I am the savior, but I am being asked by Alicia and the others to pay me back.

Kiana comforted:

"I will treasure the time I spent here in the past in my heart and will never stop moving forward."

Although Bronya was pleased with Kiana's transformation, she began to wonder:

"In that case, why did you suddenly think of coming back here to take a look today?"

"I do not know either."

Kiana shook her head and answered very frankly:

"Since this morning, I have had an inexplicable thought that I should come back today. Otherwise, I would miss something."

It is now night time, the evening light is gradually fading away, and the dark night covers every corner of Saint Freya.

Because the street lights were abandoned, everything around was dark at a glance. Even if there were people there, it would be difficult to catch a glimpse of each other's figure.

"But there's no one here," Bronya reminded.

"Well, maybe that's just my intuition. Don't take it too seriously."

The evening breeze blew through Kiana's long hair, and the cool feeling made her stretch.

"This time we're just here to check out the area. Next time, let's have a party together in Saint Freya, how about that?"

"This is a rare good idea of ​​yours." Bronya nodded.

"If the principal is not busy, be sure to call her as well."

Kiana said expectantly:

"We can also let Youlan Dai'er and the others come and experience it... Oh, and Ye Ming too."

When this name was mentioned, Kiana's joy became much more restrained.

"I don't know when he will be back. I still have a lot to say to him."

Kiana looked at Saint Freya, who was full of memories, her eyes filled with longing.

"I wonder if Ye Ming will think of our past when he sees this scene."

And just then, Kiana suddenly felt something appear from the shadows in the distance and disappear around the corner of the dormitory corridor.

"What's wrong?" Bronya asked.

"It seemed like someone just now..."

Kiana looked carefully in that direction, but found only a few red leaves blown by the evening breeze.

"No, it must be my illusion."

············

At the same time, Ye Ming also came to the dormitory building of Saint Freya.

Even though I haven't been here for a long time, the road under my feet is still very familiar.

Soon, he found the place where he used to live with Mei Himeko and the others.

"It seems that no one has lived here since we left."

The spacious room was empty at this moment, the lights could not be turned on, the water and electricity were not connected, and it looked very dim.

——Can I help you with the lighting?

"No, I'm familiar with this place."

Ye Ming opened the door of his room, and everything seemed beautiful as if it were yesterday.

He could even see the afterimage of himself playing with Kiana and the others in the past.

"Ok?"

But just when Ye Ming was about to leave, he suddenly heard some noise in the distance.

"Just now...was there someone talking there?"

But soon, Ye Ming heard the sound of the evening breeze whistling in his ears again.

He thought, “Maybe it’s just the wind.”

After saying this, Ye Ming left Saint Freya through the back door.

At that time, he just happened to miss Kiana who was walking through the main entrance.

The two people were standing back to back, and at their closest point were less than a hundred meters apart, enough to fit in one camera.

But under the cover of night, the two people, separated by the Saint Freya Courtyard, were ultimately unable to meet.

[Look back! Kiana! Ye Ming, the person you miss the most, is right behind you.]

[No, can this video be voice-controlled? Please! ]

[There are so many street lights in Saint Freya, why is there no electricity at the critical moment?]

[If Ye Ming turns on the light in the room, will Kiana be able to see him?]

518. Then never let her know

"Principal, is there any news from Ye Ming?"

The next morning, Kiana came to Theresa's office.

Every once in a while, she would inquire about Ye Ming's whereabouts like she was doing now.

"No news."

Theresa told Kiana the false news according to the agreement with Ye Ming, and added:

"From now on, you may have to prepare yourself for not hearing from him for a long time."

Theresa's voice was very desolate. She had never told such a sad lie.

"There is no news in the search for Ye Ming?"

"Well, even worse than that."

Theresa didn't explain much, but just by looking at her expression, Kiana could understand how pessimistic the situation was.

"I understand. Please help me pay more attention in the future. Thank you, Principal."

After preparing for the worst, Kiana left.

"..."

Watching her receding figure, Theresa couldn't help but let out a long sigh. The scene of her discussion with Ye Ming yesterday came to her mind again.

···········

"Please keep the fact that I'm back hidden and don't tell anyone."

Hearing Ye Ming's request, Theresa asked back:

"But since you don't have much time left, shouldn't you go say goodbye to Kiana and the others?"

Ye Ming shook his head: "If I go to meet her, Kiana will definitely reject my plan and try every means to keep me alive."

His voice became deeper and deeper: "But you and I both know that this cannot be done. On the contrary, it will waste the last chance."

After that, Ye Ming leaned close to Theresa's ear and whispered the dangerous plan.

"I hope you can gather the crowd, the more the better, and withdraw the local Valkyries. At the same time, let Anti-Entropy stay put and only send Kiana."

"I will be there, disguised as a Herrscher, and then be defeated by Kiana in front of everyone."

Theresa understood that Ye Ming wanted Kiana to become a hero and wash away the impact of the Herrscher of the Sky incident, but she still found it difficult to accept such a plan.

They said it was a salute to the birth of a hero...but to Kiana herself, it was even crueler than a death knell.

"If Kiana knew the truth..."

"Then never let her know."

Ye Ming directly interrupted Theresa's consideration and gave a simple and crude countermeasure.

"But what happens next?" Theresa asked. "If Kiana asks again, how should I answer?"

After all, after that, there will never be a chance to meet again.

"They said there was no news about me, and that I might have died in a distant place."

"..."

"I understand. I'll try to help you."

···········

After recalling the past, Theresa leaned her head against the back of the bench and twisted it back and forth, but she couldn't calm down.

"Being the only person who knows the secret is also very painful."

Theresa felt a headache when she thought about seeing Kiana often asking about Ye Ming in the future.

"The principal."

Just when Theresa was worried, Fu Hua suddenly came over.

"what happened?"

"There is something strange about my Yuduchen. It is being pulled by a certain force."

Fu Hua explained:

"In fact, it's not that I want to disturb you, but Yu Duchen is moving uncontrollably in this direction."

"Yu Duchen?" Theresa seemed to have thought of something. "So this is your plan?"

"Principal, do you know anything?" Fu Hua asked.

"I...I don't know how to say it..."

Before Theresa could organize her words, the Yu Du Chen in Fu Hua's hand emitted a dazzling cherry-red light.

Then, Yu Duchen broke free from her hands, floated in the air, and then, as if summoned, quickly flew out of the sight of Fu Hua and the others.

"This... what on earth is this..."

Fu Hua was feeling puzzled, but she suddenly remembered that Yu Duchen had also had an experience of being out of control before.

"Could it be... Ye Ming?"

"Put this matter aside for now, I have something else to do."

Theresa knew that Ye Ming had already started his plan, and now she should race against time and fully cooperate with him.

·············

Thanks to Theresa's arrangement, this most prosperous city was filled with people that night.

All the Valkyries in the vicinity were replaced and replaced by Kiana who was patrolling the area.

"it's time."

Standing on the top of a tall building, Ye Ming looked at the bustling streets and silently activated all of Yu Duchen's strength.

In an instant, cherry-red feathers fell among the crowd like rain.

Gradually, the light in people's eyes began to dim, and their behavior began to become dull.

From now on, all they can see is what Ye Ming wants them to see.

"What's wrong with me?"

At the same time, Kiana was also affected. She only felt that her consciousness was a little fuzzy after that moment, but it was not serious.

"Then, what is that?!"

"Hey! There seems to be something in the sky?"

Suddenly, the crowd began to make noise, and everyone's eyes were focused on the night sky.

"A person? Can that person fly?"

"It doesn't feel right. Why are there lightning and thunder around her?"

“Wow! Was there an earthquake?!”

Just as everyone began to be surprised at Ye Ming floating in the air, the ground suddenly began to shake violently with a false sound.
