Star Railway, starting as Kiana

But Gray Snake's next words made her jump right out of bed.

"Tenfold reward, and I'll also take care of the construction and decoration of the villa on the island you bought. It will be completed in one month."

"Deal! I, Raven, am utterly loyal to the organization. Wherever I'm needed, I'll go..."

Raven was still pledging her loyalty, but Gray Serpent never cared about such things. She sought out Raven partly to make her easier to control, and partly because she was the third Divine Key and the suitor for the Seven Thunders of Purification.

If what Cocolia said is true, then perhaps Raven will need to step in.

"Pack your weapons. You can come downstairs in five minutes. I'll be waiting for you downstairs."

Raven looked at the disconnected phone, opened the window and peeked out. There she saw Gray Snake, as usual, carrying the same suitcase and holding the same umbrella, just quietly watching her.

Let the raven's feathers fall.

"No way, are you crazy? You told me to come over, but you're right downstairs. Why did you even bother making the call?"

Kiana, however, was completely unaware of this and was still living a happy life surrounded by beautiful women at the academy.

But I don't know if it's because Wenziti joined Ba, but I've been waving my hand at something, and the spirit Asakura Yuki also appears in front of me from time to time.

As Fu Hua watched the increasing number of cute girls around Kiana, she recalled the task Otto had suddenly given her in the middle of the night the previous night.

She really wanted to rush to the headquarters of Destiny, kick the door of the bishop's office open, drag Otto out, give him a good pat on the head, and then follow up with a set of short-range blows to his head.

Otto's original words were: "Hey, my old friend, I heard that you've been very popular at St. Freya Academy lately, and you're always being asked questions when you're doing missions, which is quite annoying."

"Perfect timing! I have a task here that can perfectly solve your problem."

Fu Hua, who knew Otto's true nature well, sensed something was wrong when she heard Otto speak.

And that's exactly what happened.

“Go ahead, go date Kiana, then move into their apartment. Use your position to investigate the Third Herrscher, Raiden Mei, and the Fourth Herrscher, Wendy. If possible, Fu Hua, you can go even further and find out more about Kiana. You should know who I'm referring to, right?”

As if he had guessed that Fu Hua would be angry, Otto hung up the phone as soon as he finished speaking, without giving Fu Hua a chance to refuse.

"Sigh, even though it's just fake, how am I supposed to explain it!"

Life is tough, she sighed. She now envied Kiana. If their personalities were reversed, this mission would be a piece of cake.

Although if the tables had really turned, Otto would probably have been beaten up long ago.

Chapter 183 Could it be that Fu Hua is going to confess to me?

"Kiana, can you come outside with me for a moment? I have something I want to talk to you about."

Seeing Fu Hua's somewhat stiff expression, Kiana asked curiously, "Hey, what's wrong? Fu Hua, are you going to confess to me?"

As soon as Kiana finished speaking, she wanted to tease Fu Hua with a smile and find some amusement in Fu Hua.

But Fu Hua's expression became even more uneasy, and she showed no sign of refuting him.

Kiana:?

No, I just said it offhand. Fu Hua, are you serious?

The people around Kiana also looked at Fu Hua with somewhat strange expressions. They were now subtly restraining each other. Although they all had a good impression of Kiana, under the unspoken rules, none of them made the first move.

Unexpectedly, after Asakura Miyuki launched a surprise attack, today even Fu Hua, whose popularity rivals Kiana's, has come to the academy.

"Kiana, could you come outside with me for a moment? It's not convenient to talk here."

Looking at Fu Hua's expression, which seemed to say, "If you don't come with me, I'll give up all pride and fight you to the death,"...

Even though she felt the gazes of the people around her were as if they wanted to pierce through her, Kiana still nodded, got up, and followed Fu Hua to a secluded shady spot behind the teaching building.

"Kiana, will you go out with me?"

The opening lightning strike startled Kiana, who turned and tried to run away.

However, before Kiana could even start running, Fu Hua grabbed her, startling Kiana so much that she forgot she could use her spatial ability to jump.

"I'm sorry, I was too hasty and caused Kiana to misunderstand. Actually, it's like this..."

In Fu Hua's description, she mentioned that she has recently been encountering some enthusiastic fans who would pretend to bump into her from time to time, strike up a conversation, and even come close to her during training.

Sometimes I see them even during breaks after school, and it's seriously disrupting my life.

So she got advice from a "friend" to find a "peer" to pretend to date, which would make the other person give up.

Although Fu Hua was doing this for Otto's mission, every word of her story was true, because it was her own experience. She even described some things in a more subtle way because she didn't want Kiana to suspect that her classmate was a pervert.

"Hey, Fu Hua, you're so unlucky. Luckily, I've never met anyone like that."

Fu Hua is now genuinely envious of Kiana. They're both popular, so why is there such a huge difference in their treatment?

The character designs are different. Just like Cecilia, who was also a popular figure of her generation, she is more inclined to the princess and knight style. Her fans are people like Shigure Kira who support her silently from behind.

And Fu Hua? The "only male" at St. Freya Academy? Although that's a joke, Fu Hua is just too manly.

"But why are you looking for me?"

Kiana still didn't understand. She and Fu Hua had no interaction whatsoever, so how could this be her problem?

"Could it be Otto's doing?"

It has to be said that Kiana's intuition is sometimes really accurate.

But after hearing Fu Hua's explanation, she put the idea out of her mind again.

"Actually, I'm worried about the other person being retaliated against. After all, the classmates are too enthusiastic, and I'm worried that others will suffer from passive-aggressive behavior."

At this point, even if Fu Hua hadn't said anything, Kiana would have understood.

But she still switched into drama queen mode, "Waaaaah, I never thought Fu Hua would be this kind of person. Is it okay for other classmates to be subjected to the silent treatment, but it's okay for me to be subjected to the silent treatment? Waaaaah."

Fu Hua has lived for so long, and she's never seen anyone like Kiana before.

Already somewhat stubborn, and feeling guilty, he didn't notice that Kiana was faking tears.

He quickly took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped away non-existent tears from Kiana's eyes.

"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant. Kiana is important to me too. I just... I just..."

"Pfft!"

Seeing Fu Hua so flustered, Kiana felt that her acting hadn't been in vain, and she had secretly recorded the scene just now.

Whether it's used to blackmail Fu Hua later, or to deliver a critical blow to the Immortal Ship when we get back to the train, it seems like a good idea.

"Okay, just kidding. If that's the case, then it's possible, but how would we do it?"

"do not know."

Fu Hua spoke with such conviction that Kiana almost choked on her breath, looking at Fu Hua with a very strange expression.

Fu Hua said with great righteousness, "I have no experience, but I should start with the name, Kiana."

Fu Hua called out, but found that she didn't feel anything unusual as rumored.

She couldn't help but think to herself, "The description in the story was definitely too exaggerated. How could someone blush and become flustered just because of a form of address?"

Kiana suddenly felt playful and wanted to buff this old relic.

But looking at it this way, the strength seems a bit lacking?

Kiana then asked Fu Hua to wait a moment while she went to prepare.

Although Fu Hua was surprised—it was just a change of address and some preparations needed—it would be inappropriate to ask too many questions since she needed someone's help.

When Kiana returned after changing her clothes, Fu Hua was about to speak, but before she could utter a word, her eyes widened as she stared at Kiana's figure, seemingly petrified and unable to move.

Because she saw a figure that could absolutely not exist there.

"The End..."

Fu Hua finally understood why she felt a strange sense of familiarity when she saw Kiana, and why Kiana always made her wary.

Even if she wasn't the Second Herrscher, even if she was the Second Herrscher during the six-core era, as long as I gave it my all and burned my memories, it would be enough to disconnect her and the so-called Honkai Will through the network cable.

But the ending is different...

Looking at the figure before him, he was dressed in a formal yet somewhat dignified outfit, with a golden halo gleaming above his head.

Kiana also had a cute little tuft of hair sticking up on her head, but Fu Hua didn't find it cute at all; instead, she felt a chill run down her spine.

Upon seeing Kiana's cold, seemingly merciless golden eyes, Fu Hua tensed up and couldn't utter a single word.

Even if she burned most of her memories and forgot almost everything from the past, in the end, it would never be on her list of things to burn.

"Why did I forget?"

As she watched Kiana walk towards her, Fu Hua suddenly felt relieved. She had already tried her best. If ending it like this would expose Kiana's true identity as the End, then her value would be enough.

Just as she closed her eyes, intending to be erased by the end like her former comrades, she was about to die.

But Kiana didn't attack. Instead, she leaned close to his ear, blew a breath in a slightly teasing tone, and said, "Darling~"

Chapter 184! A ghost!

Looking at Kiana, who was facing him, and seeing her originally cold expression return to normal, Fu Hua's body relaxed, and her back was soaked with cold sweat.

What are you wearing?

Seeing Fu Hua's excitement, Kiana took out her phone and pointed to the order.

"I had someone customize it before." Kiana didn't say that the money came from Theresa's secret stash. She originally wanted to give a certain leader a critical hit. There was another set, but it wasn't for herself; it was for Mei.

"Then your eyes."

"Oh, you mean this?" Kiana took out her contact lenses, held them to her fingertips, and offered them to Fu Hua. "Contact lenses, Fu Hua, haven't you ever used them before?"

"What about this?"

Fu Hua pointed to the halo above Kiana's head, only to see that Kiana simply took it off, turned off the power, and revealed it to be just an electrified decoration.

Fu Hua is completely exasperated.

Seeing Fu Hua's exhausted state, Qi Yana didn't hesitate to pick her up and carry her towards the infirmary.

On the way, Kiana didn't try to avoid people, so many classmates noticed that she was carrying a classmate and couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, I'm so envious! Who fainted and was being carried by Kiana? I'm so jealous!"

Some observant people, noticing the unusual gray hair and modified school uniform that were so rare at St. Freya Academy, said with some uncertainty, "It looks like Fu Hua?"

"how is this possible?"

However, no one believed it until some people who knew Kiana went over to see what was going on.

They were all stunned when they saw Fu Hua, who was completely limp and soaked in sweat.

No one expected that after getting the reason from Kiana, they would freeze on the spot, unable to react for a moment, wondering what had happened.

So, on the school forum, the news that Fu Hua had fainted and was carried to the infirmary by Kiana became the hottest topic within just five minutes.

And here are Kiana's classmates, and with their vivid descriptions, combined with the accounts of the students who saw Fu Hua's situation earlier.

A new message appeared.

That is: Kiana is incredibly powerful. Even Fu Hua was powerless under Kiana's onslaught, collapsing into Kiana's arms like a little girl, and sweating profusely.

Actually, the original plan was to directly replace Kiana with Kallen's appearance and have a seductive version of a 500-year showdown.

But considering she didn't know if she'd even be able to use the outfit, and feeling like she was about to go back, Kiana put it on, adhering to the principle of not wasting anything.

Fortunately, Kiana didn't use Kallen's appearance, otherwise Otto, who had been spying on St. Freya Academy through surveillance and satellites after the group returned with Wendy, would probably have exploded.

What exactly is self-discipline?

And so, Fu Hua arrived at the Herrscher dormitory in the mist as she wished. Unfortunately, she hadn't been there for more than a few days when she heard some terrible news.

"Hey Kiana, are you leaving?"

"Kiana, are you leaving? Don't go! Isn't it nice here?"

...

When Kiana said she was leaving to go back and visit, everyone felt a little reluctant to see her go. Even Theresa put down her comic book and rushed over when she heard the news.

"No, my former companions are still waiting for me, but I will come back anytime in the future, after all, you are here too."

Kiana's words, though spoken from the heart, carried not a trace of malicious intent.

But it still made the group of them suddenly feel a little shy.

"Alright, alright, it's not like we're going to die. You haven't taken on any long-term missions yet, otherwise, separations of several months would be normal, especially with the Great Collapse outbreak. In other teams of Schicksal, it could be as long as half a year. It's getting late, go and get some rest."

Upon hearing Theresa's words, everyone assumed that Kiana had just received some kind of mission. Only after confirming that Kiana wasn't leaving and wouldn't return, and after receiving repeated assurances from Kiana, did they return to their rooms to rest.
