Honkai Impact 3rd is not considered a small opening

As for how Blanca and An Yu met... she couldn't be bothered to ask such trivial matters; she needed to find An Yu.

Otherwise, given the other party's exceptional physical strength, they would be too coveted.

Not everyone is as calm as she is.

She glanced at Blanca's phone one last time, and An Yu's unwavering determination in leading the weighted cross-country race made her pause for a moment.

Come to think of it, it seems she hadn't considered this possibility.

After all, An Yu is really too unconventional.

It's hard to imagine him adapting to the military atmosphere.

Speaking of which, An Yu's direct superior is Himiko, right? I heard she's a very easy person to talk to.

“I disagree, Dr. Mebius. I don’t know what you’re worried about, but An Yu really enjoys his life now, and he’s integrated into the military atmosphere.”

“I can even assure you that An Yu will be able to sit in my position in the future.”

Good talents emerge every year, but a monster like An Yu is a once-in-a-century occurrence.

"He is my younger brother."

"You are just his sworn sister, or rather, his adoptive mother."

Mebius stared at Himiko, then suddenly chuckled, "Sorry, I wasn't asking for your permission."

"Doctor, you are very talented, but this is the military." Himiko remained calm and even had the leisure to push over the coffee she had made herself.

Anyway, An Yu signed up herself, and she believed that after half a year, An Yu would definitely like it here, and it wouldn't matter if she went home to visit.

Heh, Mebius coldly blocked the coffee.

“He is a minor, which is why I said I didn’t ask for your consent; I was just informing you.”

“He is not yet 16 years old, which is below the minimum standard.”

Himihu:?

Chapter 14: Fourteen Loses Himself Amidst the Repeated Calls of "Sister Mei"

He's a minor, and to be fair, that's a valid reason, because he's still just a child...

Ahem, minors are protected by law, which is the T0 version in about 70% of the world.

Himiko opened her mouth several times but couldn't think of any reason to refute it.

"Is he really a minor?"

"I have no reason to lie to you about something like this."

Himihu:…

"He's a minor, let him register!"

Are you his sister? Oh, no, you're not. Your hair color is different. I heard she was adopted.

"He's a minor, and I'm busy with work. How am I supposed to know what he's up to?"

Himihu:…

The other party's counter-question was reasonable, after all, Mebius's work ethic was widely recognized as top-notch, which just made Himiko feel a little depressed.

An Yu is a really good prospect. She has great talent and lots of energy. She's a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur) but obedient. She always has the mentality of "I am number one, I must be number one".

Himiko truly appreciated the other party's willingness to work hard.

But the other party is a minor...

"Your sister is really negligent." I originally wanted to try again, but judging from Mebius's expression, An Yu probably won't come to the army.

"You don't need to worry about it."

Mebius casually uttered a remark and prepared to leave.

I wonder if An Yu will be angry, since that child seems to really enjoy her current life.

Waiting at the gate, seeing An Yu's bewildered yet joyful expression, Mebius realized she had been overthinking things; she seemed to have never seen the other woman angry before.

"I thought you'd forgotten me, Sister Mei, since you haven't sent me a single message in all these days."

Sigh, An Yu pretended to be sad, but he couldn't keep up the act for long. However, the army was really good. He wondered if it was because of the training methods, but he could feel himself improving every day.

That's so cool.

"Oh." With that same expression that revealed neither joy nor sorrow, Mebius crossed his arms and ended his feigned sleep.

"You've stopped updating your novel."

"what!"

That makes sense, since the phone was confiscated yesterday and there was no update.

An Yu immediately abandoned her plan to fool around with Mebius and went online to post her draft.

"By the way, Sister Mei, did you lie about my age? Why did the class monitor say I was a minor?"

An Yu is indeed young, but she is definitely over 16 and eligible to join the army.

"Go home. Sixteen is just the minimum age. The army of the Moths of Fire usually only allows you to join after you come of age."

She didn't answer the question directly because she had handled all of An Yu's documents, so she had underreported the number of months she had registered.

reason?

An Yu is too disruptive; being a minor, he can be granted a great deal of exemption.

"Yeah, the military is really amazing. I never got this feeling from the TV dramas I watched before."

"And the food is pretty good, definitely better than instant noodles. Speaking of which, Sister Mei, you weren't eating instant noodles every day while I was gone, were you?"

Möbius: ...

"No, that's not right. Blanca will definitely order takeout, and knowing her personality, she'll definitely bring you food."

"Ugh, damn it, I want to be a kept man too."

Möbius: ...

It's probably because we haven't seen each other for a few days; An Yu talks a lot... a lot.

Mebius had been listening to the other person ramble on all the way, and her head was spinning, but the repeated calls of "Sister Mebius" always managed to calm her down when she couldn't hold back anymore.

"By the way, how do you know Blanca?"

As he neared home, Möbius felt his head buzzing, and it wasn't until now that he remembered this question.

An Yu's past is a mystery, even leading Möbius to suspect that she was a time traveler.

But that's impossible, because An Yu does indeed have the currency of this world.

Therefore, An Yu's every interpersonal relationship is something that makes her particularly curious.

"Because of a certain evil doctor."

Mebius was stunned for a moment. The child with abnormally exaggerated physical strength from time to time, a certain evil doctor, plus the gentle assistant Blanca who was currently unemployed.

To be honest, this template looks familiar.

"Who? Or did you and Blanca kill them together?"

Frankly, it's quite absurd that Blanca would agree to work for him. Möbius had already decided to do the job himself, hiring a few college graduates each year to make do.

A question mark slowly appeared above An Yu's head. Looking at Sister Mei, whose expression was quite serious, he nodded earnestly and solemnly.

"Yes, to be honest, I was actually an experiment of some evil doctor. Luckily, I met the kind-hearted Sister Blanca, who couldn't bear to see the abuse I was suffering, and secretly released me."

"Later, the two of us conspired to kill the evil doctor. I thought my life was coming to an end, so I left my gentle sister Blanca and wandered around."

"Sigh, thinking back to that time still makes me subconsciously a little scared."

Under Mebius's somewhat helpless gaze, An Yu spoke nonsense with a straight face.

“Blanca’s background is verifiable, and she’s not much older than you.” If Blanca weren’t part of the story, Mebius might have believed it to some extent, given An Yu’s rather strange circumstances.

An Yu pondered for a moment: "Perhaps she is a genius who was forced to work by the evil doctor in high school and, because of her young age, did not know how to use the power of the law to protect herself."

The problem was patched up instantly. An Yu moved closer to Mebius and spoke quickly with a serious expression.

"...Oh, that's pretty impressive."

"Okay, okay, I ran into it when you told me to play by myself before."

"Brother Hen and Alicia were also there at the time."

"They are all very capable people, but I heard that Brother Hen is not as good as Himiko in the army, and was even beaten up by her."

"Speaking of which, I don't know when Alicia will arrive. She's a very mysterious and strong person."

Just how powerful is it?

Well, according to information on short video platforms, she is already a Herrscher, the Origin Herrscher, the Herrscher of Man, and it seems she is also a dual Herrscher.

Moreover, the opponent was a Herrscher from the beginning... but judging from Wendy's performance, it's hard to say how powerful she is.

“Mysterious?” For Mebius, mystery was simply because she had not yet unveiled the other party’s secrets; she lacked reverence for the unknown and death.

The good news is that she respects life.

"Do you believe in gravity, Sister Mei?"

Gravity is the most universal force in nature, relating the distance between any two objects or particles to the product of their masses.

"Do you think I believe it or not?"

An Yu: ...

"After hearing your answer, I think I understand what the division between arts and sciences is."

"A woman without romance is really boring."

Möbius: ...

"I believe in gravity. Just like how I, who was homeless, met Sister Mei, who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, I would rather call it a choice of fate than a coincidence."

Chapter 15: Do you know the Fifteen Law Masters?

"Fate brought me to Sister Mei. Perhaps it was by chance, or perhaps it was inevitable. But after the test of time, I prefer to see it as an inevitable event."

Möbius: ...

"The test of time you mentioned is only 15 days."

It's not even close, because An Yu went to the military base in three days and hasn't been in contact with the outside world all day.

To say that the two were very close would indeed be absurd, but when she came to the Fire Moth before, when she decided to bring An Yu along, Mebius had already regarded An Yu as family.

Fate is truly wondrous.

"But 15 days is already the life of a cicada. Never mind, you probably don't understand what I mean, you heartless science student."

"By the way, Sister Mei, are you hungry now?"

Carrying her luggage, An Yu didn't continue with the things that Möbius found extremely boring. Instead, she changed the subject to reality.

"I'm hungry, I haven't eaten yet because I was picking you up."

"Hmm, I'm a little touched. Sister Mei, you didn't even have three minutes to eat instant noodles."

Mebius is an oddball. She likes to eat instant noodles, but she eats them very quickly, always giving An Yu the impression that she's in a hurry. But Mebius really just likes to eat instant noodles.

"Eating out?"

"Okay...sigh, I was planning to show you some dishes that I learned through meditation."

"You know what, Sister Mei, I've recently discovered that stewed beef with potatoes tastes quite delicious when cooked for a longer time in the army. But you have to make sure the potatoes are tender but not mushy."

"It will take a while, but I'll make sure you get some time to try it tomorrow."

"Not only is there beef stew with potatoes, but also..."

I don't know how long we walked. Even though there were only a few minutes left, Mebius was feeling dizzy from listening to all that.

Is An Yu's mouth dry?

She didn't dislike or enjoy it when others shared things with her, since no one had ever done it before, and she didn't care.

But now Mebius suddenly realizes that it's better not to share.
