Chapter 21 Theresa: I'm your aunt!
"You bastard."
Himeko got up and vigorously rubbed his head.
"You're not that old, but you think about a lot. What else can you do at your age if you're not in love?"
"Let's destroy it!"
"That's something for us to do, it's not your turn to be kids."
Chen Feng slapped Himeko's hand away and casually said, "After the Honkai descends, it doesn't matter if you're a child or not, you still have to be prepared. Speaking of which, can you tell me about St. Freya Academy now? Gossiping about me all the time isn't a good thing."
Himeko shook her head with a helpless smile upon hearing this.
"You silly child... Alright, since everyone's here, I'll tell you all at once."
"Is everyone here?"
Chen Feng was taken aback upon hearing this and looked up at Ji Zi with a puzzled expression.
Himeko smiled and turned to look at the doorway. "Alright, come out now. You've been eavesdropping for so long, it's time to hear some serious business."
As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them awkwardly walked out from the corner.
Kiana walked at the front, a polite but awkward smile on her face, her eyes darting around, but she didn't dare to look at Chen Feng and Himeko.
"Haha... Himeko-sensei, what a coincidence..."
"What's so clever about it? Your hair was showing when you hid it."
"...I'll be more careful next time."
Kiana muttered something under her breath, and was gently nudged by Bronya behind her, obediently sitting down in the chair next to Chen Feng.
Mei walked behind Kiana, her head down the whole time, her ears so red they looked like they were about to bleed.
From the moment she entered until she sat down, she never once made eye contact with Chen Feng.
It wasn't that she didn't want to, but every time she almost saw it, her heart would beat too fast, and she was afraid she would give herself away.
And she had just heard it all; it was really embarrassing...
Bronya walked at the back, expressionless, her steps steady.
She sat down quietly next to Mei, as if she hadn't been among those who had been eavesdropping.
After Kiana sat down, she secretly glanced at Chen Feng and, finding him looking at her, immediately looked away guiltily.
"What are you looking at! I'm just passing by!"
"...Why would it take you this long to just pass by?"
"Mind your own business!"
Chen Feng didn't say anything more, but the corners of his mouth curved slightly.
Himeko looked at the group of people, smiled, shook her head, and then cleared her throat.
"Alright, everyone's here. Now I'll tell you about St. Freya—"
……
The future Kiana leans against the wall, her gaze fixed on the clouds passing by outside the window.
Her expression was calm, but her eyes held an indescribable longing.
St. Freya...
It's been a long time since I've been back.
[The Hyperion Arrives at St. Freya]
The warship slowly descended.
The hatch opened, and sunlight streamed in, carrying the scent of grass and wind.
Himeko was standing by the cabin door, just about to introduce herself to the group, when a loli-like voice interrupted her.
"Himeko!!!"
Himeko sighed and turned her head to look. She saw a small white figure rushing towards her from a distance. The speed was so fast that Kiana subconsciously took a half step back.
"You acted on your own again! You went to Changkong City alone again! Do you know how worried I was?!"
Theresa Apocalypse stood in front of Himeko, tilting her head back and glaring angrily at Himeko, who was several heads taller than her.
"And another thing! You actually brought him back to the academy without even telling me beforehand! I'm the headmaster, for goodness' sake!"
Himeko turned her head to the side, picked at her ear, and looked completely indifferent.
"First of all, you approved this task. Secondly, I sent you their information. Were you looking at comics again and not checking the information I sent you?"
"No!!"
Theresa's voice was loud, but her eyes darted around nervously.
Himeko glanced at her and smiled helplessly, but she didn't expose her directly.
"Then continue explaining, I'll take my men in first."
"Himeko!!!"
Himeko walked into the academy without looking back, leaving Theresa alone, stomping her feet in anger.
Theresa took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
Then she turned around and looked at the four people behind Himeko.
The first thing I noticed was that striking head of long, silver-white hair.
"Kiana?"
Theresa's tone suddenly changed, from angrily to cautiously probing.
Kiana paused for a moment, then blinked.
"...Do you know me?"
Theresa jogged up to Kiana, looked up at the face that resembled Cecilia's, her gaze complex.
"Of course I know you..."
"My name is Theresa Apocalypse, and I am the headmistress of St. Freya Academy."
She paused as if hesitating about something, but finally spoke up.
"It's also your... period."
Kiana: ...
Kiana: !!!
Her eyes widened, and she turned to look at Chen Feng, her face clearly saying, "What is she saying? I don't understand."
Chen Feng silently looked away.
It's no use looking at me. This is a matter between your own family members. I'm not part of your family.
"I know you want to know where your bastard dad went, but settle down here for now, and I'll help you find him."
After comforting Kiana, Theresa looked at Mei and Bronya, nodding and greeting them one by one.
Then, her gaze fell on Chen Feng.
Theresa's expression turned puzzled, then slowly changed into one of confusion.
She stared at Chen Feng for several seconds, then turned to look at Ji Zi, who had already walked away, before turning back again.
"...Himeko didn't tell me there was a boy involved."
Her tone was somewhat subtle.
"St. Freya is a Valkyrie Academy, and has never admitted any boys..."
She looked Chen Feng up and down as if he were some rare species.
"You're that... Chen Feng?"
Chen Feng nodded.
Theresa's expression became even more conflicted.
She opened her mouth and then closed it again, finally sighing as if she had made some important decision.
"...Come in first."
She turned and walked into the school, but after taking two steps, she turned back.
"But I can't guarantee you'll have a relaxing time here."
"After all, you're the first male student. The girls in the academy will probably give you more headaches than the Honkai Beasts."
Chen Feng paused for a moment.
"...Can I request to sleep on the bridge?"
"no."
"..."
Kiana burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, Chen Feng, you've finally met your match!"
Chen Feng glanced at her.
"What are you laughing at? You can't escape either."
Kiana's laughter stopped abruptly.
"...What do you mean?"
"Entrance exam".
"..."
Kiana's smile vanished.
