Luo Chen's eyes were filled with disappointment, and then he saw Siegfried looking at him seriously.

"Kid, Kiana seems to have stayed at your house when we were in Changkong City."

"Uh, yes."

Luo Chen panicked a little, feeling that Siegfried's gaze was strange. He tensed up, ready to run away at any moment.

"Thank you for your hard work in taking care of that girl for me."

Siegfried said, taking another swig of beer and becoming languid: "Speaking of Kiana, I'm the one who wronged her."

"Then why don't you go and see her, sir?"

"There's nothing I can do. I'm a wanted fugitive in Destiny now, so I can't get close. In the entire Destiny, you're probably the only one who would talk to me like this."

"Hehe." Luo Chen scratched his head, looking at Siegfried without saying a word.

"By the way, kid, are you interested in pursuing Kiana?"

Siegfried turned his head towards Luo Chen and said to him with a smile.

"This is the first time I've ever seen a father encourage someone else to pursue his daughter."

Luo Chen looked at Siegfried, who had ill intentions, and said subconsciously.

“What’s the big deal!” Siegfried laughed. “When Cecilia gave birth to Kiana, she wanted to put you and her together to develop a relationship.”

As Siegfried spoke, a hint of melancholy flashed in his eyes, and his tone became sorrowful.

Luo Chen silently complained about how he and Kiana had this kind of relationship, and then he heard Siegfried say, "Kid, I need your help."

"What's the matter?"

"Take good care of Kiana and that little girl from the Raiden family. This is a request from Raiden Ryoma and me."

"I will."

Luo Chen made a promise, but in his heart he wondered if the Thunder Dragon Horse would chase after him and kill him if it found out that he had kidnapped his daughter.

That's all I wanted to say. Oh, and here's your phone.

Luo Chen handed Siegfried his phone as instructed, and Siegfried fiddled with it for a while before tossing it back to him.

"I've given you my contact information. If anything happens in the future, please let me know immediately."

"I've told you, can you solve this?"

Luo Chen questioned Siegfried's reliability, after all, he was the kind of person who could use heavenly fire and toast.

"You brat, you still dare to question me?"

Siegfried chuckled and scolded, then stood up, patted Luo Chen on the shoulder, and said, "Alright, I won't say any more. By the way, Kiana, would you like to consider her?"

Luo Chen remained silent, staring at Siegfried without saying a word. Siegfried patted his shoulder again and slowly disappeared into the crowd.

Watching Siegfried's departing figure, Luo Chen couldn't help but smile.

"Why is Professor Walter's information being transmitted like this?"

Luo Chen put the USB drive on his shoulder into his hand and smiled knowingly.

"Let's go, it's time to go back."

Luo Chen brought the pre-packaged barbecue back to where they were staying. He saw Himeko and Theresa studying a map, so he went over and said, "Aunt Theresa, Teacher Himeko, time for a midnight snack!"

"The little guy is back."

Himeko put down the documents in her hand, looked at the takeout box in Luo Chen's hand, and smiled: "You went to eat something."

"I've finally come all the way to China, so I'm going to try something new."

"That's true, after all, you are a Chinese."

Himeko took the box from Luo Chen's hand, smelled the alcohol on him, and frowned, saying, "You've been drinking?"

"no!"

Luo Chen quickly shook his head, but Ji Zi still looked at him with suspicion. After a moment's thought, Luo Chen decided to tell the truth, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain the USB drive incident.

"I ran into Uncle Siegfried."

"what!"

Theresa looked at him in surprise, then ran up to Luo Chen with her short legs and asked, "Are you serious?"

Luo Chen nodded, took out a USB drive from his pocket, and handed it to Theresa.

"There should be information about the Nine Netherworlds in here."

Theresa took the USB drive, her expression grave. "What did Siegfried say to you?"

"He told me some stories about his past with Aunt Cecilia and my parents, and then asked me to take good care of Kiana."

"Is this gone?"

"Well, no more."

"That guy! He abandoned Kiana back then and ran away, and now he doesn't even come to see her! When I find him, I'll make him taste the bitterness of Judah."

Seeing Theresa's frantic state, Luo Chen found it somewhat amusing, but to avoid getting into trouble with Judas, he chose to turn his head to the side and secretly chuckle.

"Auntie, we're back!"

Kiana kicked the door open, saw the food on the table, immediately dropped what she was holding, rushed to the table, grabbed a piece of grilled meat, and started gnawing on it.

"Kiana, I'm truly impressed by you."

Luo Chen chuckled and scolded, taking the plastic bags from Mei and Yuno and telling them to go eat too. As for Bronya? Luo Chen saw her sitting on Heavy Bunny's arm as soon as he entered, with plastic bags hanging on the other side, so he ignored her.

Chapter 38 Entering the Nine Netherworlds

After several days of searching and preparation, St. Freya and her group finally embarked on their journey to the Nine Netherworlds.

"start sailing!"

Luo Chen stood at the bow of the ship and said those words in an extremely chuunibyou (delusional) pose, while also bursting into laughter.

"Sister Mei, what is Luo Chen doing?"

"This is probably... chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)."

Mei looked at Luo Chen, who was having an attack, smiled gently, and casually picked up her phone to record it, intending to use it to blackmail him later.

"Luo Chen, I want to play too!"

Kiana ran excitedly to Luo Chen's side, struck a chuunibyou pose, and kept yelling.

"You two! Stop fooling around! We're almost there!"

Himeko shouted loudly from behind, urging the two of them to come back.

"Know it!"

Kiana responded and started to walk back, but her foot slipped and she fell backward.

"careful!"

Luo Chen hurriedly caught her, but he also suddenly slipped, and the two of them ended up falling onto the deck in an odd position.

Kiana lay on top of Luo Chen, with one leg tucked between his legs and her head resting on his chest.

"Kiana, you're pinning me down."

Luo Chen rubbed his dizzy head with one hand and tried to push Kiana up with the other, but it seemed he had placed the hand in the wrong spot.

Kiana felt Luo Chen's hand groping around her waist, so she quickly got up and pulled Luo Chen up as well.

"sorry."

Kiana blushed and apologized, recalling the sensation of her body as she lay there, and couldn't help but lower her head.

"It's nothing, but why are you looking down?"

Luo Chen didn't notice Kiana's unusual behavior and walked towards Himeko on his own.

"Himeko-sensei, are we almost there?"

"We'll be there in about ten minutes. Get your gear on and get ready to dive."

"okay."

"Himeko, a large amount of Honkai energy reaction has occurred in your vicinity."

Just as everyone was preparing to dive, Theresa sent a communication. Himeko looked down at the seabed and saw countless Honkai Beasts attacking the ship in the distance, her expression turning serious.

"I'll go! So many!"

Luo Chen looked at the densely packed Honkai Beasts and felt his scalp tingle: "There are so many, how am I supposed to cut them down!"

"Luo Chen, go and move the black box out of the cabin."

Himeko stared intently at the approaching horde of Honkai Beasts and shouted loudly at Luo Chen.

Luo Chen ran into the cabin, took out two black boxes, opened them, and found two bomb-like objects inside. He was curious about their purpose.

"Luo Chen, just throw this thing into the sea. Theresa will control it from the Hyperion. When the bomb explodes, we'll dive down immediately."

"understood."
