Honkai Impact: Starting from Wandering with Kiana

"..."

It might be funny... but hearing Bronya say it so calmly and expressionlessly, Jiuxiao suddenly didn't find it funny at all...

Duang~

Kiana tapped Bronya on the head and said angrily, "There's no need to talk about this!"

Bronya rolled her eyes at Kiana, then covered her head and ran to find Mei. "Mei-neechan~ You idiot Kiana hit me!"

"You damn Bronya! Don't you dare tell Mei on this!"

Mei and Jiuxiao watched the group playfully bickering, smiling but saying nothing.

After dinner, everyone went to Jiuxiao's house. Walter and Himeko were both school teachers, and their houses weren't far apart.

Since only Welt and Jiuxiao live in Jiuxiao's house, there's a lot of empty space, so Jiuxiao specially set up a room full of computers and game consoles. Bronya, Huihuo, and Kiana are all addicted to games, and they often drag Mei over to sit with Jiuxiao in a five-player squad.

Although everyone's room is equipped with a computer, it's definitely more fun to play games together in a friendly voice chat when everyone is sitting together.

"What are we playing today? Houmu Alliance, Honkai Impact 3rd, or something else?" Jiuxiao asked.

These are all games that Jiu Xiao carefully studied and referenced to create. However, he only provided the gameplay and general ideas, and Cortana completed the rest. Jiu Xiao then made modifications based on these ideas.

However, after the game was completed, Jiuxiao open-sourced it, allowing players and experts to brainstorm and create their own game instances or storylines. Cortana would then select the best entries and incorporate them into the game, giving the majority of the profits to the creators.

"Honkai Impact 3rd! A new boss is coming out today, so let Kiana open the boss rewards." Bronya said to everyone, pointing to the event page.

"You brat, you only think of me when you're looting corpses!"

Kiana was furious. Ever since Bronya found out about her good luck, she'd always made Kiana help her loot corpses and throw loot. This was the only time Bronya was ever truly polite and kind to Kiana.

However, Kiana herself also enjoys playing games, and Bronya is a pro player who doesn't spend any money on in-game purchases, so it's really fun to be carried by Bronya.

"Okay, I'll unleash explosive damage, you guys lie down and relax."

Hui Huo put on her headphones. Her shooting talent wasn't just in real life; she was also very talented in the game. The only problem was that she often got grazed and taken out by unknown area-of-effect attacks, which perfectly described her personality.

“I’m fine with anything…” Mei said quietly.

Mei doesn't play games often and isn't very interested in them, but she enjoys playing with everyone and is mainly there to keep them company.

Chapter 71 Huihuo's Little Belly

"Damn you, Jiuxiao! What kind of crappy game did you make?! Why do I die from just one hit while you and Kiana only lose one bar of health?!" Huihuo roared angrily, pounding on the keyboard. This was the nth time today that she had been instantly killed by an AoE attack while at full health.

"Huihu's positioning is too bad. He doesn't dodge every time his skills hit him! You're a marksman, with high damage and a fragile body, so it's normal for you to get killed instantly."

Bronya answered without turning her head, intently manipulating her character, nimbly weaving through the gunfire.

Jiuxiao shrugged and said, "Hmm... Bronya is right. Positioning is very important when playing a marksman. You died so quickly that Mei didn't even have time to heal you. It would be better to be a warrior like me and Kiana, where you can both deal damage and tank."

"No! No!!! I'm going to play marksman! I refuse to believe it today! Watch me stack lifesteal like crazy! As long as I'm fast enough, the enemy won't be able to kill me!"

Damn it, it's all because of your terrible marksman equipment balance! Giving a dog would be better than giving a marksman!!! If I had the performance of my Sabayou outer armor, I'd be slaughtering everyone!

Hui Huo's eyes were glowing green; she was being driven crazy. Today, she was determined to stand and fight her way through this BOSS.

Mei silently buffed her a few times and then ignored her. Anyway, she would just die unexpectedly when the battle started, so healing her would be pointless.

The game features several main character classes: Warrior, Tank, Mage, Archer, and Priest. Mei plays a Priest, Kiana and Jiuxiao are Warriors, Bronya is a Mage, and Huihuo plays an Archer.

With Bronya and Jiuxiao, two top players, leading the way, it was basically a free-for-all. Everyone else was in charge of the "gags," while Bronya and Jiuxiao were in charge of the rampage.

Mei logged off around noon to prepare lunch for everyone. Since they were short-handed and it was difficult to run dungeons, Bronya and Kiana went to fight the Houmu Alliance.

Hui Huo uninstalled the game and ran away, saying he'd never play this trash game again, then dragged Jiu Xiao to find Mei. Everyone was used to Hui Huo's behavior; they figured he'd just say it but do it anyway, downloading the game again later—a classic game he was bad at but loved playing.

Even after leaving the game, Hui Huo was still up to his old tricks. He grabbed Jiu Xiao's hand and said in a coquettish tone, "Jiu Xiao~ Brother Jiu Xiao~ Why don't you design my sabayou into the game!"

"We can make a skin with the same appearance, but forget about weapon features. Keyboard and mouse controls can't really showcase your sabayou effect."

Although Huihuo's coquettishness is adorable, even if Jiuxiao were to actually recreate Sabayou in the game, Huihuo would definitely not be satisfied with the result.

"That's it. Jiuxiao, you're no good." Huihuo shook off Jiuxiao's hand and said to him with a look of disgust.

"Ha, woman," Jiuxiao retorted dismissively.

"Heh, man."

"Don't ask me for money when you recharge your game accounts in the future."

"Brother Jiuxiao, I was wrong~" Huihuo took Jiuxiao's hand again, looking shy. Huihuo thought to herself that for the sake of the new equipment, she could only temporarily put up with it.

"I still like your previous rebellious look. You should recover for a while."

"climb."

--------

When Jiuxiao and Huihuo arrived at Jizi's house, they saw Jizi sitting on the sofa, holding up a beer and greeting them.

"Hey, Huihuo and Jiuxiao are back too? Want to grab a drink?"

"I won't drink, Aunt Himeko, you drink by yourself! At your age, you still stay at home drinking all day long, do you have any respect for your big breasts!" Hui Huo replied coldly, hands on her hips.

*Smack!* Jiu Xiao delivered a chop to Hui Huo's head, and Hui Huo immediately covered his head and crouched down.

"You should speak more politely. But Himeko, you really should drink less alcohol. You were hungover yesterday, and you're drinking again this morning!"

"It's alright, it's alright~" Himeko walked over with a dark face, then grabbed Kaguya's head with one hand and lifted her up, while pinching Kaguya's chubby waist with the other, and said kindly to her:

"Yo yo yo, isn't this our Valkyrie, Lady Huihuo, from Destiny?"

I didn't look closely just now, my dear Fat Fire Lord, your chest... how did it grow onto your stomach? Oh dear, at this rate, your chest will probably surpass mine soon!

"You bastard! You big-breasted woman, let me go! You're saying I'm fat, right? You're done for, you better not let me get down. I'm a beautiful girl, how could I be fat!"

Huihu struggled fiercely in Himeko's grasp, but how could Huihu possibly break free from Himeko's grasp with her strength?

"What are you laughing at? Jiuxiao, come help me!"

"You should just get your punishment done." Jiu Xiao didn't help Hui Huo, but instead pinched Hui Huo's little belly with Ji Zi. It was chubby and felt nice to the touch. "Fatty, you've really gained a lot of weight. You need to start dieting."

"You two are finished! Just wait and see, I, saboyou, will give you both a good pounding! Aaaaaah—"

Pinch Huihuo's little belly

Illustration.

Hearing the noise, Mei peeked out from the kitchen and saw Himeko and Kusho dangling Kaguya in the air, pinching Kaguya's little belly and having a great time.

"Alright, alright, stop bullying Huihuo. Come help me cook." Mei picked up a spatula and gave Jiuxiao and Jizi each a spatula, stopping the three of them from fighting. But Mei also secretly reached out and pinched Huihuo's little belly, and she couldn't resist touching it.

Upon landing, Huihuo instinctively pinched her lower abdomen, then her eyes lost their sparkle, and she collapsed to the ground. She kept muttering, "It's over, it's all over..." "I've really gotten fat..." "My breasts are bigger than Himeko's now..."

Illustration.

"As expected of the colorless fat fire, Cortana, did you take the picture?" Jiuxiao asked. He suddenly found Huihuo quite adorable, and it would be a shame not to capture this scene.

"Don't worry, Jiuxiao, I'm recording everything, hehe." Cortana said mischievously. She had been secretly taking pictures ever since Huihuo was picked up, and Cortana would record every time Huihuo was teased by everyone. Not only Huihuo, she also recorded Jiuxiao and Kiana's intimate moments; these were all beautiful memories worth preserving.

"You two bastards, delete it right now!!"

Huihuo, who was slumped on the ground, jumped up and lunged at Jiuxiao with bared teeth and claws, but was caught by Mei.

"Alright, alright, come cook with me." Mei dragged Huihuo towards the kitchen, but when Huihuo couldn't see her, she gave Jiuxiao a hand gesture. Jiuxiao understood immediately, and then had Cortana send Mei a picture of Huihuo pinching her belly.

Hui Huo struggled incessantly, but to no avail, and could only obediently help Mei in the kitchen.

"No...don't..."

Chapter 72 Driving without me?!

"Idiot Kiana is still sleeping, the exam is almost here."

Jiu Xiao patted his sleeping classmate Kiana, but Kiana opened her eyes, glanced at the book, and then lowered her head again and fell asleep.

Jiuxiao was completely helpless against Kiana's tendency to fall asleep whenever she saw a textbook. Kiana hadn't received any preschool education; her education started with middle and high school level material, which completely overwhelmed her, and she didn't even recognize many of the words. This resulted in her getting dizzy when reading and falling asleep as soon as she started studying.

What the hell did that bastard Siegfried teach Kiana?!

Hmm... Although Jiuxiao is the same, when Kiana was sleeping at Qianyu Academy, Jiuxiao would leave his work to Cortana and then sleep too.

Both of them had completely lost their minds; they were getting drowsy while reading. If it weren't for Mei mentioning the exam, Kiana wouldn't be the only one slumped over the table right now.

"Fine, let's start."

So Jiuxiao covered the book in front of him and lay down to sleep.

(Readers who are still in school, please don't follow the protagonist's or Kiana's example. You must pay attention in class and study hard. Otherwise, you'll end up like the author, writing a novel with terrible logic and writing style.)

"I thought Jiuxiao had finally come to her senses and was going to study hard..." "No wonder they're a young couple." "Damn it, we finally found a guy, and he's already taken."

The students nearby were whispering among themselves, all talking about Jiuxiao.

To prevent these innocent children from being abducted like Cecilia, Theresa arranged for all the children in and around St. Freya Academy to be girls.

The students of St. Freya Academy are, after all, vibrant young girls brimming with hormones, some so eager for romance that they've already started engaging in yuri (lesbian) relationships. After all, until now, Jiu Xiao is the only boy in the entire academy, the only other one being the older man, Welt.

Unfortunately, the Nine Heavens Beauties were already taken, and they were too embarrassed to compete with Kiana for them, so they could only continue their yuri relationship on their own.
