Honkai Impact

"Huh?" The white-haired little girl sitting on the stone wall glanced at Otto: "Its owner is here, why don't you ask him?"

Yaeji turned her head and met Otto's gaze again.

"Look, it's already broken anyway."

Upon hearing Otto's words, the little girl sitting on the stone wall suddenly jumped down!

"click~"

He accidentally stepped on a protruding rock, his right leg buckled, half of his body lost its support, his center of gravity shifted, and he fell to the ground with a scream!

"Clap~"

Yae Jiwen gently supported the little girl's shoulder with one hand and, with a little force, straightened her up.

Wow! You're so strong, thank you!

"Don't mention it." Yae Ji still had a smile on her face, and held out her palm. "Can I take a look at that thing?"

"Give!"

The little girl handed it over with both hands.

Yae Ji looked down at the "plane wreckage" in his palm. If it were something ordinary, like a paper airplane, he wouldn't have been interested in it at all. But this thing had its outline and skeleton made up, which meant that a lot of effort had been put into it.

This made Yae Ji increasingly interested. If possible, he also hoped to develop this world into a world where everything could be turned upside down and gods could become mere creatures of faith.

From this perspective, the fact that someone could create a small gadget with a skeletal outline that allows it to fly slowly, without any prior experience, demonstrates exceptional talent, aside from the maker's hard work.

What's the term for another world again?

"A researcher? A scientist? Or the great inventor the little girl mentioned earlier?"

As Yae Ji wandered through his mind, having been immersed in the otherworldly realm of his dreams for so long, he developed an extremely strong interest in technology. Unfortunately, he had too many things to do and simply couldn't find the time to build things up from the ground up.

perhaps

While Yae was observing the "plane wreckage," Otto and the white-haired little girl were also observing him.

The white-haired little girl blinked, and the more she looked at Yae Ji, the more familiar she felt.

The little white-haired girl, with her "pink hair, dazzling crystal-like eyes," crossed one arm over her chest and the other hand pinching her soft chin, her head bowed in deep thought.

Otto, who was standing next to Yae Jirei, pursed his lips and suddenly said, "If you want, I can make one for you."

"Oh?" Yae Ji had just turned her head when she heard the energetic loli next to her shout:

"I know who you are! You're the ally of justice Father was talking about, right?!" The little girl blinked her big eyes, grabbed Yae Ji's sleeve with one hand, and her face flushed with excitement. "My name is Karen! Can you grant me a request?"

Yae Ji looked at Kallen, who was about the same age as her younger sister Sakura, and couldn't help but smile. "I'm not some kind of heroine, I'm just a swordsman who wants to protect his family."

"A swordsman? Is it a Valkyrie?" Kallen blinked her big eyes. "No, I've heard Father mention you. You're not a Valkyrie."

"That's right, that's right." Karen loosened her small hands, crossed them behind her back, and her smile was particularly infectious on her pretty face: "Swordsman, would you like to save the world with me?"

Kallen's expectant look was reflected on Yae Ji's retina. Yae Ji smiled helplessly at Kallen's eccentricity and chuunibyou, as if coaxing his younger sister: "When you have the ability to protect everyone, then we can talk about saving the world."

Otto, listening to their conversation, couldn't help but feel a little down.

'I was right first, whether it was the wing, the words, or the remaking, why did it turn out like this?'

Chapter 81 Heavenly Fire Judgment

Yae Ji has always been very friendly to children, especially those as young as Sakura and Rin, not to mention that he sees his younger sister in them.

Karen's pure white hair, unlike silver hair that has lost its vitality and nourishment, instead exudes its vitality.

Smooth and soft like waves, and as smooth as brocade, a single tuft of hair stubbornly stuck in the center of her head, perhaps due to carelessness. Her relatively fluffy bangs hung down her forehead, looking almost identical to Otto's.

Her hair was tied into a scorpion braid from her sculpted shoulders, with a long black ribbon at the end that matched the color of her clothes.

His bright blue eyes were clear and sparkling like stars. His small hands behind his back and his pretty face smiling at Yae Ji made his smile even more delightful.

'If Rin were healthy, she would be just as elegant and refined as her, wouldn't she?'

Yae Ji thought that although Yae Rin's delicate appearance easily aroused people's protective instincts, Yae Ji disliked that kind of sickly beauty. He hoped that his sister could be healthy and happy, not like this.

"Hey~" Kallen stretched out her little hand and waved it in front of Yae Ji. "What are you thinking about? Have you decided to come with me to save the world?"

Coming to her senses, Yae Ji sighed helplessly: "Didn't I already say? You can talk about saving the world when you can protect your own family."

Karen frowned, looking as if she was deep in thought.

"Coco's father is incredibly strong; I can't possibly surpass him anytime soon."

Yae Ji casually draped her hand over Kallen's pure white hair, gently ruffled it, and met Kallen's puzzled gaze.

"Look, now your father is protecting you. But when you grow up and they get old, who will protect them?"

"Of course it's Karen!"

Karen clenched her little fists, about to say something ambitious, when she seemed to suddenly remember something, turned away from Yaeji's wicked hand, and looked at Otto: "Great Inventor, will you join us?"

Otto, who was feeling down, looked up and pointed at himself with a blank expression. "Me?"

"Hmm!" Karen gave a soft, nasal hum.

"Can someone like me do it too? But my inventions don't seem to be of much help." Otto hesitated, lacking confidence in himself. Saving the world sounded too lofty and unrealistic; he just wanted to stay home and work on his inventions.

Upon hearing this, a sentence suddenly popped into Yaeji's mind, and he blurted out: "Science and technology are the primary productive forces."

Karen looked completely bewildered; she clearly didn't understand what those words meant.

Otto, however, frowned, as if he had realized something.

Yae Ji laughed awkwardly twice. He actually liked Otto very much, not only because he could independently create things that resembled technological products, but also because he had many of Rin's traits in him.

Equally cute, equally timid, and both suffering from health problems—a series of coincidences combined to make Yae Ji admire Otto even more than the energetic loli Kallen.

“That’s all too far ahead.” Yae Ji moved on from the awkward remark and tried to extend an invitation to Otto: “I have some suggestions for the flying wing we just discussed. Would you like to hear them? For example, regarding materials and structure, what do you think?”

"You know about these things too?" Otto was surprised. In this era, the things he made were considered frivolous and unproductive. This beautiful and powerful young woman in front of him was actually wasting her precious time on something like this?

"Hmm, I can provide you with more resilient wood. Interested?"

"Yes!" Otto exclaimed excitedly, but then calmed down and whispered, "My brother won't let me leave here."

She looked up at Yae Ji with a pitiful expression: "Can I come to my room?"

"Wait a minute! I want to join in too. I want to fix this broken wing myself," Karen said anxiously. She had been here for so many days and had finally found two friends of similar age, and she was unwilling to give them up.

Yae Ji thought for a moment and said, "Is it Ned who won't let you go out?"

"Ah."

"I'll go tell him."

"Hey?! No, don't go!" Otto said anxiously, "My brother has a bit of a temper, you'll have to go to him like this."

Yaeji waved to him, indicating that Otto didn't need to worry, and then turned and called out towards the study, "Nide!"

Less than half a minute later, Ned emerged from the study with a book in his hand. The high sun outside made him squint, but he muttered, "Don't rush, don't rush, I've got a clue. Give me some more time."

Once his eyes had adjusted to the sunlight, Ned raised an eyebrow. What was going on?

Pink, golden, white?!

He'd only been inside a short while, right? How come even members of the Kaslana family are in his yard?

"Got a clue?" Upon hearing this, Yae Ji seemed like a completely different person, instantly flashing to Ned's side!

This speed left Otto and Karen speechless; the previous fleeting glimpse was nothing compared to the shock of experiencing it again.

"Any leads? Are you confident you can reconnect Rin's Achilles tendon?"

"Don't worry, with so many books in the book, I'll find it eventually."

"You didn't read any myths or legends, did you?" Yae Ji asked skeptically.

Ned shook his head and gestured with his chin toward Kallen, "An ancient weapon, it seems the Kaslana family has one."

"Weapons?" Yaeji frowned, unable to understand Ned's meaning.

"Yes, we at Destiny have unearthed some things in various places, and we've come to understand some of them. The ancestral weapon of the Kaslana family is suspected to be a relic from ancient times."

"Wait a minute." Yae Ji interrupted Ned: "Weapons have always been things of killing, what does that have to do with repairing Rin's Achilles tendon?"

Ned closed the book and looked at Yae Ji. "I remember you passed the Valkyrie candidate selection test, right?"

"Ah."

What are your thoughts on the equipment used for physical fitness testing?

"That was dug out too, right?"

"Pretty much." Ned said nonchalantly. "Having witnessed the miracles of ancient times, do you think Miss Rin's illness is beyond cure?"

Ned flipped through these handwritten books, the text giving him a headache. "The priests recorded a lot of ancient texts, but unfortunately they could only record them in books. To this day, they still haven't figured out what those texts mean."

"What's with the physical fitness testing equipment?"

Ned grinned: "You'll only have the authority to know that once you officially join a certain Schicksal unit."

After saying this, Ned opened a page in the book, on which a hastily drawn picture demonstrated the recorder's skill in drawing.

Ned pointed to an extremely strange weapon and said, "Look, this thing is the [Heavenly Fire Judgment]."

Chapter 82 Black Abyss White Flower

Yae-ji moved closer to Ned and stared intently at the hand-drawn illustrations in the book.

The weapon in the picture is quite different from the current mainstream knives, swords, and guns. The [Heavenly Fire Judgment] is extremely short. Judging from its appearance, Yae Ji felt a chill. In the dream world, the army generally carries weapons called "guns". This "gun" is not "that gun". It is a type of firearm. The [Heavenly Fire Judgment] looks very similar to a pistol.

In an instant, Yae Ji thought of many things. Could it be that the ancient era that Ned spoke of was related to the other world in his dream?

Holding the book, Ned glanced at Yae Ji and turned the page. "You don't need to look at the text. No one can understand what's written on it. Just look at the pictures."

Images of lances, golden swords, and giant crosses flashed before Yaeji's eyes.

The book contained a lot of text. Yae Ji recalled that a few days ago, during the physical fitness test, similar text was displayed on the giant iron coffin-like instrument. However, at that time, he seemed to be able to understand what was written on it!
