Firefly, I want to be a Sanyo Hermit

...

......

"Xilin, isn't it a bad idea to eat potato chips right after getting out of bed?" Kiana looked at Xilin's fixed refresh point, her eyes fell on Xilin who was holding potato chips and jelly, and said.

"It's okay." Xilin pinched out a piece of potato chips and handed it to Kiana.

"Indeed." Kiana nodded and took the potato chips and put them in her mouth. "Speaking of which, how does it feel to wait for breakfast? It should be a rare experience for you, Xilin?"

"...Not bad." Xilin looked at Kiana and said after a moment of silence.

Although Xilin did get up late every day, she could basically have her meal as soon as she came to the living room.

But she would wait for Kiana to come back every day to have lunch and dinner together.

Therefore, Xilin had already forgotten about the idea of ​​'waiting for dinner'.

"Xilin, please help me tear a jelly." Looking at the jelly on the other side of Xilin, Kiana made her request to Xilin.

"Tear it yourself." Xilin picked up a jelly and threw it to Kiana.

"Tsk, so stingy." Kiana pouted. After a moment, Kiana looked at the plastic ring in her hand and pursed her lips. "Who designed this jelly film? It's disgusting."

In Kiana's opinion, things like jelly wrap, can pull rings, etc. are quite inhumane because they are too easy to tear.

"It's useless." Xilin shook her head helplessly, and then a small [Sub-Void Hole] appeared in front of Kiana.

Xilin's hand stretched out from the [Aerial Hole], and a torn jelly was placed in her hand.

"Give me the one that's not torn yet." Although there was less than two steps between them, Xilin used her power.

"Okay." Kiana put the torn jelly in Xilin's hand and happily squeezed the jelly that Xilin tore into her mouth. "So, isn't this good?"

Although there were some slight changes in today's daily routine, it was not much different from usual. She and Xilin have always gotten along like this.

"I'm the only one who's confused." Kiana thought while chewing the jelly in her mouth.

After all, Xilin was talking about fantasy yesterday, which made her feel confused for a long time.

"That's it, just pretend that I don't know what happened." Kiana thought with a guilty conscience.

Anyway, she didn't plan to build a relationship in "this world", so she didn't really let Xilin down... probably.

"This guy..." Silin glanced in the direction of Kiana. "Is he distancing himself from me..."

When it comes to the person she likes, even if it's Xilin, her mind will become extremely delicate.

On weekdays, Kiana would call herself the slightly weird 'Silinlin'.

According to Kiana, this name is more intimate, but until now, she has always called herself 'Sirin'.

'What happened...Why is Kiana like this today...' Xilin thought with some discomfort in her heart.

B.91 has been modified. If you see the wrong chapter, click '...' in the upper right corner to refresh the chapter!

I accidentally posted Xinjiang's chapter here before, I'm really sorry!

(However, three chapters were updated today! So don’t worry about small things like posting the wrong chapter~)

B.92 I won't be back for lunch today

Kiana, totally unaware that her attitude towards Sirin had become a little distant today, continued to get along with Sirin 'as usual'.

"Come to think of it, I might not be back for lunch today." Because Mei Raiden awakened to become the Herrscher of Lightning nearly four months earlier than in the 'original world', Kiana understood that her plans in this world could no longer be made according to the time of the 'original world'.

And... unlike the existence of the [Hershers Gem], there is no gem in this world, so the Herrscher that is born will not be a semi-finished product like in the 'original world'.

Therefore, Kiana is also worried whether the [Fourth Sequence Great Collapse] will take place at the same time as the 'Original World'. For this reason, she must speed up the development of the [Anti-Hollow Damage Drug 2.0] series.

After all...the subsequent Herrschers of the 'original world' were born almost one year in succession, and the strength of Honkai energy would increase exponentially.

Perhaps [Anti-Honkai Vaccine 1.0] will not be able to withstand the erosion of Honkai energy when the subsequent Herrscher is born.

So no matter what, the speed of drug research and development must be accelerated.

The faster the pace of drug research and development, the more people will have stronger adaptability and resistance to Honkai energy, and such "popularization" will further liberate Honkai and accelerate the birth of Herrscher.

This is an 'unsolvable' cycle unless you transcend the [Cocoon of the End]...but now is not the time.

"The next Herrscher is the Wind Herrscher... Although it was Wendy in the 'original world', the Wendy in this world would not conduct those experiments, and without the appearance of the Herrscher Gem... it is impossible to determine who the next Herrscher will be." Kiana secretly calculated what would happen next.

The Herrscher's body cannot be determined, and the location of the Honkai outbreak cannot be determined either, so Kiana cannot take the lead in popularizing the vaccine like she did in 'Changkong City', but must popularize the vaccine globally. Only in this way can we protect ourselves from the Honkai energy erosion caused by the next [Sequence Honkai] outbreak to the greatest extent.

"Well, the deployment of the teleportation device must also be accelerated." Ever since Kiana discovered that teleportation on Earth consumes several times more Houkai energy than outside the atmosphere, Kiana and Otto have planned the deployment of the 'teleportation gate' together.

In the 'original world', there is a teleportation device between the Earth and the Moon, which can teleport people from the Moon to the Earth in a moment.

So Kiana now has to deploy teleportation devices all over the world.

Only in this way can she deal with the Herrscher who will appear as soon as possible.

'This time, Mei's metamorphosis was completed after absorbing the egg containing Gara, but... I'm not sure what the next Herrscher will be like.'

"Ah... Why do I have so many things to do?" Kiana, who had just gotten up, looked a little tired.

"Aren't you coming back at noon?" Upon hearing the news, Xilin raised her head and looked towards Kiana.

"Well, the workload has been quite heavy recently." Kiana nodded.

After all, there are only about four years left until the arrival of [The End], and the birth of the Herrscher will be accelerated, and the strength of the Herrscher will be stronger than that of the 'original world', so Qiyana cannot relax.

"Yeah." Xilin pursed her lips slightly. "Got it."

Xilin responded and said nothing more.

"?" Although she felt that Xilin's eyes just now seemed a bit sharp, Kiana didn't know why, so she could only purse her lips in boredom.

"Strange, why is the atmosphere so tense today?" Mei Raiden, who had just finished her daily 'swordsmanship homework', chewed a small piece of sausage, looked at Kiana in confusion, then looked at Sirin.

"What are your preferences, Mei?" Bella asked, which eased the atmosphere at the table. "Oh, I mean the taste of food."

"Me? I don't have any particular preferences." Mei Raiden smiled and shook her head. "The food cooked by Miss Bella is very delicious. Although I have tried to learn cooking skills for a few years, there is still a huge gap compared to Miss Bella."

"You're too kind." Bella's mouth curled up slightly, and she humbly accepted Raiden Mei's compliment.

After all, the time Bella spent learning cooking was almost equal to her life. If her skills were not good enough... then she would have let down the rationality and wisdom given to her by the Queen.

...

......

"Your Majesty, they have all left." Bella reminded softly as she looked at Xilin who was still sitting at the dining table but had already finished the food on her plate.

Kiana went to work, while Mei Raiden and Garo went to school.

"I know." With the sound of the chair being dragged, Xilin jumped down from the chair.

"Your Majesty...what happened?" Bella asked Xilin with some confusion.

Obviously, she has been with Xilin almost all the time from yesterday till now.

Kiana doesn't have much time to be alone with Sirin, and Sirin's personality makes it impossible for her to confess to Kiana.

So...Bella couldn't understand why the relationship between Xilin and Qiana became so stiff overnight.

Yes... Whether it was because of the confusion or some other reason, it seemed that only Kiana thought that the atmosphere between her and Sirin had not changed at all.

But both Bella and Raiden Mei noticed the stiffness between Kiana and Sirin.

It is normal for Jialuo to not understand the ways of the world because she was born not long ago.

And Sirin...she was the first person to feel Kiana's attitude.

"Nothing." Xilin replied coldly. "I'll go upstairs."

As she spoke, Xilin walked towards the stairs.

"Queen..." Bella shouted worriedly as her eyes followed Xilin's figure.

"Okay, Bella." Xilin held the handrail of the stairs with one hand, turned her head slightly and looked at Bella. Her golden eyes revealed a feeling that Bella felt 'strange'. "There's nothing more to say."

"..." Bella's pupils trembled slightly as she stared at Xilin's figure slowly disappearing at the end of the stairs.

"What on earth... just happened..." Bella murmured softly.

Bella had seen that look before, more than a decade ago.

And that day, the Queen attacked Lady Kiana, and Lady Kiana swung a sword that was powerful enough to burn the sky.

Since that day, such a look has never appeared again...

The look in Xilin's eyes... is just like...

Like a hermit.

B.93 The Girl in the Dream

"Why, Kiana..." After returning to the room, Xilin curled up in the chair as usual, watching the anime playing on the computer screen.

But Xilin's mind was not on the computer at all.

Her mind kept replaying the scenes from yesterday evening to today.

The dreams of a Herrscher are not vague, so Xilin knew very well what she dreamed about when she fell asleep yesterday evening.

She also felt it when Kiana pushed her body, but she couldn't wake up for a while.

Therefore, she clearly remembered what she said in the gap between dream and reality.

"Even if you don't want to respond to me, can't you just pretend you didn't hear it?" Xilin didn't understand why Kiana wanted to distance herself.

Even if she pretended not to hear it, she could keep this feeling forever.

She and Kiana are already a "family", so she doesn't have to worry about being "abandoned" by Kiana, because she knows very well how much Kiana values ​​"family".

With Raiden Mei's reminder, Xilin finally understood what she had wanted from the very beginning.

Not a 'lover', but a 'family'...

The so-called desire to develop a 'lover' relationship with Kiana is just Sirin's greed. It is acceptable even if it does not develop into such a relationship.

Because 'family' is close enough, and 'family with a romantic relationship' is a further relationship, Xilin doesn't care that much.

But Kiana did not choose to "pretend not to hear", but chose to "quietly distance herself".

"If I'm not sharp enough... No..." Xilin bit her lip. "I... don't want such sharpness..."

If she had been more insensitive, she wouldn't have noticed Kiana's estrangement...

In that way, their relationship gradually became commonplace and gradually alienated, until in the end she might not care about Kiana anymore...

If that were the case, she might not be feeling so bad now...

"I hate... this feeling..."

Xilin reached out and clicked the pause button, pausing the slightly sharp sound of boiling water in the headphones.

"It's so annoying." The sound of the anime made Xilin a little irritated, so she closed the webpage, then walked to the bed and threw herself on it, casually covering herself with the quilt that had not been folded.

...

......

"Your Majesty..." After cleaning the living room, Bella put down the rag in her hand and looked towards the stairs to the second floor with some concern.

There was nothing over there, but as Sirin's companion Honkai beast, Bella was connected to Sirin's "soul", and she could clearly feel Sirin's emotions.

That irritable mood made Bella vaguely feel anxious.

'What on earth happened...' Bella didn't understand. Why did everything change so drastically in just one night and she didn't know anything?
