Star Railway, starting as Kiana

So, Raven watched as Kiana stretched out her hand, opened a golden passage leading to the imaginary space, and took out a bottle of icing sugar from it.

Then, Raven saw Kiana pour icing onto her lips.

Moreover, Kiana doesn't seem to intend to stop there. She slowly lifts her skirt, still holding the jar of icing in her hand, suggesting that these lips are not so simple.

The raven was nearly jolted awake from her dream, but the severe external injury from hitting her head on the "steel plate" prevented her from waking up immediately, so the dream continued.

"Hey, wasn't it supposed to be frosting poured on my lips?"

"Huh? What are you thinking? If the trial were that simple, wouldn't everyone be able to gain power?"

Raven seemed to agree with Kiana's reasoning, so she chose to participate in Trial One.

"She's clearly a cute girl, but isn't this sleeping position a bit strange?"

Looking at Raven, who was in a coma but kept sticking out her tongue to lick her lips and then sticking out her tongue forcefully, Alicia wondered if this executive of the World Serpent had suffered a serious head injury and had something wrong with his brain.

Kiana took out a chocolate bar and poked the raven's tongue. Meanwhile, Gretchen, who was looking for Kiana to go to her studio to paint, imitated Kiana's action, picked up a paintbrush, and prepared to attack the raven's tongue.

Chapter 385 The Herrscher of Corruption, Ling, Raven: My life is over.

"Little Gretchen, you can't do that."

Gretchen looked at Kiana, who was blocking her way, with some confusion, not understanding why this was not allowed.

"dirty!"

“It’s okay. Mother Aponia said that saliva can disinfect, so Raven’s tongue isn’t dirty.”

Raven had already woken up when Kiana poked her tongue with a chocolate bar, but the current situation was a bit awkward, so Raven, who was pretending to be dead, was completely stunned when she heard Gretchen's innocent words.

In other words, is it possible that the dirty part was the paintbrush that was stained with paint?

"Gresh, be good."

Kiana placed her hand on Gresh's head and patted it gently, saying earnestly, "Gresh is right, but we still shouldn't poke the raven's tongue with the paintbrush."

Greta looked like she understood, but she still nodded obediently.

However, in the next second, Gretchen came to Raven's side and stretched out her delicate, bare feet, which were not bound by shoes, and stepped on Raven's body.

"Humph!"

Raven couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, but Gretsch didn't seem to notice and continued stomping.

Before Kiana could even ask a question, Gretchen began explaining why she had done it.

“Alice said that it would feel very comfortable to have someone step on your back.”

But this is my belly!

Raven isn't some kind of Chinese tablet; it shouldn't be so confused about the front and back.

Fu Huahua: Achoo!

Perhaps feeling a bit tired, Gretchen soon got off the raven and looked at Kiana.

"Kiana, I'll be going now. Goodbye, Kiana."

Just as Raven was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Gretsch's next words, which made her wish she could just smash her head against the wall and die.

"Goodbye to the older sister who likes to pretend to be asleep and stick out her tongue."

Raven: So, it turns out I was discovered long ago for pretending to be asleep.

Unfortunately, all the facilities in the Paradise of the Past were constructed based on the memories of heroes, rather than being simple buildings.

Otherwise, the raven could have contributed a three-bedroom apartment to the Land of the Dead by now.

When Raven opened her eyes, she saw another hero appear before her, while Kiana had disappeared without her noticing.

Although the clothes Yingjie was wearing were different from what I remembered.

Moreover, even their temperaments are different.

But this appearance is clearly that of Sakura from the Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire.

"Hello, big sister, are you your friend?"

Looking at the face that clearly resembled Sakura, yet speaking such sweet and soft words in a gentle voice, Raven wondered if this was a dream.

Perhaps, he did not wake up after fainting.

"Big sister, are you not feeling well?"

Seeing the pair of fair and smooth arms reaching out to him, Raven jumped up from the bed.

"I'm fine. Who are you?"

"I'm your sister's younger sister. Hasn't your sister mentioned me to you?"

Seeing the sudden appearance of another figure before him, seemingly about to fall like a small pearl, Raven panicked.

But is the older sister you're talking about Sakura?

If Raven hadn't known what Sakura looked like, she probably would have been completely confused after hearing the word "Sakura".

But it's pretty much the same now.

"I've heard of you, I've heard of you, but this is the first time I've met you, and suddenly my memory goes blank, I can't remember."

Seeing the raven's flustered movements, "Sakura" finally stopped crying and smiled.

Smiling, she said to the raven, "Big sister is such a kind person. It's nice to meet you. My name is Ling, and you can call me Ling-chan, but I know she definitely hasn't mentioned me to you."

Raven was somewhat puzzled. Judging from Ling's tone, she and her sister Sakura should have a very close relationship. Raven wasn't curious as to why there were still non-heroic beings in the Paradise of the Past.

After all, there's the precedent of the armed doll Klein, and there are even rumors that there are fairy ladies in the Paradise of the Past, so isn't it normal to have a younger sister like Sakura?

As a result, Ling's next sentence, in the eternally spring-like space of the Paradise of the Past, made the raven feel a chill as if it were deep in the Siberian winter.

"Because Ling is the Herrscher of Corruption, an enemy of humanity, my sister definitely won't tell outsiders."

Raven looked up and realized that, without her noticing, the girl in front of her, who looked exactly like Sakura, was no longer the soft and sweet girl she once was.

Instead, she resembled a queen, her golden eyes seeming to gaze upon prey she could manipulate at will.

Raven hadn't experienced this life-or-death situation in a long time.

Her body tensed, and her hand reached for the dagger she carried behind her back.

"Alas, why did I come to this paradise for no reason? And this time I didn't even bring any weapons. I'm doomed!"

As soon as Raven finished thinking to himself, he wondered if he had just experienced this scene not long ago.

When the person in front of it laughed out loud, the raven's gaze became even more intense.

"Hahaha, Raven, you're really funny. Fine, I won't tease you anymore. I'll take you to fix your little island."

Seeing Kiana restored to her original form, Raven's mind went blank for a full half minute before she could figure out what was going on.

Before she could even speak, Kiana had already pulled her to the airspace above a certain sea area.

"ah!"

"It sounds like a girl's voice?"

"I want you to take care of it!"

Raven was genuinely angry now. Having been tricked time and time again, she wouldn't believe Kiana no matter what she said.

"What, don't you want to fix up your villa island anymore?"

Raven rolled her eyes at Kiana, clearly annoyed.

But I still looked down and found that this perspective seemed somewhat familiar.

Why does that dilapidated island below, which looks like a crater on the moon, look so familiar?

"Stop looking, that's your villa island."

Raven: ...

No wonder it looked so familiar; it turns out that this is exactly what the Grey Serpent photographed with a satellite.

"Waaah, my villa island."

The little raven was once again agonizing over the thought of the enormous sum of money needed to repair the island. He felt that he might as well spend some more money and buy a smaller villa island instead.

"So, do you need me to fix it for you?"

The raven wondered if it had misheard.

Raven had no doubt that Kiana would help her.

After all, in her opinion, Kiana is not short of money, at least not compared to herself.

So you said you'd help repair the island? Are you serious?

Looking at the island, which seemed to have turned back time and regained its former vitality, Raven felt that he must be dreaming.

Chapter 386 Raven: My villa island is back!

Finally, Kiana landed on the island with Raven. Raven seemed to wake up from a dream, experiencing the feeling of stepping on the ground and smelling the fresh air and flowers around her.

All of this tells her the truth.

What she was seeing now was not a scene from a dream.

Seemingly in order to get closer to nature, the raven took off the cloak that covered her large areas of skin and face.

Not feeling that was enough, he also took off his gauntlets and gloves and threw them directly onto the ground.

She wasn't satisfied with that, so she took off her ankle boots and left them on the ground.

As for that black bodysuit underneath, Raven probably would have taken it off if the conditions hadn't prevented it.

But for a mere black thread, it's just a drop in the ocean for a raven that can afford a villa island.

So she tore a slit in her stockings right up to her thigh.

With a tearing sound, she ripped open both of her stockings and threw them aside.

The raven walked barefoot on the ground, feeling the texture of the earth and the ticklish sensation from the grass.

This ordinary feeling, which can be experienced anytime, made the raven extremely excited.

Thinking that all of this was because of his great benefactor who had helped him return, Raven didn't hide his smile at all. He turned around, opened his arms, and was about to give Kiana a big hug.

Kiana did not dodge.

In such a joyful situation, it's best not to be mischievous.

Raven, who was initially overjoyed, started crying after hugging Kiana.

But there wasn't much sadness in those cries; rather, they were tears of joy.

"thanks, thanks!"

Kiana didn't say anything, but gently patted Raven's back, allowing her to vent her emotions.

After crying for several minutes, Raven, with red eyes, left Kiana's embrace.

Looking at Kiana's shoulder, at the corner of her clothes damp with her own tears, Raven's face flushed red, making her appear exceptionally vulnerable, especially with her eyes and rims reddened from crying.

Yes, even though she's a high-ranking member of World Serpent and one of the most famous mercenaries in North America, she's still just a young girl.

She just wanted to find a place to belong and live an ordinary life.

"Alright, alright, let's talk about compensation."

Kiana snapped her fingers, and a beautiful set of tables, chairs, and tableware appeared out of thin air on the previously empty land. Some food was placed in bowls and plates, and even next to it were several unlit red candles and an unopened bottle of red wine.

Raven remembered what she had said before, and suddenly her ears turned red. She became shy and bashful, much like a young girl in love. Every time she looked up and met Kiana's gaze, she couldn't help but avoid Kiana's eyes.

"Well, if it's you, then yes, that's fine."

As Raven spoke, his fingers moved as if he wanted to unbutton the last piece of leather clothing he was wearing.

This time it was Kiana's turn to be dumbfounded.

Wait, how did the art style suddenly veer this way? Did the raven also bewitch itself?

That shouldn't be the case. I've never heard of Ravens having a White-haired Special Attack attribute.

Kiana never imagined that her sudden change in attitude was all because of her intervention, which allowed Raven to regain the villa island she had been pursuing.

If this isn't a broken world, then Raven is like someone who has worked hard for a long time, diligently saving up funds, planning to buy their own little world, and then start living a retired life ahead of schedule.
