Firefly, I want to be a Sanyo Hermit

So, maybe she really came here to protect Xilin.

"!" Xilin stared at the smiling girl in front of her with wide eyes.

"What's wrong?" Kiana found that Xilin was staring at her blankly, and asked with her head tilted in confusion.

"Since... since you dare to say that, then... if you dare to betray me, I will kill you with my own hands." Xilin shouted viciously.

"But you can't beat me?" Kiana said with a smile.

"You mean, you will definitely betray me and I can't do anything to you, right?" Anger flashed in Xilin's golden eyes.

"Eh? From what angle do you have to think about things to get to that point?!" Kiana asked in shock.

"Hmph." Xilin snorted coldly and turned her head away.

"Um... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made that kind of joke." Kiana clapped her hands together and then moved closer to Xilin. "Can you please forgive me?"

As Mei Raiden's old top (self-proclaimed), she has long understood the principle of 'no matter whether it's my fault or not, I should apologize first'.

"You..." Xilin pointed at Kiana angrily, not knowing what to say for a long time.

"After all this time, Xilin, you must be tired. Let's find a place, eat something and have a good rest?" Seeing Xilin's look, Kiana quickly suggested.

"Eat?" Xilin showed a confused expression.

Her life was divided into three parts.

The girl who lived with her mother at first, the hellish life in the "Babylon Laboratory", the revenge period of becoming a Herrscher...

However, she had stayed in the Babylon Laboratory for too long, and many of her initial memories had become blurred.

This is also why, in Kiana's world, Sirin turned so completely evil.

The collapse recreated Sirin's blurred memories, even adding a filter, and then shattered them.

For Xilin, who had already become very extreme, it was natural for her to turn evil after seeing that scene.

"Yeah, let's go eat." Kiana nodded. "I know where there's good food."

"...Okay." Xilin's memory of delicious food was already very vague, but Kiana seemed to want to eat very much, so Xilin reluctantly agreed.

"Come on, let's go eat cake!" Kiana took Xilin's hand and then started the teleportation positioning.

In fact, to a certain extent, even Kiana doesn’t know what Xilin likes to eat, because Xilin herself doesn’t know.

But Kiana also knows one thing very well, she loves sweets!

Moreover, in her own world, the most important reason why Xilin could be conquered by Cecilia was the cake.

It was because the cake awakened Xilin's memory that gave Cecilia further opportunities.

So Kiana was sure that taking Xilin to eat cake was definitely the right choice.

But...the actual situation seems to be inconsistent with what Kiana imagined.

Oh, it's not that Xilin doesn't like sweets...it's something else that's even more outrageous.

"Huh?! Why is this store closed?!" Kiana pulled Sirin, who had already changed her clothes (clothes that could be made in Honkai), and teleported to a cake shop that she remembered was delicious. However, Kiana was surprised to find that this cake shop... was actually a shoe store!

"Cake?" Xilin pointed at the shoe store, a men's shoe store, with a subtle expression, and then looked at Kiana and repeated the syllable of "cake".

"Ahem, I remembered it wrong, but it doesn't matter!" Kiana coughed lightly, then put her hands on her hips and said, "I still remember other stores, let's go to another one."

Then, Qiana pulled Sirin to open the portal again, and this time they appeared at the door of a bar.

"This store looks very luxurious." Xilin, who had no idea what a bar was, looked at the beautifully decorated store in front of her and was about to walk in, but she was stopped by Kiana.

"Wait, minors are not allowed to enter here!" Kiana said quickly.

"Ah?" Xilin looked very strange.

Although she had been imprisoned for a long time, many of her memories were vague.

But she had never heard that there were cake shops that prohibited minors from entering.

"This store is a bar..." Kiana explained guiltily.

"..." Xilin took a deep breath and crossed her arms impatiently. "What do you mean by leading me around in circles?"

"Well..." Kiana bared her teeth and looked away. "Actually... well, actually I don't know the way."

"Ah?" Xilin looked at Kiana with a look that said, 'Are you an idiot?'

Before I knew it, the handsome and heroic Kiana had mostly disappeared...

A.11 I fell to the ground with serious injuries

"What can I do? Are all these stores opened in the past ten years? "This is Siberia, and Kiana naturally plans to take Xilin to the stores she is most familiar with.

The only shops Kiana was familiar with, apart from the ones she knew when she lived on the snowfield with Siegfried, were the ones she knew when she was wandering.

But in terms of the timeline, it was still more than ten years before she started wandering, and the Second Great Collapse that broke out that year caused drastic changes in the entire Siberia and even the world, so most of the stores that Kiana knew about were opened a few years after the Second Great Collapse broke out.

"My image of 'reliable Kiana' has been shattered!" Kiana wailed in her heart, but she showed no expression on her face.

"Then just look for something." Xilin didn't have much desire to eat, because the food in the 'Babylon Laboratory' was very poor, and most of the time they had to rely on nutrient solution.

Perhaps it is because those researchers feel that this will better stabilize the state changes of the experimental subjects.

"Yeah." Kiana nodded and closed her eyes slightly.

"?" Xilin felt a wonderful feeling, as if a layer of wind swept through her body and spread into the distance.

Xilin also tried to close her eyes and imitate Kiana's behavior, but unlike the previous times when she imitated Kiana very smoothly, she failed this time.

When Kiana used her power before, Sirin easily replicated the way Kiana used it. The reason was of course because Sirin was still a pure [Herser of the Void], unlike after landing on the moon, when she opened a bunch of messy skill trees and had a head full of fancy ideas.

Xilin, who only possesses the [Power of the Void], has perfect control over this power and can achieve it based on instinct.

Even her use of this power is better than Kiana's.

For example, the algorithm for Kiana to use her power needs to reach 10, and Kiana's algorithm is '5+5=10'.

When Xilin used it for the first time, it might be '1+1+1...=10' which required a more complicated simulation.

But when used for the second time, Kiana's '5+5=10' can be achieved.

The third use will allow it to be perfectly etched into the instinct, thus achieving '10=10'.

This may be the characteristic that Sirin possesses as a native and complete [Hersher of the Void], which even Kiana cannot achieve.

The difference may be the difference between Bronya and Walter Joyce that Kiana knows. Even though Bronya has even surpassed Walter Joyce in terms of the strength of her power, there is still a gap in some aspects.

"What kind of ability is this?" Xilin looked at Kiana in confusion.

"Okay, found it." Kiana opened her eyes again.

It was just as Kiana thought. Because of the [Second Sequence Great Collapse], everything on the Siberian snowfield was very different from what she remembered. No wonder she couldn't find the stores she remembered even after teleporting with Sirin everywhere.

"You won't lead the wrong way again this time, right?" Xilin asked with narrowed eyes.

"Don't worry, don't worry." Kiana waved her hand, and then opened the [Aperture of the Sub-Void] again to teleport.

The transfer ability of [Hersher of the Void] is the most basic, but it also has the most methods.

Kiana's transfer abilities include but are not limited to [Sub-Void Hole], [Teleportation], [Imaginary Transition]...

Among them, [Hole of Sub-Void] is Kiana's most commonly used transfer ability. Simply put, it connects the 'imaginary space' between two areas through the operation of 'imaginary space', thereby achieving the effect of transfer.

[Teleportation] is an ability used in combat. It is not only extremely fast but also has very small fluctuations. However, its disadvantage is that it requires higher control and consumes a lot of energy.

And [imaginary transition] is a way of corresponding to [quantum transition].

All in all, if you are not in a hurry, [Sub-Void Hole] is the best choice.

----

Xilin and Qiana each ordered a cake with a different flavor.

"Hmm~ This soft texture and rich chocolate are just amazing!" Kiana said happily, holding her cheeks.

Since logging into 'New Atla', Kiana has never eaten cake or anything like that again... After all, under the influence of the 'Stigmata Project', 99% of the people on Earth have disappeared and entered the 'dreamland' fabricated by the Stigmata space.

Although there were actually quite a few people on 'New Atla' who could make cakes, they were not allowed to cook cakes due to lack of supplies, time or other factors, so Kiana had not eaten cake for a long time.

"..." Xilin imitated Kiana, cut a small piece of cake with a fork and put it into her mouth.

Because they were cakes of different flavors, Sirin's feelings were completely different from Kiana's.

However, Xilin's limited knowledge base did not allow her to describe the taste.

"How is it? Great, right?" Kiana asked with a smile.

"Hmm..." Xilin's bangs covered her eyes, making it difficult for Kiana to see her expression.

However, Kiana knew very well how Sirin felt at the moment, so she was not in a hurry to talk to Sirin.

Kiana slowly cut off another piece of cake and put it into her mouth, then pushed the 'Black Forest Cherry Cake' in front of her in front of Xilin.

"Hmm?" Xilin raised her head and looked at Kiana with her watery eyes.

"Ah!" To be honest, at that moment Kiana felt like she was shot by an arrow.

Clara's crying will keep you awake at night, but Celine's tearful eyes will just make you salivate... ahem!

"Help me, Miss Kiana!"

'Leave Xilinlin!'

"Well, I have to eat the fresh cream cake and the Black Forest cherry cake. Only then can I be considered healthy." Kiana coughed lightly to dispel the projection of cosmic information that she had inexplicably received in her mind. At the same time, she silently recited "Mei Bing Xin Jue" in her heart to calm herself down.

That's Xilin!

Of course, it’s not that Xilin is not cute or anything else.

The most basic reason is...the relationship between Kiana herself and Sirin is unclear!

All in all, Silinda Baa!

"Hmm..." Xilin looked at the two cakes in front of her, pondered for a moment, and pushed the 'fresh cream cake' she had eaten before to Kiana. "You have to eat the fresh cream cake and the Black Forest Cherry Cake, so that you can be considered healthy."

Xilin repeated Kiana's words very seriously.

"Puff! I fell to the ground, seriously injured!"

Whoever said that tsundere people should retire from the environment, please stand up and apologize to me!

A.12 is a rich loli!

"What are you looking at!?" Silin shouted angrily when she noticed that Kiana's eyes seemed to have changed in a way she didn't understand.

"Shh! Don't shout in other people's stores." Kiana quickly gestured to Xilin to speak more quietly.

Xilin turned her head and found someone looking at them.

"Hmph, why should I care about what these ants think?" Xilin snorted and curled her lips but still restrained herself a lot.

"Well, that's what I said, but Sirin, have you ever thought about what to do next?" Kiana cut a piece of cream cake and put it in her mouth. "If we really become enemies with human civilization, then wouldn't it be very boring?"

"Or do you think, Xilin, that life without water and electricity would be comfortable?"

"There is no difference." When Xilin lived with her mother as a child, her family was relatively poor and could only maintain daily expenses. Entertainment was difficult.

There is even less entertainment after entering the 'Babylon Laboratory'.

So Xilin didn't care.

As the poem goes, 'I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light'.

Xilin had never seen a truly prosperous society, so she naturally had no yearning for it.

"Uh... that's a really inappropriate example." Although Kiana does have memories of her time as Sirin, many of Sirin's memories have been forgotten or distorted to a certain extent by the Honkai, so Kiana has even less memory.

"Okay, even though you, Xilin, don't care much about it, but I do." Kiana simply took the responsibility on herself.

"Tsk." Xilin just made a disdainful sound, but didn't say anything else.

This is the case with Xilin. Because of her previous experience, Xilin is unwilling to show obvious concern for others.
