Honkai Impact 3rd, Paradise Typewriter isn't for making this kind of game.

You try calling out to the fairy Ellie, but there's no response. Having no other option, you leave the room.

The layout of the building is relatively easy to remember.

Xia Yuan's room is on the second floor. Next to his room is Gretchen's room. Not only is there a soft carpet at the door, but there is also a sign with the word "Stars" on the door.

Clearly, little Gretchen has her own little room, so why is there a small bed in it? Whether it was Aponia's mother's idea or little Gretchen's own wish remains unknown.

"Little Grey is so cute."

Xia Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

You discover another room in the second-floor corridor; that must be the room where Aponia prays. Clearly, Aponia's room is the size of the two smaller rooms combined.

You walk down the corridor and carefully tap along the walls. You notice a sound that's different from the others. Perhaps there's a hidden room inside Aponia's room?

You stopped having increasingly bold ideas.

The entire hallway has wooden floors; you can imagine Gretchen's room must be covered in all sorts of graffiti, right? You daydream to yourself... A classic vintage-style little house.

To avoid worrying Aponia, you went down the stairs.

Aponia was carefully preparing breakfast in the kitchen. When she saw Xia Yuan get up, Gretchen pointed to the seat opposite her with her bare little feet. Clearly, Gretchen really didn't have any hands free at the moment.

"Brother Xia Yuan, come sit down and eat. Mom Aponia has already packed your schoolbag, so you can just take it with you when it's time to eat."

Seeing how adorable Gretchen was, Xia Yuan couldn't help but ruffle her hair, and she snuggled against him affectionately.

Seeing how adorable little Gretchen was, Xia Yuan gently poked her cheek with his finger.

"Brother Xia Yuan, please don't do this, it's a little itchy."

Gretchen shook her little head like a hedgehog, trying to break free from Xia Yuan's hand, but she didn't succeed. Hearing Gretchen's words, Xia Yuan stopped what he was doing and returned to his seat to wait for breakfast.

After a while, little Greta spoke, slightly out of breath:

"Brother Xia Yuan, you must get along well with your classmates. Don't deliberately lift up girls' skirts. The only girl who can make Brother Xia Yuan lift up his skirt is Gretsch!"

"????"

Xia Yuan was filled with questions. Who exactly had led little Gretchen astray?

"I would never do something like that! If I did, the Valkyries of Destiny would probably mistake me for a gentleman and kidnap me immediately!!!"

Xia Yuan almost choked on Little Gretchen's words.

"Brother Xia Yuan is making excuses again... He clearly likes to stare at my feet when he's at home, doesn't he?"

Gretchen delivered the finishing blow at the opportune moment.

"Well, um... yes, it's because I have a problem with my cervical spine; it hurts when I look up."

"Should we find a doctor for Brother Xia Yuan?"

"No need, no need, it will heal on its own in a few days."

Xia Yuan quickly waved his hand; he didn't want to have his leg broken and have to see an orthopedic doctor too soon.

Aponia brought breakfast, and breakfast time passed in laughter and cheerful conversation. Just as Xia Yuan was about to pick up his schoolbag and reminisce about his school days, Gretchen called out to him.

"Brother Xia Yuan, this painting is for you. It's a gift that Gretsch specially prepared for you."

"Huh? What's this?"

Little Greta handed Xia Yuan a sketchbook. Xia Yuan took it and looked at it carefully. The sketchbook contained a portrait of Little Greta and himself. In the picture, he was holding Little Greta's hand and gazing at the sunset in the distance.

"Brother Xia Yuan, you mustn't get to know any shady women at school, otherwise Gretchen will absolutely not agree to you being with her."

Little Gretchen is asserting her sovereignty.

Xia Yuan glanced at Little Gretchen beside him; the latter's expression was very determined.

"Hmm? What's wrong? Is there a problem with Brother Xia Yuan?!"

Little Greta stood on her hips, tiptoeing, and questioned Xia Yuan like an adult.

"No, no, thank you little Greta, I'll keep it safe~"

Xia Yuan smiled and patted Gretsch's little head. After saying goodbye to little Gretsch and Aponia, Xia Yuan headed to the campus life he had always dreamed of.

"Be careful on the road."

Aponia's mother was praying silently behind Xia Yuan.

"I will."

Leaving home, Xia Yuan began to observe his surroundings. He wasn't completely immersed in the wonderful life with Little Gretsch and Aponia; the brief yet profound experience from before lingered in his mind.

Kiana, Bronya, and Aunt Mei were also teleported into the instance by the Paradise Typewriter.

Most importantly, he has to be constantly on guard against Bronya, and in order to prevent her from catching him, he is forced to wear a skirt to save the game studio from bankruptcy.

He looked around and found that Bronya was not nearby.

The street was still bustling with people, creating a lively atmosphere, which finally put Xia Yuan at ease.

At this point, Xia Yuan realized a problem: he didn't know the exact location of the school.

You asked a passerby for directions to the school, and the young woman there gave you the answer.

Even on the road, you didn't stop thinking.

My goals for this game are twofold: first, to avoid Bronya; and second, to experience as much of the wonderful school life as possible.

Chapter 289 Aunt Mei's Teasing

Just then, a faint sound, like a school bell, drifted into Xia Yuan's ears from afar.

Is it too late to make it this way?

"It seems like I can take a taxi directly to the school from here. The travel time should be about the same. Should we go over there and take a look?"

Having made up his mind, Xia Yuan immediately took action.

He flagged down a taxi, but all of them were already full.

Xia Yuan sighed helplessly. Just then, the sound of a motorcycle horn rang out from behind, accompanied by a warm voice.

"Xia Yuan, you seem to be going to be late. Would you like your music teacher to give you a ride?"

The appearance of Eden undoubtedly solved Xia Yuan's urgent problem.

You sat behind Eden, whose wine-red hair exuded a distinctly sweet perfume scent, but Eden's high-speed driving seemed somewhat incongruous with her image.

[At 200 km/h, you clung tightly to Eden, the other car's speed reminding you of the fear of being taken shopping by Bronya.]

With Eden's help, you quickly arrived at school.

Your legs trembled slightly, and you vowed never to ride in Eden's snowmobile again.

You glanced at the enormous clock on the college wall and arrived at the classroom just in time for your scheduled class.

You sit in the second-to-last row by the window. Your classmates are gossiping about urban legends and the seven most unbelievable events in the school, and you listen with interest to their chatter.

Just then, you felt a heavy pat on your back.

"Kiana...?"

Xia Yuan turned around and found that it was Kiana who had spoken to him. Her seat looked to be in the last row behind him. Hmm... it really was the seat reserved for that idiot bug.

"Hey, Xia Yuan, I've finally found you. Do you know how long I've been looking for you in this unfamiliar place?"

Xia Yuan did not respond to Kiana immediately, but instead looked around cautiously.

Once Xia Yuan confirmed that Bronya was not nearby, he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Kiana:

Kiana, have you run into Bronya?

"No, I was alone when I was teleported here, don't worry... As my best gaming partner, I will absolutely not let Bronya drag you back to debut as an idol."

Kiana seemed to understand Xia Yuan's thoughts and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.

Kiana, you..

Xia Yuan suppressed his emotions; he hadn't expected Kiana to care about him so much.

"Speaking of which, the seven wonders of the school that I overheard people talking about earlier seem quite interesting—like a staircase with only thirteen floors and moving mannequins. As my best gaming partner, should we go investigate and explore them later?"

You readily agreed to Kiana's request, saying you'd do anything as long as Bronya didn't catch you.

You and Kiana discussed it and decided to go and investigate after school.

You sit down in your seat with mixed feelings, waiting for time to pass. During this time, Kiana moves her desk to sit next to yours.

You look out the window; the bustling crowds continue to pour into the school. The chattering sounds remind you of your own high school days, and you never imagined you'd have the chance to experience it again.

"Human, I've finally caught you! Take this spear!"

A parasol was slammed heavily onto the desk in front of Xia Yuan by the Spring Fairy.

"Ah...Ah Quan?!"

Xia Yuan heard that familiar yet trembling voice in his ear.

"Ah Quan... let's talk this out. Calm down, calm down. I really didn't mean to that time."

"There's nothing more to say. How could those despicable humans treat the great spirit of the spring like that? You must take responsibility for the great spirit of the spring!"

"Wait a minute, why should my gaming partner be responsible for you?!"

Kiana stopped the Spring Fairy.

"Hmph, moon elves, don't try to stop me. Even if we share the same origin, there's no room for negotiation when it comes to humanity. If you don't believe me, ask them what they've done."

Miss Spring Fairy clenched her hands tightly. If Kiana let go, she would rush over and poke Xia Yuan upside down with the parasol to vent her anger.

"Xia Yuan, please explain yourself, otherwise I won't be able to stop them."

Caught in the middle, Xia Yuan fell silent. He didn't know how to explain to Kiana, because if he did, he would be met with Kiana's disdainful look, as if she were trash.

Forget about being gaming partners, we might not even be able to be friends anymore.

"Wow...is this our new teacher?"

Just then, a series of exclamations and whispers came from the classroom. As a result, Kiana, the Spring Fairy, and Xia Yuan all looked up at the classroom door.

Xia Yuan stood up from his seat.

"Mei?!!!"

The woman who entered the classroom was exceptionally elegant.

She had long purple hair, long and unreserved legs wrapped in black stockings, and an aura that instantly attracted the attention of many students. She wore a pair of very intellectual glasses and held a roll call book in her hand.

However, Aunt Mei's expression was aloof and cold, as if she wanted to keep strangers away.

When she saw Xia Yuan, who was sitting in the second-to-last row, stand up on her own initiative, she took one step at a time, her high heels making a crisp clattering sound on the classroom floor.

"What's wrong, dear Xia Yuan? Was your first reaction upon seeing your teacher so surprised? You even stood up excitedly?"

She pushed up her glasses, and Aunt Mei's eyes seemed to be full of amusement.

Looking at Kiana and the Spring Fairy beside her, Aunt Mei spoke again:

"Hey Xia Yuan, you haven't been studying for very long, have you already gotten to know all the girls in the class?"

Aunt Mei seems to have taken on the role of a teacher.

"Of course not, I only know the three of you, Mei."

"Eh...is that so? I thought you were all smooth talkers like that to everyone, Xia Yuan."

Just as Xia Yuan was wondering how to answer Aunt Mei's question, Kiana, who was sitting next to him, poked Aunt Mei's leg, which was covered by black stockings, with a ballpoint pen on the table, but accidentally used too much force.

Chapter 290 The Corruptor is Coming to Corrode Your Heart~

This is also thanks to.....

Aunt Mei shifted her attention from Xia Yuan to Kiana.

"Hey Kiana, you're making a fuss as soon as class starts. Are you planning to stand in the corner of the classroom and reflect on your actions?"

Aunt Mei pointed to the corner of the wall, indicating that Kiana should stand there and not move around. She would wait until she had settled down the classmate named Xia Yuan in front of her before having a proper talk with Kiana about life.

She guessed... Kiana had been corrupted by Bronya's subordinates.
