A chat group where you switch bodies with Alicia at the start?

So, the fat lady was locked in solitary confinement.

However, this is not a problem, since the Third Great Collapse has actually ended.

Alicia's continued appearances in the outside world are also a way of provoking the higher-ups.

In order to better cover up what they have done, choosing to go along with those people's wishes, temporarily avoiding their sharp edge, and making concessions is also a good move to lull them into a false sense of security.

Of course, although Alicia's imprisonment was within Jiang Qiao's expectations, and he did intend to serve his short sentence himself, he did not expect that his ability would activate so suddenly, and Alicia, who should have been imprisoned, would directly become Alicia.

This is quite frustrating – we can only let the fat lady suffer for now.

"Although I saved this city before, this is the first time I've seen it so clearly."

The white-haired girl walking side by side with Mei, carrying Kiana's fanny pack, gazed at the city scenery with such emotion.

Compared to the pre-civilizational Changkong City he had seen 50,000 years ago, this international metropolis 50,000 years later was far more prosperous.

Mei couldn't understand, of course. After all, as a native of Changkong City who had grown up here, she didn't think this city was anything special.

But looking at the white-haired girl beside her, whose expression was relaxed and who wore a contented smile, she would ask a question that had always been on her mind:

Where were you before?

Mei had asked Alicia this question before, and given Alicia's personality, she naturally wouldn't hide anything from her.

But in reality, she didn't know much.

The only thing Mei could tell was that she might come from another world that was similar to this one, yet completely different.

Mei didn't find it hard to understand, but she found it very interesting.

Now, she asked the same question to the original owner of the body that had captured her heart. Her intuition told Mei that she might get a more accurate answer from Alicia... or rather, Jiang Qiao.

Faced with this question, the white-haired girl glanced at her sideways.

"Are you curious?"

The Kiana that Mei gradually became familiar with was completely different, but she was also unlike the Alicia she had seen before. Kiana had a more unfamiliar appearance, but for some reason, Mei felt a sense of nostalgia and... a flutter in her heart towards this Kiana.

"Yes, I am curious."

Raiden Mei doesn't mind expressing her inner feelings so boldly, after all, she is no longer timid.

The girl who had stopped in her tracks met his gaze, but remained silent for a long time. Just as Mei, who had initially mustered her courage, began to feel uneasy, the white-haired girl, who was completely unfamiliar to her, suddenly chuckled, and her previously aloof demeanor vanished.

She heard the other person's soft laughter in her ear:

"In the distant past."

What happened in Chapter Ninety-Eight?

The distant past?

Mei clearly couldn't understand what the girl meant, but she didn't think the other girl was just being perfunctory. After all, the unreserved sincerity revealed in her words was absolutely genuine.

Perhaps, it's just that I still can't understand it at this moment.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at Chiba Academy.

On this brand new day, the school gate and courtyard were filled with students in twos and threes, talking about the interesting things that happened last night.

However, after noticing Mei's figure, they began to whisper among themselves and cast strange glances at her.

Whenever this happens, Mei would unconsciously lower her head.

Although she no longer cares so much about this situation, it would be a lie to say that she doesn't care at all.

Instinctively, the girl leaned towards the white-haired girl beside her and took her arm.

This is a rather daring act, something even the previous white fluffy ball had never experienced, but of course... Ruo has experienced it now.

—The girl has plenty of assets.

"Feel sorry..."

Sensing that gaze, Mei's voice was barely audible.

Although it was a bit abrupt, it really made me feel safe!

It might be a bit rude of me to say this, but while Kiana is like a lively younger sister when she's around, the current Kiana gives me an incredibly reassuring sense of reliability.

Although the other person's back is a man, perhaps that's why Mei feels that feeling is more wonderful than when she's with Kiana.

Because she was also a girl, she could convince herself with the thought that since they were both girls, it shouldn't be a problem to be a little intimate, right?

The white-haired girl remained silent, only offering that reassuring smile.

The two girls walked together, looking exceptionally close.

However, this time was exceptionally short, since Mei and Kiana were not in the same class.

The former reluctantly let go of the girl's fair arm, which was exposed through her short sleeve, and quietly said goodbye before heading to his own class.

Watching calmly as the other person's figure disappeared from sight, Kiana smiled and walked into her classroom.

— Kiana's poor student qualities seemed to have already been evident at Chiba Academy, to the point that teachers and even classmates couldn't help but look like they'd seen a ghost when they saw Kiana attending class on time.

What they found even harder to accept was that this girl, who had always been so carefree, acted like a lady today. Even when faced with the teacher's targeted questions, she answered fluently and performed like a top student.

The underachiever suddenly became a model student, and the teachers who originally had a terrible impression of Kiana were moved to tears and their opinions completely changed.

This is absolutely a role model for learning!

However, unbeknownst to them, while appearing to be attentively listening to the lecture, the white-haired girl was also addressing another hidden health issue—

In the vast expanse of white snow, a calm-looking white-haired girl gazes at another white-haired girl standing not far away, who looks remarkably similar to her except for the golden eyes that radiate the divine aura of a Herrscher.

Sirin, the Herrscher of the Void, or rather, the malice Sirin harbored towards the world and humanity as a Herrscher.

Awakened abruptly from her slumber, the queen, somewhat dazed, looked at the white-haired girl with a furrowed brow:

"You are... that Alicia?!"

She is essentially the same person, sharing each other with Kiana, including their memories.

Using her experience of distinguishing Alicia from Kiana through the white fluffy ball, the Queen instantly realized the true nature of the somewhat strange Kiana in front of her.

Uh... never mind, if you want to call me that, then so be it.

Although Jiang Qiao felt somewhat helpless about being called "Alice" by that name, he was too lazy to correct it.

“——You bastard!”

The Queen was instantly enraged.

She had been sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt a strange force enter her body, which caused her consciousness to sink further into a deep sleep.

"Although I don't know how you got into my body, since you dared to appear in front of me, you should have been mentally prepared, right?"

The Herrscher of the Void, whose temper was not good, spoke with a hint of murderous intent, casting a chilling atmosphere over the air.

"Of course, otherwise why do you think I would wake you up on my own initiative?"

"...You don't actually think you can beat me, do you?"

Upon hearing the girl's words, a look of surprise appeared on Miss Pufferfish's face, followed by a mocking gaze.

"If we were outside, I might not be able to do anything about your strange power, but this is my consciousness space, my home turf! What makes you, an outsider, so confident that you can defeat me?"

Even someone as bloated as Miss Pufferfish had to admit how troublesome Jiang Qiao was using [Alicia's] body, since she herself wasn't in her full state either.

But in this space of consciousness belonging to 'Sirin', the Queen believed herself to be absolutely invincible!

"go to hell!"

With a wave of his hand, several aerial spears pierced towards the white-haired girl.

Although it's impossible to completely kill the opponent, as long as Jiang Qiao can be suppressed, the Herrscher of the Void can take control of the body.

If she can cause a major collapse in Changkong City and fully recover her condition, she will be completely resurrected in this world!

—Honkai, your queen is coming back.

Those humans outside, tremble before me!

Just as Miss Pufferfish was fantasizing about the wonderful future after gaining control of her body, those aerial spears returned.

Before her eyes widened, they transformed into ribbons that bound the Herrscher of the Void, leaving her suspended in mid-air, completely bound.

The struggling pufferfish looked shocked, angry, and bewildered.

"what happened?"

What happened? What happened? At this moment, her mind was a complete mess, and she couldn't understand what was going on at all.

How did my own Lawyer powers suddenly turn against me?

While Miss Pufferfish was filled with doubt and uncertainty, the white-haired girl standing in the snow slowly approached her. As Miss Pufferfish stared blankly, a burst of light flowed over the girl, and her long Roman-curled hair slowly dissipated. Her original school uniform from Chiba Academy transformed into an incomparably gorgeous and luxurious ceremonial robe.
