On how PhDs become human evil

How shameful, Otto! Where is your dignity as the Archbishop? You're acting like a lovesick, clueless teenager!

"Hey Otto, don't you think this is a bit much? Besides, you're basically fabricating something that doesn't exist. Kallen's spirit in heaven would probably be unhappy if she knew, wouldn't she?"

“This is strategy, Dr. Fafnir,” Otto explained seriously. “As the art of war says, psychological warfare is superior to physical warfare. First, we must strike her hard on the mind, causing her to break down. This will greatly reduce her fighting ability, making it much easier for us to capture her alive.”

He actually managed to come up with something that made sense?!

"boom--!"

Suddenly, a crimson firestorm erupted from Yae Sakura's center, the whirlwind of flames shooting straight into the sky like a towering tower, almost dyeing the entire sky crimson.

"Unforgivable..."

Carrying the crimson-stained Red Cherry Blossom, Yae Sakura, her body wreathed in foxfire, emerged from the flames like a vengeful demon, the intense heat turning everything in her path into lava.

"How dare they defile Karen... Unforgivable..."

"Otto, are you sure her mental breakdown has reduced her fighting ability? I have a feeling she's lost her mind and gone out of control," Bai Jie said, sweating profusely. "You didn't go too far, did you?"

"Is...it really true?" Even the usually calm Otto was starting to waver. This wasn't what the script had in store!

Awooo————————！ ！ ！

A crimson fox god of energy gradually appeared behind Yae Sakura, its cries of hatred and anger echoing through the night in Changkong City. The display screen in front of Bai Jie was already issuing frantic warnings, clearly indicating that Yae Sakura was now completely indistinguishable from a Herrscher.

With a sigh, Bai Jie looked at his wife: "Chen, can you handle this?"

Without answering immediately, Chen simply gave Bai Jie a reassuring smile, then walked up to him and Otto, placing his hand on the hilt of Chixiao's sword.

The next moment, Chixiao was unsheathed!

boom--------------!!!

A dragon's roar shook the heavens! A black divine dragon appeared between heaven and earth as Chixiao was unsheathed! Its azure dragon eyes were like the eyes of a god, looking down upon everything under heaven!

The dragon's might is boundless, and the sword's power is unparalleled!

A raging storm swept across the sky, blowing Chen's clothes off and hanging loosely on her arms. Her yellow tie danced wildly in the wind, and her crimson eyes reflected the figure of Yae Sakura.

Then, the crimson sky rose.

"Crimson Sky - Shadowless Blade!"

Human and dragon as one!

Exceeding the limits of human capability, a superhuman speed that could not be detected by the naked eye or even by the most advanced instruments erupted in an instant. Under the radiance of the crimson sky, Chen transformed into a crimson divine dragon that sped through space, leaving behind afterimages that resembled flashes of light.

"Clang clang clang clang!"

The flashes of light scattered like falling petals, and the crimson dragon vanished like a mirage. Chen, meanwhile, had somehow appeared behind Yae Sakura, and Chixiao was slowly sheathing his sword.

"Boom!"

Yae Sakura fell heavily to the ground, while the crimson cherry blossom she was holding slowly fell from the sky and embedded itself in the concrete.

Turning to Bai Jie, Chen said casually, "Finished, that's a call of business."

P.S.: Update

P.S.: This might ruin some character development, such as Otto's and Yae Sakura's personalities, and there might be issues with combat power, but let's leave it at that for now. Feel free to raise any questions in the book reviews and comments.

Section 46, Chapter 21: Famous Scenes Ahead

"boom!"

Bai Jie's room was forcibly pushed open, and Theresa rushed in in a disheveled state for some reason. Bai Jie, who was taking a nap on the bed, was so frightened that he rolled onto the floor. Because Bai Jie rolled onto the floor, Chen, who was sleeping next to him, also rolled onto the floor.

Opening his eyes, Bai Jie was about to complain when he saw Theresa standing there with tears in her eyes. Her hair, which she usually kept perfectly smooth every morning, was now a mess, and if you looked closely, her clothes were also disheveled.

"Auntie, what's wrong? Who made fun of you for being short again?"

"I'm not short! I have serious business with you! Don't be afraid of what I'm about to tell you!"

After exchanging a glance with Bai Jie, Chen said, "Theresa, we are from the Lungmen Guard Bureau. We are not afraid. Please speak."

Taking a deep breath, Theresa calmed herself down and began to recount what had just happened: "I was just... pushed down by Yae Sakura."

Taking a deep breath, Bai Jie leaned back slightly and asked, "Which one is Yae Sakura?"

"It's not any one of them, it's the shrine maiden you brought back with Grandpa last night."

The shrine maiden, also known as Yae Sakura, was taken back to the Far East Branch by Bai Jie after being killed by Chen's Dragon God Sword last night. After all, she was a pseudo-Herrscher, and they couldn't just leave her unattended. Because she was seriously injured by Chen, Bai Jie placed her in the hospital at St. Freya Academy.

"A shrine maiden? Isn't that Amiya?" Bai Jie remembered that Yae Sakura's ears looked quite similar to Amiya's.

Theresa rolled her eyes at Bai Jie and said, "A shrine maiden! Have you ever watched Japanese anime? You know, the kind of shrine maiden that appears in shrines all the time, carrying a bow and arrow or talismans to exorcise monsters, you know?"

"I understand, Auntie, please continue."

"I just went to visit her at the hospital, and as soon as I walked in, she called me Karen, saying I'm still as beautiful as ever, who doesn't know that? Then she pinned me against the wall and forcibly kissed me! Forcibly kissed me! I just want to—"

"Pfft!"

Seeing Chen suddenly burst out laughing, Theresa frowned: "Niece-in-law, what are you laughing at?"

"I remembered some happy things."

"What's the good news?"

With a blissful expression, Chen hugged Bai Jie and said in an incredibly sweet tone, "Fafner kissed me forcefully last night!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jie blushed, but for some reason, he also smiled.

That laugh immediately drew Theresa's attention: "Nephew, what are you laughing at again?"

"Um... Chen also forcibly kissed me last night."

"You two...forcibly kissed each other?" Theresa suspected the two were showing off their affection and had solid evidence! "I'll say it again! This headmistress is not joking!"

"Yeah, yeah... Pfft (/≧▽≦)/!" Bai Jie couldn't help but laugh again. When Theresa saw this, she puffed up her cheeks and stood up as if she was about to rush up and fight Bai Jie to the death.

Seeing that Theresa was about to take advantage of her husband, Chen hurriedly waved his hand to signal Theresa to stop and asked, "Alright, alright, let's get back to the point. Theresa, that Yae Sakura... is she strong? I remember I defeated her in one move."

“It’s not a matter of how amazing she is!” Theresa immediately denied. “She really is that kind of… that very rare kind… her lips are so soft, they smell like cherry blossoms, it smells wonderful, it’s a pity I was too nervous to really appreciate it…”

"puff!"

"Fafner! I've put up with you for too long!" Theresa couldn't take it anymore and grabbed a chair, smashing it at Bai Jie.

Hastily reaching out to stop Theresa, Bai Jie began to defend himself: "It's really not that I wanted to laugh, it's just that I couldn't help it when I thought about Chen's incredibly cute expression after I forcibly kissed her last night!"

"You've been laughing at me the whole time!"

"Auntie! We're professionally trained; we won't laugh no matter how funny it is! Unless we can't help it!"

"How about this, Headmaster? Let's change our clothes now and go see Yae Sakura. We'll definitely get an explanation for you," Chen said, trying to smooth things over while suppressing a laugh.

Just as she said, since they were taking a nap, Chen and Bai Jie were still wearing their pajamas.

After a moment's thought, Theresa put down her chair: "Alright then, you all go quickly, my innocence can't be ruined like this! I have official business to attend to, so I'll be going now!"

Theresa finished speaking and hurriedly ran out.

Watching Theresa leave helplessly, Bai Jie sighed, "Honestly, I finally get a nap, but I still have to deal with this kind of thing with my period. She really doesn't let me rest for a moment."

"Stop complaining, at worst you can just ask your aunt for overtime pay."

"Auntie?" Bai Jie smiled and looked at Chen. "She's not even married into the family yet, and you're already calling her that?"

"Isn't it just a matter of time?" Chen said, then touched Bai Jie's lips. Before she could stand up to change her clothes, Bai Jie took her hand and pulled her into his arms.

"One time isn't enough, you need two." Before Chen could answer, Bai Jie silenced her with a kiss.

----------------------

According to Theresa, she accidentally hit Yae Sakura on the head while struggling to break free, knocking her unconscious. However, when Bai Jie arrived at the ward, Yae Sakura had already woken up.

Upon seeing Bai Jie arrive, Yae Sakura immediately jumped out of bed with a wary expression.

"Duang!"

Watching Yae Sakura bump into a light bulb because she jumped too high, Bai Jie couldn't help but cover his face. This donkey... fox... well, let's just say shrine maiden—this shrine maiden is actually a Herrscher? What a disgrace to the Herrschers!

Covering her ears, Yae Sakura looked at Bai Jie and asked, "Who are you? Where is this?"

“My name is Fafnir Shaniat, and this is St. Freya Academy, which you can think of as an academy founded by Karen’s descendants.”

"Kallen?!" The mere mention of Kallen caused Yae Sakura to lose her composure as if she'd gone mad. "How is Kallen? I remember that blond man saying he was Kallen's husband, and that short girl just now also smelled of Kallen..."

Yae Sakura is currently very confused. Although she is a pseudo-Herrscher, she is still a person from five hundred years ago. Too many things have happened during the five hundred years she has been asleep. In addition, Otto's misleading has made her mind a complete mess.

Seeing this, Bai Jie couldn't help but reach out and start patting Yae Sakura's head.

"Huh?" Yae Sakura was taken aback by Bai Jie's actions.

"Ah, sorry, it's just a habit of mine...did I offend you?"

This is indeed Bai Jie's habitual action. Back when he was still at Rhodes Island, Bai Jie would pat the hair of the operators working in various departments to encourage them, and sometimes he would pat their tails. However, he hasn't done this since he traveled through time with Rhodes Island. Now, he just couldn't help touching Yae Sakura's ears because he saw them.

"No...it just feels quite comfortable." Yae Sakura lowered her head shyly, and it has to be said, her action was quite cute...Wait!

Wake up, Bai Jie. Don't forget who you are now. You're a married man. How can you have thoughts about other women? Didn't you swear that you would only love Chen for the rest of your life?

“Yes, that’s right, I will always love Chen, okay…” After giving himself a mental suggestion, Bai Jie breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Yae Sakura, saying, “Yae Sakura, right? I know you’re confused right now, but there are too many things involved, and I can’t explain them all at once. I recommend that you go and see Theresa.”

"Theresa?"

"It's that short little girl who just came to see you. Don't let her young appearance fool you; she's over 40 years old and a true wise woman. I'm sure she can answer your questions."

(Don't blame me for my period, it's your fault for disturbing my wife and me during our afternoon nap.)

P.S.: Update

P.S.: To be honest, I initially started playing Honkai Impact 3rd because of Yae Sakura, since I thought she was incredibly beautiful when I saw the poster. But after getting into the game... Long live Fu Hua! Long live Kiana!

P.S.: The Xuan-Yuan Sword arc is coming soon, Rhodes Island is getting ready for a group fight!
