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

"Indeed, we really owe a lot to Miss Durandal this time."

Shihen wisely agreed.

Walter's spirit is a belief, and gratitude is the foundation of being human, so he naturally chose to have it all.

"Haha... I just did what I could."

Durandal glanced furtively at Fu Hua beside her and gave a slightly embarrassed smile.

In fact, if Fu Hua hadn't reminded her of this, she might still be unaware of what had happened.

After learning more about it, she could no longer ignore Shihen's situation.

For the inspection team, it's understandable to be cautious, given that it involves the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance.

The fact that the police didn't directly torture the teenager shows that the police squad was already being very lenient.

As for Shihen, he was simply acting out of gratitude and honesty, so he was not wrong.

Both sides were clearly right, but the end result was that they hurt each other, and Durandal certainly didn't want to see that happen.

Since there was a mistake that needed to be corrected and she had the ability to do so, the girl naturally chose to step forward.

"But this is a very important thing for us, and we will always remember Miss Durandal's kindness."

Mei shook her head slightly and said in an extremely serious tone.

If Shihen were really imprisoned for several years for such a bizarre reason, she couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't do something drastic.

As she thought about it, Mei couldn't help but glare at the boy with a hint of annoyance.

Honestly, knowing the consequences of his actions, why can't this guy just back down a little?!

Sensing the reproach in Mei's gaze, Shihen could only offer a helpless, ingratiating smile.

If he had backed down then, how could he have established himself as a man of unyielding integrity, and how could he have attracted Durandal's intervention?

Well, although there was indeed an element of chance involved, it was generally as he had expected.

Even without this incident, he would have contacted Durandal, the strongest Valkyrie, in other ways.

Having finally managed to keep Durandal in St. Freya, he didn't want her to keep going in circles here.

Given Durandal's popularity—she can easily find a bunch of little gifts just by going out for a stroll—what could she possibly find here?

Therefore, the other party needs a little help.

The only thing that surprised Shihen was how quickly the other party intervened.

Given Durandal's extraordinary "perceptiveness," the girl should have taken several days to realize this.

In any case, since Durandal made him make it to Kiana's birthday party, then Shihen will naturally make sure he makes it to Kiana's birthday party as well.

How could Kiana's birthday party be complete without her?

Shihen glanced at Durandal and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Noticing the boy's little action, Kiana blew out all sixteen candles on the cake with a whoosh, then stood with her hands on her hips, pointing a finger directly at Durandal, and said, "Durandal, I challenge you!"

Who cares if she's the strongest Valkyrie or not?

Don't expect Kiana Kaslana to admit this until you actually fight her.

"Huh? Now?"

Looking around, Durandal said somewhat uncomfortably.

It was her first time attending someone else's birthday party, and she didn't know whether she should agree to Kiana's request.

If she agreed, after all, it was the other person's birthday, and she wouldn't feel comfortable beating them up.

If you disagree, it is still the other person's birthday after all.

"That's right! That's my birthday wish this year!"

Kiana said casually.

To defeat Durandal and become the new strongest Valkyrie—that was her birthday wish.

"Kia~na~"

Theresa clenched her fist involuntarily, her eyelids twitching wildly.

Sure enough, she knew this child wouldn't behave.

If we don't cause her some trouble, Kiana won't be Kiana.

"Well, in that case."

Nodding vigorously, Durandal's face showed a serious expression.

Birthday wishes should be fulfilled as much as possible; this is the lesson Rita taught her.

"Headmistress, let Kiana give it a try." Pulling back the nearly frantic Theresa, Shihen gave Durandal an apologetic look. "Thank you for your trouble, Miss Durandal."

"I will do my best."

Durandal's expression was serious, as if she regarded this challenge as an important task.

Shi Hen: “…”

Actually, you can just let the water run.

"Hen! Whose side are you on anyway?"

Seeing the boy and Durandal exchanging glances again, Kiana immediately became angry.

"Then I wish Miss Kiana a great success."

Shihen looked helpless.

Does this fluffy little thing really think it can beat the strongest Valkyrie?

Knowing full well that she would get beaten up, she still insisted on launching the challenge, and even he couldn't quite understand Kiana's thought process.

Amidst the commotion, a group of people arrived at the open space outside.

Under the full moon's glow, two girls, one with golden hair and the other with snow-white hair, stood facing each other, a cold night wind blowing by, carrying a chilling atmosphere.

"ah!"

With a loud shout, Kiana charged towards Durandal, and then...

There's no after that.

Looking at the lone full moon hanging in the winter night sky, Kiana's mind was in a complete fog.

who am I?

where am I?

What am I supposed to do?

Before the girl could even figure out what had happened, Kiana saw a hand appear in her field of vision, followed by a gentle voice: "Are you alright, Kiana?"

"Hmph!" Kiana slapped the hand away forcefully and scrambled to her feet. "I was just careless this time. Next time... next time, I'll definitely win!"

"Then I'll wait."

Without exposing the girl's stubbornness, Durandal smiled and said.

Although she didn't believe the other person could defeat her, she didn't dislike courageous people.

"Well--"

Back at the table, while eating cake, Kiana still glared at the strongest Valkyrie with hostility.

"Excuse me, is there something I did wrong?"

Feeling the burning gaze of the white fluffy ball, Durandal asked somewhat awkwardly.

She doesn't attend these kinds of events often and isn't sure if what she did was in accordance with the rules.

In fact, if Fu Hua hadn't been in this small group, and if these people hadn't been connected to [Walter White], she would never have accepted Shihen's invitation.

Strictly speaking, she wasn't familiar with this group of people at all.

"Kia~na~"

Seeing the white fluffy ball being so rude, Theresa's eyebrows twitched again.

What's wrong with this guy today? He's been doing all sorts of weird things.

Himeko is still recovering, and a lot has happened at the academy recently. She finally managed to find time to celebrate Himeko's birthday with her. Can't this silly niece give her a break?!

You're always so greedy. Today, you could at least learn from Cangxuan Zhishu and eat your cake quietly. Didn't you see that this tiny doll has almost eaten half of the cake?

"I'm saying, are you really only fourteen years old, and you haven't lied about your age!?"

With her gaze fixed intently on the sins on Durandal's chest, Kiana gritted her teeth and asked.

It's one thing to be inferior to her opponent in terms of strength, but she simply cannot tolerate losing in this aspect as well.

Look at that wickedness, it's on par with Mei's! Is this what a fourteen-year-old should be like?!

Even though she's already sixteen years old, she still...

Thinking of this, Kiana subconsciously looked down and felt an overwhelming bitterness rise in her heart.

When will she finally grow up?

While secretly sighing, Kiana noticed the boy's frequent glances at the blonde girl and immediately glared at him.

She always felt that Shihen cared too much about this strongest Valkyrie.

According to the information, I should be fourteen years old.

"Youlandel said earnestly."

"Fourteen……"

As she murmured softly, the light in the eyes of the gray-haired girl, who was also fourteen years old, immediately disappeared.

We're all fourteen years old, so why...?

Looking at Seele's increasingly slender and shapely figure beside her, Bronya silently swallowed the tears in her heart.

“Bronya, you are good enough as you are now, you don’t need to change anything.”

Sensing the girl's feelings, Seele smiled and gently took Bronya's hand.

Bronya: "..."

But she wanted to change.

"In the documents?"

Mei found the keywords.

Do I really need to rely on data just to determine my age?

“Well, it’s not really a secret.” As she spoke, Durandal’s face showed a hint of helplessness. “According to the bishop… no, I mean my former attending physician, I suffered some injuries when I was a child, so I don’t remember anything before that.”

"So there's a possibility that he's falsifying his age?"

Kiana immediately grasped the key point.

She knew it; how could fourteen years old be that old?

"Maybe."

Sensing the sudden sharpness of the white fluffy ball, Durandal scratched her cheek, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

She doesn't really care about her age.

Compared to these insignificant things, she wanted to become stronger, even stronger than that [Walter White].

Not counting the hasty clash last time, Durandal has already deeply realized the terrifying strength of [Walter White].

To defeat her opponent and figure out the man's true purpose, she must become stronger.

"Eat your cake, and stop prying into other people's business!"

Theresa said helplessly to stop him.
