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

"Hey, what's going on downstairs?" Theresa's shouts attracted the attention of several pretty girls upstairs. Kiana peeked down and saw Theresa hanging from the ceiling, swaying back and forth.

Is Aunt Flo playing on a trampoline?

"She really is an idiot, with such a bizarre thought process." Bronya glanced at her indifferently, becoming even more certain that Theresa probably also had different feelings for Chenyuan. "It must be that the headmaster did something out of line to Brother Chenyuan."

Raiden Mei frowned. Although she wasn't entirely clear on the specifics, judging from Theresa's expression, it seemed to be just as Bronya had said.

"This place is quite lively." Fu Hua didn't show any extra expression. For her, just being able to see Chen Yuan was enough.

"Everyone, leave the rest of the luggage to me to pack. It's getting late, we should prepare dinner."

What Fu Hua didn't know was that, given her unambitious personality, in the minds of those who were still sleeping, her dangerous status was already equivalent to that of Alicia.

If Alicia exudes youthful charm and always evokes the feeling of first love, then Fu Hua embodies the image of a virtuous and supportive wife who will always be there for her husband, no matter what he does.

"Mei-kun, aren't you going to learn Chinese cuisine? Coincidentally, I have some vegetables in my luggage. If you don't mind, could you help me prepare dinner?"

"Really? I'm so grateful." Raiden Mei, upon hearing this, forgot all about Theresa. After returning to Fu Hua's room, the two each took some vegetables and two pieces of tofu and left the room.

"Let's go, Kiana, Bronya." When they entered the living room, Theresa was still hanging from the ceiling, swaying back and forth, her face showing a hint of grievance and dissatisfaction.

Seeing Kiana and Bronya come downstairs, Theresa immediately called out, "Kiana, Bronya, I, the headmaster, order you to rescue me immediately, or you'll make things difficult for me later!"

Kiana and Bronya exchanged glances, ultimately deciding to ignore Theresa's complaints. Kiana walked over to Theresa and patted her on the shoulder. "Auntie, you'd better watch yourself. There's nothing I can do about my niece."

After saying that, Kiana sat down on the sofa with Bronya, turned on the TV, and started playing video games, completely forgetting Theresa's plea for help.

“It’s no use asking anyone for help.” Chen Yuan sat on the coffee table, looking at Theresa hanging from the ceiling, and couldn’t help but sigh. “I’ve already said, you can only come down when you put those dangerous ideas aside!”

"No!!!" Seeing this, Theresa, having given up all hope, her determined gaze proclaimed her resolve to fight against fate to the very end. "The world's cutest Theresa will never give in!"

"Then you can just hang there up there." Seeing this, Chen Yuan shook his head helplessly, jumped from the coffee table onto Kiana's shoulder, and watched the two play the game. To be honest, Kiana is really bad!

Although Kiana wasn't played well, Bronya was amazing. Her hands flew across the keyboard as she controlled her character, trying to compensate for Kiana's lack of damage. 90% of the effective damage came from Bronya.

"Kiana, there's an enemy on the left, watch out!"

"Ah, really!" Kiana hurriedly adjusted her direction, but it was too late. The small, tank-class Honkai Beast-like monster crashed into the character Kiana was controlling, and the words "GAME OVER" immediately appeared on the screen.

"Tsk, not again." Kiana scratched her head in frustration, then picked up the controller again, unwilling to give up. "I refuse to believe that I can't beat this game, you little dwarf, give me another life!"

"Sigh... In just five minutes, Bronya has already given that idiot Kiana five lives..." Although she was complaining, Bronya still gave Kiana her last two lives.

"Don't worry this time! I'll definitely help you clear the game!" Although she was full of confidence, she had to admit that her skills had indeed improved. She usually died in about a minute, but this time she actually lasted for two minutes!

Bronya, left alone, was also overwhelmed. After all, it was a two-player mode, and the boss's health and attack were enhanced. In addition, there were no supplies available, and Bronya soon fell as well.

“Another GAME OVER…” Bronya shook her head helplessly, put the controller aside, and looked at Chenyuan. “Brother Chenyuan, are you going to play? Kiana’s skills are just too terrible.”

"I'll pass, my skills aren't even as good as Kiana's." Chen Yuan smiled and waved his hand. "You guys play, I'll just watch."

At that moment, the sounds of Fu Hua and Raiden Mei busily working came from the kitchen. Fu Hua skillfully chopped vegetables, while Mei watched attentively, occasionally helping to pass her some seasonings.

"Mei, this chili pepper is for flavoring, but be careful with the amount, or it will be too spicy." Fu Hua said as she chopped the chili pepper and put it into a bowl.

“Okay, I understand.” Raiden Mei nodded, carefully noting down Fu Hua’s words.

About half an hour later, an enticing aroma wafted from the kitchen. Fu Hua carried several exquisite dishes into the living room, followed closely by Raiden Mei, who was also carrying a few small dishes.

"Everyone, come and eat!" Fu Hua's voice rang out, and the people in the living room stopped what they were doing and gathered around the dining table.

"It smells so good..." Kiana sniffed the aroma, then tossed the game controller aside and quickly sat down in a chair. She was completely oblivious to Bronya's murderous glare beside her.

Seeing Kiana's impatient look, Chenyuan couldn't help but laugh. He jumped off Kiana's shoulder, walked to the dining table, looked up at Theresa hanging from the ceiling, sighed, and was still a little reluctant to part with her.

"I'll let you off the hook for today. Come down and eat first." The symbiote released Theresa, who slowly landed on the sofa. She rubbed her slightly numb legs and muttered a few words of dissatisfaction. "You'll have to wait until tonight..."

"Strange, it feels like something's missing?" Kiana, her mouth stuffed full, looked around and frowned slightly, but she just couldn't remember what was missing.

"You must be talking about Himeko." Theresa glanced at Kiana with displeasure, annoyed by the latter's earlier inaction. "That girl is probably still in Changkong City; she won't be back for at least two or three days."

"I see..." Kiana shrank back, naturally noticing Theresa's gaze. She then bury her head in the sand, silently continuing to eat.

"Principal Theresa, you just said that Teacher Himeko is in Changkong City?" Raiden Mei suddenly asked, a hint of worry in her eyes as she recalled some unpleasant things.

After hearing this, Theresa swallowed the tofu in her mouth and explained, "Yes, after all, there is still a lot of follow-up work in Changkong City, and as the captain of the Hyperion, she naturally cannot spare the time."

"It's alright, Mei-kun." Noticing Raiden Mei's worried look, Fu Hua coughed twice to draw her attention. "Himeko-sensei is very strong. If it's just the follow-up work in Changkong City, it won't be a problem for her at all. She should be back in about two days at most."

"Really...that's good."

"Mei, don't worry." Theresa took a bite of rice, a smug smile playing on her lips. "That guy? He's the ace of St. Freya Academy and the Far East Branch!"

Meanwhile, in Changkong City, Himeko planted a greatsword into the head of a Honkai Beast and stretched contentedly. The surrounding space was filled with the ruins of her battle, and Himeko was in excellent condition.

Although Chenyuan hasn't formed a symbiotic relationship with Himeko yet, it has left behind parasitic seeds that are constantly repairing Himeko's broken body. While not as fast as when they formed a symbiotic relationship, they remain within Himeko's body for a longer period.

Himeko could now feel her body slowly regaining its vitality, so she was extremely excited throughout the day. However, the Valkyries behind her were unaware of this and looked at Himeko with somewhat strange expressions.

"You know, isn't the commander acting a little strange today? Normally, unless we're in danger, we almost never get off the Hyperion."

"You ask me, I'll ask who to go with!"

"Is it because of that strange man yesterday, Commander Himeko, that's why..."

“I think it’s very possible. I’m telling you, the books I’ve read say that women become younger, both physically and mentally, after dating men.”

"Dating? Doesn't that mean doing *that*? How embarrassing... Commander Himeko, are you perhaps...?"

Now that you mention it, it does seem to make sense...

…………

"What are you guys whispering about over there?!" Himeko naturally heard the girls behind her whispering, and with a look of impatience on her face, she turned around.

"Have I been too lenient with you guys lately? Get moving, all of you! Otherwise, everyone's training will be doubled!"

"Eh!!! Commander Himeko, we were wrong!!" Upon hearing Himeko's words, all the Valkyries shuddered and quickly left the area to go about their business.

"Really... a bunch of young girls, yet they know quite a lot." Watching their departing figures, Himeko slung her greatsword over her shoulder, clenched her fists, and looked at them with a complicated expression.

"I don't have a habit of owing favors to others. As for worldly ties... I hope you're ready!"
