Star Railway, starting as Kiana

"Walter, should I still make a move?"

Walter was in his teacher's dormitory, looking at the images transmitted by the satellite he had hacked, and hearing the voice of his companion on the screen.

Walter fell silent for what seemed like the umpteenth time.

He rubbed his tightly furrowed brows, took off his earrings, and went to the window to look outside.

"Isn't it good enough?"

After hearing Walter Young's words, the other side fell silent.

At that moment, she thought to herself, "Oh no, is he going crazy because of too much pressure or burden?"

Otto, sitting in the Schicksal headquarters, was clutching his head tightly; if Amber hadn't been there, he would have banged his head against the wall.

"Ah!!! Theresa!!! My lovely granddaughter!!! Who did you inherit your intelligence from?! And why are you so good at sabotaging your teammates? Who taught you that?!"

Theresa: I didn't mess up my teammates, I didn't know anything, I'm just a Teriri who likes magical girls. Even if I did mess up, it was because I learned it from you!

Fortunately, after Theresa tricked their allies on both sides, the group successfully reached Wendy's location by following the signal source.

But when everyone was at the center of the signal source and saw Wendy sitting in a wheelchair, slowly turning the wheels with her hands and moving forward, they were all a little puzzled.

The most lively and active girl, who couldn't hide her thoughts, asked Himeko directly through the communicator:

"Aunt Himeko, didn't you say you were looking for something about a gem? Why is there only one person here?"

"Idiot, that's called the Gem of Desire. And during the mission, you have to call me Major!"

"Never mind, actually it's like this..."

Through Himeko's description, they learned about Wendy's situation, and also learned that this former A-rank Valkyrie of the Oceania branch, one of the S-rank Valkyrie candidates, was the recipient of the Gemstone.

The jewel she craved was now on her lap.

She was in a wheelchair because she was not fully capable of controlling the Gem of Desire and was instead corrupted, rendering her unable to move her legs. The once rising star had become a vessel to store the Gem of Desire.

After Himeko finished speaking, everyone's gaze fell on Bronya's legs, since Bronya's situation was somewhat similar to Wendy's.

However, I only glanced at it; after all, now is not the time to feel sorry for the two who are suffering the same fate.

The New Zealand region is still in the process of Honkai eruption, and there is always the possibility of an even stronger Honkai eruption. Even if it doesn't, leaving Wendy to face the danger of Honkai alone, even if she was once an A-rank Valkyrie, would be powerless to resist at this moment.

Kiana's priorities differed somewhat from the others.

"Speaking of which, Wendy wasn't wearing shoes, just these bandages wrapped around her feet. I wonder how often they're changed. In that case, is it a sterile, sealed, perfectly edible jade foot, or a super petri dish?"

As Kiana was thinking this, Little Ki, who was beside her, didn't pay attention to what she was thinking. She grabbed Kiana and rushed towards Wendy's direction.

"Sister, stop daydreaming, let's go! If any Honkai Beasts or zombies appear, Wendy will be in danger."

However, sometimes you really can't just say things carelessly, because often at crucial moments, a thoughtless remark can really come true.

They were met with the sudden appearance of several assassins wielding scythes, and a giant mosquito that seemed to have been hiding in a corner or had just appeared.

It is the infamous Mosquito-class Honkai Beast, Da Wu (crossed out, Rush-class Honkai Beast).

Although it is one of the smallest in size compared to other Honkai Beasts, and not very strong, it is extremely fast, which is a good thing about its small size.

Therefore, during each Honkai outbreak, the first thing to be eliminated is not the larger tank-class Honkai Beasts, but these. After all, nobody wants a mosquito to suddenly jump out from behind and bite them.

"Bronya!"

"Heavy-equipped Rabbit-19C, activate Annihilation Mode!"

Looking at the three girls in front of him, he launched a siege against the suddenly appearing assassins and Honkai Beasts around them, while also keeping an eye on Wendy out of the corner of his eye, worried that Wendy might be implicated.

Even Kiana, who criticizes Theresa for her silly and unreliable behavior, has to admit that only under Theresa's educational philosophy could students react in this way.

But since everyone else has taken action, it wouldn't be good if I didn't contribute as well.

With that in mind, Kiana decided to summon an S-rank Valkyrie to assist in the battle.

Although there are other ways, who can refuse a Judas who is almost omnipotent, capable of both offense and defense, serving as a personal warehouse, transportation, and chair?

Before Kiana could even wave to summon Judah, she heard Theresa's voice coming through the communication.

Kiana, you mustn't call Judah over!

"cut!"

"You clicked your tongue just now, didn't you! Didn't you! I heard you! I told you everything..."

Theresa wanted to say a few more words, but Kiana unilaterally cut off the communication.

"Okay, she already said that if I call Judas again, Theresa will probably really lose her temper."

While it's funny to see Theresa get angry, it's fine once or twice, but if it keeps going on like this, Theresa might stop talking to me. How am I supposed to have fun with the world's cutest Teriri then?

"How about we hack into Theresa's computer sometime and see if she has any data on her previous Magical Girl Special episodes? Or maybe we should hack into Otto's computer? He definitely has some saved up!"

Kiana snapped her fingers while silently cursing to herself.

Wendy had initially wondered which branch or headquarters had sent this Valkyrie, given how young she was.

Suddenly, her vision blurred. When she tried to sit up, she found herself out of the battlefield and standing next to a girl who wasn't wearing Valkyrie armor but instead a school uniform.

"Want to eat?"

Chapter 171 The Soft and Adorable Wendy

"Want to eat?"

Looking at the white-haired girl in front of her, Wendy felt a sudden light in her eyes for some reason, and even the gem of desire that had been constantly eroding her leg bone seemed to become a little more obedient.

"Thank you."

Although Wendy felt it wasn't right for her to just sit there eating popcorn while everyone else was still fighting, she didn't know why she couldn't refuse the request from the person in front of her.

Watching Wendy take the popcorn, Kiana asked again, "Want some cola, or juice?"

"No need, I need to control my figure."

"Oh, I see. There's water here, have some."

Looking at the popcorn and a bottle of water in her hand, Wendy fell silent.

This is definitely not from headquarters, after all, the headquarters team brings snacks and drinks when they come out.

"However, it seems not bad?"

Wendy felt that the atmosphere was quite comfortable, like friends going on a picnic together. There was no oppressive feeling of the impending collapse. On the contrary, it helped to relax her depressed mood after losing her ability to move.

Meanwhile, at the headquarters of Destiny and in the teachers' apartments of St. Freya Academy.

The two leaders of the organization remained silent as they watched the images transmitted from the satellite, the same question simultaneously arising in their minds.

"Strange, spatial abilities, is it a Stigmata? Or... if it's the second possibility, then what's the deal with K423?"

If, before, they had only guessed or heard about Kiana's abilities, but had never seen them in person, then this time, seeing Kiana take action and bring Wendy back to her side...

This further deepened the chain of suspicion in the minds of several people who tend to overthink.

As for Theresa, she still looked wise. Even though New Zealand was in complete chaos, she, as the head of the Far East branch, sat in her office, reading comics and drinking bitter melon juice.

"With Himeko there, and Kiana already there, they can handle anything as long as it's not a major collapse. Is it possible that a Herrscher will appear?"

I thought about the first and second Honkai Impacts, and then I thought about the timing of the third Honkai Impact.

The first Honkai Impact occurred in Berlin in 1952, the second in Siberia in 2000, and the third in Changkong City in 2014.

Although the timeframe is getting tighter, the last two incidents were entirely due to human intervention. Even if the collapses become faster and more frequent, it shouldn't have been reduced from several decades to just two years.

...

Kiana stayed by Wendy's side, chatting idly while watching the group fight.

I thought Wendy's personality would be strange, since I didn't have a deep impression of her at the time. I only remembered that she and Duck shared the same fate, and then Entropy interfered, causing Wendy to go berserk.

Then Wendy, like a pufferfish, started to swell up, looking like a giant pufferfish.

But Wendy, who was beside him, was like a little bird nestled in his arms, speaking softly and gently, with a voice that was as pleasant as a kitten tickling his heart.

And she's very gentle.

Even though the three of them had the upper hand on the battlefield, Wendy still looked at the battlefield with a worried expression, and she wouldn't look away even when she was chatting with herself.

"Strange, is this Wendy's personality?" Yes, she has a good personality, but she hates fate.

Watching the heavily armored bunny 19C wreak havoc on the battlefield, Kiana suspected that Bronya might have seen someone's shadow in Wendy, which was why she was going all out and worried about Wendy getting hurt.

As expected of you, the queen of picking up girls in the orphanage. You're timid and hesitant when facing exams, but when you meet a cute girl, you go all out.

Xiaoqi was just joking, but you're serious.

However, some of the assassins and the rush-class Honkai Beasts, although small in size and agile in movement, had low defense, so they were quickly annihilated by the combined efforts of the three.

When the group returned, they saw Kiana waving at them, beckoning them to come over.

"Bronya, quick, read what's written above! It's extremely urgent!"

Although Bronya had doubts about Kiana's request, she did not refuse.

Looking at the single character above, she didn't quite understand Kiana's meaning. She looked up, puzzled, and met Kiana's gaze.

"Just read them one by one. Here are pictures; click on one to go to the next one."

Bronya sensed something was wrong, but she still read it aloud, word by word.

“All the pretty girls in the orphanage are Bronya’s.”

"..."

All the pretty girls in the orphanage belong to Bronya.

Once the words were connected, Bronya immediately revealed her signature expression, staring at Kiana as if seeking an explanation.

"Okay, I've finished recording. I'll give it to her when Xier gets back!"

"Kiana, no!"

Bronya, no longer able to keep an eye on Kiana, hurriedly tried to stop Kiana's actions, but unfortunately, how could her speed match Kiana's speed in opening the Imaginary Space?

Bronya's hand froze in place, but she began to comfort herself.

"It's okay, Seele won't mind. I didn't do anything."

"Besides, if Seele really comes back, so what if Kiana teases her a few more times?"

However, when Xiaoqi saw Bronya's actions, she had a mischievous look on her face and went over to her.

"Hey! I didn't expect you, little dwarf, to be so..."

Seeing the cannon muzzle of the Heavy Bunny 19C pressed against her, Xiaoqi was forced to swallow the rest of her words.

He looked at Kiana with a pitiful expression.

"Waaah, sister, look at her! She's bullying me!"

"Okay, stop making trouble."

Seeing the warm interaction among them, even Wendy, who harbored resentment towards Fate and her teacher Theresa, couldn't help but smile knowingly.

"Wouldn't you look better if you smiled more? You have such a lovely voice and are so beautiful, yet you always have such a tense expression and look like you're worrying all the time. Come on, smile!"

Feeling her face being pinched and Kiana's fingers forcing her to raise the corners of her mouth, Wendy felt that the person in front of her was quite interesting.

But am I really that good-looking? Is my voice really that nice?

Was my face tense the whole time?

Thinking of this, Wendy forced a smile.

Seeing Wendy's cooperation, Kiana released her sinful hand and nodded in satisfaction.

The other three looked at each other, exchanged glances, and then reached a consensus.

"Kiana is at it again. Sigh, another victim is coming."

Chapter 172 Stop being as naughty as your sister, come back soon! (Bonus chapter recommended)

To prevent more victims from appearing, and also to prevent another roommate from joining the dorm, Xiaoqi disregarded everything else and quickly stepped between the two, asking Wendy:

"By the way, how's the Oceania branch going? Wendy, why aren't you at the branch? Where are your teammates?"

Wendy: ...

Everyone: ...
