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

As she questioned him, Kiana gritted her teeth in hatred.

hateful!

So, before she even realized it, that bastard Walter White had already set his sights on the boy!?

"..."

Without pausing, Yae Sakura skipped the girl's question and didn't answer, "In short, if Miss Kiana can fully control the power of the Herrscher, I will tell you how to find Lord Time Mark."

Furthermore, it would be best if Ms. Kiana could be faster.

After all, there are quite a few people who covet the Disease Gem and the Tranquility Gem.

"Well……"

Kiana gritted her teeth, a thoughtful expression on her face, and quickly nodded. "You'd better not be lying to me, otherwise..."

Even if you're incredibly beautiful, witch, I won't show you any mercy!

Although she knew that Yae Sakura might have other motives, the thought of possibly seeing the boy again made her fearless of any danger.

Even if she had to face Walter White head-on, she would not back down!

"Please trust me this time, Miss Kiana."

Nodding slightly, Yae Sakura then opened the wooden food box in her other hand, revealing a dazzling array of Far Eastern delicacies inside. "However, before everything officially begins, would Miss Kiana be willing to have dinner with me?"

As she spoke, a hint of helplessness appeared in the shrine maiden's eyes.

According to the original plan, she should still be with Durandal.

Even though the distance from the Destiny Floating Island to the World Serpent headquarters wasn't too far, the former strongest Valkyrie of Destiny, who was extremely righteous, couldn't bear to see people suffer because of the Honkai. So, their itinerary included fighting monsters, which meant they hadn't been able to reach the World Serpent base for several days.

Even under these circumstances, the boy still called her over, saying that they needed to add a scene at the last minute.

Hmm, adding more scenes... Although the reason was plausible, Yae Sakura still saw through the main purpose of tonight at a glance—it was nothing more than someone worrying that the white fluffy dumpling wouldn't have any food.

"Gu..."

Smelling the aroma of food wafting in the air, Kiana subconsciously swallowed, but still firmly shook her head, determined to resist the enemy's sugar-coated bullets. "No, I've already..."

Gululu~

A loud voice rang out, instantly shattering all the girl's composure.

"Miss Kiana, come along."

I made a little too much today; I can't finish it all by myself.

Smiling, Yae Sakura knelt down in the wilderness without any sign of disgust, picking up a piece of tempura and chewing and swallowing it with relish.

"Well……"

Seeing the shrine maiden enjoying her meal, Kiana finally gave up her resistance and sat down opposite Yae Sakura. "Hmph! Don't think I'll forgive you just because of this!"

She would never forget the scene of the boy sacrificing himself in front of her.

As she thought about it, Kiana picked up a rice ball and took a big bite, as if these were the World Serpent and the members of Schicksal who had caused the boy's death.

Despite being stared at fiercely by the white-haired girl, Yae Sakura showed no displeasure and looked at the girl with motherly tenderness.

Despite the significant differences in appearance, the identical rare white hair and the way she fights desperately for someone always remind Yae Sakura of Kallen.

If she and Karen could be together...

Shaking her head slightly to stop her thoughts, Yae Sakura subtly slowed down her eating.

Based on her understanding of the Kaslana bloodline, Kiana was capable of eating all of this food.

Chapter Sixty-One: Mei's Radiance and the New Leader of Anti-Entropy Alliance

St. Freya, Himeko's dormitory.

Standing before this door that would never again be opened by its owner, Mei took a long breath and said, "Hen, I'm coming in."

There was no response, as expected, but Mei waited quietly for three seconds before pushing open the door and going in.

Looking around, you see a simply styled bedroom. The black and white polka-dot bedding is neatly folded on the bed, and a large book with a bookmark is still on the desk, as if its owner has only left for a short while and will soon return with a glass of water or some snacks.

Mei let out a long breath to suppress the sadness that was welling up in her heart, and quickly began to sort out and organize the boy's personal belongings.

Although the war that took place at Schicksal headquarters has ended, St. Freya Academy has announced an indefinite suspension of classes in order to guard against possible retaliation from Schicksal headquarters. All teachers and students who are willing to follow Theresa will be relocated to another more heavily guarded base.

There, they will continue their fight against the Honkai.

Therefore, these few days are the last time they can stay in St. Freya.

And from then on, even Theresa didn't know when she would be able to return to the academy.

Listening to the incessant noise outside and looking at the bedroom where not even a speck of dust had accumulated, Mei's sadness deepened.

Instead of letting this emotion spread unchecked, Mei quickly sorted the boy's belongings into several cardboard boxes, and a deep sense of melancholy welled up in her eyes.

She found nothing in the boy's desk drawer or among the books that were prominently displayed, that could be described as a suicide note.

Perhaps, the moment the boy obtained the Plague Gem, he had already decided that even at the cost of his life, he would definitely save Kiana.

"Idiot, why are you always so silly..."

Mei couldn't help but curse as she gently stroked the slightly dull red bracelet on her wrist.

During the Third Honkai Impact, the boy, knowing he was no match for her, still charged at her, hoping to gain even the slightest chance to awaken her.

Now, several years later, the other party's enthusiasm and decisiveness have not diminished in the slightest.

The only change is that the Herrscher of the Void is far more brutal and insane than she was when she transformed into the Third Herrscher.

So the boy paid the price with his life.

But Mei believed that in the final moments before falling, the boy's face would be smiling, because he had done what he wanted to do.

Can't you think about me a little more?

We clearly agreed that once Ping An left the Destiny headquarters, we would...

Clutching the metal ring tightly in her hand, Mei's heart was completely filled with bitterness.

"Mei, are you all done here?"

A calm voice rang out as Bronya led Seele in.

"Yes, I've got everything packed up here. How about you guys?"

Trying to suppress her sadness, Mei asked softly, her lips curving into a smile.

According to the division of labor, she would handle the boy's belongings, while Kiana's items would be given to Bronya and Kiana.

"Bronya and I have also packed Kiana's things."

Seele spoke, her cheeks slightly flushed.

Although Kiana seems carefree and easygoing on the surface, she has a whole box full of risqué comics under her bed, and the XP is very clearly pointing to someone.

I really don't understand where this guy got so many contraband items from.

Furthermore, you shouldn't just keep fantasizing in your head; you should take more concrete actions.

If you had just been a little more proactive, Captain Hen wouldn't have ended up like this...

She glanced cautiously at Mei in front of her, and could only sigh deeply in her heart.

She ultimately did not see the outcome for these people.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Unaware of Seele's hidden thoughts, Mei simply nodded gently to the two of them.

As Kiana's teammate, helping her organize her belongings should have been her task.

"Compared to you, Mei, we are nothing."

Bronya shook her head, a visible sadness showing on her face.

From an emotional perspective, Mei should actually stay away from this room.

Seeing these objects will remind you of the boy, and having Mei organize his belongings will only cause him further harm.

But... when Mei made this request, even Theresa and Himeko couldn't refuse.

"Hen is gone, and we should all learn to accept that."

Forcing a smile, Mei said softly, "If Hen were still here, he wouldn't want to see us always immersed in sadness."

"Mea Yi..."

Seeing the girl's smile, which looked more like a grimace, Seele's eyes immediately filled with pity.

Knowing Mei's feelings for the boy, she knew that the sadness in his heart was no less than that between her and her sister Bronya.

"I'm fine, I'm really fine."

As if trying to convince herself, Mei looked out the window at the St. Freya scenery, which seemed unfamiliar and novel from a different angle, and wondered what the boy would feel when he saw it.

Quickly regaining her composure, Mei continued, "Right now, Kiana is definitely wandering outside all alone."

That guy probably thinks Hen's sacrifice was all his fault, and he's so scared and worried that he can't sleep or eat properly, maybe he even stops showering and smells terrible.

As she spoke, Mei shook her head and couldn't help but laugh.

"That idiot Kiana would definitely do that."

Bronya echoed this, a slight, helpless smile curving her lips.

"Therefore, we should find her even more."

As she spoke, Mei's expression gradually hardened. "Who does that girl think she is? Does she really think she's that important?"

He was never the price for saving anyone.

He simply... became a hero!

As she spoke, Mei clenched her fists, and a red ring, like an arc of electricity, flickered slightly in her purple eyes.

Although Mei sometimes complains about Kiana's weakness and lack of ambition, she understands even more clearly that Kiana is just another victim in this incident.

Moreover, whether he was saving her or saving Kiana, the boy's radiance was always so dazzling and radiant.

Mei didn't want that light to disappear and be extinguished.

She believed that this was the best way to remember the boy.

"..."

Bronya and Seele exchanged a glance, but said nothing. They simply reached out and took Mei's hand.

In the tranquil atmosphere, the three girls reached a consensus.

-------------------------------------

On the other side, in the principal's office.

Looking out the window at the relocation teams, Theresa couldn't help but sigh deeply: "Once we leave this time, I really don't know when I'll be able to come back."

St. Freya recruits students from all over the world, and most of them are from countries within the jurisdiction of Destiny.

Given the increasingly tense relationship with the headquarters of Schicksal, keeping St. Freya is far too risky and irresponsible towards the safety of the students.

In this situation, shutting down St. Freya is almost the only option.

Despite understanding all this, seeing the academy, which she had poured her heart and soul into for so many years, destroyed in an instant, Theresa couldn't help but feel a deep sadness.

"You should be glad it's still the Christmas holiday and most of the students aren't here, otherwise things would be much more complicated than they are now."

Himeko took a full gulp from the bottle and smiled helplessly.

“St. Freya’s students are never a problem.”

With her eyelids slightly lowered, Theresa retorted softly.

"Yes, they are all a group of children that we are proud of."

But that's precisely why we can't drag them down with us.

Himeko shook her head and added, her expression immediately darkening, "It's a pity that some children have already been implicated by us."

"Um……"
