I have no regrets about my 2D world!

"So, you mean that 'Kiana' was also cloned?" Cecilia frowned slightly. She understood what Bai wanted to say.

"K423, Otto created a clone based on the genes of the children of the two most powerful men of this century, the Shaniyat and Kaslana families. Originally, none of these clones should have survived, but Otto had a sudden inspiration and integrated the Herrscher of the Void core into K423, giving it consciousness.

The strongest of the Shaniyat family died in the second Honkai. Her husband learned that his child had been cloned and planned to leave here with K423, the only conscious child, and Kiana, but some accidents happened. Kiana disappeared and K423 was taken away.

After going through a series of things, K423 was given the name Kiana, and at some point... began to wander.

Kiana should have told you what happened afterwards, so I won’t say more.

Well, I guess most of the problems have been solved, right?"

"Huh~ Thank you so much." Cecilia took a deep breath and managed to calm herself down.

She had thought that Kiana's situation was special, but she didn't expect it to be such a special case.

K423, Otto, clone.

If Cecilia's feelings towards Otto were admiration before and respect after marriage, now that she knew all this, her feelings towards him had completely turned into unfamiliarity, and she even had the urge to beat Otto up.

But she is not in a hurry now. After all, in her eyes, things have changed. She did not die in the second collapse, and the Herrscher of the Sky is alive and well. Otto may not create a clone of Kiana.

Of course, if it was really created and she discovered it, she would probably follow the path of Siegfried in the incident described by Bai.

"It's okay. These are things you should know. I don't want you to think of this Kiana as the one in your family. Otherwise, Kiana will be sad when she finds out."

"Well, I understand, but no matter what, they are my children."

Cecilia nodded slightly, thinking of Kiana's coquettish look yesterday, her eyes full of doting.

"Okay, now that you know about Kiana's birth, let's hear about Kiana's current situation."

"Go ahead," Cecilia retracted her attention.

"Kiana is now in a coma..."

Chapter 130 This Pet Is Not That Pet

I chatted with Cecilia for a few hours and roughly told her about Kiana's current situation, but I didn't say where this place was exactly. I just followed what Kiana had said before.

Afterwards, Cecilia was told that Kiana could stay here for a year. As long as she didn't take the initiative to cause trouble, no one would notice her, so there was no need to worry about Otto doing anything.

The matter of the Tower of Babylon has come to an end. No matter what happens in the future, he will come to take Kiana away in a year.

Of course, if anything happens during this period, Kiana can contact him directly.

After finishing his general explanation, Bai quickly left the camp while Cecilia didn't continue to ask about his relationship with Kiana.

Although Cecilia is not older than him, since he is on the same level as Kiana, Cecilia is naturally an elder in his eyes.

He didn't mind chatting with elders, after all, he often chatted with Mei's father before, but Cecilia's look of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law made him feel very uncomfortable.

He felt that if he didn't leave, Cecilia would probably consider finding out about his situation.

Or maybe he's already considering it.

......

Returning to the Tower of Babylon, Bai found that Xilin was already sitting quietly in the living room, sipping something that looked like juice, her eyes a little wandering.

"Is everything packed already, Celine?"

"It's done!" Xilin responded instinctively after coming to her senses, then muttered softly, "There's nothing to clean up..."

Bai smiled and didn't care, "Have you thought about where to go?"

Xilin shook her head slightly, "I'll go wherever you go."

"In that case... let's find a quieter place."

Judging from Xilin's current situation, she probably doesn't want to interact with other people. As for Bai himself, he can accept liveliness, but he doesn't like it to be too noisy.

So if possible, it would be best to find a place that is lively but not noisy in the literal sense, and Bai just happened to have already made a choice in his mind.

The orphanage in Cocolia.

There were people in there who were about the same age as Xilin. As long as they didn't have bad personalities, they should be able to play together. And with Cocolia watching over them, at most there would be some quarrels due to uneven distribution of certain food or toys, but that level of conflict wouldn't have any impact at all.

And even if Xilin didn't want to contact those people, he thought of a 'person' who could be Xilin's friend and not be excluded.

"By the way, Xilin, when you became a Herrscher, did you sense a being of the same origin as yourself?"

"A being of the same origin? It seems there is one." Xilin lowered her head and thought for a moment. "At that time, I seemed to feel that there was a creature under Siberia that kept calling me, but I was thinking about other things at the time so I ignored it."

"That should be your companion Honkai Beast. Can you still call it out now?"

What is a companion Honkai beast?

A hint of doubt flashed through Xilin's mind, and she nodded slightly.

"Is it any use if I can just shout it out?"

“Let me find you a companion.

Don't be so quick to refuse. A companion Honkai beast is like a pet to a Herrscher. We're going to live together from now on, and it would be a bit lonely just the two of us in such a big place. Bringing it along as a pet would add a bit of liveliness."

Seeing the vigilance in Xilin's eyes, Bai quickly explained.

Xilin's delicate and fragile heart is already full of people, and even one more person might cause overload and lead to other changes.

This state is fine for a while, but it can't be maintained for long, so Bai plans to start with pets to let Xilin slowly accept the other colors in life.

No matter what it is, at least the name of pet is currently very useful.

As expected, when Xilin heard that it was a pet, her expression became much more relaxed.

"That's not a problem, but I feel like this pet seems a bit too big."

Xilin let go of the blockage against the sound in her mind and felt it carefully, and found that the so-called pet's body length was almost longer than the Tower of Babel.

This body type is impossible to raise, right?

"It's okay. Just open a space channel leading there, and I'll take care of the rest."

"OK then."

Although she didn't know how Bai would handle it, Xilin already believed in Bai unconditionally at this time.

With a wave of his hand, a golden hole appeared in front of the two men. Before they could make any move, a scorching breath spurted out from it in the form of white mist.

What followed was a hard white shell, which looked like the head of something, but it stopped just after it appeared a little, as if it was stuck.

Looking at the 'pet' who seemed to want to make the hole bigger to make it easier for him to come in, Bai smiled and walked forward, placing his palm on it.

There was no fancy scene. In just one second, the part of the pet's shell that had been sticking out disappeared.

A few seconds later, a girl with long white hair walked out of the passage in confusion.

Because Bai was standing in front of the passage, the girl naturally noticed him first.

However, the girl just glanced at him, her body trembling unconsciously, and then she noticed Xilin behind Bai.

Her eyes lit up, and she ran around Bai and came to Xilin, hugging her in front of Xilin's surprised eyes.

"Owner!"

"Wait a moment!" Xilin used her hands to pull the girl away from her.

"You're...Bella?"

"Is this the name my master gave me? Then I'll be called Bella from now on!"

Bella cheered, but left Celine a little confused.

Bella was one of her few good friends before, but she died early due to an overdose of Honkai energy.

But this girl in front of him who really has the aura of a 'pet' is so similar to Bella, no, it should be said that they are exactly the same!

Xilin looked at Bai, hoping to get an explanation.

“Her original name was supposed to be Benares. She had no consciousness of her own, only the instinct to obey orders, so I made her a little smarter, so that she would at least look like a normal person.

I discovered this appearance when I was looking at the files here before, so I thought that using this appearance might make it easier for you, Xilin, to accept it.

If you don’t like it, you can change it to something else.”

High-level Honkai beasts may have some autonomous awareness, but it is not rich. They often only know when to attack and when to escape. It is unrealistic to expect them to become friends with humans.

Since Sirin has not obtained the core gem of the Herrscher of Death, Bai plays the role of constructing a body for Benares.

Besides, he was not wrong. Compared to a stranger, even if he was called a 'pet', it was far less acceptable to a familiar person.

Of course, Xilin didn't care about Bella's 'resurrection'. After all, it was just another way of living. What she cared more about was Bella's appearance.

In her opinion, Bella, dressed up carefully, definitely looks as good as her. If she is really her friend, she doesn't mind too much, after all, friends won't compete with her for her.

But Bella was a 'pet', and what was worse was that she had to live with them.

Xilin raised her eyes and looked at Bella, who was looking at her with admiration and respect, with an unknown meaning flashing in her golden pupils.

I hope Bella is really just her 'pet', at least... until then...

Chapter 131: The Stumbling Block is Finally Removed

In the blink of an eye, a spring and autumn have passed, and more than half a year has passed since the hastily concluded Second Collapse.

Bai, Xilin, and Bella, the two people and one beast, have settled down near the Cocolia Orphanage.

Alexandra, who was extra pulled by him to help Cocolia take care of the children in the orphanage, gave birth to Bronya some time ago, and now she has become the one being taken care of.

Fortunately, there are many mature people in the orphanage, so even if there is one less manager, there is no big problem at the moment.

Some time ago, Cecilia took the opportunity of a mission to bring Kiana here, and discovered their current situation.

Out of concern for Kiana, Cecilia had a good chat with Xilin. No one knew what they talked about, but after half a day, when Cecilia came out of Xilin's room, she had already held Xilin's hand skillfully.

Seeing them talking and laughing, Kiana, who was sitting nearby eating snacks and playing games, was shocked.

For a moment, it was impossible to tell who was Cecilia's daughter.

While Bai was nearby, Cecilia left Kiana here to complete the task alone, but seemed to say something to Kiana before leaving.

A few days later, Cecilia returned here after completing her mission, only to find that Kiana had not changed at all, and a look of helplessness appeared in her gentle eyes.

Without saying much, he simply said goodbye and took Kiana back to the Destiny headquarters.

Bai had no idea what happened when he returned, but from the messages Kiana sent from time to time, it could be seen that life seemed to be a bit difficult.

For example, he completed the task assigned by Cecilia yesterday, finished reading the book today, and will be randomly checked on his memory tomorrow, etc. In short, when he meets Kiana again, the first thing Kiana does is complain to him.

However, although Kiana looks very unlucky, Bai feels that the education she has received during this period seems to be quite good. At least Kiana no longer says "this lady is like this and that" when talking to outsiders.

......

Time passed quietly, and soon winter came again.

"Bella, get me a cup of tea."

"Okay, Your Lady Queen."

"Bella, bring me some snacks."

"Okay, Your Lady Queen."

"Bella, help me change... Never mind, I can do this myself."

"Your Majesty, this can also be given to me!"

"No, I can do this myself!"

After mercilessly pushing Bella out of the room, Xilin looked down at her pajamas and sighed helplessly.

At first, Bella always called her master, but later she heard Bai say, "Your master is the king of this world and space, and is absolutely worthy of the title of Queen." Since then, Bella seemed to be possessed, calling her Queen all the time, which made her feel embarrassed to go out with Bella.

Of course, if it were just this, it wouldn't make her so helpless. Compared to the problem of addressing her, Bella's clinginess was more troublesome.

Because they both looked like girls, and Bella didn't want to go anywhere except to be with her, the Queen, at first, so Xilin slept in the same room with Bella.

However, every day after waking up, Xilin would find an extra hand or foot on her body. At first, she thought it was just Bella's bad sleeping posture, so Xilin didn't pay much attention to it.

Until one day when she was sleeping, Bella suddenly hugged her body. She was immediately awakened and thought it was Bai who came to find her.

When I opened my eyes, I saw only a silly Bella smiling foolishly with her eyes closed. It seemed that she was having a sweet dream.

From then on, no matter how much Bella promised and begged, Xilin never let Bella sleep with her again.
