Chapter 329 Kiana's Harem

"Hmm... I haven't fully accepted my new identity yet... but if you really don't mind, I'd be happy to be your older sister."

Durandal said softly. Although she didn't know what Kiana was thinking, she could clearly see the unease and fear in Kiana's eyes.

She didn't know what kind of impact her new identity would have on Kiana, but she would definitely try her best to avoid any negative effects. Her past identity was no longer important to her; she just wanted to be herself now.

"Um... Durandal... thank you..."

Durandal was completely bewildered, wondering why Kiana was suddenly thanking her.

"It's that... I've remembered my past memories."

Kiana recalled her past memories. In reality, she had never forgotten these memories, but deep down she had been resisting them, which was why she couldn't remember them.

However, she no longer resists. After choosing to accept it, she can now clearly recall the scene when she, Siegfried, and Durandal were escaping from Schicksal headquarters by plane, and Durandal—no, Kiana—fell from the helicopter while trying to save her.

"If it weren't for you back then, I probably wouldn't be who I am today..."

After listening to Kiana's speech, Durandal remained silent for a moment before saying, "Well, to be honest, I still can't recall any memories of my childhood."

"So, even if you want to say that I saved you, I don't know what to say." Durandal paused, looking at Kiana's face, her heart inexplicably racing for some reason. "But... well, how should I put it, I think even now, I would still do it."

"After all, you... are now an indispensable member of my family."

"Family..."

Kiana blinked, then instinctively reached out and covered her chest, feeling the deafening thumping sound coming from there.

An unprecedented feeling welled up from my chest, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples that spread like waves.

A radiant smile bloomed on Kiana's face, like the rising sun.

She looked directly at Durandal's slightly awkward expression and said in a coquettish tone, "Then... let's get along well from now on."

"However—" Kiana suddenly stood up abruptly, clenching her fists and her eyes flashing with determination: "One day, I will definitely surpass you!"

"……Yeah."

Durandal gazed at Kiana's unwavering determination, and the image of Kiana as the Herrscher of Fire from her livestream subconsciously flashed through her mind. A smile involuntarily crept onto her lips as she said, "Then I'll be watching. I'll say it again: I'd love to be the older sister you can catch up to!"

"Hmph! Just you wait and see, I will definitely surpass you in the future!" Kiana said confidently, a happy smile on her face. "Once my strength has improved significantly, we'll team up with Auntie and Dad to go to Schicksal headquarters and settle the score with that scoundrel Otto!"

At this moment, Kiana has already planned out the future. After her family is reunited, they will go to the Schicksal headquarters to find Otto and settle all the old and new scores!

Even Jesus couldn't stop her! That's what she said!

Even if Otto possesses the Void Treasury and the Soul Steel Body, with her future strength and Durandal's power, there is absolutely no way she can escape!

"Otto..."

Upon hearing this, Durandal fell into deep thought.

Unlike Kiana, Durandal is naturally grateful to Otto, since he saved her and could be considered her teacher.

But from Kiana Kaslana's perspective, Otto was undoubtedly the culprit who caused her family's ruin.

However, the world is not black and white, and it is not appropriate for her to judge Otto.

However, as Kiana said, some things can no longer be ignored and must be faced with.

She needs to make a decision in front of Otto and them, as Kiana Kaslana, not as Durandal!

“You’re right, Kia.” Durandal nodded. “We’ll have to settle things with Otto sooner or later about this, so…”

"Our talk is almost over. For a better tomorrow, let's go to the training ground for a sparring session. Let your older sister see how good you are."

"Huh?! No, no, please! Ahh! Sister! Don't drag me to training without saying a word!"

"Can't the sisters relax a bit, eat something delicious, and play something fun when they meet?"

……

"Hmm? Headmaster, what are you looking at here?"

Fu Hua was on his way back to the dormitory when he saw Theresa sneakily stepping on Judas and standing on tiptoe to look through the window at the training room. He couldn't help but feel strange.

"Ugh!"

Hearing the sound behind her, Theresa was so startled that she lost her balance and fell backward, landing in a rather hard chest.

"You scared me to death! It was Fu Hua!" Theresa jumped out of Fu Hua's arms, straightened her nun's gown, and said in a serious tone, "Ahem, I was just inspecting the academy's environment, nothing much."

"...The way the headmaster inspects the academy is quite unique." Fu Hua didn't believe it at all and looked towards the training room.

"I seem to remember that Durandal and Kiana were training in the training room, right?"

She didn't quite understand. If Theresa wanted to see it, why didn't she just go in openly and honestly? Why was she being so secretive and sneaky?

However, Fu Hua didn't say anything, and after saying goodbye to Theresa, she went to take care of her own business.

Durandal and Siegfried spent a few days at St. Freya Academy, during which their familial bond deepened considerably.

Siegfried, of course, undoubtedly got punched by Kiana. Although Siegfried had explained to Kiana beforehand, he still had to vent his anger. This fulfilled her earlier wish to find her stinky father and beat him up.

Kiana also brought her companions, Lorraine, Mei, Bronya, and Nine Heavens, to meet her two relatives, Durandal and Siegfried.

When Siegfried saw Rowling, Mei, and Jiuxiao, he inexplicably gave Kiana a relieved smile. This smile confused Kiana, but only Rowling and Bronya noticed it, and neither of them could say anything about it.

After all, it was a rare day when Kiana was happy, and even Bronya, who always called Kiana "idiot," started calling her by her normal name, which was quite unusual.

Of course, happy days were few and far between. Siegfried used the Honkai Beast bloodline within him to fight Schicksal, so he returned to Anti-Entropy to recuperate three days later. Durandal also chose to leave after staying for a week and returned to Schicksal.

Chapter 330 The Seventh Singularity, A Journey Through a Parallel Universe

Although she knew Otto wasn't a good person, he was currently the only one capable of protecting or maintaining this world. Furthermore, the world bubble within her also needed his help, so she was unwilling to break ties with him so quickly. If she had a choice, she would choose to continue obeying Otto's orders.

Although she doesn't dislike her current life, and even longs for it, one thing is one thing. Even if she has no objection to her current life, it doesn't mean she can ignore Otto's deliberate manipulation of her life.

However, she is now a Valkyrie fighting for the world, a mature and rational warrior, no longer the child he saved back then.

Therefore, regarding Otto's revenge, she chose to wait until Kiana became stronger before dealing with it together.

Otto didn't say anything about Durandal's return, as if he had expected her to come back.

He now has more important things to do, which is to study the Cosmic Cube. After studying the Cosmic Cube for some time, he has gained a basic understanding of this treasure. The Cosmic Cube first of all possesses the endless energy that mankind has always dreamed of. It can be said to be more advanced and more stable than Honkai energy.

Moreover, endless energy is only the most basic ability of the Cosmic Cube. The Cosmic Cube is like the crystallization of the most essential spatial power of the universe. It can be said that mastering it means mastering the spatial power of the entire universe.

Unfortunately, in the following month of research, Otto had no way to deal with the Cosmic Cube and could only use it as an infinite energy source.

Otto felt as if someone didn't want him to master the Cosmic Cube. He guessed that the man in black robes must have tampered with the Cosmic Cube, preventing him from using it further.

Otto was helpless in this regard, since he didn't even know who the man in black was, so he had no way to deal with him and could only guard the treasure mountain without being able to enter.

[Video uploading in progress, video upload complete]

[A chat group for the movie viewing system has been generated, the live streaming room for the movie viewing has been opened, and invitations to characters are being sent.]

A month later, with Rowling's initiative, a new round of movie screenings began once again.

Xiao Shi: "Why is it this weird movie-watching livestream again? They've dragged me into this dark room again. I'm really angry this time. Don't let me find out who made this thing, or I'll make sure they learn their lesson!"

I shut her down during the last movie-watching livestream, and now she's doing it again? Does she really think her great Herrscher of Knowledge is easy to bully? Don't let her find out who it is, or she'll make her pay!

Fu Hua: "Alright, Xiao Shi, you're just locked up for a bit. You'll be released after you finish watching the video, okay?"

Xiao Shi: "Old fogey, I'm not a child! I don't need your comforting!"

Hu Tao: "We've got work! We've got work!! The live stream is starting again. How come I didn't think of that before? The Emperor has passed away, and the Rebirth Hall is having a discount. The second stele is half price. The Emperor used it and everyone said it was great. The Rebirth Hall's big sale has started. Zhongli, you should help out too. Quickly, repeat after me!"

Zhongli: "...Okay, Hall Master, the second stele is half price, Your Majesty...Hall Master, I feel I'm not suited for this job."

Zhongli felt that if he kept shouting, he would probably die.

Yan Fei: "Seven Stars are really something. They made such a big fuss when they invited the immortals, but why didn't they make a sound when they sent them off?"

Kiana: "Is there any expert who can explain what this 'Please send the celestial ceremony' means?"

Hu Tao: "You've come to the right person! Every immortal departs with a grand ceremony, known as the Farewell Ceremony. It's a tradition of Liyue, but because of the great impact of the Emperor's passing and the awakening of the Vortex Demon God, we couldn't even attend to the Seven Stars. After the immortals finished dealing with their affairs, they left again. With the subsequent handling of the matter, the Farewell Ceremony was not successfully held."

Just like the original story, since the main battlefield of the live stream is not on the Teyvat continent, Zhongli still chose to retire. Of course, Ying, the unlucky guy, was also regarded as a suspect in the assassination of the Emperor. However, after helping Liyue defeat the Vortex Demon God, she became a VIP.

Kiana: "That sounds amazing."

Hu Tao: "Of course, it's time for me, the Hall Master, to take charge. With me, Hu Tao, there's no funeral I can't handle. Seven Stars can come to our Hall of Rebirth right now. As long as Lord Ningguang has enough Mora, I guarantee that Lord Rock King will leave in style."

Ke Qing: "Wait a minute, Hu Tao, are you sure you're old and experienced enough to preside over a ceremony to send off immortals?"

After all, this wasn't the first time she had heard Qianyanjun report on matters concerning Master Hu.

Ke Qing greatly admired the efforts of this quirky girl.

However, at a very young age, he took up the mantle of the funeral hall and even presided over his grandfather's funeral when he was very young.

He is both the head of the Hall of Rebirth and a "famous" doggerel poet in Liyue, who can come up with whimsical ideas anytime, anywhere.

"Big Qiuqiu got sick, Second Qiuqiu went to see him, Third Qiuqiu bought medicine, Qiuqiu brewed it, Fifth Qiuqiu died mysteriously, Sixth Qiuqiu carried him, Seventh Qiuqiu dug a hole with his head down, Eighth Qiuqiu came to bury him..."

The "Hillbilly Ballad," beloved by the children of Liyue, is so popular that Keqing can recite it from memory.

However, Keqing still harbored doubts about whether he was truly capable of perfectly organizing the Sending-Off Ceremony for the Emperor.

It's not that I doubt Hu Tao's abilities, but Hu Tao always has all sorts of ingenious ideas. What is originally a solemn and heavy funeral can always be transformed in her hands into various new tricks that satisfy customers and adapt to the times.

Hu Tao: "Although this hall master is incredibly powerful, it is indeed difficult to organize a ceremony to invite the immortals. Putting aside everything else, the exorbitant cost of purchasing materials is something that the Rebirth Hall cannot afford."

Xingqiu: "Since this concerns the Emperor, the expenses incurred by the Rebirth Hall in this matter can be covered by the Flying Cloud Merchant Guild."

Kiana: "Wow, another rich person. Is Liyue such a place full of hidden talents?"

Mei: "Xingqiu usually speaks with a scholarly air, so I guess he's some young master from a wealthy family. I just didn't expect him to be so rich."

Venti: "After all, Liyue Harbor is the most prosperous port in all of Teyvat, and it's also the only manufacturing point for the unified currency, Mora. It's hard for it not to be prosperous."

Seeing Zhongli choose to fake his death and escape, Wendy couldn't help but feel a little envious. After all, ever since his identity as the Wind God was exposed, Mondstadt has been searching for him everywhere. He even needs to change his identity to buy a bottle of wine.

Hu Tao: "Then it's settled. Young Master Xingqiu, the Rebirth Hall will handle the Emperor's funeral arrangements, and the Flying Cloud Merchant Guild will cover the bill."
