Collapse, women's clothing strategy Qiyana, then

She gritted her teeth and suddenly stood up!

Bai Yan was startled by her sudden movement and stared blankly at the blonde Valkyrie.

Durandal stepped forward, her face very close, and she could even hear Bai Yan's slightly disordered breathing.

then.

She straddled Bai Yan's lap, placed her hands on his shoulders, and stared at him intently with a flushed face.

Bai Yan was stunned.

Is this Durandal?!

Who is it? Who exactly possessed her?

After a long silence, Bai Yan came to his senses and forced himself to calm down.

I've calmed down, but precisely because I'm calm, my sense of touch has become even more acute.

Although Durandal's legs have undergone long-term training, they still maintain a beautiful curve, which is obviously not just simple strength training, but also includes corresponding body shaping exercises.

It's neither too soft nor too hard, with just the right amount of elasticity, and full of youthful vitality.

It also possesses a healthy aesthetic.

Bai Yan twitched his index finger violently, but ultimately gave up.

He swallowed hard, his lips twitching slightly. "Bianca, who taught you this?"

Seeing that Bai Yan made no further move, Durandal breathed a slight sigh of relief, but deep down she also felt a sense of boredom.

Things have become quite ordinary.

"Rita said that you actually really like... that kind of..."

She had originally intended to relay some of Rita's previous words, but the moment she spoke, she felt it was inappropriate, and her speech became increasingly unclear.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yan first severely criticized Rita for leading Bianca astray in his heart, and then secretly decided to find a way to give Rita more gifts in the future.

Durandal stammered, her body stiffening as if she realized the seriousness of her actions.

She wanted to get down.

but.

A smile appeared on Bai Yan's lips as he reached out, wrapped his arm around Yulandel's waist, and pulled her close.

"Uh!"

Durandal's eyes widened, never expecting things to turn out this way.

—Didn't Rita say that Bai Yan is actually very timid and doesn't dare to do anything?

At this moment, the "timid" Bai Yan was already pressed chest to chest with her, their breaths spraying each other's faces.

Durandal's face turned even redder.

Although Bai Yan wasn't much better off, after all, this was the first time he had done something like this to Durandal.

"Don't believe what others say, believe what you see yourself."

Then, Bai Yan used some force to put Yulandel down, and then stood up himself.

The two remained close together.

At this moment, Bai Yan was two centimeters taller than Youlandail, and if he continued to grow, he would eventually far surpass her.

"The last incident was mainly due to the Herrscher of the Void's abilities, which forced me into a one-on-one duel in the Imaginary Space."

Upon hearing this, Durandal looked up abruptly, her eyes regaining their clarity, but her emotions were even more intense than during the previous ambiguous moment.

Bai Yan looked into her eyes earnestly and said, "I'm willing to fight alongside you. Are you at ease now?"

Suddenly, Durandal abruptly released him and turned her back to him.

She transformed back into the Yulandel that Bai Yan knew.

A moment later, she turned around again.

Her face no longer blushed, and her breathing was no longer disordered.

"Then it's settled."

"Ah."

Durandal smiled, then her expression softened.

"Rita seems to know a lot about your hobbies?" she asked casually.

Bai Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he subtly sized up the other party.

Her expression was very serious at the moment, just like usual, without anything unusual.

“After all, she’s my boss, and we’ve worked together for quite a while,” Bai Yan carefully chose her words. “You know, she happens to be that type herself, so of course she would say that.”

"So, you don't actually like it?"

Bai Yan actually wanted to say that although he was a picky eater, fate had him eating a Manchu Han Imperial Feast.

So he said, "If it's you, I'll like you whether you take the initiative or not."

Durandal's body trembled slightly, but then everything returned to normal.

"Then, I'm relieved..."

The two were silent for a while, and Bai Yan tried to reach out and touch her wavy hair, which she did not object to.

Seemingly feeling that there was still plenty of time, Durandal changed the subject.

"What exactly was the plan you discussed with the bishop today?"

"Let's sit down and talk about this."

"it is good."

The two sat back down, and the atmosphere seemed to have lessened the barriers created by time compared to before.

"This plan is crucial to defeating the Honkai. Do you believe me when I say that?"

Durandal nodded: "I believe you."

“But in fact, Otto—come on, put your legs on my lap. You just finished working out, let me relax your muscles.”

"it is good."

A beautifully curved and powerful thigh was placed there.

Bai Yan paused slightly, then calmly began the massage.

Although this was actually a bit excessive, the two of them tacitly maintained a calm expression.

His technique is skillful and controlled, with the pressure frequency matching the rhythm of the blood vessels, making it irresistible.

Soon, Durandal leaned back slightly in her chair, her eyes half-closed, like a cat basking in the sun.

That kind of heartfelt satisfaction—just like Bai Yan is now.

These legs feel so good, Bai Yan has an urge to play them all night.

In the past, I was just an ordinary person, and I didn't even have the stamina to stay up all night.

But now, let alone staying up all night, even three days and three nights is no problem!

calm down.

I composed myself slightly; the conversation was about to continue.

"In fact, our bishop has other purposes."

"Some other purpose?" Durandal opened her eyes.

Bai Yan's technique was already a bit excessive. Although the raindrops were evenly applied to the entire thigh, the lower limit was from the sole of the foot to the root...

The silly goose had no objections and simply enjoyed it.

"He had a great regret in his life, which caused him to linger in the human world for more than 500 years; and the only thing that can fulfill his wish is the power of the Herrscher of the Void."

"Why the Herrscher of the Void?"

"Because he wants to reverse time and change a certain established fact from the past."

Durandal was completely energized.

What does he want to change?

She's now in a state where she believes whatever Bai Yan says.

They didn't even think about questioning it.

If his goal is to change the past, then it will definitely have an impact on the present, and Durandal is worried about whether this impact will be good or bad.

"I don't know," Bai Yan lied, "but I think it's a good thing."

"...I often don't understand your roundabout way of speaking. Can't you just be more direct?"

"To put it simply, between his Herrscher persona and Kiana Kaslana, he actually supports the human side. Because only a human Herrscher can help him achieve his wish."

"I still don't understand!"

"Think about it this way: the Herrscher of the Void was revived by him injecting Honkai energy, and the real culprit behind the death of Kiana's best friend Bai Yan is actually the bishop."

"These hatreds combined with a sense of righteousness were enough to make Kiana want to eliminate him."

"According to the bishop's thinking, when love and hate resonate simultaneously, the Herrscher will unleash earth-shattering power. And he happens to need this power to be used directly against him, thus using the opponent's strength against him."

"This step is the most crucial to achieving time reversal."

After listening, Durandal pondered for a moment and roughly understood the meaning of the plan.

This method is used to induce Kiana to use her full strength, in order to reach a certain limit of the Herrscher of the Void's power, so that she can get what she wants.

But soon, her expression turned sour.

"So, Bai Yan, you actually knew that the culprit behind your near-death experience was also the bishop?"

“I knew it from the moment I accepted this task.”

"..."

"Don't look at me like that. I do have a grudge against the bishop, but in this plan, he will eventually be destroyed."

"Debts are settled with the dead, and besides, his plan just happens to align with the path to defeating the Honkai. There's no need to dwell on these personal grudges anymore."

"..."

After Bai Yan completely disappeared, Durandal questioned Otto more than once.

The answer he received was that Otto said he could have used his Soul Steel body to transform into Bai Yan's appearance to do it, but Bai Yan herself wanted to go, so he couldn't do anything about it.

Durandal does not accept this explanation.

She once considered breaking ties with the other party, but whenever she thought of her destiny and her mission, she gave up on that choice and continued to desperately eliminate Honkai Beasts around the world in order to forget about them.

In her view, these were all Otto's excuses, and Bai Yan was being sacrificed as a pawn.

Only now, after Bai Yan explained his point of view, did Durandal feel somewhat relieved.

Bai Yan stopped enjoying the massage and said, "Come on, let's switch to the other leg."

Durandal has been given a different leg.

"Bianca, what do you think of Kiana Kaslana?"

Upon hearing this question, Durandal was puzzled: Shouldn't this be the question she asked Bai Yan?

But since Bai Yan asked, she would of course answer seriously.

"The one who wanted to kill you was the Herrscher of the Void, and although I don't particularly like Kiana, she was also a victim and shouldn't have to bear these sins."

"I see... So, have you ever explored the reason why you are so talented?"

Durandal never explored this point; her mind was usually preoccupied with important matters, and she rarely liked to delve into personal issues.

Otto thought so highly of this student that he gave her the best Rita as her partner, which shows that he had put a lot of effort into nurturing her.

But precisely because of this, after Rita took care of most of the trivial matters for her, she no longer had the desire to explore further and lived a fulfilling life every day.
