Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

They looked at each other, and the two who had hurt each other both became dejected.

Tsk, they didn't actually fight...

Shihen took a big gulp of cola through the straw, feeling incredibly regretful.

"Is it just about trying hard...?"

Ignoring Theresa and Himeko's mutual betrayal, Mei bit her lip, her face full of resentment.

She does not deny the importance of hard work.

But at this moment, she wanted a way to quickly gain strength.

The thought of how, even when she used all her strength in her Herrscher form, she was still like a pet, completely at the mercy of that white-haired man, made Mei feel secretly anxious.

Not to mention, she can no longer become a Herrscher.

Having experienced the power of the Herrscher, the girl felt as insignificant as an ant.

In particular, according to Shihen, Theresa, and others, it is highly likely that [Walter White] has obtained the power of the Herrscher of Thunder and has become even more powerful and monstrous.

How could someone as weak as her possibly kill that white-haired demon and avenge her father?

Just as she was feeling annoyed, Mei suddenly felt her hand being held, and a warm feeling followed.

Looking up, the girl was met with a gentle smile and a voice as soft as a spring breeze yet strong: "Mei, the weather is so nice, let's put those unhappy things aside for now."

Mei was startled by the boy's bright eyes. When she came to her senses, she nodded slightly, and her mood relaxed a little.

Seeing this, Shihen smiled and naturally released the girl's hand, pointed to several floating objects in the distance, and said, "The weather is perfect, let's all go fly kites?"

Spring outings naturally wouldn't be complete without traditional entertainment.

Chapter 170 Betrayer and Freedom

In the clear blue sky, a white cat posing as a lucky cat is flying through the air, accompanied by a string of silvery laughter.

"Haha~ Look how high my kite flies!"

Kiana excitedly shouted as she loosened the string, making the white cat smaller and smaller.

No matter what kind of game it is, once they start playing, the white-haired dumpling is always the most excited one.

"Kiana, kites aren't necessarily better the higher they fly; lowering them appropriately makes them easier to control."

Fu Hua retorted gently, while simultaneously controlling a bitter gourd to draw a perfect figure-eight shape in the air.

She wasn't originally supposed to get a kite from Shihen's kite-making team, but because Theresa and the other woman were mindful of their adult status, they had Fu Hua do it instead.

Although theresa often came over for meals, and Fu Hua had gradually become familiar with Shi Hen and the others, she was still a stranger among them. The considerate headmaster was afraid that she would feel awkward because of this.

However, Theresa and Himeko had another argument about whether to fly the bitter gourd kite or the phoenix kite, and in the end, the headmaster won the right to fly the bitter gourd kite by paying a fee.

This is a victory for the power of money.

"..."

Looking at the green bitter gourd that seemed to come alive, and then at her own white cat shivering in the wind, Kiana felt a strong sense of provocation.

"Kiana, height is important, but technique can't be ignored either."

Laughing and agreeing, Shihen also manipulated a red and white robot to write the letter 'k' in the air.

Although he hadn't flown a kite many times before, he had the cheat code [Gundaruf].

How can you assume that a kite cannot be used as a weapon?

Everything can fall apart anyway.

If he is idealistic enough, there is nothing in this world that cannot be used as a weapon.

Upon hearing the boy's voice, Kiana felt as if a string in her mind had snapped completely.

The line was retracted, the white cat's altitude dropped rapidly, and then...

"Whoa! Take this!"

A white cat suddenly swooped through the air and pounced on the bitter gourd, but they eventually separated by several body lengths.

Clearly, without powerful external assistance, the white fluffy ball was ultimately unable to develop the weapon usage of the kite.

But that's okay, even though the girl doesn't have any cheat codes herself, she can call on other people's cheat codes.

"Hen, come help me!"

Kiana stamped her feet and chose to provide off-court assistance.

Seeing the fluffy little ball of fur looking exasperated, Shi Hen shook his head helplessly: "Fu Hua, be careful!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the robot pounced precisely on the bitter gourd.

But even when faced with the menacing robot, Bitter Gourd did not surrender easily; he simply dodged to the side.

"Shihen, kites are very fragile. Doing this will only result in mutual destruction."

Fu Hua earnestly advised him.

Even though the materials of the new era are much stronger than paper, once two kites collide, the result is no different from that of the past.

"Enough with the nonsense, let me take you down first!"

Despite its aggressive shouts, the white cat under Kiana's control remained on the edge, observing the situation.

This white cat clearly has its own ideas.

“Fu Hua, as you can see, this is not something that you or I can decide.”

With a helpless sigh, Shihen's robot once again chased after the bitter gourd.

The other party still owes him a Garuda factor, so let's collect some interest now.

The boy couldn't help but feel depressed when he thought about the battle he fought in the Third Honkai Battlefield.

Fu Hua is a fusion warrior, and she even won, but the system stubbornly refused to give her the settlement reward.

Does this mean we have to defeat the fusion warriors in their man-made collapse state to obtain the fusion factor?

He felt that the system was becoming increasingly useless.

If you really want to rely on this system to carry you, you might as well rely on yourself.

On the other side, Fu Hua hurriedly controlled the bitter gourd to dodge, while also having to prevent the strings of the two kites from getting tangled and knotted. She could only sigh softly.

Being a spy is such a hassle; she simply can't understand what's going on in these people's minds.

Watching the two kites chasing and fleeing in the sky, Mei, standing beside her, couldn't help but feel a stirring in her heart.

She also has a lot of experience in kite handling.

But before the girl could control her swallows to join the battle, a blue butterfly blocked her path.

"Mei, you'd better watch out..."

She said softly, "I'll pull the silken thread and let the butterfly slowly approach the swallow."

Meanwhile, on the other side, a yellow Houmu was also eyeing the scene menacingly.

"..."

Looking at the expressions on Seele and Bronya's faces, Mei had a feeling that the two of them seemed to have ulterior motives.

But then, without thinking much, the girl pulled the silk thread and made the swallow shake off the butterfly and fly towards Houmu.

Compared to Seele, a novice, Bronya is more challenging.

She had just observed that the other person was also quite good at flying kites.

In an instant, the six kites split into two battlegrounds, starting a chase in the sky.

"Tsk, young people are so energetic."

Watching the kites chase and play around under the control of the crowd, Himeko couldn't help but sigh deeply while drinking her cola.

"It's not too late if you want to go, there's still a kite here."

Theresa glanced at the red-haired woman, but this time she didn't say anything sarcastic.

"Forget it, that's a stage for young people now."

Himeko shook her head.

Even though she says she's still young, she's well aware of her own physical condition.

She has been a Valkyrie for eight years now, since joining Schicksal.

An eight-year service period is quite rare even within the entire Valkyrie unit.

Considering her age when she underwent the artificial stigma experiment, even Himeko herself thinks it's a miracle that she's still alive and kicking.

"Ji Zi..."

Hearing the weariness in the woman's voice, Theresa's eyes dimmed slightly.

Unlike her, who is naturally endowed with strong Honkai energy adaptability, Himeko is just an ordinary person in every aspect.

Without artificial stigma technology, the other party could never have become a Valkyrie.

But eventually, she will have to pay the price for forcibly pursuing things that don't belong to her.

Or rather, this is the price humanity must pay to fight against the collapse.

"Haha, don't worry, I'm not that easy to kick the bucket." With a hearty laugh, Himeko recovered from her disappointment faster than Theresa. "I'm a teacher, how can I fall down before my students have truly grown up?"

"If you really want to be a good teacher, you need to quit drinking first. Kiana has complained to me about it several times this month!"

Theresa laughed and scolded back.

"I think I'll pass. I can't stand a world without alcohol for even a second!"

After chugging down the cola in her hand, Himeko instantly abandoned her ideals.

Theresa: "..."

Sure enough, he was an alcoholic.

It's ridiculous. How could she possibly think this guy could change his nature?

Meanwhile, as Theresa and Himeko broke up again, the kite chase in the sky also came to an early end due to an accident.

Swish!

Pulled by the silk thread, the white cat pounced and crashed into the robot, causing both kites to immediately fall to the ground.

Shi Hen: “…”

He suspected that the white furry ball was an undercover agent sent by the other side.

"I'm so sorry, I meant to run over Fu Hua..."

Under the boy's gaze, Kiana lowered her head in shame.

"It's just a kite, having fun is the most important thing." Taking the opportunity to ruffle the white fluffy ball's soft hair, Shihen said with a smile, "Thanks to your idea, I had a lot of fun just now too."

"That's right, Kiana, you don't need to worry about it."

Fu Hua also chimed in agreement.

Bronya suggested flying the kite.

The expressionless gray-haired loli spoke, while completely loosening the threads.

In an instant, the yellow Houmu flew higher and higher, quickly becoming a small dot in the sky.

“Seele is here too.”

As she spoke, Seele quickly followed Bronya's lead.

Without much hesitation, Mei and Fu Hua also released their kites.

"Everyone……"

Looking up at everyone, Kiana couldn't help but feel her eyes well up with tears.

"There's another one with Teacher Himeko."
