Collapse, I save everything alone

Earlier, at St. Freya Academy, in the principal's office.

Theresa sat at her desk, with her hands on the table, and finished reading the mission report on the incident in Singapore.

What concerned her was Siegfried's appearance.

"Siegfried...why is he in Singapore?"

And the Serenity Gem was also stolen - this is a big event. Otto has ordered all branches to search carefully within their own territories for clues about the Serenity Gem.

However, Theresa was not particularly concerned about the gems. Rather than finding the whereabouts of the gems, she cared more about the two Valkyries who had just been sent back not long ago.

"Fu Hua was injured like that. Siegfried is just that. He didn't know how hard he would hit her."

Theresa said with some complaints.

She would visit Fu Hua and Qiana whenever she had time, but she always felt that this was not enough.

After all, Fu Hua is a very outstanding Valkyrie in the academy, and Kiana is her good niece. As the academy principal and aunt, it seems that she should do something else besides visiting them frequently.

For example... when they recover from their injuries and are discharged from the hospital, hold a celebration event in the dormitory?

If you want to celebrate, you need to prepare things like balloons and salutes.

Thinking of this, Theresa immediately opened the warehouse's material panel to see if there were any of these materials in the academy.

Unfortunately, St. Freya Academy, which is essentially a military school, naturally does not always have these things on hand, but the reserves of weapons and ammunition are quite sufficient.

"Hmm...should I ask someone to help with the shopping?"

Theresa muttered to herself as she opened the communication panel.

As usual, she would ask others to help with the preparations.

After all, she is the principal. Isn't it normal for her to order her students around?

The girl's eyes scanned the list and landed on Mingyu.

As the only male student in the academy, he was often conscripted by himself to do work.

Well... for example, cleaning my office or something like that, maybe I should just...

However, just when she was about to press the button to connect the call, she finally withdrew her hand.

The girl sighed and said to herself:

"Forget it, I'll go by myself this time."

As the oldest person in the school, she still has to do the work herself occasionally.

Well, I'll prepare the materials quietly and give them a surprise when the time comes!

Thinking of this, Theresa stood up.

She was about to set off, but when she looked at the nun's uniform on her body, she stopped.

This nun's uniform that she usually wears is not really suitable for going out outside of St. Freya Academy. The young girl (in appearance) paired with the unusual nun's uniform is really too eye-catching.

It would be better to change into some normal clothes before going out.

..............................

What does it feel like to be married?

No, no, what is it like taking wedding photos?

Mingyu didn't know it in the past, but he knows it now.

Surrounded by a group of beautiful women, Mingyu, who was originally wearing casual clothes, changed into a tuxedo suit.

Then, he came to the flowers surrounded by girls.

Only then did Mingyu realize how difficult it was to stay calm when surrounded by a group of people's gazes.

I always feel a little awkward and nervous...

I have never had this feeling before, even when facing the waves of Honkai beasts or the crisis of life and death.

"Mingyu-kun, please come closer to Miss Xier."

Under the photographer's guidance, he moved a little closer to the girl in front of him.

Even at this distance, the fragrance of a young girl has already wafted into my nose.

"Ms. Xi'er, please put your hands on Mingyu Jun's chest."

"Is...is that so?"

The girl followed the instructions and gently placed her two soft and boneless hands on Mingyu's body.

Even through a layer of white gauze half-finger gloves and a dress, one could still feel the careful and soft touch.

Click, click.

"Yes, yes, yes. Then, please, Mr. Mingyu, hold Miss Xier's waist."

Mingyu obediently stretched out his hand and prepared to hold the girl's slender waist.

When he felt the soft and fragrant girl in his arms, his heart suddenly skipped a beat and his hands also stopped.

The scent of the girl, the feeling of her petite body in his arms, made him hold his breath.

...That's not right. Why are you being so cowardly?

We have slept together before, so what's wrong with hugging each other?

With this in mind, he continued his actions and held the girl in his arms.

Another round of shooting from various angles.

"Okay, okay, very good. Now it's the last group's turn."

The last set of postures is for the man to hug the woman in a princess hug, with their foreheads touching each other, to show their close relationship.

"Woo..."

After imagining the next posture, Xier whimpered softly, perhaps because she was too nervous and shy.

Mingyu glanced at the excited crowd around him and asked in a low voice that only he and Xier could hear:

"Are you okay? If this is too much of a stretch..."

"It's okay. Xi'er has a way to hold on..."

The girl replied reluctantly.

However, she didn't dare to raise her head and look at Mingyu beside her.

…Is it really okay?

Looking at Xier like this, Mingyu always felt that she might faint in a few seconds.

In short, Mingyu hugged the girl's slender waist and picked her up by the waist in a princess hug.

"Okay, yes, that's it, Mingyu-kun, please hug me tighter, Miss Xier, please put your arms around Mingyu-kun's neck."

The photographer continued to direct from the side.

Xier did not do it in one step, but just stretched out her hands first and held his shoulders, pausing slightly at this step.

Suddenly, Mingyu felt the girl in his arms holding his hands much more tightly.

Sensing something, he lowered his head slightly and happened to meet a pair of eyes whose temperament had become completely different.

Obviously, a certain Xier has hidden inside the body and handed over consciousness to another will.

...So what you call the method is "selling yourself".

This temporary body exchange was obviously not discussed in advance. There was a hint of confusion, a hint of ignorance, and a hint of surprise in Hei Xi's eyes when he was suddenly pushed out.

After taking a few seconds to sort out the situation, she still followed the photographer's instructions and put her arms around Mingyu's neck.

However, from the back where no one else could see, she pinched Mingyu's back hard and said in a low and vicious voice:

"You, you, you are bullying Xier again!"

"To be honest, it was Xier who thought..."

Mingyu tried to explain.

Originally, it was Xier who couldn't walk after seeing the wedding dress, and he was just accompanying the girl to realize her little dream.

"I don't care, I blame you!"

Hei Xi certainly knew what Xier was thinking. She usually had nothing to do, but she was always spying on everything outside from within the girl's inner world.

But at this time, just blame the man in front of you!

"Okay, okay, just blame me, blame me."

Mingyu responded somewhat helplessly.

"Okay~ Next, please let Mingyu-kun and Miss Xier put their foreheads together~"

The photographer had no idea that Xier had become a completely different person. After finding the shooting angle, she directed the two of them to complete the last step of the styling.

Forehead to forehead?!

Hei Xi's expression froze visibly.

Such an action is too shameful.

——Although her personality is very different from Seele’s, they share the same body and their life experiences are exactly the same.

In other aspects except for temper, there is basically no difference between him and Xier.

To put it simply, it is just as simple.

But it was Xier's body after all, and she didn't want to expose her existence to ordinary people. At the moment, she could only follow the photographer's ideas and continue taking pictures.

This is the last group anyway...

So the girl angrily pressed her forehead against his.

Complain!

When we get back, I will make sure Xier complains to her elder sister!

Chapter 139 Chance Encounter

In the city near St. Freya Academy, Theresa appeared here staggeringly in a pleated dress and sports jacket.

She is no longer wearing the traditional black nun's uniform, but sports casual clothes, a shirt and a small skirt, and over-the-knee white stockings, making her look like a well-behaved and lovely girl next door.

The white-haired girl adjusted the dark green beret on her head and walked slowly on the busy street.

To be honest, it was probably because of her age. Although this city was near St. Freya's Academy, she had only been to this city a handful of times in the more than ten years since the academy was founded.

Except when she needs to go out on missions, most of the time, she stays in the academy and does not go out.

"Hmm... maybe I should take Kiana and the others out for a stroll more often in the future."

Theresa walked around and came to a bridal shop.

"Wedding dress... Well, come to think of it, the kids in the academy will also go through this stage in the future."

She has always advocated that the Valkyries of the Far East branch should be able to live a life like ordinary people, which naturally includes getting married and having children after adulthood.

Marriage is a very rare thing among Valkyries.

It’s not because of any weird reasons like sexual orientation, the reason is quite simple, that is - the low chance of survival.

Fighting against Honkai is ultimately a life-and-death war. Even with the assistance of artificial stigmata and weapons that come with their destiny, it is difficult for most Valkyries to live to retirement age.

In addition, the use of artificial stigmata will significantly shorten the lifespan of the Valkyries...the normal retirement age of the Valkyries is set between thirty and forty years old.

Most of the Valkyries who can live to this age will choose to get married and have children, and destiny will also provide them with considerable living subsidies and assistance.

The one Theresa knew was Lewis... After surviving the Second Honkai War, he chose to retire from Satori and has now established his own family. I heard that her daughter's name is Carol. I wonder if she will come to St. Freya's Academy to study in the future.

As for Theresa herself...

Well, she never went through the stage of looking forward to marriage.
