Chapter 99: The Origin of St. Freya Academy
[Kiana practically flies back to the elevator, pressing the button several times, but the elevator shows no sign of starting. She looks up anxiously, as if she can see Cecilia through the ceiling.
"Please forgive me for lying to you, Kiana."
Cecilia's communication comes through, striking Kiana like a thunderbolt.
"Lord Cecilia?! Open the elevator quickly!"
The camera cuts to the upper floor. Cecilia just gently shakes her head, her eyes extremely gentle. She softly instructs Kiana to stay in the safe house. Even if the Honkai fission bomb destroys the Babylon Lab, it won't harm her.
Cecilia wants to go defeat the Herrscher alone.
Kiana clearly disagrees, but the communication has already been cut by Cecilia.
The next moment, Kiana picks up an elevator keycard near the elevator.]
A very strange plot progression. It was as if the elevator key had suddenly appeared, or as if it had been specially prepared for Kiana. This quickly caught the attention of some people.
However, those who knew the plot all silently kept their mouths shut, including Kiana herself.
[By the time Kiana takes the elevator to the upper floor, Cecilia has already died in battle. Amidst the playful taunts of the Second Herrscher, Kiana opens her eyes again, only to find herself back in front of the elevator in the safe house.]
"The person behind the scenes wants Kiana to save Cecilia?" MEI says, looking at the development of the movie's plot, overthrowing her initial assumption.
MEI had initially thought that the plan was to have Cecilia die in front of Kiana, causing Kiana to have a mental breakdown and be possessed by the virtual Sirin, or to have the Core of the Void injected into her by Otto.
"It's not that simple," Mobius's attention gradually shifts from Yaqing to the movie. "If all that was needed was to save Cecilia, then this whole long segment of the plot would have no forward momentum."
Mobius seems to have thought of something.
MEI sees Mobius's expression and understands a little. "How terrifying."
Kevin scratches his head, not understanding.
"MEI, what are you talking about? What's terrifying? This movie isn't scary at all."
"...It's nothing."
[Realizing what is happening, Kiana has no time to think. The elevator is too slow. Kiana finds a small passage under a bed in a room in the safe house and passes through the tunnel to get outside the laboratory.
Just as the Second Herrscher is about to kill Cecilia, Kiana finally arrives and fires a cold shot at the Second Herrscher from behind. Cecilia seizes this opportunity and stabs the Abyss Flower into the Second Herrscher's body.
"Damn you!! Just you wait!"
The Second Herrscher disappears.
"She escaped..." Cecilia breathes a sigh of relief.]
"No. My thinking has gone into a dead end," MEI gently shakes her head. "I was always assuming the mastermind was Otto, but Sirin could also be influencing this virtual space..."
Sirin doesn't want to kill Cecilia?
Even in a virtual space.
MEI proposes this hypothesis.
In the front row, Theresa is sitting on a soft chair, her little legs dangling, looking very happy. She raises her face and smiles. "Grandpa isn't always doing bad things. He still gave Kiana a chance to save Cecilia."
"With all due respect, Principal," Fu Hua has a different idea. "The Otto in the movie and the real Otto are not the same person. From the plot of the first movie, he is the type of person who would stop at nothing to resurrect his beloved."
"Otto?" Theresa once again looks at Fu Hua with suspicion. Few students at St. Freya Academy call him by his name directly; they usually call him Overseer Otto.
"Ah... hahaha..." Fu Hua laughs awkwardly.
Himeko glances at Fu Hua thoughtfully.
Senti nudges Fu Hua with her elbow and whispers, "Old-timer, didn't you agree..."
Before she can finish her sentence, her mouth is covered by Fu Hua.
["Lord Cecilia, please let me fight with you!"
"Kiana, it's dangerous here. Go back to the safe house quickly."
The two hold their own opinions and cannot persuade each other. It's not until Kiana says that her dad once told her to "give everything to protect the one you love most" that Cecilia is successfully persuaded. It's just...
"Kiana... I'm only 24! Don't call me Mom, call me Big Sister! Mmm, got it?"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Don't pinch me!"
The two follow the tracks of the Second Herrscher together. In the laboratory, they are ambushed. After finishing the battle, Cecilia looks at the green-water-filled culture tanks on all four sides of the corridor.
"Those 'doctors', in order to enhance their Honkai energy resistance, took away their emotions and memories, turning them into puppets who only know how to obey orders and fight."
Cecilia absolutely does not approve of such behavior. In her eyes, what's the difference between this and killing them?
And at this moment, Kiana sees an empty test tube on the empty ground nearby, with the number written on it: 051 Sirin.]
Just as the audience is immersed in the heartwarming interaction between Kiana and Cecilia, the style suddenly changes, revealing the darkness of the Babylon Lab. And that empty test tube...
"As expected, it's Sirin..."
"So the diary from before was Sirin's memory..."
Sirin notices the pitying gazes from those around her.
A chill runs down her spine.
She's not the Sirin in the movie.
Besides, she has a wonderful family, loving parents, a strict older sister, a lazy little sister, and a very annoying uncle.
[Looking at the number on the empty test tube, Cecilia learns that the Second Herrscher was also a victim of the Tower of Babylon. So she begins to tell Kiana about her own dream.
She wants to establish an academy to accommodate all the children in the world who have Honkai energy resistance. Whether they are Valkyries or the children from the Babylon Lab, they should all grow up like ordinary people, not become sacrifices of war.
"We must never let the tragedy in this tower happen again!"
Cecilia extends her hand to Kiana.
"So, if you can, are you willing to help me realize this dream together?"
Kiana nods vigorously.
"That's great! Then we have to first consider where the academy should be built. I heard there's a very beautiful little island in the Far East..."]
"???" Theresa is completely bewildered.
"So the Principal established St. Freya Academy because it was Mom's dream..."
"What an admirable friendship."
"Principal, I'm willing to give you my treasured game collection."
Listening to the words of the three little ones, Theresa's little face turns red.
"Slander! This is slander against me!" Theresa explains, "My starting the academy was one of the sectors I'm in charge of at the Schicksal organization. Although Cecilia also really wanted to come and teach, but..."
