"Kiana, you should become an A-rank Valkyrie first."

After Sikong gave a brief explanation and saw that he was alright, no one pursued the matter further.

Then......

Raiden Mei went to wash the dishes.

Himeko Murata and Theresa both went to work.

As for Wendy, she was assigned to Fu Hua, the A-rank Valkyrie, to take care of her.

Fu Hua did not refuse.

Upon learning that Sikong had become an S-rank Destiny Knight, Kiana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya became incredibly excited, all saying they wanted to go for special training.

Unsurprisingly, Raiden Mei is going to leave with Shiku.

However, this time it wasn't just the two of them; their sidekicks Bronya and Kiana were also there.

Kiana was supposed to go to the academy head for special training.

However, since the headmaster was temporarily unavailable, she ended up acting as a third wheel alongside Raiden Mei.

The group of four went to the indoor training ground for special training.

They had the mindset of someone who was a big dog eater.

Kiana used Sikong's account to book the room.

To ensure fairness, Sikong had to open a venue for Raiden Mei and Bronya as well, which cost him several thousand dollars. Fortunately, he now earns a decent monthly salary.

This amount of money is nothing.

St. Freya Academy has not yet started classes, and many students have not yet returned.

Therefore, there are very few students in the indoor training area.

Those you see are mostly the hardworking type.

Sikong's arrival did not attract the attention of the Valkyries; only a few peeked out, because humans are social animals, and there were not many onlookers.

Few Valkyries can stand by and watch for a long time.

so......

It's impossible to create the scene of being surrounded by layers upon layers of people as usual.

This made Sikong feel slightly uncomfortable.

But this is fine too, it's quiet enough.

Sitting outside Raiden Mei's training ground, Sikong held popcorn and cola, watching her fight against the Honkai Beasts.

Unlike Kiana and others who received special training.

Sikong just wants to take a leisurely rest for a while now.

After all, he had already endured enough hardship at the Schicksal headquarters, where he had undergone Durandal's special training. Now, he felt completely drained and just wanted to be an ordinary, unambitious person.

After some time apart, Raiden Mei's strength has improved slightly.

However, compared to Sikong's progress.

That's far from enough.

Chapter 247 Lucy Laila

"Mei, that's enough with the basic training. Let's go and connect with the power of the gems."

After watching for a while with utter boredom, Sikong instructed Raiden Mei to focus on conquering the gems' power. Compared to his progress in controlling the gems, the cook was far too slow.

Perhaps it's because my mental strength isn't strong enough.

Sikong underwent special training at the Tianming headquarters for over a month.

He has now completely tamed the desire for the gem.

Aside from breaking through the final barrier, Sikong couldn't think of a way to further improve his control over the two gems.

Unfortunately, this last barrier was utterly hopeless.

It was as if, without the identity of a Herrscher, there was no way to shake it.

Sikong's current mental strength was like an ant trying to shake a tree; it couldn't even budge it.

"it is good."

Raiden Mei nodded in agreement, and sat cross-legged on the ground as if she were meditating.

This method can also help improve mental strength.

However, the effect was not significant.

At this moment, Kiana and Bronya on the left and right sides were still working hard in the training field.

One by one, formidable enemies were defeated by them.

At the same time...

Sikong's student card balance kept decreasing by -1000, -1000...

Each simulated battle in the indoor training arena costs 1000.

Until the enemy is defeated.

However, to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation and deliberately not defeating the simulated enemies in order to increase training time, simulation battles are conducted in the indoor training ground.

The longest duration is ten minutes.

The shortest time is a few seconds.

This record was broken by Sikong, who had just arrived at St. Freya Academy.

If you're just sitting cross-legged inside, or doing warm-up exercises and sparring, the cost is very low, and it's calculated by the day.

As for why these things are done in an indoor training facility...

The reason is also very simple.

The concentration of Honkai energy here is much higher than outside.

It's perfect for Valkyrie training.

All three girls were training, but Sikong was slacking off. At St. Freya Academy, no one could control him.

It's much more comfortable than at the Destiny headquarters.

Durandal, that training maniac...

Just thinking about it makes me feel exhausted.

Just as Sikong was leisurely slacking off, someone suddenly came to his door—it was a pair of twin Valkyries.

"Sikong? Do you still remember us?"

The visitor asked.

Looking at their similar faces, Sikong said, "I remember, Lucy and Layla, you were my comrades on my first mission. How could I forget you?"

When Sikong first became a B-rank Fate Knight, he and Fu Hua went on a support mission to help deal with a small-scale Honkai attack. That was his first mission.

Therefore, Sikong remembered it very clearly.

The sisters Lucy and Lyra had helped him on the battlefield and wanted to recruit him.

Finally, Sikong suspected that he was the World Serpent.

Next...

This naturally became a puzzle without an answer.

Whether the other party is a World Serpent spy or not has little to do with Sikong.

For some time afterward.

Lucy and Leila had no connection with Sikong.

Only today did they come knocking on our door.

The two blue-haired, red-eyed girls exclaimed in surprise, "So you still remember us! I thought you'd forgotten about us!"

“My memory isn’t that bad,” Sikong waved his hand. “But… why are you all still at St. Freya Academy? Don’t you need to go home?”

These words were spoken.

Lucy and Lyra's eyes suddenly turned dejected.

Lucy, the older sister, said, "We...we have no home anymore. A few years ago, our family died in a small-scale Honkai. If it weren't for a Valkyrie saving us, we probably would also..."

Lyra, the younger sister, didn't speak; she simply nodded.

Sikong was stunned for a moment.

To be honest, he didn't expect these two young girls to have such a story.

"I'm sorry... I said something I shouldn't have, which reminded you of sad things."

Sikong pressed his forehead in distress.

"It's okay." Lucy's smile was radiant. "We've already let it go."

Leila said, "That's right, Sikong, there's no need to blame yourself."

"Since you say so, then I'm relieved." Sikong breathed a sigh of relief. "Would you like some snacks? There are many kinds here, feel free to take whatever you want."

Sikong pointed to the side.

These snacks were bought by Sikong, Kiana, and the others when they came to the indoor training ground.

It was Kiana who instigated Sikong to pay the money.

In this case.

Sikong was already used to it, and he didn't care about such a small amount of money.

An S-class Destiny Knight could never be short of money; his annual salary is in the millions, and in euros no less.
