Collapse, the Ordinary Daily Life of the Valkyries

"The collapse has largely ended. Mandate of Heaven no longer needs to maintain the previous Valkyrie army and the massive military expenditures."

"Furthermore, the global concentration of Honkai energy is gradually decreasing because of Kiana. Most of the technologies that rely on Honkai energy will be almost obsolete."

"Now that Honkai energy has been sealed, there's no need for Sin Ming to maintain a large-scale Valkyrie army. Leaving behind a few elite teams to handle emergencies will be enough."

"Therefore, streamlining, disbanding, and reorganizing the Valkyrie Corps is a necessary possibility. We also need to send a friendly signal to countries around the world."

"This is the opinion on the formation of the New Destiny that I, Dr. Tesla, Dr. Einstein, and President Raiden Ryoma have come up with."

After Theresa sorted out Walter Yang's opinions, she looked towards the Valkyrie seat:

"So, does anyone else have any suggestions?"

Except for Seele who was away on a mission, all the main Valkyries of Destiny were here. Rita thought for a moment:

"I think we can combine the two suggestions, streamlining and reorganizing the Valkyrie Corps while maintaining the original structure of Mandate of Heaven and cooperating with countries around the world."

"Without shutting down research institutes around the world, we will collaborate with scientific groups around the world and build upon the existing structure of Heaven's Mandate to establish a new organization that transcends national boundaries, funding the reconstruction of various regions with Earth's defense as its primary purpose."

"We also have a space base on the surface of the moon. If what the captain said is true, we can even build a space exploration station on the edge of the asteroid belt."

"The purpose of this worldwide pilot project is to maintain permanent peace, but it also requires strengthening into a military organization with combat capabilities in the event of a major mutation."

Rita's suggestion hit the nail on the head. As the concentration of Honkai energy gradually decreases, the number and strength of Honkai beasts will only get lower and lower.

There is no need for Destiny to maintain a large number of Valkyries anymore. It is impossible for Herrschers to be born after the End, so the Valkyrie force needs to be streamlined.

However, not shutting down the research institute would allow humanity to accelerate the process of adapting to the collapse and embracing civilization:

"Any more?"

Theresa rubbed her tired head. All three suggestions were different from what she had expected.

The captain's advice was too hawkish, even during the Great Collapse, he made remarks like "We have the power of the Herrschers in our hands, why can't we integrate and unify the world?"

The suggestions of the Anti-Entropy people were too dovish, and only Rita's suggestion was slightly in line with her wishes.

Theresa's idea on this matter was very simple, which was to transform Tianming from a theocratic anti-Honkai military organization into a charitable organization that still retained a certain amount of anti-Honkai military power.

However, she overlooked one thing, that her destiny was not the Far East branch where she was, St. Freya Academy.

Theresa is now the Bishop of Destiny. The decisions she makes and any measures she implements can cause the current earth to fluctuate.

"Amber, whose plan do you think I should choose, or should I go with my own?"

In response to Theresa's question, Amber, who had served as the bishop's secretary at Tianming for many years, pushed her glasses.

"Miss Rita's plan is a more detailed version of your plan, Your Excellency. Moreover, since Lady Yulandel has no objection, it means that she also approves of this plan."

"Is that so? I see."

Theresa nodded, deciding to adopt Rita's opinion. She then handed the Captain and Anti-Entropy's suggestions back to them:

"Any further comments?"

The moment Gao Su received his opinion, he looked at Theresa and sighed helplessly:

"If that's the case, then let's do it this way. However, I have objections to the collapse."

"We are all vested interests in the collapse of society. Therefore, we can use advanced evolution to drive the subsequent evolution of humanity around the world, and ultimately achieve co-evolution."

"We have already achieved the first step of controlling Honkai. The next key step is adapting Honkai and distributing wealth."

"One point I want to emphasize here is that wealth here does not just refer to money, but also includes our technology, talents, advanced management ideas, and so on."

"If we can transfer this evolution and 'wealth' directly or indirectly to countries or regions, perhaps we can truly achieve 'advanced evolution driving subsequent evolution.'"

"The happy situation of "ultimately achieving co-evolution" is here, but the question is how to turn it around? How to lead it?"

"The first is that 'advanced evolution' is willing to drive 'latter evolution', and the second is that 'advanced evolution' is unwilling to drive 'latter evolution'."

Volume 1: Did we really defeat Honkai? Chapter 17: Please witness the memories of the past

"Have we won the war against Honkai? The answer is no. We have only gained a temporary peace."

Gao Su's next words caught everyone by surprise. Before anyone could react, the captain continued:

"We've always overlooked one point. Can immunity to Honkai really help us win against it?"

"It's like trying to make soldiers immune to bullets, but ignoring the simplest and most direct way to win the war."

"But, at the same time, the biggest problem we face is that we can't win the war, because not everyone is Kiana Kaslana."

Kiana, who was attending the meeting via video on the moon, was called by the captain. She scratched her head and thought that not everyone could replicate her situation, right?

"Oh, of course, maybe using Kiana isn't appropriate. Using Raiden Mei is also an option. After all, she also holds a stigma."

Mei looked at Gao Su and secretly complained in her heart, what is the captain doing? Why did he mention her and Kiana?

"Of course, at this time, we can let Bronya be the control group for comparison with them."

"Ok?"

Bronya looked at Gao Su. What was he doing? No, what did the captain mean by setting himself as the control group for Mei and Kiana?

"Unlike Kiana and Mei, Bronya's Herrscher core, oh no, should I say, the Herrscher of Reason core, is inherited."

Bronya looked at the captain in front of her, speaking eloquently, and fell into deep thought. Her thoughts gradually drifted away, and she began to recall the past, the days after defeating the Ruler of Law:

"Bronya, wake up, Bronya..."

In the boundless darkness, a gentle call sounded in Bronya's ears, but the noise made her just turn over.

Perhaps it was the aftereffect of the Ruler's power, but Bronya still couldn't open her eyelids.

"Rustling, rustling..."

However, just as Bronya was about to go back to sleep, she felt someone gently caressing her legs.

Bronya moved instantly, and the muscle reaction engraved in her body allowed her to take off her white stockings first, and then wrap the white stockings around the man's neck and face.

This is an assassination technique exclusive to the Ural Silver Wolf - stocking murder. Bronya once used this method to strangle thirteen senior officials.

"Let go! Bronya! It's me, let go! Cough cough cough..."

Smelling the citrus scent that filled his nose, Gao Su choked and slapped Bronya's hand that was still pulling hard on her stockings.

Taking care of the Herrscher is really too dangerous. However, compared to being pointed at by Kiana with a gun and held at knifepoint by Mei, Gao Su is even a little glad that Bronya didn't point the muzzle of the Heavy Usagi's gun at him.

"Eh!? Gao Su!? I'm sorry!"

Bronya woke up and released her hand that was holding her white stockings. Gao Su pulled the stockings off and handed them to Bronya:

"Ah, it's okay. I'm used to it. When I woke up Kiana, she pointed a gun at my head. When I woke up Mei, she held a knife to her neck."

"Perhaps, I should be thankful that you didn't choose to fire the heavily armored Bunny 19C at me."

Bronya sat on the bed and put her stockings back on her legs. Gao Su rubbed his nose, the citrus scent still lingering on his nose. He picked up a cup of tea and handed it to Bronya:

"Be careful, Bronya. I left some food for you."

Gao Su opened the imaginary wormhole and brought the food prepared for her from the kitchen. However, Bronya looked at him:

"I have the habit of drinking tea. I know tea can't disinfect. Let's change it. Vodka is good."

Listening to Bronya's words, Gao Su poured out the tea, then took out a glass of vodka and filled it for Bronya, handing it to her:

"ypa?"

"ypa!"

Bronya took the vodka from Gao Su's hand, shouted "Hurrah" after Gao Su, and drank it.

Then Bronya picked up a pickled cucumber, dipped it in some sturgeon caviar (икра остра), and put it in her mouth:

"crunch"

A crisp biting sound was heard, and the familiar fishy smell of sturgeon caviar and the aroma of pickled cucumbers blended together perfectly.

"Well!"

As soon as she took a sip, Bronya's eyes lit up. The sour pickled cucumber paired with the strong vodka was so refreshing.

“There are also картошка (chocolate jelly) and птичье молоко (meringue mousse)”

"Oládьи (Oládì) with two flavors, sweet and savory, and котлетапо-киевски (Kiev fried chicken with bread)!"

"You're not going to make all Siberian food, are you?"

I watched Gao Su bring out the dishes one by one, as if they were his own treasures, including the last large bread.

Bronya was a little stunned. These were the meals she could only eat during the Chinese New Year in the orphanage.

"No, I just don't know what you like to eat, so I have to make you something according to the flavor of your hometown."

Gao Su waved his hand, spread sturgeon caviar on the bread, then picked up a pickle and started eating.

Soon, the bottle of vodka was empty, and all the food fell into Bronya's stomach.

Although as a Valkyrie, eating too much is a taboo, but now, when my body is pressed against Gao Su, I feel really comfortable, warm and cozy, just right.

Moreover, being held by Gao Su and sitting in his arms is really comfortable and makes people feel safe.

There was a faint scent on him, which was... pleasant. The more she thought about it, the more her heartbeat became inexplicably disordered.

"Gao Su, there's an unknown reason why Bronnie's body temperature is rising. This feeling is so strange..."

"Be good, take a nap. Maybe you drank a little wine..."

Listening to Bronya's words, how could Gao Su not know that she had already stirred his feelings? His tone also softened, and he coaxed her softly.

"Then Bronya, if you sit like this, will you feel uncomfortable?"

Bronya snuggled into Gao Su's arms. It was so strange, why had Bronya's defense system been completely disarmed against him?

"Bronya's twintails are at your service, Captain. You can use Bronya's twintails as your reins!"

Gao Su pinched Bronya's small chin, lifted her face up and kissed her for a while, looking at her gently and dotingly with his usually indifferent eyes:

"You weigh as little as a cat, are you sure you want to discuss this with me? Or do you want me to watch you eat every meal and stuff you with half an extra bowl of rice every time?"

When Gao Su transformed into a man, he was about 1.9 meters tall, and his body already had the sturdiness and full strength of a mature man, so hugging her was indeed child's play.

Having said that, Bronya still wanted to get off Gao Su, she was still very embarrassed.

It's just... she was a little reluctant, but a shy smile had appeared on her lips without her knowing when.

Bronya looked at the man so close to her with misty and watery eyes. His slender and deep crystal purple eyes were tinged with the color of the starry sky. He was handsome and sexy to the extreme.

Perhaps, this is what is in the eye of the beholder? Bronya thought so, but then sighed.

Her delicate body pressed against Gao Su's broad chest. She lay on his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, her heart filled with sweetness and happiness.

Sleepiness came over her and she actually fell asleep. Gao Su felt her breathing become even and long. He sighed and hugged her tighter in his arms.

The scent of citrus wafting from her body filled her nostrils. This was also the first time that Bronya let someone hug her like this.

"Sister Bronya, your favorite Seele is here to see you. That guy Gao Su said he had food prepared for you in the kitchen, but I checked and there's nothing there! It's all lies!"

At this moment, Hei Xier's voice came in along with the knock on the door. Gao Su hugged Bronya and changed to a more comfortable position.

“Sister… why are you here, the guy who stole Seele and Onee-sama!? Huh!?”

Hei Xier pushed open the door and what came into view was Bronya lying in Gao Su's arms with a happy look on her face.

"I'll take care of Bronya. After all, her power was taken away by the Ruler, and she's not feeling well."

"Humph! Onee-sama can only belong to me, Xier!"

Hei Xier rolled her eyes at Gao Su. She was just a little angry. She even felt like the two cabbages she had grown for many years were being eaten by a pig.

"She is lying in my arms now..."

Gao Su lowered his upper body, stuck out his tongue and licked the side of Bronya's sleeping face, looking at Hei Xier as if showing off.

"You bastard! Get off my sister!"

Bloody claws instantly appeared behind Hei Xier. Gao Su's provocative actions and words really irritated her.

No matter how much Xier liked him, Hei Xier felt that he had to teach him a lesson. However, before the claws flew in front of Gao Su, Gao Su spoke:

"Are you going to wake Bronya? She just ate and drank her fill and fell asleep."

The claws were fixed in mid-air. Hei Xier stomped her feet angrily and retracted the claws.

"Do you have any manliness at all? You're threatening me with onee-sama!? If you dare to provoke me, you have the guts to put her down!"
