Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

Yes, this is a crucial moment.

She has always had bad luck with cards, but she really enjoys drawing cards.

Gamble with your luck, shine brightly in despair, and gain unparalleled joy.

She's the kind of person who's both bad at smoking and loves to play games.

Superstitious and superstitious, he likes to shake the card pool around when drawing cards, hoping to dazzle himself and draw good items.

All these ideas, when brought together, culminate in one thing: handwashing.

Ziyao got up and went to the bathroom, carefully washing her already clean hands.

The girl in the mirror was very fair-skinned, large-breasted, and cute.

Immediately afterwards, she approached Kiana, who was playing Final Kallen Fantasy.

"Hey, hey, what happened?"

Her hands were suddenly taken, and Ziyao looked at her face intently.

Paramecium's face turned red instantly; was this the prelude to a confession?

At this point, whether it's a game or not is no longer important.

If it were anyone else, they wouldn't put down the controller if they were really into the game.

"Kiana, what I'm about to say is very important."

"Mmm, mmm... I'll listen carefully."

My heart pounded, anticipating what the girl in front of me might say next.

Did I suddenly discover how cute she is, or do I like her more than Mei?

Thoughts flashed through my mind quickly; the more ideas I had, the hotter my ears felt.

Ziyao said in a serious tone, "---Share some of my luck with me."

"what???"

Volume 1: Chapter 214 Confirming the Relationship (Pseudo)

[Ding! You have obtained a Shrine Maiden's Amulet*1 (Gold)!]

After a series of useless fragments and materials, the SSR arrived as expected.

Ziyao secretly made a mental note that she would definitely try to summon Kiana before drawing cards in the future.

[Item Description: Amulet made by the shrine maiden Shion, which can protect the purity of the soul (for personal use only)]

Other attributes: +2 Spirit, +2 Abstinence

"A tool to protect one's spirit... unfortunately, it's only for myself."

Ziyao's first thought was to give it to Kiana, and then she saw the contents in parentheses.

The girl is still affected by the collapse, which is worrying.

Current Crystals: *3821

Clicking the draw button again, Ziyao hoped to get the Spirit Power Potion.

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining Colt - Special Edition *1 (White)]

Item Description: Fires one anti-magic bullet with a one-day cooldown, after which it fires regular large-caliber ammunition.

ha?

What the hell is this?

This is the first time I've seen an item with a white rarity, without even a rarity rating.

Ziyao's intuition told her that this thing was very powerful.

It feels heavy, weighing about 1.5 times that of a regular handgun.

The cool-toned lighting complements the light gray gun body, highlighting the dangerous bright silver.

It feels cool to the touch and is quite heavy.

Upon entering the combat simulation room, we found several shooting targets.

The target combines scoring functionality with a special energy field that maintains its position, making it impossible for firearms to destroy.

Turn off the safety and load the gun.

This is a large-caliber gun, so Ziyao chose to hold it with both hands, shifting her weight to her shoulders, and aiming at the bullseye.

Outside, Bronya had just finished her training and was gaining a deeper understanding of the Herrscher's power.

As I strolled down the corridor, I wondered if I should go back to my room first.

She had something she wanted to tell Ziyao.

Make sure to close it properly and lock the door from the inside.

Only then can she feel at ease speaking her mind.

Suddenly, a gunshot rang out.

The girl's mournful cries interrupted her thoughts.

Pushing open the half-closed door, she saw Ziyao kneeling on the ground, her left hand tightly covering her right wrist, her pretty face pale.

Bronya rushed forward to ask what had happened.

"I can't handle that thing right now."

Ziyao glanced at the silver-gray pistol on the ground and muttered, her wrist feeling like it was being torn apart.

He masturbated too hard and hurt himself.

Not far away, a black hole was blasted into the target, and smoke was still rising slightly from it.

Bronya went back and quickly returned with a medicine box.

"Bear with it, I'll apply it for you."

First, take out a cotton swab, dip it in disinfectant alcohol, and then gently apply it.

The girl's delicate body trembled slightly the moment the cotton swab touched her skin.

It's icy cold and a little itchy.

The cotton swab was rubbed, and the clear liquid was evenly applied to the skin.

It was hard to talk about, but the strange feeling was inexplicably comfortable.

However, this is only based on the premise that there is no external injury.

If there is an external injury, then it is raw, unadulterated pain.

"You're so skilled..."

After wiping with alcohol for disinfection, apply anti-swelling and pain-relieving lotion, and then wrap it with bandages.

"Simple medical treatment and bandaging are essential skills for Valkyries."

This is the obvious thing, as she put it.

"Sister, don't you know how to use a gun? Do you need Bronya to teach you?"

The wrist injury is a clear indication that the hand was twisted due to improper use of a gun.

"Even with handguns, large-caliber bullets have a lot of recoil, and there have been cases of children accidentally killing themselves."

"In the past? Come to think of it, Bronya is quite familiar with firearms."

"I worked as an assassin in Siberia for a time. A group of children were forced to undergo training, and the useless ones were abandoned in the wild to be eaten by bears."

That's in the past, and Bronya never cared about it.

Using a third-person perspective and tone, it tells a story that seems to have nothing to do with the speaker.

Ziyao, however, thought differently and instead reached out to stroke her face.

"Thanks for your hard work."

"Belated thanks and consolation are like obsolete electronic programs—worthless."

"...But thank you anyway, Sister Ziyao."

Bronya did not resist being touched. In this situation, she recalled what Ziyao had said to her in the Quantum Sea under another identity.

[Ding! Affection +3, currently at: 78]

Bronya considers you an irreplaceable friend.

Is Bronya really that easy to seduce?

Upon seeing the system's notification, Ziyao couldn't help but feel puzzled.

In the past two days, just by spending time with him and showing him ordinary care, his favorability rating has increased from 68 to 78.

At 60, they are just ordinary good friends; at 70, they are extremely close friends; and beyond that, they are family and even romantic partners.

I've been stuck at 80 affection points before, so it'll probably be the same this time.

Ziyao found the affection level indicator a bit annoying, so she turned it off again.

"Sister Ziyao, I have something I'd like to ask you."

Bronya took a deep breath, wanting to take that important first step.

She no longer referred to herself by her name, but instead used "I," which represents her personal will.

The girl knelt in front of Ziyao, her tone earnest.

With a somewhat accusatory air about her, Ziyao instinctively straightened her back and listened attentively.

Do you remember what happened in the apartment?

"Um....."

It's over.

Is this a prelude to settling scores later?
