As a symbiotic being, I raise children amidst the chaos.

"One more round, Kiana, you'll never catch up to Bronya's score!" Bronya raised her head slightly, a smile playing on her lips, her confident expression suggesting victory was already assured.

Those bright eyes gleamed, revealing an unwavering belief in their own strength: "No one can defeat the invincible Brown Tooth!"

"Hmph, I'm not afraid! I'll definitely make a comeback!" Although Kiana's voice sounded somewhat dejected, she still refused to give up easily and tried her best to squeeze out a bit of courage from the depths of her heart to support herself.

She gripped the game controller tightly, her eyes glued to the screen, muttering to herself, "Watch me pull off a comeback from near-death!"

However, at that moment, a dramatic scene unfolded. Kiana's character was suddenly kicked away by Bronya's character in the game screen.

With a soft "poof," the words "Game Over" mercilessly appeared in the center of the screen.

Looking at the scene before her, Kiana, who had just mustered up her courage, suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon, helplessly spreading her hands, and her expression immediately changed from excitement to frustration.

Then, muttering a complaint, "Honestly, how come it died again!" He looked exactly like a defeated little rooster.

Chen Yuan, who had been sitting quietly watching from the sidelines, chuckled softly. He first covered his mouth with his hand and coughed lightly a few times, successfully drawing the attention of the two who were locked in a fierce contest.

Kiana, who had been immersed in her feelings of defeat, instantly perked up as soon as she heard Chenyuan's voice, her eyes lighting up with delight as she exclaimed, "Chenyuan! You're awake?"

"What's wrong? Did I disturb you?" Chen Yuan asked softly, his tone very gentle. As he spoke, he gently patted Rita's shoulder beside him.

Rita, being incredibly clever, instantly understood, nodded slightly in acknowledgment, and then took a step forward, leading Chen Yuan along the way.

Soon, they arrived in front of the other two people. Kiana was standing there, a shy blush on her pretty face, as tempting as a ripe apple.

She unconsciously fiddled with the hem of her clothes, her eyes flickering, seemingly still immersed in something that had just happened, and appeared somewhat embarrassed.

When she noticed Chen Yuan and Rita approaching, she snapped out of her daze and quickly waved her hand, saying...

"No, no! Our round has just ended." As she spoke, she scratched the back of her head, looking incredibly playful.

However, Kiana then seemed to suddenly remember something, and pouted, muttering, "But... I haven't won a single game all day."

Seeing this, Chen Yuan smiled slightly and comforted him, "It's alright, victory and defeat are common in war. Just try harder next time to win back the victory."

With that, he slowly extended an arm, and a symbiote snaked out, gently stroking Kiana's head. The touch was cool and refreshing, yet it made Kiana feel incredibly comfortable.

Just then, Chen Yuan's smile faded, his expression turned serious, and he said earnestly to Kiana, "Since you're not playing the game for the time being, I'd like to take this opportunity to talk to you about some things."

Hearing this, Kiana looked up, her big eyes filled with curiosity as she stared at Chen Yuan, eagerly asking, "Hmm? What is it? It sounds like it's very important."

"This matter is indeed quite important to you!" Chen Yuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Then he gently raised his hands, clapped them, making a crisp sound, and gestured to everyone to sit down first.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yuan's figure flashed, like a swallow, and he instantly leaped onto the exquisite coffee table.

Just then, Chen Yuan slowly spoke, "What I'm going to talk about this time is about Siegfried and Cecilia." His voice was neither loud nor soft, but it seemed to have a magical power, causing the entire scene to fall silent in an instant.

Everyone's eyes were drawn to Chen Yuan, including Bianca, who was originally at the other end of the room.

She had clearly heard what Chen Yuan said, and opened her mouth as if to ask something. However, before she could speak, Rita, who was standing next to Chen Yuan, gently shook her head.

Although Rita's movement was subtle, Bianca still keenly caught the signal. Rita gestured to Bianca with her eyes, "Don't ask any more questions, Lady Durandal. Just pretend you didn't hear anything."

'When His Highness is ready to speak, he will naturally tell us. Until then, just listen attentively.'

Bianca gazed into Rita's eyes, and after a moment, as if she understood what Rita meant, she nodded slightly to indicate that she knew.

Then, she crossed her arms and stood quietly to the side, her beautiful eyes calmly watching Chen Yuan and the others, without making any further moves or saying anything.

"Siegfried and Cecilia...aren't those my stinky dad and mom?" Just then, the brief silence was broken, and Kiana suddenly realized.

She jumped up from the sofa as if she had been electrocuted, clenched her little hands into fists, and slammed them hard on the coffee table in front of her.

With a loud "bang," the teacups and fruit plate on the coffee table jumped up, as if they were also startled by Kiana's sudden action.

"Chen Yuan, tell me quickly! Do you know where they are now? Please, can you tell me?"

Kiana stared wide-eyed at Chen Yuan, her gaze as if she were a starving little lion, eager to pounce on him and devour him alive.

Seeing Kiana's agitated state, Chenyuan quickly extended two symbiotes and gently pressed them on her shoulders, trying to calm her down.

"Don't worry, Kiana. I can guess some clues, but as for the specifics, I'll have to confirm with Theresa tonight."

He gently comforted Kiana, while slowly shifting his gaze to Bronya, who had been sitting silently to the side.

“Well then, Bronya, I have a plan I'd like to discuss with you. In a few days, I'm planning to go back to Anti-Entropy. Would you like to come with me?” Chen Yuan looked at Bronya with a smile.

"Back to Anti-Entropy?" Bronya was slightly taken aback upon hearing Chen Yuan's suggestion, clearly somewhat surprised. However, she quickly nodded in agreement.

“Yes, Bronya will be fine if it's going back to the orphanage. And that way, she can also visit Cocolia's mother and Seele at the same time.”

"Then it's settled!" Upon hearing Bronya's crisp reply, Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and leisurely stretched his somewhat languid body.

As she stretched her limbs, she let her thoughts drift away, and the image of Cocolia involuntarily appeared in her mind.

"It's been quite a long time since I've seen them," Chen Yuan murmured to himself, a hint of longing in his voice.

However, unlike Bronya and Chenyuan, Kiana was completely immersed in deep thought.

Those usually sharp and clever eyes were now tightly closed, and her brows were slightly furrowed, as if she was trying hard to piece together some fragmented clues.

My brain, which had been somewhat slow to react, suddenly seemed to be activated and started working at lightning speed.

"Anti-Entropy..." Kiana murmured the unfamiliar term, pondering to herself, "Could it be... that my stinky dad and mom are both in this organization called Anti-Entropy?"

"If that's the case, does that mean I'll be able to see them again soon...?" At this thought, Kiana's heart, which had been slightly heavy with longing, instantly became excited, and even her breathing became a little faster.

----------

Time flew by, and night fell in the blink of an eye. In Theresa's room, Chen Yuan sat quietly in the center of the bed.

Theresa sat obediently to the side, her eyes brimming with anticipation, yet it was difficult to discern what she was expecting.

"Cough cough..." Chen Yuan couldn't bear Theresa's intense gaze any longer, so he coughed lightly twice, then continued speaking calmly with a steady heartbeat.

"Bianca and Rita are here right now, it wouldn't be good if they overheard our conversation."

"Hmph!" Upon hearing this, Theresa pouted slightly in dissatisfaction, waved her hand gently, and then crossed her arms, responding with a hint of resentment.

"Alright, alright, what a spoilsport! I was really looking forward to it. So, what is it you want to ask me?"

As if oblivious to Theresa's subtle emotions, Chen Yuan ignored her resentful gaze and continued speaking to himself.

"Actually, I have two questions. The first one is about Cecilia and Siegfried. Are they currently with the Anti-Entropy organization?"

"How did you know?" When Chen Yuan said those words, Theresa's calm expression was instantly broken. She was slightly stunned, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
