K424 of the Collapse World

"bomb."

"No."

"Pass."

"..."

The game was resumed after a brief break, and Yae Sakura quickly got involved again. On the side, after seeing Yae Sakura's soft and flexible long pink ears, Bronya's eyes suddenly lit up and she began to get excited.

(Those ears... look exactly like Hom's! I really want to pinch them...)

For some unknown reason, she couldn't help but walk forward and came to Yaesakura's chair.

"Um, Sister Yaesakura, please... Bronya, can I touch your ears?"

“Hey~! Sister Bronya, forget it… Sister Miyuki has become like that, please stop causing trouble for her…”

Xier stopped him somewhat embarrassedly, and secretly glanced at the black-haired girl who was squatting in the corner with her ears drooped and shivering, and couldn't help feeling guilty.

Following Seele's gaze, Bronya looked at Asakura Miyuki who was covering her tail and sobbing. After a moment's hesitation, she looked away guiltily, and the next moment she returned to her expressionless look and spread out her hands.

"That's not Bronya's fault. It's obviously because Miyuki-nee-san got too into the role. Cat-eared girls get shy when their ears are touched. That's only in comics. How could it be so exaggerated in real life? Besides, Bronya has touched real kittens before, and she has never seen them have any extreme reactions..."

"But......"

"Having said that, Miyuki-nee is really cute. And Seele, weren't you enjoying the touch just now?"

Xier was suddenly speechless, lowered her head with a red face, and no longer stopped the gray-haired girl beside her.

"A pair of ticks... huh? Sorry, what did you just say?"

Hearing the voices of the two girls beside her, Yae Sakura turned around again and saw Bronya, who was lying on the armrest of her chair, tilting her head up at a 45-degree angle, with her big watery eyes open, looking at her with an extremely cute expression...

"Um, Sister Yaesakura's ears are so beautiful, Bronya, can I touch them?"

Hearing the girl's modest request, Yae Sakura's two poker friends also stopped and looked at Yae Sakura and Bronya with interest. Unlike Benares, who was not familiar with Bronya, Mei had known this indifferent gray-haired girl for a long time. But now, Bronya's impression in her mind was refreshed again...

"Well... okay, no problem. But I hope you can be as gentle as possible..."

After a brief hesitation, Yaesakura nodded in agreement, but before she could finish her words, the ear on top of her head was grabbed by the excited gray-haired girl.

"--babble!!"

·————————————·

"It's rare. Bronya is unexpectedly bold today. Wait, did someone give her alcohol?"

"Don't worry, Lillian. Alcoholic beverages are only available at Tesla's table. Others only have drinks. However, you are becoming more and more like a teacher now... As a captain, I am very pleased, Lord Jiuxiao~"

"Don't forget that you are also a B-rank Valkyrie, Master Jiuxiao. Have you completed your usual training seriously?"

"What a joke! Master Jiuxiao is naturally proficient in all weapons. Does he still need to train? As long as I improve the strength of my stigmata, it will be no problem for me to become an A-rank Valkyrie!"

"Don't get carried away. Weapon proficiency and actual combat experience are two different things. If you don't work harder, you may have to return to the academy to study again..."

......

"Dr. Einstein...Excuse me, have we met before?"

"Oh? Are you trying to flirt with me, Miss Fu Hua?"

When the girls around them started playing cards and chatting in groups of two or three, the two who had always been free finally came together. However, the atmosphere became a little awkward when Fu Hua, who was always simple and serious, was with Einstein, who was also serious but a little humorous.

.

"No, I just had a strange feeling of déjà vu... Anyway, don't worry about it. I made a mistake, Doctor."

"That's it..."

Seizing this rare opportunity, everyone spent the party in their own way. Although Theresa and Jizi had already boarded the aircraft back to Saint Freya, they were destined to miss the party after a few hours of flight...

"I say, Cecilia...is that really okay?"

At the table, Siegfried glanced at the three people playing cards not far away, hesitated for a moment, then leaned over and whispered in Shirley's ear.

"What do you mean? Also, please try not to call me by that name..."

Shirley asked softly. The drunk red-haired girl was still hanging on her body, and the hot air mixed with the smell of alcohol kept blowing on her neck and ears, which greatly reduced her perception. In addition, she was busy processing a crab and did not notice Siegfried's overly intimate behavior.

This ambiguous scene caused the surrounding girls to whisper, but since Shirley's other identity was not a secret, the girls who knew about it had a tacit understanding of what to do, and no one spoke out to disturb the nominal "couple."

Luckily Tesla was already very drunk, otherwise he wouldn't have let Siegfried get so close to him...

"The girl over there should be Benares... It's a Judgment-level Honkai beast that caused serious damage to the world during the Second Honkai. It's extremely threatening. Is it really okay to just leave it here?"

"Bella has been in St. Freya for nearly half a year, most of the time without my supervision, so there won't be any problems. Also, please be careful with your wording, Mr. Siegfried. How can you call my partner 'it'?"

With a light snort, Shirley turned her head and was startled when she saw Siegfried's big face so close to her, and she quickly stepped back.

"What are you doing? You're so close to me... Siegfried, do you still have any thoughts about me? Think about it, even if you think of me as Cecilia, my body is still the same as Kiana's. If you don't want your daughter to think you're a pervert, you'd better put away some of your thoughts as soon as possible..."

Said with some displeasure, Shirley looked at the empty bottles piled in front of Siegfried and frowned slightly.

(Have I drunk so much without realizing it? It seems like a long time has passed since Siegfried arrived. Why haven’t those two girls come back yet?)

At this moment, a sudden movement interrupted her thoughts. Tesla, who was still hugging her neck, suddenly raised his head and came close to her with a dazed look.

406 The two finally returned>>

"Hey~! Shiris! You...hiccup~ You drank so much, why aren't you drunk at all?!"

"How can the constitution of a Honkai creature be affected by alcohol? How do you feel now? You are already so drunk, do you want to go back and rest first?"

"I'm not drunk!"

Pushing Shirley's hand away, Tesla's body swayed and he fell on the table like a mollusk.

"How cunning... Shiris! You hid everything from me before, and now you're even cheating when drinking?! Are you getting too arrogant? Don't forget who turned you from a second-level cripple into a Herrscher!"

"Frei, you're drunk... My experiences during my time at the Destiny Organization have been classified as top secret by the Destiny Headquarters. Disclosing them at will would be a breach of contract..."

"Huh? The Destiny Organization is our Anti-Entropy's enemy! You...are you saying you have betrayed them? Answer me, Shiris!"

"..."

With a wry smile, he looked at the unyielding red-haired girl. The cheerful atmosphere froze in Tesla's shouting. Shirley looked at the glances from others, and couldn't help but sighed that one wave of trouble had not yet subsided, and then he exhaled and slowed down his voice a little.

"Don't say that... Fulei, I swear, I have never done anything to let down Anti-Entropy and the Far East Branch..."

"You don't need to swear! I believe you... But why did you hide your decision from us? Do you want to do it alone again? Aren't we friends? Why don't you share the responsibility with everyone? Shilis... What do you think of me?"

As he spoke, tears began to flow. With Tesla's crying voice, the atmosphere at the scene changed instantly. The voices of the girls gradually became smaller, and they all looked towards Tesla. For a moment, Hillis didn't know how to respond. Looking at the red-haired girl sobbing on the table, she felt for the first time whether her decision was really wrong...

Although the others didn't say anything, they must have been concerned about this matter. After the battle with Chiyou, he disappeared without a word for two weeks. How many people did he make worried about him?

"Dr. Tesla is drunk. Let me take her back first."

When Hillis was at a loss, Einstein suddenly stood up and came to Tesla, whose breathing was getting heavier.

"Aiyin..."

"That's it... It's not good to let her continue to embarrass herself here. She has such a bad drinking habit, and she dared to drink so much... Don't worry, I will be back after I settle her down."

Einstein said calmly, without mentioning the topic Tesla had just raised. Silis was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Thank you, Ain."

"You're welcome. I know you have your reasons."

Einstein slid the terminal and directly dequantized a poisonous spider mecha in the room. In the flashing arc of light, a small blue-black mechanical body emerged. This mecha with a spider-like appearance is very small and has no impact on its activities even indoors. Just thinking of the function of this mecha, Shilis couldn't help but twitch her lips...

"Don't worry, I'm just looking for a tool to carry it. I've disabled its self-destruct module, so it won't accidentally blow up the room."

After placing the conscious red-haired girl directly on the top of the Poison Spider Mech, Einstein waved goodbye and walked out of the restaurant with the Poison Spider Mech carrying Tesla, controlling the mech as others stared in amazement.

"They actually put people on suicide weapons to carry them... Are those two doctors really good friends?"

"Ah ha ha......"

Hearing Siegfried's complaints, Shirley smiled helplessly and then stood up.

"Sorry, everyone... It's a pity that Dr. Tesla left, but it doesn't matter. Just continue as you did just now..."

Although she said this, seeing the girls looking worried, Shirley felt a little depressed. Suddenly, the atmosphere became depressing...

However, the depression did not last long, and things took a turn for the better.

——Boom boom!

A knock on the door came clearly into the quiet room. The next moment, without waiting for Shirley and others to respond, the visitor took the initiative to push open the door.

"Hi~ Sorry for being late. I heard Mei is also... What's going on? What's with the tense atmosphere? Did something happen?"

The silver-haired girl with two pigtails skipped into the room, raised her hand to say hello, and was about to say something when she was startled by the silent gazes of everyone at the table, and her expression became a little awkward.

"Okay, don't be shy, come in quickly!"

"Um... um, excuse me for disturbing you..."

Then, with a tiny, weak voice, another silver-haired girl with rosy cheeks leaned out from behind the door frame and walked into the room shyly, looking extremely reserved.

"Kia...na?"

The corners of Shirley's mouth twitched. She looked at the silver-haired girl who was holding the door frame with a nervous look on her face, and then looked at the cheerful girl with pigtails next to her. Even with such a discerning eye, she couldn't tell which one was the real Kiana for a moment!

(This...! What's going on? Did the two of them... switch bodies?!)

Judging from the fluctuations of Honkai energy, the girl standing behind was undoubtedly the familiar Makiana, but Shiris didn't remember that girl showing such a shy expression in front of other people...

And logically, since it was Kiana who persuaded K423 who was stuck in a dead end, K423 should have let go and showed this shy look of wanting to accept but not wanting, and then was half-forced by Kiana to come to the party, but what is going on now? The persuader actually shut himself in, while the one who was persuaded looked like nothing had happened, and even looked more cheerful than usual...

Like Shirley, Siegfried was also stunned at the two silver-haired girls at the door. He could easily identify Kiana and K423 by the difference in clothes and hairstyle. However, the behavior of these two girls was completely opposite to what he expected! He couldn't understand why Kiana, who was well-behaved when talking to him, suddenly became so shy after finding K423 and coming back together...

The others also looked at the two people at the door with confusion, and they also noticed the same problem. Lillian looked at Kiana, whose behavior was very different from before, and couldn't help but speak first.

"Kiana... and Miss, may I ask what happened? Why did it..."

“Woo…!”

Before she finished her question, the girl who looked like Kiana let out a weak cry, and her cheeks turned red in an instant, almost smoking.

As Kiana remained silent, the silver-haired girl next to her scratched the back of her head and a slightly strange expression appeared on her face.

"Hey, about this..."

Chapter recommendation, "How did I become the protagonist as the head maid Rita?", a rare Honkai fanfiction with Rita as the protagonist,

It seems pretty good, if you are interested, you can take a look. However, the number of words is a bit small at present, so you can consider saving it and fattening it up for slaughter (*?ω?)ノ

407 Final Settlement

"Actually... that's it. Thanks to Kiana-nee's comfort, I was able to cheer myself up again... Hey, and then, to thank her, I gave her a little..."

Finally, after the girl's hesitant explanation, Shirley finally figured out what had happened. While feeling helpless, she also had some emotion about the traditions of the Kaslana family.

As for the yuri attribute, it can be traced back to the Middle Ages where Kallen Kaslana lived. However, the situation this time is a little different. Although according to the girl, it was just a small kiss, but in the final analysis, the relationship between Kiana and the girl is really complicated...

"That's too much...! No normal person would express gratitude in this way! Even if you are close to someone, a kiss on the cheek is enough, but you...!"

Kiana said with shame and anger, the blush on her face still not faded. After calming down a little, she was now sitting in the seat before Tesla, just snuggling up to Shirley, ignoring Siegfried beside her, and looking angrily at the girl with a smirk on her face not far away.

"Oh, don't worry about it... We are all girls, and a kiss like this won't make you pregnant. Although you look exactly like me, you are really cute when you are shy~ Sister Kiana..."

The card game was interrupted again. The silver-haired girl found a chair and sat down between Mei and Yae Sakura's seats. After fully demonstrating her natural talent and affinity for making friends, she easily integrated into the party with the help of Mei's relationship.

"How dare you say that...! Ugh~ That's mine..."

"It's okay. Don't look at me like this. That was actually my first kiss. Let's just consider it even~"

The girl said nonchalantly, looking around at the stunned others, and stuck out her tongue in a playful manner. But seeing Kiana still looking ashamed and indignant, she still lowered her head and smiled with some apology.

"And, that's it, you held me so gently in your arms, and gently touched my head... To be honest, no beautiful girl has ever done this to me, so for a moment, I couldn't help but... But don't worry, I will never do anything to you! Because the only person I like the most is Mei-senpai~"

At this point, she suddenly hugged Meiyi beside her, not caring about the eyes of everyone, and gently rubbed the girl's cheek in her arms. The latter did not expect the girl to do such a thing, and her face was instantly covered with red.

"Hey! Chia... Anyway, stop it now, and please don't say such misleading things in public!"

Mei was wondering what was going on with the two silver-haired girls, when she was suddenly hugged by "Kiana" beside her. She didn't know how to address them for a moment. However, it was obvious that the silver-haired girl beside her was the "Kiana" she was familiar with!

"Excuse me, what exactly is this...?"

Mei cast a puzzled look at Shiris who was sitting not far away. Just as she was about to ask something, she was interrupted by the voice of the silver-haired girl next to her.

"Eh~~? What's the matter? If we confirm our relationship sooner, wouldn't it make Miss Kiana feel at ease sooner? After all, I wouldn't do something as excessive as stealing someone else's love..."

"So, after what you did to my sister, you're planning to abandon her now, Miss 423?"
