Just like a feather gently falling on her heart, Theresa suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, the person who took Kiana away was Fu Hua, whom she had arranged to protect her!

But... why? When did this happen? Why did Fu Hua cooperate with the Shanyiat family? I have also investigated her background, there should be no problem...

As it concerns Kiana's safety, any possibility should not be missed. Theresa immediately called Ji Zi: "Ji Zi, have you seen Fu Hua today?"

"Fuhua? No, what's wrong, Theresa?"

Theresa took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Qiana may have been taken back to the Tianming headquarters by Fu Hua. I mean, it's possible, but I'm still not sure. Jizi, please help me find someone first."

Ji Zi on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment and then said, "I see, Fu Hua is never late. I just arrived at the office now, and I will go to the classroom to look for her later... Hmm?"

"What's wrong, Himeko?"

"Is this... Fu Hua's application for leave of absence? The one next to it is Kiana's application for leave of absence? The words on it all look like Fu Hua's, and it looks like it was prepared a long time ago." Ji Zi's tone was full of surprise, "Principal, this..."

Theresa closed her eyes somewhat weakly and said, "It seems that Fu Hua did take Kiana away..."

It's just that Fu Hua's meticulous character is really a bit... She didn't even forget to submit her application for leave of absence after taking Kiana away...

Theresa just didn't understand why Fu Hua wanted to help the Shanyati family take Kiana away, and what purpose the Shanyati family wanted to achieve with the help of Kiana?

You can't say... that he is really going to resurrect the legendary Lucifer, right?

Just as Theresa was about to contact the Sentence Headquarters to question them on the grounds of "taking away students from St. Freya Academy without permission", the door of the principal's office was pushed open again.

"Angelia?" Theresa raised her eyes and looked at the person who came.

Angelica just looked at Theresa and said calmly, "It seems that the principal has been very busy these days."

"What do you want?" Theresa asked.

"Kiana was taken back to the Destiny headquarters last night, so my mission here is almost over." Angelia said, "From now on, I will no longer be a student of Saint Freya, and I will also return to the Destiny headquarters."

"What on earth do you want to do with Kiana?!" Theresa couldn't help but ask angrily, "Why did you pay so much attention to Kiana after you learned of her existence? After the Fourth Herrscher incident, you even instigated Fu Hua to help you take Kiana away?!"

Is it possible... that Lady Fu Hua doesn't need us to instigate rebellion at all?

Angelica thought so, and then remembered the instructions given to her by Bishop Otto, and said: "This is our Shanyat family's own business. Moreover, whether she is Kiana or not, don't you know it in your heart, Principal?"

"you……"

"The headquarters will not blame Saint Freya for detaining the Desire Gem without authorization, but in exchange, Saint Freya should not pursue what happened to Kiana, or K423, after they were brought back to the headquarters." Angelica said, "This matter itself has little to do with Saint Freya, right?"

"She is my niece, how can she be considered..."

"In terms of bloodline and generation, Maria and I can both be considered Kiana's aunts." Angelica said coldly, "Besides, she is not the Kiana you know, but a clone, numbered K423."

Theresa gritted her teeth and looked at Angelica without saying anything.

Angelica saw Theresa fell silent, so she didn't want to continue the conversation and turned to leave. Suddenly Theresa said from behind her: "You... want her to be the medium for Lucifer Shaniate's resurrection?"

Angelica was stopped in her tracks by Theresa's words. If it was Ivar here, with his years of experience and qualities, Ivar would not show too much abnormality, but Angelica was different. She was the same age as Kiana, and she acted indifferent only because she didn't care about many things. Theresa's words really surprised her.

She turned around, and her cold eyes fell on Theresa like a knife: "How... did you know this?"

When she stopped, she realized that she had been exposed. Regardless of whether Theresa was testing her or not, her actions were enough to make Theresa believe her inference, no matter why Theresa came to that conclusion.

Now that it has been exposed, there is no point in covering it up anymore. Rather than trying to hide the truth, Angelica wants to know how Theresa knew the news, or why she made such an inference. This is related to the Shanyiat family's thousand-year-old wish, so it is never too careful.

Who leaked the news?

"In order to revive an illusory person...are you going to go to this extent?" As Angelica thought, Theresa could tell from Angelica's reaction that the news that made her feel unbelievable was true.

The Shaniyat family...want to resurrect their ancestor, Lucifer Shaniyat.

Before she finished speaking, Theresa clearly felt the strong murderous intent erupting from Angelica. She stared at Theresa and said, "Illusive? Only people like you would think that the ancestor is just a legend! He does exist, and he has always been with our Shanyat family!"

Theresa had no intention of backing down, but said in the same cold tone: "Then how do you know that the one you want to awaken is Lucifer Shaniat himself?"

"You, an outsider, don't need to question this, Theresa Apokalis." Angelica said, "You should understand that fighting the Honkai is never that simple. Only the return of the ancestors can guide mankind to completely defeat the Honkai! And the price we have to pay now is just an insignificant replica. Theresa Apokalis, you should put aside those insignificant feelings and seriously consider the future of mankind!"

After Angelica finished speaking, she paused and said, "This is the long-cherished wish of the Shanyati family that has lasted for thousands of years. I don't care where you got it from, but as long as you dare to stop us, even if you have a good relationship with Sister Cecilia, even if you are the granddaughter recognized by the bishop, you will be the enemy of the Shanyati family!"

After saying that, Angelica left without looking back.

She had already realized that Theresa would never tell her where she got the information from, but this did not stop her from warning Theresa. Angelica also had some guesses in her heart about the person who provided the information.

Most likely it is reverse entropy.

Not many members of the Shanyiat family knew about this plan, and each of them was a core member. The probability of a traitor in the Shanyiat family was almost zero. Although Bishop Otto was an outsider, he also knew about this plan and had been cooperating with the Shanyiat family. Otto knew the importance of this plan to the Shanyiat family better than anyone else, so it should not be Otto.

After much thought, it seems that Siegfried, who defected and is now in Anti-Entropy, might know something.

After Angelica left, Theresa sat in her chair, folded her hands and rested her chin on them, lost in thought.

The Shanniyat family’s long-cherished wish has lasted for thousands of years… So how much preparation has the Shanniyat family made for this plan over these thousands of years?

Lucifer Shaniat, the legendary hero...

Thinking from a rational perspective, Theresa had to admit that it was difficult for her to oppose the Shanyat family's plan, because she had personally experienced the Second Great Collapse and clearly realized the insignificance of mankind in the face of the Collapse. The power of the Second Herrscher was still fresh in Theresa's memory today.

Lucifer is a legendary hero. As a hero, he is definitely a powerful helper for mankind's fight against the collapse, but...

Theresa thought again of the clones of Cecilia she found under St. Freya's Cathedral, and how the Shanyat family had almost frantically opposed Siegfried and Cecilia being together. During that time, even her grandfather was rumored to step down as bishop, just because he gave Siegfried a glimmer of hope.

Considering the information I know now, the Shaniyat family might have been planning to use Cecilia as the medium for Lucifer's resurrection, but something unexpected happened later so they had to give up and turn their attention to Cecilia's daughter...

Theresa clenched her teeth. Even though the current Kiana was just a clone numbered k423 in the Shaniyat family, she still treated her as her own niece.

But why did all this have to happen to her? Why her?

However, Theresa was very clear about the consequences of being an enemy of the Shanyatid family. The retaliation that Anti-Entropy had suffered from the Shanyatid family over the years had never been limited to any means. Theresa had also heard about the incident at the orphanage in Cocolia, as well as those Anti-Entropy undercovers caught by the Shanyatid family...

It would be fine if Theresa was alone, but she was worried about the students of St. Freya behind her. She was worried that the Shanyiat family would take action against them if their plan was hindered. This was not impossible.

"Cecilia, if it were you...what would you do..." Theresa murmured.

Chapter 38: Meet Again

Destiny Airport, Helheim Laboratory.

Kiana sat on a chair, silently looking at the blond man in front of her. The other man greeted her with a smile: "Hello, I think in your memory, this should be the first time we have met so closely, Kiana Kaslana."

"Bishop Otto." Kiana said, "I think... you should be very clear about who I am."

"Who are you..." Otto touched his chin pretending to think, "Let me think, Kiana Kaslana, Kiana Kaslana's replica k423, the Herrscher core carrier of the Herrscher of the Void, and the vessel of Lucifer Shaniate?"

"It's just that the last identity is meaningful to you and the Shaniyat family, right?" Kiana said, "If you came here to dissuade me from running away, then I will tell you, my answer is..."

Otto made a pause gesture and said, "You are very smart, at least much smarter than what Tianming's previous observations showed. But before you give me an answer, I think I need to tell you something."

Kiana looked at Otto and indicated that she was listening.

"The original owner of your name, the real Kiana Kaslana, is still alive and in this Destiny Airport." Otto smiled and observed Kiana's reaction. As he expected, Kiana, who had not shown much emotional fluctuation after being brought back to Destiny Airport, finally showed a change in expression at this moment.

How to describe her emotions at this moment? Surprise, joy, guilt...

Otto had to admit that no matter how critically he looked at the girl in front of him, he never saw any negative emotions in her eyes. She was sincerely glad that the real Kiana Kaslana was still alive.

But it is precisely because of this that the subsequent events will be better controlled in his hands.

"Where is she?" Kiana asked.

"You will meet soon, I mean, after I finish talking to you." Otto folded his hands on his crossed legs and said with a smile, "But before you meet, I have to tell you the truth about why I created you in the first place."

Seeing that Kiana's expression became unresponsive again, Otto continued, "At the beginning, the person who was considered qualified to be Lucifer's vessel was Cecilia Shaniyate, but later it was discovered that she still had flaws as a vessel, and her daughter Kiana optimized those flaws. You are so smart, you should understand what I mean, right?"

"If I don't become the container, she will be the container, right?" Kiana said.

"Correct answer." Otto clapped his hands and said, "By the way, based on the recent observations of you and Kiana, Lucifer's revival is in the near future."

Kiana was silent for a while before she said, "I understand. But just like what you said when I was interrupted at the beginning, I never thought of leaving since I was brought here."

"You didn't plan to leave, but it would be troublesome if someone wanted to take you away." Otto stood up and said, "Well, our conversation should almost end here. I believe you are a smart child, so I will not restrict your activities in the Fate Airport. Of course, the necessary daily monitoring is indispensable. Other than that, everything is up to you. The rest of the time will be left to you and the real Kiana."

Kiana slowly closed her hands on her legs. Finally... was she going to meet the real Kiana Kaslana? Although she didn't know how she could survive after falling from thousands of meters in the air, she had never heard any news about her during her time. What kind of life did she lead in the Sky Harbor?

With a nervous mood, Kiana waited for the next visitor. When she saw the other person's face clearly, she subconsciously said in surprise: "You...Lord Youlandel?"

What's going on? Is the most powerful S-class Valkyrie, Yulandel, the real Kiana? Wait, if that's the case...

She suddenly remembered that a guy who was currently offline once said that she could just call her sister. In other words, he actually knew about this a long time ago, right?

That's right, because he is Lucifer himself. Perhaps when the real Kiana fell from a height of thousands of meters, it was he who protected her.

Apart from this, Kiana couldn't think of any other possibilities.

"Qiana..." Yulandel frowned as if she was a little unhappy, and said, "I told you before that you can just call me Yulandel or Bianca. There's no need to be so restrained."

Being called by her real name like this, Kiana felt very complicated at the moment. She looked at Yulandel, trying to see something from her eyes, but she gave up in the end and changed the topic and asked, "Well...Okay, Yulandel, is your hair color like this naturally?"

Yulandel was stunned, and she also began to think, wondering if Kiana knew something, and said: "In my memory, my hair color has always been like this. I seem to have suffered an accident when I was a child, and I have no memory before the age of eight. For me, eight years old is the starting point of my life. The name Bianca is also a name I chose for myself."

I have no memory before the age of eight...

Yulandel's original intention was that no matter whether Kiana knew some of the things that happened in the past, she said this to imply that Kiana didn't need to care about these things, but for Kiana, it only deepened her inner guilt.

"Is that so..." Kiana lowered her eyes, "Come to think of it, Yulandel, why did you come here to see me?"

"I got the news the moment you arrived at the Destiny Airport." Youlandel smiled helplessly and said, "But... at that time I didn't expect that you were the carrier of the second Herrscher's Core. This time it was because the Herrscher Core showed signs of being out of control that Senior Fu Hua brought it back to the Destiny Airport. Not long ago, I got the bishop's approval to come and meet you."

So she didn't know? Well, if she didn't know, that would be the best case scenario...

"Yeah, I didn't expect that either. But since the core is showing signs of being out of control, of course staying in the laboratory at Destiny Airport is the safest measure." Kiana said, "It's really a pity. I remember you said before that the Immortal Blade would always keep a place for me as long as I came to Destiny Airport... Now that I'm here, I'm afraid I can't join the Immortal Blade."

"What are you talking about?" Yulandel said, "There are only signs that the Herrscher Core is out of control. With the current technology of Destiny, it won't be too difficult to stabilize the Herrscher Core. Moreover, I heard from Rita that the reason why your Herrscher Core was out of control this time was because you fought too much with the Fourth Herrscher who held the Gem of Desire. As long as you rest here for a while, you can still continue to fight as a Valkyrie."

That’s true, but whether you are still yourself at that time is another matter.

Did Feng know this? He should know something, but Kiana didn't hate Feng because she knew that Feng could temporarily control his body. In other words, Feng could have had countless opportunities to return to Tianming Airport directly, but he chose to hide it from her and accompanied her as a guardian for all these years.

"By the way, Kiana, I asked the bishop before coming here. You just can't leave the Destiny Airport, but you can still move freely within the scope of the Destiny Airport." Yulandel continued, "You probably haven't been to the Destiny Airport, right? It happens that I have time recently, so I can take you here to have a look."

Rita outside the door: Huh? Isn't Lady Yulandel going to defeat the Honkai Beast later? This...

It seems that Lady Yulandel changed the schedule temporarily for Miss Kiana. It would be great if their identities were not so complicated... Never mind. As an excellent maid, changing the schedule according to Lady Yulandel's ideas is also a compulsory course.

the other side.

"Is it really not necessary to restrain her movements?" Leopold, the head of the Shanyat family, looked at Otto and said, "In this situation, there can be no mistakes. Moreover, in this situation, how can we guarantee that she will not try to escape?"

"Heh..." Otto glanced at Leopold and said calmly, "Don't worry, she won't run away. She is more noble than any of you have imagined. Precisely because she is such a person, there is no need to restrict her. Even if Anti-Entropy attacks her, she will not go with Anti-Entropy."

Leopold was silent.

"You should have seen Bianca's attitude towards her, right? From what I know about Bianca, even if she recalls her past memories, her attitude towards Kiana, ah, should I say K423, will not change at all." Otto said lightly, "Of course, if you want to try, you can go and explain things to Bianca during this time, change her name to Kiana and officially let her join Shaniate."

"If you agree, Bishop, that would be great." Leopold turned his gaze towards the room where the two girls were talking. "You don't have to tell me. I also know the child's attitude towards K423. When I first took her to see K423, I knew her thoughts from her eyes... That's why we can't let her have too much contact with K423. She has suffered enough. If she develops too deep a relationship with K423, when they say goodbye... I'm afraid she will be overwhelmed by the sadness..."

Otto glanced at Leopold, then looked away. "It's said that White Flower has richer emotions than Black Abyss, and is more likely to get stuck in a dead end... You have proven this to me generation after generation over the past five hundred years... Anyway, during this time, it's up to you how you want to explain the whole story to Bianca. I won't stop you."

"Thank you, Bishop."

After Leopold left, Otto stood alone for a while before he used the communication device to ask another laboratory for the result: "Have the observation results of the Thousand Worlds One come out?... Well, we still don't see a future where Kallen survives... It's not surprising. Then what about the other thing I mentioned? Have you found the same or similar situation in other world bubbles?"

The other end of the communicator gave a negative answer without hesitation.

Otto was silent for a moment, then said, "Keep observing and make sure to find a bubble where Kallen can survive."

St. Freya Academy.

"What? Principal, are you going to approve Kiana's leave of absence just like that?" Mei said in disbelief, "Shouldn't we try to find a way to bring Kiana back?"

"I'm sorry, Mei, but I have to consider the safety of all the teachers and students of Saint Freya." Theresa sighed and said, "Kiana is too important to the Shanyatid family. If we bring back Kiana who has been taken away, we will be making an enemy of the Shanyatid family, and Saint Freya cannot bear the consequences of making an enemy of the Shanyatid family."

Jizi said: "But, Principal, if this is the case, the number of members of the fifth team..."

"Wendy will take Kiana's place," Theresa said. "According to the medical room, the power of the Desire Gem has repaired Wendy's legs and is currently in a stable condition within her body. Wendy has also expressed her willingness to fight as a Valkyrie once again."

Mei wanted to say something else, but when she saw Theresa's expression, she knew that Theresa had made a decision. Even though Theresa herself was unwilling to make this decision, she just knew that she had no way to influence Theresa to change this decision.

Shaniyat family...

After leaving the principal's office, Mei felt a little dazed. Even though today was the day she had regular contact with her father, she was still a little absent-minded.

"Mei, your tone, does it mean something happened?"

Mei pursed her lips, and finally asked with difficulty: "Father...what should I do..."

Half an hour later, Theresa received a call from Anti-Entropy. As soon as she connected the communication device, Siegfried's voice came: "Theresa, Kiana was taken away by the Shanyat family?! Why didn't you stop them? And why didn't you tell us about this?"

Theresa took away the communication device and waited until there was no sound inside before she spoke calmly, "Tell you? What's the point of telling you? Will telling you make the Shanyat family send Kiana back? Siegfried, this matter is no longer something Saint Freya can afford to interfere with."

"……What's the meaning?"

"As you guessed, the Shanyatid family has admitted to me that their purpose is to welcome the resurrection of Lucifer. Anyone who stands in their way is an enemy of the Shanyatid family. Saint Freya does not have the size of Anti-Entropy to compete with the entire Shanyatid family." Theresa said.
