Kiana suddenly realized, then chuckled awkwardly, "Um... Paddo likes to do that kind of thing?"
Sakura and Hana exchanged a glance and remained silent.
However, only Rita's expression changed.
"Rita, what's wrong?" Durandal noticed the change in her adjutant's expression and seemed to understand.
"It's nothing, just a little joke, Lady Durandal..."
"What's missing?" Bai Yan asked with a strange expression.
"It's just a necklace, nothing serious."
Bai Yan then comforted her, "It's alright, we can settle the score with her later."
"..."
"That's not necessary!"
A familiar voice broke the subtle awkwardness.
All the people saw was a masked man easily dragging the helpless Pado over.
“Uh, Thousand Calamities… and Aponia, long time no see…” Kiana said, pausing for a moment.
Qianjie: "Hmm."
Finally, he released Paddo, who hung her head and obediently returned the necklace.
"It's been a long time, Kiana. I'm so glad to see you again."
Aponia greeted Kiana first, then glanced at everyone, her gaze lingering on Bai Yan for a moment longer.
Then, a smile slowly appeared on his face.
"The Pure Land of Past Lives has no burdens. If we can answer your questions, that is the greatest meaning for us memory beings."
Bai Yan's face twitched; he could clearly sense the meaning behind Aponia's gaze.
Fortunately, she chose to see through it but not say anything.
Durandal quietly asked, "Bai Yan, where is this one?"
"The third one is Aponia of the [Discipline]."
“Be careful when she says ‘please.’ People who hear that word will unconsciously act according to her instructions.”
Upon hearing this, Durandal immediately became alert.
"Don't worry, I won't do that, after all you are Kiana's friends."
However, Raiden Mei wasn't buying it. She crossed her arms and said, "I still remember the first time we met, you tried to impose a discipline on me."
"That was just to allow us to communicate smoothly, and there was no other purpose."
"hope so."
After a while, Kosmo also came out.
He looked at everyone but didn't say a word.
Durandal, however, instinctively asked again, "Is this one too?"
"Ninth, Kosmo of [Asahi] - but generally he should be with Gretchen."
"Um……"
Upon hearing this, Aponia's eyes flashed, and she took the opportunity to look at Bai Yan and ask, "Why did you mention Gretchen?"
Bai Yan said calmly, "It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Bai Yan, the head of the logistics and combat support team of the Undying Blade of Destiny. As for Gretchen, she is one of the Thirteen Heroes of Fire Chaser that I met in the Paradise of Past Lives in a parallel world."
"Ying Jie?"
"It is said that the suggestion was made by Alicia, who is second in rank."
"That definitely sounds like her style..."
Aponia seemed to be lost in thought.
"I remember you said before that Gretchen would be stained with other people's colors. What exactly is that state?" Raiden Mei asked curiously.
"I'm a little confused by your sudden question."
"There's no particular reason, but I think some deep-seated secrets might involuntarily come to light after experiencing drastically different timelines," she said coldly.
“Then you might be disappointed,” Bai Yan suddenly said with a smirk. “After being influenced by someone else, she usually learns some of the words and actions of the last person she’s spent too much time with—for example: ‘Gale, submit to me!’”
Raiden Mei: “?”
Upon hearing this, Kosmo couldn't help but ask, "Who...is this?"
"Raiden Mei, from a parallel world."
"I saw it with my own eyes before, she fought a battle with the memory Möbius."
“Every time you launch a full-force attack, you should recite this and summon a red dragon to spew electricity.”
"Because of this, Jackal even suggested that her codename should be 'Red Electric Dragon'."
Raiden Mei: "...That's definitely Jackal's style, but where did that dragon come from?"
Bai Yan glanced at Kiana, then looked away: "Those are Benares' remains after his death. You from the parallel world collected them. They're probably something like a shikigami, and they've been named Kurikara."
Rita, who had just retrieved her necklace, found this amusing and deliberately asked, "What else has Miss Gretsch imitated?"
Bai Yan thought for a moment and said, "Roar, Kosmo!"
Kosmo: "?"
"Don't misunderstand, that's exactly how Gretchen imitated it back then, but in the parallel world, Raiden Mei called it Kurikara."
Raiden Mei: “…”

"Wait a minute, why are Mebius and Mei fighting?" Kiana asked.
She seemed to have grasped the key point.
Based on her understanding of Mebius, Raiden Mei was also puzzled.
"The reason is simple: there is no Mebius in the reality over there, but the Mebius in Paradise wants to take over this Herrscher's body, so she set a trap. However, in the end, it was Raiden Mei who beat Mebius down, even though someone intervened."
"...Given her personality, that possibility cannot be ruled out." Raiden Mei frowned.
“Parallel worlds, huh…” Aponia mused.
"Why isn't Dr. Mebius here? Is something wrong with the parallel world?" Kiana asked.
"That's what I'm wondering about too. Is the Serpent Lord over there still Kevin?"
Everyone was puzzled.
But soon, other people arrived here.
As soon as Alicia peeked out, she saw five beautiful girls, each with their own unique charm.
She tidied her pink hair, which didn't need any fancy styling, and then walked out slowly with a slightly reserved air.
He took a few steps closer and saw Kiana, then suddenly froze.
Bai Yan's group also noticed the newcomer and turned their gazes toward him as if paying him special attention.
"Alicia!" Kiana greeted her first.
"..."
She then took a deep breath, gazed at Kiana, and slowly walked over.
When she reached Kiana, she said softly, "It's been a long time, Kiana..."
"What's wrong with you?" Kiana asked, noticing the unusual emotion in the other person's expression.
Raiden Mei, standing to the side, frowned, sensing that something was amiss.
For various reasons, most people chose to remain silent.
Except for Bronya.
She silently walked to Bai Yan's side, stood on tiptoe, and asked softly, "Brother Bai Yan, is this the person you mentioned before, the one who calls himself the Thirteenth Herrscher in a parallel world?"
"Yes, but from what Raiden Mei said over there, I feel that things are not so simple."
"Why do you say that?"
"Do you still remember the difference between the Herrschers of the previous civilization and those of our time?"
"...So, does that mean that Alicia also lost her self-awareness in the end?"
"I suggest we don't bring this up yet."
“…Bronya understands.”
Alicia was stunned for a long time before she looked away from Kiana, and then she became cheerful again.
"Kiana, are these all your friends? Introduce them to me!"
"Uh, okay."
The atmosphere relaxed again, and Kiana led her to Bronya first.
"You probably already know Mei. This is Bronya. Both Mei and I met in Changkong City and later went to school together at St. Freya."
"Hello, Sister Alicia."
"Yes, it's nice to meet you, Bronya."
Kiana then brought Alicia to Durandal and the others, and said with some hesitation, "This is Durandal, who fought alongside us and is the strongest S-rank Valkyrie in the Destiny Organization. She is also the current user of the Black Abyss White Flower."
The two greeted each other.
Kiana then explained, "If there's any connection between you two, it's that Alicia was the first user of the Black Abyss White Flower."
Durandal realized what was going on and looked at Alicia with the eyes of someone who admired a sage, which made the latter's ears turn slightly red.
Bai Yan deliberately added, "The previous user was Kiana's mother, Cecilia."
Alicia: "It seems we really are destined to be together!"
"Didn't you return this Divine Key because Black Abyss White Flower wasn't cute enough?"
"..."
"Oh, I was talking about parallel worlds. As expected, the differences between the two are quite significant."
However, judging from her expression, even Kiana could tell that things were just as Bai Yan had said.
Kiana glared at Bai Yan, then introduced, "This is Rita, Durandal's adjutant."
"Good day, Miss Alicia."
After chatting with several beautiful girls, Miss Alicia quickly forgot about the embarrassment she had just experienced.
She even suddenly began to scrutinize Bai Yan closely.
"Kiana's close friend's older brother... Bai Yan, I feel that you and one of my friends are somewhat similar in temperament."
"Could it be that Captain Fu Yan?" he frowned.
"Hmm, do you know about the Immortal Boat? She said she comes from the Immortal Boat and is from the Fu clan."
The moment that name was mentioned, Rita and Durandal immediately stared at Bai Yan, carefully watching his expression.
"A celestial vessel from 50,000 years ago?"
"Hmm, she also said that her power comes from destiny. Do you know what destiny is?"
Bai Yan looked puzzled: "The Immortal Ship set sail more than 8,000 years ago, while the previous civilization was still on its home planet 50,000 years ago, and had not even received the blessing of the Pharmacist... There might be something wrong here."
"Is there something wrong with the timing?"
"I don't know, but my master did say that there's something wrong with this planet, and that outsiders can't normally get in."
Kiana pressed further, "Then how did your master get in?"
"Because she happened to get that special situation, and she had never heard of that person before."
