Collapse, the Ordinary Daily Life of the Valkyries

The busy atmosphere in Kaslana's house now is due to the preparations before moving.

"You should thank me, because I left here and you can enjoy this room all by yourself."

Kiana ignored her sister's condescending words and pointed to the closet.

"By the way, aren't you taking the things in the closet?"

Since they'd been sharing this room for so long, the closet was overflowing with their belongings. It was mostly filled with things they couldn't bear to throw away, so it probably didn't contain essentials for their new home. But if they didn't have the chance, they probably wouldn't open it and sort it out, so they decided to clean it out while they were there. While sorting their moving belongings, they also cleaned out the closet.

Xilin thought so.

After hearing her sister's answer, Kiana prepared herself mentally and opened the sliding door. Seeing the scene before her, she muttered to herself:

“…How do I even organize this?”

I opened the long-unopened closet door and found it was filled with clutter. I couldn't bear to throw it away, but I couldn't find a place to put it, so I stuffed it into the closet. The result of years of accumulation was exposed before my eyes.

The scene was quite spectacular, like a wall.

Even so, we still had to find a way to clean it up. We could only dismantle it piece by piece.

The two men were careful not to let the wall collapse suddenly, and moved cautiously, removing the debris one by one from the top.

Just when the tidying work was finally coming to an end, Kiana discovered something.

"What's this?"

There was something tucked away in the corner of the closet. She pulled it out and saw it was an old metal box. Kiana opened the lid, wondering why something like that was tucked away in the closet.

The box contained letters and postcards, which were divided into several stacks according to different senders and then tied together with rubber bands.

“This is…”

I only remembered it now.

When Kiana was still in elementary school, she used to keep the letters and New Year's cards she received in that metal box. However, as time passed, the correspondence between Kiana and her friends ceased, and the need for the metal box diminished, until eventually even the habit faded. Even so, Kiana couldn't bear to throw away the letters and New Year's cards, so she stuffed the entire metal box into a cupboard.

Kiana picked up the letter with a nostalgic feeling and read through the contents one by one.

As an elementary school student, Kiana used to write New Year's cards to her friends, but now she feels too lazy to even send a text message wishing them a happy new year. She's gradually changed her mind and decided that she'll meet up with her school friends after the new semester starts anyway, so she can just say congratulations then.

Just as Kiana recalled these past events——

"Oh~~ I miss it so much."

Hearing a voice nearby, Kiana turned to see Mei's face nearby. It looked like she'd just arrived, but the closet was already organized, so there wasn't much left for her to help with. Kiana was about to complain about her lack of help when Mei handed something to her. A white envelope obscured her view. The sender was her grandmother, and the recipient was Kaslana Kiana.

"I just happened to see the postman coming downstairs, so I took it for you—uh, why do you have such a complicated expression?"

"No, I'm very grateful to you, but is it really okay for me to receive the letter for you? You're not a member of our family."

"Because I happened to meet the postman when I arrived. It's a kindness on my part, so I'd like to thank you anyway."

"Ah~~ If you say so, then it is. Thank you."

"There's no sincerity at all."

Kiana ignored Mei's dissatisfaction, took the white envelope, and found a pair of scissors. He was careful not to cut the letter paper and cut off the top edge of the envelope with one knife.

Cecilia peeked out of the kitchen and walked to the entrance when she saw that Mei had indeed arrived.

"Hey, Mei-san, what's wrong?"

Cecilia seemed quite fond of Mei, even when she was wearing a mask. On the night of her first visit, Cecilia questioned their relationship and warned, "If she's your girlfriend, don't let her go easily." Perhaps Cecilia's fantasy of her future daughter-in-law had already taken shape.

"I hope you can let me stay with you for a while."

"Eh? A while? Not just tonight?"

Ignoring Kiana's surprise, Cecilia asked Mei:

"Oh my, why?"

"Well, it's a little hard to say..."

I need a place to stay because I have to practice until late at the piano studio in front of the station recently.

Mei honestly explained the need for the choir competition and Rika's practice. Cecilia smiled and agreed to Mei's request, then mentioned the journey from the piano classroom to Kiana's house late at night.

"Call me after practice and I'll send Kiana to pick you up."

"Why me!?"

"Thank you so much."

"If you want to thank someone, you should thank me."

Kiana was a little dissatisfied, but he decided not to take it too seriously and went upstairs. After he changed into his home clothes in his room, Cecilia came into the room with Mei.

"Then Miss Raiden, please stay here tonight."

It seems that Cecilia has agreed to let Mei stay with her temporarily.

But let’s put this aside for now.

"Wait, if Mei wants to use this room, where am I supposed to sleep?"

Kiana objected, and Cecilia thought briefly before replying:

"You can't sleep in the same room anyway. You can sleep in the living room."

"Mom, don't you think this is ridiculous?"

"Well, this is indeed a bit funny."

"That's not what I meant. I meant it's irrational. Anyway, is there something funny about this?"

"Don't be so red... There's no need to be shy."

"I'm angry!"

When Kiana resolutely resisted, Mei suddenly spoke up and expressed her opinion:

"Well, it's okay if I sleep in the same room."

"But Miss Mei..."

"No problem. I trust Kiana-san."

"Is it really possible?"

"Yes."

"Is that so... Then I'll bring Mei-san's bedding over later."

"Thank you for your help."

Cecilia seemed to think that since Mei had said so, she should just go along with her. But Kiana thought this was too strange. Why would Cecilia not trust her own daughter but trust a girl she had only just met? It was illogical, there was definitely something wrong.

Cecilia ignored Kiana's dissatisfaction and left the room.

Because Kiana's sister Silin moved out, it had been a long time since the four of Kaslana's family had dinner together. However, today, there were four people sitting at the table for the first time in a long time.

Volume 1: Did we really defeat Honkai?: Chapter 60: Mei is ready to go out

Arriving at the music room, Rosalia skillfully sat in his arms, rubbing her thighs wrapped in warm white stockings gently to please her captain:

"Captain~ Now, there's no Bronya to bother us."

"Idiot Rosalia, get off the captain. This is a special recording studio built just for us. Bronya has installed security cameras."

Lilia pointed at the two surveillance cameras carelessly fixed high in the corner of the wall. Rosalia rolled her eyes.

"How come Bronya likes to take care of so many things after growing up? It's incredible."

Bronya, who was dissed by Rosalia, actually didn't have time to pay attention to the captain. At the moment, she was concerned with Mei about the sales of "Imaginary Ring" released today.

"Sales have exceeded 10000. Have you earned the official designer title?"

"It must have been exposed by a live streamer, a gaming influencer, or the media, right?"

Looking at the background information of 114514 copies sold and the title of junior designer obtained, Bronya made some guesses, while Mei continued her observation.

"Wow, drink it!"

Although she didn't understand what she was yelling about, her anger towards Ping was conveyed.

“I’ll kill you!”

Kiana's fingers touched the handle of the bottle, and just as the rough touch unique to pottery reached her fingers—

Clap!

A dazzling flash of light covered Kiana's vision.

"Wow!"

Kiana was so surprised that she let out a somewhat stupid scream.

The seven-colored light, like a rainbow of neon lights, shone from the demon's eyes carved into the bottle. If it were accompanied by disco music, it would seem as if it would burst into dance.

This sudden change frightened Kiana so much that she almost collapsed. The dazzling light made her squint her eyes and wave her hands meaninglessly.

Then, accompanied by a pleasant sound effect, a large amount of white smoke came out of the bottle.

Bang!

"Wow! What's going on~~!"

A large amount of white smoke gradually covered the surroundings, taking away Kiana's vision. Kiana tried to look around in panic, but could not see anything.

At this moment, the nostalgic promotional slogan came into Kiana's ears in a hoarse and sexy male voice.

"When summoned, he rushed out—"

The sound paused briefly here. During this time, the white smoke gradually dissipated, and the shadow of something twisting and turning could be seen on the other side of the smoke.

“Clang clang clang!”

After a few seconds, the white smoke almost dissipated, and a mysterious shadow became clearly visible. There, a Chinese man was sitting on an upright bottle, one hand raised and posing.

"what?"

He had long silver hair, light brown skin, and bright red eyes. White cloth hung around his chest and waist, slightly covering his skin, and sparkling colorful gems adorned his hair and neck. His body was covered with several layers of transparent fabric, and his dancer-like clothes reminded people of countries like India or Arabia.

And that man was incredibly beautiful. Combined with his dreamlike appearance, he looked like a dancer leaping from a fantasy world. Kiana couldn't help but forget the pain in her teeth as she watched, entranced.

The man said to Kiana with a smile: "Hello~~ You are a little inconspicuous and have no sense of existence, trying to cross under the kapok tree with a gloomy expression on your face! Today is a miraculous lucky day! There is great luck

It's going to happen to you~~!" (! Seven) Ling⒏ Wu Zhu." Liu Ling Qi (Seven) Ling Meng

The man spoke rapidly and incessantly.

Kiana wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. Confused and shaken, she just opened and closed her mouth like a goldfish.

Seeing Kiana's expression, the man took the opportunity to continue, "Great news! You have been chosen as Gao Su, my second apostle - the Herrscher of the Void. I will grant you three wishes! As long as they are not dangerous wishes such as conquering the world or falsifying history, they are probably OK! So, what do you want to wish for? Wealth? Do you want gold and silver treasures that you can play with for a lifetime? Or do you hope to stand out? If you want to become the president of an excellent company, that's easy. Ah, does your inconspicuous appearance make you feel inferior? Even if You can achieve a perfect appearance without the trendy micro-plastic surgery. Or do you want to use it for your own interests? From the ultimate humanoid decisive battle weapon to the all-purpose weapon girl, anything is fine! You're not interested in that kind of thing, are you? In that case, do you want a tsundere mother of twelve twins? Or a confused, busty lolita with glasses and cat ears who is also your childhood sweetheart? Or me, myself? Just kidding~~! So, what wish do you want to fulfill~~? As the devil among devils, I will take responsibility and make it happen~~!"

Kiana looked at the woman with boiling blood and froze in her place.

Although he calls himself a demon god, he is inexplicably aware of otaku's preferences and even said something rather disrespectful without realizing it. Although he is full of questions, they are all irrelevant. Because there are more important things to do now.

Kiana's teeth were in bad shape, very bad. The revived pain danced a Texas-style dance in her mouth.

pop-

Kiana clapped her hands perfunctorily and tried to pass by the man who called himself Gao Su.

"You were able to deliver such a long line so smoothly. Are you the host? That's quite impressive. This is a prank show, right? These days, prank shows are really being produced with great care. Well, I'll take my leave now."

In this age of advanced science, few people would, like Aladdin, believe that something like this suddenly occurred before their eyes, that it was the genie of the lamp. Naturally, Kiana also believed it was a meticulous amateur prank. She couldn't think of any other possibility.

Besides, even if he stayed here with them in their prank show, his teeth wouldn't heal. But Gao Su wrapped his arm around Kiana's, preventing her from escaping, and whispered in her ear, begging, "Oh, don't say that. Tell me your wish. Please—I'll take responsibility and make it happen for you. Okay? Please."

The warm breath blowing against her ear made Kiana instantly forget the pain. How should I describe the soft touch on her arm that she experienced for the first time? It was truly not good.

If this continues, I feel like I'm going to pass out from the pain and pleasure.

Kiana's face flushed red as she shouted in despair, "Ah—I get it, then please heal my cavities! I'm almost at my limit! I admit it, I'm seventeen and it still hurts so much I'm about to cry! Please think of a way for me!"

After Kiana's idiotic outburst, Gao Su reacted instantly. It was like a flash of inspiration. His eyes seemed to gleam, or had Kiana misjudged him?

"I know! Transform!"

Gao Su spoke cheerfully, and spun around on tiptoe. In a flash of light, the black cloak he had been wearing turned into the familiar uniform of a doctor.

While the white coat and stethoscope hung around his neck resembled those of a typical physician, something else was off. For example, the black suit he wore underneath, and his half-white hair. And the scar that suddenly appeared, stretching from his brow to his cheek, was a spitting image of a well-known unlicensed physician. Even the other details were a true disguise.
