Collapse, Kaslana's Way of Survival

Nodding, Keno gently pushed the door open, pulled the somewhat resisting Siegfried to his side, took a deep breath and spoke loudly.

"Kiana, look who's here?"

"Wait, wait... Oops, I lost!" Kiana, who was sweating profusely and struggling with the controller, was startled by the voice. Bronya seized the opportunity and took down her character who was already low on health.

Looking at her depleted health bar on the screen, Kiana collapsed to the floor in frustration. A second later, the same voice from before rang out. Kiana instantly stood up, turned around, and angrily addressed Kaino.

"Kaino, what are you yelling about? It's all your fault that I died! I'm telling you in advance, there's no such thing as three ice creams—"

Kiana finally saw the people standing at the door and her words froze, her eyes widening.

Chapter 218 A Not-So-Beautiful Misunderstanding

Kiana suddenly punched Bronya hard on the head.

Caught by this unexpected attack, Bronya's gaze shifted from the doorway to Kiana, her eyes looking as if she were looking at a dead paramecium.

"B-Bronya," Kiana's trembling voice suddenly rang out, "Does it hurt?"

Glancing at Kiana, Bronya suppressed the urge to summon the Heavy Armor Bunny to let Kiana feel the pain firsthand.

She knew Siegfried. After all, his appearance and name had been on the wanted list of Tianming for quite some time.

Although she had never seen her father since she was a child and therefore had not been able to experience his love, she still remembered the feeling she had when she suddenly saw Xi's child. Therefore, she understood that Kiana's mood at this moment must be very complicated and excited...

And I was so happy that I couldn't believe it was reality.

It seems that I got beaten in vain this time.

"If this was a dream, Kiana wouldn't have lost to Bronya just now." Bronya reminded expressionlessly.

"Also, if that idiot Kiana still can't believe it, then Bronya suggests you hit yourself directly on the head, using twice the force you used to hit Bronya before—after all, idiots have harder and thicker skin."

Kiana's eyes were dazed when she heard that. She stared at Siegfried for a few seconds as he greeted her with a smile on his face. Then she suddenly exerted force with both hands holding the controller, broke the controller cable and threw it towards Siegfried.

The game controller thrown out by Kaslana's extraordinary strength drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit Siegfried's head accurately.

"Hiss, it hurts, it hurts!" Siegfried caught the fallen controller with one hand, rubbed his head and complained to Kiana, "Hey, Kiana, it's been so long, can you at least give me, your dad, some face?"

At least use your fists to hit him instead of throwing things around?

Kiana on this side stood up from the ground after hearing what Siegfried said, gritted her teeth and rushed towards Siegfried with great momentum.

"...Of course I saw it very clearly, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to hit it so accurately!"

Suddenly intimidated by his daughter's aura, Siegfried couldn't move forward to attack her. Later, Kayno quietly restrained him, preventing him from retreating and running away. In desperation, he forced a fawning smile and begged for mercy from Kiana, who was running towards him.

"Well, Kiana, you have to be gentle. At least, don't hit me in the face!?"

Without replying, Kiana rushed over and decisively gave Siegfried a hook punch, causing a big bump to swell up on his chin instantly.

"You bastard dad, you still have the nerve to say that!"

Kiana gritted her teeth to control her tears and threw herself into Siegfried's arms, clenching her fists and hammering Siegfried's chest rapidly.

"You ran away without saying anything, leaving me alone in that little cabin. To find you, I've traveled to almost every country in the world over the years, doing almost every job from picking up trash to delivering food..."

"Where have you been all these years?"

Unlike Bianca, who lost her past memories and started a new life, and unlike Kayno, who knew exactly where her family was but couldn't directly recognize them for various reasons, Kiana has lived in fear since she was separated from her father at a young age.

With her father's fate unknown and her own identity a mystery, Kiana wakes up one day at home, overcome by a sense of unease that threatens to overwhelm her. She clings to the somewhat elusive goal of finding her father and begins her journey.

After searching almost all over the world, she finally found her relative Theresa in the Far East. At the same time, she got the exact news about her father for the first time. Only then did she finally let go of her panic-filled heart and started a relaxed and comfortable school life with the few good friends in her life.

But this does not mean that she was completely relaxed.

Despite her usual cheerful demeanor, Kiana is a sensitive girl at heart. Her father's sudden departure when she was young, the heartache and pain of years of travel... everything accumulated deep within her heart, a grievance that finally erupted upon seeing the person who had been with her the longest, from the very beginning of her life, and brought her to tears.

Siegfried's expression became complicated. He held Kiana in one hand and used the other hand to comfort her on the head.

"These years, I actually..."

Noticing Siegfried's hesitation in speaking, Bianca took a deep breath and took a step forward, beginning her first conversation with her sister since she lost her memory.

"Kiana, father has been secretly protecting you all these years. But for some reason, he can never meet you."

Kiana's sobs faltered when she suddenly heard a strange woman's voice. She raised her head from Siegfried's embrace, looked at Bianca, who looked solemn, with a surprised expression, and spoke subconsciously.

"Who are you?"

Bianca choked, clenched her hands together, and didn't know how to speak.

Am I your sister?

Although she had planned this before she lost her memory, she ultimately failed to gain his approval. Furthermore, the other person had been with her for much longer, both in terms of memory and time with their loved ones.

Then I am your sister?

...Bianca, who was pretty good at biology, didn't allow herself to answer like that.

Finally unable to bear the scene of the three Kaslanas staring at each other, Kainuo sighed lightly, patted Bianca's shoulder and gave Kiana a helpless look.

"Kiana, how come you're still so dumb after not seeing you for a few days? Didn't Bianca just tell you everything? Father, you still don't understand?"

Hearing Kaino's words, Kiana also recalled the key points of Bianca's words. At the same time, she finally noticed Kaino's white hair and blue eyes today, and her pupils dilated slightly.

She looked at Kainuo in disbelief, and her voice unconsciously carried a hint of panic.

"Kaino, you, you..."

"Yes." Kayno nodded.

Under the gaze of Bronya's expressionless face and Kiana's panicked eyes, he pointed at Bianca and himself and gave a real self-introduction.

"Bianca Kaslana, Keno Kaslana, Bianca's and my real names."

After saying this, he looked at Kiana with concern again.

"So it's pretty obvious, isn't it? Bianca and I are both your father's children. In other words, we're your older brothers and sisters."

After listening to what Kayno said, Kiana gritted her teeth and finally confirmed one of the worst possibilities she had imagined while wandering around the world.

"So," Kiana raised her head and looked around at Siegfried, Keno, and Bianca, all of whom had different expressions, and her voice trembled unconsciously, "I am my father's illegitimate daughter?"

As she spoke, she clenched her fists and a hint of self-mockery appeared on her face.

"So, by coming here today, are you finally accepting my identity as a wild child?"

Chapter 219: There is no such thing as a melodramatic love story in a world of collapse

This idea was not sudden, she had expected it a long time ago.

Her father was obviously a warrior of destiny, but he was put on the wanted list of destiny and took her to hide in a remote snowfield; she was obviously her daughter, but in the first few years, she didn't like her very much. Instead, she kept repeating the name Kiana and always looked bitter and resentful.

After wandering for a long time, he met his so-called aunt, but she not only refused to tell him about his father's whereabouts, but also took a series of measures to conceal her identity. Moreover, although Theresa also loved her so-called niece, she clearly favored her classmate Kaino.

She's smart, you can tell.

Speaking of Kainuo...

Looking carefully at Keno, who had a more obvious Kaslana bloodline, and Bianca, who had bright blonde hair, Kiana reluctantly put the last piece of the puzzle together for her guess.

Although Siegfried never told her her mother's name and appearance, he briefly mentioned that she had the same white hair as her.

Can two people with white hair give birth to a person with blonde hair? Kiana thinks not.

Considering that Kayno's previous appearance was probably in disguise and he also had blonde hair, Kiana sighed inwardly, putting all the clues together and piecing together the truth of the matter.

In the distant headquarters of the Fate of Heaven, Siegfried, the son of the Kaslana clan leader, was forced into marriage with a blonde girl, presumably a powerful figure in the Fate of Heaven. Although their relationship may not have been profound, they did produce a son and a daughter, one taking after the father and the other after the mother.

But precisely because the two had no feelings for each other, Siegfried couldn't stand the loneliness and secretly fell in love with Kiana, a girl of not noble status. However, because of his S-level strength, no one discovered this.

--Until she was conceived and gave birth.

The moment a child is born, the identity of the parents is instantly known. Even when fighting against the destiny of destruction, even when Valkyries are at risk of death, infidelity is clearly unforgivable.

Her mother died at the hands of fate in front of her father, who was heartbroken. She was also about to suffer the same fate. But for some unknown reason, Siegfried successfully rescued her and escaped from fate, but was wanted by fate.

She suspected the opportunity was either her brother, Kainuo, or her aunt. She vaguely remembered meeting a white-haired boy as a child. The former had disguised himself and approached her, indulging her willfulness, while the latter had taken her to Saint Freya and provided her with a stable life.

Of course, it doesn’t matter what the opportunity is.

Siegfried took her to hide in a remote snowy area, caring for her while blaming her for her mother's death. Finally, Siegfried saw the shadow of his mother in her perseverance, hard work, and kindness, so he gave her the name Kiana in memory of her mother, and they finally began to live a peaceful and stable life.

However, the good times did not last long, and the people of destiny finally found them.

That day, the blazing flames of Heaven's Fire burned through the snowy plains, but they were no match for the mighty armies of Destiny. Concerned for her life, Siegfried agreed to Destiny's terms and left her behind. In the end, he could only follow her situation through various rumors, filled with worry but unable to do anything.

The matter came to an end only after Kaino found her and Theresa, who had held her in her arms as a child, gave her a place to stay.

Although it was unclear why her father had been released, and why those people who had not appeared in the past few years suddenly appeared, if this was a charity from that family, she didn't need it.

Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. She will become an S-rank Valkyrie through her own efforts and prove to the entire destiny...

"Pfft hahaha!"

Xiao Shi, who had been using his power to see what Kiana was thinking, slapped his thigh suddenly and couldn't help laughing any longer. He held onto Fu Hua's shoulders.

"No, I can't help it. What kind of second-rate, melodramatic love story is this? The other consciousness in your body is laughing... Ouch, Kaino, don't hit me!"

"Be calm, the situation is chaotic enough."

Ignoring Xiaozhi who bared his teeth and looked threatening at him after being hit by him, Kainuo looked at Kiana who was full of indignation, holding his head in pain, not knowing how to explain all this to Kiana.

"Hey, what do you mean by a second-rate, melodramatic romance? My speculation is clearly consistent with the actual situation, right?!"

Kiana, who was ridiculed, looked at Xiao Shi with wide eyes and an indignant look. She gritted her teeth and looked at Fu Hua again.

"Class monitor, keep a close eye on your sister! She's been so naughty, she's bound to be bullied in the future."

Holding tightly to Xiao Shi, who was about to lose his temper after hearing Kiana's words, Fu Hua sighed with a tired look on her face and turned to look at Kainuo.

"Kaino, please explain this to Kiana quickly, otherwise things will get more and more complicated. Also, although I don't know where you got the Yudu Dust, using it to spy on other people's minds is always wrong. I hope you will remember this."

After hearing these words, before Kayno even made a move, Kiana realized something was wrong and became surprised.

"...Wait, spying on my mind?! Yeah, I didn't say what I was thinking just now!"

Kiana looked alert, but she was extremely panicked in her heart.

What should I do? The other party will know everything I am thinking!

That Meiyi... No, don't think about Meiyi, don't think about Meiyi, don't think about Meiyi...

"Stop! Stop mumbling!"

Kaino was annoyed by Kiana's mumbling in her heart, and said to Kiana.

This was almost the same level of mental pollution as Feiyuwan, and it was incredibly disturbing. If the girl before him wasn't his sister, if he hadn't just discovered that the Herrscher of the Void's consciousness was extremely active within her, he would have quit long ago.

"If you hope I won't nag you, then please stop peeping into my consciousness!" Kiana said with wide eyes.

"Impossible!" Kainuo sternly refused, "This is for your own good!"

"Ha, anyone would say that!"

"All right!"

Finally unable to bear this farce, Siegfried frowned and shouted, and the two stopped arguing instantly.

He looked at Kiana, who had a lot to say, and spoke solemnly.

"Kiana, Kaino-kun, Yang(IIw)Jiu(I)Sanviii Liu, since you said that, it is indeed for your own good. He is a good brother, you can trust him."

"Is that so?"

Kiana glanced at Kayno with some suspicion, but when she thought about it, if they were just siblings, then he was indeed a good brother during their time in Saint Freya, so she nodded hesitantly.

"Okay then... so I guessed wrong just now?" Kiana asked. "And what about that second consciousness that person who looks a lot like Fu Hua just mentioned... I don't have schizophrenia?"

"I'll explain that to you later." Kainuo waved his hand and said, "You've indeed misjudged your background. The truth is far less complicated and melodramatic."

"Huh, that's good." Kiana breathed a sigh of relief.

Wiping the non-existent sweat from her forehead, Kiana thought of Bianca's hair again, and countless doubts flooded her mind.

"If that's the case, then why is my...sister's hair blonde? Is it a disguise, just like yours?" Kiana pointed at Bianca. "Also, is our mother the same person?"

Chapter 220 Why not a boy?

Kaino felt a little embarrassed when he heard Kiana's question.

"This question...is a little bit difficult to explain."

"What's so difficult about this?" Kiana's eyes widened with confusion. "Is it so hard to explain whether my sister's hair is dyed or natural? Is our mother the same person? That can be explained in just a few words, right?"

It's really not.
