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

These days, she still hasn't gotten over that game. Even the mere mention of the bad guy's name makes her body instinctively contract and clench. Perhaps because the game's feedback is too realistic, her stomach has become much more regular.

"Tsk..."

Bronya pouted unhappily; even Seele wasn't following her anymore.

The way the other person was trembling, wrapped tightly in a small blanket, meant they were probably in no better shape than me in the game. They must have also been harmed by the bad guys, but they were just choosing not to fight back.

But she prefers to take the initiative.

This behavior of avoiding incompetent subordinates will only embolden them.

"Bronya~ Come and fight me!"

"When Mr. Xia Yuan returns... what delicious food should we cook for him?"

"The bad guys stay outside and never come back!"

Everyone in the room except Bronya had their own thoughts. She felt that if she continued to stay in this room, she might soon go from being the Herrscher of Truth to the Herrscher of Irrationality.

Her sanity was rapidly decreasing as the idiot Kiana in the room kept clamoring to challenge her to a duel.

If this continues, she might become a stupid boss.

The emotions accumulating in his lower abdomen gradually transformed from anger into resentment.

Bronya now hopes her foolish subordinate will come back. She promises she won't be angry if he appears before her; she'll only be grateful for his rescue.

But the match against that idiot Kiana must continue. If she remembers, this should be the [981]th game already, right?

Exhausted, she picked up the controller and started punching the persistent punching bag beside her. For a moment, her longing for her stupid subordinate was stronger than ever.

at this time.

Inside the quiet lunar base.

In Xia Yuan and the fairy Ai Li's temporary room, clusters of dreamy pink bubbles quietly appeared, enveloping everyone and returning them to the present.

The bubble bursts.

When Xia Yuan opened his eyes again, he had returned from the imaginary space to the familiar room he and the fairy Ellie had in the lunar base. The double bed in front of him looked more and more pleasing to the eye, and he really wanted to lie down on it and indulge himself.

drip-

drip-

Before he could even lie down on the soft bed or make arrangements for Himeko-sensei's next steps, the communication device he was wearing kept ringing incessantly.

"Who would message me at this time?"

Could it be Bronya or Miss Blackie? Xia Yuan nervously opened the terminal that had just restored communication, even bracing himself for a 60-second voice attack from Bronya.

But an unexpected petite figure appeared before Xia Yuan's eyes. The person in the projection had their hands on their hips and was looking at him angrily.

"You bastard, how dare you not answer my call! Do you know how many times I've called you this week?!" Theresa glared angrily at the man on the other end of the screen as the call finally went through.

She was the Bishop of Destiny, and usually others would take the initiative to see her, or even see her at all. But Xia Yuan, this guy who was even more of a scoundrel than Siegfried, dared to not reply to her messages for a whole week.

She'd never been treated like this before; this guy was infuriating.

No, she needs to drink some bitter melon juice to calm down!

She downed the bright green beverage in one gulp. This bastard's coordinates had disappeared from Destiny's system for a time. She thought he had died on some forgotten planet and was personally piloting the Moon Throne to the lunar base to search for clues to his disappearance.

Communication with Kiana, Bronya, Mei, and the others could not be established.

Despite the bishop's roar, Xia Yuan heard it as if the bishop was being affectionate, which had no power to harm him at all. However, the worry that the bishop was showing could not be concealed.

He scratched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly.

During this time, he's been on a journey back in time to save Aunt Himeko; it would be strange to be able to contact him...

Chapter 640 Who, who wants to take a nap with you!

But why is Theresa so eager to contact me at this critical juncture?

However, as long as it's not Bronya or Miss Blackie, it's fine.

"Your Excellency, don't be angry. It's normal for the signal to be occasionally bad in the lunar base. It's very likely that Qi Bao accidentally broke the network cable while playing games because she was playing too badly."

He casually threw the blame onto Qibao's head; what could he do, given how much he doted on Chongchong?

"Are you questioning Schicksal's technological capabilities? Even if you fall out of the galaxy, even if Kiana cuts all the network cables in the base, your location will still be synchronized to Schicksal's database in real time on the portable terminal."

Damn it, does the other person think I'm easy to fool? They actually used such an excuse to fool me. If they don't want to talk, they shouldn't talk!

Theresa pouted.

Xia Yuan found the bishop's puffed-up expression very cute.

But in order not to upset her body, which was still slowly developing after fifty years, Xia Yuan tried to change the subject to prevent Theresa from dwelling on the issue. He wanted to give her a surprise.

"By the way, is there something important that Your Excellency the Bishop suddenly contacted me about?"

Theresa gritted her teeth and said, "You haven't forgotten our agreement, have you?!"

This past two weeks.

She almost broke the terminal screen from pressing so many buttons. Not only did that bastard not reply to her communication requests, but he also emphasized the word "suddenly" in his tone. He was definitely, absolutely, deliberately trying to annoy her!

When she arrives at the lunar base with Judah in hand, she'll show this guy what a surprise attack really is!

"Agreement?"

Xia Yuan thought about it carefully and realized that he did seem to have made some kind of promise to Theresa before.

"Your Excellency, I understand now. You want to keep your promise to take a nap with me?" Xia Yuan suddenly realized, slapping his forehead. He hadn't expected that His Excellency was so eager to take a nap with him. Perhaps he felt some kind of warmth from him?

There was really nothing that could be done about the dishonest bishop, so I reluctantly agreed to his small request.

You can sleep whenever you want; he's always there when you call.

Theresa choked on the bitter melon juice she had just drunk because of Xia Yuan's words. Her face flushed red as she wiped her wet lips and tried her best to explain, "Cough cough... Who, who wants to take a nap with, with you bastard?!"

His Excellency the bishop immediately broke down.

She sought out Xia Yuan because of the Herrscher of Domination. It seemed that the Herrscher of Domination was considering a collective strike because she hadn't seen her older brother. Fortunately, the city's construction was progressing rapidly, and the Valkyries were finally getting plenty of time off.

We can't let them all go on strike, especially since she personally promised the Law of Domination.

Within a month, let her older brother spend at least one day with her.

As a result, it was almost next month, but Xia Yuan still refused to answer her calls. In order to appease the Herrscher of Domination, she had no choice but to promise him a few more days.

However, each time the puppet controlled by the Herrscher of Domination passed by her, it stared at her with the same look it gave a heartless and ruthless boss, as if she were a super villain who owed her wages.

Over time, even the bishop couldn't save face, so he had to come to see Xia Yuan in person after finishing his work approving documents.

"Huh? Weren't you taking a nap? What does Your Excellency the Bishop want with me? You know I'm very busy. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now~" Of course, he wouldn't hang up, after all, he still had things to arrange for Aunt Himeko.

He blocked the communication terminal with his body, preventing the bishop from seeing the environment around the projection.

However, Theresa's huffy appearance was so cute that he couldn't resist teasing the short bishop.

"You, no, don't hang up! Have you forgotten your request to spend one day with the Herrscher of Domination every month? It's almost next month, and if you don't go to spend time with her, she's going to go on strike."

Seeing that Xia Yuan's figure was about to disappear on the other side of the projection, Theresa quickly finished speaking at top speed.

She was genuinely afraid that this jerk would suddenly hang up.

"Oh, so that's what it is. But Your Excellency, I remember that the prerequisite for me to fulfill the agreement was... that Your Excellency had to take a nap with me first, right? Could it be that Your Excellency is going to back out?"

Theresa glared angrily at the scoundrel who was taking advantage of her misfortune.

"Fine, go to sleep. As a bishop, I won't go back on my word. But after your afternoon nap, you'd better immediately return to Schicksal and spend one day, no... three days, with the Herrscher of Dominion!!!"

She held up three little fingers, emphasizing the number of days, a promise she had made to the Lawgiver without her consent.

Who told this guy to keep making her angry!

Three days is too much of an underestimation of him, isn't it?

As long as the Herrscher of the Void doesn't use screws or steel wool... let alone three days, he can do it for a week. The doll's body can be posed in many ways that Mei and Bronya would find difficult to do.

Seeing that the other party readily agreed in the communication, Theresa suddenly regretted that she hadn't said more.

However, she was just glad that the other party agreed. She was really afraid that the other party would disagree no matter what, or even ask for an exorbitant price. She couldn't very well take Judas with her and bring him back herself, could she? She couldn't bring herself to do that.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly.

Theresa was grinding the bitter melon powder she had just made. This method unexpectedly relieved her stress and also helped her relax. With the problem of the Herrscher of Dominion's collective strike resolved and the matter that had been weighing on her mind settled, she could finally relax a little.

She was leisurely leaning back in her chair when a mature woman's voice came through the communicator.

"Theresa, it's been a long time. I didn't expect that after all these years, you haven't changed at all, even after becoming the Bishop of Destiny." There was a hint of teasing in his voice.

Why does that voice sound so familiar?

She sensed a mature yet languid air about her. Had she heard that phrase before? Her gaze involuntarily drifted to the other end of the communication, wondering what tricks Xia Yuan was up to this time.

But when she saw that fiery red figure, perhaps she was too shocked, and the bitter gourd grinder in her hand accidentally fell to the ground, making a sizzling sound.

"Hime...Himeko? Is it really you?!"

Theresa's voice trembled slightly, her hands hovering empty in mid-air, unable to calm down for a long time. After a while, she subconsciously pinched her cheek.

After Chapter 641, I followed the young man.

The faint pain in her cheek made Theresa realize that she wasn't dreaming.

But there is another possibility.

It was Xia Yuan, the guy on the other end of the communication, who deliberately tricked Himeko with her holographic image.

"Himeko, is it really you?!"

"Oh? It seems our headmistress doesn't recognize old acquaintances anymore now that she's become bishop. Well then, I'll just have to tell you all those embarrassing stories about you drinking, Theresa~"

"Stop! Quick, stop... I, I believe you are the real Himeko, not that Xia Yuan guy's projection made using holograms and AI. Don't say another word!"

Himeko only mentioned one small thing.

Theresa's face flushed red, and she jumped up from the chair with a whoosh.

She had kept some of her dark secrets to herself, especially with Xia Yuan, who could anger her even more than Siegfried, right there in the middle of it all. There were some things she just couldn't let him know.

Considering that the other party was able to bring Bronya's mother back from the past, it's not impossible that they could bring Himeko as well.

only.......

Theresa never expected this day to come so suddenly, catching her completely off guard.

Xia Yuan, that guy, hid it so well, and he wasn't honest at all. Why didn't he just tell her that he disappeared to bring Ji Zi back? If he had told her from the beginning, how could she have been angry!

He has to tease her to be happy, ugh, that rascal...

Theresa's eyes gradually welled up with tears, and she bit her lip tightly, trying hard not to cry.

To calm her emotions, she said in a seemingly casual tone, "Hmph, what do you mean 'not changed at all'? Compared to before, Himeko, haven't you noticed that your headmaster has grown a lot taller!"

Theresa measured her own height.

Compared to her previous petite appearance, she has grown quite a bit taller now.

"Sorry, sorry, I really couldn't see any changes in you, Theresa, in the guy's communication terminal."

Himeko smiled and expressed her apology.

But Theresa didn't sense the sincerity in her former friend's words; she only felt a faint perfunctory attitude.

"Hmph, you'll see when I get there and we stand face to face. I guarantee I can get to Himeko, you..." Theresa's voice trailed off as if she had a choked-up word.

The image of Himeko projected onto the communication screen only showed her upper body.

After a brief comparison, the bishop suddenly remembered that her head used to only reach Himeko's waist, but no matter how tall she was now, Himeko's two fat spheres seemed like an insurmountable obstacle for her.

It restricted her path to the top.

Nearly fifty years have passed, and she is still the same little bun she used to be, not even half the size of the other girl. If the other girl continues to grow, what will happen?! She couldn't compare to her before, and she can't compare to her now.

"Where to? Hehe, why isn't our Bishop continuing?" Himeko crossed her arms, teasing him while also showing off her near-perfect figure on the communication terminal.

"Ugh... Himeko, you bad guy!"

Theresa covered her head with her hands, looking like she didn't want to see the other person again. The other person had just returned and had already bullied her, her direct superior.

She wanted to hang up right then and there.

But for some reason, a strange happiness always welled up from the bottom of my heart, the joy and satisfaction of being able to see old friends again, being able to chat so freely, no longer feeling anxious about the collapse, and embracing a better future.
