Lin sat on the bench, touched his lips with his finger, and said:

"Are the so-called Herrschers just messengers from the Honkai faction sent to destroy human civilization?"

Hearing Ji Lin's words, Theresa, who had been quietly taking a sip of her drink, nodded and said:

"Yes, that's right. There was once a technologically advanced civilization on Earth, and that civilization was destroyed by the Herrscher."

Upon hearing this information, Ji Lin also showed a very surprised expression. She hadn't expected the Herrscher to be so powerful. However... when Ji Lin thought of Sirin at home, whose cheeks were chubby like a hamster after eating Yuhaka's cooking, Ji Lin suddenly felt that the Herrscher wasn't so scary after all.

But Theresa, unaware of what Ji Lin was thinking, continued speaking to her:

"Regarding Sirin, that child... she is indeed the Second Herrscher, isn't she?"

Regarding Theresa's question, Ji Lin was also puzzled for a moment before saying to Theresa:

"What's wrong? Didn't Sirin say she was the Second Herrscher? And that bespectacled guy from Anti-Entropy also said Sirin was the Second Herrscher."

Theresa, standing to the side, scratched her cheek somewhat awkwardly and said:

"Uh...it's not that I doubt it, it's just that I feel like all Herrschers these days are so...easy to talk to?"

"???"

Ji Lin only showed a puzzled expression at Theresa's words, seemingly not quite understanding them. Seeing Ji Lin's confused look, Theresa quickly waved her hand and explained to him:

"That's not quite right. Welt, that bespectacled guy (Walter: Achoo!), he's a Herrscher too."

Upon hearing Theresa's words, Ji Lin responded with an "Oh~" to indicate that she understood. Ji Lin was also a little surprised when she thought of the middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses. She hadn't expected that the man was the Herrscher that Theresa had described as someone who would destroy the world. After all, in Ji Lin's eyes, the Herrscher named Welt seemed like an ordinary office worker.

However, Ji Lin also looked serious when he recalled the gravity-like ability that the man named Walter had used. Ji Lin thought that the ability to manipulate gravity might be even stronger.

I really don't want to run into that old man next time I'm fighting...

Just as Ji Lin was thinking this, Theresa, who was standing to the side, suddenly noticed that Yuhaka, who had been with them when the door opened, seemed to have disappeared. Theresa turned to Ji Lin and said:

"Huh? Where's that kid named Youyou from just now?"

Hearing Theresa's question, Ji Lin snapped out of his reverie, glanced at Theresa, and then looked around but didn't see Yuhaka. Ji Lin then explained to Theresa:

"Hmm... Chef Youyou isn't here. She probably went back to Merlin Cat Restaurant after buying the necessary ingredients, right?"

"Is that so?"

Theresa followed Ji Lin and looked around at the streets with a puzzled expression. Even so, Theresa did not expect that the child named Youyou would actually buy ingredients in this place. However, Theresa thought that Youhaka was probably from this world, so it was easy to understand why he would buy ingredients here.

.......................................

At Yuhaka's home.........

"Baby bath~ Baby bath~ Baby bath water is a must~ Just a drop~ A little soak~"

Yuhaka was carrying a change of clothes toward the bathroom. Behind Yuhaka, Sirin followed with a change of clothes. Sirin felt a little nervous looking at the big tail wagging behind Yuhaka.

Sirin's nervousness wasn't due to bathing with Yhaka or anything like that, but rather because she wanted to obtain some Honkai energy from Yhaka to become a Second Herrscher. Here, a Second Herrscher refers to one who can utilize imaginary numbers.

However, the method Sirin used to obtain Honkai energy this time refers to... a relatively intimate one...

Just thinking about it made steam rise from Sirin's head, because it was just too exciting! Therefore, Sirin couldn't help but think of the scene she saw Yuhaka and Jilin interacting in the bathroom last time.

"OwO?"

Yuhaka turned around and looked at Sirin, who was rolling on the ground with her face covered, and was very puzzled. After all, Yuhaka didn't know why Sirin was rolling on the ground. Then, Yuhaka thought it was a bit interesting and rolled on the floor with Sirin.

In the changing room of the bathroom, Sirin and Yuhaka took off their clothes and put them in a basket before going into the bathroom. In the bathroom, Sirin looked at Yuhaka, who was washing his hair, with a flushed face. While washing his hair, Yuhaka would close the cat ears on his head like lids to prevent water from getting in.

Finally, mustering her courage, Sirin said to Yuhaka beside her:

"Um, Teacher Youyou!"

=w=?

Yuhaka, a question mark appearing above his head, squinted at Sirin, as if asking her what was wrong. Sirin then spoke to Yuhaka:

"Teacher Youyou, I'd like to wash your hair for you!"

Hearing Sirin's words, Yuhaka tilted his head and nodded in agreement. Sirin then saw Yuhaka stand up from the small stool, come to her, and then "heave-ho!" plop down on her lap. The soft touch on her lap and the milky scent emanating from Yuhaka made Sirin's heart race.

"Xilin=w=?"

Feeling Sirin's heart pounding behind him, Yuhaka turned around in confusion, squinting at Sirin. Sirin, her face flushed, also realized what was happening and exclaimed, "Huh?!" before quickly rubbing Yuhaka's hair.

After feeling Sirin washing his hair, Yuhaka squinted his eyes, let out a comfortable sound, and wagged his big tail.

......................................

In the capital city of Biscotti, Ji Lin continued to take Theresa for a stroll through the streets. Ji Lin suggested that Theresa take the city sightseeing, and Theresa agreed.

Theresa and the others originally went to find the Second Herrscher. Now that they have found the Second Herrscher, the only remaining task is to persuade Sirin to give up her hatred for Schicksal.

This is the question Theresa needs to consider.

Chapter 375 [Fried Fish?]

The harmonious events that occurred between Yuhaka and Sirin, and the time when Ji Lin took Theresa sightseeing in the cities of Biscotti.

In the imaginary world located on the other side of the collapsed world...

"Um......."

"Cirin" slowly opened her eyes, looked at her empty hands, and said:

"Has it been absorbed completely...?"

Although she absorbed the Honkai energy crystal that hit her head, Sirin still felt that she didn't have enough Honkai energy, since Sirin now had six Herrscher cores.

He has his own "Core of Void", the "Thunder", "Fire", "Wind" and "Death" Herrscher Cores given to him by the gods, and the "Core of Reason" he obtained by killing that traitor on the moon. Now he has six cores, and the amount of Honkai energy he absorbs from the Honkai energy crystals is not enough for him.

The God once told me that if a Herrscher wants to obtain Honkai energy, they must go to a place with abundant Honkai energy and absorb it. The second way is to destroy human cities and eliminate humans, which will also cause that place to release a large amount of Honkai energy. With the ability of Imaginary Numbers, I should be able to absorb Honkai energy through spatial teleportation. "Sirin" can use Honkai energy to attack human cities to solve this problem, but unfortunately, the current "Sirin" cannot summon so many Honkai beasts.

After "Sirin" opened the gate to the imaginary number and stepped out of the imaginary space, she looked towards a tall tower in the distance, which was the location of the Babylonian Laboratory.

"Cirin" stroked her chin, thinking about something: if this place really is a parallel world, then could she meet herself in that parallel world?

If that's the case, then wouldn't there be two Second Herrschers? Wouldn't it be much easier to fight against the people of Schicksal and Anti-Entropy?

Thinking about this, "Cirin" felt a sense of excitement. However, "Cirin" was not clear about what time period this was. "Cirin" planned to go to the village where she used to live to take a look first.

Then "Cirin" opened the imaginary space and went to the village where she used to live with her mother.
