Honkai: It’s broken, I have become the Herrscher of Corrosion?

February 2014, 2, St. Freya Academy, Valkyrie Dormitory.

Mei Raiden heard the noise and pushed open Kiana's door, only to find that there was no one inside and there was a half-finished homework on the table.

"Really? I haven't finished my homework yet and Kiana is gone again."

She knew clearly that she had just left the dormitory and should still be in the academy, hiding from Theresa, Ji Zi, Fu Hua and herself, and would not go out so quickly.

St. Freya Academy is very large, and searching blindly like this is not a solution. Mei rolled her eyes a few times and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

Soon, Mei came out of the dormitory carrying a pot of freshly cooked cream stew and headed towards the spots where Kiana often climbed over the wall to skip classes.

When she reached the southeast corner of St. Freya's Academy, Mei heard a rustling sound in the grass nearby, and then a white hair appeared in the green grass.

Mei carried the cream stew and tiptoed to the back of the bush.

Then, she saw a cat hiding behind the bushes, swallowing its saliva constantly and trying its best to restrain itself.

Kiana looked at Mei, who was staring at her with a kind face. Her face was immediately filled with embarrassment. She slowly stood up from behind the bushes and said to Mei,

"You're so mean, Mei, you actually tempted me with delicious food~~"

Mei replied unhappily:

"Normally at this time, you would jump into the kitchen like a cat to steal food, but today you slipped out of the dormitory so quickly. I knew you were going to climb over the wall and escape from school again. Go back and have lunch quickly, and make sure to finish your homework this afternoon!"

"... Mei, you should know that we have team training in the afternoon. The homework is too difficult. Even if I keep working on it, I may not be able to finish it by the evening. And if I don't go, you will go alone and won't be able to find anyone to team up with. It will be so lonely, so I..."

"…So you decided to escape from school first, fool around during lunch, and then rush to the training location on time?"

Kiana nodded very honestly.

Mei sighed softly, and her tone became much gentler:

"You're right. Bronya is not at the academy today. If I go alone, I really won't be able to find my teammates."

Kiana's eyes were suddenly filled with light:

"So Mei, what you mean is..."

Mei answered very firmly:

"So I won't go to the afternoon training either. I'll just stay in the dormitory and watch you until you finish your homework."

"Ah~~ Meiyi, why are you like this?"

Although Kiana expressed dissatisfaction verbally, her body was very obedient and followed Mei back to the dormitory.

"Goo~~"

As soon as they entered the room, the sound of Kiana's stomach growling filled the room.

"Eat first, and then do your homework."

"Oh……"

Kiana picked up her fork and spoon and took two bites of the creamy stew, her mood instantly brightening.

"Mei's cooking is still so delicious. If I can eat Mei's cooking every day, it seems that doing homework is not so scary."

"Really? If you can really do that, I will definitely make delicious food for you every day."

After Kiana licked the pot clean, she wiped her mouth and didn't make any more trouble. Instead, she went back to her room to do her homework.

Mei was surprised to see that she had become so sensible, but when she saw the pot that was very clean without having to wash it and Kiana's unsatisfied look, she immediately showed a distressed expression.

"Alas, Kiana's appetite has increased again..."

At around 4pm, Mei was surprised to find that Kiana had actually finished her homework for the first time. Although she would go to her room from time to time to check on her, she was always very serious and didn't even know she was there.

"Qiana, you performed very well today. What would you like to eat tonight?"

Hearing this, Kiana showed a somewhat embarrassed expression:

"Mei, do you know what day it is today?"

"February 2th, so you want to..."

Mei understood what she meant and her face turned red.

"Yeah, that's what I mean. At least today, I don't want Mei to worry about me anymore, so tonight..."

Mei smiled and nodded:

"Well, I'll accompany you."

After a while, the two arrived outside St. Freya Academy. The food street was still very lively, but many people on the street had an exquisite box in their hands.

"It looks like a lot of people have received Valentine's Day gifts, so Mei, do I get one too?"

Hearing Kiana's tone of asking knowingly, Mei smiled:

"Of course, I'll give it to you when I get back."

The two of them naturally held hands and came to a very busy street.

"Two people will participate in the event. If you complete all the activities within the specified time, you will win a super luxurious prize. Please go to..."

Although the so-called "super luxurious gift" was just so-so, since we were just out for fun, it didn't matter. Kiana once again pulled Mei into the registration office.

Shooting, taking photos, catching goldfish...Kiana made full use of the Valkyrie's agile physique and European attributes and completed it quickly.

The only thing left is the last item, which is to simulate a situational dialogue.

Simply put, it is to test what both parties will say to her in a specific scenario.

Through the lottery, Mei drew the following question:

[If you are an employee of a company, how do you convince her to work with you? ]

The question that Kiana drew was:

[If she asks you to work in her company, how to politely refuse? ]

Such a thing would never happen in reality, so Kiana just treated it as an immersive experience in a game.

Under the influence of the staff, the two entered the designated room, each with their own props.

"Ms. Kiana, our group has the best welfare benefits in the industry. With your ability, the company will offer you a special two-day weekend benefit."

"Special two-day weekend? It can't be two days off a month..."

"Especially for two-day weekends, naturally the days with even numbers are the days for holidays."

Kiana's eyes suddenly widened and she subconsciously took a breath.

Mei took advantage right from the start and continued to attack:

"In addition, if you join the company now, the company will prepare a house specifically for you, and it only takes five minutes to get to the company... So, please accept our company's employment letter."

Mei Raiden passed a piece of paper on the table to Kiana, and when Kiana saw it, her expression changed instantly:

"Mei, are you... serious?"

Mei Raiden picked up the document and took a closer look:

Marriage Registration Application Form

"Wait, Kiana, it's not..."

Just when both of them were very embarrassed, the staff member next to them also looked at the document and immediately apologized:

"This is not the prop we originally prepared. We are sorry for giving you a bad experience. The prizes for this event will be given directly to you two."

The two of them took the prize and ran away with red faces.

Not far away, Enosiya, who saw this scene, raised the corner of her mouth with satisfaction.

Back in the dormitory, Kiana suddenly asked:

"Mei, the game just now, I mean the one before that..."

Mei nodded:

"If ME still exists after the collapse, everything I just said can be realized. If there is really no extra house, you can also live on the top floor of ME, which is my house."

"No wonder you didn't act like you were acting just now..."

The two of them walked outside the house, snuggling together. The moonlight seemed particularly bright in the clear night sky.

"Mei, the moonlight tonight is so beautiful..."
