I found a belt in the Honkai Impact 3rd world.

45. I'll take these. And I'll take yours too.

"This is the cafeteria." After a period of aimless wandering, the routine task of leading the way was coming to an end. Kiana stood in front of Mo Mo, pointing to the "thriving" scene before them. The clean and spacious area was filled with groups of girls sitting together, laughing and chatting happily. The lively atmosphere and the aroma of food filled the cafeteria. However, Mo Mo noticed that the girl in front of him didn't seem very enthusiastic. Even on the way here, she hadn't said a word, completely avoiding any interaction. "Kiana, you seem unhappy." Although he roughly knew the reason, Mo Mo still asked knowingly, "Is something... bothering you?" "Of course... Mei won't eat lunch with me, she must be angry." Kiana scratched her head in distress, muttering to herself, "And why did I have to do this..." Mo Mo silently gazed at Kiana's retreating figure, seemingly able to glimpse a hint of desolation and loneliness within her. But he still couldn't decipher the deeper meaning behind Mei's final gesture. But so what? As the saying goes, "Heaven's sins may be forgiven, but self-inflicted sins are unforgivable." Since Kiana had sown the seeds, it was only natural for her to reap the bitter fruit. "Anyway, bringing you here is my mission accomplished," Kiana sighed, continuing, "I'm going to eat now." "Then see you later, Kiana," Mo Mo said with a smile, a double entendre, "Remember to eat well, otherwise you might not be able to concentrate in class." "I don't want you to remind me!" Kiana turned her head and made a face at Mo Mo before squeezing into the crowd. She soon disappeared from sight, only a glimpse of silver could be vaguely seen through the gaps between people. [Is this really that cute, considerate, and well-behaved junior?] A question flashed through her mind.

"But then again, well... being cute, considerate, and obedient actually seems a bit strange?" With a nonchalant sigh, Mo Mo joined the queue. Perhaps because she had taken a few extra steps beforehand, the queue was shorter, and it didn't take long for Mo Mo to reach the figure standing behind the window. Even at St. Freya Academy, the cafeteria lady was still the same cafeteria lady she remembered. "You...you're that new teacher? Or a student?" Upon seeing Mo Mo's face, the cafeteria lady paused slightly. "Both, I guess." This unexpected mention of her identity made Mo Mo seem a little embarrassed. "Do you know me?"

Even the cafeteria ladies had heard a bit about this newcomer, so it seemed she wouldn't be treated like some kind of intruder and cause any trouble anymore. Mo Mo, on the other hand, noticed that curious glances occasionally lingered on him, but unlike in some light novels where his "rare" status would draw a crowd of onlookers, was this a stroke of luck or misfortune?

What does this prove? It proves you don't have the potential to be a light novel protagonist, you idiot. Otherwise, the following plot would be about you flitting from one flower to another.

[And then not a single petal clings to me? Don't be ridiculous, all my functions are perfectly normal, I can't handle that. 1 [I think you're abnormal no matter how I look at you...] [Why do you say that?] [To be honest, I've been with you for so long, inseparable, and I've never seen you... not even once, isn't that strange?] The system suddenly made a very bad comment...

This system seems to be malfunctioning, it's spouting nonsense, let's ignore it. "Of course, the news has spread." The cafeteria lady laughed heartily, "Alright, enough said, student, are you begging?" "Huh? I'm not...." Mo Mo swallowed back his subconscious answer, "No, no, no, begging, I want food." [Wait, why does that sound so... strange?]... Putting those pointless feelings of incongruity aside, Mo Mo lowered his head and began to struggle. The food at St. Freya Academy did look very good, with a perfect combination of color, aroma, and taste that made one's mouth water, all very tempting choices, but... unfortunately, he was short of money, so he decided to have some vegetarian food to cleanse his stomach. "Which student do you want to eat?" Seeing Mo Mo lower his head and hesitate for a long time, the cafeteria lady asked, "Have you decided?" "Hmm, I'll eat these students... no, no, these dishes." Lost in thought, Mo Mo almost got led astray. Mo Mo quickly gestured a few times through the window. "Okay." The cafeteria lady was also very quick, completing her task in a very fast manner. However, when it was Mo Mo's turn to pay, there was a slight hiccup.

Why can't I feel anything when I put my hand in my pocket? "Excuse me, could you please wait a moment?" the older woman called out, lifting the plate in her hand. "Sorry, just a moment." Damn it, this is it.

[Were you in such a hurry when you left today? Did you not have a single penny?] [No!] The memory of rushing out of the house to avoid being late for work on my first day is still vivid in my mind, seemingly mocking myself silently.

Well, it seems I really am a beggar now! As a bead of cold sweat slid down his forehead, Mo Mo pulled his hand out of his empty pocket. Under the suspicious gaze of the middle-aged woman, Mo Mo's Adam's apple bobbed a few times.

"Excuse me, oops, sorry, please let me through." Amidst a series of shoving and apologies, someone darted out from beside Mo Mo and squeezed next to him. Then, he gestured a few times through the window.

"I want this, this, and that." She then pointed to the plate that was still in the cafeteria lady's hand. "And that one too." "This fellow..." The cafeteria lady's spoon hovered in mid-air, her gaze shifting back and forth between Mo Mo and the uninvited guest, appearing quite...

"I've been in this business for so long, and I've never encountered a scenario like this before. Is someone suddenly appearing out of nowhere to steal my thunder?" Kiana? This is a bit unexpected. "W-what?" Kiana grinned, her expression unnatural, and asked, "Do you have a problem with this?" "I was going to say..." Kiana pushed past Mo Mo without further ado, interrupting him with her actions, 'Anyway, I want them all!'

46. ​​A small test paper contains great meaning.

In a sparsely populated corner, the two sat facing each other. Mo Mo looked down at the green plate, but didn't put down his chopsticks for a long time. [I didn't expect this girl to be so loyal, tsk tsk tsk, I really didn't expect that.] The system's exclamation also helped to fill in the previous recap. [You're really lucky, aren't you?] Lucky? Mo Mo ignored the system, just picked at the food on the plate with his chopsticks, and silently glanced at Kiana. The bowl, which was obviously loaded with extra food, was already empty, and only a few surviving units could be seen on the plate in front of him. But it was probably going to end in total annihilation. It was the same Kiana, not the imposter. "Why are you staring at me?" Noticing Mo Mo's gaze, Kiana stopped eating. "Don't tell me you don't want to eat, I paid for this! You have to eat it no matter what! You have to finish it!" Of course. Mo Mo didn't rush to put down his chopsticks, but instead put on a smiling expression and said, "Thank you, Kiana. I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't suddenly appeared."

From any perspective, this was a huge miscalculation. Didn't bring any money with me? [I can't believe there are still idiots who forget their money these days.] [If you repeat this, I'll pawn you off for a meal next time!] [Do you think I'm worth more than a meal?] Mo Mo's nonchalant words ignited the system's fuse, but didn't receive much attention from him. "No, I just happened to see it." Kiana looked away, then muttered softly, 'Besides, why, why do I insist on having a meal with you again...'

"You should be the one asking me that, since the plate is in your hands, I'm just following you." But anyway, since Kiana paid for this meal, it wouldn't hurt to let her say a few more words. "Are you worried about being misunderstood?" "What else?" Kiana's answer was without the slightest hesitation. Such a straightforward and decisive reply made Mo Mo hesitate whether to tell Kiana what he had just seen. The cafeteria lady's teasing expression had left a very deep impression on Mo Mo. But it shouldn't be a big problem. "If it weren't for the fact that you helped me... cough cough, helped me with that thing, I wouldn't have bothered with you." Kiana still carefully omitted the word "cheating." [System, did you see that? This is the reward.] The reward brought by a small note. Or perhaps this is the noble quality of the Kaslana family, who always lend a helping hand to those in need. "I only apologized because I saw you cheating... Okay, okay, I won't say anything more." After Kiana gestured with her chopsticks in each hand with an unfriendly expression, Mo Mo naturally apologized, then added, "But even if you helped me this time, I won't go easy on you next time in class. This is a teacher's bottom line, I hope you can understand." Kiana glanced at Mo Mo, neither confirming nor denying, and silently finished her bowl, then leaned back in her chair. "Not as good as Mei's." Kiana commented. "Is that so?" Mo Mo responded, finally picking up a leaf of vegetables. Sure enough, not as good as her own. But, edible! "I'm sorry about what happened this morning..." Just as Mo Mo was busy finishing her portion, Kiana suddenly spoke softly. "What did you say?" "It was during the practical class this morning." Kiana's voice was so soft that Mo Mo even suspected it could cover her chewing sounds, "I shouldn't have started this commotion, I'm sorry..."

Mo Mo couldn't help but look up again. "Do you really think of me as such a petty person? That I'd hold a grudge over something so trivial?" Don't you feel the same way? You were so ruthless! Just thinking about it made Kiana's whole body ache. She'd already had several close encounters with the ground during just one break. "I told you, that was 'extra care' specially prepared for you. Why don't you understand my good intentions?" Mo Mo sighed, but didn't stop eating. "Good intentions?" "Although your practical results are indeed very good, you're too easily inflated," Mo Mo continued. "While confidence is a good thing, too much of it can easily backfire at crucial moments, and then... might lead to some unpleasant results." "But what does this have to do with you bullying me because you're so powerful?" Kiana questioned, her eyes narrowing.

"You're hopeless! I've made myself perfectly clear, don't you understand?" "Anyway, don't worry, I'm not that vengeful. I've already forgotten about that little thing." "You have to forget it, whether you want to or not," Kiana said matter-of-factly. "This meal is on me." "Yes, yes, thank you for your mercy, Miss Kiana, for standing up for me. If I'd known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have ordered a vegetarian dish." "That's more like it." Kiana nodded in satisfaction, picked up her plate, and stood up. "Never mind you, you eat yours, I'm going to find Mei."

Mo Mo waved to Qiyana's retreating figure and picked up another vegetable leaf.

Ugh, I want to eat meat.

"Himeko, how did the test go?" In the principal's office, Theresa sat at her desk and asked Himeko across the table, her expression quite serious. "Here it is, take a look for yourself." Handing Theresa a piece of paper, Himeko added, "There's a surprise at the end." At the top of the paper was Mo Mo's name written... Theresa frowned as she took the test paper and read it step by step from the top. "It seems he knows quite a lot..." Besides the most basic common sense, he also seems to have a certain grasp of some more hidden information. "Himeko crossed her arms and said with great interest, 'I don't believe he knows nothing about the villain, but the question is, where did he learn all this?' 'But isn't this error rate a bit...' Theresa's lips twitched. 'Well, it's passable, but why did he get even the easy questions wrong? Why can he answer questions not in the textbook?' 'This shows he hasn't received a systematic education, but that's not the point.' Himeko continued, 'The point is the short answer questions later.' 'Hmm, how would you evaluate the Herrscher of the Void?' Theresa's gaze also jumped to the short answer questions. '...' After scanning them, Theresa silently placed the test paper on the table. 'How was it? Wasn't his answer interesting?' Himeko still had a relaxed smile. 'Himeko, what do you think?' After a long silence, Theresa asked. 'That's a question for you, my dear elementary school principal.'" "Himeko countered, "As someone who fought the Second Herrscher head-on and survived the Second Calamity, what do you think of his answer?" "I don't know how to evaluate it, but one thing is certain," Theresa said, picking up the exam paper.

"Rip rip rip *N. Theresa tossed the fragments of the test paper into the trash can before finally finishing her sentence. 'It's best not to let anyone see this.' 'I think so too,' Himeko nodded in agreement. 'So you're completely at ease with him now? 'He's a good guy.' Himeko gave her own answer, 'I can only hope he's a person of his word.' 'I hope so,' Theresa added casually. 'Then let's stop testing him for now. It's almost time for class, Himeko, aren't you going to prepare?' 'No rush, no rush, I have something I want to show you.' Himeko waved her hand."

“There’s something else.” Himeko took out another piece of paper from her pocket and handed it to Theresa. “This is Kiana’s exam paper. Take a look at it.”

47. Identical exam papers

"Mei~ Please don't be mad at me anymore~" In the classroom, Kiana kept shaking Mei's arm, wearing a fawning smile, oblivious to everyone else, and whining, "[This yuri vibe is killing me.]" Finally, the system couldn't stand it anymore and complained, "[What do you think, Mo?]" 1 "[What do you mean, 'what do you think'?" Mo Mo seemed completely unmoved. "[When I sat in this seat, I already expected it.]" Bronya was even more direct, completely ignoring it, sitting in her seat seriously flipping through her textbook, presumably already used to it. But even at her level, she still had such a big curiosity about the contents of the textbook? "[Don't understand? This is the difference between you and her.]" 1 "[Probably.]" Mo Mo replied perfunctorily. And Kiana's "pleasure" wasn't over yet. "Do you really know you were wrong?" Mei sat unmoving in her seat, glancing slightly at Kiana as she asked. "Really, I promise!" Kiana, as if seeing a glimmer of hope, nodded frantically. "Next time... no, no, I promise there won't be a next time!" Finally having learned her lesson, Kiana didn't leave any more ammunition. "Then the homework..." Mei continued. "Um..." Kiana's resolute expression cracked slightly, and she hesitated. "Well..."

"I promise I'll do it!" Under Mei's pressure, Kiana could only close her eyes tightly and grit her teeth as she answered, as if it were such a painful choice for her. "That's a good girl." Mei finally smiled and reached out to stroke Kiana's ahoge (cowlick). "I forgive you." "Yeah, I knew Mei was the best!" Kiana, feeling like she'd been granted a pardon, immediately threw herself into Mei's arms, beaming with joy. Her previous hesitation and doubt vanished instantly, as if they had never existed. "Kiana, stop fooling around." Mei chuckled and comforted Kiana, then met Mo Mo's gaze, who remained expressionless. She had inadvertently forgotten that there was now another person beside her. "It's okay, it's okay, you don't need to worry about me." Seeing Mei's expression gradually become awkward, Mo Mo quickly declared himself to be a mere bystander with no presence. After all, he was a gentle and refined Yamato Nadeshiko; it was understandable that he felt shy in this situation. [What? Are you jealous?] [How could I? I just feel... I've seen this scene somewhere before.] What? Kiana lifted her head from Mei's chest, her eyebrows slightly raised as she looked at Mo Mo. "Do you have a problem with that?" "Of course not, what problem could I possibly have?" Mo Mo shrugged. "Well, you're smart." "It's just that someone might have a problem with that." Mo Mo gestured towards the area behind Kiana. A smug smile instantly froze on Kiana's face. Turning her head, sure enough, Himeko was slightly bent over, looking at Kiana, her smile radiating smugness. "Kiana, do you know how long the bell has rung?" Kiana hesitated and shook her head, but quickly realized and nodded. "If you know, why aren't you sitting in your seat!" Himeko nodded, her expression suddenly changing, and she shouted sternly. "Pfft." Kiana, who slunk back to her seat under everyone's gaze, immediately caused a tacit burst of snickers, but these quickly subsided with a light cough from Himeko. Turning around and walking to the podium, Himeko announced loudly, "The results of the morning's test are out!" Mo Mo, who had been lacking motivation, was immediately drawn to this sentence, and even Kiana changed her dejected look and looked up at the podium. "[Will I pass?]" This question simultaneously appeared in the minds of Mo Mo and Kiana. For Mo Mo, this was an exam that concerned whether the teacher's authority could be preserved. But for Kiana, it was much simpler. After being caught cheating, she was scolded by Mei, and her wallet even bled. After all that effort, a passing grade shouldn't be too much of a problem. What an outrageous request! "This exam... [Here it comes! 1*2]"

"Everyone passed." Mo Mo and Kiana both felt a huge weight lifted from their hearts. Neither noticed Himeko's meaningful gaze. "However, this test was relatively easy, so I hope everyone won't be complacent, but will continue to work hard and maintain this result." Himeko casually uttered a standard teacher's line, "especially some" students.

However, the two, immersed in the joy of passing the test, didn't take it to heart. "But there's no need to correct any mistakes on this test, so I won't hand them out. Everyone just needs to go through the textbook again." Himeko continued, "Also, Mo Mo." "Hmm?" Mo Mo, whose name was called, looked up at Himeko. "Come to my office after school."

[Oh no, I'm doomed. I think the cheating was discovered.][Why am I the only one being called? I'm just an accomplice. Kiana is the main culprit. Why isn't she being called?] 1 "Teacher, I have something I want to talk to you about alone. Is there a problem?" From Himeko's expression, Mo Mo didn't detect any unusual emotions.

"Okay." Himeko nodded, opened her book, and said, "Let's begin class now."

A few minutes ago,

"Kiana's test paper?" Theresa took another test paper from Himeko, glanced at it briefly, and looked surprised. 'She actually passed!' "Take a closer look," Himeko reminded her. Following Himeko's instructions, Theresa did as she did, only then realizing something was wrong. Although the previous paper was now just scraps of paper in the trash, it didn't mean Theresa's memory would fade so quickly... Wasn't it basically the same as Momo's test paper?!

This is clearly a hastily written, copied answer. Even the short answer questions weren't corrected! You'd at least change a few sentences if you copied an essay! This kid… Putting the test paper back on the desk, Theresa sighed helplessly. "When will you learn your lesson… Ah…" "The task is arduous and the road is long, this is my responsibility as a teacher," Himeko said. "Kiana seems to be getting quite close to that kid, did Mei tell you?" "Although she told me, I just don't think it's very likely." Theresa seemed quite open-minded. "But these are their own affairs, let them handle it themselves, right?" "Why do I feel like you're particularly trusting of that unknown kid?" Himeko finally voiced her question, "Tell me the truth, is there something you're hiding from me?" "Well…"

"Masaka!" Himeko suddenly thought of a very serious possibility. "Hey, don't think like that!" Theresa quickly slammed her hand on the table and stood up. "He's just an acquaintance's younger brother, nothing more."

If this line of thinking is allowed to continue, what kind of picture will it become? "An acquaintance?" Himeko pressed, "Someone from headquarters?" "Sort of," Theresa replied, "but the matter is rather complicated, I don't know, and I didn't ask." "Then you should have said so earlier, so I wouldn't have been so suspicious." "It's the same whether you know now or not, just don't tell anyone. It's their business, we shouldn't interfere. Let nature take its course." "Okay, then I'm completely relieved." The last trace of doubt in her heart was dispelled, and Himeko felt a little more relaxed. "In this way, our Far East branch has gained a secret weapon for free, right? I just wonder what other secrets that kid is hiding." "I believe he will tell us in the future. For now... let's leave it as it is." Theresa then changed the subject, "You should go to class, Himeko."

"Yes, yes, yes, my lovely elementary school principal." With a flippant wave, Himeko turned and left with a flourish. "That test paper is yours. You'd better keep an eye on your niece's education." "It's not that simple..." Theresa muttered to herself, picking up the test paper again. Her gaze remained fixed on the last short-answer question. Although it was Kiana's test paper, Mo Mo's answers were filled in. [Writing such answers, is it youthful arrogance, or... what is she trying to express? This question can only be answered by asking the person in question. Right. Theresa suddenly realized.]

This exam paper can't be kept either! So, a few more scraps of paper appeared in the principal's office trash can.

48. Teacher Mo's authority

"Everyone, assemble!" In the empty training hall, Mo Mo clapped his hands and shouted to the students scattered in all directions. "Class is about to begin!" Although they usually seemed carefree, they were, after all, students trained to fight against the Honkai, and they still maintained excellent discipline. Soon, three familiar formations appeared in front of Mo Mo. "Mo Mo, what are we doing in class today?!" someone shouted from within the formation, eliciting a chorus of chuckles. Okay, let's take back that earlier assessment. These students are really quite mischievous.

"Be serious!" Mo Mo said loudly with a stern face, "It's class time now, you should call me Teacher Mo!" "Okay, Mo Mo, I understand."

The laughter became more pronounced.

"Is he really too young? He can't even control a bunch of young girls." ["Give me a break. With that face of yours, you have absolutely no presence."] ["I really don't believe it."] "Who was that person who spoke just now? Step forward!" Mo Mo shouted sharply, hands behind his back.

Kiana squeezed out of the crowd. "Huh? No?" Kiana turned her head blankly, looking around at the now empty surroundings, then turned back to look at the formation several steps away, completely bewildered. "What's going on?" "So it's you again?" Mo Mo's sharp gaze locked onto the bewildered Kiana. "Wait, what's going on?" She just spaced out for a moment, how did she seem to have gotten into trouble again? "Openly provoking the teacher, Kiana, how dare you!" "I didn't! I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!" Kiana tried her best to explain, not wanting to be blamed for this. "Alright, you don't need to explain anymore." Mo Mo reached out to interrupt Kiana, "I will be giving you one-on-one tutoring this class, and the rest of you will practice in pairs."

[You can make an example of someone and still get another class by yourself, pretty cunning, huh? Is your brain-dead mode on cooldown?] The system saw right through Mo Mo's thoughts. [Is being a teacher this easy?] [Practical classes definitely need to be practical. I'll study the other content properly when I have time.] Anyway, tomorrow is Dual Body Day, I'll study it seriously then. "I don't want to!" Kiana's refusal was incredibly decisive. Just kidding, she's not a masochist, and she absolutely doesn't want to experience this morning's practical class again. "Even if you refuse," Mo Mo pointed behind Kiana, "everyone has already found their opponents?" "What?!" At some point, the originally neat square formation had scattered, splitting into pairs as Mo Mo had said. Only she was left all alone. "How long are you going to wait?" Mo Mo stepped forward and patted Kiana's shoulder, who was still stunned. "Hurry up... The lesson is about to begin!" Without warning, Mo Mo's hand on Kiana's shoulder suddenly tightened. "Waaaaa!"

3...

"That's about it for today." Mo Mo panted heavily, wiping away his sweat. Without his transformation, he was clearly inferior in every aspect, even his stamina. After a sparring session, Mo Mo was already breathless. Kiana was the same. "..." Kiana silently rubbed her head, swaying, seemingly still recovering from the almost unbearable dizziness. "How are you feeling? Uh-okay." She stumbled, but didn't fall. "See how good I am to you? I catch you every time you're about to fall, I'm practically your human cushion." Mo Mo helped Kiana straighten up. Not bad, she'd improved compared to this morning. Keep up the good work next time. After the initial protection period, Kiana was able to unleash her full potential against Mo Mo. Although, so far, she hadn't won a single match. "Next time?" Kiana suddenly snapped back to reality—she instantly woke up.

Startled. "Don't you want to beat me?" Mo Mo's smile held a hint of provocation. "Are you... scared?" "Who's scared!" Although it was just a very simple provocation, its effect was undeniable. "Then keep trying, Kiana." Mo Mo smiled brightly and gave a thumbs up. "You have a bright future ahead of you."

"I look forward to the day you defeat me. Until then, do your best!" After confirming Kiana had fully recovered, Mo Mo shouted to the others, "Class, gather around!" That concludes today's lesson. School's out! Even on weekends, don't slack off too much! Remember to review the lessons learned in class.

Without realizing it, Mo Mo seemed to have picked up this set of lines as well. "Goodbye, Mo Mo!" "Call me teacher, kora!"

This time of year has always been incredibly appealing to students. They strolled off, arms around each other, laughing and joking, full of youthful energy. "What a bunch of naughty kids," Mo Mo muttered under his breath before leaving the training hall. He remembered he had to go to the office—to that place that had been considered forbidden during his student days.

A figure walked out of the teaching building. "[Got scolded, huh?]" the system said. "[Got scolded, huh?]" Mo Mo replied.

With a heavy heart, I entered the office, then left dejectedly. It was just like my past, naive and ignorant self. 2. After repeated assurances, Himeko finally let go of her worries. 2. [Okay, stop worrying so much, think about something happy.] The system said, [Tomorrow is the weekend, what are you planning to do? This is your first holiday in months!] 1. [I have so many things to do.] But I don't have the corresponding wallet. [Whatever, let's go home first and sleep in all day tomorrow!] After working so hard for so long, it's time to relax. Stretching, Mo Mo strode past the training hall, then caught a glimpse of a blurry figure under the light through the window. [At this hour, why is there still someone in the training hall?] 1. Surely no random thieves could have infiltrated St. Freya. It can only be a student. Could it be Fu Hua?

After much thought, Mo Mo felt that as long as she was that diligent, [what's the point of guessing here, go and see for yourself?] [Can't you see I'm already at the door?] Opening the unlocked door, Mo Mo walked into the still-lit corridor. Deliberately slowing her pace, Mo Mo cautiously approached the entrance of the venue and stealthily peeked inside. [The scene was different; it didn't match his expectations.]

49. Teacher Mo's "Life Talk"

"Huff... In the vast training hall, only one figure, panting heavily, stood in the center. Oh no, not just one, but also a huge purple and white figure lurking before her. Facing the tank-class horned monster in front of her, Kiana's face showed no fear, but her constantly heaving chest and the sweat-soaked training clothes betrayed her current state. Although it was just a simulated opponent, the pressure that kept her nerves constantly on edge was undeniably real. What? You ask how this was done? Need I say more? It's black technology, one of the specialties of the horned monster world, something you have to experience. As for the principle... don't ask!" "Again, I'll warn you! You don't need to know so much about the Horned Beast!" Panting heavily, Kiana and the Horned Beast maintained a distance, staring at each other's every move, but neither was in a hurry to attack. How many was this already? She didn't count, nor was there any need. Just kill it; such unnecessary things were pointless. Although her body was nearing its limit, it was okay, she could manage. It was just a fake Chariot-class beast. That guy could kill countless of these in an instant. Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely! She couldn't let it look down on her anymore! Kiana's eyes narrowed, and she lowered her waist. The enormous figure sensed Kiana's movement, reacting first, slamming the ground angrily, and lunging towards Kiana with its massive "fist."

Such a monotonous movement is far too simple, and far too slow! With a light, slight sweep, the massive figure brushed past Kiana, the swirling air ruffling the ends of her braided hair.

Taking advantage of the moment when the Baokai Beast was unsteady on its feet, Kiana unleashed a spinning kick, targeting its hind legs, which seemed tiny compared to its massive forelimbs. The enormous figure, losing its balance, crashed to the ground instantly. Yes, merely "knocking it down" wasn't enough. Kiana leaped high into the air, rotating 0 degrees mid-air, and delivered a -2 flying kick to the fallen Tank-class.

The "battle" was about to end, but just as it was about to hit, the monster's body suddenly turned into a blur, gradually disappearing before Kiana's eyes. The flying kick, as expected, missed. With a "whoosh," the unsuspecting Kiana fell to the floor, completing her nth intimate encounter with the floor today. "What's going on?" Kiana stood up, clutching her backside, and looked towards the equipment, finding someone fiddling with it. [Wow, this is really high-tech! The thing it creates looks so real.] Mo Mo looked at the platform full of cases with great interest. [Did I just turn it off completely?] [Use your eyes! Isn't it obvious?]... Looking at the figure, out of curiosity, Kiana couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing here?" I was about to ask you the same thing, Kiana. Mo Mo decided to ignore the incomprehensible equipment and walked towards Kiana, casually tossing her a towel. "It's so late, why are you still here? Don't you want school to end?" The towel landed squarely on Kiana's head. She didn't say much, wiping the fine beads of sweat from her forehead and neck before draping it over her neck. "Is this even necessary? Of course I'm practicing." Being looked down upon by Kiana always made Mo Mo feel uneasy. "Practice? Have you eaten? Played games? Touched the fish?"

Wow, so diligent? Did they eat something wrong?

"Just kidding, just kidding." Mo Mo reached behind his back and magically produced two cans of drinks. "Here, for you." "Oh, th-thank you." Taking the drinks Mo Mo tossed to her, the cool touch stimulating her warm skin, Kiana blankly said thank you, then turned around and asked, "Wait, how long have you been watching?" "Probably since a few minutes ago," Mo Mo replied ambiguously. "You were practicing so diligently, didn't you even notice there was another spectator?" "Who would notice you?" Kiana glanced at Mo Mo and walked straight to the seats at the edge of the field. Kiana sat down in a chair, crossed her aching legs, and pulled on the tab to drink a small amount. The cool, sweet and sour liquid, mixed with the tingling of soda, burst open in her mouth, injecting a sliver of clarity into her increasingly fatigued brain. "9--~" A happy, content smile appeared beneath her furrowed brows. However, upon realizing the presence of a second person, Kiana's expression quickly changed, as if it had all been an illusion. Mo Mo also sat down beside her, three seats away, sipping his favorite drink and glancing at the silent Kiana out of the corner of his eye. [Her fair skin, flushed with an alluring pink after strenuous exercise, mixed with residual drops of water, carried a faint, almost imperceptible scent in the air. Her drooping brows betrayed her fatigue, and she appeared unusually serene, unlike her usual energetic self. 1 [Okay, you don't need to read it anymore, I can see it. 1 [I'm going to read out what you see, little brother.] "Or should I just let you make a fortune here quietly?" [That's about enough, any more and there might be some problems.] "What's wrong?" "Nothing, I was just thinking about why you're training so late." Mo Mo replied, 'I don't think you're that diligent.' 'Tch, you talk like you know me so well.' Kiana took a small sip of her lime soda and muttered softly, 'It's none of your business.' "I'm sorry, Kiana, besides being your classmate, I'm also your practical training teacher." "We haven't had many classes, but Mo Mo has already learned to put on airs. "Come on, share your thoughts with your teacher, you can also confide in your teacher about anything that's bothering you."

"Don't want to say?" Mo Mo picked up the conversation, leaving me to guess. "Aha! You weren't provoked by me today, were you?" "You lost so badly you're so unwilling to accept it that you've started working hard?" Mo Mo felt his reasoning was logical and convincing. "No way!" Kiana instinctively retorted, then looked away from Mo Mo's questioning gaze. "I just... I just..."

"Bang!" No matter how hard she racked her brains, Kiana couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation, so she could only choose to self-destruct. "I admit, there is a tiny bit of a connection, just a tiny bit! Who would believe that?" Mo Mo thought to himself, "Is it really that big of a deal? It's just a slightly larger loss, have you never lost in school before? It's obviously impossible." "Is that the same thing?" Kiana replied sullenly, "You're not a Valkyrie. Just an ordinary... well, it seems you're not ordinary at all. [You seem to have hurt that girl's confidence.] [Maybe what I did before did hurt her confidence.] Although in Mo Mo's opinion, it was just reasonable and there was nothing special about the sparring. "Take it easy, think about it from a different perspective." Mo Mo patiently comforted her, "You didn't wear the Valkyrie armor, nor did you use any special abilities, so there's no need to be so resentful." "As if I could win just by using them." Kiana muttered.

How come this child is so adorable? [Your older brother shouldn't criticize your younger sister; they're both the same, is it meaningful to laugh at someone who's worse off?]...

"Speaking of which, why are you so eager to defeat me?" Mo Mo countered. "Or rather, Kiana, what is your reason for wanting to become stronger?"

50. Momo - Sympathetic Kindness - Kiana

The reason for becoming stronger. For those living in a world where they could face unforeseen disasters at any moment, for Valkyries who must constantly rush to the front lines to fight evil, this is an inescapable question. "Kiana, what is your reason for wanting to become stronger?" "Reason?" Kiana paused slightly, looking up at the ceiling. "..." She remained silent for a long time, lost in thought.

"My aunt said she'd tell me where my dad is once I become an A-rank Valkyrie, so I have to get stronger." It seemed like a reply, yet also like talking to herself. "Wait, why am I telling you all this?" "Wait? Aren't we friends?" "Are we friends?" "Aren't we?"

Really? "I think so."

[I can't listen to this anymore. What kind of idiotic conversation is this?] So, you want to become stronger just to find your father?

“Otherwise, I wouldn’t have listened to my aunt and stayed at St. Freya Academy as a Valkyrie.” Kiana’s expression seemed more relaxed after her initial resistance lessened. “But it seems you’re still quite a distance from your goal.” Mo Mo poured cold water on her like that, “I remember you’re only a B-rank Valkyrie right now, right?” “So what! I’ll be an A-rank Valkyrie soon!” Kiana immediately bristled, then deflated instantly. If it weren’t for that…

"Damn it... So why do we Valkyries have to learn all this stuff?! Lessons that help with combat are one thing, but what's the point of all that nonsense? We're supposed to be warriors fighting against evil!" [Tsk tsk tsk, looks like this girl has quite a bit to complain about.] The system clicked its tongue. "Okay, I'm practically your teacher, and you're just being so blunt?" "Don't even mention you, even if Himeko were here, I'd still say it!" Kiana had just straightened her back and seemed a little tougher, but then she put on a worried expression and looked around.

"Don't worry, Himeko-sensei definitely won't be here right now." Kiana's cowardly appearance made Mo Mo want to laugh. "Well then..." Kiana sighed in relief, "Let me make this clear, I'm not scared!" "Yes, yes, you're not scared," Mo Mo echoed. "But then again, Kiana, if you're so resistant to that knowledge, are you going to become a pagan after peace is restored?"

"But spending time on those things will only delay my transformation into an A-rank Valkyrie." Although she had softened her stance, Kiana remained adamant. "I need to find my dad as soon as possible." 7... Mo Mo paused slightly. "Then I wish you a speedy fulfillment of your wish." However, Mo Mo also knew very well that Theresa's actions were merely a delaying tactic to keep Kiana in St. Freya. Even Mo Mo, who understood the plot, didn't know exactly where that elusive, enigmatic man was in the world.

After a brief appearance in the Moon Shadow arc, she vanished without a trace, never appearing again in the main storyline. Even Mo Mo's attempt to give Kiana a cheat code was futile. "Just you wait and see, it won't be long before you're no match for me!" Kiana brandished her fist at Mo Mo, seemingly regaining her confidence.

"Let's wait and see."

Mo Mo simply couldn't bear to tell her this cruel truth. Even if she were to evolve from a paramecium into sodium chloride, she still wouldn't be a match for him. Mo Mo had even defeated Sirin, who possessed five Herrscher cores... no, he had a glorious record of defeating a five-core Herrscher. [Although it was two against one. Looking across the entire Heroic World, how many people could pull off such a feat?]

[It was clearly someone who let her win...and I think you weren't the only one, she got beaten up almost as many times as you later.] The system mercilessly exposed her, [I did read the manga later, don't lie to me.] [Can't you stop talking so much? Let me have a little self-satisfaction, okay?] The atmosphere Mo Mo had painstakingly built up vanished instantly, [And when did you read the manga? I had no idea!] But anyway, without realizing it, Mo Mo had become one of the top people in the world.

But who knows what random guy might pop out of nowhere? So for now, we'd better keep a low profile. All skills are useless without a coward. "Wait," Kiana seemed to remember something, "Didn't you say before that you were also here to find your dad?" "Huh?" Mo Mo paused slightly, then nodded, "Oh, what a coincidence." Kiana felt a little more comfortable with Mo Mo now, "Your dad...is he also..."

"He's always been like this. Ever since I could take care of myself, he's hardly ever home." Since it wasn't anything major or confidential, Mo Mo didn't mind saying a few more words. "It's just that this time he's been gone for a long time, and I can't contact him. Besides, I have something very important I need to do by finding him."

“I’m used to it by now.” Mo Mo said with complete resignation. “Speaking of which, maybe those two are sitting in a bar drinking right now, just like we are now.” As Mo Mo spoke, he shook the Yaozi in his hand. “Pfft, what a coincidence.” “Who can say for sure?” Mo Mo didn’t deny Kiana’s reaction. Holding the can of drink, Kiana stammered out another question, “What about your other relatives?” Other relatives? ...I’ve never seen my mother since I can remember, and my dad has never mentioned her to me, so I don’t even know what kind of person she is. ...[Wait, why does this little girl suddenly seem a bit off?][She’s probably thinking of Cecilia.] The figure of someone I’d met once flashed through Mo Mo’s memory. [Wait, didn’t you read the manga?]

"Don't you know? This child has never experienced maternal love. Poor child."

This is called sharing a similar plight.

The word "mother" felt so foreign to me. "But I do have an older sister," Mo Mo said thoughtfully, stroking her chin. "Although we haven't met much." "I don't have a sister." "No, you do, but the day you two finally meet will surely be a very shocking scene."

"Anyway, just keep trying." Mo Mo was already used to this. "My dad once said that family ties are an unbreakable bond. Even if we're far apart, our hearts are still connected." So sooner or later, we'll definitely be able to reunite. [It's been a long time since we had a chance to recite some quotes.] "Yeah, no matter what, I'm going to find that jerk of a dad and give him a good beating!" Kiana clenched her fist and said with high spirits. "Yes, give him a good beating!" They looked at each other and read similar thoughts in each other's eyes.

Kiana

A shout from a third party rang out at the edge of the arena. "Mei?" Kiana looked in the direction of the sound and saw a familiar figure standing at the entrance. "Bronya told me you were coming to the training hall..." Mei, who was slowly approaching, also saw Momo sitting to one side. "Oh, Momo's here too."

Good evening, Mei-kun.

"Wait... Kiana, what's going on?" Mei's gaze darted back and forth between Kiana and Momo. "I'm here for training, you've been working hard!" Kiana patted her chest proudly. "That's rare, Kiana, you're actually working this hard." Mei's surprised expression flashed across her face. "But it's already dinnertime." Wait, it's already this late? Kiana was stunned, glancing out the window before realizing it was already night. She hadn't realized it was already this late. Even during 'practice,' she couldn't forget the time, really. Mei sighed. "Go back and eat, Himeko-sensei and Bronya are waiting." "Oh, okay, going home for dinner Mei made." Kiana stood up and stretched.

"See you next week." Kiana scratched her cheek. "Thank you for today...."
