Collapse, but the original god starts

Mei quickly followed with a knife in her arms.

However, when she reached the place where Kiana was abandoned, Himeko did not find Kiana.

"If it's not here... then it can only be there..."

She wasn't surprised at all, sighed, and walked in the other direction.

Crossing the street corner, you can see a white-haired girl standing silently by a pit, holding an exquisitely designed pot in her hands.

She stared at the big pit in front of her, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Um, Kiana, right? Theresa told me your information. Ah, Theresa is your aunt. Now we can get on the spaceship."

Jizi asked Kiana to leave with her first, trying not to mention that person.

"..."

Kiana naturally didn't respond, and didn't even look back.

She didn't know Mei was already here.

The first meeting of the three great families... was so silent.

What? Where's Bronya? In the pot.

"Um...I'm sorry...it's all my fault..."

Mei knew the time when she saw the pit, and she knew that it might be better for her to hide at this time.

But she couldn't do it.

"It's all your fault?"

Hearing Mei's voice, Kiana finally reacted and turned to look at Mei.

Looking at Mei, who lowered her head and exuded an apologetic aura, she slowly shook her head.

"No...it's not your fault. She's not you..."

She said blankly while holding the last things left by Ying.

"It's not your fault! It's all because... I was late. If I had arrived earlier..."

Now that it has been brought up, Ji Zi can no longer avoid this question. She watched Ying disappear in front of her.

If she had arrived earlier, perhaps everything would have been different.

"It's not your fault... Even if you were here, there's nothing you can do..."

Kiana denied Ji Zi. She knew very well that even if the armored rescue worker was there at that time, there would be nothing he could do.

"It's all my fault...it's all my fault!"

It was as if the emotions that had been suppressed to the extreme suddenly burst out, and Kiana said loudly in a collapsed voice.

"If I hadn't been so willful as to let Ying come with me!"

She could have gone off on her own!

"If I hadn't been hoping for luck!"

She always holds the idea that Ying's strength is still there!

"If... I hadn't fallen..."

She…can’t even run cleanly!

But there is no if.

As if she had lost all her strength, Kiana knelt on the ground dejectedly.

"No, it's not your fault. After all, you can't predict everything..."

Jizi raised her hand and wanted to touch Kiana's head, but she was not very familiar with her, so she put her hand down and comforted her.

"It's not my fault, it's not your fault, and it's not her fault..."

Kiana's emotions seemed to be ignited, and she exploded and spoke in a crying voice.

"We didn't do anything wrong! Is it Ying's fault? If we didn't do anything wrong... then why did things turn out like this... why!?"

The afternoon sun is so warm, it's a great day that makes people want to slack off.

But now Kiana actually hopes... for rain.

The sun cannot warm her, but the rain... can wash away all traces and wash away her sadness.

"Alas... bring her back. I will be responsible for comforting her."

Theresa sighed and looked at the outside world of Changkong City projected by Ai-chan.

The lightning general's sword strike was extremely clear in the air, but that was not the point.

The key point is the extremely dilapidated and ruined Changkong City...

It's... the world that's wrong.

In the end, they forcibly brought Kiana aboard the Hyperion.

Mei naturally had to be checked before she could get on board, but surprisingly... after the checkup, her energy was very stable.

It's just that they all flowed in one direction.

Seeing that there was no way to hide it, Mei could only take it out of her arms.

It is a... dim gem, simple in style but not simple in function.

"Did she give this to you?"

Theresa picked up the gem and said with some surprise.

"……Yes."

"It should be a good thing. Anyway, take it. At least this way... I won't have to restrict you."

The crack in Changkong City couldn't help but emerge in Theresa's mind. The thing she took out should be something that can help Miss Mei.

Although it should be put away for research, but... that would be a bit too much.

Furthermore, the crack was clearly visible below, and purple light would occasionally emerge...

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

Chapter 24 He hasn’t gotten in the car yet!

The problem with Mei was not very serious, Theresa dealt with it quickly, but with her niece Kiana... she could only try her best.

However... she herself has not been able to get over Cecilia's departure, so it is a bit unconvincing for her to convince Kiana.

But as Kiana's aunt, this is what she should do.

After calming herself down, she pushed open the door to Kiana's room.

"Kiana..."

Theresa walked into the room. The rooms on the ship were naturally very simple, but they still had basic amenities like a bed, chairs, and a table.

Kiana sat on the chair, put the pot on the table, and stared at it in a daze.

She knew those were the belongings of Kiana's friend, Ying, the only ones left.

Death is the most painful physical torture, and memories... are the most painful mental torture. Seeing things that make you sad is even more tormenting.

"I've already introduced myself before. Your mother and I are good sisters, so I can be considered your relative. You can tell me anything sad you have!"

Theresa pretended to be a reliable adult and struck a powerful pose.

But Kiana didn't look back.

Moreover, Theresa, who is small and looks like a little girl, does not look powerful at all when she does this pose. Instead, she looks... cute.

"She chose to let you live. I think... this means you are very important to her. So your friends definitely don't want you to be sad because of this, right?"

Theresa said softly that she chose to start with her friends.

"……Correct."

Kiana finally nodded and started speaking, but even though it was just a short word, one could still clearly hear the crying tone in her voice.

Even without seeing her face, Theresa could guess that her eyes must have been red from crying.

For Kiana... this is probably the first time, the first time she saw the person she was most familiar with sacrifice in front of her.

And there is no place to vent, so I can only hold the pain in myself.

It's hard for this child.

"So, carrying the wishes of others, you have to be more courageous, right? If nothing else, how about seeing more of the world on her behalf?"

After all, Theresa has been in Tianming for a long time, so the only way to persuade people is to carry the burden.

"……I see."

Kiana agreed.

Although I don’t know if he is just saying it or really knows it, but at least it can guarantee that he will not commit suicide for love (not really).

"Next, you will come with us to my academy! If you need any help, just ask me for help!"

Now that the missing Kiana has been caught, Theresa will no longer let her wander around.

"But before that, we have to search for survivors. Kiana, have you seen any survivors?"

"...I've seen one. Her name is Walnut."

Kiana looked at the Dust Song Pot and calmed herself down. After hearing what Theresa said, she finally realized that she couldn't go on like this.

But...it's still a little sad...

She just wants to be quiet now...

"One, Kurumi...what are her characteristics?"

Although Theresa just asked casually, she didn't expect to hear that Kiana had met someone else.

"...wearing Shenzhou clothing and an ill-fitting hat... and..."

Thinking of Kurumi, Kiana couldn't help but think of Kurumi knowing Ying.

She couldn't imagine what would become of that cheerful girl if Kurumi knew that Ying had sacrificed herself for her.

"What else?"

"On its back, there is... a red gem."

Sighing, Kiana explained the situation, which she would have to face eventually.

"Gemstone... uh, is it one of those round gemstones? Wait a minute!"

Theresa suddenly thought of the one in Mei's hand. She quickly asked Kiana to wait and ran out.

It is naturally not a good idea to let Mei meet Kiana now. Although Kiana is very rational now and knows that it is not Mei's fault, she is still afraid of what might happen.

That's why Theresa ran out to find Mei.

Soon, she pulled Mei over and asked her to wait at the door. She walked in with the gem and handed it to Kiana to see.

"Is it this kind?"

"The dim gem... Could it be that she is also..."

Kiana, who had just cheered up, couldn't help feeling dizzy when she saw this dim gem. She could naturally recognize that this was very similar to the gem behind Walnut.

Except it doesn't glow.

"Ah, I don't know who you're talking about, but it's definitely not her! This is... uh, let me explain it briefly."

After Theresa returned the gem to Mei outside, she briefly told Kiana about the Thunder General.

"That is to say... if I could hold on a little longer... Ying wouldn't..."
