Durandal looked very serious.
She even wants to know what her past memories are like.
Bai Mo seemed to have noticed Durandal's anxious look, so she pondered and said, "Senior Bianca, you should have heard of Cecilia, right?"
"The previous user of the Black Abyss White Flower, the strongest S-rank Valkyrie of the previous Destiny, was also the saintess of the Shaniat family. I admire her greatly."
Faced with Bai Mo's sudden question, although Yulandel had doubts, she still answered truthfully.
Could Cecilia possibly be connected to her memories? Durandal didn't think so.
After all, according to the records of Schicksal, this saintess, who was worthy of the respect of all Schicksal, had already perished together with the Second Herrscher during the Second Honkai Impact.
"..."
Good grief, you haven't said a word about Cecilia being Siegfried's wife!
"So, is this related to my lost memories?"
Durandal pressed for an answer.
“They are related, and very closely related, including Siegfried.”
Bai Mo nodded solemnly.
"Siegfried..."
The man who supposedly touched the buttocks of every Valkyrie in Schicksal? Cecilia's husband?
Are you wondering why I suddenly brought up these two names?
Bai Mo smiled.
"Ah."
"Don't worry, you'll find out about that soon, Bianca-senpai." Bai Mo paused for a moment, then added, "But before that, may I ask a question?"
"You said."
Durandal showed great patience in this matter.
"Senior Bianca, you should know why Siegfried defected from Schicksal back then, right?"
"..."
Faced with Bai Mo's question, Youlandail was unable to answer it for a moment.
After all, there are many versions of this experience circulating within Destiny, so she didn't know which one to say for the time being.
"There are many versions circulating within Destiny regarding this issue, but if I had to guess, the version about saving people might be the most authentic."
Unexpectedly, it was Rita who spoke at this moment.
"Hmm! My girlish intuition tells me this is the answer!"
Alicia obediently raised her hand to speak.
"Rescue?"
Durandal scratched her head in confusion, but wasn't this topic getting a bit off-topic? Shouldn't we be talking about her memories?
“Miss Rita is right. The real reason that prompted Siegfried to defect from Schicksal was that he wanted to rescue his daughter, Kiana Kaslana, from Otto.”
Bai Mo gave Rita a meaningful look and said with a smile.
"But what...does all of this have to do with me?"
Durandal couldn't hold back any longer; after all, she couldn't very well be Kiana Kaslana herself, could she?
Kiana Kaslana is still alive and well, studying at St. Freya Academy.
Bai Mo smiled mysteriously, then composed himself before saying, "Baosheng... cough cough, Bianca Durandal Atagina! Because you are Kiana Kaslana!"
Well, actually she still couldn't grasp the essence of shrimp dumplings. Whether it was in terms of movements or tone, she was miles off.
Nevertheless, her words were still incredibly damaging to Durandal.
"This is impossible!"
Durandal almost instinctively retorted, after all, how could such a melodramatic thing happen to her?
Putting aside the possibility of that, the Kiana studying at St. Freya Academy couldn't possibly be a fake, could she?
It was a perfectly normal reaction. Seeing this, Bai Mo didn't rush to explain, but instead continued to tell Durandal the truth of the matter.
"During the Second Honkai Impact, Cecilia Schariac, the strongest S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, did not die because of rumors that she and Sirin perished together. The answer is the opposite: her death was caused by Otto launching a Honkai energy fission bomb into the center of the battlefield, which led to her and the Second Herrscher Sirin's deaths."
Durandal frowned at just this first sentence. Based on her understanding of Otto, it was indeed something he was capable of doing, but she chose to continue listening before she got the whole truth.
"That's why Siegfried was disappointed with Schicksal and Otto after learning the truth. So he planned to escape Schicksal with his daughter and not want his and Cecilia's child to suffer a terrible fate."
"But unfortunately, Otto had already made his move on Kiana by this time, and used her DNA, the DNA of the Second Herrscher Sirin, and the core of the Herrscher of the Void to create a clone named K-423. This clone also has an appearance that is exactly the same as Kiana's."
"So, unsurprisingly, the clone was discovered by Siegfried, who was in a hurry to take Kiana away, and he then planned to take the clone with him away from Schicksal as well."
"Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. Otto had known about Siegfried's series of plans all along, so the moment they left Schicksal, Otto sent out a pursuit force to stop them. The result was that although Siegfried successfully escaped, he lost Kiana and only took K-423 with him."
After finishing his explanation, Bai Mo shook his head and sighed, then looked at Yulandel again.
The truth is often cruel, and the following points are even more so.
"The real Kiana was hit in the head by a spacecraft and fell from a height of several thousand meters into a snow mountain. Fortunately, she did not die. Later, the Valkyrie Ragnar from Schicksal brought her back to headquarters for treatment, with Otto himself as her attending physician. He also induced and stimulated the potential within her. Unfortunately, although Kiana did not die, she lost all her previous memories."
"Moreover, due to the activation of her potential, her hair changed from its original silver-white color to golden curls."
Bai Mo stopped there, since she had already made it clear that Durandal was Kiana, so this was just a brief explanation and some background information.
Chapter 368 Durandal: Please help me regain my memories.
"So, my true identity is actually Kiana Kaslana, the daughter of Ms. Cecilia and Mr. Siegfried, and what you just described is my experience before I lost my memory, right?"
Durandal covered her forehead and asked again and again to confirm.
Although the story sounds somewhat surreal, for some reason, she always felt that it was so real, without any trace of fabrication.
“That’s right, that’s the story. Whether you believe me or not, Bianca-senpai, these are the truths.”
Five slender, white fingers tapped rhythmically on the table as Bai Mo rested his chin on his hand and spoke very seriously.
All she had to do now was wait, wait and see if Durandal could accept the truth.
As long as she shows even the slightest sign of wanting to accept it, Bai Mo will use the power of the Herrscher of Knowledge to restore all of Durandal's lost memories.
Of course, there is another way: let Durandal enter the Stigmata Space belonging to Kaslana and let her find her memories on her own. But unfortunately, Durandal does not seem to have the qualifications at present, so we can only rely on external forces.
"Lady Durandal, whatever choice you make, Rita will support you."
Seeing Durandal's solemn expression and furrowed brows, Rita couldn't help but speak up.
"Cute girl, be brave and move forward! Explore your past; it might be a wonderful memory!"
Similarly, Alicia smiled and encouraged them.
All eyes were immediately drawn to Durandal, eagerly awaiting her decision.
By accepting this memory and facing her true self, she can also continue to live as Bianca Durandal Atagina.
After all, the memories she had lost represented her birth, and what followed was her rebirth.
Of course, if Durandal doesn't want to accept these memories, Bai Mo won't force her. However, Siegfried will be upset about it for quite some time. Kiana will also lose an older sister? Probably.
However, these are all just speculations. After all, Bai Mo still believes that Yulandel will face her past squarely.
"I......"
After a long while, Durandal raised her head and glanced at everyone present with a complicated expression.
Should I accept this memory? Accept the proof that I once lived as Kiana Kaslana?
If she were to accept this, what would the other Kiana Kaslana think? After all, she was no longer "her" no longer, was she?
The strongest Valkyrie, who was once infinitely glorious on the battlefield and even dared to face the Herrscher directly, is now facing a difficult choice.
Seeing Durandal's alternating nod and shake of her head, Bai Mo seemed to have figured out what she was worried about. After all, as a Herrscher of Consciousness, he was quite sensitive to such emotions and consciousness.
"I think you should take a look at this."
So, in times like these, one should lend a helping hand. As Bai Mo spoke, he took out a photo from the inside pocket of his clothes.
The photo shows Kiana, also known as Durandal, with Siegfried in an amusement park. The father and daughter are smiling and holding hands, with a giant Homu doll next to them.
"This is......"
"This photo of you and Siegfried is one I copied from him when I last met him."
(Actually, it's constructed based on memory~)
"..."
As she took the photo from Bai Mo's hand, for some reason, the moment her fingers touched it, she felt a surge of emotion she had never experienced before.
It seemed as if a voice was constantly telling her from within, "That was you, the you of the past, and your father."
"But I am no longer her..."
Durandal held the photo in both hands, head bowed, murmuring to herself.
At this point, Durandal already believed that what Bai Mo had said before was true, because no matter what, the excitement in her heart could not be faked.
"Perhaps you can no longer be considered 'her,' but 'she' is still you, isn't she?"
"After all, whether it's Kiana Kaslana or Bianca Durandal Atagina, they are the same individual."
Bai Mo said gently.
"What about the other Kiana? What will she think?"
At this point, Durandal asked the question that concerned her most.
"Hmm... perhaps if you could recall your past memories, Bianca-senpai, you wouldn't say that."
Well, things have come to this point. Since Durandal was able to ask this question, it means that she has already accepted her true identity deep down. Now, as long as we answer her questions, this matter can be brought to a perfect close.
"why?"
"The reason is simple. After all, when you first met Kiana, you told Siegfried that you wanted her to be your sister."
