Honkai Impact, starting by entering Kallen's body

Besides having high talent, having a powerful background is even more important for someone to be able to join the Valkyrie Squad.

She was no exception; from a young age, she was taught to have a natural sense of superiority.

"By what right? I act strictly according to the Valkyrie Code. You have no right to punish me. If you insist on being as stubborn and making your own judgment, then I will report the facts to Destiny and have them strip you of your position as captain of the Valkyrie Squad!"

The burning sensation on her cheeks made her feel ashamed and angry.

They not only lost their lives, but she also lost her noble dignity!

On the other hand, the captain of the second squad had long desired to be the captain of the Valkyrie Squad, but was only in a lower position because his strength and background were not as good as Kallen's.

But that doesn't mean Karen can sit comfortably in that awe-inspiring position forever.

Even though Kallen comes from one of the three noble families: Kaslana.

But now Apocalypse is only the head of the three great families. It's a pity that Kaslana lost in the power struggle. Kaslana is not just a fool with power.

They possess superhuman strength, yet lack the wisdom to match it.

Responsibility? Commitment? Protecting the people is useful, but can they rally Kaslana to turn the tide?

If other nobles show even the slightest favor to some lowly commoners, they will forget who truly cares about them. If they are given greater benefits, they might even turn their swords against their benefactors.

"You may try, but this is my last time. Get out."

"As the captain of the Valkyrie Squad, I hereby strip you of your Valkyrie identity."

"Tsk, you're just a bully! Who do you think you are? A knight from a fallen family has the right to act so arrogantly, but you have no right to strip me of my Valkyrie status!"

Karen clenched her fists and glared fiercely at the other person.

The Valkyrie Squad is strictly forbidden from fighting each other, and even more so from engaging in combat with their own teammates. This is an ironclad rule.

The other party's arrogance stemmed from her precise timing; moreover, she had a powerful background, unlike Kaslana, being from a thriving noble family.

Although not as significant as Kaslana, she should not be underestimated.

She had not violated any regulations, and Karen's report was to no avail.

In reality, laws and rules are man-made; they do not represent justice or rule.

"You want to hit me?" Seeing Karen hesitate, the other party continued to be aggressive.

Su Xin: What do you mean? I've decided that if she does it again, I'll beat her so badly that her relatives and friends won't recognize her.

Oh, at least she's good-looking enough to be a woman, how could you be so cruel as to destroy her?

Su Xin: Ha, I dare to kill even the End, do you think there are any women in the world more beautiful than the End?

I was just kidding. Aren't you worried about trouble afterward? Like, Schicksal could use this as a pretext to further weaken the Kaslana family, or even annex them. Or perhaps remove Kallen from her position as captain of the Valkyrie Squad?

Su Xin: Are you kidding me? Not to mention that I alone could dominate the whole of Europe right now.

With the Eastern Expedition of Heaven's Mandate imminent, those old fogies couldn't wait to make the Kaslana family temporarily stronger and have Kallen lead the Heaven's Mandate army to attack the Ming Empire.

At this critical juncture, they dared not remove Kallen's identity as the captain of the Valkyrie Squad.

If Karen doesn't go on the eastern expedition, who will? This piece of trash could kill her hundreds of times over with a single punch?

Those old fogies are shrewd; they only care whether Karen has the courage to do what the dead should do.

Before Su Xin could finish speaking, "Karen" punched the other person in the stomach, sending him flying through the wall behind him like a cannonball. He instantly lost consciousness, foaming at the mouth and falling into a coma.

Su Xin: It seems I don't need to lift a finger. Karen has changed a lot. If it were the original story, she would probably just swallow her anger.

"The Valkyrie Code demands strict obedience to management. Lesson learned!"

Karen couldn't think of any other reason, so she just made up a clumsy excuse.

If she could, she would kill her, but she couldn't.

Karen knew that the Valkyrie troops had all gotten in through connections, and that they not only lacked the strength to protect the people, but were also like parasites, corrupting the Valkyrie's reputation.

They used the Valkyrie's fame and honor to generate more profits for their family.

As for those who truly protect things, very few do so; they only want to protect their own interests.

But in reality, Karen couldn't change anything; she couldn't even decide on the prosperity of her family.

"Aisha, handle it." Karen turned around, her expression nonchalant.

"Hmm, Captain, what about her? Does she really have to be stripped of her Valkyrie status?" Aisha asked hesitantly.

"No, she deserves to be punished. Go and complete the formalities. I will bear all the consequences."

After finishing, Kallen left the Valkyrie unit and went to a place where she would get angry every time she went there.

Apart from a few exceptionally talented Valkyries who earned their positions through hard work, the rest are all connected through connections, and she has to handle everything personally, big or small.

Even the lowest-ranking assassins had to accompany her in battle. Karen's life was like a tightly wound spring, constantly on the go and always busy.

Upon returning home, Karen first went to check on her father, Francis.

She gently pushed open the door, and dust rushed out from the cracks. The room was completely dark, but clean and tidy overall.

The servants in the house respected Francis, a hero who had fought for the people all his life and was now in his twilight years.

Francis lay quietly in bed, and if it weren't for the faint sound of his breathing, Karen might have thought her father was already dead.

"Grandpa Arthur, how is Father doing?" Karen asked, as she looked after Francis Arthur.

Arthur shook his head in frustration: "I'm sorry, Miss, the patriarch's body has suffered severe damage and erosion. The aftereffects of the Heavenly Judgment from the battle three years ago are too great. It's a miracle he's still alive."

Karen remained silent.

Heavenly Judgment, a weapon that sacrifices life for power.

It burns not only the enemy, but also itself.

On that day, during the Honkai Beast tide, Francis fully unleashed the Judgment of Heavenly Fire, annihilating all the Honkai Beasts with a single sword strike, but also burning rapidly in the blazing flames.

If it weren't for that strange occurrence, Francis would probably have turned into a pile of charred remains.

Even in the bleak summer, the city is covered in frost and snow as if it were the dead of winter.

Chapter 32 Super-Rank No-Chant Water Magic

"Miss, the Shaniat family wants to acquire Kaslana's shipping business in Vienna Harbor at an extremely low price."

"Refuse."

“But the family doesn’t have that much money. Many servants and direct Kaslana haven’t received their salaries for two months. They certainly believe in and are loyal to Kaslana, but we…”

"The castle lord held a meeting with the other nobles, and since that night, Kaslana Enterprises has been losing money. Most of its original clients and large orders have been snatched away by other nobles. The few remaining orders are just a drop in the bucket."

"In fact, the vast majority of our profits come from your friend Otto Apocalypse, but recently Apocalypse has started restricting his spending. I'm afraid we'll be forced to shut down more than 80% of our businesses this month."

Karen's head was throbbing with bad news from Arthur.

She's good at fighting Honkai Beasts and Zombies, but when it comes to business matters, she really doesn't know how to handle them.

But these matters concern the survival of the family, so she must devote a lot of energy and time to deliberation and consideration.

However, due to the Valkyrie Squad, Schicksal always assigns her extremely tight schedules and tasks, leaving her no time to deal with family matters.

Damn it

Arthur hesitated for a long time, and the room fell into a long silence.

But ultimately, a decision needs to be made on these matters.

Arthur paused, then said helplessly, "If we agree to Shaniat's offer to buy our company at a low price, we can at least hold on for another half month. I know this is a short-sighted solution, but if we continue like this, we won't even be able to pay for the medical expenses of our family members who are injured."

Arthur's voice was heavy; he knew some trivial matters that were causing Karen, a 16-year-old who had never ventured into these areas, trouble.

In fact, Karen had no choice at all, because the root cause of this situation was simply that Kaslana was different from other nobles.

Francis was experienced and had been classmates with the lord of the castle and Nicholas, the head of the Apocalypse family; the three knew each other well.

Therefore, Francis was able to make decisions that hindered the other two people.

But Karen was different; she was a blank sheet of paper with only words on it, and that was her mission.

She was baffled by the politicians' schemes and didn't understand how to break the deadlock.

Karen, naive to the ways of the world, is like an ancient person venturing into modern life, completely ignorant of all new things.

"Grandpa Arthur, I'll give you an answer tomorrow." Karen's voice was weak. She walked to Francis's side, glanced at him, and then left without saying a word.

Seeing Karen's lonely figure, Arthur understood that Karen was now filled with more self-blame.

I blame myself for letting my family become what it is now, and I blame myself for being incompetent.

Karen, exhausted in body and soul, hid in the warm pool, burying half her head in the water, with only her rosy nose showing.

Her bright blue eyes, sparkling like countless stars, still held a hint of moisture, though not quite as dim as they had been in her childhood.

Her skin was as white as jade without any flaws, and her slender fingers were as smooth and supple as water.

The mist rising from the pool is like a dreamlike lullaby, relaxing nerves that have been tense for days and calming restless hearts.

Her delicate, white hands untied her braids, and her long, flowing hair cascaded into the water, partially obscuring her fair skin.

Karen slowly wiped her body; bathing was one of the few times she could calm down.

Apart from that, I'm busy most of the time.

After a while, the temperature in the bathroom caused Karen's cheeks to faintly blush like the sunset glow. Karen lay in the pool and gently closed her eyes.

Consciousness gradually faded until finally falling into a deep sleep.

The next moment, she suddenly opened her eyes, her bright golden pupils shining, reflecting the bright firelight in the corner of the wall.

"Mmm! Finally, it's shower time again." Su Xin stretched.

After a year of integration, Karen can now transmit all her senses to her body in a synchronized manner.

I was truly exhausted, especially after practicing the Taixu Sword Qi all night, then rushing to explore the ruins, outwitting and outmaneuvering the artificial intelligence, and then rushing back to deal with the beast tide without even a short rest.

Not only did Karen feel tired, but Su Xin was also very exhausted.

"Hiss, I feel a slight chill."

Su Xin sat down, but felt a little uncomfortable stretching while standing.

When they were young, there was not much difference between genders; Kaslana girls were stronger than ordinary boys.

However, at 16 years old, Karen's body was nearing maturity, and she felt an inexplicable weight and obstacle during each battle, which made Su Xin both amused and exasperated.

Chi Yuan is physically strong and can exercise just like a man.

Karen's physical body is too sinful, well, literally.

"I'm so tired. Although I don't feel mentally exhausted, my body is really tired. Is there a simple way to quickly relieve fatigue?"

Currently, there is no simple, effective, and recurring method for humans to quickly eliminate fatigue.

The conditions aren't right now, at least not.

Su Xin was initially just casual, but upon hearing the system's words, a peculiar idea suddenly flashed into her mind.

"No, no, I think so, it's just that the casting time is quite long."

The system was stunned. Was there a casting time?

Specifically? Call them by name.

"A super-tier, chant-free water magic spell," Su Xin said calmly.

He then put his hand into the water.

After a long period of spellcasting

A tingling sensation swept through my entire body in an instant.

"No, I am worthy of it."

"How about this? It's simple, effective, and recyclable, stimulating adrenaline secretion to bring the body and mind to a peak, counteracting fatigue. What do you think?"

You're different. I remember when you were dating Alicia, you were shy and reserved, and you even thought that kissing her meant you had to be responsible for her for the rest of your life.

Su Xin was silent for a moment, her voice slightly hoarse: "Back then, I was naive and simple, and I thought feelings were such a simple thing."

"If you like someone, you should be loyal to them; a man should be responsible and have a sense of duty."

"I took her gentleness and smile as proof of my love, and I gave everything I had to reciprocate her feelings."

But she betrayed you.
